That pic gives you chills , serious impact



This is my fear in the tournaments that let you leave at some point before daylight and wait for start times.

RIP to the guy and condolences to his loved ones

I don't run anywhere at night that I didn't recently run during the day, and I certainly don't run anywhere near...or under...a bridge. None of my GPS trails that I depend on at night are anywhere near dams, boat docks, bridges, timber, or other hazards. Still, I frequently hit buoys and other landmarks with my spotlight just to be sure I am where I think I am.

I have run Palestine at night numerous times, but I get off pad and idle when I get within 100-150 yards of the bridges.

I'm not trying to criticize the man who lost his life, just saying how I do things.

Unfortunate but people that do this kind of stupid stuff and get killed are the reason why we have warning labels on everything....

Never been on that lake but it almost looks like he didn’t realize where he was at.
Looks like a direct hit as if he didn’t expect anything like that to happen.

RIP

I still wonder if something mechanical happened, like steering failure.
