Hawaiian Pete Cabrinha rides a 70-foot wave to win the title for the biggest wave ever ridden at Jaws in Hawaii in this undated handout photograph. The waves have been nicknamed Cyclops, Jaws and Dungeons and are the new life-and-death playground for a unique breed of surfers who ride gargantuan ocean waves as big as a seven storey building.

After being mowed down by a wall of water Cater was hit by three massive waves and dragged 200 meters (yards), or more than a football field, underwater. One wave pushed him so deep he was forced to equalize his ears twice. "The impact is full-on. You get rag-dolled, you do cartwheels and ripped around violently. You just have to relax and try and enjoy it,"

I'd rather relax and enjoy some brews and babes on the beach.

I'm having my doubts about the line that says that a wipe out once put him 600+ feet underwater. The world record for free diving is only a bit more than 300' and even that depth has proven fatal to some.

Riding Giants is a great movie to rent, despite the last 1/2 hr. Laird Hamilton lovefest.

I guess I shouldn't complain about the time I got sand in my shorts.

I call BS! I'm sure it SEEMED like it, though.

Saw one of those on Youtube the other day.

It's amazing.
