It's freaque waves again. What else? This news just in from from South Africa with the headline "
Freak waves hit Durban beach" as
One man drowned and 18 others had to be rescued after being swept into the sea after a freak wave hit the main beach on Sunday.
The article described it as "Unexpected waves" since
It appears that, with the rising tide, a set of waves unexpectedly swamped the beach, sweeping 19 bathers wading in ankle-deep water off their feet.
All are rescued except
lifeguards and police doing cardio-pulmonary resuscitation on a man of about 40, but without success.
So even in the ankle-deep water, the unexpected onshore freaque waves still sadly took away one life unnecessarily on this otherwise nice Sunday afternoon on the beach.
