Slowbee Posted January 14, 2012 Share This is freakin awesome http://video.mpora.com/watch/5Pgs2slxu/ i think Tumbleweed posted a pic a while ago, with something similar. That wall of water is amazing. You can even see the wave within the wave at one point. Its just incredible that anyone would survive a fall in that.

Capricorn Posted January 14, 2012 Share slowbee: it's not another wave, it's just that teh wave is that thick, it forms mutiple crests. It's not consider the most massive wave ever surfed for nothing. also of interest, is just how different those guys rode that wall as opposed to laird Hamilton. He dipped his hand on the other side of the wave to stop himself from being pulled up the wall. Either way, madness!

The one I posted was Laird Hamilton's epic wave that featured in Stacey Peralta's Riding Giants. It even got the respect of big wave pioneer Greg Noll. I guess it depends on your definition of massive, but I don't know if Teahupo'o can be considered the most massive. It's what, about 20- top 30-foot. It's a freakish wave because of the power, but in terms of height, it's dwarved by waves like Peahi, Todos Santos and Cortez Banks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever the case - the though of being caught in that wave is frightening to say the least. If i consider how i feel getting caught in a big south coast dumper, then i would surely die in that wave! Being able to see these guys doing this up close and in slow motion is pretty awesome - balls i tell you, balls! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being able to see these guys doing this up close and in slow motion is pretty awesome - balls i tell you, balls! Huge balls! Waves like Teahupo'o are all the more scary because the reefs they break over are shallow compared to the deep water reefs like Peahi and Cortez.

Christopher Brunsdon Posted January 16, 2012 Share Man vs. Tank - Tiananmen Square, 1989http://images2.makefive.com/images/experiences/hobbies/top-5-most-amazing-photos-ever-taken/man-vs-tank---tiananmen-square-1989-7.jpg That for me is one of the greatest images of all time. Read that the guy in the pic came back from shopping and it was a spur of the moment action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
