Wonderful to see something new from Alex, even while we are all staying home. (And funny enough – no hiatus beard)
Great to see Trident Adventures co-owners Alex and Beulah Koale with their hardworking partner, one of the other owners, Steve Kaplan, sending a message to the Make-a-wish foundation.
We know that with the present lockdown, it is also difficult times for their business at Trident Adventures. While they can’t do business, they have been entertaining us with beautiful diving videos during this time. It is definitely a great adventure to dive with them. Wishing them the best for the future!

Alex O´Loughlin ~ An Intense Study 
Great to see them doing stuff together outside of work. They seem to have become great friends. And engaging in a wonderful charity. All of them are good people.
Thank you for the transcript.

So glad we got something new to see of Alex. And something real, not just all the H50 stuff.
I think it is also a bit of advertising for their business. Those kind of businesses, are the ones who suffer a lot with the lockdowns everywhere. Their income basically came to a halt instantly.
And of course with it they can make someone’s wish come true. Win-win for all.

Thank you for this. It is so wonderful to see. I didn’t know that Alex and Beulah were involved as owners but you can see why their bromance on the show rang true. It wasn’t based on a writers forced script but on true feelings. I look forward to seeing them in many joint projects. Alex found his real brother. Blessed.

Beulah confirmed his part as co-owner a while back already, and we were pretty sure that Alex was the other partner.
The 4 of them have been tight since before filming Epi 8:24 already.

It is really good to see Alex again, after and outside of H50. I hope we get many more chances to see signs of him. I was wondering before but now I am pretty sure about the meaning of his trident tattoo …..
Btw, they were looking for followers on their youtube channel too https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvHtO3bA245J2iBKO2v9J3Q

Yes, that picture is in our original wedding post.
One of the few very private pictures we ever posted. (but we had our reasons)
His beard was very well trimmed back then, Not as wild as it got in many of the other years.
But I think you are right, she likes it 😀

Thank you for this! Alex looks younger already! Glad they are still doing positive stuff to help Make A Wish. Don’t like the mustache on Beulah but then I always liked Alex clean shaven as well! Hope everyone stays safe & that we can all resume our “regular” lives soon.

It’s so good to see that face after H50!! He looks great.😍 What is also beautiful are the underwater pics from Trident cuz I am loving that sea turtle swimming along during their underwater jaunts.💕
Alex and Beulah’s relationship has carried over from script to the real thing. That’s nice I like that. It’s a good thing and esp since they are also partners in Trident Adventures. Way to go!!
Thanks FOYeur for this as it definitely was a pleasant uplift for me today. Thank you for being there.😊

They are indeed close friends. I think they clicked right from the beginning. Beulah Koale once said how helpful Alex had been with everything, helping his family feel comfortable at the new place.
And Alex’s words at the screening, Beulah’s haka dance and the heartfelt, not just acted honi in the finale said it all.

That Honi made me feel like we are intruding on a very special, kind of sacred, moment.

Thank you!! I love this!! Alex looks wonderful. I’m glad he can still enjoy himself at this time, in small groups of course, at a safe distance. It’s great that Trident is involved with Make-a-Wish.
Does Alex also have a business partnership with Egan Inouye at Grappling Unlimited? Regardless, he has truly embedded himself in Hawaii. He seems happy, and I’m thrilled for him.
