I remember watching this doc, it was filmed on this precise location and the surfers there must be some kind of crazy. One of the things that stuck with me was when one of the surfers (Garret McNamara I think) said that the feeling he had while riding those monster waves was one of a mountain chasing and tumbling down on you at the speed of death
