Never turn your back on water! My sailing instructor always yelled at us about it, didn’t think about it until the one time I turned my back a wave hit me and nearly dragged me out, was scary even with a life jacket on
To me, waves piling on top of one another and then the pile of water travelling further up the beach shows a natural wave set rhythm, not a sneaker wave. I have often stood on a beach where in one moment the water was ankle deep and in another moment the water was piled up to past knee deep and then back again, repeating over and over again. Each time the water piled up it would flood further up the beach. A sneaker wave typically passes that natural rhythm by a long shot.
yeah i even saw one at night (video) thats litteraly humongous luckily the guy survived due to how fast he is as well his reaction time and not being on his back@@OutdoorsPodcast
@@melanies.6030 I'm joking, obviously there is a risk with having your dog free range. We know our dogs really well, and never put them in danger. My wife is a veterinary nurse so we are very aware of the risks we encounter. Finally, neither of our dogs are into playing in the ocean, so they are typically quite a ways up the beach as opposed to close to the water.
@@OutdoorsPodcast It’s the sound of the ocean being just as loud as your voice that’s the problem. Would you like the ocean to turn down its volume or do you think you could speak a bit louder next time?
As you can see, most of these waves are dying off right in that area...(where i'm pointing), but every now and then, they build up one on top of another, and they come much further up the beach then then your expecting, and you might get caught if you aren't paying attention. It's always good to watch the water line on the sand, (also pointing) but in general you should always keep your eyes on the water, because it can get dangerous if you don't.
