The massive, unruly swell (too ugly for the Eddie) that has been pounding the North Shore of Oahu this week offered up another reason to never turn your back on Mother Ocean. A family was knocked down and washed completely under the road at Rockpiles. Luckily, Michael Borst was driving by at the right time.
“I was driving down the road I seen the wave come up and it washed the two girls and then I heard them screaming, and I pulled over here to the other side of the drain. She washed right to me and I grabbed her and the guy was right behind me and she was scared. I’m still in shock over the whole thing,” rescuer Michael Borst said.
A camera crew from KITV was there and caught it all on video. Click the link to watch the tourist takedown.
