Double sneaker wave close call!! 4K

Комедия

Two sneaker waves almost take out family with dog in front of my very eyes on Christmas day!!
Twice!!
This is Southern Oregon Beach Whiskey Run. A very long flat shallow beach. Be careful if you visit and stay away from the piles of driftwood.

    All of the tourists in the comments saying that there's no danger here are the ones we Oregonians hear about in the news. Listen. I've gone to the beach since I was a kid. When you're standing in even just the normal waves, you have to constantly move because the force of the tide pulls the sand out from under your feet, burying you up to your ankles in seconds. I myself have nearly fallen over from surprisingly strong waves. Even a "pathetic" six inches of water has a pull that can yank you out to sea in seconds. It's not something to mess around with. Ever.

    These sneaker waves almost seem more similar to a tsunami than a huge wave like everyone imagines them as, just a fraction of the size obviously. I've never seen or been hit by a sneaker wave before, but I'd imagine they behave like tsunamis, and just keep pushing and pushing inland with incredible force. It only looks like a few inches of fast moving water, but it has the power of the entire ocean behind it. I'm sure even a smaller sneaker wave would still have the potential to sweep people off their feet, and pull them back out into the ocean if they didn't react quick enough when the water started to recede...

    Live on the southern Oregon coast and "Sneaker waves are the real deal. I have seen titles of Ytube videos like oregon coast danger no one talks about. Well I hear about them almost every day. Don't turn your back on the Pacific Coast at all, it will grab you. Also stay out of the driftwood piles the logs you are climbing on can weigh tons and the shallow sneaker waves can toss them around like match sticks. Also those logs can be loosely stacked on each other and will move and shift without warning. Be safe and alert when hiking on any Pacific Coast Beach.

    Sneaker waves aren’t rogue waves or even anything out of the ordinary. It’s a matter of timing. They happen when one or more waves are able to ride over another wave. The wave on the bottom absorbs the friction from the land and the waves on top are able to go much further. Good footage.

    When you see water going back out in front of you, you know the waves are coming in at least that far. They come in sets, so usually, the 6rh, 7th, or 8th will be a high one, if the tide is coming in. We never called them 'sneaker' waves...they were just wave sets- smaller at first, gradually building. love the ocean.

Didn't keep our eyes on the waves and while turned toward shore, the big one came and knocked me right on my ass. lol!! Same with my friend...of course, it was her first time at the ocean. She knew, after that, to keep those eyes on the waves. You never know when that big one is going to hit. I remember one time, I got knocked down in simply 3feet of water, but lost my balance, couldn't get up, could not regain my balance, couldn't get a deep breath before another wave came and knocked me down again. Thankfully, my friend's daughter was nearby and recognized the problem and began warning me when a wave was coming up on my backside. I finally got the breathing 'rhythm' working and got my balance enough to stand up again. Mind you...this was in shallow water (and I was well used to being in the ocean). Those waves will kick your ass easily if you aren't ready for them. Got to always watch for the unexpected wave.

Would be breaking over 200 yards out giving the false illusion of safety. But yes, also wet sand is a warning sign too.

    The beach topography plays a large part in the travel distance of a sneaker wave. Because its so flat, and nearly level, the waves travel unimpeded a long way. They pick up logs, and other debris, turning the wave into a grinder, that can break bones, or even crush them between two water soaked logs. The ocean has more ways to kill than most people realize. Just because you're on the sand, doesn't guarantee safety if your head is in the clouds.

    That's the thing; most of the other waves aren't coming up that far. It's long enough between that people who don't know any better can wander out to places they shouldn't be, and then one of these comes along and can sweep them away, or roll gigantic drift logs over them. And the water's fairly cold, too, 11c or lower even in summer. Low enough to notably shorten your survival time should you get swept back out.

The bigger one, 6.3, would have been around 8:30 PM on the 24th in your time zone, the smaller one around 1:30 PM.

    Yes, there are signs in the parking lot at every beach access I’ve been to. They say to beware sneaker waves, which are unusually large waves (and you can’t tell them from the normal waves). The signs talk about staying off logs, and how these huge logs roll and crush people when a sneaker wave comes up. Never turn your back on the ocean. People are swept out to sea every year. Waters off Oregon and Washington coast are extremely cold. Hypothermia sets in quickly.

    This video isn't showing the waves before and after this clip; they weren't getting nearly this far up the beach, and it was a while since they had. Long enough for unaware visitors to make it a lot further from safety than they should get. And yeah, the wet sand should be a clue, but people aren't born with the innate knowledge of how quickly beach sand does or does not dry off. So you either learn this lesson about the ocean from friend/family, or you learn from videos like this, or you learn from a close call... or a not-so-close call.
