@@amaturearcadia UPDATE! Quadriplegic Surfer SELLING SURFBOARDS (MAJOR DINGS) He is way out of place and does not know what he's doing. A+ for courage.
Yeah that's mad. It's obvious from how he bottled it when he made it to the edge that first time and how awkward he was once he got on his board, that he's not a competent surfer. In what world was that a good idea to do try that - surely somewhere in his thought process after that first attempt he was thinking Rocks + Big surf = Potential serious injury or death.
I love his determination though, he was going to keep at it until there was no board left. I'm confident that he learned to surf fast as eager as he was
@@BillSikes.like everything is wrong ! Lol 🤦😅 the position of the arms, the legs, his entire body basically ! Just look at his legs that's the worst, his legs were straight open ! Try paddling like that and see what happens !
Yeah, it was funny until he got in the water. Then you could see he's in big trouble. He had no business been out there. His friends SUCK! I hope he's okay.
@@long2d Yeah his friends had already rocked off before him, leaving him to figure it out alone. I was high up on the cliff doing my own surf check when this happened.
@@Stillstoked Im sure that Im wrong, but it would appear that you'd rather film his embarrassment, to warn the rest of the world, rather than help him.
@@tormarquis yeah, not really. For me to get down the cliffs to the part of the beach where I would have access to him it is a 5 minute drive + search for parking (not gonna happen), 10 minute walk down to the beach + 10 minute walk to the south corner, then a scramble across the rocks... not really a timely warning. Also shouting from a cliff top with huge crashing waves around you doesnt really work either.
I heard he gets his extra hot with a side of ice cubes. They found a roo dead on the side of the road to use to skin graft what was left of his his feet. There's a new sheriff in town, goes by the name Rick Kane.
Heard he next went to Nazare, he said after a few mishaps lol, the northern beaches slab was basic beginner stuff, 50 foot Nazare was a suitable spot for a second surf.. 🤣😂
At least these sort of things usually only happen once… for the simple reason that you not likely to survive the second time if you didn’t learn the lesson
I love this guy. Won't quit, way in over his head, and that's how you learn. But hey, everybody's an idiot sometimes. If you're a serious surfer you know you were there once there trying to give it a go at a certain spot and a certain swell when you no business there. Taking a few lumps are the best life lessons.
Agree that was hard to watch. Went from laughing to being really concerned as soon as I saw him hit the water. Lacked basic paddling skills. Friends or no friends involved, respect the ocean and know your limits!
relentlessness sometimes leads to unconsciousness that leads to death....I can't figure out how this guy could not understand how tricky and dangerous the situation was...When elements warn you twice, thank them not to have killed you at first step....
I sooo wanted to give this guy props for even being out there and attempting it. But....when he started turtle paddling (off-balance) as another set was approaching, had to look away. Hope he's ok. WOW!!!! -lucky to be alive or not seriously maimed. Watching from So Cal. Aussie chargers GOING OFF all over this last swell!!!!! Incredible clips coming out right now. Thanks for the inspiration from Oz.
I find it more impressive that he still has fins on that board. Whoever makes that board and those fins needs to sponsor this guy. Rockoff Boards! Built Kook Tuff!
This guy is a liability not only to himself but to others around him, other people who may even have to put their own lives in harms way to go and rescue him.... know your depth of experience or stay out of the ocean.
Total lack of cognition of where he is and what he's doing. There's a larger lesson here: some people lack imagination and causation awareness, and need to suffer in order to learn.
His casual walking back out for the macking waves, he timed each set perfectly! I heard that his name was Reef or Rock or something. It's just hard to remember with all of the concussions.
I’ve fucked up a few jumps in my life but after the third trouncing I usually take it as a sign. The worst experience was getting the leash caught on something and dangling upside down getting pounded, saving grace it was dawn and no one saw it.
@@user-pe2yx9kt4e Sure why not? What’s the worse that can happen, die I guess but that’s going to happen regardless. A large portion of the developed and so call civilised world will die alone lying in their own shit in some god awful age care facility so I’m thinking being devoured by a shark would be preferable.
I'm compelled to ask 2 questions: first, why would you want to paddle out into that slop show in the first place (even as an experienced surfer); second, how pissed is the guy who loaned him the board and suit?
Dude shouldn't have been out there, he's a danger to himself and others who might have to attempt rescue. Clearly out of his depth and skill level. Couldn't even paddle when he got off the ledge. Gotta know your limits.
This is excruciating to watch. Someone needs to take that poor lad aside and teach him about physics and common sense. And then show him how to rock off.
Just last week i witnessed a young surfer doing a similar thing. This guy here was TOTALLY out of his depth. His paddling showed an inexperienced surfer. Has youtube given people an inflated view of their capabilities ? People laughing at him in the video was slightly disturbing. What if he'd suffered serious injury or even worse? How would your laughter be explained? I spent decades jumping off rocks , mostly successfully .
it was funny, until we watched him paddle. no one was laughing anymore , not even on video bcuz only then did anyone realize he really never surfed before.
WTH???? How many times? HAAHAAHAA!!!! So cleaned he squeaks - in pain from all the rock cuts. Nothing worse than that helpless feeling of scudding backwards over reef with no way of stopping other than slamming your flesh into the rock shelf.
Legend has it....he's still out there waiting for the right moment.
🤣

