I wouldn’t do it at his or my age.

He really wasn't that old at 59, but you know what they say. The best part of getting old is it doesn't last that long. And Florida Man certainly proved my point.

He figured that way, he wouldn't have to wear any sunscreen.

Real smart, that fellah!

All you would need is a compass

That is not true. A compass does not measure lateral drift caused by wind and ocean currents.

Didn’t this clown have even ONE friend or relative who cared about him?

To die a probably horrible death is one thing; but to forever be remembered in national news as a complete imbecile is even worse.

There was a guy that wind surfed 90 miles from Cuba to the US and made it. Got a job with a wind surf board manufacturer.

If he keeps in mind that moss grows on the north side of trees, he shouldn’t have a problem heading south.
