LOS ANGELES, CA - JULY 24: Lifeguards and bodysurfers try in vain to reach a bodysurfer who was killed by huge waves that dashed him into the rocks of a jetty at The Wedge as a winter storm with 50-knot winds in the Southern Hemisphere off Tahiti generates high surf at south-facing southern California beaches on July 24, 2009 in Newport Beach, California. Surf forecasters predict that wave faces at The Wedge could reach 12 to 20 feet at high tide through the weekend. The Wedge is well-known among surfers for its swell that reflects off a jetty and back into other swells in the wedge-shaped water between the beach and jetty to produce dangerously big surf in water that can be as shallow as three feet. Inland, triple-digit heat is driving many people to seek relief at area beaches and is causing heightened wildfire weather conditions. David McNew/Getty Images/AFP
