Garrett McNamara broke a world record by surfing a 100-foot wave! This astounding accomplishment occurred in Portugal on January 28, 2013.
But what makes this so remarkable is that he broke his own record in the same location he set the current record off the coast of Nazaré, Portugal in an underwater canyon, about 1,000 ft deep, running from the ocean into a funnel that leads straight to the cliffs.
This video first shows Garrett’s first world record wave from about a year ago, and then it shows his new world record wave of about 100 feet that he just surfed. They are shown adjacent to each other so you can judge for yourself if he broke his own world record.
