The third in our triage of close encounters of the Marine kind off sunny California. And while we’ve seen some pretty funky sh*t on this blog, especially off the coast of California, I gotta say this one will make you soil yourself more than any other. The scene, a surfer lazily taking in a nice day off Santa Cruz, California. And then…watch. The third tag I’ve added to this post sums it up pretty nicely.

Man, some guys just look death in the face and tell it to F&#k Off.  Fortunately for Ramiana van Bastolaer, the world-renowned big wave surfer did just that, with an Oh Shit moment for the record books and a video that will make your jaw hit the floor.

Watch this video, of Reef McIntosh’s jet ski flying over head and literally, I mean literally, miss Bastolaer by inches. McIntosh had towed Bastolaer out for some big wave surfing action and bailed right when the wave turned nasty and, well, the full story is here.

The jet ski didn’t make it, but McIntosh and Bastolaer and both ok, and Bastolaer stayed on the wave and has one of the sickest, narrow miss videos in history to prove it. Sick Sick Sick. Bastolaer, as someone comments on YouTube, is a F%$*ing Ninja.

You just gotta love those Norwegians.  Vikings, death metal, and now…their best invention ever…wing-suits.  I’m not sure what I like better, the absolutely SICK video of these guys hitting 200 miles an hour, or the screams of the observers as the wing-suit wackos fly past.  But the best part?  Listen to the blond lady’s only English words in the Norwegian-conducted interview.  I’ll give you a hint.  What would you say if you saw two guys flying at you at 200 miles an hour?

Exactly!

God bless those Norwegians!
