Watch! as the guy goes sailing through the air, with the greatest of ease! He shoulda' let go when he got slammed into the sand before he was yanked back up into the air and into the building (which you don't directly get to see).
OUCH!!!

POLITICIANS & DIAPERS NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON
A person properly schooled in right and wrong is safe with any weapon. A person with no idea of good and evil is unsafe with a knitting needle, or the cap from a ballpoint pen.
I remain pessimistic given the way BATF and the anti gun crowd have become tape worms in the guts of the Republic. - toad

The last I heard, the guy was in critical condition. I wondered why the heck he didn't let go?!

he panicked, simple as that... and from what i know about the area that he was in, the second hop he took was well over a 300yd flightDarrell wrote:The last I heard, the guy was in critical condition. I wondered why the heck he didn't let go?!

He must have been moving close to 50-60 mph when he hit the wall...double ouch!!
I bet he was one of those guys that yells , "Hey y'all watch this!", just before the wind carried him to his fate.

The part of that on the news I liked the best was the interview with the local head of the beach rescue. He was trying real hard to talk about how his people were handling the helping of fools who insist on being in the water during such a storm... just verbally tapdancing his way around what he was trying hard not to say plainly. That if those fools wanted to go out on those waves... the lifeguards were not going to risk their necks going out there to save them from their own stupidity.

Last I heard, the guy died. I understand he was buckled in, which makes just letting go pointless.
