Clip #1 Tow-In surfing explained -- with risk of death (SV01401)

Footage is shown of extreme surfers taking on gigantic waves as expert Ken Bradshaw explains: "You'll get the best rides of your life, but guaranteed, you're going to get the worst wipeouts you could ever imagine (surfer 'Skindog' is later shown being 'eaten' by a monster wave). And if you're not ready for it, if you're not trained for it, if you're not mentally prepared for it...you could die. ...If you can't hold your breath for 90 seconds under duress, you have no business being out there."
