Not sure what you find wrong with that. If it were fake because of the jetski you would see those guys skidding into the water, not running (or skimming if you will) like they are. Look up barefooting if you don't believe me.
The only way this could be fake is
A)CG
B)A walkway underneath the water.
The one question i have, though, is how much salt is in that lake. That wouldn't be too hard in a body of water like the Dead Sea.

I'd say it was fake if that one dude didn't fall in like 2 steps in.
Pretty cool bro.

Yes, after x amount of steps, he falls straight into the water and he doesn't go through the motion of trying another step. His body goes into falling mode immediately.

Everyone, just skip directly to the end.. watch the slow mo.. look at the impact of his leg (on something obviously more solid than water), also the strange wake of the water around his steps and ahead of him..
Still a funny/interesting 'spoof-sport'. (I made that word up?)

The running might not be fake but the idea sure seems like it..Maybe some kind of ad for something.
How does a jetski = faster running? With their logic I can get pulled by a car and run faster..but..
no
=\

Your legs can keep up at a higher velocity than they can push you. For instance, when you run downhill, as long as you can keep your legs moving one after another you can stay on your feet. Same thing with being pulled behind a jetski.

When you run downhill your center of gravity changes place and you fall forward onto your face. It just seems silly to me to use a jetski to make you run 'faster' when it really just throws off your balance completely =\

Depends on how hard the jetski goes lol...I'm sure at a low speed you might benefit but when it goes harder you'll just be swept of your feet.
Also AFAIK there is no lake with more salt/liter or what ever the term is than the Dead Sea.

what a load of garbage. 180lb men running 10 feet across the water? You'd sink the moment you take that first step. Doesn't take high school physics to see that theres something wrong with the picture.

It might be fake but it was filmed in PORTUGAL!
THATS RIGHT

Only reason it looks fake, is because his foot is a little underwater, and he looks like he is falling off land in the end. Also, when he falls two steps in, he could have done it on a shorter dock, different angle, etc.
