He is a Big Wave World Tour Champion a 4-time winner of the Peahi Challenge and one of the greatest big wave surfers of all time. Kemper suffered a horrific wipeout during a surf session at a powerful Moroccan point break, and despite the blurry X-ray and flickering light, the crack in his pelvis was there for all to see.With the full extent of his injuries still uncertain, he was rushed to a larger hospital in Casablanca, where higher quality imaging confirmed his broken pelvis and collapsed lung, as well a litany of other debilitating injuries. Only upon his return to the United States by privately chartered medical flight did further imaging reveal the ligament damage to his knee – ACL, MCL, meniscus – all gone. He was lucky to be alive. Nevertheless Billy was already back in the water by the Summer - this story will blow your mind and have you captivated the entire time.
