British surfer puts her fear aside to tackle monster wave
Surfer Laura Crane from Devon may have surfed the biggest wave by a woman at the Nazare Big Wave Challenge in Portugal, potentially breaking the current 73.5ft world record. The wave is under review by the Big Wave Challenge and Guinness World Records. Crane described the wave as the largest she had ever seen, calling it a "big shock".
