Snowmobiles are pretty rowdy vehicles, and they can even be used as boats— as long as you build up some serious momentum on dry land, then skim over the water's surface and reach more dry land before you lose that head of steam and start to sink. Just don't let up on the throttle, or else.

The first time I saw this maneuver my jaw dropped. It's ballsy, risky, and wow it looks like a lot of fun.

These folks have taken crazy snowmobiling to a new level. For starters, instead of merely skimming across the water they catch some massive air and fly into it. Then... well, all I can say is, I hope you kept watching at least until the one-minute mark.

WOOOO HOOOO! My turn! My turn! My turn!
