Interview result (text of the interview: Purely descriptive)

Eight to 10 years back we were in big boat near Pasabander (Iran) when suddenly the sea water receded (under our boat) and we found the boat to come down on the sea bed. Then after sometime (few minutes) water level rose up again. It happened many times and boats were destroyed by colliding with each other as well as by hitting on the ground. Sea water retreated around 1.5 kilometers from normal shoreline
