O’Brien trained with a Los Angeles-based stunt crew before performing the stunt in Tahiti, reports CNET. In the video, he surfs Teahupoo, or “The End of the Road,” one of the most dangerous waves in the world. O’Brien is shown being lit on fire, and then riding the wave, looking more like the “Fantastic Four’s” Human Torch than real-life surfing star.

Curious about how it was all pulled off? Well, Red Bull also posted a behind-the-scenes video of the stunt for your viewing pleasure.
