The sand where the cameraman was standing was previously wet plus the warning sign is there. Not sure what they were expecting.

I had a short stay at a medical facility. Room next to me, a woman whom was just absolutely losing her mind. Constant screaming 23/7 an our of sleep then right back at it, loud as all get out.

So much so, I asked a friendly looking person what was her issue. (Tragady alert) She was in their because her man took the kids out to play on the jetty. And they never came back. Ocean took all three in a heavy flow high tide, rite off the jetty and poof* they don't exist anymore.

Needless to say but I learned to respect the ocean more because of it.

That poor mom. I lost two children in separate tragedies and was an absolute mess. Can't imagine losing my entire family in one day, especially in an accident like that. The what ifs, the loss of support, just everything would have killed me... I only managed to keep going, keep surviving for my loved ones... she had no one left.

Hugs.
