People can never tell when one of the best times of your life can become the worst time or end of your life. My sister became a quadriplegic at eighteen years old from having fun with a friend riding horses. Something she loved to do. Scary how fast things can turn on you. Be safe doing the things you love even though some things are out of your control. This is a great series so far.
Wrong.
Without introductions, you have NO conversation.
It's the ego show. A waste of time.
@@dreyn7780 your new rule about no introduction no conversation probably sounded cool and tough in your head. Anybody with half a brain is realising without introducing yourself you’re another over opinionated knob.
@@Henno1965 well, guys have armed themselves already.
They’re not waiting for introductions.
They just stab the other person straight away.
Every conversation begins with a knife in 2020 onwards.
@SMISHnews that’s so true.
Well said.
These video makers of 2021 are very aggressive trying to manipulate the viewers and take all their money for no community benefit.
Rip curl went out of business and had to get all their spending money from the stock market who have no connection to the beach or surfing.
Then they get a bunch of selfish ego maniacs and make pointless videos of beach use and return to the stock market money people and repeat the process.
Their stores failed to sell me a surfboard and all accessories just 2 weeks ago.
ZERO SALES. And they don’t care they had NO sales for the whole year.
@denny beck yeah, thank you.
I hope everything is going great for your family too.
The ego show we’ve been shown for decades isn’t very entertaining.
I’m so fed up with it, I’m resorting to speaking out about it at every location they put out this crap.
They’ve had their moment in the sun and now they’re being told it’s impossible to be a customer.
Stoked to see what my home land Morocco can offer, big up to our local surfer Jerome for showing the stoke and representing Morocco in the best way.
Most people don't see any comments. 99.99998% of people never saw this EGO show.
These people are scum of the earth.
Morocco offers everything except great hospital staff...
@@Jarhead1313 It's a 3rd world country, what do you expect?!
That was by far the heaviest surf footage ever! The level of individual performance was totally of the chain. All the boys are "Rippers"! And then that dredger that almost cost BK his life. What could be heavier than that. His physical fitness is definitely a factor that was keeping him alive. Way to go young man. I imagine we will be seeing more and more sessions like this. I'm thankful for all the family and friends that helped save Billy's life. Cannot ever replace support like that.
Surfing is this mans life heart and soul and u can see it in his eyes.. billy we thank God you still here man and came back to your family and friends in 1 piece. Stay up brother 🙏🙏🏄♂️ can’t wait for the next chapter ❤️
Life can change in a second. We are resilient, Billy your strength, fortitude , faith and commitment is unbelievable.
the same day i heard the news about what happened to billy in safi the waves were soo big that was like the biggest swell of the year here in morocco, at anchors almost no one surfed it that day. much respect for him. we hope to surf with him again here in taghazout morcco, all love.
That editing was absolute perfection
Man. Shook up here. But to see how this legend has come back from that. Inspirational for sure!! Keep sending it Billy!!🤙
Phenomenal! Amazing waves, emotion, drama, amazing direction, editing and sound editing. And most of all, kudos to Billy!
This story is incredible. This is being counted on with a beautiful production. Congratulations WSL! I admire Billy much more now!
The next episode can't come quick enuff! Great content, surfing and what separates the real from the fake!
Talentless hacks is what they are.
Billy had the winter of a lifetime, top condition and in harmony with the ocean. If anyone can come back from a brutal injury like this it's him... he ain't done.
Damn you Koa Smith for always bein' at the right place at the right time!!
Must be hard to walk with those rabbit-feet!!
Livin' da dream & keepin' it alive!
Good on you!!
That's why the ocean is so unpredictable. You can surf a bunch of massive waves with no problem. Then on a smaller wave on a smaller day, when you have total confidence you get smacked down.
The ocean is 99.998% calm stationary. Fully predicable.
@@chewyr8503 you introduce yourself before you ask questions.
@@chewyr8503 I wonder how dreyn77 got out of his padded cell.His lack of empathy for someone who almost died in the ocean and the hell he went through to " make it" is mind blowing.
Seriously what an awesome group of gentlemen!! A brotherhood all on its own.
Billy, sending you lots of aloha and love from an old Kuau Aunty 🌊🌈❤️
I shattered my pelvis in a helicopter logging accident and the broken bone pieces sliced open my right femoral artery my bladder and bowel !
