rory: i think it is complicated.aird will do things nobody else will do and there seems to be from the outside a fearlessness when you look at it, and i think the reality and i think another thing that makes laird stand out is that he's extraordinarily disciplined. and i don't think he's reckless. you know, it's not somebody -- charlie: fearless does not mean to be reckless. rory: no, but this is where it's complicated. because i think he works with fear. he has a relationship with fear that he learns from. that's one of the things that drew me to the story. fear andve moments of how you handle it and how you work through it is arguably a spiritual a path, and a space where laird spends a lot of time in. charlie: who is bill hamilton? >> he was my step dad and my hero and my older brother and my competition, and a lot of different people. [laughter] rory charlie: it's great, though. your mother moved to hawaii. your dad left to go into the merchant marines. and then he became your mentor. everything. laird: yeah. big

rory: foreign idea, huh?rd: in order to ride the biggest waves in the world i realized that conventional surf boards weren't going to be effective because of the texture and the speed that the waves move. and so the hydrofoil board allowed me to lift up from the surface and not be affected by surface tension. if waves get up to 100 feet, they move faster than we're capable of being with them. and so now we have to figure out other techniques and so through towing and through hydrofoil boards, we can ride waves. charlie: explain towing. laird: it's a technique we developed that we use a water ski-like technique to propel ourselves onto waves that are physically too big and too -- charlie: to get you going. laird: right. like a space shuttle. charlie: and purists began to question that too? laird: oh, yeah. of course. because you buck the status quo. so whenever you kind of shake -- i say shake the pillars, people have a tendency to resist. and a big part of that is because people don't want to change. charlie:

gentlemen first just want to get your reaction first of all to rory stewart statement. while the sun fortunate though we have no government ministers making such. frankly reckless and jingoistic statements we have something called the rule of law and due process and if the government wants to introduce some kind of death penalty under the criminal justice system with. within the frame of. the process and the rule of law then they should try and do it you know in the conventional way i'm going through the problem and not you know seeking to apparently essentially what is maybe maybe happening is extra do just full killings of its own citizens eventually. ben what's your reaction. well i'm surprised this is got so much attention because a week ago michael farland made it very clear that if you are british and you decide to pursue the roots of jihad and travel to violence you will be killed. i don't think it is in any way inconsistent with laws and practices or what government policy has been rory stewart was talking specifically i believe and i think he has clarified abou

yesterday, rory stewart said recruits to is should not be helped to come back home.ay to deal with them is, as the secretary of state for defence has said, as rory stewart has said as well, are through the actions that we and others are taking through coalition forces, which is to clearly to kill them in the way in which, you know, the various strikes have been taking place. our defence correspondent jonathan beale is here. what are we to make of these claims? i think these comments go further than what the defence secretary has said so far which is, essentially, that if britons go to fight in iraq and syria for is, then by dint of their membership they are legitimate targets. not because they are british but because they are fighting for is. this is slightly different. it raises questions about whether there is effectively a shoot to kill policy to target britons fighting in iraq and syria for is. rory stewart, the foreign office minister, said over the weekend that the only way to do with britons who have gone to iraq and syria to fight for them is to kill them. th

to anything that comes out as mouth so can i have a say yeah however i would simply point out that rory stewart was absolutely correct of course we should hunt dion and exterminate every terrorist in syria he was agreeing with the american general who started to do that and i would take it one stage further actually i would simply say this if we believe that it's right to hunt down and kill islamic terrorists in syria and we know according to our own security services he's going to use a law mcleroy if there's really nothing about terrorism backs. sorry please don't interrupt so if we believe we could three and a half thousand of them here in the u.k. surely on the same logic that must also prevail at the end of the day you only went to war if you defeat the enemy and this is something that i'm afraid mo seems quite unable to comprehend those who fight for islamic state it be they in the u.k. be the answer you be there forever or the enemy and therefore the our obligation must be to kill them no you want to respond. yeah absolutely and i couldn't quite hear a lot of those utterings from
