The perspective is jaw dropping. The size of the wave compared to the surfer is terrifying.

[@LK-om2lp]

The thing that gets me is reportedly there have been tsunamis over the past several hundreds of years ago that based upon how far inland they found debris some of these were over a thousand feet high I can't even fathom that this one looks like it's probably holding hands with 70 80 ft imagine something 10 times that high

[@LK-om2lp]

I can't remember where I read it so I'll make up a name and say National Geographic but supposedly there was an earthquake off of the coast of South America that took off towards Japan by the time it hit Tokyo bay they calculated the wave and almost 3,000 ft High how they do that I don't know or how accurate this is just crazy to try and even fathom that

Hello, do you know 100% sure you’re going to Heaven, if you die today? The Bible says you can know. It’s not about being a good person, being baptised or “repenting of your sins.” There’s only ONE thing you’ve got to do. We’re all condemned to Hell because we’re sinners - “For the wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23). The Bible mentions a “second death” in Revelation: “…and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8)🔥 👉Search *The Bible Way to Heaven*

[@cyleleghorn246]

@martin gonzalez I believe you replied to the wrong person. I already knew how they get up there, but the comment I was replying to mentioned "seriously impressive the fact that he got ahead of that wave" which made it sound like they thought the surfers just paddled up and caught it like they would with any other wave. I'm no surfer, but I watched a documentary on these giant waves one time because the entire concept is fascinating to me. I've never seen waves like this before in person so it surprised me that there are some places that commonly get waves 35+ feet tall, and if you track the waves and weather patterns you can go out on a nice day and see waves like this approaching 100 feet! It doesn't need to be the middle of a hurricane for them to appear in some parts of the world!

What surprises me more than the massive balls of this surfer is the massive massive balls of the hundreds of people standing there watching a 30 meter high wave coming right at them!

That was in the town Nazare in Portugal, the place where the biggest waves occur frequentley. The bottom of the Ocean there, have a narrow huge crack and when the water hits it causes huge waves, it's called "canon".

[@sedberryrj024]

The best thing I've ever seen 🤯🤩

[@blakjack3053]

Oahu's North shore waves are impressively huge between November and February, but this Nazare is at a whole nother level!

[@jasonsfamily4571]

North shore almost killed me this sure would have.

[@skb254]

It’s because of the deep gash in the earth below this place that makes this place what it is; it is like the opposite of the Mariani Trench! The Challenger Deep ~this is the Challenger High. This is a Mount Everest of surf waves. (I see men surf this thing and I wanna cry….there’s actually one woman I believe at least two has surfed it. She said she almost died or something to that effect.) 😮😮😮

[@anthonybrown3198]

That's rad

[@Incognitofrito1]

Holy crap!!!!! I feel like I just witnessed the 8th Wonder of the World. 😮 I'm not a surfer at ALL, so please forgive my roundabout verbiage trying to describe what I saw. 😉 At first, the video looked to me like a massive storm cloud, swirling dark grey/black at the bottom about to drop tornadoes. Then I saw the teensy, tiny strip of a line at the top, where the surfer had come over the top & started to descend. THEN.....GULP!!!!! I saw the top of the gigantic wave.....correction.....THE ENTIRE OCEAN begins to fold over on itself straight down towards the surfer like an apocolyptic avalanche. WOW!!!!! I'm SO glad he pulled this off successfully & wasn't hurt. Otherwise I kept thinking "geez one wrong move & this guy's gonna be on an episode of "1000 Ways to Die." 🤔 But he made it!! Bravo Bravo! 👏 🏆 I read some comments below made by some very experienced surfers, so I would have a better understanding of what this guy pulled off. I mean the ENTIRE F-ING OCEAN just folded over at a super crazy apocolyptic height like a Tsunami. My heart was beating like crazy just watching it! 🤪

[@christopherchristy6328]

well written my friend!!

[@BarnDoor-won5ve]

You're like a poet or some shit

[@YourMajesty143]

Tsunamis don't fold over like this, their power is in the surge and speed with which they pummel a shoreline. A tsunami's height isn't built as a steep wall like the one in this video, rather its height is more due to its increased depth and is spread out across an ocean's expanse.

[@lucienberl]

Best comment "ever". 😁

[@lucienberl]

​@@YourMajesty143 it's the "gravity", literally throwing the water around.

[@Gmexican]

Whole clip is fucking unbelievable. The sheer size of the wave, the surfers knowledge and experience. He rode that wave at the perfect spot. There was such a low margin of error because of how high that wave was. How do you even learn that. Insane.

[@lion---sturm]

The truth is that this is not the wave of Rodrigo Koxa. He is / was the world record holder. But this video is from a german big wave surfer Sebastian Steudtner. Pretty sad for him not to get the world record but then to see his wave under a different name.

[@sherrilllowrey7275]
