Was in the Navy, we sailed though a storm and hit the eye of the storm at the same moment the sun went down, tuning all the clouds brown/red and the lightning yellow, It was the most surreal thing I have ever seen. I had a 360 degrees view red skies and yellow lightning strikes, I still think about from time to time.
Had an old navy man tell me that theres no such thing as dead people on the bottom of the ocean. People caught in shipwrecks are still around some way or another.
Not entirely true. People usually think of sharks going for the bodies but sea scavengers and shrimp especially would reduce the body to bleached bones.
@@villainessy This remember me of a story my dad told me about one of his customers who was in the navy; one time when this customer was in a ship and some of his crewmates fished a body from the sea, and thought the person was far beyond dead, the body was having convulsions, when they opened the belly there was a bunch of crabs inside the dead man's stomach, and the other crewmates where all excited about having crab for dinner, they couldn't care less that these crabs were inside a human corpse and had human meat in their stomachs (or whatever crabs have for a digestive system), honestly, I think the sailors reaction was creepier that the crabs eating the body Edit: typo =P

The bloop or whatever it was called scares the living shit out of me. I’m convinced it was some kinda of ridiculously massive ocean-dweller that came up to the surface for a bit. Like for all we know there could be a fish the size of New York in the ocean and we just don’t know.
more than fear, you should respect the sea, it's a completely alien environment to us and we are blessed to have just the amount of freedom we have on it, fish can't just simply go out to land for a couple of minutes and consider themselves "safe", but we can swim and travel over the seas. The problem starts when people starts pushing the limits of what we can do on it, heck, one morning I saw a dead drunk man drowned after falling face first into a poodle of water and not being able to lift himself up. As long as you have a respectful relationship with the sea and act around it in a rational way, you're ok 99% of the time.
Me too. I googled every which way (spelled out, shortened, added words such as nautical, sailor, etc). All it gave me was twilight times and definitions!
Working for the Canadian Coast Guard, went up to the Arctic. One night when I went outside to do midnight soundings, the sky was overcast. There was no moon, no stars. The world ended where the light of the ship stopped. Another night there were cloud breaks, but only the moon could get through them. When it did, it illuminated the ocean...it was so black that it was like liquid obsidian. Another night with no moon or stars I could see orange light on the horizon. It was a bit rough, so that orange light would move up and down on the horizon, and almost looked like an eye glaring at me. Went inside after I was finished, got the engineer to turn on the nav screen to see what it was...turns out it was another CCG vessel. But until I knew that, it was freaky. I’m telling you, my greatest fear is to be somehow swept overboard at night into that obsidian abyss...it would be so easy for you to be lost, or be attacked by a shark, and nobody would know something was up until they noticed you were missing.
That is scary to think about. If you fall off you may not be found. Do soldires on deck at night have flashlights or flares on them to be aee if fallen overboard?
@@kyle18934 when on the flight deck, sailors must _always_ wear a safety jacket that has a floatation device, strobe-light, and a whistle on it. A person could survive a really long time while waiting to be rescued... if they wanted to. That’s the thing. He didn’t want to survive. He didn’t have a safety jacket on and this incident occurred in the dead of night in the middle of the ocean. Nobody knows exactly when he went overboard because he wasn’t missed until the night check/day check muster. That’s when everybody is counted present and accounted for. The sun is up by then. He had been gone for possibly 11 hours by then.
I served in the Navy and on my first deployment to south and central America. One night we spotted two boats filled with people trying to reach the US. Anyway it was in the middle of summer and the people were starving and had little to no water. We rescued them but one of the women was pregnant, her and her unborn baby died from a heat stroke.

