Oil rigs is definitely where fear of heights and fear of the oceans collide. People who work here are super brave!
Poor saps, look back one day and regret as the world burns out of control
Is it bravery if they don't fear it to begin with though? I think most who choose this line of work are numb to those fears to begin with. In fact, I'd bet that's a job requirement during hiring.
Yes it’s still considered bravery. They choose to face danger every day!
Too dumb to realise they kill the foundations upon which their work is based.@@MsAmique
Yes to the original commenter its still bravery. They may not see it as such but to the original commenter its still brave
My dad has been working on oil rigs for nearly 2 decades. I had no idea what he was dealing with out there. New respect earned.
You got to be kidding your DAD IS A BEAST 😇👍🏿🙏🏿💸💵💵💸💵💰💵💸To do what these men and ladies do is not for the faint of heart😬😬😬🤭🤭😁😁😳😳🤔🤔🤔!!!
So for 20 years you only deciding, "hey, let me see what my dad does?“
Quite the son you are.
@@DuppedPhoneWhat does your dad do?
@@DuppedPhone it's one thing to be 'told', and another to actually 'see'. GFY.
@@DuppedPhone well you would understand their family dynamic wouldn't you
As an oil rig myself i can reassure you that this is a pretty tense situation
Mad how the price of oil in the UK doubled because of the Ukraine war. Even madder to think we have 100's of oil rigs in the North Sea that belong to us in the UK ....
Yep just great isn’t it, this time last year we were at 1.95 just insane.
They haven’t finished with you yet by a long shot.
Price gouging
Imagine being a US resident and your demented “leader” is selling off your strategic oil to your biggest enemy and refusing permits to drill for more oil. What exactly is the end game? To end the modern world? There isn’t enough lithium in planet earth to make the batteries needed continue life as we know it. Carbon dioxide is only 0.04% of the atmosphere, the idea that it is changing the climate is ridiculous on its face. If it drops to 0.02% plants can no longer grow, then what? I can think of a million things worse than the temp of the planet rising 1-3 degrees. You know, things like nuclear war come to mind, and it seems we’re headed in that direction.
@@billjenkins5693 Bingo!
Still in awe of how these rigs are even built to begin with! Mad skills and brains!
As a former merchant sailor who sailed the northsea often. The reason for those waves is because this sea is so shallow that waves rise up very quickly if the wind starts to blow.
Ditto 2 trade.
Worst seas i have been in was south of Greenland around X-mas, we also lost a little deck cargo.
My room was on the 1 floor / port side above the ship deck, when we was really keeled over i was looking out the window into the abyss, and just staying in bed was hard work for a couple of days.
Mind u i have always been lucky with weather.
@@pliashmuldba I´ve been in 60 foot waves in the Greanland sea in winter. You really feel so small almost like an ant when Mother Nature shows her might.
@@karllove57 Yeah.
I did a couple of tours with Royal arctic line up and down the coast up there.
Got to see the northern lights like REALLY see them, and fortunately i was able to do that with a glass of single malt in my hand.
Otherwise i mainly sailed the warmer seas and bigger ships, most often product tankers.
Alsi done a couple of tours as engineer on smaller ships, last time was also on Greenland on a factory ship where i got shanghaied as the engineer went home, so i said ill give it a go until you find a new one.
Resulting in me sleeping 3- 5 hours a day for 3 months or so, and most often not in 1 go, as the company was POOP and the Greenlanders experts in ruining stuff i then had to ghetto fix.
I miss the sea / getting the hell out of Denmark, but i am early retired since i was 50, so it is a done deal for me.
How deep is shallow?
@@mantid83 I seem to remember that the deepest part is not over 100 meters or about 300 feet.
I am an Australian who loved the sea in my younger days. The in my thirties I lived in London and only occasioally saw the ocean. I came back to Perth, West Aust, and my brother took me sailing in a 14 foot catamaran along the coast inside the reefs. In the course of this short sailing we had to avoid a couple of big sealions, several sharks of varying sizes and species, stingrays by the dozen, and various other, to my mind, malcious sea creatures.
I was scared out of my wits by what he considered a normal uninteresting sailing trip.
I was quite happy to return to London.And now years later I am quite happy to see these videos when I am 100km from the ocean and 60 km from the nearest permanent river and 250metres above sea level. I don't even eat seafood any more.
