"-Your assumption is incorrect.
I surf and kayak, (see my FR page) and a big wave like that; would put you into something akin to the spin cycle of a washing machine."
You didn't read the post I was referring to. If you had you would see that too referred to being caught in the breaking edge of the wave as being caught in a spin cycle too.
It is very tedious to repost everything over and over again so people who didn't read the thread from the beginning can keep up. At this point if you disagree with me fine, I don't care anymore.

-well actually I did read your posts, and I was to this post of yours:
(#162) >"It did work. Many people who were scuba diving were hardly aware of the wave until after they surfaced and tried to go back to shore. Others who were snorkeling dove and held onto the coral until it passed over. The secret is getting into deep enough water before it hits. If the water is only a few feet deep it doesn't work. <
And I said that was incorrect.
Many of the scuba divers got killed, when they got sucked out, (BEFORE THE FIRST WAVE) from "twenty meters out to 40 meters, and they got dragged on the bottom."
That was on the news, and a scuba diver couple related the story. Several of their friends died, and they were in 60 ft of water at the time.

ok. Have a good Monday, monday!
