@_LukeCSkywalker @InternetH0F The dude is standing in wet sand, so water at least splashed over the wall prior to the big one.
I agree that it was more powerful than the others or that the tide came up higher.
Have a good one
English

@CrackerBill67 @InternetH0F Okay, see the debris here? Nothing had run over the wall prior to this.
Storms often generate rogue waves. So yes, heavy surf *within which* was a rogue wave. Whether we want to argue the exact terminology, either way, it's clear it was more powerful than the others.

English

@_LukeCSkywalker @InternetH0F I grew up 2 blocks from there, the street runs downhill from that wall.
It sucks that 8 looky loos got knocked on there ass.
There was a fire truck parked right there to inform people of the danger.
True rogue waves are not predictable but I don't want to play semantics.☮️
English

@CrackerBill67 @InternetH0F lol, no, that's not a "decent set." When 8 people get injured, one critically, and the surf runs down the street for half a mile, that's not "heavy surf."
That's a rogue wave. But hey, I've only lived oceanfront for 17 years, wtf do I know.
English

@HowThingsWork_ The take from this should be that baking soda is an accelerant for super glue and the combo can make for a filler in a pinch.
How did the screw get stripped if it came out that easy?
English

@_LukeCSkywalker @InternetH0F The street side of the wall was already wet from previous waves breaching it.
By rogue wave if you mean a decent set, you are correct.
English

@CrackerBill67 @InternetH0F It's a rogue wave during heavy surf at high tide. The streets were dry, so this wasn't the normal surf.
English

@InternetH0F It didn't exactly happen suddenly.
It is already wet on the street side of the wall, so not the first wave to breach it.
It's whitewash from heavy surf on top of a high tide.
English

@_LukeCSkywalker @InternetH0F It's just heavy surf at high tide.
The wet sand is because the waves had already made it that far.
English


@jw_stickman @InternetH0F 👍I grew up on Pierpont; that's the end of Seaward.
English

@DareAdebay43685 @InternetH0F You can predict high tide and high surf.
This is the combination of both.
English

@InternetH0F Wow ! This is why I don’t go to the beach ! You can not predict what water demons can do
English

@Viralfizz Regardless of safety, how long is it going to last that close to the splatter.
I'm a complete hack and the answer for me is less than a day so about 12 inches of weld.🤔😂
English

@TB1Kinobe Not a fan of shingle overs?
They do tend to have more problems.
☮️
English

@soarsnob @TB1Kinobe It's roofing cement i.e. mastic or bull in US jargon.
It belongs on every asphalt based roof jobsite for many reasons.
In many places (wind) code (+good sense) requires the shingles at eaves and rakes be adhered and bull is an approved method.
English

@TB1Kinobe If you follow the cutting/nailing schedule, the nails never get close to the butt-ends of the shingles..
Only amateurs and idiots bring a can of sealant to a roofing job..
English

@NoDMsPerfavore It is used to treat van aerial disease😄
A punchline from a stupid joke that was popular at the same time.
English

@Viralfizz Technically, to continue the load path.
English

@sizzle_sarah When it's an overpriced dealer part but Home Depot is your "Work Store".
If it survives the first dozen fast revs, It will probably work for a while.
English

@Mericamemed Correct;
It will be restorable like when they threw wall to wall carpeting over hardwood floors.
The granite is still there.
They will have much more maintenance over the next 20 years and than a younger couple will spend 3 weekends stripping and polishing it.
English

@ClownWorld He could be checking for defects for all that is shown🤔
English

@MaryTilesTexas I'm an oldish guy and couldn't keep up with you.
I have a sincere respect for those that are sweating in my stead, been there👍

@Arcfunmi No wage earning painter needs training wheels on their brush.
Does he have a narrower one for between the top casing and the ceiling as seen at 28 seconds?
