And that is exactly what a man from Illinois tried to do.
On Monday a 911 call was placed from Rock Island, IL because a man was spotted floating down the Mississippi River in a LOG!
The fire department brought their rescue boat to get him out of the water and the man seemed confused as to why they were there.
He told them very seriously that he was trying to move from Illinois to Kentucky via a wooden log...
The firemen dropped him off at the shore and strongly urged him to make other transportation plans.
Hopefully, he made it there!
