Sometimes the best intentions..Now the rest of the story. While running in the river at about 30, into a 20 mph headwind, he decided to jump ship (guess he smelled hard ground). He made it up about 10 feet in the air and headed directly toward an island. It looked like he lost altitude and may have fallen a little short in shallow water. Maybe he stayed afloat long enough to drift ashore.