Former sailor here, the scariest thing I've experienced at sea is ghost ships. The scariest one was a battleship that was huge, 4 turrets and each turned had 2 guns in them. I also heard low powered aircraft during that time but never saw them. Next thing I saw was a ship that looked similar to HMS Hood. All of a sudden the sky turned orange when the ship that resembled the Hood blew apart and split in half, the sound of twisting steel is a sound I will never forget. If anyone knows more about it please tell me.
I was out fishing one night with no moon and where i was setting my drift i could hear whales breaching everywhere around me in the darkness. Was the scariest night praying one wouldnt capsize my boat.......longest night ever!
@@SundaysChild1966 I saw a comment she made about how she would drowned humans occasionally, and other Nissies would eat them if they couldn't find any fish.
I was on an aircraft carrier standing fire watch at like 2am in the south China sea and we saw bright blue and green lights under the surface that we never confirmed what they were and didn't report.
A scary one is when your in a deep lake or ocean and you capsize a sail boat, and when you look down into the water below you it looks like a giant shark fin or something below you...
Once, when there were a bunch of fires on the west coast, we woke up at the lake one morning, and decided to go back because of the smoke. Well, you couldn’t even see half a mile in any direction, so I had to rely on my navigation equipment to get us back, which was scary, because almost no one turns on their navigation lights. When we got to where the ferry is, we couldn’t even see it, eventually it came out of the smoke, and we made it back. This was on Lake Roosevelt.
I went on an overnight fishing trip tour in California, there was def a lot of tuna. But sleeping on a boat like that is amazing. The best waterbed ever
As a child in the 1950's, East Coast, Yorkshire UK - Grandparents small holding / hobby farm. Spent many a night watching fast-moving mainly red, but occasionally yellow and white lights in the sky out over the North Sea. Not moving in a straight line, rather zig-zagging all over the sky. Grandfather said they were aircraft but in retrospect I don't really think so!
First one that comes to mind is looking at a cruse ships at sea not more than a mile away at night thinking. "We are a aircraft carrier and they still can't see us"
My family toured a WWII submarine when I was a girl (late 1960s or early 1970s). There was a sign warning us to watch our heads as we were going down. I've always been small (5'½" or 153.6 cm at my tallest), so I was able to go down without having to duck. Poor sailors!
i’m claustrophobic so that sounds horrible... imagine being stuck down there during a world war i’m interested, how large were the submarines? how many people were they designed to house?

