Looked to me like he jumped in the boat without too much harm.

Insurance Agent:  So what sank your sailboat?

Sailboat owner:  A motorcycle.

Insurance Agent:  WTF?

Sailboat owner:  That's what I said too!

As a sail boat owner, that is very sad to see...

From http://www.grindtv.com/outdoor/blog/439 … +sailboat/

"A reporter for Moto Journal, a French publication, is becoming famous for all the wrong reasons. The motorcycle journalist, named Lolo, not only crashed his Yamaha while being videotaped during a waterfront ride, he tumbled off a dock and landed in a sailboat 10-15 feet below.

"Presumably, only his pride was injured because Moto Journal went public with the incident by posting the accompanying video, perhaps assuming (correctly) that it'd go viral. "

He misjudged his bike's width and snagged a saddlebag on one of those bollards.  An easy mistake to make, since it was probably a test bike he wasn't familiar with.

If it hadn't happened on a narrow dock, it would have been less amusing.

Hmmm.   Sound is perfect, and video is perfect.  This seems like a set up.

I'm seeing the same link (twice).  Is that intentional?

No, it's not.  Thanks for catching that. 

This is the correct link:
