As someone pointed out, even if you're waist-deep a wave can make it neck-deep just long enough for you to get into trouble. The other factor is the bottom. The place where the tragedy occurred has bowling ball sized rocks, so if your foot gets wedged a bit and you stumble for a second and go down on one knee (even pushed by a small wave), you're effectively neck-deep there and water can come in.
I am rethinking my entire approach, including wading alone at nite.
