Would you do this?

I'm thinking long and hard and I think...yes!

Oh my goodness I would love to do this.

I am an avid kayaker, and would paddle to shore as fast as I could.  Scary !

I don’t think I could do it. Maybe in my much younger days?

In theory, it would be awesome. In reality, that's a wild animal and I'm not jumping in the water with it.

IMO, that was pretty foolish of her.  Things could have turned terribly bad in a matter of seconds.

What an awesome experience! I hope I would have the guts to do it, if I was given the opportunity, which in my reality will probably never happen.

Did anyone see the video that came up immediately after this one?  A lone kayaker out in the middle of the ocean, a large shark (maybe a great white), knocked the person off and was pulling the kayak through the water, leaving the person stranded.  Someone called for help and the person was eventually rescued, but it was several minutes that they were helpless.
