'Hurricane' Fay Kite Surfer Kevin Kearney Video, In Critical Condition
by Mitch Marconi


After deciding that it would be a good idea to test Mother Nature's patience, Kevin Kearney was whipped into a building by 'Hurricane' Fay's winds.

Emergency workers rushed to the scene where Kevin laid on the ground after slamming into the side of a building - and he is now listed in critical condition.

So how was he lifted into the air before being swung into the building? He was 'kite surfing' - which is, for obvious reasons, extremely dangerous in Tropical Storm weather.

You think he would've let go when he hit the beach, I guess he thought it was fun or something.

The kite is connected to a harness, basically he was along for the ride.
