California man takes jet ski for a spin on flooded Fullerton street
Published in Weird News
FULLERTON, Calif. (UPI) -- A California man took advantage of flooding in his neighborhood to fulfill a longtime dream: riding his jet ski up the street.
Mark Gomez wrote in a Facebook post that he and his brother, Philip Gomez, had been "waiting for the rainy day stars to align" so he could ride his jet ski up their Fullerton street -- a stunt he previously attempted without success.
Gomez said he made two attempts at the stunt Sunday.
"First attempt was filmed from the bottom of the hill, I made it all the way up my street, turned right and had to stop because of a parked car blocking my river!" he wrote. This second attempt got almost as far until I clipped the curb which sent me into the shallow spot toward a soft abrupt stop, but thankfully my chin cushioned the blow haha. Such a rad home experience.
