During the Kon-Tiki Expedition in 1947, the crew encountered waves that were reported to reach heights of up to 30–35 feet (9–11 meters) in the open Pacific Ocean. 🌊 Thor Heyerdahl and his team described some of these swells as massive, slow-moving rollers typical of the South Pacific sometimes so large that the raft would disappear from view in the troughs.

So he built a raft using only materials and techniques available to pre-Columbian peoples—balsa wood, hemp ropes, and bamboo—and named it Kon-Tiki.
