@@taiyoctopus2958 probably like watching a snowboarrder straight air an 80' jump and land it easily. looks simple because of how good they are at it but the amount of awareness and understanding you need to be able to perform in such a setting is not something your average human can pull off. you have to set your line, your speed, your angle, the weight of your stroke, your balance/centre of gravity, timing on when to tuck, tuck properly to protect your shoudlers, have the ability to roll the boat in an extremely wide range of situations at high speeds, ferry against currents upstream in a way where your line setup is still possible. the list goes on. theres a lot more that goes into it than just plop off the cliff and fall off the drop and say yay at the bottom. i have been doing this for 11 years and have fractured vertebrae in my back, shattered my leg, broken my nose, and had multiple shoulder/rib injuries all just from impacts on waterfalls. some significantly smaller than this one. i actually remember hurting my shoulder in this video and took a week off of paddling. that doesnt account for the other injuries i have had from other styles of rapids or hitting rocks and things like that. if someone really wants to get into something like this they can start with a Swiftwater rescue course and try to find a local paddling club to get started and begin working their way up! or hit me up and ill try to point you int he right direction because it would be cool to see more people getting stoked on kayaking. (this comment is not aimed at you at all just more of an information piece for those who think at first glance they could easily do this)
yeah high level whitewater kayaking is one, if not the most dangerous of all the extreme sports. all of the guys i used to paddle with knew someone who had died. i knew a dude who watched his friend get ragdolled and drown and came back and worked a tour the next day.
That is a very interesting shape that waterfall carved through that rock! Definitely a unique drop to paddle: thank you for sharing! (And no, I wouldn't run it! :-D)
Thanks man! Yeah it looks like an epic canyoneering spot. The gear in the lip was a funny addition to this one for us but it’s easy to miss it when you drop in.
Nice. Recognized it instantly. Went canyoneering there in 2016. I sprained my ankle on the first jump of the day (jumped wrong and hit a rock). Luckily the water was cold enough to keep the swelling down until we completed and exited back to mainland. This spot I think is near the middle of the canyon. I have photos of some of my crazier friends climbing up to and jumping off from that keyhole rock. 👌 cool kayak route. Stay safe, have fun!
The amount of things you have to keep track of and do all at the same time in this video is insane. There are so many things that can go wrong. I mean, if you even just barely clip something you could get knocked out, because you’re going so fast. Or, if you land the wrong way, you could break your back on impact. Even if the paddle just goes the wrong way, it could pull your shoulder out of the sockets and tear ligament in hand and shoulder. Wow. Just wow. This is just amazing. I’m subbed to your channel, and Dane Jackson’s channel, and you two just amaze me every time I see a video. So much practice, focus, skill, mental toughness, discipline, training, and so on and so forth. It’s a real shame you both don’t have 500k+ subscribers. Such a beautiful sport.
hahaha yeah i was nervous . that piton was not the best start to this but i was stoked on how it panned out! pierce styled it after and got his bow to the right and made it look sweet
What a rush.!! And cool location, wish I had the guts to actually do that... I am down for high adrenaline activities but anything involved with water makes me think twice... The water doesn’t care if we’re having adrenaline filled fun 😂
The camera lens to me makes it look probably scarier than it already is to me. But that place looked very beautiful. A little bit of fantasy come to life.
Damn that is crazy cool!! Did you guys have a pic of it on the day you climbed it? It’d be really cool to see but I get it if there are no shots haha that’s a cool piece of info for this spot I didn’t know about
@@edwardmuggridge6243 Hi Edward, I do actually have some shots from the first ascent. We called it 'Echo Magic' grade 4+ ... Looks about 6+ in a kayak! ping me on linked in - Dan Jackson / Arcteryx...
@@vantandan1347 hey Dan, around four (?) Years ago when the big freeze came we snagged a second (???) Ascent of that pitch and a couple others)! One of the coolest routes in town! Hope it fully forms again. Absolutely insane to watch someone drop it in a Kayak - well done!
@@vantandan1347 It is crazy that your name is Dan Jackson because the GOAT of kayaking is named Dane Jackson. He also makes some of the craziest RUclips videos around.
hahahaha this actually made me laugh out loud!! i had such a bad seal launch i actually couldnt believe it ahaha. what a start to the line🤣 lucky me it didnt actually hurt or mess my boat up at all but i was like "wow that was dumb"
The absolute coolest part of this video is how this tube was naturally created. The falls, at one time, fell over the lip you see above the hole. At some point, there was a crack at the bottom of this river, right before the falls. Water seeped through and over hundreds of thousands years, the crack became this
Everytime I see videos where kayaker do stuff like this, I feel like kayaker are immortal... It's crazy, they will do anything and still be like: Oh that was easy- AND I F*CKING LOVE IT!
Imagine 1000 years ago that water was probably flowing over that rock. Some little divot made by something along the way caused the water to constantly flow in a certain direction until the constant wash of water wore away that hole. Super sick
geology/hydrology is cool! there are other waterfalls around the world that used to be kayaked that have since eroded or caved in in ways that make them unrunnable now. its very interesting stuff but also a little sad to see some great freefall spots disappear hahaha
That looks like a helluva lot of fun, I'd love to do the tunnel but that launch made my anus cringe with anticipation of you busting your skull open on that rock. Bravo, sir.
Haha yeah at first glance it was intimidating but it isn’t really in the way at all. That’s the anchor they use for canyoneering at way lower flows I’m pretty sure
i think a couple of people have played with the idea but i dont think its a smooth slab the whole way down im pretty sure there are some layers or larger eroded cracks. im going to stick to the kayak haha but that would be really cool if it works
Nature is so beautiful, the fact that this place exists and I haven’t heard of makes you know there are so many equally beautiful places out there…
Yep, everywhere I go there’s a beautiful corner where it feels like you’re the first.
Paradise in the hereafter is far better
@@alima.6776 sure if you believe in that. id rather revel in whats before my eyes. no fantasy required.

