Dang, sounds like a really close call. That’ll definitely buy you a phobia.
People can drown / get pulled far into deeper water p easily in some beaches, even in relatively shallow water (chest high). Just a few months ago a guy that owns a well known restaurant here tried to save someone from drowning in a situation similar to yours. He and 2 other people that also tried to help drowned trying to rescue the person, who also didn’t make it. Was all over the news. Some beaches’ll fuck you up.
Thanks for sharing and glad you’re OK.



Good aspirations. Hope you accomplish them.
