I did something similar fifty years ago on the Gold Coast, Queensland. My girlfriend saved my life by pulling me out the water. I crushed C2/C3 which in spinal damage terms means quadriplegic. Somehow my spinal cord was not damaged. The luckiest day of my life. I wish this gentleman all the luck in the world - stay strong.
Those jetties go out a fair lick precisely because the near shore is very shallow.
I wish the guy well, but you've got to be a bit thick to dive into 60cm of water, just saying 🤷♂️
