Back when my sister was a teenager she learned to water ski. One day my Dad decided he wanted to try to ski. So he told my Mom when he said OK to ease the boat forward to get the rope tight and when he was ready he would yell “GO!” and she was to open the throttle.
Dad said OK, Mom opened the throttle all the way, the rope pulled taut and snapped, and almost pulled Dad’s shoulders out of the sockets.
Dad never did learn to water ski.
