- Miguel Del Toro, the greatest big wave surfer on the planet, rides 100 foot
wave. One of the most respected big wave surfers that you never hear about. Way bigger than anything in the Billabong XXL.
@azertu2u2 to calculate the height of a wave you usually measure the face from top to bottom. Some people measure waves from the back which in turn gives you a smaller measurment because the face is bigger than the back of the wave.
Miguel Del Toro lives in every surfers heart.
Laird did it at Egypt in december 2007, when brett lickle was gashed. everyone else was at Mavericks and Ghost tree. they were the 1st 100 foot waves ridden...no fanfare, no cameramen, just the best big wave riders in their back yard
Miguel Del Toro - The most interesting man in the waves.
I agree with most of you, it what ever you make it to be, it Impressive non the less, you cant take that way form any one. they were there, they made the move and they had to live with it... good or bad (in this case good is a definite understatement)
wikipedia says...
Miguel Alfonso Del Toro was born on June 22, 1972 in Mexico. Del Toro pitched for the Giants during the 1999 and 2000 seasons
70ft i say. u ever stood next to a 100ft boat before? its is amazingly huge :O
The music is called "The Lonely Bull" (El Solo Toro) by Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass.
@jcsjohnson is it really a promo...?/ How do you know I want to find out something about it for years now , is it really a promo..???!!! shure looks real man...
@franklakktweddle Yeah, I wanna know that too. The rest of the clip might be fake, but the dude riding that massive wave wasn't fake
@NickJEvans Is your dad the late actor "Mike Evans"?
The song is "Lonely Bull" by Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass.
I originally thought this was all a ridiculous joke, being played by the world's elite surfers, then I met Miguel del Toro. He was so beautiful that a rich woman's jewelry would easily get lost in his smile. We sat on the course at Pebble Beach and watched him surf a 60 foot face (fakey)! Miguel is el hombre mas interasante del mundo.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Classic!!!!! Where's Captain Goodvibes?? He'd roll up Del Toro and smoke him like a scoob. The Flying Pig has surfed 200' waves on Venus, he'd take his 5'8" twinny out in this and do airs all day.....
holy shit!! where was the shraks???
Who is Miguel Del Toro? My Hero!!
Don't know about the wave, But Kelly's comment is taken from a different movie. Not sure which but i own the DVD
They've shrunken the surfer and slowed the wave down to make it look bigger as it breaks. If you look at 1.42 you can see that the breaking wave gets obscured by the blue of the wave around the surfer that wasn't cut out of the shrinked image.
I agree, if Ross Clarke Jones says it's a 100ft, it's a hundred foot. But mate he got towed into that, you don't see the jet ski cause it's long gone behind that set.
Can someone tell me how they calculate the height? I am real sure this wave was no more than 20 meters which is 20+ x little man in this vid.
and how's the trail of the board on the wave when he bottom-turns , every detail looks like a real ride ,someone must of worked pretty damn hard to fake it so well !!!
that wave is insaaaaaaane!!!!!!!
who is this guy?
Just to clarify from older top comments on this video this is fake haha. "Del toro" translates to "bull" (get it? since this video is a RED BULL vid?) Someone else had told us the Kelly Slater bit was from a completely different video on a different subject and surfer altogether so that bit was edited in for good fun. C'mon, you think Ross Clarke would actually say "that's the first 100 foot wave... ridden by a Mexican." Yeah jay-kay. And really....look up this "Miguel Del Toro"...Doesn't exist.
@mikedk1978 You caught the same wave three times?
Who is The Drizzle? Who is he?
That wave is MAvericks or Jaws they respond please!
How do they measure the wave? where it breaks or something?
Garrett Mcnamara supposedly just rode a wave called 90' plus... This wave looks way bigger.
who cares its a big wave and it is hillarious compilation this was great
Hey whats the name of the song???
sounds like a bull figthing theme.
It's Keyser Söze😬
miguel del toro = the stig = the ghostrider
Del Toro!!!! He isnt human!!! He is a Dolphin!!!!
I say 60 ft.
btw, nice music, what is it?
isnt that footage ghost tree?
Well I know Miguel... Miguelito we call him good friend of mine ! This one was small very calm guy never get scare!
the horn part of this song was sampled by delinquent habits for the song "tres delinquentes" haha.. ballsy guy...
any body knows the name of the song?
hey just letting you know Garrets ride was measured at 78'
vincent guido And this one wasn't measured at all, which is why it's not in any official records book. 100ft just sounds nice.
@hostrauer well who rode the wave then?
Tom Carrol's comment is from the Sixth Element DVD that's the Ross Clarke Jones Story. ( sorry gordylovesu, didn't want to upset you talking about farkwits) But why add all the BS interview edits if it is real? if it was real i am pretty sure Miguel would have rocked up for a comment as well
I am Miguel!!
and here look down
the volume you see inside my
pants is el Toro LOL!!!
@blacklakesurfer I read it in some surfing mag.. I don't think a wave over 50 feet has been surfed.. looks good though.. Best vid is the laird hamilton big wave..
Also, Jamie said "no one was even paddling out..." If the swell was that big, no one actually COULD paddle out.