(For those interested it started at Whitford's Bay Yachting Club and ended in sheer terror for me. After that the slums of London held little fear for me.)

Not sure how you can live inland Bill after seeing the beautiful wild coast. I love London but am (kind of) happy living at the end of the Earth in Sydney and being on the beach everyday.
I'm confused, were you swimming or sailing?
@robertmunafo5039 Panicking, mostly¡ I was a goocd swimmer, but I had not lived near the ocean since 1970 when I moved to Canberra. I had also suffered in two major car accidents and had endured, or was enduring, two fractures of the skull,, a compressed neck and spine, damage to the right shoulder, rib cage, hip, knee and ankle. I have scars in my brain, and c-t scans show that the impacts have left stress marks in the cranial bones, The brain has compression marks in it, and the shock fractures are evident. The shock absobing layer that protects the brain has been crushed in a couple of places. (Sports medical people are now finding such compressiojns in rugby players and others who play hard contact sports.) Life was painful all the time. Still is, decades later. The Anatomy Department of Adelaide Uni has dibs on my body when I finish wearing it as apparently It should not be functioning as it is. Add in cardiac trouble, cancers (two types), diabetes, glaucoma, cataracts, hernias, and other medical trivialiies. It seems I
shall be annoying people after I'm dead.
@Royalty12345 I was born in Sydney and now live in Coonalpyn in South Australia. There are about 300 people in the census area. No service stations, no grocers, no petrol stations. Just trees, grasses, sheep, cattle, eagles, bIack tailed cockatoos, Rosella type parrots, crows, noisy. Mynahs, butterflies, bees, the odd snake and lizard. But no traffic problems, no shoulder to shoulder housing..
Melanomas and basal cell carcinomas and eye damage have convinced me that I need to be more careful of myself. At my mid-70s, I realised that my children and grandchildren are still greatly influenced by my actions, and that includes protection from inimical forces. (Not including the ATO.)
Enjoy Sydney and the beaches.
Why are you living in the ‘slums’ of London?
I spent many months on several of those rigs, the Transocean Winner, Leader etc. as a rig mover. A winter in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea is fun. You can literally spend weeks waiting for the weather to calm sufficiently before you can put the rig on its new spot. It's more exciting on the anchor handlers, though. To sleep in your bunk, you have to sleep like a 'starfish' to stop yourself rolling out of bed. Not that anyone gets much sleep when it blows up... a few weeks of unbroken weather and everyone gets very snappy.
How did you end up working there? I can only imagine the level of discomfort.
Very brave
What's more crazy is that over a thousand years ago the Vikings sailed across the North Sea in nothing more than wooden ships! Imagine being caught up in one of those storms in one of those ships!
The saying to go berserk comes from the Berserk Vikings.
They were Berserk Vikings who were said to have been crazy and unafraid of anything. They were supposed to have been noble people at the same time.
Berserkers often sat in the bow of the Viking longships so they’d be first ashore to take on the enemy. (Image source: WIkiCommons)

Wenn die Wikinger in so einen Sturm gekommen sind, dann sind sie gestorben, sie denken dich nicht im ernst das man da mit einem Holzschiff noch rauskommt ...

I worked in the North Sea for over 20 years, mainly on fixed platforms. 15 metre waves (~50 feet) were not rogue waves, they were not uncommon during storms. As for overtime for being delayed by bad weather - ha, ha, ha.
They'd be rogue waves if the rest of the waves were 5m. Though this channel's mention of "rogue waves" is accompanied by a CG rendering that is obviously of the 2004 tsunami.
My Dad worked in off shore drilling. I remember him telling me about the vigorous training that he went through when he was young to qualify to work on those vessels. It sounded so intense. They basically have to be prepared to swim/drown/confined underwater spaces etc. And the ocean wasn't even the most dangerous parts, he crossed paths with militia in several countries, particularly in DRC Africa. I miss his stories. RIP Dad 🙏❤
I love that guy on the right at about 12:00. Everyone else is running around in a panic and I imagine he's just saying "Save your energy. Accept your fate."
Much respect to all of the brave oil rig workers all over the world 🌎 Thank You for all that you do!!!!!
they aren't seeing this
yes we are @@bbllaakkee
I had a two-year contract with Sedco in the 70s as a barge engineer trainee.
Of the three rigs I worked, two are on the ocean bottom...I worked the Sedco H, J, and the 135...which had a blowout that caused the largest oil spill in history...taking over one year to cap. I had moved on by that time though.
