Famous Big Wave Surfer and Steemer Toby Cunningham On Life, Anarchy, 9/11 Truth and Cryptocurrencies

in life •  8 years ago  (edited)

I recently passed through Miami and the stars aligned for me to interview famous Steemer, @heiditravels.

Apparently that meetup caused a commotion in Peru, of all places, in the post, "When @heiditravels did not show up to the TV-Interview to be aired to 10 million Peruvians, but instead jumped on a flight to visit @dollarvigilante I am sorry to say I DID EXPLODE"

That post turned out be a total lie, though, as @heiditravels explained in her post, "My First Bad Experience with Steemit".

But, while I was carousing around South Beach I ran into a guy who was a Dollar Vigilante fan and subscriber AND, I quickly found out, is a famous big wave surfer, Toby Cunningham!

He asked me what I was doing in Miami and I told him I was just passing through on my way to the Dominican Republic to become a citizen and then to Cuba to interview one of the only anarcho-capitalists in the country (that interview coming soon).

Toby said to me, "Wow, what an amazing life, going to so many different places."

It was then that I asked him what he did and he told me he is a big wave surfer who had just gotten back from Tahiti and was about to head to Portugal to try to break a world record in big wave surfing!

I responded, "Your life sounds way better than mine!"

It turned out he is an anarcho-capitalist and is quite well known as the "Ethereum Surfer" as he often wears the cryptocurrency's shirt while he surfs. And, I soon found out, he also was a Steemer under the name @tobydaniel2.

I told him I was interviewing @heiditravels in the morning and he agreed to come down to my hotel to do an Anarchast.

It's a great interview with a lot of interesting topics covered... including how @heiditravels makes thousands of dollars per post and his story on how his friend nearly died in his arms while surfing ("My Best Friend Almost Died in My Arms") only made $160!

We both lamented on the fact that Heidi has pretty white girl privilege and how unfair it was.

We also got into 9/11 truth, so today is a perfect day to release the video.

It's a great interview and is available exclusively here first on Steemit:

50% of all steem dollars earned on this post will go to @tobydaniel2.

Stay tuned and follow me here on Steemit @dollarvigilante for my upcoming interview with one of the only anarcho-capitalists in Cuba. It was highly dangerous for either of us to even be talking about anarcho-capitalism in Cuba and the interview was truly amazing.

Great interview Jeff, I have been engaging with Toby but had no idea he was a professional surfer.

Wipeout!

I'll be signing autographs later Randy😉

THAT is one helluva wipeout!

Cool!

Ya, that's pretty crazy! Are all those real people or are they all steem bots? Curious to know.

Lots of bots and lots of people who know all DV post bank and thus are good curating reward bets.
It pays to Get results and it pays to bet on those who have proven results.
As we know, no one could read and watch this post in 4 minutes 😉

I upvoted when I read the headline because I saw you were interviewing a big wave surfer who happened to be both an anarchist and on Steemit. My marketing professor was a former pro athlete so he knew a lot about the value of advertising at sporting events. In spite of it yielding huge returns, not a lot of business people know about how much exposure a product can get from advertising at sporting events. Guys like @tobydaniel2 will help put Steemit on the map very quickly if they are helping promote the site.

I agree ! WTFF

Second to comment lol

Nice article though after reading

Thanks mammasitta... are you really a mama sitta? ;)

My pleasure Mister @dollarvigilante ! Oh yes I AM :) look at my very first blog post and you see 🐩 I hope you are patient scrolling 😝
I just found this and still blushing https://steemit.com/nameinlights/@onetree/nameinlights-awesome-mammasitta

"50% of all steem dollars earned on this post will go to @tobydaniel2." thats really epic of you. Well Done, and nice write up.

I just checked on @tobydaniel2 blog and I am happy he gets 50% because I feel he deserves it. Such a nice gesture @dollarvigilante

The cool thing about Steem is you can actually see that I transfer the funds to him... lots of great ways for people to transparently share funds on certain posts whether it be for charity or splitting steem dollars when interviewing someone.

Transparency makes everything more honorable and is one of the best parts of Steemit.
As is Steem, as it is a valuable, that one day we may be trading with each other for almost anything, just like BC or USD.
The potential is there and here we are on the cutting edge~*~

Shred city, keep killing it Toby!

Came to steemit by way of following Luke Ridowski on YouTube who turned me onto you who both in turn brought me to steem. Thanks.

Cool, thanks! And welcome!

Same here. Now it appears he's at Burning Man.

Can you please share the name of the cuban anarcho-capitalist? Im from Cuba (but I live in Berlin since some years now) and did not knew that there where anarcho-capitalist. Anarchist yes, or at least the closest you could to be an anarchist in Cuba, I was one of them... it is kind of same but different at the same time as out of the island... but anarcho-capitalist? That is new for me. Looking forward to see the interview.

We have a TDV Group in Cuba.. there are more than a dozen ancaps there... and constantly harassed and targetted by the government. You can join here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/TDVGroupsHavana/. Just fyi, TDV Groups (http://tdvgroups.com) is a part of a subscription to TDV, but for you with your background we'd welcome you into the group gratis. ;)

Oh! Thanks a lot for the invitation, there is even a TDV cuban group "asere"! That is cool :) I knew about you like 6 months ago when was looking for some info(sadly not before), started to follow your Youtube channel at that time and thanks to that also started to expand my small portfolio to precious metals and not only crypto-coins ;) If you come to Berlin in the future please let me know, would be interesting to have a chat, with beer and cigarettes included, with you.

cool video first steam post!!!

Welcome! TDV is a good "follow" for you, stick with him, and I hope you enjoy being here.

Cool!

thanks Jeff
I just saw your Bix Weir clip.
I never thought he was reasonably sane enough to consider attention.
But lately, I'm thinking he may have been the only sane person and the rest of us are whacko.
Totally twisted and bent now.

Thank you for posting... And introducing me to steemit!!

Anarchast is my numero uno channel on YouTube. Thanks for another great post!

Another great interview as was the one with @heiditravels , I am new to Steemit and joined thanks to your video on The Dollar Vigilante. I look forward to seeing more of your posts and others as I navigate my way around, Cheers.
