    Had the helmet but no life jacket. He does add the Drama to his reports. Going to be nasty tomorrow when they do damage assements. 145 mph winds only moving at 5 mph.

    I like to fish for Tarpon at the Boca Grand and my wife likes staying at the cottages at the Gasparillia Inn & club.
    I hope it will still be there when this is done,

    Of course he’s fine. The producer probably staged the entire thing.

    He is a clown. Although a rich clown, so good for him.

    i'll give it up to the guy, it was real and a huge wind gust had a bunch of limbs and branches flying around.
    probably a tree went down out of camera sight..
    That said, he did add a lot of drama to his earlier segments..
