I think our environment 175 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,199 Speaker 4: with surfing constantly changes, so we're kind of used to 176 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 4: so we have to like think on our toes. 177 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 3: A little bit. 178 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 4: And then we're kind of used to being put in 179 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 4: situations where you're like, Okay, this is kind of crazy 180 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,319 Speaker 4: and scary, like if you're surfing big waves and you're 181 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 4: kind of feeling uncomfortable, but you have to breathe through it. 182 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 4: You can't like freak out because if you freak out, 183 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 4: it's gonna be worse for you. Yeah, and then it's 184 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 4: like just I think, you know, I've been surfing my 185 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 4: whole life, so I have that like endurance, So I 186 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 4: think there is something to say with like that definitely 187 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,559 Speaker 4: helped me. And I feel like if I didn't have that, 188 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 4: I would have been out, you know, on the first 189 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 4: day for sure, because mentally I don't think I was, 190 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 4: you know, as strong as you. 191 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: I just I don't know.

But I 197 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:41,959 Speaker 1: ended up seeking good because I didn't know. 198 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, because you don't have your kids, you don't have 199 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 2: the stresses of normal life, and we're freaking exhausted every 200 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 2: time we got the chance to finally lay down totally completely. 201 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, Like I was worried about that was my biggest 202 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 4: worry going into it. I'm like, how am I going 203 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 4: to sleep on a cot? But then I think you're 204 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 4: just so exhausted, and I ended up sleeping kind of. 205 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 2: Good, totally okay. So I would like to know. I 206 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 2: know in the mirror room you talked about with Bethany 207 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 2: Hamilton and her you were with her when she right 208 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 2: when she was bit by the shark. And what I 209 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 2: want to know is that obviously was a very traumatic 210 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 2: experience for you growing up. Does Special Forces replace that 211 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 2: as your most traumatic experience or. 212 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 4: I mean, I feel like, you know, I mean, because 213 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 4: I was so young at the time, I feel like 214 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 4: I bounced back way faster than a bit happened now. 215 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 4: But I mean seeing yeah, I mean I did see 216 00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 4: my friend's arm get bit off, and I it's a 217 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 4: little bit uncomparable, I guess, but I compare the Special 218 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 4: Forces to like giving birth, wow, because I feel like, 219 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 4: I mean, I had my both of my kids naturally, 220 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 4: and I feel like they're like in par like. 221 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:18,439 Speaker 1: In different ways. 222 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 4: But I mean, yeah, like the shark attack, like that 223 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 4: was just more traumatic I think long term. And but 224 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 4: like my reasoning behind doing Special Forces was like seeing 225 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 4: my dad react. He saved her life, like he got 226 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 4: the Turner kid on her arm, and I was like, 227 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,319 Speaker 4: I want to do that, Like because I have kids now, 228 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 4: I'm like, I want to do that for I mean, 229 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 4: hopefully my kids never are in that situation, but you 230 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 4: just never know, and especially having boys, they just get 231 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 4: into everything.
