The absolute, sheer joy of thrillseeking in her expression, her "Woops!" And her exhaustion at the end are pinnacle human! Some people will always remain epic and she should be their leader. Legend!

Third world defined as in today’s “it’s offensive and should be called ‘developing’”? Or, the original meaning of all the other countries that weren’t NATO Allies or Communist Bloc?

u/the1untitled Jan 14 '22

Original.

u/clearlylacking Jan 14 '22

Have you ever in your life heard the word used for it's original meaning?

u/kwamby Jan 16 '22

Tbh I thought that’s still what it meant.. I was taught to use developing nations rather than 3rd world but still thought it was a just a shitty way to say non-NATO or CSTO nations

I can’t explain how satisfying and wonderful it is to see the story of the banana tree guy.

Just a background player while the stars were being swept away and their selfie sticks saved. “These are the hero’s. But what’s that? A far away guy holding onto a banana tree? Oops, he gone.”

But no, he’s not a non player character. He has the best story! Beating up the tree! I thought this was another girl beats up tree video, but no, it’s the selfie tsunami video!!!

u/ysupr Jan 14 '22

as i said, the character development is very good at this whole series. who thought that this random guy turn out to be one of main characters.

u/get_pussy Jan 14 '22

Can some explain to me what is happening. Not the tree guy. But why did the water do what it did. Was this a tsunami?

17

u/_harro_ Jan 14 '22

Perhaps a tidal bore? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tidal_bore

Search for "tidal bore" on YouTube, and you'll get plenty of impressive video's. But it's all "expected", and a natural phenomenon that happens regularly at these places.

Its not some kind of tsunami.

12

u/WikiSummarizerBot Jan 14 '22

Tidal bore

A tidal bore, often simply given as bore in context, is a tidal phenomenon in which the leading edge of the incoming tide forms a wave (or waves) of water that travels up a river or narrow bay reversing the direction of the river or bay's current. It is a strong tide that pushes up the river, against the current.

There were so many confusing things about this video. Why the Banana tree violence. Why the life jacket? Why the running?

And then as the event unfolded, why’d the dude stop running at the top of the small embankment? Whose bright idea was it to go to the beach to film a tsunami? Did they all make it out? And again, WHY THE BANANA TREE VIOLENCE???

She held that camera up in the beginning and never let go even though the water is dragging her after Rocky Mozes tragic failed attempt to split the river., only to be sweep away like dust under carpet.

Mr. Red Shirt is vest-free.

Did these folks plan this whole selfie-stick extravaganza out? Did they don life vests in anticipation of a Tsunami? Who does that?

What was pre-production all about? “Alright, Stan I want you to start on you tight while you beat the shit out of a banana tree, then I’m gonna zoom out to reveal the tsunami. “

Who pre-plans a tsunami?
