Filmed during a heavy storm on the North Sea, between Norway and Scotland. The conditions were terrible, the views amazing! Waves of 20 mtr plus were recorded!
Fyi, the vessel is the Calamity Jane, an offshore support vessel. L.o.a. : 141 m or 463 ft.
I also respect and admire naval architects and other engineers that make these ships withstand such rough conditions.
Its been 10 years how are u doing
I spent almost ten years working on cargo vessels, good job and traveling a lot all over the world but no life, no birthdays, no Christmas with family. I survived two major accidents, a collision with another vessel and a fall on the deck hitting my back, unable to stand by I just rolled to a safety place with a lot of pain, almost one month later I started working normally again. Huge storms and huge waves, strong winds and solitude are part of a sailor job.
How are things going? Do you miss the sailor job? Do you now have a family?/
@@knowsmebyname sometimes l miss my sailor job, l don't wanna lie but right now l have a job in Dallas Texas with an insurance company and l feel good here. Yes, l have two kids, l got my divorce and now l am dating a Russian lady.
@@marcochavez11 hmmm this is just my opinion but dating a Russian lady is more dangerous than huge waves, huge storms, and strong winds, no? Hehe hope you are happy friend. That was a good post you started with.
@@knowsmebyname LOLOLOL 🤣

Now imagine it's 250 years ago and you're sailing in this in a small, wooden ship.
1. Those actually rode the swell better, and lacking mechanical propulsion would have sailed with the seas, not against, making the prespective totally different as well
It's a heck of a thought. It's also where my mind goes when I watch these. Running before the wind in mountainous seas in a creaking wooden ship powered only by sails. Terrifying.
Yes, and Grandma couldn't finish your pullover, because she was always drunk.
stfu
Respect to the people who have to go through this everyday, I would shit myself if I was in this situation.
I was thinking that before I even read your comment!
me too and that's because I like sea and everything related
Lovely
That's insane! Thanks for uploading this, it's definitely something I'd never see otherwise.....and even better- thanks for not adding annoying music!
Respect to you guys, many a time I have stood safely onboard giant Oil Platforms and watched boats like yours in these conditions and thought its a gonner just to see you resurface in what seems like minutes later. The video does not fully capture how really wild it can be out there.
Truly awesome. Time passes, land appears and recedes, cultures and civilizations rise and change and fall- and the ocean is just like “that’s cute” and goes on doing its gorgeous terrifying primal thing.
Bloody scary, wondering with every big wave whether the the ship will hold together.
Mind blowing to me that this has been around for 16yrs. I remember when youtube first came out
Yes, me too. I have a pre-beta gmail account and was early on youtube. I get people responding to things i wrote almost 20 years ago and it's really cool. But weird.
I'm glad people are still amazed by the same stuff they were 20 years ago. It means we haven't changed that much after all.
@@MatthijsKoningstein No, it means culture is changing much faster than biology. My brother was born in 1973 and I'm '80, so we are entirely different generations. He didn't have global communications at his fingertips as a child, but I did.
This video of the stormy North Sea was uploaded before the Hoist the Colours craze was adopted to it.
Wow.
I'm so glad to be watching this from the comfort of my own home!
i remember watching this in 2011 when i was kid, time fly so fast
I still remember being on that ship in this weather...
lol at the guys in the background... "Wow!! haha!"
pretty sure the boat is about to sink i would be scared
Look at all that water gathering up in the bow of the ship from the waves that keep hitting it omg!
17 years ago ? Dayyyuuummm why is this recommended 17 years later
Wow...
Those are monster waves!
Thanks for posting the video.
Our love is like a ship on the ocean, it sails with a course of love and devotion🎶🎵🎵🎤🎶 rock the boat, dont rock the boat baby, rock the boat, dont tip the boat over
I like these moments in the ocean, may God protect all who travel in ocean.
That looks so fun!
Looks so fun!
It makes me appreciate how much guts it took to sail the oceans in wooden sailing ships.
I would be scared to death honestly
Thanx you friend
Amazing!
Captain: I need a volunteer to get out there and clean the windows
Crew: (Crickets)
Captain: Tobey, here's your bucket!!
When I see this I think of my Viking ancestors
I still would love it out there! Scared crapless, loving it! Besides this would make up for the boring days!
thats insane!!! must have been a fun ride
Question: The beep-thingy is a warning for high waves?
It’s for list angle I think
@@user-re9gj2zd5e Autopilot off course alarm
Get the ludes!!
no
NO.... THAT'S AN ORDER AND A FACT!
