Barefoot waterskier uses his one-legged friend as a ROPE!!!

This is a moment a man went barefoot waterskiing - using his friend as the rope. His friend is seen tightly gripping a pole attached to the boat as the vessel starts moving in Chicago. Meanwhile, he is seen grabbing onto his friend's left leg. 'You guys ready?' someone aboard the board is heard asking just before the boat begins to move. The man is seen successfully skiing on the water's surface for several seconds. But his friend then loses his grip on the pole. The pair are seen falling into the water as the boat continues to speed forwards shortly before the 31-second clip ends.
