Did people actually fall for this commercial? Wow, that was not good at all.

I love how they act like they're going skydiving or hang gliding with the whole 'wake up at the crack of dawn and gear up' bit. Guys, you're going to the lake to take turns jumping in the water. You can wait until the sun comes out - or would that ruin the reflection you need to keep that underwater ramp hidden?

Its strange how the max distance they all seem to go is the same unless of course they were running on something 1/2 foot underneath the water, then it would be completely logical.

May I be the first to burst the bubble? Nobody and I mean nobody can "walk" on water...including our wonderful buddy Jesus Christ Superstar.

I thought it was a farce. I can't believe these guys are seriously trying to fool people. You can clearly see their feet hit something solid about 6 inches below the water.

It's on the interwebs, so it has to be true.

Faked or not they still did a good job with it and it was an entertaining watch.

I was leaning towards fake, but I only watched it for like 20 seconds and without sound.

At 0.48 seconds you see the guy slip off something as well.

Not that I'm trying to prove this isn't totally real or anything though.

Somewhere, I watched a japanese tv show, where they walked on a liquid. It was contained in some sort of tub, though.

On those hi-tek shoes that are completely waterproofed...wouldn't they also hold all of your sweat in? Your feet could be as wet on the inside as the wetness outside that your trying to protect against. Maybe I'm missing something, but I could just put plastic bags on my feet inside the shoe for the same waterproofing effect.

The video hit 'Ludacris Speed' with the 'Jet-ski System'.

It has to be fake. Nobody would wear that hat the guy is wearing at the begining of the video.

What is wrong with some of you guys? Jesus. Take things a little too seriously? I thought it was a very well done video.
