During a forage with friends to a popular beach resort to participate
in some parasailing activities (a recreation that involves being towed
by a boat while harnessed to a parachute) our hero elected to do
something rather ill-advised. None of his companions suspected John's
intentions as he was flawlessly lifted into the air from the beach as
the boat pulling him sped away from the water's edge. As John's
parachute blossomed open wide and he ascended into the air, eventually
bringing him up to a height of about 200 feet above the ocean waves,
our daring sportster suddenly made a move that shocked his friends on
the boat and hundreds of onlookers on the beach. As John leveled off
at maximum height witnesses noticed him wave to the crowd and then
begin tugging at the lines connected to his parachute harness.
Apparently, good old John had the wild idea of releasing himself from
the tow line with the intention that he'd then float free supported by
his parachute and descend softly onto the sandy beach where he could
impress the bikini-clad women watching him. However, John's plan
didn't go accordingly. As he moved to free himself from the tow line
connected to the boat he errored - greatly. Instead, the brave
parasailer disconnected himself from the very parachute that supported
him so high above. Amateur video taken from the beach and boat caught
Johnny at the moment he slipped neatly out of the parachute harness and
began his gallant descent toward the shallow beach waters below. John,
at once realizing his predicament, and like every good cartoon
character does when they are confronted with a similar situation, began
flapping his arms rapidly in a vane attempt to stay airborne. Seagulls
passing by at his altitude were bewildered to see the bizarre display
by the featherless mammal. A few short seconds later flightless John,
now reduced to a projectile, impacted the 3 foot deep lapping waves
below. The cameras recorded the muddy splash and the sudden onrush of
beachgoers toward the water's edge. Lifeguards also arrived at the
scene to find our friend firmly imbedded up to his waste in the sand,
his trunk and head completely submerged underwater. It took several
frantic moments to extract John from the beach's grip and upon finally
being freed, was dragged to dry land where paramedics arrived shortly
after. The valiant airsurfer suffered two shattered legs, multiple
broken ribs, a concussion, various internal injuries and, needless to
say, was deemed unfit to fly again....

Huh?
What a waste.

Are you sure they were seagulls and not winged rats or capybaras?
arlo
A simple question like that, and you cannot answer?
Sorry, but that will just not do!

They're seagulls.
I've been to Netherlands. The seagulls you have there have big wings and fly
around. They don't look like New Jersey seagulls.
