@WilyWanderlust I know you were both so happy you made it there! I'm just so happy you made it home, after looking at all those swells, going as far as eyes can see! I once lived in SE Alaska for several years. It was an absolutely AMAZING experience, beyond imagination on every level! Have you ever been?
Wooden ships without engine and using just leather sails, no heating or air conditioning cabins, no LED lights at night, no GPS or communication devices. There fixed it for ya so you can appreciate how incredibly badasses the ancient sailors were. @@CocosBoss007
It's crazy to think that you'll end up drowning in this cold water if something goes wrong You'd be forgotten and your body will be gone for good and impossible to find
More than 800 shipwrecks in the Drake passage and the further South. You go in the passage, the more dangerous it becomes. This is where 3 oceans all come together. Different currents and outrageous weather
@@AlanMichaelJackson Drakes Passage averages about 11,500- feet in depth, over 15,000 feet in some areas. The North Sea averages 650 feet. The North Sea's depth is limited due to the continental shelf. Both bodies of water are extremely turbulent and rough due to free flowing currents, location, The Passage is in-between South America and Antarctica and of course wind. The Passage is no stranger to 50-foot waves and 100 M.P.H. wind gusts. Last count, I believe, there has been over 800-ships lost and 20,000 lives. Traversing either or is a tad bit nerve wracking to say the least.
@@AlanMichaelJackson it's just a hobby, my information is from military websites from around the world and sailors reports who ran civil ships regularly in both areas. Really amazing facts and sailors accounts are absolutely heart-stopping, funny and highlight some amazing work!
Your watching the drake passage..for what Shackleton went through lol his expedition failed drake sailed around the world and through this..his boat wasn't that little either
@@dodgyxd4772 that's the whole point, even though his expedition failed, they all survived thanks to Shackleton's crossing of the drake's passage in the James Caird, which is arguably the greatest small-boat journey ever completed and one of the greatest ever in general as well
The truth is they had to get a Maori native navigator to navigate for them , our native ancestors knew about this than any explorers , and trading to many countries,
It more dangerous closer to land , waves bouncing off land creates different frequency of waves ,length pitch and troffs and currents , , get the wrong wind direction end up being shipped wreck , not a sailor but it common sense , but I did became a captain of a tall ship when I was 16 years old back in 91 , , I just knew about physics THAT YEAR 😅 and I was only a anchor boy , I took MUTINY ,OVER THE CAPTAIN , FIRST EVER TEENAGER IN THE WORLD EVER DID IT , FIRST NATIVE MOARI , Waves was bigger than this , got everyone to saftey , 😊 LOVED IT WAVES SMASHING OVER THE SHIP , IT WAS ALONG 12 HOURS OFF IT , 😊
This is the only footage I've ever seen that looks more dangerous than the Bering Strait can be. Chilling.
It was kinda crazy but a trip of a lifetime.
It’s true. The all super blown out ocean as far the eye can see is truly terrifying

Seems very calm
How’s this dangerous
And the sailors that did this passage in wooden ships back in the day, man they were brave
Sick and tired of this line. The least original statement on RUclips.
@@CocosBoss007he's not wrong tho
@@lyricwannabe6836 nope, he is not wrong. Just boring to read it again. But not wrong.
most are dead it's brave but reckless

Giving some serious pirate vibes at the end lol
This is why the Panama canal was so important so ships wouldnt need to go through this passage of water
It also saved 5 months of travel time for ships
funny how panama is only recognized because of its canal😂
Yes and how many gross human rights atrocities did the American commit making the canal or should we not talk about that??
@@01YA36 i learnt this in history because i am in panama
@@01YA36 typa guy to only talk about Americas wrong doing. What about the French? AND they couldn’t even get it built.
This visceral feeling that you somehow immediately recognize that if you fall into these water you will 100% die
And this is what it looks like on a calm day lol
I think this is where the aliens are lol
Your correct! Fallen Angels
What a great place to hide!
@@DarraghQuinn-d8omake sure to hide the kids
That’s what I miss so much, as an ex seaman ☹️❤️
Cheers to you all brothers!
You miss this???????? 😫
It's crazy to think that you'll end up drowning in this cold water if something goes wrong

Haha totally
you think? jezz.
You will freeze to death before you drown
I wonder what kind of sea creatures are under there😮
oh I dunno that might be where the drake snake lives lmao
Loch Ness monster live there
colossal squid can be found in waters around antarctica such as the Drake passage
@skepticowl7417 drake passage is very turbulent waters where Atlantic pacific and southern oceans all come together.
It looks like you are at the sky..and waves are taller than any mountain..very terrifying

