Today, I almost drowned in the ocean after being sucked into a rip current. When I finally managed to make it back to shore breathless from all the energy it took to get back, I looked down and my swimming trunks were gone. I was crawling on the ground naked in front of a hundred people. FML

And by the way... This was not a FAKE experience. It scared the living shit out of me. I admit...I didn't know anything about the ocean or rip "CURRENTS" but now I do. Thank's for the knowledge guys, I've lived at the beach for 4 years and never swam in the ocean because I didn't like swimming in the ocean. Now u see why. There were NO lifeguards...This was at CAROLINA BEACH!! Just outside of Wilmington NC. If you know me, yup..I'm a dumbass for this. It's funny you say that. The water WAS murky and choppy. It ran along side a big ass pile of rocks that stretched out into the ocean. I didn't want to hit the rocks though for fear of injury. Fighting the rip current was a dumbass idea. After I ran out of energy trying to swim I just gave up and floated on my back and the waves helped push me back to shore. I really didn't give a shit about people seeing my dick. Im a sexy beast. haha

Well one good thing is that you're alive. And if you're hott, then don't worry, a lot of people probably enjoyed the sight. [:

You´re alive, so who cares about your junk swinging in the breeze?

rip tides are awful = ( And it's common to lose your bathing suit during one. At least you're a strong swimmer and didn't keep going under. Because that might render you unconcious from lack of air and than a lifegaurd would have to carry you out, naked, in front of everyone. that's not fun...

I have never seen a riptide or been in a riptide. They sound like they play on your fears..
