    For Bigwavemaster1…have a question for you or if anybody can answer. What is that white dot that starts across the screen at 0.29 seconds? Was that transfer from a light or something on the bridge while filming? Just curious if there is an answer for what it could have been.

      As the rescue ship we very rarely hear of any accidents on the platforms.
      We film some of the largest waves ever caught on camera.
      We work with 2 North Sea oil platforms that can accurately measure wave height so no guessing or exaggeration.

    These guy's are INCREDIBLE ~ AMAZING ~ FASCINATING, talk about ball's of steel ! I think that should be changed to ball's of Titanium. They are definitely in a league of their own. I worry about them all & sooo hope that everyone of them remains safe. Please be careful. That thing is a BEAST, its MASSIVE ! Why are they adding on to it, is it not huge enough ? Does it sway with the waves or is that just the boat the camera man is in ? I would think something that huge would fall over pretty easy if it were rolling with the waves. X'cellent video !! Super 8nteresting !! Thank u ! 😁✌️🇺🇲

    The North Sea has crazy waves but only for a month a year during storm season. I fish the Great Lakes and due to wing and geography the waves get much bigger there than anyone has ever seen or documented. Reminding everyone the loss of Edmund Fitzgerald and her well seasoned crew. Gitche Gumee, The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead
