I was aprox 6 years old. Went to a surfer beach in Tenerife on the northern atlantic side. Whe we arrived the beach was closed with a red flag because of the waves, every adult told me to not go into the sea. I went in the sea like a dumbass, the sea pulled me in so much it was difficult to see the people on the beach. Lifeguards tried to throw me lifefloaters but the sea pulled me in so fast none could reach. A curly haired surfer jumped in the water, when he reached me we were so far away from the beach people looked like ants, i remember watching the sweat comming out of the pores of his face even after the waves hit us, the super heavy breathing, his shaking voice telling me to paddle and his heart beating against my shoulder super fast and strong. He managed to get us close enought to the point where the waves started to go white, we were hit very hard and submerged several times, the way the man held me when we were under water felt like hurting crushing steel, then he managed to get us closer to the shore every time the white waves hit us from behind. When i was a kid i did not understood the inmense danger the surfer took for me. As an adult i understood those very weird things i noticed, like him sweating a lot on cold water and the crushing hold when we had no air, was him near collapsing and extremelly scared of us dying. I wish i could find him 35 years later and thank him properly, really really really really hope his life is good.

Does ozzy man have cancer?

I’ve got one for you, Ozzy. Went down to Florida around 2019 with a few friends who brought kayaks. We decided to take them out on the ocean one day and my kayak flipped. They pushed on ahead to get past the waves breaking, and I had to swim after my kayak. I had no life jacket. I was trying to swim as hard as I could for what must’ve been 4-5 minutes, while the tide basically held me still. I was probably 150 feet out or so when it flipped, and i remember realizing I was completely exhausted at some point in the middle and that I needed to keep a level head or I was going to die. When I finally got to my kayak and managed to get back to shore, there were a few people just standing there watching. Might as well have been eating popcorn. Nobody was coming to help me, and I’m glad I did not panic. Definitely taught me to respect the ocean more. It’s fun to go out and do things, but you need to be prepared for the worst. I was not, and I was lucky to get back to shore.

"Listing" is a nautical term to describe when a vessel takes on water and tilts to one side. A ship can list either to port (left) or starboard (right). By contrast, a ship is said to be "trimming" when she tips forward or backward.

My terrifying water story: Elephant Butte New Mexico. First time I've ever ridden (or rented a jet ski) went out with my (then) wife and 2 friends and we rented a boat all day. The weather started to turn bad, started raining but no lightning and it got pretty cold. We had to bring the boat back early and before we left decided to try out the jet skis which the dock master was ok with since our boating got cut short. The wind was making some pretty crazy waves which were fun to jump, but this also had made most people decide to call it quits so it was pretty much empty now. After being on the jet ski for about 15 minutes I hit a wave just right and it knocked the wind out of me and off the jet ski. Tried swimming towards it but the waves kept pushing it further and further. After about 8 minutes of swimming I realized it was moving faster away than I was swimming and I was getting exhausted and very very cold. Bobbing up and down in the water it was difficult to even see the dock itself, let alone if anyone was on it. I honestly felt like this was it. I couldn't swim anymore and if i hadn't had a life jacket on I wouldn't be alive today. I just started screaming for help. Ran out of options. I screamed until I lost my voice. About 6 minutes later I heard another jet ski and it was the dock master. He had gotten worried because he didn't hear mine anymore and decided to come looking and saw it floating around. When he got closer to me I started screaming for help again until he heard and saw me and picked me up and took me back to my jet ski which was now incredibly far away. Still haven't gotten back on one since. Side note to this.. I'm a very strong swimmer, but it's crazy how much a low temperature and a life jacket reduces that skill to almost nothing.

Not one life jacket in sight except for when the boat was about to sink......And he still hadn't put it on. 🤦‍♂😂

We were fishing for salmon at Buoy 10 on the Columbia River about 30 years ago, and it went from relatively smooth to terrifying in about a minute, and then the engine died.

Had to be rescued once when I was trying to learn to windsurf. Had done some sailing, so I understood I needed to tack back to shore but I couldn't stay on my feet and keep the sail up, so I was trying to paddle back to shore. I wasn't far out, but certainly wasn't making any headway getting back, so they sent a boat out for me. I felt really bad about it, but the rescue boat captain was super nice and gave me a great pep talk about how important it is to try new things and not feel badly when they don't go to plan.

I've seen plenty of yay-hoos attempting the Haulover but can't decide if I like the spinal injuries of innocents at the front or powering the bow underwater best. That poor dog looked terrified: "Let's go back in now, Dad". From now on, whenever he sees the boat being readied for another big adventure he runs and hides.

The "trick" at these inlets is to give just enough throttle to raise the stern of the boat, without going onto plane. Lots of "captains" are either unaware of this or afraid, in both cases they are unqualified to drive a boat at an inlet.

Listing is when a boat tips to one side after filling with too much water. It makes the boat super unstable and can result in capsizing (tipping over). Edit.

@willdejong7763

Listing can happen for other reasons besides filling with water. An example comes to mind. I think I saw this on the Plainly Difficult channel here on KZread. A combo passenger and cargo boat was modified from its original design which made it top heavy. On its last trip it was loaded with way too much heavy stuff up high, there was a mild storm, the cargo shifted to the side of the hold, gradually at first and then faster as it listed further and further. The passengers, mainly college kids heading home for summer break if I remember right, were told to stay in their cabins. The ones that survived were able to figure out that getting out of their cabins and into one of the very few life rafts was their best bet.

As a kid around 5, I fell into a public pool and remember bobbing up and down a few times then nothing. I woke up on the side of the pool being given cpr. I wish I knew where that lady is. She saved my life. Love the channel 😂

I had the same thing happen to me when I was a freshman in high school. First time going to the beach. We went to Edisto Beach South Carolina and it was late in the evening not yet dark but getting close and the tide was pulling out. I got stuck in a rip and it kept pulling me out to sea and under. I can swim fairly well, however, as a teenager who had never been in the ocean before the absolute power of it was crazy! Of course, I panicked! I was scared to death. I thought I was going to drown. Thankfully my cousins were there one of whom lived nearby and knew what was happening and they both swam out and got me. One pulled me to shore the other got slammed into the rock jetty I think it's called and it scratched and bruised him up pretty good. He also lost his wedding band by getting thrown around and onto the rocks. They saved my life that's for sure. I've not gone out over my knees since. I was 14 at the time, I'm 37 now and it still messes with me.

Hit an 18 foot wave in a 28 foot boat. I was thrown overboard, that's when you appreciate stuff. Thanks for the maritime themed video

Used to take the kids to Camber Sands,UK for holiday. Thing to remember about the beach is that you can wade out for a good 500metres before it starts getting deeper than a metre. Great for the kiddies as they have this massive ‘pool’ to play in. Mine knew not to go in past their chest and I used to be out on the open sea side keeping an i on them. In two holidays there I’ve dragged 4 people back to shore as they’ve gone too far and stepped off the shelf into the rip current. Both kids and parents I’ve had to drag out. It’s stupid really as 1. There’s a good 2-3 metre warning as the depth starts to increase. 2. As the depth increases you can feel the water getting colder . 3. As you get near the edge you can feel the direction of the undertow change. 4. There’s signs at the holiday park, in the car parks, on the beach , all telling you not to go out past where the depth starts to increase. 5. People are idiots when it comes to shallow water, “it’s just a big swimming pool” yeah right! Now my kids are grown we don’t go there anymore. Probably for the good as I’m not as fit as I used to be.Was brought up swimming in rivers and the sea, learnt how to handle currents and to listen to the locals and most of all to respect the power of water.

@suchnothing

7 ай бұрын

Listening to the locals is good advice. You should never swim in a natural body of water if you don't know how the currents behave. My home town has a wide, winding river cutting through the center, fed by melting snow and glaciers from the Canadian Rockies (a few hours drive away). By late summer, most of the melt is gone and the river is relatively shallow, so people go wading or let their dogs play in the river. And to be fair, most people do it without incident. But it's not uncommon for a person or dog to drown. Even though it's shallow enough for an adult to touch the bottom most or all of the way across, the water on the river bed sometimes flows faster than the water on the surface and it can make you lose your footing and drag you under, impossible to get back up again on your own. People often don't understand that it's surprisingly easy to drown in 4 ft of water.

“Everyone is working hard to be relaxed”. 😂😂😂

I had a similar experience Ozzy. I was 8, and we were down in Perth from Leonora on a school trip, 1978. We were at Yanchep. The surf was up with a very strong rip tide. I couldn’t swim then, so my first mistake was getting in the water at all. I got out to a point where the sand dropped off suddenly, eaten away by the current. I got in trouble quickly, but I wasn’t thinking I was. Even though the surf was turbulent and I couldn’t get a footing, there was no panic. I was determined to try and push off the sand up to the surface, but the current kept pushing me out away from the sand’s edge. I just remember seeing the surface above me, a complete sense of calm, it was very quiet. Then I felt something grab my ankle, and I blacked out. When I came to, I was on the beach with all the kids around looking at me. I was oblivious to the idea that I had almost drowned. I think it was the teacher that got me out, but he’s never talked about it. He still teaches out there in Leonora all these years later. The whole experience is still as vivid as yesterday. Fair to say we called it a day after that.

