    Extraordinary height! Awed by the arrow of space-time that has bought together the particles that produce such an amazing sight!

    Unimaginably....violent. terrifying. horrific. epic. insane. breath taking.............
    I've been a surfer for almost 30 years. That has to be some of the most intimidating water I've ever seen.

    I watched it again. The footage has an almost holy feel to it, that we are treading on hallowed ground courtesy of the Phantom, become privvy to something not really meant for the eyes of mere mortals.......



    watch it full screen, without distractions.
    To err is human. To really foul things up ... you need a computer.

The cat swam to the edge and dragged itself out with no problems, although it kept a fair distance from her for some time after that!).

    As to the video - holy frell! That's some wave. The power of the sea never ceases to amaze me...

    This happened to professional female surfer Keala Kennelly at that location after she had already riden the monster waves.
