I wonder what possesses someone to surf something that big?? The devil maybe?
Absolutely nuts!
Even those jetskiers are insane. They must be shitting themselves.
Maya Gabeira almost lost her life surfing this swell.
“Maya Gabeira survived a serious accident while trying to achieve the World record, for biggest wave ever surfed. She was unconscious when she was finally rescued. Her team mate, Carlos Burle rescued her from the sea and performed CPR.
Maya soon recovered her consciousness and was taken to a hospital. She is fine now.”