its like the edge of the earth
No for real . That’s the perfect description.
I know you're being hyperbolic, but some flat-earthers are taking your comment literally lol
@@nourdinemazali493 Yo you gotta watch what you say these days
@@d.c.1059😂
IT IS.
I looked up drake passage and you Sir did not disappoint.
How big was that ship you were on?
Was it for leisure or business?
Excuse my curiosity!
Nothing but respect to the men and women who do this
Zero chance ill ever go there
Bet there are countless ships under that sea.
Place is also known as ' the ships graveyard'
The most terrifying part of this clip is the end when the head of a monster briefly appears.
Going with the wind and waves makes for a great passage !
What's it look like on the other side once you get through this mess?
Did you sail on the M. S. Kendrick?
that is some of the best "sea state" video I have seen on the internet, excellent photography
Impressionante como parece ruim até com tempo bom 😂 é preciso ter coragem.
Deus os abençoe !
😅😅😅🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂👌👌👌
Do you think I can try this out on a kayak?
Only try, that too once
Yes you can, but you can only go once.
Looked frozen for a second. This footage is otherworldly
North Sea vs Drakes Passage, who wins?
The Passage, but in the winter the North Sea gets very angry!!!
@@heavysnow8616
Do you know which is deeper? I heard the North Sea is only 300 feet deep max, which is nuts and makes it so crazy.

That a ship of that size still runs with the weather, normal sailing weather where we spend our weekends
Imagine floating there with nothing to grab on, nothing around.. just you and the waves.
Hopefully i'm passed out in that scenario
for a sec it looked frozen
Been there and done that several times.
Kendricks on board 😂
Drake and kendrick are like cats and dogs
Looks like 30-40 plus mph winds.
It totally was! Craziness
Good weather for sleep 👍
To sleep forever 😂
The max height can me reach by wave upto 90feet
whats the ship
Who in the world would go outside while passing drake passage 💀
Idk, brave seamen
It looks like a waterfall that they’re about to shipfall into. Scaryyy
can i jump there ang go to swim?
That’s mesmerizing 🤩
I have was lucky when i did this crossing to get the "drakes lake" and have it calm.
That’s a relative calm day there
Wow . even in a clear day it is still scary to cross here
Need a big ship for those waters
Came here to imagine what my boy Ernest Shackleton went through in that little boatie
I'm glad we live in these more modern times. I couldn't imagine going through what Shackleton had to while conquering Antarctica.

It is called Hocés passage
Been down there in mid 60s and it was horrendous then on a 25000 ton general cargo ship as navigation cadet
Amazing 😲
The weather machine of earth
😮wow
It looks like a painting at first
BEAUTIFUL 😢😢😢
Is that Hank from breaking bad?
Black Sea THERES A KRACKEN
Wtf did he say?
Your going over a dragons head🐉
Doesn't even look like water
Reverse mountain, you are heading towards the grand line
A slight breeze, I see 🤔
Nah!! That is crazyyyy!!!! Thats so scary. I would’ve just told my captain goodbye💀
@@Zjizelle unfortunately you would have been told to do your job! Rough seas = all hands on board working together to survive!

Oh shit, surprise Matt Easton of Scholagladiatoria
Wish you were here
I kept waiting for the yo ho music. 😭
Neptune level winds.
Why r u there? Scarry
This is nuts
You’re nearing the edge of the flat earth there 😂
Looks like they’re about to go off a waterfall
Someone wake me when the "wild ride" starts.
Wow...yhos looks amazing...i wish i could experience the same ...will you please take me to the drake passage ?? I live in asia ?
We saved and sold off stuff we could make it happen. Watch the full vid to see us talk about it.
Some would say the Drake Passage is like this because the earth is flat and the sea is falling off into space.
The Drake passage represents hell and death. Antarctica is where people outside of God's light go
Why do ships have to sail so far away from land here in drake passage, won't it be safe near to Cape horn?
Cape Horn is bad also!
It more dangerous closer to land , waves bouncing off land creates different frequency of waves ,length pitch and troffs and currents , , get the wrong wind direction end up being shipped wreck , not a sailor but it common sense , but I did became a captain of a tall ship when I was 16 years old back in 91 , ,
I just knew about physics THAT YEAR 😅 and I was only a anchor boy , I took MUTINY ,OVER THE CAPTAIN , FIRST EVER TEENAGER IN THE WORLD EVER DID IT , FIRST NATIVE MOARI ,
Waves was bigger than this , got everyone to saftey , 😊 LOVED IT WAVES SMASHING OVER THE SHIP , IT WAS ALONG 12 HOURS OFF IT , 😊
Ofc the passage was named after drake💀😭
Bro 😂
John Francis Drake*
Aubrey drake graham**
Oh no, huh uh.
No wonder they used to think the earth was flat. Looks like your going over the end of a waterfall.
It is flat
When you see black water it not a good sign 😮
This is where I drop myexes😅
So we can't here her scream , I mean life is like a dream , 😊
Unreal😍
Imagine falling in that
No body:
Drakes passage: 😠
Wtf? Russian Prigozhin is still alive and hiding somewhere in Drake's passage.
I know its not for me lol but people just be playing Russian roulette with their life lol.
Wow how mesmerizing
It's looking like broken glass
This doesn't even look like Earth.
you couldn't pay me enough
