A water jet used for recreation is generally smaller than a water cannon, but large enough that the water can spray several meters or feet. People can either insert money to pay for a predetermined amount of usage time, or push a button for free to start and stop the water. The water jet can be turned to allow the person to spray the water in different directions.
Famous quotes containing the words water and/or jet:
“Man is but a reed, the feeblest one in nature; but he is a thinking reed. The entire universe need not arm itself to crush him—a vapor, a drop of water suffices to kill him. But if the universe were to crush him, man would still be nobler than that which killed him, because he knows that he dies and the advantage which the universe has over him; the universe knows nothing of this.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
“But every jet of chaos which threatens to exterminate us is convertible by intellect into wholesome force. Fate is unpenetrated causes.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
