The world's most feared wave is not the tallest. It's called Teahupoo.
This day
at Teahupoo- Aug 27th 2011 during the Billabong Pro waiting period is what many
are calling the biggest and gnarliest Teahupoo ever ridden. Chris Bryan was
fortunate enough to be there working for Billabong on a day that will go down
in the history of big wave surfing. The French Navy labelled this day a double
code red prohibiting and threatening to arrest anyone that entered the water.
Kelly Slater described the day by saying "witnessing this was a draining feeling being terrified for other people's lives all day long, it's life or death. Letting go of that rope one time can change your life and not many people will ever experience that in their lifetime."
