r.i.p to the foolish surfers that got swept away because of bill even if the waves were between 4-5 feet imagine the speed they are traveling-on top of that imagine if they are not that good of a swimmer- you know while i am over 6 foot tall - i'm not even that foolish to go out in that high of waves-disagree if you would like to- just remember one thing-don't turn your back on mother nature cause you never know when she turns her back on you | |

-- You heard 'bout the legend of Jesse James, an' John Henry just to mention some names.Well there's a storm chasin' legend in the south today.A man called Donny, from Atwater, Cee-A. Every storm chaser knows his name.They swear he got ice blood runin' in his veins.A foot like lead, and nerves like steel. Well his truck jack-knifed, turned completly round,he was coming down backwards 'bout the speed of sound.Alot of folks seen him, and they all say he had his head out the window yelling, "Clear the way!"Well he got to the bottom, safe and sound, and everybody asked Donny how he made it down. He said folks when the tornado picked up too much speed I just runned along beside it and drug my feet.

They were not surfers, they were tourists at Acadia National Park in Maine trying to get pictures of the waves and a strong wave crashed and overtook them. A few of them were knocked out to sea and required dramatic sea rescue, dozens were seriously injured, and one 7 year old little girl was killed. You are correct that people should take extreme caution in these kind of conditions as they are proven as life threatening. | |
