      I know, right? I think I need to go look at a beige wall for a few minutes to calm down.

    Dang I think this is really cool. Never really thought about what it looks like under a wave. Have always been jealous of the awesome view surfers get as the surf through the tube of a breaking wave.

      Well… You don’t really want to open your eyes in the ocean.

        As long as you wear eye protection like goggles or a snorkel mask, the ocean is amazing to look at underwater.

    What is the scale of this? Am I looking underneath a huge wave or an adva?

          With this kind of conversation we truly have outgrown the capitalist original system.

    Are these the same mechanics forming tornadoes? Could a superstorm produce these?
