Holy shit the next to last video on that site... the boat was pretty far away and still got fucking hammered with flying rocks at the end. My heart goes out to these people, fuck. Can you imagine just enjoying an idyllic day with your family and then nature just fucks you up?
And that's the reality of our situation. Faggots run around with hurt feelings and think something can be done to "stop hate". Meanwhile Universe — through its agent Nature — gives absolutely no fucks about anybody. Oh wait, I forgot: "God loves you." There; does everybody feel better now?
It might have done nothing to save me, but I would've been out of that boat faster than a whore that stumbled into church. I mean, make a running leap. I can't fathom just watching the shadow of that thing spread over me and just freezing as it descends.
Then again, I have the bias of being an observer. It probably all seemed much faster in reality. The time it required to even realize what was happening might have been too long.
That is actually a fear of mine, that some crazy ass very unlikely disaster will be headed my way and I'll just freeze, thinking surely I must be interpreting what my eyes are seeing incorrectly.
The only recurring dream I've ever had - it's been a lifelong recurring one - is that I walk away from a group of people (the situation always changes), and I am alone. I am always alone outside. I see a tornado in the distance headed straight for us. I get terrified and want to shout to warn everybody, but I can't make a sound and I can't move my feet. I'm just watching this thing getting closer and closer.
I guess the difference is that, in the dream, I am not confused about the danger of the twister. It's probably some symbolic thing anyway; what I'm scared about is incoming danger, and my brain supplies the tornado for whatever reason.
I do up to and including the moment of. It's not always the same event or activity, but I get to play it out up to the moment I succeed or perish. It could be a battle situation or involve a motorcycle or zombies etc, but I've gotten pretty good at "controlling" myself in the dreams and often remember when I eventually wake up.
Occasionally, I'll wake up with a heart pounding jerk and fall back asleep right back into the scenario for a redo.
Your subconscious is trying to tell you something in recurring dreams, or extremely vivid ones. Check The Interpretation of Dreams by Freud. Whatever else he was, he knew this part well

Don't know if you've ever actually experienced a tornado before, but speaking as an Okie, if it makes you feel better no one would be able to hear you shout at them over one anyway. They're fucking LOUD. ;-)
It's easy to figure out how to escape death from the comfort of a computer chair at home. But in the situation when you're just out on the boat having fun the last thing you're prepared for is a freak accident like this let alone comprehend how to escape it in a matter of seconds
I've always been impatient with people who say nature protects us. Nature is indifferent. Planet Earth just does its thing, often violently. It doesn't love you and protect you because you buy carbon credits and stop using plastic cutlery.
The red boat made it. That other white one, well the gray plume of smoke is not a good sign.
EDIT: Holy shit, I kid you not, if you pause it at the 5 second mark you will see a guy launched into the air spread eagled with a red shirt on. There is also a yellow splotch to the left that may be another person.
A book I am reading ended with this being part of the ending. The complete collapse of and entire wall while folks are doing wizard shit inside. The soldiers ran while the wizards kept fighting.
Man. What are the odds of that happening when people are around to record it. Then imagine the odds that an entire section of rock face just slips as boats filled with bougie tourists are on the scene to not only witness it, but fall victim to such an awesomely powerful act of god.
Shit like that has always happened, but it's somewhere else and might maybe have made a paragraph in your local paper back you'd scan while looking for the comics page. But that was back when, and this is hyper world on vidya.

Do you actually dream the moment you die? And, are the causes different each time, or is the threat always the same?

Maybe it's preparation for something?
