World Record

I share a world record. When I was in high school, our church (First Baptist) sent our youth group to Atlanta. We stayed at a hotel in the downtown area. We trashed the rooms, and we were asked to leave. The next day, we went to Six Flags Over Georgia. When we got to the log ride, we asked the people if we could put more than 4 people in the log, and they said yes. They were probably fired after that, because we crammed 7 people into the log made for 4. We did it by weight, and I was next to last. The heaviest guy was actually under the log at the front, and the lightest guy sat on top of the log on the back. When we went into turns, we had to lean against the turn for fear of flipping over. Some guys were bailing out water, as it was coming over the sides. When we got to the last drop, we realized that if we leaned forward, we would flip over, so we had to lean back. Everyone got a face full of water. After that, the park put up a sign saying no more than 4 to a log. They told us no one had ever done 7 before. World record. Too bad no one from Guinness was around.
