Jamie O’Brien was unfazed by setting himself on fire

In 2015, Jamie rode one of the world’s most hazardous waves at Teahupo’o, Tahiti. The surfer added a risky element to his experience by setting his back on fire. It was the 39-year-old’s dream to perform a surfing stunt as deadly as this.

Jamie practiced the stunt many times with his team in Los Angeles. Once everyone felt he was ready, the location was shifted to Tahiti. In the beginning, he surfed through casual waves while being towed by his team on a speedboat. However, as soon as they saw the treacherous waves, they lit the surfer’s back on fire, and waited for the stunt to become a success.
