Lived in Oregon for 30 years and there are 2 to 3 tourist that die annually due to sneaker waves. They can happen at any time. We almost lost my father-in-law to one while they were visiting. He was rescued by a Coast Guard Motor Launch 75 yard off the beach. He is a experienced surfer and said the rip tide was stronger then anything he has been in. He was so exhausted he almost gave up when he saw the Coast Guard coming. Thank you to the men and women of the USCG Chetco Station who risk their lives to save everyone else.
Wow, glad your father in law made it out safely. I had a boss in Houston Texas who's daughters best friend was taken by a rip current as well as her father who dove in to rescue. Didnt know it was that bad in Oregon, good thing to keep in mind when I make a trip up that way one day.
I agree since it always seems like people forget about their pets when something like this happens. But considering he was running free I had faith he'd be wise enough to run in the other direction. He/she actually seemed the least phased out of all the humans.
When i lived in WA, there were many stories of people being overwhelmed on the beaches and taken out to see or hit by logs of wood in the waves. You really have to pay attention in the Pacific NW
We lived in Port Angeles, took regular day-trips to Lake Ozette and Neah Bay area. Grandma taught us to always watch the ocean and look for waves that seem to be 'stuck' or piling up on each other. The signs are there for some time before it gets bad, but on a shallow beach like this it can get bad really fast!
The piling up waves are always a sign to get back and go up. I've live in the PNW all my life and it never ceases to amaze me the number of people who live here and are oblivious to the power of the water.
This is why you never turn your back to the ocean. Born and raised in Oregon, even worked at Haystack Rock in Cannon Beach. People will take their strollers right up to the tide level and think nothing of it. People will even walk around the rocks during extreme low tides, putting their bodies between a rock and the waves, without realizing a big sneaker wave could catch them any time and crush them up against the rocks.
As a full blooded, born & raised Oregon kid, I know our ocean, rivers and lakes all too well!... Our coastal waters and rivers are not only powerful but frigid cold and will steal your breath away!....
@@namastezen3300 the point was that you'd hear the klaxon ahead of time so you wouldn't be expecting any tsunami coming at you before then. And then ya got 7-8 minutes to skidaddle right?
@@stevejensen3471 thank you for your reply. I apologize for the confusion. The warning system klaxon will sound for tsunami warning pacific rim earthquakes that may take an hour or more to arrive. If you feel an earthquake, you have 7-8 minutes to exit inundation zones before the tsunami arrives (& no klaxon will sound). This video clip shows a storm surge on top of a king tide; while the inundation is dramatic, it is a fraction of the impact of a tsunami. all the best regards to you.
This is new to me. Frightening. Atlantic not like this, that I know of. Absolutely incredible to watch the water coming and coming and coming. Yikes! Beautiful but obviously deadly. Thank you for your video. I would like to see a drones coverage of that.
From the moment the video began you could hear the roar coming. Flash floods have a similar roar. When I hear that sound I know to be aware and move to high ground! It reminds me of 'white noise' or an old TV trying to dial in a UHF channel, but the volume is turned way up. LOL
Man I remember when Neskowin had a walkway by the cafe but now the river has washed it all away. All before the neighborhood was built on the beach. Love it there 🤍
When the beach is wet looking along ways out , you can bet you're going to have a tidal surge . And if it flat out disappears almost out of sight ?... Head for high ground and don't wait around to see it coming .

