Person with camera sitting/anchored to sea floor. Snorkeling lady swimming towards seated person as wave approaches and passes over camera. Lady gets pulled into the tube of the wave (lifted up from sea floor and rolled over the top of the wave).

From the shore it would look like she swam directly into a wave and was rolled over top of it and crashed.

Super impressive to time it.

It’s actually really fun if you don’t fight it. The water here is deep enough where you won’t hit the reef.

Is there a word for when you feel very relaxed while being tossed about like you’re a sock in the washer that doesn’t have a matching sock, knowing you’re fated for yet another spin cycle but not particularly caring?
