Huge Wave at the 40 Foot, Sandycove, Dublin, Ireland

Footage from stormy weather on 9th November 2010 at the 40 foot bathing place in Sandycove, Dublin, Ireland. Got a vantage point high up on a wall - but nearly not high enough, when a couple of *huge* waves came in of almost tsunami-like proportions. Ended up being pretty scarey and soaked to the skin. Hail the power of Mother Nature!
