Some surfers are born to the breed of risktakers. There are similar people out here in California. They run toward the high waves. Not away, like regular people do. They will not be dissuaded from making the attempt to conquer these water monoliths.

‘Ride The Radioactive Surf’ was a huge 1960’s Jan and Dean hit! Hmmmmm, well, maybe I’m confused about that title......

NONSENSE!

They ought to try the meanest wave on the planet at Shipstern's, where the waves have waves in them.

Second worst release in the history of the nuclear power industry (Chernobyl, Fukushima, Three Mile Island).

It took the biggest earthquake ever recorded to strike Japan (4th largest ever recorded on Earth) to cause it, but even then, it was not from the earthquake itself. It was the massive tsunami which destroyed the backup generators, so the pumps quit and three reactors overheated, till they breached their containment. They were among the oldest reactors in Japan.

Other than the first responders who went into the breached reactors themselves, no deaths were directly attributed to the radioactive release. About 15,000 were killed, and 3,000 lost by the earthquake and tsunami.

I tried surfing for the first time in my life only this past summer. Here’s a video I posted on YouTube of it. Have to admit I was a little nervous, it being my first time and all.

The Japanese can’t get enough of that nuclear fallout — seems like August 1945 was insufficient.

I’d rather surf Okinawa, warmer too.

When they come down with radiation-triggered cancers, whom will they sue?
