    30 years as sailing marine engineer.
    Stabilizers malfunction and tip the ship in calm seas.
    Pumps fail sometimes in multiples causing the loss of ability to transfer water or bunkers.
    Main engines trip as in the case of the El Faro.
    Witnessed a crack all the way across the main deck of a 15 year old container ship. Fortunately it was discovered and we were able to slow down and made it to a nearby port.
    When men are involved mistakes happen.
    When nature is involved there is always a larger event possible.
    And as others commented there is a vast difference between a boat and a ship.

      El Faro was an accident that didn't need to happen, 95% on the "captain" and his ego, but that whole oil pump was a bad design, as well as those dated lifeboats... .
      Is there any truth to what i've read about it, certain people that all claimed to engineers, have said they should have over filled the oil tank when the list got really bad, then pumped it to a overflow tank after the list was taken care of? Not that it would have ever righted itself, that shipped was already doomed at that point .

      I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, show this also to thy servant: whether after death, as soon as every one of us yields up his soul, we shall be kept in rest until those times come when thou wilt renew the creation, or whether we shall be tormented at once?" 76 He answered me and said, "I will show you that also, but do not be associated with those who have shown scorn, nor number yourself among those who are tormented. 77 For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High; but it will not be shown to you until the last times.
      78 Now, concerning death, the teaching is: When the decisive decree has gone forth from the Most High that a man shall die, as the spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, first of all it adores the glory of the Most High. 79 And if it is one of those who have shown scorn and have not kept the way of the Most High, and who have despised his law, and who have hated those who fear the Most High -- 80 such spirits shall not enter into habitations, but shall immediately wander about in torments, ever grieving and sad, in seven ways.
      81 The first way, because they have scorned the law of the Most High. 82 The second way, because they cannot now make a good repentance that they may live. 83 The third way, they shall see the reward laid up for those who have trusted the covenants of the Most High. 84 The fourth way, they shall consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days. 85 The fifth way, they shall see how the habitations of the others are guarded by angels in profound quiet. 86 The sixth way, they shall see how some of them will pass over into torments. 87 The seventh way, which is worse than all the ways that have been mentioned, because they shall utterly waste away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall wither with fear at seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they sinned while they were alive, and before whom they are to be judged in the last times.
      88 "Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from their mortal body. 89 During the time that they lived in it, they laboriously served the Most High, and withstood danger every hour, that they might keep the law of the Lawgiver perfectly. 90 Therefore this is the teaching concerning them: 91 First of all, they shall see with great joy the glory of him who receives them, for they shall have rest in seven orders.
      92 The first order, because they have striven with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was formed with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death. 93 The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the unrighteous wander, and the punishment that awaits them. 94 The third order, they see the witness which he who formed them bears concerning them, that while they were alive they kept the law which was given them in trust. 95 The fourth order, they understand the rest which they now enjoy, being gathered into their chambers and guarded by angels in profound quiet, and the glory which awaits them in the last days. 96 The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped what is corruptible, and shall inherit what is to come;
      and besides they see the straits and toil from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they are to receive and enjoy in immortality. 97 The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face is to shine like the sun, and how they are to be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on. 98 The seventh order, which is greater than all that have been mentioned, because they shall rejoice with boldness, and shall be confident without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of him whom they served in life and from whom they are to receive their reward when glorified.
      99 This is the order of the souls of the righteous, as henceforth is announced; and the aforesaid are the ways of torment which those who would not give heed shall suffer hereafter." 100 I answered and said, "Will time therefore be given to the souls, after they have been separated from the bodies, to see what you have described to me?" 101 He said to me, "They shall have freedom for seven days, so that during these seven days they may see the things of which you have been told, and afterwards they shall be gathered in their habitations."
      102 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, show further to me, thy servant, whether on the day of judgment the righteous will be able to intercede for the unrighteous or to entreat the Most High for them, 103 fathers for sons or sons for parents, brothers for brothers, relatives for their kinsmen, or friends for those who are most dear." 104 He answered me and said, "Since you have found favor in my sight, I will show you this also. The day of judgment is decisive and displays to all the seal of truth. Just as now a father does not send his son, or a son his father, or a master his servant, or a friend his dearest friend, to be ill or sleep or eat or be healed in his stead, 105 so no one shall ever pray for another on that day, neither shall any one lay a burden on another; for then every one shall bear his own righteousness and unrighteousness." 2 Esdras 7:75

    The methods described in this video are to stabilise the ship in heavy seas. Sadly, that won't stop a ship sinking. I used to run large oil products tankers from Europe to New York. I once had a 75,000 tonne ship enter a severe Atlantic storm to rescue a yachtsman. Lost its front two cargo hatches so the holds that were originally filled with 25,000 tonnes of gasoline were suddenly filled with 35,000 tonnes of seawater. The ship went bow down into mountainous waves and its keel eventually fractured. Limped into New York, beached on a sand bar and was unloaded with barges as it was in danger of sinking.
    Yachtsman saved themselves by just battening down hatches and riding out the storm.

