Tourists are associated with Terrorists. They struck fear in the locals 😂
I’m going to the big island in a couple weeks and I just recently heard about this spot. My first thought when I looked at it was you could easily get swept away. I’ll get close enough to the edge to take a peek, but that’s as far as I’m going.
Ive seen some BIIIIG sharks here..
Word of advice, Hawaiian waters are NOTHING like anywhere else in the world…
You can be a badass swimmer in Ca or even Florida, but those onshore breaks and those crazy currents will get you..
I saved a few people over in Kahena Black sands in Puna a few times..
I never swim without fins..ever!!
I love how people on vacation ignore all signs
I still use that hoist to get my boat up and down, my fish too
DLNR ??? STUPID DISRESPECTUL TOURIST
I wonder how/where the victim was found. How far out they got pulled. Did they die because they just couldn't tread til help arrived? Or because there were crashing waves smashing them?
Showing a safety video on arriving flights is a good idea.
Mother nature will win every time know your limits don’t mess with her.
Don't shed tears. The unfortunate made a risk management choice…sign or no sign. Kanaloa needs an offering now and then.
Imagine in the next couple years you can sue the ocean and Hawaiians have to pay for accidents or deaths….. lol America is crumbling with politics.
some people just aren't too bright 😛😜🤪. darwin award awaits them.
It’s a famous current here that can drag you out for hundreds of miles
I’ve done this jump a bunch of times. It is also shark infested with fishermen fishing right next to u when u jump lol. Sorry for your loss def not worth it!
I was just there last week and the locals told me it wasn’t the best day and that someone had died a week before. As bummed as I was to not be able to jump I know I made the right decision to walk away.
We were there on the 16th just 3 days later. A young couple was going to jump but didn’t. Hearing this makes me more thankful they did not do it
I was there last Tuesday There was no way that I’d jump off that cliff RIP. Aloha Nui 🌺🌸😎
I just got back from the Big Island and there was days I went in the water and some days I would not step a foot in the water based on the surf. It is really common sense especially when the locals say don't go in the water.
Tourist don’t listen to locals, I was on Kauai at the top of the water fall at Waimea Canyon and this tourist was hanging off a tree over hanging the cliff side and I told him it wasn’t a good idea he just snubbed me & told another tourist not to go under a water fall on Maui that a person had died under the previous day from a rock that fell over the water fall and they just ran past us, never will help a tourist again don’t need their attitude & don’t feel sorry anymore they don’t listen
News reporter: put on sleeves. You look unprofessional.
Hard to feel sorry, when you knew the risks and dangers associated with this activity, nonetheless May All the Deceased R.I.P
Hawaiians: Eh, no jump into the water it's dangerous.
Haoles: Ah, ya'll don't know what ya'll takin bout.
Result: Death wish
