I’m doing something that only a handful of people in the world want to do”
Riding MONSTER waves
Imagine standing on a sidewalk looking up at a 6 story building 84 feet above your head
Now imagine that building turned into a wave of salt water
That came crashing down on you
With energized momentum created while traveling 3,000 miles across open water from North America
In the 1st of 7 film segments in ‘Magnetic – Nuit De la Glisse’
Now Playing on Netflix
We’re on the most Western point of continental Europe
Praia do Norte, Portugal
Being introduced to the biggest wave in the world, as well as Toby Cunningham & Andrey Karr
Two friends that trust each other with their lives
Every time they hit the water
Their focus on one another can’t be compromised for a split second or they’ll die
One is on a surfboard
The other on a jet ski
With the surfer often being dragged on his belly across the Ocean with another Monster literally breaking at his toes
The two work together as a team
Even when their own life is in doubt
As many people I meet live a Groundhog Day type of life
‘Same Old, Same Old’
Repeated day after day
These two guys are living an adventure everyday!
They fall asleep each night feeling a sense of accomplishment
And wake up each morning preparing to stay alive while having fun
‘A Purpose Filled Life’
If I have a bad day at work …
I can get through the struggle … and regroup for tomorrow
If Toby or Andrey have a bad day … There’s No Tomorrow!!!
What makes a person repeatedly risk their life for a thrill?
That can only be answered by that person
That’s what filmmaker Thierry Donard, shows us so well
He lets us into the mind of crazy people … that are probably happier & more satisfied with their life than 99% of humans
Watch the Movie Trailer above
However, be careful … it may pull you in!
