I explained to a young friend, who was determined to hit the large waves on Mexico’s Pacific side, that it was like diving off of our building onto the street, then having the building fall on top of you.
And that was only for 20 footers. ;)
That’s why I don’t body surf anymore since I dang near drownt once on vacation.. and it wasn’t even 5 foot waves. :-)
90 Feet? ouch.
