Storm Hunters - Documentary
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2018
- Ushant, at the tip of Brittany, is Cape Horn of Europe. The area of storms, crazy currents. The confluence of the ocean, the Atlantic, and a sea, the Channel, in which he comes to choke.
It is also the busiest sea route in the world: every day, 150 ships, 750,000 tons of oil circulate off the island.
We wanted to understand why, since twenty years since the sinking of the Amoco Cadiz, no major ecological and human catastrophe has occurred again. Because it is not the result of chance. For once, we organized ourselves. For once, a policy was decided and renewed. For once, men of various backgrounds (civilians, military, sailors, land) joined their skills.
The pivot of the system is a tug, The Bee Flanders, one of the most powerful in the world, capable of towing a tanker of 550,000 tons in load. If he had been there, if he had been chartered as he is today for a public service mission, the Amoco would never have sullied 200 kilometers of coastline. -

My father was a merchant marine in the 50s-60s. He has passed now but I can only imagine the weather and seas he seen. I love the ocean and fishing, must be in my DNA.
Rip to all men of the sea
As a old ruff water sailor, I just loved the video. What a rush.
Absolutely incredible, and interesting Marine documentation of the brave members of an amazing rescue ship! Bravo! 👌 👍
This is such a beautiful documentary. Gosh, the slow-paced contemplative feeling it gives me. Incredible! The narrator's words sunk into me like I was reading some wistful novel from a far away time and place. And that brief interlude of gentle French folk music about 1/3 of the way through was downright romantic! 😌
I feel such a new found admiration for people who work at sea. They are tough and noble. I respect them immensely!
I know it sucks that there aren't any subtitles for the spoken French...but in a way it almost doesn't even matter. I felt so immersed by these scenes that it didn't seem to bother me. The mystery of what they were saying made me feel like I was really there. Like a fly on the wall: aloof and naive to the drama unfolding around me.
Excellent video. Thank you for uploading!
The excitement carried thru, much like an after- dinner mint.
@@kingofthecatnap6246 haha! well said
This is outstanding!
The ash on his cigarette 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nerves of steel great effort of the men and women on board the world thanks you im sure.
I live on the south shore just south of Boston, I love the ocean, a water baby, thanks Mom,RIP, I've been wiped out twice, the ocean washing away the house, blizzard of 1978 in north Weymouth, Mass. Then again in 1991, Marshfield, Mass. The perfect storm washed away the house perfectly, while we were in it. Thank you God.🙏
7 Years as a professional yacht delivery skipper taught me great respect for that area, was looking forward to watching this documentary... unfortunately my basic French wasn't up to it. Kept waiting for the voice-over that never came so had to give up.
@Spikey Scenes The sat phone would be useful for serious long-distance cruising but otherwise a bit of an expensive luxury. It all comes down to what sort of cruising you intend.. The best preparation is to not sail outside of your comfort zone. Gaining experience that will enable you to sail into more challenging environments is priceless and can be easily obtained by crewing for other more experienced sailors. Avoiding trouble is always a better bet than struggling to survive it. In the part of the world covered in this video, I would always make for Camaret when heading south unless I was absolutely sure of a clear run through northern Biscay. I would rather wait 48 hrs, enjoying the seafood restaurants than find myself struggling to stay off a lee-shore. The type and condition of the boat would also have to be factored in together with the crew.
Question. Why would a ship be fined at the next port for not taking advice? He said the captain may be fined at the next port.
Not being fluent in French I was unable to follow the dialogue. I've no idea what the communications were between either the coastguard or any salvage vessels. Or indeed, if a vessel had strayed out of the shipping lanes.
@@mrfender5001 My French is very limited but I believe there were strict shipping lanes enforced in this area after a tragedy a few years prior. Like 'left & right' lanes on a road, but the currents & weather in this location make it treacherous for ships to disobey those rules... so not only did this captain risk running into oncoming traffic, but he nearly ran aground & deliberately ignored directions from both the 'sea traffic controllers' _and_ the rescue tug captain. It wasn't 'advice'... he endangered everyone by ignoring the rules & the authorities. And like a driver who doesn't follow road rules, he gets hit with a significant fine.
