This could have been deadly

The main reason detecting Oregon beaches makes me a little nervous -- other than a subduction zone tsunami.

Why were you listening to them ?
Or just watching them as usual ?

I would say "go whoever"... but um... I do not even know a name of one player.

With that said.
Go panthers, heh

When you were yelling "get out of the way" , were you running over the kids and dogs and old people ?

I'm not a charter member?
When did that happen?

I don't think the OP (thread starter) made /shot the video.
I was born and bred on the Oregon coast....
When these waves occur...you have very little time to do anything.
I have run across driftwood heading for higher ground, and have heard/seen the destruction behind me.

Now that's a close call! Wow! MN at her finest, the lovely beaches can quickly turn into a disaster zone.

Yikes! Now that was mind blowing. I thought the kid and dog were toast. Good thing no one got hurt.

I near got caught in one when I was surf fishing years ago....... It gets your attention real quick.............................

These rogue waves can strike our coast 24/7/365. They typically kill in one of three ways: by drowning, by dashing against the rocks, or by catching folks in heavy driftwood, lifting logs and crushing them. It's a part of life on the Oregon coast.
The boy and the puppy were OK, but imagine if the boy had head headphones on, listening intently for a threshhold change in his PI machine.
