I live on the North Sea coast & have done my whole life. I've seen some brutal seas over the years. But God only knows how bad the Seas were miles off the coast. The local fishermen have seen it all, for me they've either got a death wish or they're just mad. I'm actually sitting in my car looking out at the Sea right now. It's a pretty calm day today but last week there was a storm & it took the top of one of the light houses off.

I was on a Navy destroyer some years back in the North Atlantic in January. I was an engineer for Lockheed Martin and we were on sea trials prior to selling the ship off to the Navy. We ran into a typhoon. Fortunately, we steered mostly clear, but got caught in the fringes for several hours. We had huge waves breaking easily over the bridge wings of the ship, which would make the waves at least 80 feet high. I actually had a great time admiring the magnificence and power of the sea, but it tossed that ship around like a cork in a bathtub. It is a force to be reckoned with and taken very seriously.
6 figures is what they’re paid. That’s too much. No one should make that much money. If someone is making 100k or more a year, they either need to pay 80% in income tax, or give most of their income to charity

Wow! What a ride! I've enjoyed videos such as this for a long time. When those big ships get caught up in waters that rough, do they accelerate to try to motor through it? Or do they throttle everything down to let the ship do what it's going to do?
That peterhead (PD) registered white fish trawler didnt nearly capsize. Thats standard for those boats to be in, in the north sea. Experienced it many times, especially there.
Number 6 wasn't in a massive storm and it certainly didn't almost capsized. I'm willing to bet most of the crew was asleep in their bunks not worried about a damn thing. Where do you get off even putting that in here? I have seen worse waves in wave pools!
The waves on the great lakes may not reach the same size, but that doesn't make them any less dangerous. Seeing those super massive waves, I notice something similar. In stormy seas the first big wave lifts them higher, only to crash hard into the second one. Lake Superior develops the Three Sisters. First one lifts, then you hit the second hard, and the third one hits hard a fast. Waves are spaced closer together, so, it's rough going when you are caught out in horrendous conditions. I'm a Great Lakes sailor, but I am on a 40 footer. Storms can form out of nowhere, with no predictions calling for it. It's best to know what to do if you have to save yourself until help comes. Have a plan, and follow the plan. Panic is not an option.
Superior’s storms are every bit as dangerous as ocean storms. And that water is ice cold. I’ve never been more than a couple miles out on calm days, but I’ve seen how violent it can get from the shore.
The channel needs to be terminated if they are going to be ignorant like they were in this video. I’ve already reported the video multiple times on different accounts
I love the sounds of a ship in a storm...the ship creaking and knocking...the wind howling...it's better than a horror movie! Below are the arrogant experts. 🙄 Don't let that distract you from this awesome video. 😏
I tell ya, any man or women working on a big boat in stormy weather with waves like these, have got to be the bravest sailors of all. I guess that's why they make the big money. Please be safe folks as you can.
@@jollyrodgers7272 Yep. That was some smart arse at the wheel that day; that could have went wrong very quickly. Lapwing is from my home town of Peterhead.
Most of these videos are overstated. With the exception of that Indonesian fishing vessel which remained awash for the whole video, none of these ships looked like they were in any trouble.
The container ship didn’t “collide “ with the wave. Colliding is a situation where something is avoidable but a mistake was made resulting in a collision. This ship was travelling on a course through waves. The same with the trawler I’d didn’t nearly capsize it was going through the waves very well. Capsizing is when the waves hit the ship on the side and the ship rolls over. If you use words in the wrong context or explanation it just makes you look foolish.
Hear hear! Some great vids of the conditions professional mariners may routinely encounter, but presented in an inflammatory fashion out of pure ignorance. None of these vessels is close to capsize, but the one that is closest is No8 with all that free water trapped on deck.
I'm no shipping expert but ... Number 4 is clearly NOT a cruise ship I'd suggest that it is a Cross Channel ferry. Number 2 is NOT a cruise ship in my opinion but it looks very much like the ferry that runs from Denmark via Iceland to Greenland. Number 1 is NOT in my opinion a navy ship but it looks very much like a cargo ship.
The German warship in #3 wasn’t hit by a wave. It went into the trough between the waves and the bow went under the next wave. Leave the maritime videos to creators who understand them.

OK, the narrator is not always accurate, but give the channel credit for presenting the footage as is, not editing it and distorting it to make it look more dramatic
An unsettling fact when you’re on a Navy ship, is we are constantly dumping ground up food scraps from the trash room. There are always hungry fish following us around. We lost one at sea during my time. I can’t even imagine the terror he must have felt as he watched the lights on our ship slowly fade away. Kid was only 19.
It could be that the vessel you see is not meant for use out on the open sea, but only for rivers and canals. There's a similar-looking video, Mothervessel Arvin that breaks in half as it just can't cope with medium-size waves. ruclips.net/video/gaZhnNlutuQ/видео.html I only learned later that especially Panama-flagged ships, with underpaid crews sail on these boats. They are cheap as they are usually in bad condition and certainly not seaworthy. The fact so much water stays on deck, strengthens my idea that the vessel in the first clip of this compilation is not meant for the rough seas, but only for quiet rivers and canals.
