"To be a bullrider you have to have that eye of the tiger. You got to have that desire in your heart." Ezekiel Mitchell learned how to ride bulls from YouTube videos at the age of 16 and he was good — so good that he went pro to support his family. Then Hurricane Harvey hit, and his mom’s home was decimated. Now he’s climbing his way back to the top of this vicious sport, with the help of serial entrepreneur Max Maxwell and is on his way to becoming the first black bull rider to win a world title in 39 years.

Riding The Giant | Maya Gabeira
The Comeback
11/09/21 • 34 min
"Imagine trying to outrun a 10-story building that is crumbling right behind you— that's big wave surfing." The hundred-foot waves in Nazare, Portugal are the most dangerous in the world, but Maya Gabeira didn’t fear them. In fact, she felt alive riding these monsters, addicted to the death-defying dance of Big Wave Surfing. But the conditions in Nazare can change in an instant, and when multiple waves pummeled her to the bottom of the ocean she was lucky to escape with career-ending injuries. Ridiculed by her peers and left without sponsorship, it seemed like an impossible dream to surf again, let alone break world records.