I was bleeding internally for about 1.5 hours at least as we were way up the coast of BC and the heli flight took that long to get to the hospital 😑 I thought I was paralyzed because as the blood was filling my leg I was losing feeling in it ! It was beyond pain and I thought I better just concentrate on breathing or I could actually die 🤯
That was 25 years ago !
It was a hard recovery but I returned to logging just over a year later ! Eventually i became a commercial diver but the accident has taken a toll on me and I was never the same after !
I have massive respect for Billy as a surfer and person to make it through such a traumatic accident and for getting back in the horse 🤙🏼
Heavy! Great to hear you recovered!!!
This was an excellent story and video. Well done and thank you. Impressive water shots at Safi. Pleased to see Billy made it. I assume Chapter 3 will include some detail on the rescue ? Love Morocco. Heading back ASAP.
Great series on Billy, looking forward to the next one 🔥
Best content ever!?
For sure🤙
@Rad!. then, hey! Guess what, you can go do that. If you don't like this change the channel, but don't run on to people who like it about how bad it is.
Sharpe story and exceedingly well done. The visual mixed to this audio was compelling.
I don't know what happens , but am relieved to know this young man is okay as he is telling the story. Glad his children and beautiful wife still have him.
I immediately think about all those Baja trips, big, remote-ish, hours from help....sometimes not seeing another person for weeks...."We're only immortal for a limited time". Damn right.
What a session! We can't wait to watch the next chapter. Billy LEGEND!
He's been destroyed by flat water.
Just imagine if the ocean actually moved.
What a shithead You are.
Introduce yourself.
But before you do, prove you're not a scumbag first.
No introductions, no conversation.
Amazing, that ending gives me chills.. can’t wait for the next 🤗
these type of documentaries must start featuring at canes/similar type festivals. The production and story line are incredible!
👍8/16/22 I’m NOT a surfer, I don’t follow the sport & I have no idea who Billy is but for some strange reason the Universe wanted me see this story & TH-cam kept pushing this video to me. 🤔
For several days TH-cam has been pushing this video to me. So I finally watched the story.🤩💝
Wow, that ending was pure goosebumps!
CHILLS
Same
Same thing. Goosebumps for over a minute! Holy friggin cowbells
AMAZING!!!! Big fan from Ecuador
Series of the year 🙌🙌👑Kemper
Wow!! This serie Is awesome
The first video was amazing, this series should have 10x more views.
Brilliant story from amazing human billy kemper 👏👏👏👏
Talk about an intense ending. I am glad to see billy is able to tell the tale. He needs an award for surviving that.
In 2017 my best friend drowned while surfing a mysto Moroccan wave and his body wasn't recovered for several days. It was a major loss for all of his loved ones back home.
I was lucky enough to speak with him days before the fatal accident, he spoke of how crowded Anchor point and Taghazout were and he was heading out for the search. This series brings back memories of the madman, and how I like to envision the epic session he was having in the moments preceding his death.
The majority of us are not world class professionals such as Billy Kemper, and this speaks volumes about how fragile life can be. I still consider Automobiles to be the most dangerous risk we all take, but it has truly been refreshing to see stylish surfers rocking helmets these days...even though they may not provide as much safety as the man-bun (koa).
RIP madman. Heal up Billy and navigate the throes of imagination, doubt and tragedy that must be stirring through your mind so you can charge as hard as ever. Much love to all.
Great stuff!!
I was like.. that must have hurt. What must a wipe out like that feels?
Then saw it was the actual wave that put him down
What a legend
Holy S#%t Billy,
That looked So Heavy,
I'm blown away at what you & Da Boyz are doing out there these days. Watching you from Hana Buddah dayz @ Ho'okipa to today gives me a real sense of gratitude for being part of this surfing community & having been friends of Justin ,Eric, Steve Cooney & all the fun & adventures along the way. Your accomplishments speak for themselves. Kep killin' it!
Wishing for you & your famiiy _ Health & Happiness
Awesome photography and the music was spot on very tribal and awesome Surfing. 🤙🏼🍺
I’ve always been into documentaries but his one is beyond special The Giant waves and billy and company being such superstars not anyone can do this 🌊 🌊 🔥🔥🔥🔥
that wave is incredible. the wave that took Billy down was throwing wider than it was tall. Gnarly! So sick though. He will bounce back better than ever.
@butti fdft I like rights 😂
Amazing
To a rapid and full recovery Billy!
