Gear companies will go to great lengths to demonstrate how tough and durable their products are, but this video certainly takes the cake. Otterbox is preparing to launch a new line of waterproof duffel bags called the Yampa. To show us just how well these duffels perform, the team behind them created a makeshift raft from the bags and then floated it down a river. As you’ll see, the Yampa actually served this purpose pretty well, although I wouldn’t recommend trying this at home kids.
