If you need to get off a burning oil rig in a hurry with 60 friends, this would be my choice...

You would certainly want to have your trays in the upright position and your seatbelt fastened.

Other than the 'burning oil rig' part, it looks like it would be a ton of fun! I was surprised at how much forward momentum it generated.

They serve drinks before the ride.

I have been asked if the seats face the rear... I cannot tell from the video but, that would make sense, like the old MATS recip aircraft in the 60's.

Once in the water though, you'd better be strapped in or your hitting the ceiling when that thing surfaces.

I think it is cool that the momentum is carrying the boat away from platform at a pretty significant rate. Makes sense that you want some distance quickly!

Next thing you know it will be launched by bungee chords, like a sling shot. Uh, if that happens, can I use this as documented evidence? Lol
