“We seldomly share footage while in production of a new doc but…this just happened today in Nazare.
While shooting GMAC’s @mcnamara_s return to Nazare Cotty @andrew_cotty got the gnarliest wipe out we have ever seen! By the way, that is not the board flying in the air…Thankfully Cotty’s ok… He’s currently at the hospital recovering. Andy, the team and I are sending you all the love.”
