@@theranger2185 They probably were better men who made bad choices, which is why I won’t judge. But they also probably killed and sexually assaulted either one of our ancestors so I can’t wish peace in rest. Every race has experienced this historically.
My dad worked on a ship of over 20 years and he loved it. But he always said when them storms hit and them wave get really high u cant help but admire how beautiful it is even tho u are terrified.
When you are in you're bunk, and you feel the ship going up..up..up ,you know the going down you will meet another wave and then it hits and the ship comes to an almost dead stop, and it starts all over again, all day and all night. been there.
We designed stuff that landed on the moon and yet in my opinion this is far more terrifying. Out in space you know where you are and have nothing that can come and break your ship open other than mechanical failure. On the ocean you get hit by a big storm no one knows where you are and those waves smash the ship apart and you get sunk and no one ever finds you.
It's actually quite easy to make a ship withstand this and anything bigger if desired. The challenge would be to make it so, while at acceptable cost and weight. Engineering is always a compromise between 3 factors of some kind particular to domain. Performance (speed/weight/power/capability/etc..) Quality (durability/survivability/aesthetics/etc..) Cost (price/time). A ship can be made practically indestructible but would be super costly, sacrifice space and weight/payload, less maneuverable and ill suited to its mission. So designers build in just enough strength as needed to deal with expected maximum seas states. Any engineering thing will be a balance of these 3 and success is measure by how well requirements are met with least amount of sacrifice of the other factors. If you can neglect one of the 3 factors, engineering becomes much easier, but that is rare in the real world, where funding is finite. Manhattan Project, Apollo program or James Webb telescope may be example exceptions.
@@abdulbasit-cn9ek pretty sure all the boats back then didn't capsize on every wave 🤦🏻♂️ like, you realise they had quite huge wooden sail ships too? Some around as big as this modern one probably.

I get it. Funny. Still, a ship this size wouldn’t have a crew of 2000. Closer to 400. And the real comedy happens on the mess deck where the crew tries to eat while the trays and drinks fly. Wasn’t that funny at the time.

