that top picture is amazing in and of itself. Did you take it?
I wish, I just searched some on a local news site. I don't have water views from my house so to take photos of the storm I would of had to get out in the rain.... fuck that!

I had no idea were it was filmed I do however know 2 people that got left out in the water off the coast of cancun for 6 hours before the Mexican boat guides came back to get them .. by that time they had puked and were very ill from the continued wave action and the salt water slapping them in the face ... But now I guess I have to add Australia to the list of No scuba with local's ?
It was a while back and the "American" tourists ventured off to places they were not supposed to go. It was one of those 1 in a million cases. If you saw how many people dive off our east coast every year you'd be surprised more didnt get left behind or lost. I have been a few times!

... here's my place up in the north of Scotland .... nice and quiet ... this is the beach at the back of my house where I walk the dogs ... usually see just one or two other folk each time I go out ....
It says u live in London?
Anyway Scotland is beautiful but it is way too fucking cold and wet for my preference!

wow, living so far from the ocean,shit like that frightens me!
After the storm finishes the big surf lasts for a few days and heaps of people head out in that sort of weather. I waited until the second day so the waves were only 2-3m instead of 5-6m!
When you live within 1 hour of a beach your entire life you get used to shit like that!
