I'm going with BS, the ratio of weight to surface area of a person is MUCH higher than a flat rock, you simply can't push down against the water with the weight of your body and get traction. There's lots of crafty fake stuff just like this floating around the internet, remember the video of the guy going down a water slide, flying 300 feet through the air and landing in a kiddie pool?

I dunno.. They seem to fall thru at about the same spot, but ya never know.. In theory it makes sense. And it's easy to walk on water, or even stand on it.................Wait till it freezes..
