he looked far enough from the beach when jumping...

yes, it looks like far enough...so very interesting so see that it wasn't enough!

Good reminder to keep even more distance and make sure you don't do it directly in front of people...

spleeft: good that you posted it! it should be on the main forum...I will add it there.

I think it depends on the different people on the beach.

Not sure what I would have done...maybe help out quickly and see if someone got hurt. Then take the air out of the kite and call the guy's end of the day...after giving some safety advices...
