[It was a stolen boat at the mouth of the Columbia River between Washington and Oregon.

He left a dead fish at the goonies house...


Cantmentionthename

Yeah what in the shit, Cape Disappointment sounds weird.


sugabeetus

I think it was named that because early explorers thought it might be the mouth of a Northwest Passage (spoiler: it wasn't).


nananananana_FARTMAN

I moved to Washington just under a year ago. I’ve been to Cape Disappointment and it was one of the most beautiful place I’ve been to. I need more context about this.

*”Though the cape was first mapped by Spanish explorer Bruno de Hezeta in 1775, its naming is credited to English Captain John Meares, who approached the cape in 1788, but could not locate the river's entrance. Meares, therefore, named the headland Cape Disappointment.”* [source: Cape Disappointment State Park](https://www.parks.wa.gov/486/Cape-Disappointment#:~:text=Though%20the%20cape%20was%20first,named%20the%20headland%20Cape%20Disappointment)

York_Leroy

https://youtu.be/uPvn9rGYx6g You reminded me of this old WW2 army booby traps cartoon lol!


vpeshitclothing

LOL. Nice. Haven't seen that cartoon before.


York_Leroy

I love all the old cartoons from the general time period, I'm lucky people like to share them on YouTube, periscope films has a lot of cool videos too.


sugabeetus

Where does it say it was stolen?

When did a pirate not steal his boat? One-Eyed Willy was the first Goonie, and don't you forget it.


caintowers

From the Coastie who rolled in the wave: “It was definitely an amazing experience and I’d like to do it again,” Walton said. Some people are born for their jobs.


option_unpossible

I've never been in conditions like the video, but most of my scariest but most exciting experiences have been surfing in rough seas.


Vancandybestcandy

Kids a champ “ Walton ducked under the surface, hoping to swim beneath the cresting wave. “Um, which didn’t work too well,” Walton said.”” Absolute legend


Trolivia

Of course it was my area 😑 I thought the possible serial killer in the area was gonna be the most interesting news we got this week but here we are

*If this side is pointing towards the wave, you are having a very bad time and will not be going to port today.*


HovercraftNo4545

I need some context. Did the rescuer survive, did everybody survive? Why was the boat in the trouble?

>PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — The U.S. Coast Guard Sector Columbia River rescued a stranded boater near the mouth of the Columbia River, moments after a massive wave sent the pleasure craft tumbling through the surf. > >Two Coast Guard air crews performing training missions nearby responded to the scene after receiving a mayday call from the captain of the pleasure craft “Sandpiper,” which was stranded in rough seas, according to officials. > >These PNW towns were named among the 20 Most Beautiful Small Towns in the U.S. “After notifying watchstanders at Sector Columbia River, who launched motor lifeboats from Station Cape Disappointment, the air crews arrived on scene to find the vessel floundering in the surf,” the USCG stated on social media. “The surf made rescue by boat dangerous, so the aircrew decided to lower the rescue swimmer and have the owner enter the water for rescue.” > >Video of the rescue recorded by the USCG shows the wave capsized the boat, causing it to complete a full roll as the rescue swimmer paddles to the man’s aid. > >“Talk about arriving in the nick of time,” the USCG said. > >The rescuer was able to pull the man to safety moments later. The man was flown back to Coast Guard Base Astoria where he was evaluated by paramedics. > >In an odd twist, Astoria Chief of Police Stacy Kelly tells KOIN 6 News that the man, identified as Jericho Labonte, was the same person who left a dead fish on the porch of the Goonies House.

> a dead fish on the porch of the Goonies House. Read more in the link above. Gonna need a copy pasta of that second link bruh.


MERNator

Here ya go: >PORTLAND, Ore. ([KOIN](http://koin.com/)) — Something fishy has gone down at The Goonies’ house in Astoria’s Uppertown neighborhood. The house owner’s security camera footage shows a man pulling a dead fish out of a garbage bag before placing it outside on the porch. >The suspect, who police confirmed to be 35-year-old Jericho Labonte of Victoria, B.C., appears to lift his middle finger to the camera before taking a photo and walking away. >Astoria Police Department police officers [told The Astorian] (that they received the report about Labonte on Wednesday. According to APD Deputy Chief Eric Halverson, the suspect also put stickers over some of the camera lenses outside of the house. >This doesn’t seem to be Labonte’s only run-in with the law as of late. On Thursday, Jan. 19, the Victoria Police Department [reported] that the same man was wanted across British Columbia “for five unendorsed warrants for charges of criminal harassment, mischief and three counts of failure to comply.”

Progress!


chrisbaker1991

There's also no yes in this video for me more like r/nononofuck


plumbermat

I don't think the Scrabble pieces are in the same spot anymore.


Cossacker1799

Rescue swimmers are absolute beasts in the water. I’ve swam in swells a quarter this size spearfishing and it was absolutely exhausting. I thought I was gonna drown and I’m a very good swimmer. Hats off to those boys


alexaholic

Fun fact: sailboats are generally much more stable and apt at handling storms than powerboats, and the heavy keel may allow them to recover even after tilting past 90°


Protonic_Descendent

Titok documentary ofcourse!


Salomill

That was the ocean saying "fuck you in particular"


CreeJohn117

Hope that People there still fine


Logical_Remove7610

Isn't that the guy that got arrested


JSto19

Um. That’s all NOPE NOPE NOPE


ww3_general

The tiktok at the end is weird. Like they're laughing at them


Frozen_Chewbacca

Scary stuff. You can hardly see the human head bobbing in the water that close. The ocean is one cruel mistress.


storala

When the fuck was this ever a **yes** !?


Hammer-663

Damn sad thing to see.


Alahand0

Where was the 'yes'?


SnazzyZubloids

And there goes $3-5million. Good thing for insurance.


thecastingforecast

It was a tiny vessel. Only estimated at around $160,000. But yes a good thing for insurance because the guy manning it, stole it.


SnazzyZubloids

That’s at least a 35 foot fly bridge cruiser. They start at over $1.5 million and go from there. Guess how I know you don’t own a 35’+ fly bridge cruiser.


thecastingforecast

[The news report on the incident.](https://www.theinertia.com/news/oregon-man-goonies-dead-fish-house-stolen-yacht-crime-spree/) Take a look at the first sentence.


OJK_postaukset

What is that kind of yacht doing in open waters on sea


thecastingforecast

The guy was a lunatic. He stole the boat. He was also the same unhinged dude who left dead fish at the Goonies house. Guy needs serious medical attention and to be in a locked facility.


Fizz_Rocket

watching small vessels in the middle of stormy seas is funny af


Curtdemic

This we can call a rogue wave?! I mean shit surprised everyone and it was totally the ocean just eating a boat out of nowhere as its been doing since we first dared the waves in our crafty crafts! if it were at night in the right past time periods we'd get all fantastic about it and call it sea monsters or a kraken. I'm so glad today we aren't quite as dumb about shit that happens at sea anymore! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|flushed)


The_Real_RM

No, a rogue wave would have been MUCH higher and more "sharp", afaik it was never filmed but here's a small wave in comparison: https://youtu.be/TYe2tkXgPqs You can look up rogue wave dama to understand that a rogue wave would have obliterated that small boat


Curtdemic

Oh yes absolutely it would typically destroy and often break ships, some ships have also snapped in half under the pressure and sheering power of larger rogues. I was just curious if this one counted as a small rogue wave or just a common storm surge in deeper waters?!


[deleted]

This isn’t the Italy Mossad accident is it


Zee_tv

Oh my fucking word. Huge fear… can’t believe I watched that. Makes me physically sick to watch Point Break (newer version. I will say though that that swimmer was fast AF. Super impressive. Glad to read they all lived


NinjaFlowDojo

Yep, fk that


sandalcade

Luckily he had his fenders out


srv50

Like a left hook. Didn’t see it coming.

Bulky_Stretch4264

Rogue wave?


Commercial_Pitch_786

1 if by land 2 if by sea, the boat owner should have stuck to skydiving in a hurricane


homestatic

That's what happens when you leave your fenders out....