My son was part of a rescue when he was 10 years old and living in Yellowknife on Great Slave Lake in Canada's Northwest Territories. He took a canoe and kayaking course. The first day, they practiced rescue techniques at the swimming pool. The next day, they went out on the lake. They saw a canoe tip over and went to the rescue. It was a British tourist and his son. They had set out on the lake with the canoe still attached to a miniature boat trailer, and a couple of child's life preservers tangled up in fishing line. They would have died quickly in the ice cold water. The cool thing was that the whole class of 10 year olds received citations at the annual Lt. Governor's water rescue awards. When my son told me the story, he said "We did a T-rescue. Do you know what that is?" I said "Yeah, sure, I was a canoe instructor when I was a teen." He went running to his mom, "Mom! Mom! Dad was a canoe instructor!" like it was the most heroic accomplishment of my life.

Funny this. I'm an American from Miami and my family was out on our small boat almost every weekend. My dad would always demand us to be seated and quiet when we went through Haulover inlet. Now I see why he was always so serious about it. My biggest ocean nightmare came when I lived in Perth and went to Burns Beach with my then 8 year old daughter. No lifeguards and not a person in sight. We got caught in the undertow and started spinning underwater like a washing machine. I grabbed hold of my daughters hair and fought our way back up and got the hell out of there. In 7 years of living in WA, that was my one and only time touching the Indian Ocean.

This was awesome Ozzyman! An Ozzyman explanation of Haulover Inlet! The American twang to boot! This channel that you got the footage from is a channel I couldn’t stop watching during the pandemic. I couldn’t get enough of watching boat try to get outta there! Thanks for your story about the rip. It’s important for people to hear those stories. You take care.

Listing means off center to either side in reference to the center of buoyancy. If you list over too far, you capsize. If you take on too much water, you swamp the boat. If you run out of reserve buoyancy, you sink.

Two friends and I braved a rip to recuse a lady once, we got her out, and I just walked up the beach and lay down completely exhausted, she seemed fine at first but after a bit she started having trouble breathing and fell unconscious my friend gave her cpr, probably saved her life. Her husband shook our hands with tears in his eyes then took her to the hospital. Wild day

Also secondary drowning is a thing... Drowning has one end up with a lot of water in the lungs directly restricting breathing... How ever ift it's just a small amount, such as inhaled by getting dunked unsuspectedly, it can still irritate the tissue of the lung. That leeds to the body excreting fluid into the lung leading to potentially fatal breathing restrictions and/or an infection. Keep an eye on people that inhaled any liquid and if they can't stop coughing, get a fewer or trouble breathing it's time to see a doctor. There are rather simple info graphics about the symptoms of secondary drowning as it often happens with children as they are prone to accidentally inhaling water.

We went to Fr Myers Fla for my honeymoon...back in the 80s... there were signs everywhere bad rip tides ...swim at own risk....we were just walking the beach when we seen people pulling a dead guy out of the ocean...he was there with his whole family celebrating his 30th anniversary..

Same year 2006. I was in Raro (Cook Islands) I've been there a lot. I noticed a huge rogue wave coming in over the reef. I started yelling for the beach goers to move back. Raro does not have a lot of beach goers BTW. I heard a few people were (Aussies) telling me to shut up. Then the waves hit. Took out the entire front section of the Muri Beach hotel. I didn't even spill my beer. For a week, I could see beach towels everywhere.

I have a few interesting ocean stories from being a Barney, as I didn't take up surfing until my 30's. After a couple of years I actually became mediocre at it. During the "learning curve" I almost lost a toe (bad cut from one of the fins), broke a rib and a incurred a concussion. The concussion was probably the scariest incident as it almost knocked me unconscious and I was surfing alone at the time.

Hey Ozzy Man! I can totally relate to the terror of being in the undertow at Scarborough Beach, the same thing happened to me a while back. I am a good swimmer usually, went for a swim but I was new to WA. No flags were out, I just started paddling and was swept out in a rip and then towed under almost immediately, thrashed around, got sucked into a huge wave, got tossed down into the sand, and bashed my nose so hard it started bleeding. Finally got close enough to the beach to drag my sorry ass out, no one knew about it until I got on shore and my friends all ran over asking if I was alright. I bloody yelled at them "I was almost killed, you bloody idiots!" It sticks with you when you almost get taken out by the ocean. Not good.

