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.

When you look at these gigantic waves.. I must say in the beginning God! There is a creator 🎤
Hmmm. I still have my 4'11" fish kneeboard from the '70s. I mean, ……..what could possibly go wrong?😁
I'm two minutes in and I'm having a heart attack 😮
I'm sorry I respect it but with all that technology you can give uss a video with the actual wave hhhhmmmmmm !!!!!!
This is one of the ugliest big waves out there.
Thats a great ride and a gnarly wave but not even close to biggest.
Matadors of the sea.
The wave at, 5:27. comes together as the surfer exiting at the top. The surfer goes through it like it is a tube prism, 5:41– 5:42 I have never seen a wave, or a surfer do that before. Is there a surfing vocabulary word for it?
I was so bummed, I missed it by a month. I saw 35 footers and I thought that was big can't imagine what these 100 footers would look like
Massive walls of water,but they break on themselves a third way up. I don't think this would be a perfect day
I know nothing about surfing but that was awsome. I liked how you showed waves they pulled out of as well . Gave me more of an idea why they were positioning themselves where they were . I didn't realise how much difference it made .
amazing
Those aren't waves – those are cheese graters!
Well I never………………
#BeingSaneInInsanePlaces
O vídeo é óptimo; os palavrões eram dispensáveis!
This is amazing
Sou de Florianópolis, descendente de açorianos, estive morando em Portugal no Algarve e não tinha escutado essa expressão 3:27 Ó-lhó-lhó, achei que fosse típica do arquipélago dos Açores.
How can these guy walk with how big there balls are
President Trump would be proud of these young men!
❤
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.
