Camping In a Tent On Water? Now You Can

Ever wish you could float down the river and sleep?

Would you camp in a tent on water?

There are good ideas and then there are some ideas that shouldn't be entertained. A video shared on Facebook by VT shows us a floating tent called the Shoal Tent. While it kind of looks like a life raft, it's actually made for camping on the water.

What could go wrong? Well you could float pretty far down the river before you know it. Also water snakes and alligators could always pay you a visit. What if you wake up on the wrong side of the tent and accidentally fall in? What about water hazards like sharp, pointed logs? Kiss your fortress of solitude goodbye.

Would you camp on the water in this tent? I will personally pass on that idea.