Somebody make a video out of "yaki out of nowhere in a jet ski" just quickly dodging dogdey situations. Now. Get to it internet.

I have a boat friend and he once needed the Coast Guard to pull him from a sandbank. This was many years ago and he still feels shame over it. It also does not help that the nearby villagers bring it up all the time when they see him.

There are plenty "Captains" like this in Greece. Too many have beached , lost , run out of fuel or didn't know how to start their engines

Me and 2 friends (2 brothers) were swimming over a lake. One of the brothers drowned, and the other one was almost dyin as well when we tryed to dive after his brother. When I got up to surface he was floating there with face down. Got a grip of him and screamed for help. got 5 boats commin out and we got him up and pumped him out of water. The brother that drowned however was found a week later further down the stream. This was in 2014, and I havent been out in water since.

Ozzyman, we need way more of these haulover commentary..😂😂😂 Use words like, Bury the bow, over the stern, heaving, planeing, quad Merc... Lobster, Crayfish....lol I picture these words with humor next Haulover Responses...🤣🤣 Love it mate, gota do a few more, they are hilarious

“Ahh, we’re sinking! I’d better get a life jacket!” Grabs one and all the others wash overboard. So much for the other people. 😂

The 'Captains' watching this: defo the dodgy ocean.

I went river rafting in Moab, Utah. We hit one of the biggest rapids at a bad angle and I got tossed out along with almost everyone else. Went through the rest of the rapid backwards in just a life jacket. I have never gone river rafting again.

At least you were doing the right thing by wearing a life jacket I don't think I've seen a single video at haulover with a life jacket.

Reminds me of that time my dad had the great idea to visit the rock of Rheinfall (a big waterfall with a rock in the middle) with our pedal powered boat. Getting there was easy, but getting away not so much. Once you get close enough to a waterfall there's a current pulling you towards it

@2:14 "everyone's working hard to be relaxed"

The worst I've ever experienced with the ocean was a wave turned the float I was in and spilled my cousin and i into the water. I guess it was shallow enough that I hit my back on the sand and it knocked the breath out of me. I remember looking through the murky water and seeing the sun but the weight of the wave kept me pinned on my back and then I just popped up and was standing in knee deep water with my cousin not that far from me and the raft already on shore. It was so weirdly calm under the water, like I didn't think about needing to breathe or panic, it was surreal. Same cousin also ended up being swept away by a strong undertow at another beach and I was the only one that noticed and swam after her. I'm glad she was small for her age (A year older then me) and I was a strong swimmer because we managed to get back to shore together but that was probobly scarier then being pinned underwater just because I could see the rest of our family getting smaller and smaller and no one noticed we were gone. I was glad the water was only going along the shore and not out to sea so at least that helped, we never lost sight of the shore.

I've been on one of these "triple Evinrude" racing cigars of the Excalibur brand in Miami back in the mid 80's. Each engine had 250hps for a total of 750hps. Top speed on the water was over 130kmh. My dad and I were vacationing in Florida at the time and met these guys by chance and somehow they took a liking to us and invited us to their places and took us to all the fancy shmancy places in Miami. I was young and naive back then. Today I am convinced that when the boat wasn't used to impress chicks or tourists, it was actually used to smuggle cocaine. 😄

If it was Miami in the 80s you're probably right.....

I live about an hour & a half from pyramid lake in California. The cops on the lake are very strict about kids wearing life jackets but they really don’t give a crap about jet skiers or speed boats getting a little to close to a wake boarder. One of my brothers friends almost got run over…twice about 15 years ago. We don’t go back there anymore.

Shout out to Jill and Paddy of the Blackjack in Anglesey and the RNLI, those guys saved my life. Being lost at sea certainly leaves a lasting impression! ❤

When I was 8 my swim team went to the beach and I got caught in a rip tide. I swan horizontal to shore as taught and then in and got back, but I was so tired my legs were shaking and i scared the adults who coordinated the trip! Sometimes kids are less panicy, probably because we can't imagine the consequences of what could go wrong. I was so far out they couldn't see me!

Scarborough Beach is incredible, doesn't rival Esperance but it's pretty cool when you see a shark helicopters.

