As Dorian pushed through Atlantic Canada it caused widespread damage and power outages, and whipped up quite a stormy sea.


Hurricane Dorian apparently caused a 100-foot wave and three other waves of around 75 feet off the coast of Newfoundland.


A 100 foot (30 meter) wave is taller than an eight-story building.


A buoy owned by the Marine Institute recorded the monster wave on Saturday night.