(unfortunately too many of us have been 'there'; fortunately many of us fully recovered!)
Great film!
Love this videofrom Indonesia❤️❤️🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
Those waves in Morocco are INCREDIBLE, and the rides captured in the video are also out of this world. Reminds me a bit of the "Endless Summer" sequences in Jeffrey's Bay but much bigger and not the length of rides at Jeffrey's. Anyway, the tragic events Billy went through must have been so grueling. His survival was like a long ride on a nightmarish wave of torture for weeks.
God Bless You and keep you. 🌊🙏🏄♂️
Big Up from Safi " Morocco "
⚓🌊❤🤙🇲🇦 ^^
I am intrigued to explore Morocco. I hope we can learn more about the surf scene there.
this series is super good
Good content guys, all hail these maniacs!
Kudos to Erik & Pat at WSL giving Billy a shot at surviving his life threatening injury.
Damn it I Wana watch it all!!!
Good stuff
excelente point marroco !!! billy genio!! saludos desde argentina ! Mar de ajo
I wish Kemper a quick recovery time . Be well bro.
I need more of this…
Welcome to Safi
So cool!!! 🤙🏼😃🔥
All surfers most wear a helmet ⛑️. Thank you Billy for this video. You are a true warrior
My hero
this spot must be in the plan of WSL next year!!
Welcome to everyone to Safi . Billy we hope you are doing well
Good save ! 🌞
Your a Great and gifted Surfer Billy no doubt.
MERCI
love the dog just taking a shit in the left corner at 5:38
God be with you all.
crazy to see how an insane day of scoring waves can turn into the worst circumstance
What he got was what he deserved.
God straightened out the crooked.
@@dreyn7780 WDYM Billy didn't deserve it
@@colinthoms2025 I’ve got no time left to research lettering.
The 24 hours thing is FULL with 36 hours.
Nobody has time for communication with other humans.
@@dreyn7780 intro douche yo self or no more talking smack
😤
Inspiring story
That music was epic as well..who is it?
Awesome barrels with surfing off the charts. But it looks like a dangerous wave and set up.
Shook at that ending
Hands down
Life is a special trip. Respectfully, Scott
A onda ficou muito oca ,😯😯 power wave
Hanging on, biting my nails till next installment. Whew!
He had a performance at the XCEL @ Sunset prior to stardom where for the first time in a Very long time I was like Holy Fuck! Who is that Guy. Full on Power Hacks. Speed. Flow. Power! His style is alot Better now too.
Muito foda este cara surfa muito 🙏👏👏🔥👊
Looks amazing when the come out of wave
They come out of 🌊 wave
Did you see the wave they were riding?
That was sick I'm buying a ticket next time there is a swell. Morocco here i come!
Woot woot
Love u billy
Song when they are surfing?
My God what is that amazing music around 10 mins plus?
Billy the Badass!
Billy is the man
Tough to “like”this one!
Those barrels in Morocco were amazing but 4:39 is un-friggin-believable!!!
What website is he using to look at the swells? Anyone know. 😎
holy fuck that jaws barrel the whole time i was like "no way he makes this, no way he makes this.... holy shit he's gonna make it"
Anyone scope the dog behind Healey? 5:39
Fuck that’s funny. Potential to go viral
Classic observation.
😆
oddly enough, and if I remember correctly, 'safi' means 'enough' in Moroccan Arabic...
Those waves are scary 😬
Safi la vida💙💙💙
Heavy.....
Heavy. Surfing is no joke when the waves get big. Been there.
oi Gente to passando aqui ((( Brasil ))))
Where’s part 3
It’s like the ying and yang of life - huge highs must be paid for with huge lows. Billy you are a top bloke best wishes from Brisbane mate keep living and loving your beautiful family! At the end of the day they are all that truly matter.
“Huge highs must be paid with huge lows”
So fatalistic ugh
They have left us with a total cliffhanger here
Respect for jaws killer
I feel like this could've been an AMAZING 90 min documentary that even non surfers could enjoy. I could share it with the average person and they would watch.
Seems like the 6 episode thing was a mistake and the promo for this is weak. All the comments on promo posts places like facebook are asking for more info and where they can watch. The paid ads on Facebook DONT EVEN TELL YOU HOW TO WATCH IT.
I want this to succeed and this criticism comes from the right place. Seems like they really dropped the ball spreading the word on this, its great content
That waves looks so Mental scoring