@@medea27 ah I see now. Thanks for the info.
Outstanding documentary!
Hi 1980 18th February 09h30 I was suvivor of fishing trawler rijnmundiv. She capsized to Starboard. Off Cape point. Can't swim but my heart can never depart the sea. 66 years old and desire adventure as this. Beautiful I enjoyed man. Love brave compadres like them .
Wish there was a translation when these guys were interviewed. I would have enjoyed it more.
Look at those 🌊
No way you would catch me out there!!
It would have been much better if I were able to understand the French speaking crewmembers in the video. I don't doubt that it's impossible for a mere video to depict and describe the incredible immensity and power of the sea when it is at it's most furious and tempestuous. I imagine it is a very humbling and spiritual experience. If it doesn't put the fear of God in a man, then he is beyond reason and understanding. I've surfed 10 foot waves on a 8 foot surfboard that looked like apartment buildings coming up on me. I can't event imagine what it must feel like to be on a mighty 100 plus foot steel vessel dwarfed by 50, 60, 80 foot seas and winds beyond description. I salute to all those who brave the might seas to bring us all the goods and products we rely on daily to survive. Good video other than the lack of subtitles or translation.
Thank you for posting
Thanks!
High winds 😉 big waves 🌊 and the insignificance of wee boats….loved it, thanks 🙏 and back then ye could 🚬 on the bridge
Subtitles during the discussions in french would be helpful to understand the intensity of the situation more closely
I was just about to comment the same damn thing. The video title is in English. I watch the video and everything but the narrator is French.
Yes, subtitles during french conversation would be very helpful definetively....all we can hear is something like "go-go-goooo....go-go-gooooo"
Same there is no point watching it
or just learn some french instead of only english im dutch french speaking normaly but i can conversate in english to if i have to , its not russian or chinese or something it takes a while but i never ended highschool for example you dont have to be an einstein
You miss very few in fact... They mostly speak about rabbits!
superbe narration! feels like im reading a book
It’s a wonder that old seafarers ever left home at all. Even today it seems like a miracle that there aren’t more shipwrecks and spills.
I have been in this area off of France in big seas. i went to sailing school at Ile de Groix as a child and we went out after a mistral and the seas were huge....
Wow! Impressive!
wonderful documentary - magnificent seamanship and great filming - congratulations! I had no idea this was happening in that area. I just wish my French was better.
The ocean is so damn scary 😱
Exactly,And the ridiculous myth narrative about transatlantic slave trade is hilariously unbelievable and disrespectful to the real commercial fisherman who have really died in the ocean.
Best document and Best Job.
Real Hero who Helps in Extreme deep Sea.They are Brave and polite.
They Helps to Mankind.
Great documentary & the narrator definitely has a way with emotive prose... but such a shame that there are no subtitles for the interviews as they form such a crucial part of the narrative. I'd love to know what these experienced sailors have to say but it's impossible to glean anything even with limited French skills... and RUclips's captions/translation system only translates from English to other languages, not the other way around. Fingers crossed the captions might be sophisticated enough in a few years to watch this video again & get the French translated to English!
Best doc". vcs tem coragem de arriscar ávida , sabemos q natureza nao tem limites". bom doc".
Think of the men in sailing ships that navigated these waters!
Absolute legends
I have been in a hurricane and a force ten off Ushant in small yachts. one was a 27 footer, and one a 40 footer.
The seas are not the largest I have seen as a pro skipper, but Ushant waters need to be respected. I am retired now, and I would not go there again for love or money.
When i was young, i learned to sail in these french north britanny waters, on little sail boats without engine, radio, GPS etc... And then i had a career as a pro skipper and captain all over the world. And it's a fact! When you learn there, everywhere else seems to be easy... I am near to retirement now too, and i can tell it was the very best school.
Hooking up that big tow was dangerous work !
Are their french English translation coming? Would LOVE to hear what the cook said. Great documentary!
The cook said: You are at the harbor, you go to the city and suddenly your beeper is ringing. You have 10 minutes to go back to the ship, ready to leave the harbor. Then, the reporter asked: have you already been afraid?. The cook answered: At sea? No, if you are afraid, you don't do this type of job.
