DAREDEVILS AGAINST GIANTS: A HISTORIC SURF SESSION AT NAZARÉ
On February 24th, 2024, the quaint seaside town of Nazaré, Portugal, turned into an amphitheater for one of the most thrilling and treacherous displays of big wave surfing the world has ever seen. As a nasty storm unleashed its fury on the coast, it brought with it monstrous waves, challenging even the bravest of souls. Only four intrepid surfers—Sebastian Steudtner, Lucas “Chumbo” Chianca, Kalani Lattanzi, and Gabriel Sampaio—dared to face the ocean’s raw power.
🏄♂️ MEET THE WARRIORS OF THE SEA 🏄♂️
In conditions that were far beyond extreme, with winds howling and waves reaching heights that defy imagination, these warriors rode the unrideable. Their performance was not just about surfing; it was a battle against nature, pushing the limits of what is humanly possible.
🌪️ A STORM LIKE NO OTHER 🌪️
The storm’s impact made even spectating a challenge, with the ferocious wind and spray making it hard for the dedicated crowd that gathered to watch. But the spirit of adventure and the love for the sport transcended nature’s obstacles, uniting everyone present in awe and admiration.
🏆 A RECORD IN THE MAKING? 🏆
Did we witness history? A new world record perhaps? While that remains to be confirmed, one thing is clear: February 24th, 2024, will be etched in the annals of surfing history as a day of monumental bravery and sheer force of will. The performances of Steudtner, Chumbo, Lattanzi, and Sampaio have left us all with our hearts in our hands, marveling at the human spirit’s capacity to confront and ride the fury of nature.
🙏 SAFETY FIRST: A SIGH OF RELIEF 🙏
The overwhelming joy and relief felt as each surfer made it back to shore safely cannot be overstated. The day was a stark reminder of the ocean’s power and the importance of respect, preparation, and camaraderie among those who dare to dance with giants.

you would need a Good set of Balls
I was there but in the afternoon when the waves calmed down a bit, I saw only the guys on the sea scooters but noone of the surfers , dancing with Giants is an EPIC way to describe this! Thanks for sharing
I only understood the " Oh Shit" but I knew exactly what that meant.
These guys have incredibly large brass balls.
Don't understand how the boards hold them all. Lol
IN CROY ABLE
no brain no pain
In the late 90's, early 2000's I crewed on an NHRA Niro Funny Car. It was during that time when I really came to understand addiction. When our owner/driver would get out of the car at the big end his eyes would be lit up like there was a100W bulb in his skull. Adrenaline! The most addictive substance on earth. We are now witnessing from the safety of our home offices that addiction on our screens. When the need to feel that adrenaline rush overrides the fear of death that person should be in rehab. Riding big waves is not about the money, fame or feeling of personal accomplishment. It is addiction to adrenaline.
That just looks nasty. How on earth do people survive wipeouts there in those conditions
These waves are on such another level it makes me look away at times anyone who bodyboards or surfs understand the power of the sea, but this…. it's just so off the chart crazy, it's hard to comprehend the amount of power on display.
Not for the novice 😂😂😂😂
5:42 do you feel lucky
Evil waves man, atrocious conditions. Why you risk your lives for that terrible quality.
That said, full respect given.
Which wave is the world record? Time, please?
IT'S NOT THAT IMPRESSIVE WHEN THE "JET SKIS" DO THE WORK!!! THEY JUST STAND ON THE BOARD!!
Whoa! Aside from these being violent waves, simultaneously cresting in different directions, it looks there are near hurricane force winds.
Amazing surf, but to me not a world record. I think waves should have to fully break or crumble from top to bottom to be considered, most of these didnt and dont even finish breaking. When you look at the actual Guiness wave it to me is significantly larger. Still an absolutely amazing set that I wouldn't dare go ride lol.
It’s absolutely insane. The men and women who ride these monsters are definitely wired differently.
I feel like I am the only one that truly understands how insane this is… like, even more than the surfers riding Nazare… warriors.
Don´t worry guys. in 3 months time from now, Nazaré will be one of the most peaceful and beautiful beaches to visit and get a nice tan 🙂 Nice town to visit too !
5:39 A sair pelo buraco da agulha… Close call, antes de entrarem na agua, devem passar pelo Santuario de Fatima…
