    I remember seeing on history channel ships sinking due to methane gas in the great lakes. Reducing buoyancy along with freakish winds wreaks many a ship. Good work photographing liquid montanas as Spanish would say it.☺

    maybe out in the middle of the lake they can get 30 ft but if they were that big so close to shore i doubt he would be in the water filming it, when Lake Superior gets huge waves like that you couldn't even be in the water like he is.

    I live in Ohio the waves are never as bad as he says they are. If you go there in mid fall it will be cold and there will be waves, But he is describing the waves to be so powerful is not true, but sometimes you will get good pictures of the waves but the only challenge going out there is the cold. Douche surfer, But Great Big Story keep up the good work.

    I think this guy is making the water seem more dangerous then they actually are. The waves when he was walking were 1-2 feet. If you have ever been in the ocean it is way more dangerous.
