German Sebastian Steudtner is the new record holder for the biggest wave ever surfed, a 26 metre (86ft) wave ridden on October 29, 2020 in Nazaré, Portugal. The video recently resurfaced after Guinness World Records certified the record-breaking feat on May 24, 2022. The giant wave was surfed in Nazaré, a site known for its massive swells caused by a large fault line on the ocean floor.
