Perhaps not guaranteed,but when someone clearly states that they don't want to participate in maneuvers that increase the risk of an accident, the guide needs to listen to the customer. The guide handbook of Ocoee Rafting has many statements in it which refer to the lengths a guide should go to to ensure safety. One statement on the "HUMAN RELATIONSHIPS IN INSURANCE" page states "Instruct guides not to encourage guests to participate in activities which pose greater than normal hazards, or in which the guest is reluctant to become involved." If that doesn't prove negligence, I don't know what does.