I bet it improved his golf swing!

Yeah, he looks like a beginner and the surf was way too big for him. Crazy stuff!!
Doesn't matter about anything just full send full charge
he didn't have basic situational awareness of fluid dynamics, gravity, physics, timing, common sense, and courage.
We have to admit that the dude is very persistent.
kook gonna get himself hurt
Shouldn’t be out there
Keeping doing the same thing with the same results? Persistent? He is an idiot!
He looks like the kind of guy who would shout at the sea what is your bloody problem

Yeah he was one determined ning nong
"until no board left"🤣😂💯
That or he died in the process.
i doubt he went again after that session
Or, drowned
Those waves that kept him from leaving that rock made him live to see another day.
It gets really scary when you see him "paddling" .
Why? What was wrong with his paddling?
@@BillSikes. lol he obviously has very very little experience in it, it looks horrible.

I thought the same, at first I was thinking lazy, slow or just dumb but once you see him paddle he's a total kook, it went from funny to serious

Back for more bongs more like it. Too stoned for his own good.
No wonder we hear of drowning deaths at rock ledges.
He's been watching to many Mason Ho videos for sure. Hope he made it out alive.
Poor Mason.
I'm sorry, no A for effort. He gets a D for not knowing when to quit. I have no words to describe his "friends".
gets an F for Farkin Stoooopid
Those r not his friends
He was told that it would be easy.
You can't just call time-out and paddle back in if you don't like the way things are going.
Nice Point Break reference. Little Gromet said that. 🤙
And the whole things fucking roaring right!?
Pushing you forward like a hood ornament on a freight train!
Darwin award contender
The board must be a mess....
His hands and feet must be a mess. Cut to ribbons surely
@George Strait i dont think its sharp rock
OMG I didn't want it to end! Hope he's ok and surfing a nice, sandy, calm beach break somewhere lol

What ya can't see is the 60 plus other surfers out the back. Crowds give kooks confidence.
"crowds give kooks confidence". 💯
That particular day/ spot
looks difficult even for the experienced.
It look closed out. Why bother. Bad waves dont make you a better surfer. Only good waves do. If you want stamina, get a paddleboard and do miles.
Yep, the dudes a complete ding dong mate. Hahaha haha. Love the commentary Sheila. Spot on .☆

Theres a difference between throwing yourself in the deep end and jumping off a bridge into shallow water....
You arnt wrong. I done it once and snapped a board, I know my limits but gotta go for a bit more every now and then
Crickey he took it literally when someone said to him, "the best way to improve your surfing is to go out in all conditions". FarCanal
His ding repair guy has just one customer, but has a full-time job.
Recession proof!
He can't even paddle.
That was hard to watch... Kook award winner hands down..
They say that persistence is one of his finer qualities.
this is the greatest surfing video on UA-cam, without equal.
Absolutely my brother
You got to give him props for never giving up! ... even though he should have.

