Man goes over Niagara Falls

Darwin works in mysterious ways ?

Fixed the spelling of Niagara to avoid reposts because someone couldn't find it using the search (fail #1). While I was at it, I fixed the title to eliminate "naked", since he wasn't naked when he went over (fail #2). I could probably change the link to a story with actual facts rather than misinterpreted 2nd hand facts & a picture of the actual falls, as the BBC is using an archived photo of the American Falls, rather than Horseshoe Falls (Canadian) which the guy went over. (fail #3). But, I'll just leave the original link. 😛 -Anandtech Moderator DrPizza

It's not unprecedented. In the 50s I think, a small boat overturned upstream, and a young boy went over the falls in a PFD. He cam out of it with a broken arm, and some bruises.

Edit:
My tale's mentioned in the story :^D

Only on the American falls. He went over the Canadian side and there's a VERY deep pool at the base there.
