\u00a0if he did, the boat would have excellerated vertical in the air and somebody would have died. \u00a0so purposely, he slowed down to the minimal just so the boat would make it over as gently as possible. \u00a0only a captain knows the capability of his boat. \u00a0thank goodness nobody got hurt. \u00a0anyway, if you see a boat excellerating straight over a wave, that&#8217;s the sign of panic. \u00a0if you panic, you die. \u00a0if you keep calm, you live. \u00a0so when you go on a boat, chose your captain wisely. \u00a0just because he has a nice boat, it doesn&#8217;t mean he knows what he&#8217;s doing.<\/p>\n<p>note: \u00a0even for calm and experienced captains, close calls like this will humble you. then when you go home, you will thank Mother Ocean for protecting you. \u00a0because that&#8217;s exactly what happened&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"TsQ5AgnUQKA\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Taxi Boat - Accident at Teahupoo - May 2022\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TsQ5AgnUQKA?start=98&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>the last big swell at Teahupoo, Tahiti. \u00a0there was a very close call regarding that orange\/yellow boat. \u00a0when i first saw it, i got chicken skin. \u00a0being a captain myself, i understand the risks of putting your boat in the perfect spot so the photographer can get the photo. \u00a0i&#8217;ve done it many times and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-122224","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-kirbyblog"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/122224","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=122224"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/122224\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":122229,"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/122224\/revisions\/122229"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=122224"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=122224"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=122224"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
