Byron Bay's Main Beach has been washed away as wild weather batters the coast and one man was almost dragged into a ferocious tide as he tried to take a picture of the carnage.
The man can be seen taking a picture on precariously placed platform, which suddenly gives way underneath him as the waves crashed in on the beach this morning.
Fortunately he is not injured and manages to pull himself back up.
The beach's sand has been completely covered with water due to continuing storms and hundreds of trees have been washed away.
