There's a TV series called "Iconoclasts" on IFC or The Sundance Channel....In one episode Eddie and Laird Hamilton talk about their love of the sea; they're great friends...they come back from Hawaii and Laird rides his bike 85 miles to see PJ at a SoCal show...he gets on stage and is honored by Eddie.

[mdelair420]

[jefffitz17]

Absolutely amazing job on the video! Great editing as well. I would pay to own a copy of this in HD.

[jockey92]

From which album is this?

[Shaitangarou]

Man... It almost made me cry... is just beatiful... the beach and the music, just perfect... In a few months I´ll be there, and I cant believe it yet :)

[insomniacPT]

[MrPawankarki]

Another masterpiece..

[ourvideogroup]

Great stuff, when have you been to indonesia,Uwe

[MarkChipps]

Thanks Uwe!

I have been twice.Once in 2000 and once in 2003. This was taken on the 2nd trip. This video is actually the 1st video I ever edited, and this actually got me onto the road I am on now... I still think this is one of the better ones I have made, or at least it creates the biggest stir and gets the most responses...

[runner19631]

@MarkChipps

Still watch this great video.......wish I could surf

PL

[priukpojokan]

@MarkChipps ...thanks ....that's my country..to promote them to the world..but right now i don't know they have good view or not .after tsunami 2010

[fishskilz1]

I believe Eddies singing about his own salvation in Jesus Christ.Cant get much closer to God than being out in what he created.Great vid Bro.

[MarkChipps]

thanks for the feedback! Is that really what the lyrics are about, or just your opinion? Be interested to know..

[fishskilz1]

I dont know know personally bro. but it feels that way to me......the lyrics and the way he sings it make me lean toward that perspective.Pearl Jam will always be one of the greatest bands of all time and Vedder is a one of a kind vocalist.

[TheDoctorFixer]

@fishskilz1 I am confedant he is singing about it

[defcon71]

@fishskilz1

I think you will find that Eddie Vedder is an atheist....... all though he sings about god,it is usually in the third person (like this song)

[ACHEESEDANISH00]

@fishskilz1 i agree the song is about either his salvation or someone elses. probably his.

[Seanjkbs]

@fishskilz1 Eddie is an atheist

[3Dogs1WifeNme]

[heznel]

[dreamsincolor10]

Completely awesome video! Love it.

I've been looking through Given to Fly vids for a long while wondering...

Why no surf vids to go with this song?? And here it was....Perfect!

Beautiful. Thank you! :)

[thisonesforyoubaby]

Fantastic video.

Is this off the Indonesian coast? Love the ride at 1.20...awesome.

And to pair these images with one of the best voices and bands of the last decade or so....brilliantly done!

[MarkChipps]

Thanks. This is off Indonesia. The Mentawi Islands to be exact. Click on the "Statistics and Data" tab and go to the "recording date & location" to see exaclty where it is!

[dratorent]

[mileswarm]

[vernice30]

i dont give a shit about this video, or how you guys interpreted it! this song can stand alone! like eddie always want! no video..well fuckers its always good to hear this!

[heavenhold7]

I still love it,... again and again. What a trip!

[heavenhold7]

Props, props! This video would make Eddie Veddar proud. What tight footage. Excellent without a doubt! Thank you, Thank you!

[foerum151]

great video, i was just there in May and got some great waves, Looks like a few shots were at HT's. Was any of that Lances left or Tele's?

[MarkChipps]

Hi There.

No, none of the shots were from HT's - we got that a bit small. Most of the barrelling lefts were from an unknown spot called the Hole. There were one or two shots from Tele's. We also had lances a bit small, but good. We had it all pretty good, but this was the best footage, as we were mainly all in the water.

[TheBulha]

Really awesome... i lost my soul in somewhere that video :)

[alancowie]

[Alexthekuffar]

[narshredder21]

[MarkChipps]

no, this was Indonesia - Mentawii Islands. Most of this was shot at a fairly unknown spot - the hole.

[mountainbikingking]

Great work, great film! You guys/gals might be interested to know the 3rd Annual Rip Curl Pro Search will be happening in the Northern Chilean village of Arica from June 20-July 1, 2007. Located just south of Peru in South America, the city of Arica is home to a wave known as "El Gringo", although unanimously considered the "Chilean Pipeline. You can check out all the exclusive video from this private event only at Go211dotcom

[ladywytcheeyes]

This Was so beautifully shot, and wow. Now I think that i can understand why my brother loves to surf so very much. The music fit the film perfectly, and I felt like, just for a minute, i could be there to. Thank you for sharing this with us. Be well, and be true. Walk Softly in the balance, Beautiful waves bless you.

Namaste,
