Double sneaker wave close call!! 4K

Two sneaker waves almost take out family with dog in front of my very eyes on Christmas day!!

Twice!!

This is Southern Oregon Beach Whiskey Run. A very long flat shallow beach. Be careful if you visit and stay away from the piles of driftwood.

Thanks for watching and subscribing it helps my small channel tremendously!

Logs in weird places are a good warning sign of sneaker waves. Getting hit by a log propelled by a sneaker wave would ruin someone's Christmas real quick.

"I'm staying close to the road..." (immediately walks back out onto the beach) LOL Beautiful footage, by the way... thanks for sharing!

Videos like this almost assuredly save lives.

All of the tourists in the comments saying that there's no danger here are the ones we Oregonians hear about in the news. Listen. I've gone to the beach since I was a kid. When you're standing in even just the normal waves, you have to constantly move because the force of the tide pulls the sand out from under your feet, burying you up to your ankles in seconds. I myself have nearly fallen over from surprisingly strong waves. Even a "pathetic" six inches of water has a pull that can yank you out to sea in seconds. It's not something to mess around with. Ever.

Live on the southern Oregon coast and "Sneaker waves are the real deal. I have seen titles of Ytube videos like oregon coast danger no one talks about. Well I hear about them almost every day. Don't turn your back on the Pacific Coast at all, it will grab you. Also stay out of the driftwood piles the logs you are climbing on can weigh tons and the shallow sneaker waves can toss them around like match sticks. Also those logs can be loosely stacked on each other and will move and shift without warning. Be safe and alert when hiking on any Pacific Coast Beach.

The dogs running around without a leash gave me anxiety 😬 I mean of it can carry trees, it can carry a dog

Oh my god, I went into shock from how smooth and clear this camera footage is. It’s so good 😩

Meanwhile, in another video, people are filming this guy up the coast going "wow, see how dangerous these sneaker waves are. Wonder how that guy is..."

Never ever heard of a sneaker wave, they remind me a bit of a mini tsunami when they come out of nowhere and keep coming in.

Never turn your back on the ocean and always stay close to an exit route.

*When you see nothing but an entire white line and receded water with a roaring sound coming at you, you are in trouble.*

Thanks for posting this. I had no idea what a sneaker wave looked like. Pretty scary. I'm afraid of the ocean, and I was so nervous for the dogs!

[emmicah]

"Those people better run. Oh shit! I'm running too!" 😂

I live at the beach.
Sneaker Wave?
If the area your standing on is wet. There’s a reason for that!!

I spent a few years in the early 2000s living in Cannon Beach on the coast of Oregon. These sneaker waves are no joke. If you go for a walk on the beach in the winter I recommend not straying too far from dune grass and/or a path off the beach just in case one of these waves comes in and never turn your back on the ocean any time of year.

Yep .. no matter how far away the breakers may seem .. if the sand underfoot is wet .. not a good place to be.

Great video! Such clear and high quality images...too bad cameras of this quality seem incapable of capturing ufo footage 😆.

I’m from SoCal so when I was on a road trip through Oregon coast we stopped at a beach like this near cape perpetua. We didn’t get any sleeper waves but i really got freaked out when I realized how flat the beach was with wet sand all the way up to the cliffs. Glad no one was hurt

Never even heard of a 'sneaker wave' until tonight....when a man drowned & his 2 sons are missing...{Pacific Ocean}.... play with that your own risk...

[buffalokay]

That’s wild. One minute there’s dozens of feet of shoreline, and the next there’s none!
