The sea was angry that day, my friends. A real beauty. Pics @ the link.

I cant imagine this “Giant Wave” hitting Samui... I've been to Koh Phangan(right next to Samui) several times to kiteboard and say the Gulf of Thailand isnt big enough to support “Giant Waves”. and going out on a ledge to yoga, wouldnt it be wet from previous normal waves?
something doesnt make sense here... i’m suspicious...

The yoga mat was left in place while she was swept away? And where was the boyfriend? A few feet away taking pictures is a good guess. I’m wondering if the story is misstating the facts. She might have gotten up and gone closer to the edge for a better picture and slipped, or perhaps was indeed knocked off balance by a larger than usual wave that did not, however, reach her mat. Tragic accident, but people are tempted into dangerous situations for pictures every day.

A buddy of mine and I got caught in a rouge wave in Oregon around ‘76.
The beach was VERY flat (level) and not steep — as such we were walking on the wet sand at low tide 300’ easily from the waves.
We both heard an odd sound and, due to the full moon we could see a wave moving towards us quickly. We ran about 150’ then jumped onto a large driftwood tree about 4’ in diameter. By the time the wave started retreating it had climbed up the beach at least 100’ past us but the driftwood tree saved us, we were soaked.
Two older ladies south of us were not so lucky and drowned when they were just taking a evening stroll...
We never know when our number is up...

Was she practicing her lines for a remake of “Swept Away”?
