Aussie big-wave surfing legend Ross Clarke-Jones nearly drowns at Nazare, Portugal

Australian Big Wave Surfer and former World Tour Competitor Ross Clarke-Jones almost drowned 

this morning at Portugal’s famous big wave spot, Nazare .

Ross, known for his big wave surfing in huge waves across the globe, by his standards the 25ft waves out at Nazare were small in comparison to other bigger swells surfed.

But after admitting he got a little complacent in the conditions, the 51-year-old very nearly paid with his life.

Ross has been admitted to  hospital, rather bruised and concussed with a suspected broken leg.
