In November of 2011 a surfer called Garrett McNamara broke the world record of the highest wave ridden with a total height of 78 feet. But after he surfed the wave people thought that it was 90 feet but later it was confirmed and lowered to 78 feet (but 78 feet is still a lot!). The earlier world record was made by Mark Parsons in 2008 with a total height of 77 feet.
Garrett broke the world record again surfing a whopping 100 foot wave in 2013, smashing his record from 2011 by 22 feet!
