Every living being on this planet has a need to connect with something greater than itself. From the tiniest snail attempting to cross a vast and unpredictable sidewalk, to each surfer ignoring their own fragile ‘shells’ every time they paddle out into the awesome power of the ocean. Samsung believes it’s this basic need that leads to progress, and that progress always leads to more progress. As sponsor of the WSL World Championship Tour, Samsung has continually witnessed the world’s best surfers push their limits and in the process, spread the love of the sport to new and unexpected parts of the world. In ‘Snail,’ we watch as a young boy in India pushes beyond both his physical and cultural limitations to connect with a world of surfing he's only seen on his phone. Come celebrate with Samsung. Proud sponsor of those who defy barriers. #DoWhatYouCant "Samsung - Surf - The Snail" We all get a brief window of opportunity on this planet. And while you're catching up on sleep this morning, consider this. There's a snail out there right now, risking everything, to cross the largest desert of a sidewalk its ever seen. Why? Because it beats hiding in its shell at home. Or maybe it was inspired by every snail that ever successfully reached the other side. I don't know, I'm not really sure what motivates a mollusk. But I do know this. No snail has any idea what's on the other side of that sidewalk. All they know is they have a shell that can be cracked, and maybe not the best reaction time in the animal kingdom.But still they go on the off chance they might actually connect with something greater than themselves. Maybe become one of those snails that inspires another snail. Now, you may say this is dumb. Snails don't surf. Well, neither did any of us. Until we did.
