what a misleading title, it's all about "Andrew" and his wish to break his back again, on camera. talked through it by a soothing commentators voice.

Andrew didn't break his back. It was the water.

Huge graveyard for jet skis. Suppose they wash up on the shore occasionally.

This is insanely stupid to go out there and 'challenge' the waves, after you had a mortal warning... The arrogance and inability to LEARN lessons from experience is what makes us as humanity so prone to disaster! If you want to take footage of waves close up... consider DRONES... You don't need to put your life on the line...or end up forever in a wheel chair just because you want to 'prove' something to yourself... Congratulations Andrew... you did not conquer your 'fear'...you conquered your common sense...

is it possible to artificially modify the seabed to create even bigger waves?
@Monk_DuckКүн бұрын
@invariant47 So in theory with massive works you could do it, whether or not you'd want to is another thing. Safety would be a big factor, cost, impact on the environment and locals etc...

Back in 1951, the U.S. government considered nuking the floor of the ocean to make a bigger canyon. It was nixed though by the incoming administration the following year.

Has Brian Cox seen this? Are you trying to tell me that *inertia forces* also have an effect on our waves and tides? Everyone keeps saying it's just gravity pulling stuff and I don't see how that can be true after watching this.
@Mister_H.Күн бұрын
Obviously local conditions also have an effect on the state of the ocean and waves!

Inertia has to do with the movement of mass. When water moves, it has inertia. Wave's can be 'focused' in water as they are in Nazare due to the specific shape of the canyon off of the coast. If the waves come in at the right direction, they can become focused by the shape of the canyon, changing the shape of the wave; in this case causing it have a higher amplitude, ie: a bigger wave. Remember, these waves are moving in a very large column of water, tens to hundreds of meters deep being compressed as they move into shallower water up an underwater canyon vs. a shore wave that may be a few centimeters to a couple of meters crashing on a beach. Tides are one "force" that creates waves. Wind creates waves - Think storm surge. Displacement of water creates waves - Think tsunami's. Tides create waves - Think gravity/moon. Currents in the ocean can cause waves. Interactions between currents can cause freakish large waves - Think Rogue waves.

Click Bait - it’s about surfing! I hope he’s paying privately for all the medical and emergency intervention for his stupidity. And the title of this clip should be Andrew the selfish surfer
