Very few of us will get to experience the thrill of riding a monster wave. Ben Larg does. He's a Scottish surfer brought up on a small island of Tiree, and you can now find him not just catching a wave but on the silver screen too. At just 12 Ben was already the under 18 Scottish champion. He was all set for the Olympics before he gave up competition to chase big waves. Taken by the danger and Ben's young age director Martyn Robertson decided to film the adventure. Here's a bit of the trailer of this new documentary Ride the Wave.