@@mikem2986 Our room was at the Proposal Rock Inn, 31 years ago today. On our second anniversary, we went down there on a day trip and, on a lark, decided to stay there again... We ended up in the same room.
My wife and I honeymooned there too and loved it so much we moved close by. I also had never seen the waves come this far and was truly caught off guard.
I love Neskowin and proposal rock. When my family starting going to the coast every year for vacation. Neskowin was a camp ground and it had a community kitchen. One year when we went there mybrother and I climbed to the top of proposal rock it was beautiful.
It's 11:13am and I'm standing on this exact beach and theres a sneaker warning. Lez gooo Neskowin is such a beautiful place and proposal rock is amazing.
No joke. That amount of water could have rolled and pulled the little kid further off shore where rescue would have been difficult. Even an adult could have fallen into icy water. Being soaked and cold in winter is a life-threatening situation. What it is about the PNW coast that leads to sneaker waves forming?
Ahh, Neskowin - one of the lovliest sleepy coastal hamlets onthe Coast! As a geological oceanographer out of OSU, I can tell you that normal sneakers are typically due to the nearshore topography and the mixed semidiurnal tidal regime which can often double up on tidal amplitudes forming extra-high surges or sneakers. That being said, the particular tides in this Jan 10 vid are called king tides which are a special extremely-high tide that forms when the Earth is at perigee (closest to the sun during our Northern Hemisphere winter) and when the Moon is directly between the Earth and towards the Sun - or during new moon phase around the 8th-12th of the month! Their technically know as perigean spring tides.
Fuck I was worried about the dog man. When you turned around back towards the beach from on top of the rocks, I couldn’t see the dog. My heart just sank.
At first, thought someone was using a telephoto lens. Turned nasty in a hurry when I saw those people and the camera shake. Very disturbing how close that was.
Oregon is among the places I would like to see. Bay of Foundry, Norwegian Fjords, far southern Chile, are others. Sure, sun and beach are fine, but I'm more drawn to the colder climates.
We fought the war on drugs for forty years. It didn't work! Oregon has had a drug problem the whole time. Why don't they try a different approach based on public health? Do you know what "harm reduction" means? Look at Portugal, it hasn't imploded yet. In fact, according to the Drug Policy Alliance, "The number of people voluntarily entering treatment has increased significantly, while overdose deaths, and HIV infections [...] have plummeted."
@@Psychol-Snooper It funny how you pretend to know everything going on without being there. Every single person in the video saw the wave was coming high at the same time I did and I was the farthest out. Nobody needed a heads up. Keep trolling, loser
@@Psychol-Snooper Normally I would agree with you. I saw a video with a girl holding her dog on the leash and letting it almost drown the other day and it made me so angry. Some people were defending her, but she saw the wave coming and moved incredibly slowly. In this case I think if the woman saw people running she should have had enough sense to know that she needed to get out of there quickly herself. Of course, I don’t think it would have hurt to yell for her to run either. But the warning signs were obvious here. It bugs me how nonchalant some people are (idk if that’s the right word exactly but hopefully you get my point).
If you see the water kind of turning into almost like a shelf and coming at you you should really be moving back. If you are foolish enough to stay standing where you are and lucky enough to manage to stay on your feet the rip current behind it is absolutely unreal.
We sat up on top of the rocks for about 10 minutes and the waves stayed pretty far out like where the video starts. The sound the waves started making when I was already filming is what made me realize to run. Tho others on the beach were already running
I been around that same spot when the same thing happened, didn't get it on video because I didn't see it coming and didn't know too much about the ocean
I've climbed the left side wall to that hole you can see through and have walked all around the top of the haystack but never saw a crack. How can I get to it? I freaking love that beach.
I mean I don't live here but in the state above Washington state and in summer I come here to enjoy the water for vacation. happy you uploaded this because of covid I couldent go this year but thank you so much for reminding me.
You also got yourself running past an elderly woman without even a shred of care for helping her up onto the rocks. But hey, you said excuse me as you wormed past them to keep your shoes dry. What a gentleman! 😣

In my opinion they are mini Tsunami waves. The wave length is too long for a regular wave. What it reminds me of is a possible underwater landslide. Not large enough to create a giant Tsunami but big enough to create a larger than normal wave with a long wave length to it. I also heard the guy say there were lots of them that day. That would coincide with a smaller underwater landslide, that destabilizes the area causing multiple landslides over a period of time. Just my thoughts.
Yeah, I'll take the Gulf of Mexico any day, thank you very much. Our idea of "heavy surf" wouldn't qualify as the foam on the crest of an average Pacific breaker.

When i lived in WA, there were many stories of people being overwhelmed on the beaches and taken out to see or hit by logs of wood in the waves. You really have to pay attention in the Pacific NW
The PNW is absolutely gorgeous. But if you're not careful, she will eat you alive without a second thought.
After the tsunami in the Indian Ocean, how could anybody not already be running for higher ground when they see the tide roll out like that?
This looks like a totally normal day at the beach in Oregon- that's why
Because people are still dumb as hell...
There’s a point in the video where you see it really form up, all the way down the coast… I would have started running from it immediately.
At no point did the tide pull out, speaker waves ate called that because there is no real warning other than the actual wave coming in
It's happens almost annually every year
As an old surfer never turn your back on the ocean!
Wouldnt u run faster though
Unless you scratchin, Edit, for the wave lol
Born and raised in Hawaii we were taught that as kids.
I went to Nazarine, Portugal and saw some big waves.

That poor dog
Whadaya mean...poor dog?!
He barely got his paws wet!!
@@larryslemp9698 poor doggie is way lower to the ground than his owners who he trusts to show him where is safe and they lead him right into a trap I wouldnt let my pupper out on the beach at that time growing up in Oregon you realize a lot of dogs also get swept out to sea
@@larryslemp9698 no. In a moment my camera flashes forward but I was looking back after the first step and the dogs was full swimming in foam and his head was barely above water because the two people were blocking him.
@@rhi963 I had the dog in my mind in this order. Family, myself, dog. The lady was fine and dog dad was helping her not paying attention to his dog, but I like to think he knew his lab can swim well and was ok. I learned a ton from this and know to warn others when conditions are like this.
Fortunately, the dog was not upset or scared by this experience - it just swam as necessary and then walked out.
