US Surfer Breaks Guiness World Record For Largest Wave

Garrett McNamara has taken the Guinness World Record for the largest wave ever surfed after riding a 78-foot tall break off the coast of Portugal in November. A panel of independent experts took six months to confirm the official height of the wave, which beat the previous record by only a foot (approx. 30cm.) The record was confirmed at the annual Billabong XXL Global Big Wave Awards last week.

Who Are We?

Error: Operator is a blog. Like so many others these days, we post stuff that we like.

We don't pretend to create everything on this site - far from it. In fact, we wish we created everything on this site, but we aren't that clever, and don't have that much time. We don't intend to copyright anyone's work - if we post something on this site, we enjoyed it, and we hope you might too. We'll always try to post credit to the original source, but this is the internet. Seriously, who came up with this? Anyone?

If the handful of views we are pulling is rubbing you and your blog the wrong way, that's fine. Get in contact with us and we will gladly give you the three cents you might have earned with Google Ads if you had those views instead. Or we'll take the post down - whichever you like.

Sometimes, we will post a lot. Other times, not so much. Life is like that. Sometimes, we post well-thought out, detailed posts we would be proud to show our mothers. Other times, we find a video of a dog pooping on a baby and cannot stop laughing until we show someone.

If you don't like what we do, then you're in control - go check out someone else's page. If you think you can do better (you probably can), then nothing's stopping you. And, on the off chance you like something you see, we love hearing about that too.
