What was that clip a few minutes ago? Was that some guy getting literally blown away out from under some type of umbrella-like structure? That was unreal.

Yup. At the end of the clip, he scrambled up the embankment just as the storm surge came in.

No, they were commenting on the lack of storm surge. He was sitting in a lounge chair under the umbrella-like thatched structure and jumped up and ran when a big wave went under the structure. Since the thing was still standing afterward I assume he made it to safety OK.
