The jet guys are the real heroes here. A proper number of them watching everything that happens ready to jump in. That allowed these things to be able to happen because if they weren't there .... and the cool part is they take turns.
@@marthavigueras9123he leído y tú sabrás mas q yo por portación de apellido, Viera, que son marinos, aguerridos marinos portugueses, que el estrecho de Magallanes quien lo cruzó uds!!!!!! No me extraña, y admiro a los conductores de las motos, surfearan si como no, herederos de todos los portugueses los mejores navegantes del mundo, hasta hoy, para mi, no hay hazaña humana mas valiente que encontrar en la historia.
It’s rare you feel complete awe from watching a video, where you get a true sense of something so viscerally. This stunning photography achieved that. I’ve not seen anything that captures this break in this way, and for the first time I think, I got a sense of who you have to be to drop into a wave like that. You’re out there experimenting and playing with an edge, in direct communion with the awesome power of Mother Nature, and you need to be a unique person to be willing to go that close, in pursuit of something so elegantly beautiful and poetic. It’s almost like a calling, bringing these souls from around the world, and I’m not even sure if bravery is a dominant factor, it’s more like an act of devotion, to the craft, the moment, to the ocean, as if they almost have no choice in the matter. They answer the call, and I think for them, it’s impossible to ignore. It has to go beyond emotion, or logic because no one in their right mind would commit to a situation where you’re in the maw of this phenomenal fundamental force and dancing beneath a mountain of water crashing around you. What an incredible manifestation of the human spirit.
I have the same emotion when I see this, it is a wholeness a blend, no self, timeless the moment, in union with everything, a beauty…life to its full potential Thank you all surfers 🏄🏼♀️ it is a remainder that there will always be more life than we could imagine!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Never thought 30 / 20 years ago anyone would dare surf the Nazare Waves....Don't practice surf, surely because I was petrified looking at these back then when I was young!! Anyway...you guys are awesome/ insane!👍 So are the drone images!! Cheers!!
The wave at Nazare is breathtakingly beautiful and insanely powerful. The high quality drone footage puts you in the front seat to view it. I cannot imagine what it's like for the surfers, but this video gives me the best possible illusion I'm there. Thank you.
The amount of energy in those waves is insane to think about. Gotta be humbling realizing you're on the face of that much power. Real skill involved in surfing here.
This drone footage at Nazare is incredible. Really gives you a sense of just how massive these waves are, without even being there. Can’t get enough of it.
I've been there twice and it is amazing. So powerful and jaw dropping. I do have to admit cameras do make everything look bigger than it actually is because of the angles.
Surfing Nazare has to be one of the pinnacle Nature/human experiences....finding that zen in the midst of the incredible power and majesty of Nature. 💜🌊🌍
Very cool how concentrated some of these waves and crests are. The jets can hang around just off to the side and the surfers can ride around on the wave and often decide when to ride out/leave. Incredible footage for sure. The movie Point Break had some amazing immersive footage inside barrels etc but this a whole nother level of amazing. The part where the surfer leaves the top of the crest and literally stand on top of the wave as it slowly drops is incredible.
The drone footage was amazing, the music was haunting, it expressed the energy and danger those super humans face. So addictive , the footage allowed you to be there without being there. Legends well done everyone stay safe.
What Garret and Cotton did in Nazare is take the tragedy of all the fishermen who have died in these waves and turned it into a source of pride. I am brought to tears every time I watch these brave men and women literally dance on the graves of Nazare’s ancestors. Knowing what Garret has survived trying for that 100 foot wave is beyond inspiring. It’s the greatest surf story of all time.
Also Google Justine DuPont goes RIGHT at Teahupoo. The only video I have ever seen of anyone taking that right. Any big fan of WSL knows Justine is one of the most hard core surfers in the World, regardless of sex.
I think this is the best video I have ever seen. The Myrhical Beast Nazzare that I will never see in person.The brave men that ride its waves. The wave runner people that need to be in total sync. And the drone and camera footage. Beautiful. Thank you.
The secret...have fun and be happy outside there and most definitely DON'T FADE the drop in. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us my friend, Semper Fidelis.
Was in Nazare just few days ago. The sea was pretty calm and the waves barely above 1m height. Super hard to imagine it can become that rough and intense there. A truly magnificent place. I will surely come back when the big guys are coming back. BTW: Video + Music is fantastic. Couldnt get enough of it. You did an epic job, sir.
Great video footage of an incredible break. The surfing looks dangerous, and the jetski action almost looks worse. Either way, crushed is crushed. Be careful lads.
@@misterfunnybones I've heard that before. A jet ski doesn't perform well ingesting foam. That must add a little stress when the next swell is coming in.
I'm seaman. We were crosiing Cape of Good Hope, weather was bad, but beautyfull. During my watch I had chance to observe albatrose birds diving betwen waves. ..... something o see.
that kind of surfing reminds me of North shore where I grew up and it takes a lot of cojones to be able to ride away that big very well done thank you for posting it ❤️
INSANE Nazare session, gentlemen!! The shot at :25 shows how that water is COOKIN. 😳! It's FAST as well as colossal. The shot of the crest of Mr. Chianca's wave at 1:15
...was almost menacing looking. The slomo shot at 2:12 is CRAZY. I hope one day I can hear and feel what that lip crashing at 4:22 is like. I imagine the sensation to be overwhelming... So glad you weren't hurt at 5:34, Mr. Chianca!!!! YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!