That deja-vu one? I have experienced that at home. But, it was a few days where on and off I would feel as if it had all happened before. The sensation would be so strong I would feel dizzy and sick. It was a completely surreal experience that's happened to me twice in my life
22:43 You flag down a *MILITARY VESSEL* because you want some cigarettes?! Dude's lucky they didn't commandeer his boat and throw him in the brig! That's just ignorant!
Lmao honestly was probably the most interesting thing to happen. People generally stay away from military ships (which is good), but occasionally you'll get weird shit like this happen and it makes for a great story and a great way to break up the monotony of long transits.
Mine was when we were out at sea going about or buisness as usual and there was strong breeze and the sea was bit choppy, then the wind was gone and the water flat, then everything went to fuck then in a middle of a storm. But it still kinda scares me to this day how everything changed in the blink of an eye
There are ghost ships that visit the coast of Japan quite often. Ghost ships have been reported for a long time. I've never seen a ghost, but when my dad told me of his encounter, he had no reason to lie. He was at an antique store ( a favorite activity of his (and mine)) and was perusing the main floor as normal. Once he was done on the first floor, he went to the basement and when he got off the last stair step, he saw a man. A translucent man. My dad said between the look the man was giving him and the sinking feeling that he was not welcome down there, he quickly went back up the stairs, checked out, and has never stepped foot in that particular antique store ever since. Which really means something. My dad covers all his bases and frequents many antique stores. You never know when something new will be in a booth, and you never know if you'll find it in time before it's gone. For my dad to let the possible treasures pass him by in that store tells me all I need to know. In fact, it was life changing in a way, he started seeking answers for what he saw, and became interested in the paranormal for a time. No matter what you believe, there is still energy after death. These things are real, and I would be glad to never encounter them in my life. It's interesting, but I'd rather not seek it out. I'll read and hear stories of first-hand accounts, but I won't go to a notoriously haunted place to see for myself. I have no reason to believe that thousands of years of stories, legends, and true studies have no basis.
Was sailing from Lahaina with a few marine biologists onboard hoping to observe some humpback whales. One whale surfaced less than 3 feet from the boat and sprayed us through its blowhole. Aside from being dangerous (as they can spray you with a lot of parasites) it smelled like dirty gym socks and rotten fish.
2:10 This reminds me of the time a friend and I went to Ocean City, MD very early in order to see the sunrise on a moonless night. The lights from the parking lot barely illuminate the waves at that point and as far as the eye can see, it's just a terrifying blackness. Worst of all, at Ocean City there is this constant "whooooop" sound that I guess is used to alert boats or what not that sounds so forlorn in that dark emptiness.
Summer of 2008 I helped a few friends sail a boat from Argentina up to California, and I've got a few from that trip. We generally stayed close to the shore most of the time. Up around Costa Rica we had a large (18-20 ft) great white follow the boat for about two hours. At first it was kinda creepy, but after a while we realized s/he wasn't really stalking us, we just happened to be heading in the same direction. It would swim along one side of the boat, for a while, then drop low and swim over to the other, really chill like. Then after about two hours we see this huge assed shark turn away and haul ass back the way we just came. 30 minutes later, we came across a pod of dolphins playing "volleyball" with the head of another shark. Flying fish. You mentally prepare for them, but it's still weird to see. The worst was just off the tip of Baja though. It was early in the morning, just before sunrise and we heard a bunch of gunshots off in the distance. About 2 minutes of automatic fire. Not long after we see seagulls hovering off in the distance, and as we sailed closer we saw the bodies. We counted 23 men, women and children. When we called it in, everyone we got on the radio basically told us to keep quiet about it. We were certain some boat full of cartel enforcers was going to show up and do the same to us, but it never did and we made it the rest of the way without any incidents. Still, the rest of the way we panicked any time we saw another boat.
Yes. Very. Indonesian waters are the worst. Coast of Somalia used to be real bad. But we got an international naval force there to deal with it years ago. Only took a few pirates firing RPG's at Guided Missile Destroyers before they decided to do something else.
Nowdays they don't go for the things a ship carrys anymore. Insted modern pirates take over the ship and sail it somewere hidden overpaint the whole thing and sell the ship. Ships are quite expensive you know. Also they kidnapp the crew for a lot of money. If they don't kill them that is.
It's not the robot voice that's the problem. Radio TTS does that too, and they're great. It's the fact that this one is a grating fancy old British accent or whatever that makes it annoying and unscary.
The laundry stabber reminded me of a movie I recently watched where these people go out to sea and this sea creature attaches itself to their boat and sends its little parasite babies into their water supply. So whoever takes a shower or drinks the water gets the little parasites inside of them and they control your brain and make you go nuts and kill your comrades and then eventually they explode out of your eyeballs!
1:35, no, man, what was happening was that the new area was loading in information...I honestly thought that the PS5 and Xbox Series X had no load times, let alone the highest end PC and iMac units...those filthy liars!
I have my own story about the water but I wasn't on the ocean I was just at the beach. When I was like 2 my bio dad took me to the beach and I came back so afraid of water that I cried when I took baths. My bio dad said he had no idea why that happened but my mom absolutely despises him and won't tell me why so I suspect that he was abusive to her or cheated so in my mind it isn't hard to believe that he might have tried to drown me or just played no attention to me a 2 yo at the beach. Plus my step-dad (The way better dad) was the one who explained this story to me and said "He said he didn't know what happened. *Mutters this sentence in a suspicious tone* He didn't admit to anything." I still have slight aquaphobia to this day, and I can't swim for jack-squat and I've almost Drowned 2 more times before but that's a story for another time and you all probably don't want to hear my other near-death stories
If you've ever been on a ship in the early morning or a bright night you can start seeing things in the sea, even if there are people all around you it feels eerily silent.
My contemporary world history teacher told us a story how he was stationed on a Frigate patrolling some country near Russia and an old Mig was spotted flying towards the ship, turning away and then coming back several times. His supervisor said hey... wanna see something cool? Watch this... *flips off the high powered radar and waits for the Mig to get really close then flips it back on, the Mig hauled ass away and never came back.
Lol, the bunk bandit one brought back memories, I lived with someone for a time that wouldn't let me go to sleep without giving me there arousing version of churning butter and I would wake up every morning to there impression of riding a 1970's Hippity Hop.
Steam ship, the fire aisle used to be lit by maybe half a dozen standard bulbs so pretty dim. Used to see people walking by the ship side, would walk after the shadow to see who was in the boiler room, no one was ever there. It was a 2 man boiler room so the fireman always stayed in the aisle while I looked for the other person.
Oh yeah the deja vu. Forgot about that. Yes, it's deeply upsetting. You're on a repeating schedule for months, doing the exact same things in the exact same places with the exact same people doing the exact same things around you, and the days do feel like they are repeating. If it wasn't for Sunday morale events it would probably drive people mad.
TPOD? I used to sneak out of deck after lights out at night to look up at the milky way. Once your eyes adjust it is quite spectacular. I never saw total darkness. Even the ocean glows on an overcast night if you let your eyes adjust. I guess the people who work on the bridge and other semi-lighted areas see the "total darkness"
Out to sea in a sea of barf! Never go out in heavy wind, storm , white caps on a fishing " cattle boat" or like the cat discribed.. You will barf up that Christmas dinner from 2 years ago along with your toe nails....non stop as long as your rolling with the waves.. ( been there done that)!
Saw a lot of amazing things. A becalmed ocean like a perfect sheet of glass from horizon to horizon. Crystal clear waters where the bottom can be clearly seen a hundred feet below. Massive schools of flying fish skimming the surface of low swells for miles all around. Giant octopus chasing tuna near the surface - eye as big as a soccer ball. Never saw anything I would call creepy. Horrifying is another story.
Once some of my friends and I were fishing and they were all getting pissed at me for not going back bc we weren’t catching anything, so I tell them “you want to go back to shore, you can swim your ass back to shore.” So they put on their life jackets (we were like 50 feet from shore.) when they jumped out, I said to look down, and they did, and saw a big trench under them. After they got to shore, they had to walk across a bunch of sharp rocks, so as soon as they made it to shore, I pulled up the anchor and hauled ass back to shore. My friends were pretty pissed off at me for that.
@@kyle18934 the fish weren’t biting that day, and I went back after they swam back as kind of a joke, so they had to walk all the way back to camp and I just took the boat
I worked on a freighter in the great Lakes and a week ago we were on lake superior and I went out on the deck and saw a ship and I went to the captain and said hey is there supposed to be any freighter passing us he said no so I went out on the deck with binoculars and I looked at the name and I went cold the name said Edmund Fitzgerald and so I looked in the bridge and there were people in there but they were skeletons and a crewmember heard me scream and I said it's the fitz and he went pale and said he saw it to

