British surf champion breaks back in wipeout by 50 ft wave in Portugal

A British big-wave surfer has broken his back in a brutal wipeout after a 50ft wave came crashing down on him off the coast of Portugal.

Andrew Cotton, 36, from Braunton, Devon came off his board while riding a huge wave in Nazare, Portugal, and was severely injured.

Mr Cotton, who holds the world record for biggest wave ever surfed, was rescued from the water and placed on a spinal board before being taken to a local hospital.