Nature is so awesome
wow.. that's amazing
I wonder what the year 2029 is gonna be like
0:33 a pool on the ship :D
Amazing.
It brings back memories . . . .
Holy shitters and critters and dithers and fritters.
I know, let's hope he read it as well ;)
so stoked
Wow amazing
"We're all going to die-weather" imo
that video before 10 years 😱
that is the best rollercoaster youve ever been on :D:
That just terrifies me! *shivers*
Nope, it's the Calamity Jane. I should know, I was on board ;)
thyztwizta 7 yrs ago
What if one fell, but they had a life jacket, would they still die?
yes. the water temp would kill you before rescue
Chanel Valentine You need to be more spesific, if its without being rescued ofcourse but if he gets rescued after a minute he could survive
with the conditions of the ocean in the video? I highly doubt they would survive. the current and waves would make it extremely hard, if not impossible, to rescue them. I don't think a life jacket would mean that much.
this looks soooo friggen fun :D
awesome!!!
Most likely would have a heart attack and die.
If one falls then the propellers may suck him into them and cut him into pieces.
No point in eating ...
there is a point, regurgitate it ready blended. no blender needed.
I would easily get sea sick, great capture on that
that's awesome.
What was bad about that? Seen bigger waves in my bath tub
Amazing
Wow ! I would get seasick instantly ! Respect !
Bravo!
Ladies and gentlemen... The wirlpool on the front deck is now opened.
This is one of the few clips on youtube where the title is an understatement!!
The trick is to go at a speed which is either slow enough to allow the vessel to gracefully descend into the wave hollows or to go fast enough to let her go from peak to peak. Any speed in between those two will just make her dive into the wave hollows too late - and then to crash bluntly into the next oncoming wave because the bow can't rise quick enough (it's still on its way down and inertia takes its toll). Furthermore, it means to burn fuel for nothing.
I miss those rides in anchorage and also leaving sitka when worked for princess cruises....wahoooo !!
I miss that so much!
Well filmed, my compliments to the helmsman.
WOOOOW !!! Big pictures !!!
incredible
Amazing!!!Wave!!!
You guys are brave!
i love it :)
OMG! SO COOL...
that looks sooo fun
SHUT THE FRONT DOOR - INCREDIBLE
On the ferry from Aberdeen to Shetland, I tried to sleep through a gale 9 storm.... without seat belts, lol. I didn't get any sleep though, was busy trying to stay in bed.
But you're absolutely right, when you don't fall out of bed, this is awesome!
i like this work
Not sure if you're trolling, but just to be sure: yes, it is the trenching and support vessel Calamity Jane where this was filmed, I was an engineer on that ship. And basically, I was there, you weren't ;)
Could watch this for hours
that is a A class video!!! when the bip starts it's quite scary!!
You can't mess with dear mother nature she is always in charge 😊
That looks so fun :)
I love how the guy just goes whoo when the giant wave hits
I don’t know why this video is in my recommendation but I am not going to argue
Feels good, man...
wow, that's out of control.....would definitely be freaking out.
realy impresive!
These kinds of videos pretty much debunk every single cruise line advertisement
Wow, so much water comes up onto the foredeck! Hope it all gets out before the next big one!
Very thrilling!! Did that on the ice breaker USCG Polar Sea on our trips through the Bering Sea and a few other areas.
Ive been on a cruise in weather like this. Its freaking scary but its the most awesome experience
wow!
I appreciate there not being music just the sounds of the crew and mother nature.
Holy crap!
No lie: the movie Perfect Storm would pop in my head...no lie: this would make me cry. o.0
one person sounded like a sibling of me but when the first wave hit i said to myself that was epic!
Miss those days.
Holy cow!
love the way the guy in the background just makes lol of the weather...
it looks so incredible. It must have been a great day
Crazy!!!!!!
Good video, thanks for sharing
That's a lot of water on the deck. Wow!
actually this here video is of me and my buddy Luther. We was out bass fishing on Lake Okeechobee in Florida when a hell of a blow done comed in off the coast. It blowed so hard that it dumped my can of vienna sausages onta the bottom of the boat. We had a fish well full of bass too. It shook up all our beer too, which was a real bummer. Good thing me and that Luther dont get sea sick, or we would been blowing chunks all over that Ranger.
Jim shrook this is part of every sailor's life. We all kinda enjoy those things actualy...
The trenching support vessel Calamity Jane supports Solitaire, Audacia and Lorelay with activities such as pre and post route survey, crossing preparation and mattress installation, and operates as an independent unit with the mechanical trencher Digging Donald.
