Possibly Jim's activities didn't raise your insurance rates...maybe your false statements did???
Simple observation. Call me the a$$clown police.

Yet. If you keep up those actions it won't be a matter of if but when. I don't consider taking both hands off the wheel at over 100 m.p.h. to slap high fives while your foot is pushing the throttles to be very safe. But that is just my opinion. I also noticed that the video was removed from youtube....interesting.
The big difference is I was wearing a Lifeline jacket in the picture with my hands on the wheel and throttles.

That picture was taken for a photo shoot in Tahoe when we were only driving about 1/2 a mile at a max speed of 45 m.p.h. and you're right we didn't have our Lifelines on. It was also taken three years ago and since then I have made lifevests mandatory when we are on plane. ANd if you look closely I have one hand on the wheel and one on the throttles. I think lifevests are a personal choice but letting go of the wheel at over 100 m.p.h. is just nuts.
I hope everyone has a pleasant Thanksgiving.
