A sad event just a few miles from here, by ICW:

There are more parasailing accidents than people might think.
These women were reported to be 56 and 60 years old.
Every time I see that parasailing I think a bit about the physics of
what I'm seeing and all the things that can go wrong.
Guess I'm just a big chicken, but I never wanted to do it, and never
wanted my wife or kids being towed up there either.
But maybe I just didn't want to pay for it.

To make matters worse...if you survive, I wonder what you could expect by
suing the operators in some of the Caribbean countries?