    What people don't realize is that wave does not hits you or ship as water, it hits as concrete. The bigger the wave, the distance it hits from the heavier it will be. So it can indeed break ship, it might not be able to roll it over but definitely can damage and sink it.

    (As dramatized in Titanic) Ismay: "But this ship can't sink!" Andrews: "She's made of iron, sir; I assure you she can." The only ships that can't sink are ones made of materials lighter than water, such as foam composites. These won't sink but can be broken. Misleading even more, the self-righting clips are of specialty boats such as Thunder Child and rescue vessels; these were purposely constrained in their design to be self-righting. Verrrry few craft have an "angle of vanishing stability" high enough to self-right; as others said, all it takes is one hatch, window, or other failure to lose the air that gives most self-righting vessels their buoyancy.

    I'm a retired merchant mariner with 42 years and I assure you that if a vessel of any kind is made out of metal and floats on the water it can sink. There have been fiberglass boats with injected closed cell foam, (Boston Whaler for example) that I believe would be almost impossible to sink, but never say never. For example, if you added too much weight, even on a Boston Whaler, it too could sink. It's hard to imagine anyone doing something that stupid but it's possible.

    With over 25 years of experience as a naval architect, I've seen my fair share of challenges at sea. Even in calm waters, I've witnessed stabilizer systems fail, leading to unexpected tilting of the vessel. There are times when multiple pump failures occur simultaneously, crippling our ability to manage ballast or fuel transfers. Remember the tragic case of the El Faro? It serves as a stark reminder of how main engine failures can lead to catastrophic consequences.

    Most of the content does not apply to large vessels, but to small boats. 50 years in the Maritime Industry, including 18 years at sea I have never known a large vessel to capsize in heavy seas, you always head into the waves or swell. Most large ships that capsize do so cargo due to shifting even very calm conditions, especially when carrying ore which may be over its flow moisture point.

      Off the top of my head, experts said rogue waves couldn't be larger than 70 feet,I think it was, because the base couldn't support the wave, whatever height the "experts" rated the height at we've found that they were completely wrong & many sailors unfortunately proved it with their lives. No size, no technology, no expert seamanship can save any ship, boat or any craft that rides the waves if "that" rogue wave happens to show up. Whether on water, in the air or on land, there isn't a single thing human beings can create that nature can't completely destroy. We can, at best, improve our odds & nothing more.

    A sailboat (keel) will also self-right and those things go down all the time. Most trans-ocean racing boats also self-right, and additionally the cabins can be sealed water tight. Those also go down. Sealed hatches can breech and you can take on water. You can improve your odds but you can never determine your outcomes.

Admittedly I felt compelled to play devil's advocate just because of the video statement at the beginning & didn't really disagree with anything you had written. In my opinion, the very best asset to prolong sailors lives is a commonsense respect for the sea & the weather. The ocean simply makes our best & biggest achievements insignificant & irrelevant in the blink of an eye & in those moments when we are at its mercy there's no greater reminder than our ultimate helplessness, our need for a healthy dollop of luck & the full awareness that we are not born with gill's. What you mentioned definitely sounds like they provide a safer & more comfortable environment, as long as the system remains engaged or online Im sure its excellent but all of our modern assists seem to shut down, if even temporarily, right at the moment they would be most appreciated & again, they are all aids or improvements for seaborne travel & no magic bullet. We've just been reminded how even a well appointed super-yacht is just as able to be an effective deathtrap, be it because of oversight or casual attitudes, rich or poor, ocean liner or dinghy, the ocean can kill us all equally if we dont respect the dangers or there is enough small errors for the sea to exploit & sometimes its just wrong place, at the wrong time & bad luck.

    It’s not that simple, woman !
    Waves don’t just simply bonk into the boat, but they hit it with extreme force. And they hit repeatedly and not just in some specific direction; but in very many directions at the same time. Will the boat have sufficient time to readjust itself (no matter what position it can possibly take right then), not to mention the case where the height of the waves far exceed the height of the boat !
    Say a monster wave hits the boat from above, then sinks half of its body ; then another one hits at the side so that the boat overturns, then you think it can balance itself in … the water? ! "Lab space" cannot fully represent reality, woman !
    Tragic occurrences, very likely, could not be prevented in a raging stormy sea with monster waves.
