This is the moment a kayaking ‘Karen’ got ‘instant karma’ after launching a foul-mouthed rant at another boater before being thrown headlong into the water as she tried to splash them with her paddle.

Benny Larkin and his 14-year-old daughter Taylor Larkin were boating in Dora Creek, New South Wales, Australia, when they broke down and were accosted by a “Mrs Know It All” kayaker.

The 33-year-old says the boat’s engine stopped running as they slowed down to hit the four-knot speed limit, but he quickly realized the enraged lady thought he had broken the rules.

The footage shows Benny calling the kayaker Karen, so he turns to the camera to claim that “this jerk was cruising down the creek at 24 knots.”

When Benny asks the foul-mouthed woman if she talks to her mother like that and she replies ‘my mother knows how to drive a boat better than you.’

In a fit of rage after believing Benny Larkin and his 14-year-old daughter Taylor Larkin had exceeded the speed limit, the kayaker attempted to splash the couple with her paddle.

But her little yellow kayak hilariously capsized, sending her plummeting headlong into the river.

She kayaks up to his boat and tries to splash him with her paddle, but instead, she hilariously capsizes her kayak and falls into the water.

Benny laughs and tells her he’ll post it on social media, but the woman continues her tirade while lying on her kayak and directs her anger at Taylor.

She asks the 14-year-old if she knows the rules, but when Taylor says yes, she defensively responds, “no, you don’t.”

Benny and his daughter restart their boat’s engine and drive away with the ‘Karen’ waving sarcastically behind them.

The father has since said that he was upset about the January confrontation, but wanted to stay calm and be a “smart one” with her instead of losing his temper.

Benny, who posted the video to TikTok that same day, says the woman falling out of her kayak was “instant karma trying to ruin his day.”

He says the water from the splash broke his CD player and speaker system and he will have to pay more than $1,000 to replace them.

Benny, from Grafton, New South Wales, Australia, said: “We were trying to have some fun on the water and then a local tried to ruin our day.

‘She came out of nowhere and started abusing us.

“At first I thought she wanted help, but then I realized she was going crazy and I started filming.

‘She thought she was speeding up but we slowed down before the four knot zone.

‘She wouldn’t let me talk but I was calm about it. He was being smart with her.

“It bothered me that he was saying those things in front of my daughter and that’s why I had to film it.

‘I thought he was going to hit me with an oar, so I gave the phone to my daughter.

‘He tried to splash me and wet all the equipment on my boat, but he got instant karma.

‘When you go after someone and you fall out of the kayak, in my eyes it’s fair.

“He must have had a bad day or something because he just felt the need to take authority and make a scene.”

Ben says he hasn’t seen the furious kayaker since, but is glad the video has been viewed more than 10,000 times on TikTok.

One user commented: “Where are the bull sharks when you need them?”

A second said: ‘This is great. Kayak Karen.’

A third added: “Some people are just amazing… Mrs Know-it-all.”