I regularly browse the British Newspaper Archive & there's a lot of odd stories of lights seen at sea. For example in the 1800s a revolving light was seen at Whitburn & mistaken for a lighthouse (it was blamed for several wrecks). On other occasions lifeboats were launched in response to ships in distress or flares, but nothing was found.
That might have been an eel with a problem. I don't remember what it's called, but I think it is a genetic defect in some eels where they are born sterile, but never stop growing. They can get huge. Some people say that is what the Loch Ness monster is.

23:53. I wasn't at sea, but I've seen something just like that. Thing moved may faster and and turned more sharply than any officially recognised aircraft would be capable of, let alone without instantly killing the occupants. It was silent too, and vent off into space in a split second.

Navy sailor here and I've seen multiple ufos
As a child in the 1950's, East Coast, Yorkshire UK - Grandparents small holding / hobby farm. Spent many a night watching fast-moving mainly red, but occasionally yellow and white lights in the sky out over the North Sea. Not moving in a straight line, rather zig-zagging all over the sky. Grandfather said they were aircraft but in retrospect I don't really think so!
First one that comes to mind is looking at a cruse ships at sea not more than a mile away at night thinking. "We are a aircraft carrier and they still can't see us"
My family toured a WWII submarine when I was a girl (late 1960s or early 1970s). There was a sign warning us to watch our heads as we were going down. I've always been small (5'½" or 153.6 cm at my tallest), so I was able to go down without having to duck. Poor sailors!
i’m claustrophobic so that sounds horrible... imagine being stuck down there during a world war
i’m interested, how large were the submarines? how many people were they designed to house?
im very happy with a video like this i like boats a lot im a son of a kapitan that has his own boat for transporting fluid on the Rine in Germany i had never an experince like this
You have to respect the sea!!!

