Yeah I would have looked it up, but no sense, since this Com cant watch vids, But depending what angle...I thought it looked a little like our chinamans hat mini island:

There's another one out there that's even worse. More altitude involved, and the guy touches down on exposed coral ledge and/or inches of water atop said coral. I don't know if that guy lived, but I can't imagine the pain of walking away from that. I had a nasty encounter with sharp coral cave wall (and the urchins that lived there!) back when I was a kid. The wetsuit, it did nothing. Spent the next several days digging spines and coral bits out of my leg and ass cheek. My step dad's hot Irish girlfriend was there to assist, brandishing beer to boot, but it's still nothing I would ever want to repeat. And that was without the bone shattering impact that poor bastard took. Ugh.
Urchins? Vana (sharp ones) or ha'u ki u' ki (Flat headed ones)? I have had my share of vana long ago, thats minimum, being slammed on the pa'hoe'hoe reef is way worse, but its so popular and mostly every one who spends a margin of their lives here will eventually have it happen to them, which would lead them to knowing this song:

A classic, I havn't picked A'ama crab in a year, nor ha'u ki u' ki, opihi, pi'pi'i and other reef dwelling foods like the vareity of limo...its always fun in the day, but you can catch more crabs in the night; usually the time when the big ones come out, but we usually only pick for partys like a big Lu'au.
mmm getting hungry now. ^_^
