• Surfing Waves in Tasmania: A part of Tasmania in Australia is known for big waves and attracts surf riders worldwide. Known as Shipsterns Bluff, it can be reached only by an hour boat ride from the nearest inhabited place. The seas are very rough, and sometimes waves reach a height between 8 to 20 feet. The waves defeat the most experienced surfers because the sight of a massive volume of water rushing towards you at the fastest possible speed is incredible, yet it is pretty frightening as well. However, if you manage to surf the waves, there is nothing more memorable than the moment when you are riding the tide toward the shore.

Many mountaineers have died trying to climb K2; however, many ski mountaineers are trying and have not yet succeeded in skiing down K2. If you are a good skier and mountain climber, you can always try skiing down K2.
