Yes. This is exactly what it looks like. Two surfers, Garrett McNamara and Kealii Mamala, hang around a glacier until a giant chunk falls off, fire up their jet ski and attempt to surf the ensuing wave. It's also as dangerous as it sounds, ordinarily waiting around underneath a glacier is a pretty dumb thing to do, and the surfers spent a lot of their time in Alaska wondering if they'd ever go home again. The falling glaciers produced waves up to 25 feet, and although the surfers were used to towing into Hawaiian waves, they weren't used to glacial tidal waves! Crazy stuff.
Like that? Try this: Body boarder gets munched by wave | Glen Coe does a double back flip...on a mountain bike | The radio controlled surfer that surfs better than you do | Female wakeboard slams. Ouch
