Bryan Murray's 60 year love affair with water skiing

You have to be tough to go water skiing down south at this time of the year and octogenarian Bryan Murray is just that.

The 84-year-old retired from work one year ago but he is not giving up on his passion.

Mr Murray has been water skiing for 60 years, ever since his friend bought a boat.

"We had our first taste of skiing and got hooked," recalls Mr Murray.

In the water, he is in his element along with his wife Anne Murray who drives the jet boat hauling her husband around their favourite lagoon.

Story went to meet Mr Murray to watch his next event and saw him ski and suffer.
