Him (the missing bod - look at his pic on the BBc page) or the post?

Crossing a causeway like that on a flooding tide is foolhardy in the
extreme. Especially if you have camping gear with you. Just set up and
wait for the next low tide. You would think an "outdoor pursuits
instructor" would know that was the best course of action.

No, it's what's known as a top-posting [censored].

I'm very surprised. Crossing a fast river that's only knee-deep is
extremely difficult - your legs just don't go where you want them to!
Crossing a tidal flow that's getting deeper by the second is insane.
Sad, though, of course.

Ray Mears suggests supporting yourself with a long *strong* bit of wood at
about 30-45 deg on the downstream/current side of you.

On any Usenet newsgroup, *truth* is defined by the person or
group who shout longest and loudest.
It is not related to any reality. :-(
