What BBN said about it

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThe town of Surf City, North Carolina, has formally denied a marina project, according to the Wilmington Star-News, and the paper is asking what happens next.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentWe don't have their footage, so here's file footage of surfers just sitting in turquoise water, and look at this, nobody's even in a hurry.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorIt's a group of people on boards, floating.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentWatch this, the whole group drifts left together, and that is a coordinated team move with zero coordination.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorWait, run it back.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentYou care.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI'm only saying the guy on the far edge keeps scooting away from the pack, and I respect a loner who still wants a good wave.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentViral Score: seven out of ten, because nothing happens for twelve seconds and I'd still watch it twice.
