A photographer captured the latest incident as one canoeist slid 300ft down the spillway at Llyn Brianne reservoir in Carmarthenshire, near the borders of Ceredigion and Powys. Welsh Water said the practice was dangerous and such activities were banned at the reservoir. An onlooker said: "I always stop and look anyway and I saw four people ready to do the spillway. "There were a lot of people watching at the top car park. "It looked pretty scary." <http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/shared/img/o.gif> <http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/spl/hi/pop_ups/08/uk_enl_1227010951/html /1.stm> This extreme kayaker was photographed at the weekend at Llyn Brianne <http://news.bbc.co.uk/nol/shared/img/v3/inline_dashed_line.gif> <http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/spl/hi/pop_ups/08/uk_enl_1227010951/html /1.stm> <http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/spl/hi/pop_ups/08/uk_enl_1227010951/html /1.stm> Enlarge Image <http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/spl/hi/pop_ups/08/uk_enl_1227010951/html /1.stm> Llyn Brianne was completed in 1972 and supplies drinking water to a large part of south Wales. The reservoir is up to 272 ft (83m) deep and holds more than 13 billion gallons (60 billion litres) of water. A statement from Welsh Water, the owner of the site, said it "strictly forbids" water-based activities at the reservoir and would take "appropriate action" against anyone in breach of this restriction. "Reservoirs can be dangerous for various reasons and those involved in water sports in inappropriate locations, such as at Llyn Brianne, put themselves and others at unnecessary risk," said a spokesman. Richard Harvey from the Welsh Canoeing Association said he could not comment on the group involved, the locality or the legality of their activity but he did say he was aware the slipway had been used by kayakers for about 20 years. "We encourage people to paddle responsibly and in the realm of the law," he said. "It's very important that kayaking is done at no risk to other people or the environment and that a detailed risk assessment is made before taking to the water. "Enthusiasts also have to be aware of the law and the possible legal restrictions relating to a particular stretch of water. "If they go too far we do not condone it." __._,_.___ Messages in this topic <http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/advracegn/message/2416;_ylc=X3oDMTM1a2 szbGptBF9TAzk3NDkwNTA1BGdycElkAzE0NjU4ODM0BGdycHNwSWQDMTY5MDE2MjM5NgRtc2 dJZAMyNDE2BHNlYwNmdHIEc2xrA3Z0cGMEc3RpbWUDMTIyNzE4MDY4MwR0cGNJZAMyNDE2> (1) Reply (via web post) <http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/advracegn/post;_ylc=X3oDMTJxb210MWozBF 9TAzk3NDkwNTA1BGdycElkAzE0NjU4ODM0BGdycHNwSWQDMTY5MDE2MjM5NgRtc2dJZAMyND E2BHNlYwNmdHIEc2xrA3JwbHkEc3RpbWUDMTIyNzE4MDY4Mw--?act=reply&messageNum= 2416> | Start a new topic <http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/advracegn/post;_ylc=X3oDMTJmNmFtdWhsBF 9TAzk3NDkwNTA1BGdycElkAzE0NjU4ODM0BGdycHNwSWQDMTY5MDE2MjM5NgRzZWMDZnRyBH NsawNudHBjBHN0aW1lAzEyMjcxODA2ODM-> Messages <http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/advracegn/messages;_ylc=X3oDMTJmMzcwOD ZkBF9TAzk3NDkwNTA1BGdycElkAzE0NjU4ODM0BGdycHNwSWQDMTY5MDE2MjM5NgRzZWMDZn RyBHNsawNtc2dzBHN0aW1lAzEyMjcxODA2ODM-> | Files <http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/advracegn/files;_ylc=X3oDMTJnZmIzbmZxB F9TAzk3NDkwNTA1BGdycElkAzE0NjU4ODM0BGdycHNwSWQDMTY5MDE2MjM5NgRzZWMDZnRyB HNsawNmaWxlcwRzdGltZQMxMjI3MTgwNjgz> | Photos <http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/advracegn/photos;_ylc=X3oDMTJmZm03N2xh BF9TAzk3NDkwNTA1BGdycElkAzE0NjU4ODM0BGdycHNwSWQDMTY5MDE2MjM5NgRzZWMDZnRy BHNsawNwaG90BHN0aW1lAzEyMjcxODA2ODM-> | Links <http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/advracegn/links;_ylc=X3oDMTJnbWt2aXAwB F9TAzk3NDkwNTA1BGdycElkAzE0NjU4ODM0BGdycHNwSWQDMTY5MDE2MjM5NgRzZWMDZnRyB HNsawNsaW5rcwRzdGltZQMxMjI3MTgwNjgz> | Database <http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/advracegn/database;_ylc=X3oDMTJkdm45cm tvBF9TAzk3NDkwNTA1BGdycElkAzE0NjU4ODM0BGdycHNwSWQDMTY5MDE2MjM5NgRzZWMDZn RyBHNsawNkYgRzdGltZQMxMjI3MTgwNjgz> | Polls <http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/advracegn/polls;_ylc=X3oDMTJnZms2MnFmB F9TAzk3NDkwNTA1BGdycElkAzE0NjU4ODM0BGdycHNwSWQDMTY5MDE2MjM5NgRzZWMDZnRyB HNsawNwb2xscwRzdGltZQMxMjI3MTgwNjgz> | Members <http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/advracegn/members;_ylc=X3oDMTJmbDRlOGJ 1BF9TAzk3NDkwNTA1BGdycElkAzE0NjU4ODM0BGdycHNwSWQDMTY5MDE2MjM5NgRzZWMDZnR yBHNsawNtYnJzBHN0aW1lAzEyMjcxODA2ODM-> | Calendar <http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/advracegn/calendar;_ylc=X3oDMTJlbHJjbG Z1BF9TAzk3NDkwNTA1BGdycElkAzE0NjU4ODM0BGdycHNwSWQDMTY5MDE2MjM5NgRzZWMDZn RyBHNsawNjYWwEc3RpbWUDMTIyNzE4MDY4Mw--> ************quote************************ "Adventure is not outside man; it is within."
