The Best (As in Worst) Surfing Wipeouts of 2016
Спорт
Wipeouts never get old. Performance surfing grows by leaps and bounds every year, but eating shit has essentially remained the same for decades. But we never, ever tire of watching it and hearing the stories behind it. Because, and here's the thing: surfers are generally horrible when it comes to talking about their own surfing. But they are amazing when recounting almost dying. Not sure why, but it's true.
Greatest Wipeouts is a Surfline original series showcasing death-defying surfing wipeouts, near-death experiences and heaviest waves of all time.

The worst thing is when they survive that big wave, and look behind theres another one of the same size.

Adelaide Aviation With waves that big, you can’t dive through. You keep getting rattled until you reach shore. Especially with the board, it’s like dragging another body through a wave. I’ve surfed 25 footers and it’s not fun when you wipeout.

I remember my vision turning red and everything almost went black. I almost drowned but in my head I was saying God please don't have me die. I kept fighting and eventually got out I also hit my knee into a rock and started bleeding. If I hit my head I think I would've died.

MyName Jeff is a smart guy. That's most likely how you would experience death-by-shark. In other words, you'd know what attacked you. You'd flail in the water for a minute or two, bleeding out as the shark circled. You'd notice your missing limb, shredded flesh, perhaps your organs floating out of you. Then you might watch as the shark starts to eat you. Or maybe it'd just grab you and drag you into the deep--where you'd drown. I'll pick the wave.

Tiger, your body would go numb, and you wouldn't feel a thing. Chances are you'd faint if the torso down would be cut off. Even if it was a leg, your body would probably numb the unsevered part. Don't get me wrong, it's still horrible, but I'd rather get eaten. Actually, now that I think about it, I'd rather drown because then at least people could bury me. If no one knows where my body was, I'd rather get eaten, but if they knew, I'd drown.

I love how chill these guys are about their near-death experiences XD
Surfers all have a vibe of awareness; It's built into them from years of oceanic discipline. Can see it in their eyes and if you don't, they probably don't really surf.
Thanks for posting !!! I love it... that's a surfer, definitely. While getting completely worked, he thinks "Oh, this is probably how you die out here...." No panic, just tuck and roll. while you get rag dolled, sneak a breath, same thing when the next wave hits you, until you get a break or die. Respect for the surfers, the photographers (the insanely crazy ones), lifeguards, and Mother Nature. I'm glad they are all ok now and back out and charging.

My worst wipe out was in Morocco i was there to surf 6 to 9 feet max and after a day of surfing 8 feet i was feeling good then a big 10+ feet wave came i did not know it was going to be so big i total messed up dropped out of the wave hit the bottom was held under for over a min leash snapped which was first time for me soon as i got up next wave owned me again under for a long time by the time i was swimming i was so tired from lack of oxygen i could not even move my arms lucky for me a Australian girl was paddling out and found me i was so close to dying it put me off ever trying big waves again. And yes 10+ feet is big to me i'm English i learned on 3 feet waves
Man I couldn't imagine getting hammered by a big wave like these! The biggest I have been on 15', and I thought I was going to die!!! Props to these guys!
I've been in some big (relative) waves ~10'? but the stuff these guys are talking about really puts into perspective how different giant waves are. Amazing compilation!
“I went for a nice long swim” reminded me of the time I fell off a boat and they didn’t notice so I had to swim after it bc the shore was to far away
You don’t really realize the power and control water has on you, until an 11 foot wave tramples you and it takes every ounce of your power to get to the top.
When Twiggy said he didn't touch the bottom but he could feel it's presence I can relate. I had many wipeouts where I could sense the bottom before I touched it and then I finally touched it. It's a weird feeling and I don't know how it's possible
This is so crazy. People have referred to wiping out at places like Jaws as the feeling of getting hit by a semi truck. Not only that, but multiple waves hold downs in 20 ft plus surf takes so much training and skill, mentally and physically. I’ve had ten second waves hold down in 6 foot surf, and it was extremely scary, so massive respect to anyone who dares to face those tsunami waves 🌊 🤙🏽😬
I’ve gotten trampled by giant waves whilst boogie boarding, sending me into multiple rolls under the water and making me lose track of which way is up and which way is down. I can’t imagine how terrifying these waves must feel…

Can't even imagine. I've been pummeled bad where my head hits the sand and I don't know which way is up many times when I was younger and boogie boarding and that was on at most 7-9 foot waves. I couldn't even imagine wiping out on these waves. Scary.
I've been kicked off my board in 7-10 ft waves and getting thrashed under water with no extra breath is pretty scary, I can't imagine what these waves feel like. I've probably never even been held under more than 15-20 seconds and it feels like forever
