While Hurricane Dorian’s up-to 220 mph winds were battering the Bahamas, one brave soul there ventured forth to issue a dire message to the world: “Send beer.”

A Nassau tourism web cam captured the moment the unidentified beach-comber ambled out onto the sand to scrawl the message at around 1:30 p.m. — around the same time the monster Category 5 was harrowing Great Abaco Island about 90 miles north after making landfall there around 12:40 p.m.

The man appears to sign his handiwork “G7DAZ.”

It might not be entirely out of character for Bahamians, who are known to be pretty mellow.

“When your home resembles paradise, it’s pretty easy to see why so many Bahamians have laid-back attitude,” the island’s promotional site says. “In general, we like to say, let’s worry about the bad things tomorrow.”