I was there this summer with ropes to lower this very falls! I cant believe they dragged a kayak up there and dropped it!
Gopros are awesome but they make everything look small and easy. They make me feel like I could drop off a 50' waterfall tunnel.
You probably could if your mind wasn't in the way telling you all the hundreds of things that could go wrong :)
I know because that's me too lol
Well, yes, that's the point. Because if you could drop off a 50' waterfall tunnel, then shouldn't you have a GoPro to capture it?

@@edwardmuggridge6243 it's really impressive. I can't imagine the power and force of that white water
The power water possess is scary. Great job 👍
Yep... water and sediment. Nature's water-jet cutter on steroids.
Kayakers on this level are next level crazy love it man that was dope
U know anyone with the red bull logo on their equipment is crazy xD
yeah high level whitewater kayaking is one, if not the most dangerous of all the extreme sports. all of the guys i used to paddle with knew someone who had died. i knew a dude who watched his friend get ragdolled and drown and came back and worked a tour the next day.

Ahh, Monmouth canyon! We canyoneered that route years ago. Nice work, you nailed that waterfall!

There's other boaters besides Dane, he just has the promoters and his dad owns a kayak company. Check out Michael Ferraro micro Creek first descent.
Wow, I will always cheer for you in Korea I'm looking forward to a great video. Have a nice day.
that was a cool ride! that launch took guts and precision - if not done right a huge head bash! loved that tunnel run! like a water Twilight Zone!
Thank you!
Even the seal launch would make me nervous.
hahaha yeah i was nervous . that piton was not the best start to this but i was stoked on how it panned out! pierce styled it after and got his bow to the right and made it look sweet

This popped up randomly on RUclips, your killing it Ed!💯
Awesome! That’s how kids going through a water park slide feel!
How thrilling!... But you're nuts.
this is so pretty the fact some places like this exist are astonishing
What a rush.!! And cool location, wish I had the guts to actually do that... I am down for high adrenaline activities but anything involved with water makes me think twice... The water doesn’t care if we’re having adrenaline filled fun 😂
This is so beautiful it just makes me speechless
we live in a beautiful world. stoked i could share this little adventure with everyone :)
Video starts at 1:11
1:14 I want to see what's that way , seems like an underworld city entrance
Hahahaha I did not have much interest in seeing what was in the magical dark cave I’m not gonna lie 😂 mind was focused on some other stuff haa
@@edwardmuggridge6243 looked suspiciously like a siphon.
Nothing over to that side, no syphon, no nothing. Been in this pool dozens of times.
I love kayaking and would love to start and maybe end up doing stuff like this one day! Not so sure my body can handle it though. This was a sick drop
God damn, balls of steel
There is WAY too little recognition for this man.
The camera lens to me makes it look probably scarier than it already is to me. But that place looked very beautiful. A little bit of fantasy come to life.
That looks fun
Not disappointed. But was expecting more.
yep... nice to have that cam. my mom introduced me to this run back in the 80's. looks like it hasn't changed at all...
Your mom is a badass!
Lol I think youre mistaken as to where and what this is
As soon as the video started I was like HELL NAW
That is off the hook! You dropped the magic waterfall! We bagged the first ascent of that one way back when it was frozen solid. Nice job EM.
Damn that is crazy cool!! Did you guys have a pic of it on the day you climbed it? It’d be really cool to see but I get it if there are no shots haha that’s a cool piece of info for this spot I didn’t know about

Honestly, the most craziest thing about this video. Is that Seal Launch. I wasn't in the boat. But I still said OUCH! out loud.

