RedactedNarrative: 	as we arrived on scene, i observed a male laying on a tube. Several bystanders and family members were trying to keep victim on the tube and keep his head and neck padded with towels. When i made contact with victim, he was complaining of neck and back pain. I confirmed victim' breathing and heartrate was normal and then secured his neck with a c collar.
  
  	i then spoke with victim to keep him alert and to check his mental state. I asked victim if he knew what had happened. Victim stated he was riding on the tube, they approached a large wake that was produced by another boat. As the tube hit the large wake, it threw him air born from the tube. Victim then stated that he came down hard and hit the water at a bad angle. It was at that point he had neck and back pain and his hands and feet started tingling.
  
  	operator stated he was operating the boat at the time of the incident. Operator went on to state that they were just out enjoying the day and tubing. As he was pulling victim, the tube hit a big wave and threw him off the tube. When he went to pick up victim out of the water, he was complaining of his neck and back hurting and that's when they called for assistance. 
  
  	officer and i did not observe anything that would lead us to believe that alcohol or drugs were involved. Operator did not show any signs of impairment as we spoke with him.
  
  	a few days after the incident occurred, i followed up with operator on how victim was doing. Operator stated that victim was doing well, he was still a little sore but did not have any significant injuries. Operator said the doctor told them that victim sustained whiplash and might have pulled some muscles in the incident.
