The biggest danger of a jet ski is a collision. While there are any number of other possible dangers, this is the one that is the most likely to result in a death or serious injury.
Every jet ski operator should be familiar with the most common types of jet ski collisions:
1) Two or more jet skis are operating in close proximity. Someone falls of one jet ski and is hit by another jet ski. The operator of the other jet ski was avoiding the other jet skis but didn't notice the person in the water.
2) Two or more jet skis are operating in close proximity. One jet ski is directly behind another and the lead jet ski slows down suddenly. The person in the following jet ski panics, releases the throttle (meaning they have no steering), and hits the lead jet ski. (Astronaut Alan G. Poindexter was recently killed in this type of accident.)
3) A jet ski rider collides with a fixed object such as a log or bridge support.
4) A jet ski rider collides with a swimmer in the water.
In addition, it is vital that every rider of a PWC wear an appropriate personal flotation device. You can get thrown off a jet ski and lose consciousness. Without a life preserver, drowning is a serious risk.
