WIPEOUTS and HEAVY MOMENTS in BIG WAVE CHALLENGE at NAZARE.

This is a compilation of Wipeouts, Fails and Heavy moments in Nazare the day of the Tudor Nazare Big Wave Challenge! It was a day full of action!
More than 5 Jetskys ended in the sand this days and many rescues had to be done by the safety team that did an Amazing job. Leadered by the living legend: Alemao de Maresias in charge of the logistics.
Thanks to his team everybody returned to their home alive and safe. But we can not say that nobody took some scary moments!
This guys from the safety team did a great job, but it was a busy day at the office in Praia do Norte, Nazare. One more day for the books!

2:23 Going over the falls at Nazare' cannot be a good thing. Amazing how fast the safety crews are able to pick up the surfers. Those guys deserve a lot of credit. I don't know how much they are paid ( or IF they're paid ) but they definitely earn their keep.

I saw that happen. Crazy how people went out trying to recover the ski. That thing has to weight 500lbs and with the wave could have easily been pushed on them. Great day of surfing though. The Brazilians were amazing!

[@barenafilmsport]

Its incredible how tense those moments are no?? Men if that machine hits your even your leg you are done!! Brazilians and rescue team.. another level!

[@anb2456]

those jet-ski riders are amazing. are they usually local Portuguese? the jet-ski seems like the perfect machine for those conditions

[@barenafilmsport]

there are lot of jetski models, some are good for some things and some for other! And the drivers are from all over the world! Lots of brazilians, some germans, italians and yes, portuguese too!

@@barenafilmsport thank you man. how incredible that these guys have conquered some of the toughest coastal conditions anywhere in the world. may I ask: are the jet-skis usually Japanese? Yamaha?

[@barenafilmsport]

@@anb2456yes lots of Yamahas but also Seadoo

[@chrisnizer5702]

Damn, that fu**ing shorebreak is brutal. So close to dry land (and long casual lung full breaths of oxygen) but it's STILL gonna kick you in the balls and make you pay full price.

What happened to the last person? Was that a wave runner rescuer who got hurt or surfer everyone was helping? God bless those people who risk their lives to help the surfers. I could never do either especially at nazare.

I would rather die rescue surfers than die laying in a hospital bed
