After all the JOB Vlogs, live comps and coverage you’d be forgiven for thinking Pipe wasn’t as dangerous as everyone tries to make out. Maybe it was ‘dangerous’ in the 80’s. Nope. Pipe is not your average wave. It is heavy as all f***, breaks on un even reef and is second to none in dishing out serious injuries and death. In fact I was only having a conversation the other day about how intense the stuff JOB is doing actually is and how it was a wonder now one was getting seriously hurt. Anyway, this day JOBs luck ran out. 36 seconds unconscious under water (lucky he was wearing a vest and everyone the water and the beach is on it at Pipe). Was on the cards for a while, luckily didn’t end in tears.
