Surfer sets record for riding the biggest wave ever

Brazilian surfer Rodrigo Koxa set a new Guinness World Record for riding the biggest wave ever sufed, an 80-footer in Nazaré, Portugal.

“I try to surf big waves all my life, and I had a huge experience in 2014 where I almost died at Nazaré,” Koxa said. “Four months later, I had bad dreams, I didn’t travel, I got scared, and my wife helped me psychologically. Now, I’m just so happy, and this is the best day of my life."

Now he and Mick are planning to wing on over to London and jam with the Stones.
