Well out there in that vast ocean are "rogue waves" just looking for, 
well OK not quite, but people standing nearby on the rocks or shore 
completely unaware they are about to be picked up and swept away in the
blink of a shutter! . . . <snip>

Yes, indeed! Every year in Sydney, where I lived for 14 years, rock
fishermen are lost because of this. It's said that about every 7th
oceanic wave is a big 'un. Among those particularly at risk are
immigrants from Mediterranean countries, who aren't used to the
vigorous waves of the Pacific Ocean.
