this Is Dope.....=D
Even if that photo was used as a placeholder, the story itself is definitely possible. I have a group of buddies that were out there for 2 weeks and got it pretty good.

Call me a sceptic BUT !!! ....
1.Surfers in Samoa do not wear full lenght wetsuits even in the 'winter months' when water temp is still 20-22 deg C
2.Tsunami conditions do not like the photo shown ... maybe this is Niel surfing back home in wellington ...?
3. The water colour is nothing like what you would expect after a tsunami and in this tropical region ... lack of debris in water etc
Maybe I got this wrong and the pic is of the guy surfing back home ...?
Click the source of the picture.
It brings you to the photographer Flickr page, and the title for the photo is "Newport Beach, California".
dude ur an idiot....read the article first.....obviously the picture is not of the day the tsunami hit....dumba$$
If you click on the link under the photo ("TravOC", who the photo belongs to), it takes you to a Flickr.com account where it gives info about the photo. ["Surfer, Newport Beach California"] It was probably used as stock photo to dress up the article a bit, it wasn't intended to portray what was happening. Besides, I'm sure that Mr. Nel and the other surfers mostly paddled their way to safety, since tsunami waves aren't really all that "surf-able".
Interesting article thought.
