    I live near Noyo Harbor, CA. The locals will flock to the elevated ocean overlooks whenever 20 - 30 foot swells hit the coast. The waves can double in height when they cross the reef so you need to be up well above that. Fortunately it usually happens when there are few visitors to our area. Still there are too many people drown from being swept off the beaches when the big waves crash in.

    It reminds me back in the day in Cornwall in portreath beach ( I believe you spell it like that or at least pronounce it like that) . Waves were so big they came all the way up coving whole beach crashing into and over the two big walls stacked like steps and over into the parking lot. My mum almost lost me that day when she spotted me by the edge of the top wall by the railing standing on a upside down frisbee waiting for the waves to come so I could catch a ride but she ran over and scooped me up in time. I lost the frisbee that day but yea.. good times. There was even a surfer out in those waves that looked about that size lol if anyone knows portreath beach close to or in Redruth /Penzance leave a comment. It would be nice hearing from someone from my hometown area. Maybe even my friend Leon Watson Sheppard . Miss him and everyone over there. This also happened about 24-26 years ago. Im 31 now

    Filmmakers have been pulling the very-long-lens plus foreground-shot-at-distance trick on waves since at least Flaherty's 'Man of Aran' in the early 1930s.
    Not to say these aren't big waves, just that very specific camerawork is being used to hugely exaggerate their appearance. Pity to see the BBC presenting it without context.

There's two choices you can make now, either accept that greed is a natural and moral thing, or accept that nature is evil, your choice.
