Nervy moment hapless tourists in Australia get perilously close to dangerous water spouts
- 5 years ago
The nervy moment is captured when a group of hapless tourists visit the Blowholes, an attraction in Western Australia and fail to avoid the much-ballyhooed water spouts at the location on August 25.
"The sea at the Blowholes is very dangerous – the Indian Ocean often produces large, reinforced waves, locally known as King Waves, that have swept rock fishermen and sightseers into the turbulent water or onto the sharp, oyster-covered rocks below, causing injuries and deaths. Despite very clear warning signs, dopey people continue to put themselves in harm’s way," said the filmer.
