Nope, not what you think based on the post title (or the scent that often surrounds the river bank)... this is a kayaker that I watched launch himself from just under the bridge.
As he didn't immediately get dragged down river by the current, I too may make an attempt sometime. With reasonable effort, I think I can make my way upstream along the bank to increasingly calm waters... then cruise back to my truck when my flabby arms are out of steam.

He's sitting too far back in his Dick's Sports special, in essence wasting his energy as he is effectively paddling straight up into the sky, as your photo so eloquently reveals.
But, who am I to talk. While the ergonomically incorrect pus-gut in your photo got out to paddle, I was likely lying in my ENO downing a full bag of peanut M&Ms with a 32 ounce Gatorade chaser, and then peeing it all back into the same bottle from the hammock just to avoid an exhaustive walk to the bushes.
