Nice catch! To bad for the fellow, hoping he didn’t get too badly hurt. Drones today are amazing tools!!

Gave me shivers. Being from Hawaii I have tremendous respect for the ocean. Riptides, incoming tides, and rouge waves can rear-up and bite you so fast, I’ve got back/leg scars to prove it. That guy was lucky to have folks watching him. What if nobody saw him go down, and he rolled into the sea with a concussion?
NEVER turn your back to the ocean, watch every wave, even while walking along the beach...
