It is Known as the "Pool of Death"

Mordhaussays...

It is now known as Queen's Bath, but it isn't the original. The original one was destroyed by lava in the 80's, so they just renamed the pool of death.

They are definitely locals and skilled swimmers. Others have died during the winter when the surf is routinely high, like in this video.

Those are Kauai locals swimming in Queen's bath.

They know what they're doing. Here is another video .

Yeah, I know people have died there, but I think those kids are regulars. The last kid jumped in just for the heck of it... The father, presumably filming them, didn't seem too worried to me. I think those boys have done that before. Crazy in my book, but maybe not in theirs.

When people do stuff like this and it goes horribly wrong the headlines are along the line of "Person tragically killed in <insert sport name here> accident". When it should be along the lines of "idiot tempting fate pays the price for their stupidity".

Tell you what, we should all just have a beer and chill back. I'd buy you one if you were close by and we'd forget about all of this.

Just calling it like I see it , just as the "smart" people seem to have the right to.

Maybe I have no patience for those who sling insults and or negativity?

That comment would ring a lot truer if you hadn't just called a bunch of people you don't know "fat slobs" in a "gene pool of wimpiness and sarcasm".

Seems there are always "a bunch" of twits who live to spoil the moment for others.

The fat slob bit was only directed at anyone who chooses to sit back and nitpick and not anyone who is simply overweight but upon reflection this was a Very poor choice of words.

My apologies to the non athletes among us.
