[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know someone who was impaled with a rogue flying beach umbrella on a family vacation.[/quote]

This is such a fear of mine. [/quote]

I was at the beach recently over spring break and these people were trying to get their umbrella into the sand by twisting it left and right, left and right, and I said to my husband "that ain't gonna cut it" and sure enough a huge gust of wind hit and it came flying directly at me, pole side directly coming right at me. I flung myself out of my chair and hit the ground! Everyone freaked out after that! I went over and showed them how to properly get it in there, and they were barely listening, just shaking from it. I'm like, same....[/quote]

This happened to me too. The person who had put the pole in the sand was infuriatingly cavalier about the whole thing. I got a concussion and my vacation was ruined, but it could have been so much worse.

You need to have the kids who rent out the umbrellas put them in the sand for you. They know how to do it. And if you own an umbrella, learn how to place it correctly.[/quote]
