what was the biggest wave ever surfed

I think it was like high 70s like 76ft or 78ft or something on Cortes Bank

 

Young move man.

Kinda recently, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbETb6NKLCU

He got the 100 footer.

 

i was watching this thing on the history channel that said there were some waves hitting crete in the Mediterrean reaching 90 feet way back in the day, pretty nuts

 

Perhaps when Pangea existed there were some 90 footers...

And for those that need reminders, Pangea, is when there was just 1 big continent that was surrounded by ocean, before the continental plates moved and broke apart the land masses.

 

pretty sure that video isn't real, since his name is michael of the bull (red bull video). Big wave though. Annnd the 2007 winner was skindog and garret mcnamara...not "of the bull".

wait was that post a joke? i don't get jokes.

 

85ft surfed by Laird Hamilton. I can't imagine...
