This is a shot of the 2007 grounding and subsequent helicopter evacuation of 22 Filipino and Korean crew members form the Pasha Bulker of Newcastle (2 hours north of Sydney) Australia and a very angry Pacific Ocean. Record ocean swell heights of 14.13m (46ft) were recorded at the deep water buoy 10km (6.2 miles) off Sydney

Wow, what a moment captured! The splashes... can’t believe I was swimming in the same sea by Newcastle...

Yes it was a wild few days.

Wow what an amazing storm that was. Caught some of the most insane waves of my life that swell! Good memories :)

Yes the waves were epic
