For some time I have had a non-watch collecting pastime of saving images from various sources that show people (and other animals) doing things which seem spectacular or crazy or amazing or courageous or all four simultaneously.

It has been fun, so I thought I would share a few to start the ball rolling. I would love to see what other OF members might have. (It might be tempting, but politics is definitely a no-no).


Big wave at Nazare, Portugal


Heavy weather at Bondi Beach, Australia


Compare the stance in the previous image. The duck looks pretty professional.
I saved this years ago, so I don't think it is AI generated.
