Indigenous people eons ago: "Yeah, so avoid those kinds of waters, it'll kill you" Some Austrian: "Rapids go brrrrrrrr!" Nicely done video Lex, I'm not into whitewater myself, but you manage to make great stories that I'll always listen to. :D P.S.

I haven't come across other RUclipsrs telling stories like this. I'm a huge fan of history and biographical stories like this make history fun and are usually something that non-history nerds enjoy also.
THE ALMOST PERFECT MURDER Down in the corner of Austria near Salzburg are the Lammarofen and Salzachofen. The German word "ofen" literally means oven but here translates to "a gorge". The Lammarofen is a small tight swirly run which will still get the best paddlers edgy and nervous. The Salzachofen is a large swirly run which can still get the best paddlers nervous and edgy. They were, however, first run back in the 1950's in fold boats. The Salzachofen was also the scene of a near perfect murder. The local paddlers had been eyeing the two stretches as a possible run but no one had plucked up the courage to attempt either of them. The local doctor and his wife set out one day to paddle the Salzach and put in some way upstream of the Salzachofen and paddled down to the take-out just above the "ofen". Here he pushed his wife in and then paddled down to the other end of the gorge and rescued his wife's body. His idea was to claim that his wife, also a noted keen kayak paddler, had fallen in on their attempt and drowned. Unfortunately the push was seen by another local paddler.

For those unfamiliar with roller coaster units;
16' = between 4.88 m and 5 m
21" = between 0.53 m and 0.54 m