River erosion creates some crazy shapes! I can only imagine how many other tunnel waterfalls are hidden throughout the rest of the world
You have our respect!
and you have my gratitude!
How pretty!
that looks super safe. and a great place to take a nap when your helmet slams into protruding rock structures.
So sweet 🔥

That was awesome
That was wild. Very brave.
I haven't wanted to paint in over 5 years, but the area where you launched has my fingers itching
Youre a goddamn champion mate.
Perfection, Deserves a sub
Pretty sure this is Squamish? Also a great swimming spot. Impressive that you hauled your kayaks up there.
looong hike with the boats haha
Takes a special kind of person to see that water flying by and say "Going in!".... I'm not that kind of person
Such a beautiful waterfall

that was it?
*Mountain Bikers referring to Kayakers:* "I fear no man, but that thing... It scares me"

I mean he has a helmet on lol
@@connorcoultas9629 helmet of invincibility haha
In flying we call that feeling, when something "exciting" happens, suckin' up the seat cushion.😁😁😁
This is where they got the inspiration for the log ride at the amusement park!
Just that initial drop looked too scary for me
That was fucking crazy bet it was the sensation of a lifetime
I could do that in my sleep! While I'm dreaming of course 🤣
Crazy, crazy, crazy!
50’?
Surprised the kayak still floated with those giant balls.
That is so nuts....
Video starts at 1:07. You’re welcome.
,,,,cool video keep up the great content.. Thank you…
thanks a ton!
More footage Bro!!!!look so Nice to do!!
wow what an insane waterfall
Your crazy. I love it though
TDG #1 FULLSUPPORT .
Where is this? That waterfall is insane
what a rush!
Real action starts at 1:11
Awesome 👍👍👍
Where is this? So beautiful. I used to whitewater in a canoe!
Awesome! Where is this river located?
so dope......subbed bro
The power of warter is mind blowing i saw a video of a woman pinned under a rock the other night she was screwed if not 4 here frend 👍
I would really like to know... where did you find enough room in that little 'Yak for that pair of Titanium Balls!
Craziest water slide I’ve ever seen
Beast mode
Nice!
Very cool.
Lmao I really thought this was some kind of freak of nature enclosed waterfall.... like a giant waterside. Still neat tho!
Gnarly !!!
you know when they got that redbull sticker on their kayak they about to do some crazy shit 😂😂
Sick!
Where is this?!?!?
That rope going down into the fall looks scary
Haha yeah at first glance it was intimidating but it isn’t really in the way at all. That’s the anchor they use for canyoneering at way lower flows I’m pretty sure
The moment you see a Red Bull logo, you know they have to push it.
Sick drop! 💪 Where is it located? Which river is it a part of?
Skip to 1:26 :)
You have now entered jurassic park
Friend- Wanna do something crazy today?
these guys- Yeah
Friend- Let's drop down a 50ft waterfall with a red bull graphic kayak
That was awesome.
Unfortunately after the scream a sea munster got him and he was never seen again. 😢
Crazy stuff. Could of gone either way.
Pure gold
Google and RUclips should be ashamed of themselves
15 second advert in 102 second video
Cheers have a great day
Could you do it on a c1 without smacking your head?
Probably!
Dude looked like he broke his back on the drop in... damn.
Where was the water going when you first dropped in?
that first ledge looks like a death trap if you flipped stay safe out there.
I'm guessing that this slide could be done w/o a boat just wetsuit & PFD...
i think a couple of people have played with the idea but i dont think its a smooth slab the whole way down im pretty sure there are some layers or larger eroded cracks. im going to stick to the kayak haha but that would be really cool if it works
This is incredibly fucking cool
What waterfall? I hope this goes viral!
hahaha the guys that got the first kayak descent called it squarting siphon falls but it probably has an actual name
@@edwardmuggridge6243 what creek is this?
When you see the red bull logo on any outdoor sport equipment.... You know shits going down
How does one fit such massive balls into the kayak?
