    I was up there diving on a wreck just off the pictured rocks in 15 feet of water when that happened near us. Sounded like a a big jet flying over.

    What are the odds?? The drone passing by that exact spot as it happened *and* the kayakers almost getting killed below. Remarkable.

    It's amazing that the water splash went as high as the cliffs. As I recall, the cliffs are 200 feet high in some spots. The kayakers are lucky.

    Any chance this was planned. Someone saw some distress in the rock so they planned a controlled removal of the rock so it wouldn't hurt anyone. That's why they just happened to have a camera rolling and there were people in kayaks watching.