"To put that into perspective, that would be like standing next to the HOLLYWOOD sign in California." Thanks, that really helps. Everyone's done that.
Who is here after still wake the deep?

I’ve always understood “rogue waves” to be not just big, but completely unexpected; waves that sneak up on you. The waves in this video are really spectacular! But, since they are coming one after another (which, as I understand it, is fairly common in The North Sea), they don’t fit the description that I’ve heard of true rogue waves. That last video of the sinking oil rig was spectacular! Just as well it fell apart then, rather than later when it would likely have been way out at sea. Amazing no one was lost! Thank you for this video.
Yeah, thank god (nobody died)
Rogue waves being unpredictable with current tech we have is accurate. The sea can be bad with frequent waves, but for it to be generally accepted as a rogue wave it has to be twice the height or more of the average surrounding wave height.
I learned seemingly centuries ago that a 'rogue wave' was one that was not part of the general wave train, I.e. it came from a different direction and was usually a quite substantial bit of water.
I instantly thought of "The Abyss". And just the filming of that movie was BRUTAL for the cast and crew. 😳
PLEASE ADVISE ME.
I was told to spread my savings across different things like BTC and Stocks to protect and support my retirement. with everything being shaky,I'm considering going into Trade. i don't wanna make the wrong choice.
@Zubaida.Ali.Ali5327Ellen DeGeneres hosted Kate floretta on TV 2 yrs ago that was where I saw kate and followed up.i have also been attending her Trade seminars.
you must have these things in mind
1. Have a long term mindset.
2. Be willing to take *risk*.
3. Be careful, if you're not spending to earn back, then stop spending.
4. Never claim to know - Ask questions and it's best you work with an assistant.
Yo I didn't know Kate was this popular,my cousin trade with her for some months now, I tried but couldn't understand anything it's not my thing tho so I passed Lol. I can testify that trade pays very well because my cousin at 23 bought a house already.
When it comes to Trade, I can confidently say that bitcoin is the best option. But most people think it's all about buying and leaving it to rise but It takes a lot more you need to trade it to earn daily.
I think I might have came across the name on an interview last year where she spoke about finance.
Seriously, you guys have the best, most striking videos!
I got an engineer friend who works for an oil company based here in Singapore, every time he gonna visit the rig via helicopter for checking he’s being paid $500 per half day. The people inside the rig are being paid $1000 per day and to some are more than that.
PEENOISE
My dad worked on the Magnus platform (from BP) Its based on the Magnus oilfield in the north sea.
He told me that it got hit a few times by big "he calls is Hundred-year" waves.
The waves were that big that they hit the bottom of the platform
They are waves that happens once every 100 years.
He told me that one time he counted 3 of them in one hour :-)
you getting a book deal?
@@jeremyhesaid Sorry? Book deal? What are you talking about?
@@iamkian Your telling of daddy's stories is bookable.
@@HollyKost I see. I will tell him :-)
@@iamkian
How's the book deal going?
The last video scared me the most. Imagine being stuck on that while it’s sinking. I would be freaking out.
I'm sure a lot of them had to change their underwear. I hope they all made it.
You wouldn't shit yrself long b4 Yr dead
Ты бы срал под себя
Me too😮
Those were not rogue waves. Rogue waves have a different shape. Almost vertical and are often from a slightly different direction from the prevailing waves.
yes, but calling them Rouge Waves (must be capitalized) makes it sound way cooler
When huge waves are videoed from above then it is harder to gauge just how vast and deadly they are. Try sailing in even large waves! But, these rigs must be enormously strong to resist them!
One rogue wave is enough. One after another I would be crying big time.
Interesting the mention of the relative shallowness of the North Sea and the intensity of the waves generated. Early sailors on the Great Lakes knew that Lake Erie, being the shallowest, was among the most dangerous.
haha a lake more dangerous than the sea
@@0warami_7oo lakes can be very dangerous, great leaks are basically like seas, the only difference being they're fresh water and not salt water. They still get waves and stuff like an ocean does. And can be very deep.
@Notre Cyborg the ocean is deeper and bigger , waves get bigger and they're saltier too! just complete domination over the lakers with much bigger powerful waves
@@notrecyborg5492 i imagine a lake cant be compared to an offshore ocean swell with powerful tides.. Coming from an offshore fisherman in north atlantic
@@DeathMetalMartyr666they get up to about 30 feet recorded on the great lakes, that's the biggest that was actually measured and recorded. there's a huge amount of wrecks, with the edmund fitzgerald being the most well known. i myself have sailed 10-20' swells as a kid, but our sailboat was an ocean boat, my folks and i had a lot of experience, and it wasn't a problem. definitely nothing like the ocean, but they're the largest freshwater bodies on earth! i don't think people realize how massive they are if they've never crossed one. they also tend to generate a lot of unique unusual weather patterns.
I´ve been in 60 foot waves in the Greanland sea in winter. You really feel so small almost like an ant when Mother Nature shows her might.
Imagine just what Mother Nature has done, that has NOT been witnessed.
@@whatta7793 And that's just what we see here on Earth, there are storms bigger than the earth itself on planets within our own solar system and without a doubt planets exist which have extreme events specific to those locations that we can't even imagine. It's a shame that we'll only see a drop in the ocean of whats possible.
Too bad we can’t harness that power without disturbing nature
The construction to build one of these is unbelievable, I can imagine!
Normal people: "It's stormy outside, let's stay indoors where it's safe". Oil rig workers: "It's stormy outside, let's go outside and take videos!". No fear!
I was on a deployment in the U.S. Navy in 1999 on the USS Carl Vinson aircraft carrier. We were headed to Perth, Australia and we’re trying to avoid a typhoon without taking us too far off of our course. We ended up experiencing heavy rolling, pitching and listing. At certain times, we were pitching, listing and rolling up to 45-55 or more degrees. We definitely had many pucker moments. I really felt sorry for the small boys in the CAG.
Edit: after that, we went to Vienna, Australia.
is that where those little sausages in a can come from
@@JonasC22 yup, potted meat with a hard-0n
@@bodazaphfa mmm yum
😂😂😂
Wait a second. Hold up. Just run that back for me please. Your AIR CRAFT CARRIER was pitching and rolling over FOURTY FIVE DEGREES? WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO ALL THE AIRCRAFT?!!
Thanks for the vertical footage Catherine. Finally a clip that goes perfectly with my vertical flat screen tv
This goes to show you're never too old to learn. I thought all oil rigs were stationary. Didn't know some of them float. I don't know why I wouldn't realize that. I do realize that the ocean can be a volatile and scary place. I could never work on a rig.
That’s why the pay is really good and they pay danger money
@@ireneroland3070 Yeah I know they get paid quite well, just don't know how much. I assume 6 figures a year. They deserve it.
The highest pay is to the saturation divers, in 10 years they make enough to a lifetime (I believe it is the longest time you can be in that line of work, before the doktors tell you to stop, but I could be wrong)
@@mikker32 Interesting. Thank you.
Nothing like the ocean at niggt
A friend of mine was in the Alexander Kielland platform accident in Norway 1980, he had just started his shift and had walked over to Edda-C from Alexander Kielland when he was alerted by a co worker that Alexander Kielland was tipping over... it took about 20minutes and then Alexander Kielland fully tipped over, floating with it's legs upwards. Cause of the accident was that 1 of 5 legs broke off in the stormy weather due to a failing support strut that first broke off, before finally the leg broke.123 people died that day.
I was in the radio room on a nearby rig on the night of that disaster. There I heard the radio operator calling mayday just before the rig capsized. That night was a pretty rough night and it was very lucky that anybody survived. Forty years later I was watching a youtube video of the disaster, and I was surprised too see in the video the very same radio operator, I heard calling out the mayday 40 years previously.
@@rfw700 Were you on the SEDCO 700 by any chance? I was, finished at midnight and we were all crowded around the radio room.
😢
Super scary those are some gigantic waves imagine if we could harness 100% of the wave energy😁💯🙌✅
Imagine if we could store the electrical charge of a lightning strike.
Then there wouldn’t be any
i worked a year on a jack-up oil rig in the gulf of mexico,lucky i didn't see any storms like these but i heard stories about them from the old hands.we had evacuation drills at the start of every 2 week hitch.
I worked offshore for many years with a wireline operator named Charles Lindsay and you his son?
@@steveladner4346 nope -another charles lindsay.but thanks for working out there for years.
