@@stefflus08 Thx for your information. Does this take place offshore the LOFODEN ISLANDS? And is it also true that the whirlpool is called "Moskoe Strom" in Norwegian?
You kinda did. The camera was so close to the water that you could only see the edge, but around 1:20 you can see the water appear to rise. In actuality, this is the formation of a vortex pulling the boat back/down towards its center. You can even hear the engine working overtime to overcome the force of that tidal flow.
@@hans-christianreimann1112 That's awesome 👌 That book was literally my childhood. It was a birthday gift. It's been a huge inspiration in my Architecture designs too. I honestly believe it shaped me, in many ways😎
@@nova3530onyt 20000 leagues under the sea (in german 20000 Meilen unter dem meer) was the First Jules Verne book i have ever read. In Back to the future Part 3 that book is beeing mentioned and since then i wanted to red it. So I did. In the beginning it was sort of Boring and it took a long time to finish it. After reading some other masterpieces i tried this one again and now it is one of my favorites and so is Jules Verne.
'they that go down to the sea in ships': from Psalm 107, King David. They that go down to the sea in ships, and occupy their business in great waters; These men see the works of the Lord and his wonders in the deep. For at his word the stormy wind ariseth, which lifteth up the waves thereof.
Try travelling across it in a small boat, you'll probably need a change of underwear afterwards! A maelstrom doesn't look like a bigger version of the water going down your sink, it is composed of dozens of whirlpools.
Well - as long as wind and current is running in the same direction it’s not a problem at all. Current may be running at up to 4-5 knots but pretty peacefully. However- as soon as the tide changes and starts running against the wind pretty rough sea can build within minutes!
"Mighty"? Waste of my precious time. Whirlpool? None, zero, zip. Maelstrom? Barely choppy . Calm waters abound Shame on you for your mistepresentation.
@matosonmania A maelstrom isn't like a giant version of your sink emptying. These are very dangerous waters, there were whirlpools all around except you were too dumb to see them.
Thank you Cixin Liu for introducing me to this in wonderful detail. (Also for informing me of Edgar Allen Poe's piece on this wonderful bit of nature)
Literally just read about it in the third book and came here to look it up haha
Same for me :)

centralperk27 thanks man. Poe’s description isn’t all wrong 😉. He claims that it gets dark at night during summer though 🤷♂️
Ditto!
@@srenfrederiksen6455 Is this whirlpool THAT dangerous?
Or has its fame been exaggerated throughout history?
@@edwardamosbrandwein3583 The real gnarly things happen in bad weather, with standing waves.

I know this sounds stupid but I was expecting an experience to see a whirlpool up close
