God's way of thinning out the stupid ones.
From Ohio, and they have signs posted everywhere that it's not safe. Anyone who lives by or knows of Lake Erie, knows this was a really dumb idea from go. I'm glad everyone is safe. This could have ended so bad.

The same thing happens every year on this lake.
Lake Erie is not always the best option to jump on when deciding to do that kind of activity

Careless conditions horrible outcome
These people need to be identified, charged with the 'crime' of stupidity, and made to pay for ALL of the costs to tax payers, for saving their lives. Yes! Auction off their toys and collect all sums that exceed this, to include time, labor etc. plus penalties, to send a mesage to other would be idiots. I will bet you anything that these dolts were also antivaxxine, anti mask covidiots to boot!

I hope that the government of whatever state is involved sends these low IQ people huge bills for having to go and rescue them.
They should’ve left them out there that’ll teach the next 18 not to do it….
Just go full speed on your snowmobile; snow, ice or water will not make a difference. If you have the guts to ride a snowmobile on a big frozen lake like Erie, maybe you should also have the balls to decide not to rely on others to come and rescue you because of some ice floe breaking away. Tourist pussies…

Global warmIng. Ration fuel. Stoo development. Or it is all over. Guess it is over. Too greedy andv ignorant!
I'm glad no one was hurt!
Good news no 1 dead
Stop rescuing these idiots. It messes up the natural order of things. The creator wants to phase out morons via attrition.
Look what I can do! Lots of Stewarts out there. Be safe
Good job ❤️
Did they lose their snowmobiles?
Fools
Nobody deserves to go through what my sister and I are going through, My heart is filled with so much Pain and Bitterness, my sister and I are going through so much Misery and Hunger, I’ve never felt sooo suicidal all my life😞. I know people will rain insults on me for doing this but right now I’d rather ask for help than endure this kind of pain and penury. I’m 19 years old, my sister is 16, she’s my only surviving sibling and Family. We lost our parents in the space of 7 Months in 2017 and ever since then our lives Crumbled. Even if my whole body is filled with Mouths it still won’t be enough to Describe The level of hardship we’ve endured. We barely Eat These days, I can’t even remember the Last time we had a really good meal, it breaks my Heart to see my little sister cry for food and I can’t help, I had a petty job that used to help Put Food on our Table but I lost the job Bcs I Refused to sleep with the monster I was Working for who was constantly molesting me. I know it’s wrong to do this😔😢, This Plea is from a place of utmost sincerity, my sister and I need to eat, I need little financial Assistance So I can go to the local markets and buy some groceries (food items) that will keep us alive even if it’s just for a short while, I’ll be forever Grateful, If you’ve ever been in a difficult place where you didn’t know where your next meal would come from, Please come to our rescue, Nothing is too small, Nothing is too Big to help 😔🙏🙏♥️. God bless.

Sad they turned to cannibalism so early in their predicament…
At least trump lost the election
I guess the saying "on thin ice" literally applies here lol
Once again, the Coast Guard are risking their lives to rescue stupid people who think snowmobiling in a forest is too mundane.
It's about time government does something good and helpful.
To all libs… Go love yourself and let’s go Brandon, I agree!!!
Shout out to George Floyd on 622 days of sobriety. It took some tough love but he did it. Say his name liberals!
You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You never take advice
Someday you'll pay the price, I know
I've seen it before, it happens all the time
You're closing the door, you leave the world behind
You're digging for gold, you're throwing away
A fortune in feelings, but someday you'll pay
You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You want paradise
But someday you'll pay the price, I know
I've seen it before, it happens all the time
You're closing the door, you leave the world behind
You're digging for gold, you're throwing away
A fortune in feelings, but someday you'll pay
You know that you are
(Cold as ice) As cold as ice to me
(Cold as ice)
You're as cold as ice
Cold as ice, I know (you're as cold as ice)
Yes, I know
(You're as cold as ice) You're as cold as ice
Cold as ice, I know (you're as cold as ice)
Oh, yes I know
You're as cold as ice
Cold as ice, I know (You're as cold as ice)
Oh, yes I know
(You're as cold as ice) You're as cold as ice
You're so cold as ice -Foreigner

Of course they were riding snowmobiles. Should they have been is another point. Those things can disrupt animals, vegetation and maybe be the reason the ice split. Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you have to.
"Call on the Lord in the day of trouble,
and He will deliver you"
– Psalm 50 :15
Maybe we shouldn't be so quick to rescue people from their own stupidity. Perhaps if they had spent the night on the ice, they might not be so quick to ignore the numerous the warnings again in the future.
Let's Go Brandon
Waste of time saving them
Climate change.
As a Michigander, No One in their right mind goes snowmobiling on a Great Lake. Morons. I'm glad they were saved.
The Coast Guard should recover the snowmobiles and auction them to pay for the rescue.
Did they rescue the Skidoos? 😧
Skidooers going where they shouldnt be going..what a suprise
Stupid people doing stupid things!
