Biggest Wave Ever Surfed

Easter Saturday around Sydney’s “Secret Spot” proved to be quite the dramatic place to spend your holiday weekend. Filmer Dave Fox, accompanied by Tyge Landa on the ski, put you front-row in what was a session for the books. Here, Scott “Whip” Dennis tows into an apartment-sized block of liquid from that morning – by far the heaviest wave of the session, but maybe not the scariest moment. That award belonged to Craig Anderson, who almost drowned getting caught inside by an 8-footer. Witnesses say Ando received the beating of a lifetime, some claiming it was a good 30-second hold-down. As Fox put it, “That was easily the worst hold-down I’ve seen firsthand.” And that says a lot coming from a man who’s dedicated his life to filming surfers and boogs hucking themselves into some of Australia’s deadliest slabs. As for Scott Dennis here, we assume he came away unscathed. The DM is still pending in his inbox.

WYLIE BAY, AUSTRALIA — A 17-year-old surfer was killed by a shark off the coast of Western Australia on Monday.

The attack took place at a popular surfing spot called Kelp Beds in Wylie Bay. This coastline is reportedly known for great white shark sightings.

The girl was surfing with her father on Monday afternoon while her mother and two sisters were watching from the shore when she was attacked, 7 News reported.

The girl’s leg was badly mauled by the shark and she was rushed to Esperance hospital, where she later died from her injuries.

Shark attacks are not uncommon in Australia. Last June, Doreen Collyer, 60, died after being attacked by a shark while diving one kilometre off the Perth coast.