My grandfather was in the chilean navy for 30 years. I remember him telling us how much he hated going to Punta Arenas and areas near Antarctica. Very turbulent waters that made everyone on board nauseous. First time I see a video like this. It gives me a better idea of what he had to go through.
Thanks god I've been blessed with zero sensitivity to ships' movements. I've been on a ship on a Douglas scale strength 7/8 storm and felt absolutely nothing other than being a bit scared. In fact, I stuff my face no problem on board... Got plenty of other issues but having motion sickness on a ship ain't one.
When I was in the Navy we were coming back off westpac and got into a serious storm more than once. Our ship at that time was classified as a destroyer escort. Small ship with approximately 250 sailors. During one storm we probably spent 20% of the time under water. The ship would climb one wave and drop into the trough where the next wave would completely submerge the ship except for the antennas and possibly the stacks. I know because a friend and I were on the O-1 and a half deck where there was a 4 foot high bulkhead where we would watch the waves and when the ship was going under we would duck behind the bulkhead and watch from there as the wave went over the ship. Because the wave was moving one way and the ship the other it created kind of a bubble where we were safe from being washed overboard. Stupid, yes but oh so worth it. Very cool to experience.
Only typhoon I was in was onboard USS Enterprise (CV-65). Now THAT is the size ship you wanna be on in weather and seas like this -- with the elevator doors closed, of course.
Could you imagine how helpless you are as a person overboard in the ocean?!?! It's shocking the magnitude compared to the warship. Ocean is ridiculously strong 💪🏻
I spent 12 years working those waters. Weather can get even worse than that and not let up for days. Time it right and you can get up a stairwell in one step like there is no gravity.
Fantastic...sort of how I feel after a few too many beers 🍻😂 Seriously though, you are right. To be honest I've seen as bad if not worse than this off the Atlantic coast of Ireland. I'm sure you've seen an awful lot worse than that wave!!
@David Hogg aka crisis actor or scream, in a scary Situation my wife starts screaming and that's what scares the shit out of me is her not the scary situation
Sorry, you are wrong. It's top flight cool. To a real saltwater sailor, that's when you feel completely alive. That was a nice wave, but not a monster. I got knocked down on the lookout bridge once. Did lots of damage. Lost a boat with it's davits, port screwguard was ripped off, and our aftermast was just plain gone. Our funnels were bent five degrees to port. Got 3 months of yard and drydock time to get her back to sea again. USS Wilkinson, DL5. Not sure of the year.
Not even two hundred,they were. Sealers and Whalers around 150years ago in sailing ships,often crewed by escaped convicts and brigands,tough men then,as Churchill said,Rum,Sodomy and the Lash!
"So the farther you go in tgat the direction, the warmer it gets?" . "For a while. Then it starts getting colder again." . "Why?" . "I have no idea. I don't think anybody does." . "Well what happens if you just keep going in that same direction?" . "You die." . "What? Why?" . "I have no idea. I don't think anybody knows." . "...Shit, man." . "Yeah, really."
I was on an US Army Troop Ship returning to the States from Germany in 1965. For several days the waves were going completely over the ship and the screws(propellers) were coming completely out of the water. The trip normally took 8 days, but because of the rough seas it took us 10 days.
Watched this in VR and can't express how real it felt. Huge respect to all the people who worked on building the ship and those who put their lives on the ship.
That wave actually moved/bent the barrel of the turret up. I assume turrets on ships are designed to be hit by waves and can move a bit so that it doesn't bend or snap the barrel off. If not, R.I.P. turret, your barrel is now bent :)
Man the amount that front gun got turned up when it was probably held in place by pretty strong mechanical parts made to handle to force of it firing just shows how truly powerful that wave was.
Bro that’s why you have to smuggle on some Xanax so when shit heads south you can go out with a smile on your face and absolutely no worries hahahahaha
It’s so amazing to know this is our home, this is our planet… the place where we live and die. Nature is something scary and beautiful at the same time.
The more you travel, the more you see that there are so many wonderful things in the world. It can be difficult to settle for something great when you can see that there could always be something better just round the next corner. Travel can sometimes simply be about a quest for perfection. This quest for perfection that we are looking for,we found just now in your video so the only that we have to say on you: Huge thank you and keep going!!!!!!!
Been there, done that riding out typhoons Fran and Pamela at sea in 1976 aboard USN destroyer. Huge waves, horizontal rain, waterspouts (spouts in three directions at once in one case)and 45 degree rolls from vertical; quite memorable.
It was a Royal New Zealand Navy Ship HMNZS Otago P148 searching for toothfish poachers in the Southern ocean at the insistence of the Green Party of NZ who was in a coalition Government at the time. I was also in the RNZN in the 80's and 90's, We encountered quite a few storms at Sea, Worst was probably Cyclone Bola in 1988, Were were crossing the Tasman from Australia back to New Zealand on a Leander Class Frigate, We were tossed about like a cork, and suffered some pretty good damage, NZ suffered some pretty good damage as well and 3 people lost their lives. I have also operated in the Southern Ocean south of the Campbell Islands in some similar weather to this, Cyclone Bola was way worse than this, Crew members still talk about it.
It's even scarier thinking about the people who did this before the industrial revolution swept through. I very much recommend the book Jack Tar which covers life in the Royal Navy during the mid 18th and early 19th century. It's fascinating, poignant, humourous, grim but also rage-inducing.
I was on one ship that we after a storm we had to go out and tie down the gun mount so it wouldn't flop around. After a day and a half of pounding, the gears that raise and lower the gun, ripped apart.
Imagine sleeping in a berthing upfront when the front half of the ship was literally was going under the water all night, hoping that it didn't just sink.
When the water is that rough you don’t really sleep. You put the hurricane strap up so you don’t roll out and kinda slide back and forth. These ships are made for it though.
@@icounted9528 I lived on an aircraft carrier for a while. So, as you can imagine it didn't move around that much. But, on a smaller ship it would probably be pretty insane at the far-forward and aft ends.
@@doctoronishispsychosislab1474 oh my respects to your dad!