I grew up in Florida, and my dad’s a boat captain…. He’s going to love this video omg hahahahaahha!!!, you are hilarious!!, please do more haulover video commentary 😂😂😂😂

Brazil, around 04, my dad, brother and me managed to swim out of a particularly strong and green-wavy pulling sea. After that, my father was convinced the sea was too dangerous, commented that to a random dude standing next to us. In a couple of minutes the dude was being laid on a stretcher and taken away by a helicopter. Don’t know if he made it. Will never know. Respect the sea.

This is Florida boating in a nutshell, too many boats with no captains.

As a long-time follower of Wavy Boats and Ozzy Man, I couldn't wait for this "collab"... It didn't disappoint me 😆

A Canberra boat is a beautiful thing.She sits in the driveway 9 months until it’s time drive 250 km to the ocean.

There's no entertainment like Haulover entertainment. The only really scary thing is the complete lack of lifejackets on ANYBODY most of the time. Haulover doesn't play around. Ozzy - check out the boats with SIX Mercs on them!

Ozzy Man commenting for 11 minutes on a well edited Haulover inlet video. That just sounds like a recipe for good times. Thank you.Ozzy Man.

When i was about 12, i tried to swim accross a local lake. I have no idea what i was thinking, i wasn't a very strong swimmer. Fortunately a canoe happened to be out there, and they were super ignorant about it. I latched on to the bow and wouldn't let go lol when i got to shore they literally had to force my interlocked fingers apart as i couldn't let go. Im still pretty cautious around wild water.

Thanks for bringing up a memory. 1991/2 went with a neighbor to the lake for a nice recreational boaty day. We got T-Boned by another rec'y. Boat went top side down, and my friend and I were trapped in a small 'air bubble' freaking out. Thank God we have life vests on. Seemed like forever stuck in there, eventually his dad swims under and takes us down and out. Another boat shows up to take us to shore. Holy crap I hadn't thought about that in a long long time. I was like 10 years old. Absolutely horrifying.

Horrifying water story: When I was 15, around 1994 on a school trip in summer, we climbed up and over some mountains during a 35 degree day. Allowed to cool off in a pool under a waterfall, I got cramp. I cant really swim so went straight under. Held my breath until I was blacking out, maybe two minutes but felt like more. Swallowed two whole lungfuls of water, then I felt something hit my hand. The instructor had thrown a rope with a weight on it and dragged me back in. It is true what they say about drowning, when your body starts to give up it does get very peaceful.

Yeah, I can't even tell you how many times the under tow got me in the ocean when I was a teenager. The first couple of times I did panic, for sure. But I got the hang of it quick. When you're in it you become so discom-fuckin-bobulated, you dont even know which direction is the surface! Then I quickly discovered the best thing to do is relax your entire body. That's the trick. The more you panic and fight it the worse it gets. You have to relax and let i just take you where it will, then, believe me, it kind of pushes you out of it and into calmer water. It works every time, I'm telling ya.

Ozzyman. Listing - when a boat takes on water and tilts to one side.

Another great one. Thanks Ozzy Man. FYI - you would really enjoy searching Blue Top Legend at Haulover Inlet. Great skills.

Surprised you didn't comment on all the life jackets floating away on the boat that took on water and had to be rescued. hah! Started out with bridges, which was a psych-out, and went to inlets. Love your videos Ozzy Man! Always something to look forward to.

I live near Lake Superior, which is a body of water that is always actively trying to kill you. It's an inland sea that is hypothermic even at the height of summer, and is powerful enough to take down huge freighters. It's such a force of nature...I love it and I'm scared of it.

Such a funny word but they can't say tilting?

In the Solomon Islands, I borrowed a wooden sailing dingy. Tacking upwind was lots of fun, but when I turned downwind it shipped water and went under, about a half-mile offshore. Luckily I had a life jacket on, so I tied all the wooden parts together and began to swim back towing everything. Then the owner arrived in his motor yacht and collected me.

Newer recommendations if you are ever caught in a riptide are to simply float on your back and call for help while letting it take you out to sea. Fighting it is just going to exhaust you and has a low success rate. If it pulls you out, it's much more energy efficient to just start swimming back to shore from where the riptide dumps you. Still a long way to swim, but it's a much safer swim back to shore.

@metalmamasue3680

6 ай бұрын

I've read/heard that you should swim parallel to the rip current for a stretch and then you can turn & swim to shore. That you can swim passed the rip because they're not the whole length of the beach. I'm glad I never had to try it.

I remember when I was young and swimming in a sea storm for fun. Was all fun and good until a wave pasted me to the seafloor, twice.
