Oh GOD that is one amazing wave aye!!
My hearts still racing and I watched it YESTERDAY! how the what do these guys DO that!!
I know it's on a DVD called extreme surfing, some discovery channel doco. Put out 2000.
And he's also on the Billabong Odyssey DVD put out in 2004...this one also has that total legend Mike Parson who won the 3 year tour comp thing...
OHMYGODTHESEGUYSHAVEBALLS!!! ok so you'll watch the footage and you're having a heart attack because the wave looks M A S S S I V E... and then the camera pans out and you realise he's only just emerging from the very top part of the wave near the lip... and ok...
woah!

Is this the wave you are talking about since this is huge! .
I would want to know how long you would be held under on a wave that massive or you would just probably die.

Nope that's mike parsons at jaws. It's a clip taken from the billabong things film. I can't spell odyessea, help please from those who can spell.
Ken bradshaws wave can be found on a dvd called biggest wedsnday, condition black.

Couldn't find one after a quick search but then again i've got the video at home! It's a bit tricky to work out which wave it actually is as there all soooo big and it's not actually pointed out you jusy have to guess.
The best bit though is when tony ray and ross clark jones tow in abit too deep and the jet ski ends up having to outrun the wave but doesn't have enough speed to outrun it!!!! They both get mowed down!!!!

You dont die I saw an interview on it but you have to hold your breath for a hella long time 3 mins is what I remember imagine getting smashed by 3 waves in a row holding your breath in 3 min intervals would kill me but they are in amazing shape.

Hey Dec, if you make it to Bali, you can get loads of surf DVD's for a dollar each..........that'll pay for the flight alone

That would be cool.
Here in Phuket there's only tourist dvds...copy stuff for like 30baht (under 50p), it's all like showcase movie stuff.