The vessel is HMNZS Otago - P148, one of the Royal New Zealand Navy’s Offshore Patrol Vessels. She was in a storm in the Southern Ocean, early 2019...I think...20m swells and 80kph winds.
@@youtert NZ and Australia protects the seas south of the country all the way to Antarctica. Lots of whales there so there will be lots of poachers. Criminal cartels also tried to avoid the popular shipping lanes when they are smuggling drugs and guns between countries. Australia in the past have caught ships smuggling tonnes of drugs and thousands of guns from South America going to terrorist cells via the Antarctic Ocean so it is not an idle threat.
I used to work at the alaska marine highway state ferry and looking at this video gives me goosebumps. Going through the rough seas was no joke. We worked 2 weeks at a time and it was the most fun, hardworking, slash stressful time of my life. One thing I DO NOT miss whatsoever was those crazy waves we would sail through whenver we were out in the open seas. There was one shift where we voyaged almost like this for a DAY and I kid you not I could not work for the life of me.... thankfully I worked the night shift so my terror during the day really only lasted for 3 hours (pain...) and then I slept the rest of it off after my shift😂 most rewarding job of my life couldn’t be more grateful for it plus the pay was amazing, miss the extra money though😅
That’s where we saw serious storms when I was in the Marine Corps and assigned to the Fleet. Yeah it’s pretty wild seas down there. I returned to the Antarctic later in the 1980’s but it was on a private ship and as a civilian. I’m planning a third trip next year to see the islands surrounding the main continent. Truly one beautiful place.
Man, the Polynesians sailed thousands of miles in a home made sailboat. It's not rocket science. They even had pets on board. It puts this thing to shame.
I grew up on tankers during my mid to late teens, I remember a hurricane off the coast of Africa, I was very sick and terrified beyond reckoning. I thought I was gonna die for every moment of those two days. Not my idea of a fun summer vacation. My uncle was not only the Captain, but the owner as well and his son was the first mate, both were registered and licensed harbor pilots. I was there learning the family business as it were. Needless to say because of that storm, I never finished my apprenticeship, that was it for me, I never went back .
Having recently discovered letters written by my great, great Grandfather and his wife, my great great Grandmother to family back home, detailing the 8 month journey from Germany to Australia in the early 1800’s, in a tiny wooden boat.. the huge storms they encountered, the water filling cabins to the top bunks, the birth of their daughter at sea, numerous broken masts..I can only admire the resilience of the people who undertook the treacherous journey to this far off, unknown land. They were the last immigrants to arrive in my family tree. People must have been made of sterner stuff back then.
Went through many of these storms in the Navy, working on the bridge of a carrier. Waves like this would wash down the flight deck. Secret to survival was to keep the bow into the waves the entire time. Made for a wild ride even on a carrier. The early carriers had open bows. After one such carrier lost a portion of its forward flight deck in just this type of storm, conversions were completed to several other Essex class carriers closing in the bow. All subsequent carriers were built with closed bows. The conversion was dubbed a Hurricane bow for good reason.
The upper deck is always out of bounds in that type of weather. The problem is trying to walk along a passageway when the deck falls away from your feet!
I have read this book over and over and still cannot believe how Sir Ernest Shackleton's team survived 1000 miles of this with a small 7 meter boat...in 1916...
@@jamesmacphee5885 Maybe not as big as this.But if you read the book it also describes some crazy big waves they also encountered during their 2 week trip in order to reach South Georgia. Even surviving the world's most unpredictable ocean back then was something truly remarkable...
Captain Cook went down there on his first voyage to New Zealand. Imagine being in those seas in his wooden sailing ship which was a converted coastal collier previously used for transporting coal around the UK coast.

Sorry, you are wrong. It's top flight cool. To a real saltwater sailor, that's when you feel completely alive. That was a nice wave, but not a monster. I got knocked down on the lookout bridge once. Did lots of damage. Lost a boat with it's davits, port screwguard was ripped off, and our aftermast was just plain gone. Our funnels were bent five degrees to port. Got 3 months of yard and drydock time to get her back to sea again. USS Wilkinson, DL5. Not sure of the year.

I was on an US Army Troop Ship returning to the States from Germany in 1965. For several days the waves were going completely over the ship and the screws(propellers) were coming completely out of the water. The trip normally took 8 days, but because of the rough seas it took us 10 days.

@@isaacmontechristo252 yeah no doubt!
That wave actually moved/bent the barrel of the turret up.
I assume turrets on ships are designed to be hit by waves and can move a bit so that it doesn't bend or snap the barrel off. If not, R.I.P. turret, your barrel is now bent :)

I mean, I was pretty scared and I wasn't even fucking there lol
Man the amount that front gun got turned up when it was probably held in place by pretty strong mechanical parts made to handle to force of it firing just shows how truly powerful that wave was.
Its desinged to be abke to move like that in these situations
This is why I prefer to stay on land. Would get a panic attack on that ship after seeing that wave >.

It was a Royal New Zealand Navy Ship HMNZS Otago P148 searching for toothfish poachers in the Southern ocean at the insistence of the Green Party of NZ who was in a coalition Government at the time.
I was also in the RNZN in the 80's and 90's, We encountered quite a few storms at Sea, Worst was probably Cyclone Bola in 1988, Were were crossing the Tasman from Australia back to New Zealand on a Leander Class Frigate, We were tossed about like a cork, and suffered some pretty good damage, NZ suffered some pretty good damage as well and 3 people lost their lives.
I have also operated in the Southern Ocean south of the Campbell Islands in some similar weather to this, Cyclone Bola was way worse than this, Crew members still talk about it.
The amount of pressure that boat structure would have experienced by that wave is crazy if you think about it.
@Newts revenge, AGAIN! So long as the bolt and the firing pin are ok! And the barrel isn't too bent...
If I recall correctly, the force rises with the 4th power of the wave height. So, that must have been an impressively strong impact.
Its stress buddy not pressure😅
It's even scarier thinking about the people who did this before the industrial revolution swept through. I very much recommend the book Jack Tar which covers life in the Royal Navy during the mid 18th and early 19th century. It's fascinating, poignant, humourous, grim but also rage-inducing.

