British big-wave surfer Tom Lowe has achieved his dream of riding one of the world's most dangerous waves at Todos Santos in Baja California, Mexico.
He's thought to be the first Briton to surf in the area and conquered a 12 meter wave in the dangerous spot known as killers.
The daredevil surfer, who's originally from Cornwall but now lives in Ireland, set himself the challenge of paddling into the wave, instead of being towed, which required considerable skill.
He successfully rode the massive wave on the Mexican coast - where one of the top five biggest waves ever surfed was recorded at 20 metres.
Lowe's dream was made possible through Vodafone Firsts, a global programme to inspire people to do something remarkable for the first time.
