Tubular, dude!
Surfer Garrett McNamara, a 44-year-old pro surfer, was just recognized by Guinness World Records for riding the tallest wave EVER!
It was a 78-foot wave off the coast of Portugal!
The funniest part is he almost didn't get out of bed that morning after a full previous day of wipe outs.
"I was really beat-up that morning. This day, I did not want to get out of bed."
Luckily, his friends got him to come out that day.
Check out the video (above) to watch him ride a tidal wave.
Cowabunga!

Big-wave surfer Laird Hamilton is a certified hottie with a body.
How did he get his body?
His workout? All the surfing? Drinking sea water? (Don't do that.)
Apparently it's mostly his diet! He said:

We can kinda see that.
Apparently, Hunger Games star Liam Hemsworth is quite the surfer and actually wanted to go pro instead of going to Hollywood!
The hunky boyfriend of Miley Cyrus told Australia's GQ Style issue:
“I surfed competitively and made it to the state rounds where I was competing with the top surfers in Victoria. All my friends were surfers. All we wanted to do was be Kelly Slater.”
For the record, we wouldn't mind watching him catch a few waves…as long as his shirt is off, of course! LOL!
As good of a surfer as he may have been and may still be, we think he made the right decision to become a movie star. After all, he's one of the best young talents' the movie industry has to offer!

Jimmy Buffett decided to catch some waves and some sun and took his paddle boat for a ride!
The singer took a trip to St. Barths and enjoyed the French waves and caught the whole thing on tape.
He even had a wipeout but managed to pick himself up and paddle on again!
Looks like someone drank from the Fountain of Youth!

And it looks like she is a little faster than he is! Ha!
Dennis Quaid went for a jog with his wife, Kimberly, on Wednesday while on vacation in Hawaii.
The Footloose actor may one day be living on the island permanently, as sources say he recently put his Montana ranch up for sale and has said he dreams of moving to Hawaii to spend more time surfing!
We don't look at the 57-year-old and think of a surfer dude, but apparently he discovered his love for the aquatic sport while filming Soul Surfer.
Follow your passion, Dennis! Everyone else can check out more pics of the Hollywood veteran running through the tropical paradise below!