Who is Miguel del Toro ?
HA HA HA HA HA. Funniest thing I've heard all Day X)
It's only fake if you think it's fake.
I bet you wouldn't say that to
Miguel's face?
He's a mucho grande burrito, hermano!
That was Harry Baines on the ski @ 1:15.
Funny! Kinda had me for a second! Ha ha! Surfed some knee highs today. F*** I gotta move.
That is huge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is this the Dos Equis guy? If he hits you in the face you have to fight off the urge to thank him!
Who is Miguel Del Toro? One Bad-Ass with balls!
Miguel del Toro was seen today in Roswell trying to launch the RedBull capsule .........
If it's real, he has my ultimate respect!
@EarlMcCrackin is it really ...? have you read anything about it , really ..?
Laird is the bomb but that was pretty f'ing HECTIC!!!
@Galack I beleve it is real , Patagonia shure receives some of the most powerfull waves on the planet , wind , waves and current circulate the entire southern hemisphere , it's the greates fetch .. i mean it's the only place that the waves totaly roam uninterrupted around the globe in their cold harsh realm..don't you agree !! :)
they measured it based off of how high the damage went on the mountain face
fucking funny man, I love seeing sens of humor like this!
yeah it BS! The Slater and Carroll bits are taken from the RCJ Doco The Sixth Element... pretty funny thou!
@gabrielmangino no problem
i am 999% sure that is mavericks the wave you were showing, not patagonia
@gabrielmangino u can surf in Alaska
@aofoyayo
I doubt if he paddled into it - the bigger the wave is, the faster it moves
Miguel Del Toro? Yeah, I know 'im. Showed up at my break on the weekend. Caught a smokin' down the line 8ft tube on a single finner while chatting up a babe on the beach.
Miguel Del Toro has huge cojones
LAIRD HAMILTON HAD SURF A 120FT IN A SECRET SPOT WHO NOW JUST HIM AND HIS FRIENDS.....AND HE SAID, THATS ITS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE NOW....THEY NEED NEW EQUIPAMENT.....
I am Miguel Del Toro
ross mentioned him by name. Fuck Ive never heard of this guy. Its almost like a spinal tap sort of video. Im on the fence until I hear bradshaw or hamilton talk about him. The wave shown was a monster. Certainly bigger than the log cabins footage feller mentioned.
Its Herb Alpert: Lonely Bull
half of this is cut from 'the sixth element'
Why argue?............Assume he's 6 foot.
Stop frame at the highest point of the peak and measure how many "hims" fit, trough to crest.
100' ?
That's fricken epic
I'm Miguel Del Toro!! jj
miguel has a striking resemblace to tyler fox at ghosttree haha funning bit
@shallehalle definately looks like it.
pfft... that wasnt miguel del toro.... that was the most interesting man in the world. and he doesnt always drink beer. but when he does he drinks dos equis.. stay thirsty my friends.....
Geeeezzzzz.
Ahhh Senor Miguel. Como esta Senor.
Sus huevos es Mas Grande. Es Fantastico.
Much Grande Olas en Patagonia.
Now, for some of you lesser beings.
If you don't really want it, don't go out.
All you'll do is get in the way and someone will get hurt. Probably you and a few others because you got in the way.
John McCain said he was a ?
And, my dog has ?
Can't make it more simpler than that.
I't fake... MIGUEL DEL TORO is just CODE!!!
well who the fuck is the guy riding it.?? Its a great ride!! Whoever it is gota take some credit for it rite?
this is real or fake?
if that was me i wouldve just sprayed my shit EVERYWHERE!
he looks like an ant on that thing. holy jesus
How do you know it was a 100' wave? That's the problem. When Garret rode the 90' wave it looked massive more so than in this video. There are experts out there who can measure this wave from the video alone and I don't see any..do you? Experts? None coming forth. Oh well. And this was in 2007?
Des ezz no fake, I am Miquel Del Toro. I eat de 100 feet wave for da breakfast and den go look for de beeeg onzzzz
i know, that wave's like 30-40 ft... its still friggin huge but not near 100ft
you would know.... professional big wave surfer are you?
You need to listen again. Jamie Sterling said, "...really big day and no one was even paddling out." So....It was too big. Insanely big...no show surfers = not a lot of footage, helicopters, media, etc. This is pure luck anyone got even this recorded glimpse of this obviously 100 footer.
Seems like EVERYONE says they ride the biggest wave..
This is funny did Quiksilver do this...good job I got to say. Sterling was the best hahah. I just want to be he's tow partner.
@Nickwettfish thinking the same thing !
It's Just a viral marketing campaign from Red Bull. A good one though.
Miguel Del Toroshit !
Looks cool, but this is just a promo. I wish it were real.
Oh for sure!
That's Mavericks.
It´s real............don´t know abou the height, but it´s real......
been in 2x over, i'm well aware that tow partners are usually just as good or better that the ones they're towin in , but the way jamie said made it sound like he would consider it an honor to be second best .... another hint that this movie is a fake because pros usually wanna be the best
huge wave but i say its 50ft?
It´s Herb Alpert: The Lonely Bull, I guess
