Spotting a sight like this from a fishing boat when you're over 20 miles out at sea would be incredibly unsettling. This photograph sparked theory after theory of what it could have actually been. Some experts thought it may have been a tsunami during a red tide, which would've caused a wave to ...

We've seen some incredible underwater photography before, but what Ben Thouard is doing in “Surface" is something truly incredible. After moving to the small village of Teahupoo, Tahiti, Thouard spent the next 15 years perfecting his art of shooting underwater from inside the wave while looking ...

Riding big waves may seem like something that only surfers do, but these canoers show they're able to hang with the best of them when they catch a big wave and take it for a ride.

Spectators may have seen this wave coming, but who knew it'd be this powerful? A group of people can be seen as they watch a wave off in the distance at Meranti Bay, Indonesia. It looks like a small enough wave at first, but it doesn't slow down even once it breaks. The wave just keeps ...

Ice fishing is a major time investment to get setup and ready to fish. Anglers have to make it out to their spot with all their gear and drill a hole in the ice, so the last thing anyone wants to do is be forced back to land sooner than they planned. Because of that, they don't let very many ...

Nothing will stop these bottlenose dolphins from having a great time and an even better dinner; not even if it's on land. This incredible trio shows a technique they've adopted that allows them to attack their prey in perfect unity. The technique involves them creating a wave through their combined ...

Life can be rough (pun not intended), especially when something is holding you back from fully enjoying what you're in the middle of. In this case, the ocean is doing everything it can to prevent the playful golden retriever named Angus from fully enjoying the hole it dug right at the shore line. ...

The World Meteorological Organization revealed that a buoy in the North Atlantic Ocean had the ride of its life back on February 4, 2013. Located between Iceland and the U.K., the automated buoy recorded the highest wave ever recorded by a buoy at 62.3 (19 meters) feet high. This massive ...

Besides belonging in the water and having the ability to float, boats and surfboards are completely different. You know that, we know that, but apparently this guy had no idea. He's for some reason thinks it's a good idea to ride the pipeline of a wave in his boat (Hint: It's not) with others on ...

I'm not exactly sure why there were so many boats in an area being hammered by wave after massive wave in Teahupoo, Tahiti. What I am sure of is that the green boat comes within what must be mere inches from flipping after it gets struck. It's probably a good idea to bring some lifejackets next ...

This just goes to show you how wild nature can be. One second you're looking at a massive wall of gorgeous ice, the next you're running for your life from a giant wave that threatens to swallow you whole. Video description from Barbecueengineer: A tourist from Australia came to my uncle and asked ...

Garrett McNamara broke a world record by surfing a 100-foot wave! This astounding accomplishment occurred in Portugal on January 28, 2013. But what makes this so remarkable is that he broke his own record in the same location he set the current record off the coast of Nazaré, Portugal in an ...

The video was captured by a man on the beach and shows him running from a sneaker wave, or an unanticipated coastal wave, that flooded the area where people were standing. Sneaker waves are waves that run abnormally far up the beach after a long period of smaller waves, and can seemingly come from ...

Kelly Slater and his team have spent a decade creating an artificial wave that allows you to surf just like you're on the open ocean. The results are amazing. There aren't a lot of details (yet), but the video certainly makes the case for "the best man-made wave ever." https://vimeo.com/149396475
