What's The 'Jamaican River Raft' Video, aka The 'Martha Brae Special?' And Who Is The Woman Asking For The Plastic Bag?

An explicit video filmed on a Jamaican river raft has resurfaced online, originally taken about a year ago. In it, the female tourist asks her male tour guide to "put on a plastic bag," which has since become known as the "Martha Brae Special."

Although many people have already seen the infamous video, curiosity is still brewing. People want to know where it came from, who the lady is and why she asked for a plastic bag? Let's explain.

What Is The 'Jamaican River Raft' Video?

The video in question shows a woman on a bamboo river raft in Jamaica's Martha Brae River lying on her back while a man, presumed to be her river tour guide, is about to penetrate her. In the video, she tells him, "Not in, sir," and proceeds to say, "Get a plastic bag or something. I'm serious."

For many tourists who travel to Jamaica every year, rafting down the Martha Brae River is a hotbed destination. Part of the day trip is getting a mineral massage from the tour guide. It can be interpreted from the video that the woman asking for a "plastic bag" likely got a "happy ending."

Where Did The Original Video Come From?

Not much is known about the video's origin. Some of the best information about its original poster comes from an article published by the Jamaica Observer in September 2022, who likened the origin to X.

The Observer got a statement from the company, River Raft Ltd, who the male tour guide was representing. The company stated that it was "appalled by the video and has advised that its company is 'in no way associated' with the footage."

Although it originally trended in 2022, the video made waves once again this month when it was re-uploaded to X, inspiring another slew of shocked reactions.

What Is The 'Martha Brae Special?'

When the video first hit the internet in 2022, users on X started to call the video the "Martha Brae Special" in reference to the river that the video was allegedly filmed at. In turn, memes using the name have continued into this year.

Why Did She Ask For A 'Plastic Bag?'

A "plastic bag" was asked for most likely because it could be a not-so-functional emergency condom if the sexual encounter progressed. Hopefully, the woman was being sarcastic when she asked for it.