@@SamMariassouce 🌹🌹🌹💝💝
Good documentary but english subtitles would make it better. There are long sections of the crew being interviewed and its all in French.
Wee, wee wee, je parle frenchy (un peux) so je comprehended nutin. Glad they had lots of info from el capitan (in his kitchen) though.
i really love the sea.. it is so magnificient.. but then i have sea sickness.. its like saying i love chocolate, its so sweet, but im allergic to it 😖
Amazing documentary.
All that I missed was the translation from French to English
Turns on captions... That's a soul facility, so you know the octopus plant grows Dijon.
@@calebhallford9062 I did. But there was no translation of French
@@TheKarstrasse sorry I was just making a joke about the captions. They come up with some really funny translations.
Vendo esse documentario; me trás lembranças do q já passei no mar 😢😢😢😢 ⚓⚓⚓⚓.
Very cool !
Molto emozionante
The youtube CC is hilarious! Who did the translation?
Sit back after a good puff and some beers.. Besides the sea-sickness instilled by the video.. Put on Captions!! Lmfaro.
Makes for an interesting trip..
I commend these Folks... Thats a dangerous job.. Id have a heart attack after the first couple waves dropping over the deck.. never-mind the wheelhouse.
Ayyy great advice! Except I'm taking shots of vodka, or vodker as the Brits would say
And speaking of the English, why didn't they hire a translator or provide subtitles?? Don't get it twisted, I'm French Canadian and I can speak French; in fact, in my last year of classes, which was my 6th year (kindergarten, first grade and second grade, and subsequently 8th, 9th, and 10th grades...I'm 35 now), my teacher believed that I must have lived in Canada or France cause of my prowess.
I think honestly that the last time I actually spoke to someone en français was in jail about 15 years ago. That being said, I can still speak it but to hear and understand it is quite difficult. And like half of this is in French!! What were the directors/producers thinking?? Je ne sais plus de le langue d'amour!! Now they're singing...damn it, documentary producers!! I could've done been learnded good but y'all done maked a american feel like I is stoopit. Das bad. Utoob sposta mek me be more smarter but it ain't done did that!!
To paraphrase, c'mon man...bless a fool with some translations! Dayumn
I apologize...I am kinda drunk
That captain of the stricken ship should be jailed for a decade and the company who trained him should have to forfeit the ship.
Why is that?
Please, subtitles in Portuguese.
S'il vous plaît, mettez des sous-titres portugais.
Très bon documentaire.
L'océan atlantique est difficile
Translation: We like frogs legs, hairy women, and a stiff _Port_ wine
If only you could translate the french parts. A great documentary eitherway.
Even with the latest digital tech they still pick their position on a paper chart. Smart.
追い波のにの映像ありがとう御座います。
Trying to comprehend the stupidity of captains that decide to ignore the laws that are there as much for their safety and welfare, as they are to protect shipping and the ecology of the coastlines.
English subs please. And dont even bother with YT captions. One sentence went like this, "the elephant sent a letter with a donor missle..".
True, they are totally crap! My was nonsense mix of "toilet congress" "negga lion" and "stone heart" and more ... after that i stopped reading..
lol
I love that translation!!!
Should be used in comedy somewhere
Lars Hansen year the army activist in Boise America swan mail dial tone
Creased 🤣😂
Where is the storum hunting? and where are the subtitles on the french? "best documentary" are quite far fetched.
Might be a good documentary but who knows I can’t understand anything they are saying
I used to pay to put a submarine to abandon the ship, if every company does it, it will reduce helicopter expenses, imagine if every ship has an emergency submarine and arouse the interest of engineers to do this.
It's awesome to listen to It in French.
Nice
pulling ships . baffles me what will happen if either of the ship is hit by a large wave on starboard or port side ?
respect
They were obviously just snacking with redvine and baguettes.
Narrator in good English..good vid....
Some masters really dont deserve the ticket especially if they are like the other one wjo put the vessel in danger 😤
Nobody mentions his cigarette ash?
