EP 185:  Eddie Would Go - The Legend Of Eddie Aikau

The story of a brave, selfless Hawaiian who risked his life surfing large waves and saving lives

The name Eddie Aikau is folklore for generations of Hawaiians.  Eddie was the first official lifeguard at Waimea Bay, on Oahu’s North Shore. During his time as a lifeguard, Eddie Aikau rescued over 500 people with not one life lost. He often risked his life, braving waves over 30 feet high. The brave, selfless Hawaiian died attempting to save his crew stranded at sea. This week we speak to Eddie’s brother, Soloman, and pay tribute to his life.
​
Here's what we discuss in this week's show:​​​
  • Soloman describes his brother Eddie. Who was he as a man?
  • The story of how Eddie disappeared
  • How did the famous saying “Eddie Would Go” come about?
  • Did Eddie ever feel fear?
  • Eddie had great Mana. What is Mana?
  • How does a man like Eddie get their Mana?
  • What is it about Eddie’s spirit that inspires generations?
  • He was a Hawaiin Waterman. Who is a Waterman?
  • What is Eddie's message for us in raising our children?

“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
― Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967
