Surfer Rides a Truly Colossal Wave

Posted September 7th 2006

If you have come across this video before, I make no apologies for posting it again here.

It is not until the camera pulls back that you get a feeling of just how big this wave actually is – it is absolutely colossal. Though by no means a surfer myself I cannot help but admire the surfer featured – Brad Gerlach - as he keeps on going, and going, and going….

The wave reputably rose to a height of 67 feet and this clip was filmed from a cliff on Maui.

Thanks to Braban for drawing this video to my attention.

I’ve seen this before, but I’m still impressed each time I see it.
I wonder what the surfer was thinking as he rode the wave?
