It's obvious they weren't going for any record, except maybe be the first ones to do this at that location...
What amazed me is the pool isn't big, in fact, there's a log jamb and a cave they had to miss... The line they had to take to make it was beyond tight. In the summer time that fall is just a trickle, it's only raging now because of all the winter rains.