The first clip was a supply boat or safety vessel, not a rig or platform. The guys that man those vessels are the toughest seamen in the world. The last clip was of a production jacket, not a rig. The jacket is installed over a template on the seabed, then a Jack-up rig is positioned over the jacket to drill production wells. The South Pars field is actually an extension of Qatar’s North Dome field, the biggest gas deposit in the world. I was on a Jack-up rig off Denmark once; the bottom of the drilling barge was about 70 feet above the water but one storm sent waves banging up against the bottom of the structure.
Have you ever heard of a drillship. That is another type of oil rig. That was what was shown in the first clip. Having spent over 5 years on one, I am pretty confident I know what I am seeing.

"Wow, this video of oil rigs caught on monster waves is absolutely incredible! The power of the ocean is truly awe-inspiring, and it's amazing to see how these massive oil rigs are able to withstand such intense conditions. The footage is breathtaking, and the way the waves crash against the rig is both terrifying and mesmerizing. It's a testament to the engineering and construction of these rigs that they are able to withstand such extreme weather conditions. This video is a must-watch for anyone who is interested in the power of nature and the incredible feats of engineering that humans are capable of. Thank you for sharing this amazing footage with us!"
Its hard to imagine the engineering it takes to attach one of these 500 feet or more to the bottom of the ocean
I live on the NW coast of Scotland and we get some fierce storms. They’re awesome! The rig that was beached on Lewis wasn’t a surprise - the storms that hit in the summer can be really strong and almost as bad as the winter ones.
What a great place to live. Absolutely envious.
9:07 the old platform naturally stopping by the graveyard is the funniest thing I heard today.
I just got caught in a rabbit hole of your videos and the one take away I have is 2 things cause disasters and 2 things only.
1: Nature
2: Corporate Greed
I love everything about this video. Thanks for sharing.
어렵고 힘든 환경을 모두 함께 이겨내시기를 빕니다.
I wish you all to overcome the difficult and difficult environment together.

No matter how hard it is, never give up hope.
A flower that blooms through hardship is even more beautiful.
In the first vid these are no rogue waves. The definition of a rogue wave is, that it has to be twice as tall as the average height of waves that passed in the last minutes or hours. As these waves are all quite big, this criteria is not fullfilled. But I don´t know what would happen, if a real rogue wave would come along. Must be a hundred feet tall and easily smash this rig.
Thank you for sharing these incredible moments with us. Truly inspiring.
I expected to see a Just stop Oil protester glued to the rig by his tongue 😂
The last Floatel I worked on after 6 years offshore, was the Borgholm Dolphin, in the North sea
Dude your commentary cracks me up!! ... 'You're All dramatic' saying.." The MIST From the 50' wave ,got all over the camera man's legs while he's was filming"..... and as all the workers are sinking.."Everyone Walked away from this disaster"😂
Great information, thank you!
At 7:38, why do you show a tug boat heading south on the East River in New York City?
Back in my day we had to swim to the oil rig..... and we were happy to do it.
Cant believe the cameraman risk swimming in those stormy waters
This video does not need an introduction or narration. Just show us a compilation of videos for god's sake.
As someone who works on a rig I used to get sea sick so bad but after a little while you get used to it
Rigs are the mobile structures that drill the wells, while platforms are the long term structures that produce the hydrocarbons over several years. It appears at some points you don't know the difference.
Wow, I can’t believe how good this is!
Impressive natural phenomenon. I have experienced something like this, as a crew supply vessel in Onahama, the phenomenon is typhoons. Nice videos for a sailor.
How do they sleep?
Borgholm dolphin i was on it during that storm, plates flying down galley , you banging intonthe walls walking down the corridors but what a sleep you got with the motion 👌👌👌👌
I always wondered what it be like on the ocean like that. I’ve been on large boats in the ocean but not for an extended time and definitely not in a storm. Must be exiting, exhausting, fun, and scary all at the same time.
its hekkin insane people used to travel the oceans in wooden boats
think about the vikings in their pretty small multi-purpose boats 😳
I think a rogue wave absorbs the energy from the two waves adjacent to form a single, huge wave. So there is usually just a single wave, rather than multiple, but I could be wrong.
I was a cook on a 100 foot ship in the Bering Sea, we got caught in 50 foot waves with 30 degree rolls. I was in the wheelhouse with the ship going straight down and straight up, at the top of the waves you could see nothing but many more of the same size waves coming at you. That was in the mid 1980’s. Didn’t puke
the large waves arent that rare a few happen every day its just rare to see one
Just wait till FJB builds his sun a wind rigs….
