On the final day of the PWA Slalom in South Korea, Björn Dunkerbeck got a deep cut on his foot after crashing into his fin due to a plastic bag getting caught around it. Björn was at the hospital, when the 5th and final elimination got started.
Watch what Björn says about his crash, and when he will be fit again.
It’s is a bummer to hear what happened to Bjorn. The problem of marine debris and polluted water isn’t going away anytime soon. The Hawaiian Islands and the West Coast of the US is going to be hit with 30 million tons of debris from the Japan Tsunami in the next year! Check out what we are doing at Positive H2O and join the movement! We all need to come together to fight this man made problem.
So everyone,
try to keep the ocean clean, please!
Great vid of the journey of a plastic bag:
not just the ocean
polution is everywhere.(onshore spots are getting very dangerous) with so many people producing trash it couldnt be different.
