The guy who tried to pick her up the first time was a complete tool who had no idea of how to do a rescue pick up. If he knew what he was doing he could've scooped her up no worries, instead he drowns her???.

Wasn't as impressive as I expected... Waves looked pretty fat.
Don't get me wrong still some brave souls and I wouldn't be anywhere near those waves but for sheer balls to the wall bravery I don't think it even comes close to these examples.... As any surfer knows a 4ft wave pitching and throwing out has waaaay more punch than a fat 12 ft wave.
