These are courageous surfers in giant frigid lifethreatening waves. Lets take it to the next level...no jet skis...no leashes...pure paddle in surfing by men of steel with excellent swimming skills to rely on.

My friend Martin's wipe out on Guam , from Typhoon Dale '96' was worse. No pictures, but medical records show; Damage caused by impact on coral reef; both Pelvic bones broken, three ribs broken, one Knee broken, one clasped long. Then the next wave drove his face into the coral reef. The cut on his ass was big enough to put you fist and forearm in. Three weeks in intensive care, 2 months in hospital, 3 months wheel chair. Surfing real waves 9 months after wipe out.

He's such an animal! And Mike: not to take anything away from him, but he is not being modest (or a braggart for that matter. He doesn't say that he was "almost in the tube." He says he was "almost in the tube from the very beginning." Huge difference.

Hahah, "like a dead cockroach"! What's unparalleled is RCJ's storytelling.