That deja-vu one? I have experienced that at home. But, it was a few days where on and off I would feel as if it had all happened before.
The sensation would be so strong I would feel dizzy and sick. It was a completely surreal experience that's happened to me twice in my life
22:43 You flag down a *MILITARY VESSEL* because you want some cigarettes?! Dude's lucky they didn't commandeer his boat and throw him in the brig! That's just ignorant!
Lmao honestly was probably the most interesting thing to happen. People generally stay away from military ships (which is good), but occasionally you'll get weird shit like this happen and it makes for a great story and a great way to break up the monotony of long transits.
well it wasn't like he was faking an emergency.
Mine was when we were out at sea going about or buisness as usual and there was strong breeze and the sea was bit choppy, then the wind was gone and the water flat, then everything went to fuck then in a middle of a storm.
But it still kinda scares me to this day how everything changed in the blink of an eye
1:41 That red light was probably a submarine.
Very absorbing. Visual descriptions eerie & beautiful.
There are ghost ships that visit the coast of Japan quite often. Ghost ships have been reported for a long time. I've never seen a ghost, but when my dad told me of his encounter, he had no reason to lie.
He was at an antique store ( a favorite activity of his (and mine)) and was perusing the main floor as normal. Once he was done on the first floor, he went to the basement and when he got off the last stair step, he saw a man. A translucent man. My dad said between the look the man was giving him and the sinking feeling that he was not welcome down there, he quickly went back up the stairs, checked out, and has never stepped foot in that particular antique store ever since.
Which really means something. My dad covers all his bases and frequents many antique stores. You never know when something new will be in a booth, and you never know if you'll find it in time before it's gone. For my dad to let the possible treasures pass him by in that store tells me all I need to know. In fact, it was life changing in a way, he started seeking answers for what he saw, and became interested in the paranormal for a time.
No matter what you believe, there is still energy after death. These things are real, and I would be glad to never encounter them in my life.
It's interesting, but I'd rather not seek it out. I'll read and hear stories of first-hand accounts, but I won't go to a notoriously haunted place to see for myself.
I have no reason to believe that thousands of years of stories, legends, and true studies have no basis.

It's the animus

Was sailing from Lahaina with a few marine biologists onboard hoping to observe some humpback whales.
One whale surfaced less than 3 feet from the boat and sprayed us through its blowhole.
Aside from being dangerous (as they can spray you with a lot of parasites) it smelled like dirty gym socks and rotten fish.

This reminds me of the time a friend and I went to Ocean City, MD very early in order to see the sunrise on a moonless night. The lights from the parking lot barely illuminate the waves at that point and as far as the eye can see, it's just a terrifying blackness. Worst of all, at Ocean City there is this constant "whooooop" sound that I guess is used to alert boats or what not that sounds so forlorn in that dark emptiness.
Summer of 2008 I helped a few friends sail a boat from Argentina up to California, and I've got a few from that trip. We generally stayed close to the shore most of the time.
Up around Costa Rica we had a large (18-20 ft) great white follow the boat for about two hours. At first it was kinda creepy, but after a while we realized s/he wasn't really stalking us, we just happened to be heading in the same direction. It would swim along one side of the boat, for a while, then drop low and swim over to the other, really chill like.
Then after about two hours we see this huge assed shark turn away and haul ass back the way we just came. 30 minutes later, we came across a pod of dolphins playing "volleyball" with the head of another shark.
Flying fish. You mentally prepare for them, but it's still weird to see.
The worst was just off the tip of Baja though. It was early in the morning, just before sunrise and we heard a bunch of gunshots off in the distance. About 2 minutes of automatic fire. Not long after we see seagulls hovering off in the distance, and as we sailed closer we saw the bodies. We counted 23 men, women and children. When we called it in, everyone we got on the radio basically told us to keep quiet about it. We were certain some boat full of cartel enforcers was going to show up and do the same to us, but it never did and we made it the rest of the way without any incidents. Still, the rest of the way we panicked any time we saw another boat.
I always say stranger things have happened at sea- I guess I’m right most of the time 😂
I always like to read these story's.
it’s so interesting finding out about other peoples lives!
Wait, so sea pirates are still a thing?!
Yes. Very. Indonesian waters are the worst. Coast of Somalia used to be real bad. But we got an international naval force there to deal with it years ago. Only took a few pirates firing RPG's at Guided Missile Destroyers before they decided to do something else.
@@allthevideogames212 I wouldn't really expect swords and sailboats. Makes sense that they would use assault rifles over flintlock pistols
@@allthevideogames212 I mean like, this is 2020 not 1820
Nowdays they don't go for the things a ship carrys anymore.
Insted modern pirates take over the ship and sail it somewere hidden overpaint the whole thing and sell the ship. Ships are quite expensive you know.
Also they kidnapp the crew for a lot of money. If they don't kill them that is.
But not as cool as it used to be
Should not have watched this while playing subnautica
These stories might have actually been creepy, if they weren't read by a robot...
the robot voice is what makes it better...
For these types of videos, i just turn the volume all the way down and read to myself. It helps, for me at least.
Yea, and the worst one ever. Absolutely terrible narration
It's not the robot voice that's the problem. Radio TTS does that too, and they're great. It's the fact that this one is a grating fancy old British accent or whatever that makes it annoying and unscary.
The laundry stabber reminded me of a movie I recently watched where these people go out to sea and this sea creature attaches itself to their boat and sends its little parasite babies into their water supply. So whoever takes a shower or drinks the water gets the little parasites inside of them and they control your brain and make you go nuts and kill your comrades and then eventually they explode out of your eyeballs!
Sounds hilarious any chance you remember the name of the film. Thanks and have a great week.
@@gtree812 It's called Sea Fever. Here's a link. It was actually pretty good.