I was just waiting for someone else to mention it, perhaps in French. 🚬
Good seamanship fellas,❤❤❤❤
the "non-subtitel" french conversation is nice to hear-
but less understandable (for prop. most of "us");
BUT: overall, good & nice to "have" or watch! Thanks!
can that big boat handdeling hurrican force storms and seas
When they said all hands on deck they friggin meant it!!! They got the cook in the wheel house on a console lmao!!!
Oh my goodness.
That's current looks mmensely strong.
Salty captain and crew!
Stom hunters, Im lost at sea. I dont speak French. They speak english and then go to french, with something else hidden in there..Look this was our flag. See this is how we clean windows. This pipe holds the steel line and keeps it from bouncing to much. We rescued one ship, in one storm. But i thought this was about storms.
If i learned english in 6months u can do it too!!!
@@vincevegacustoms754 lm Australian 53old and still can't speak English 😖
Why would a ship be fined at the next port for not taking advice?
Heros of France
This is how people need to be treated as on land itself courtesy
A very interesting documentary. Can you please find a way to provide a translation into English.
By the time it will take to get an answer just learn french not that hard..i learned english in 6months being french so u can do it go for it and get the hot mens with something in their pants like we are known for hahaha
@@vincevegacustoms754 English is magnitudes of orders times harder to learn than French
I couldn't understand some of what was being said, ; though I could tell some of it was French! It was interesting, nonetheless!
Those man are the salt in the soup
I’m 10 mins in but I have no idea what these chaps are trying to achieve? Are they just going out for the crack?
What are they talking about?
the french to english closed caption is a riot.
um, merci.
mmm.scallops for tea
Bien des personnes qui se plaignent du manque de sous titre anglais, mais peut être que certains pourraient aussi faire l'effort d'apprendre...
La chose fonctionne dans les deux sens.
Por qué querrían aprender francés, cuando hablan un idioma internacional?
What happened to the original video with beautiful music ?
English subtitles please.
Grabeh ang balod sa dn ni sa nga part sang kalibutan mn, dw piho ka mghmbl french ba , .
Sacre Bleu!!!! 😮
you cant see the french translation because the uploaded does not know how to upload the correct video aspect so it cuts off the translation
I like Documentaries but dont understand French, which would help for this Documentary
pls what causes flakes waves and storms
Beste; runt# bom docum , .... ! quando fala do mar navios animais eu amo sou pescador conheço. esse mar, ai fora na verdade por mas q o homem tente descobrir coisas novas ele fica restrito já mas vai conseguir ir na profundidade exata e' a minha opinião. bom docum; salvador, ba
All to enjoy is video. No English narrative only French.
Just for fun could we call the "maps" charts?
no subtiles, other then that it was a great documentary
This is a hopelessly lost video. Go back to school !! [Aussie in BC]
If you want bloody sub titles press the CC button... mind you I'm either under the weather or someone has not put the sub title together properly on this video.
Japao... 💥

Maravilhoso.

googles automatic captions fail miserably. even when the french speak english, the AI quits ;)
also funny, alarm goes off, caption reads "music, applause" ;)
Fucking glorious.
Thats got to be the shittiest weather I've seen. And I work on the shores of the Bering Sea. (Akutan)
No need to watch it if it’s all in French and there are no subtitles.
Come on dood. This documentary is in French so it should be titled as such.
But you probably want views: even if no one sticks around to watch the whole thing.
I listened to it fine, as a 2nd language english speaker and found the english commentary adequate for understanding what was going on.
Alexander s. To believe you think so little of your mothers love for documentaries.
Hy chloe ,send your link instagram or facebook please 😁
Voiceover in English would help make this a better clip.
Still good though!
Pineapple pasta recipes 😋😋
Does it worrk???
Forget the translated subtitles, it is all gibberish, This could have been good, but it was not.
The doc is narrated in english, yet there are no hard-coded english subs for the french speaking parts. Why..? Why do these things happen?
Incredible vid, however, it is hosted on an English site, in English, and all of the interviews were all in French.
The chef and others are interviewed as well as the cutaways that watch the crew are all in French...
I haven't changed any settings but I don't think I should have to, if it is going to be an English documentary, the interviews and cutaways should either be dubbed or have hardcoded subs.
Bitch and moan... It's still an incredible vid to watch!!