Don't forget the Draupner wave in 1995
I work for fracking company just said we might have to go out on these barges out in the middle of nowhere and I looked at it and I said to myself nope nowhere to run to Nowhere to hide if man built it it will come down
These are not big waves, let alone rogue waves. Here off the south coast of Australia we have the Southern Ocean with 30-50 foot swells that are normal every day. In 1998 The Sydney to Hobart yacht race encountered what we call a East Coast Low. We get these regularly. During the race, the swells were 90 ft crest to trough but the distance between crests was more than half a kilometre. Thats manageable. But what can happen is a cross swell can come across at 90 degrees and fill the trough with 100 feet of white water. That's a rogue wave. One such wave wrecked a number of yachts and many lives were lost.
Yep,we are on the sout west corner of the south island ,New Zealand,and have seen the seas ypu mention regularly...while hacking around catching crayfish!
First video isn't rogue waves. The definition of a rogue wave is quite specific in that its height must be x times larger than the average wave at the time. That was just a very large swell, which is why it kept happening
Why do ppl film like that?? Three screens, its very distracting and you don't see very much of what is filmed
"We don't have any tugboats in Norway to show you, so here is a random one from NYC".
i've sailed the pacific amd io as a member of the usn. big seas never bothered me....but being in a fixed position like these rigs would scare me shitless.
1 1/2 minutes in and I feel like I need a floatation device...
The last one shown was not a rig but a platform. There is a very big distinction between the two.
You could not pay me enough to even stand on one of these things...
The first clip isn't a rig it's a DSV DIVE SUPPORT VESSEL,you can see the rig in the background,I worked on a standy vessel for 6yrs when every other vessel runs for shelter we had to stay in case there was any emergencies with the oil rig we guard
Have you ever heard of a drillship. That is another type of oil rig. That was what was shown in the first clip. Having spent over 5 years on one, I am pretty confident I know what I am seeing.
i would love to witness the majesty of the ocean at such a frequency that waves are 100+ feet high and you can see them as far as the eye can see 🤯🤯
Working on one of those would take some serious coconuts........I get seasick and freaked looking at a bathtub of water.
oil rigs are the type of things that make you proud to be a human how we figured that out ill never know
Oil rigs are truly terrifying...just being surrounded by all that water and deep ocean is over my head...
"Braved the lower catwalks."
Awww that's a nice way of describing stupid actions.
I lived in Bremerhaven, Germany and the NorthSea in the Winter had to be the most bitterly brutal most coldest place on Earth! I don't miss it at all.
This is a brilliant video
That Iranian oil rig is going to make an awesome fish habitat 😂🤣😆.
How do I get oil rig jobs overseas. I would like to experience it offshore
Mad respect for these men, specially the rough necks. Sucks. But somebody has to do it
I'll pass on this job., If you get washed off these platforms your finished.
In service until 2040 are you kidding, 2030 and we are done with oil right ? LOL.
I don't trust Iran to tell the truth about casualties when it comes to such an embarrassing thing as losing an oil rig. Telling the truth about people dying would only put them in even worse light. I *hope* it's true, truly, but I never, ever trust the Iranian regime to tell it how it is.
Like i dont trust usa and European countries
I don't trust my uncles ex brother's babysitter to fix my car transmission unit. But it's not gonna stop me from making such a silly statement on RUclips.
Amazing raw mother nature's power.
Very scary. Cannot believe how rig workers,manage to work on tge rig. Jay
Off shore Oil rigs freak me the fuck out, just a big platform in the middle of the ocean. With massive waves and an abundance of sea creatures swimming beneath you.
Try working on vessels in the same weather. Lol you get a real appreciation for it.
No, those are not rouge waves. Those are monster waves from a storm. A rouge shows up out of nowhere on a calm sea. =)
I work in the north sea, and one time we had 25 meter tall waves… terrifying but also sick!
Suprised that any of the workers who videoed these shots still have jobs
I was in the North Sea for 5 years in the 80"s, wish we had mobile phones and TikTok back then.
just imagine an extreme weather + in the dark of night + in the middle of ocean + oil rig sinking
Just imagine how nightmare it would be
Exactly what happened to the Ocean Ranger in 1982 off the coast of Canada - ruclips.net/video/cyNFhthQ97Q/видео.htmlsi=PoJBh0ulj3tj9Qte
