That is sooo funny~!!! The same thing happened to me when we were there in April!! I didn't pay any attention to these signs and was just soooo excited to watch this jet take off. Well, all of a sudden I felt this heat and just as I thought, "uh-oh!", the sand started beating against us so hard it was like being sand blasted live!! Well, my friend started running as fast as she could into the ocean, and I thought good idea so I started running as fast as I could to the water when common sense took over and said, "hey, Mar, you have your brand new digital video camera around your neck along with your digital camera!"(thank goodness b/c I was already about knee high in salt water-cameras would of been history!) So, I just ran back up to the sand and crouched down as tight as I could and waited it out. My skin was bright red afterwards and I found sand in every crevice of my body!! After our husbands quit laughing at us, I decided I need to have a refreshing beverage after that trauma, when I discovered that my lanyard around my neck that I keep my S&S card in and I also put my drivers license in there too along with some cash was EMPTY!! I guess when I was running like my life depended on it, I ran so hard that everything flew out of that plastic pocket!! Can you believe that??? What a NIGHTMARE!!:eek:
Love all these pictures!! Can't wait for my cruise in 14 DAYS!! WOOHOO!!:D :D
That's pretty much my story too...except it was a big Corsair 747 so the wind was so strong that I didn't run towards the ocean, I was pushed towards the ocean..my feet weren't touching the ground anymore. I said to myself "here it is...I'm going to drown...this is the end...". Just a couple of feet into the water, the plane took off and the wind stopped...and I was still alive!
My husband, having no idea that I came this close to my death (:p) was filming the whole thing from the sunset bar. So I will always have a souvenir of my near death :D

Nooooooo! LOL And all those people are looking too like what the ???
Exactly! I'd panic and run. I guess maybe they were warned.
No way!!!!!!! That is jacked up. I wonder how many planes missed that landing?
I can tell you, you don't want to be in the middle of the beach when a plane takes off....... I did......and I thought I was going to die! I know...very stupid of me...I never saw this :