This is one of the best rogue wave videos I've ever seen! Thank you for sharing it!
That wave was powerful enough to knock the turret up on that gun. That’s some heavy shit man.
I saw that too. I wonder if there was a break it forced through or if it was just left to hit its mechanical limits.
Nah man they were tryna shoot the wave to reduce drag
@@mushrooka lol
I was on one ship that we after a storm we had to go out and tie down the gun mount so it wouldn't flop around. After a day and a half of pounding, the gears that raise and lower the gun, ripped apart.
@@dartagnin that’s no joke
Imagine sleeping in a berthing upfront when the front half of the ship was literally was going under the water all night, hoping that it didn't just sink.
When the water is that rough you don’t really sleep. You put the hurricane strap up so you don’t roll out and kinda slide back and forth. These ships are made for it though.
@@icounted9528 I lived on an aircraft carrier for a while. So, as you can imagine it didn't move around that much. But, on a smaller ship it would probably be pretty insane at the far-forward and aft ends.
You take your uniforms and clothing out of your coffin locker and put them under your mattress on the outside edge and jump in. Sleep like a baby.
Forward berthing, 110’. You don’t sleep.

@@youtert they were patrolling for poachers
@@youtert NZ and Australia protects the seas south of the country all the way to Antarctica. Lots of whales there so there will be lots of poachers. Criminal cartels also tried to avoid the popular shipping lanes when they are smuggling drugs and guns between countries. Australia in the past have caught ships smuggling tonnes of drugs and thousands of guns from South America going to terrorist cells via the Antarctic Ocean so it is not an idle threat.
I don't think it's Otago -- the bow looks different and Otago doesn't have a gun in front.

I used to work at the alaska marine highway state ferry and looking at this video gives me goosebumps. Going through the rough seas was no joke. We worked 2 weeks at a time and it was the most fun, hardworking, slash stressful time of my life. One thing I DO NOT miss whatsoever was those crazy waves we would sail through whenver we were out in the open seas. There was one shift where we voyaged almost like this for a DAY and I kid you not I could not work for the life of me.... thankfully I worked the night shift so my terror during the day really only lasted for 3 hours (pain...) and then I slept the rest of it off after my shift😂 most rewarding job of my life couldn’t be more grateful for it plus the pay was amazing, miss the extra money though😅
That’s where we saw serious storms when I was in the Marine Corps and assigned to the Fleet. Yeah it’s pretty wild seas down there. I returned to the Antarctic later in the 1980’s but it was on a private ship and as a civilian. I’m planning a third trip next year to see the islands surrounding the main continent. Truly one beautiful place.
That’s always the case. Do the rounds when in uniform, but only get the most out of it when you’re a civvy and have to pay for it yourself. Good times

Having recently discovered letters written by my great, great Grandfather and his wife, my great great Grandmother to family back home, detailing the 8 month journey from Germany to Australia in the early 1800’s, in a tiny wooden boat.. the huge storms they encountered, the water filling cabins to the top bunks, the birth of their daughter at sea, numerous broken masts..I can only admire the resilience of the people who undertook the treacherous journey to this far off, unknown land. They were the last immigrants to arrive in my family tree. People must have been made of sterner stuff back then.
Went through many of these storms in the Navy, working on the bridge of a carrier. Waves like this would wash down the flight deck. Secret to survival was to keep the bow into the waves the entire time. Made for a wild ride even on a carrier.
The early carriers had open bows. After one such carrier lost a portion of its forward flight deck in just this type of storm, conversions were completed to several other Essex class carriers closing in the bow. All subsequent carriers were built with closed bows. The conversion was dubbed a Hurricane bow for good reason.
Wow
0:32 - All hands on deck alarm and notify Flex Seal guy

The upper deck is always out of bounds in that type of weather. The problem is trying to walk along a passageway when the deck falls away from your feet!

Sounds like the red alert klaxon on the Enterprise lol
Before the first wave, the barrel of that gun WAS parallel to the deck. After the wave hit, it was at a 45° or so, angle.
