You’ve probably been warned Jet Skis can be dangerous. However, you probably didn’t imagine this happening. A woman was reportedly killed after experiencing a ‘genital rupture’ when she fell off a fast moving Jet Ski.
According to Daily Mail, the fall led to severe wounds which she passed away from the following day.
Woman Suffers Genital Rupture After Falling Off Jet Ski
Elena Spiryakova, from Russia, was rushed to the hospital after the horrific fall but doctors were unable to save her life. Now, her husband, Oleg, is facing criminal charges for ‘causing death by negligence,’ per Daily Mail.
According to reports, the speed and acceleration of the Jet Ski caused Elena to be hit in the genitals by a ‘water hammer,’ Russian news outlet Baza reports.
Daily Mail says Elena was riding on the back of the Jet Ski Oleg was driving on a river that flows into the Volga River in Samara.
According to Daily Mail, the report stated, “After another turn, the woman could not stay on the jet ski and fell into the water, and at that moment her husband ‘hit the gas.'”
That’s when she suffered what’s described as a ‘hydraulic injury.’ Her family has confirmed that a criminal case has been started to look into her death.
Now, I’ve heard Jet Skis can be dangerous. However, I never thought they could lead to a ‘genital rupture.’ That doesn’t sound pleasant at all. No helmet can save you from a genital rupture.
There’s a lot to be scared of on a Jet Ski. What’s in the water if I fall off? Could there be a shark? What if I run into somebody? Or, what happens if I run out of gas? All of those could be dangerous. However, I’d also probably rather have all of those happen than suffer a genital rupture.

2 Florida Locations Have the Bluest Water in America
Travel and Leisure recently published a report that details 10 of the most stunning bodies of water in country. From sunny ocean spots, to lakes, to waterfalls these locations are simply breathtaking. Included in the list were two Florida locations that have the bluest water in America.
Dry Tortugas National Park
This is one of the most unique spots in the country. Dry Tortugas National Park lies west of Key West, Florida in the Gulf of Mexico. It is made up of seven small islands and that are surrounded by coral reef. The park enclosed is roughly 47,000 acres. To arrive here, you must either take a boat or a seaplane. Therefore, it is not accessible by car.
Describing its blue waters, Travel and Leisure says, “Most of it is placid, turquoise, and filled with colorful marine life, making for some of the best snorkeling in the Sunshine State.”
Devil’s Den
Another destination recognized in the report was Devil’s Den. This spring is situated in Willston, about 20 miles south of Gainesville. It is a natural cave that is privately owned. The water has been known to consistently register around 72 degrees regardless of season. One of its main attractions is scuba diving. In fact, it is also a scuba training center where diving is available seven days a week. However, you must have proper certification as it the water has a maximum depth of 54 feet. Their are four lodging cabins at Devil’s Den. The property contains 120 feet of surface diameter.
Also mentioned on Travel and Leisure’s list was Crater Lake in Oregon, Jenny Lake in Wyoming, and Tenaya Lake and Lake Tahoe in California. Havasu Falls in Arizona was the spotlighted waterfall. Finally, as for beaches with the brightest blues, Flamenco Beach in Puerto Rico and Lanikai Beach in Hawaii were among the best.
These two Florida locations that have the bluest water in America were the only east coast spots to make this feature.

That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.
