Horror moment jet ski kills one after smashing into tubers on river | The Sun
ONE person has died and another has been injured following a horrific jet ski incident on a Russian river.
Shocking footage shows the moment the victims collided with a jet ski as their doughnut shaped inflatable was towed by a motor boat on the Irtysh River in Omsk, Russia.
The pair were filmed laughing and shouting as they bucked around in the waves at high speeds on Sunday, before the jet ski rammed into them.
The video – filmed from the motor boat – shows one of the riders, believed to be 22 years old, in the moments before he is sent flying through the air.
The other – more shielded from the impact – survived but was injured in the collision, local media reports.
Police say the jet ski pilot fled instantly and has not yet been traced.

Investigators have already studied the crime scene and seized the motor boat and doughnut ring.
Police have interviewed the boat pilot and witnesses.
The tragic incident comes roughly a year after a woman shared the terrifying moment a jet ski spray shot up inside her and devastated her organs.
