The class 4 I went over was wild enough. We were in a really large raft, our family of 6 on one end, and another family sitting on the other end, with a raised guide with long paddles in the middle. In the series of photos, we have one photo in which you cannot see the front half of the raft, or any part of anyone in the front. In the next photo, you can only see upper bodies of people, and none of the raft. We managed to snap the 1/2" or so rope that we were hanging onto, but somehow, we all stayed on the raft.