1:35, no, man, what was happening was that the new area was loading in information...I honestly thought that the PS5 and Xbox Series X had no load times, let alone the highest end PC and iMac units...those filthy liars!
I believe in sea monsters and alot of things sailors saw. The ocean is so huge and we barely know anything about it.
I have my own story about the water but I wasn't on the ocean I was just at the beach. When I was like 2 my bio dad took me to the beach and I came back so afraid of water that I cried when I took baths. My bio dad said he had no idea why that happened but my mom absolutely despises him and won't tell me why so I suspect that he was abusive to her or cheated so in my mind it isn't hard to believe that he might have tried to drown me or just played no attention to me a 2 yo at the beach. Plus my step-dad (The way better dad) was the one who explained this story to me and said "He said he didn't know what happened. *Mutters this sentence in a suspicious tone* He didn't admit to anything." I still have slight aquaphobia to this day, and I can't swim for jack-squat and I've almost Drowned 2 more times before but that's a story for another time and you all probably don't want to hear my other near-death stories
If you've ever been on a ship in the early morning or a bright night you can start seeing things in the sea, even if there are people all around you it feels eerily silent.
My contemporary world history teacher told us a story how he was stationed on a Frigate patrolling some country near Russia and an old Mig was spotted flying towards the ship, turning away and then coming back several times. His supervisor said hey... wanna see something cool? Watch this... *flips off the high powered radar and waits for the Mig to get really close then flips it back on, the Mig hauled ass away and never came back.
the sea is absolutely terrifying
1:26 that’s just north new jersey
Lol, the bunk bandit one brought back memories, I lived with someone for a time that wouldn't let me go to sleep without giving me there arousing version of churning butter and I would wake up every morning to there impression of riding a 1970's Hippity Hop.
to be fair.. it makes sense. itd probably be weirder for pirates to use outdated hundreds of years old design ships than a speedboat.
RUclips: HEY HERES A VIDEO ABOUT SCARY OCEAN STORIES
me who is thalassophobic: interesting...
Steam ship, the fire aisle used to be lit by maybe half a dozen standard bulbs so pretty dim. Used to see people walking by the ship side, would walk after the shadow to see who was in the boiler room, no one was ever there. It was a 2 man boiler room so the fireman always stayed in the aisle while I looked for the other person.
0:45 is super scary because it was either something supernatural, or they could’ve saved what is now (probably) a dead man
Oh yeah the deja vu. Forgot about that. Yes, it's deeply upsetting. You're on a repeating schedule for months, doing the exact same things in the exact same places with the exact same people doing the exact same things around you, and the days do feel like they are repeating. If it wasn't for Sunday morale events it would probably drive people mad.
TPOD? I used to sneak out of deck after lights out at night to look up at the milky way. Once your eyes adjust it is quite spectacular. I never saw total darkness. Even the ocean glows on an overcast night if you let your eyes adjust. I guess the people who work on the bridge and other semi-lighted areas see the "total darkness"
Out to sea in a sea of barf! Never go out in heavy wind, storm , white caps on a fishing " cattle boat" or like the cat discribed.. You will barf up that Christmas dinner from 2 years ago along with your toe nails....non stop as long as your rolling with the waves.. ( been there done that)!
Don't leave me, Winslow!
me who has thalassophobia: aw hell yeah baby let's get it
I'm suprised there werent any sea monster sightings...
Maybe put more ads in the video? 1 every 1.5 mins is not enough.
creepy but absolutely beautiful apparently
Saw a lot of amazing things. A becalmed ocean like a perfect sheet of glass from horizon to horizon. Crystal clear waters where the bottom can be clearly seen a hundred feet below. Massive schools of flying fish skimming the surface of low swells for miles all around. Giant octopus chasing tuna near the surface - eye as big as a soccer ball. Never saw anything I would call creepy. Horrifying is another story.
21:57 ...is that a middle schoolers summary of the Old Man and the Sea? lol
We had a phantom jerker on the TR in 2015. He got caught and he got medical separated. Fucking creep.
Once some of my friends and I were fishing and they were all getting pissed at me for not going back bc we weren’t catching anything, so I tell them “you want to go back to shore, you can swim your ass back to shore.” So they put on their life jackets (we were like 50 feet from shore.) when they jumped out, I said to look down, and they did, and saw a big trench under them. After they got to shore, they had to walk across a bunch of sharp rocks, so as soon as they made it to shore, I pulled up the anchor and hauled ass back to shore. My friends were pretty pissed off at me for that.
But why didn't you go back before thwy jumped off lol.
Did you end up catching anything there? Or were the fish just not biting that day?
@@kyle18934 the fish weren’t biting that day, and I went back after they swam back as kind of a joke, so they had to walk all the way back to camp and I just took the boat

