"...Just in from LACo Chief, Bob Burnside, Ret.:<br />"Cal's account of finding the victim the next day made me recall a similar eerie recovery at Point Zero... a Lady that committed suicide in the eel grass... while looking for her in 5 feet of eel grass (but really checking for bugs... suddenly when I parted the grass (which was really thick)... There she was... with her hair flowing with the eel grass and her eyes staring right at me... no more that 15 inches from my nose. I was about 20 yrs old and it scared the shit out of me... as I shot to the surface like a Polaris missile!!! Was without a doubt the most shocking experience I ever had as a lifeguard...
