Prayers are said for his safety -

The amateur video footage now starting to appear is horrifying when you realize that it is the last moments of those many poor souls caught in the surge.

Heard on MSNBC that actor/director Sir Richard Attenborough was on holiday there and lost both his daughter and grand-daughter.

This is a tragedy of almost unimaginable proportions in terms of damage and loss of life.

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