What’s scarier the laundry stabbed or the rack jack bandit?
I worked on a freighter in the great Lakes and a week ago we were on lake superior and I went out on the deck and saw a ship and I went to the captain and said hey is there supposed to be any freighter passing us he said no so I went out on the deck with binoculars and I looked at the name and I went cold the name said Edmund Fitzgerald and so I looked in the bridge and there were people in there but they were skeletons and a crewmember heard me scream and I said it's the fitz and he went pale and said he saw it to
"It's the fitz"

In the middle of the night being woken up by my boats radio whistling and making weird static noises. I was in the middle of the ocean with no one around
10:07 there's another story out there how they found an empty lifeboat floating on its own
I regularly browse the British Newspaper Archive & there's a lot of odd stories of lights seen at sea. For example in the 1800s a revolving light was seen at Whitburn & mistaken for a lighthouse (it was blamed for several wrecks). On other occasions lifeboats were launched in response to ships in distress or flares, but nothing was found.
they never caught me! uh, I mean the rack bandit.
Ohh i have one i saw a fish that is really long and its in the shore it was so creepy looking
That might have been an eel with a problem. I don't remember what it's called, but I think it is a genetic defect in some eels where they are born sterile, but never stop growing. They can get huge. Some people say that is what the Loch Ness monster is.
Drop the computer voice on videos, makes it hard to listen too

Not realy a sailor but i have a sailing boat that i ride with my family thought the bay of Kotor.One time, about 7 or 8 pm, there were this big wawes that were coming out of nowhere and it looked like a boat was next to us.So there is this last big wawe coming and four a split seccond im sure that i saw a sail of some 18. seuntry ship next to us.Still the scariest shit i've ever seen.

I worked on crayboats around Tasmania and heard/ saw some very strange things.
23:53. I wasn't at sea, but I've seen something just like that. Thing moved may faster and and turned more sharply than any officially recognised aircraft would be capable of, let alone without instantly killing the occupants. It was silent too, and vent off into space in a split second.
