Saw those pics on SailingAnarchy forum a year ago...

I just can't imagine what was going through the guy's head... He'll never make that mistake again!

There were also a few pics of a surfer rescuing the fool.

Kitey! See you finished that stand-up-paddle and had a quick test!

Bit unlucky there! Might have been a bad choice to go for the section where the big waves are breaking..but maybe he was looking for some fun?! :? :shock:
