Talking 747 blasts people on a beach

Have you ever been at the beach, minding your business, then comes along a gust of wind pushing you to the beach? Well, I haven't experienced it, but these people have.

Same here...whatever you do DO NOT let go of the fence! You will get thrown into the road and then the beach...I had little pebbles in my hair for days. It was completely worth it though!

...just because everyone else was doing it, doesn't make it right! If all your friends jumped off a cliff, would you do the same Alec?

Why would jumping out of a plane be worth it?

Why would riding a raft down a river worth it?

Why would climbing a mountain be worth it?

Been there and done that too. Not the smartest thing I've ever done but it's was damn cool. Everyone has done stupid stuff in their life so I don't want to hear anyone complaining about how unsafe this is. It was definitely cool!!!