Yeah so much amazing surfing going down this last week on the East Coast. Was such an amazing swell :-)
I find it more impressive that he still has fins on that board. Whoever makes that board and those fins needs to sponsor this guy. Rockoff Boards! Built Kook Tuff!
Had to rewatch for the background laughter, quality!
This surfer needed someone to say to him how dangereous it was what he was doing,he didnt need a bunch of people recording and joking around
He's a grown man! Should we hold his hand to cross the road too. He should use his brain and realise he shouldn't have even grabbed his board.
Nah that dude should've known his limit
Fred the hero haha
Love the concern for a fellow human... I hope this bloke is okay.
One of the few instances where persistence is NOT a virtue 😅 💯 Oh... and self-awareness.. Dude paddlin' in full startfish mode...
His persistence is truly remarkable. Although hes not supposed to be in there. Never underestimates the ocean.
This guy is a liability not only to himself but to others around him, other people who may even have to put their own lives in harms way to go and rescue him.... know your depth of experience or stay out of the ocean.
nah he's just a liability to himself
Or keep going after it and entertain ALL OF UA-cam!
He really wanted to win that Darwin award 😂
We used to call it a "Rock Launch" back in the day on the beaches , great Vid !
My favourite spot in the 70’s before legropes only a few of surfed it for years great for getting out and in through the rockpool
Mate know your limitations. Way out of your depth.
Total lack of cognition of where he is and what he's doing. There's a larger lesson here: some people lack imagination and causation awareness, and need to suffer in order to learn.
You’ve got to give this guy credit, he didn’t give up!
His casual walking back out for the macking waves, he timed each set perfectly! I heard that his name was Reef or Rock or something. It's just hard to remember with all of the concussions.
Lack of fear should never exist in the ocean. It’s what helps take quick decisions to help you survive. That’s what makes surfing so great
I prefer outmost respect for the ocean but your point's still legit.
I fear that guy, if he were in the lineup.
I’ve fucked up a few jumps in my life but after the third trouncing I usually take it as a sign. The worst experience was getting the leash caught on something and dangling upside down getting pounded, saving grace it was dawn and no one saw it.

Trouncing is my new favorite word.
That was so hard to watch. Great commentary.
He will never forget that day... Even if it wasn't recorded.
Some say he's still paddling this very day
was that paddling? didn't really look like paddling to me... i just saw arms flailing.
He has never been shown when to attack. He didn't realise that speed when the set has finished is the time to go.
Kook of the year award goes to this bloke.
Honestly props for not giving up though
We've all been there sometime, mostly when beginners. Frustrated and angry and incapable to admit that the ocean's well beyond our abilities.
definitely never been wiped out 6 times in a row jumping off rocks
That was a hard watch, had a giggle until I saw him get in the water. Sad thing is there's plenty more like him. His mates should have known better!
Seem like a guy without mates, only arch enemies!
I love the message at the end..
"Johnny where am i gonna go, huh?" "Cliffs on both sides, im not gonna paddle to New Zealand!"
Might want to consider a beach break!
Wow. That was hard to watch.
Between the visual fuck ups and the hilarious commentary I pissed myself laughing with this one🤣😂😄👍
What a good surfer, he goes for it and commits it!
I'm compelled to ask 2 questions: first, why would you want to paddle out into that slop show in the first place (even as an experienced surfer); second, how pissed is the guy who loaned him the board and suit?

Thank god he had 5 cones under his belt and he couldn’t feel a thing.
Apparently he’s been doing this as a punishment from the god’s.

Seriously?? Someone save him from himself. Defs going to end up viral or on the big screen. He's got the best mates in the world (not).
Did you just automatically assume the people recording were his friends 😂😂
He shouldn't be there .. Period!
Me watching such waves from 100 m distance and hiding phone in jacket to avoid damages.... hats off for surfer
I have to remember every time I surfing and get some hurt from the rocks how this guy handle with that and it will give me hope
Rather help the idiot, oppose to just stand there and laugh at him. Help a struggling oke, we all learn
