My Near Death Experience

Every once in a while my friends and I like to go tubing behind my small boat with a very big engine. Where I live there is a ocean like pond called Duck Pond which is right at the top of my canal. M
y dads friend that live in Texas leaves his boat at my dock and he has a tube that can hold 3 people and fly out of the water. My boat is kinda small but it has a big engine on the back so it goes pretty fast it has a total speed of 70 mph. We got the boat ready and two of my friends jumped on the tube and we headed out, we got to the top of the canal and it was kinda windy so we all knew that the tube would probably fly out the water. Later on that day we all found out that we were right about the tube flying, just my friend was on the tube and he wanted to go through snake trail which was a small cut between two big Mangrove bushes. We took the first turn and everything went fine but when we took the next turn the tube took flight and went upside down and my friend was still holding on, and a couple seconds later my friend was about ten feet in the bush and had suck about three in the depths of the Mangrove. It took us about ten minutes just to find him and about twenty to get him out. We got him out eventually and his back was covered in blood and deep scrapes.We knew what was going to happen but like always we don't care until it happens.
