Viking Sky Emergency 2019 - Lifeboat Stations @
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ต.ค. 2024
- Sitting poolside on deck 7 of Viking Sky, the sea rough and the ship making good progress. Then the rolling starts and things go flying; then, in a series of heavy rolls to as much as 40 degrees, people and furniture go everywhere and the Emergency Signal is given - the call to Lifeboat Muster Stations!
"LIFEBOAT STATIONS!" Not a message that inspires confidence! : l
Don't worry. Hours later the Norwegian Coast Guard provided more confidence to 479 of the passengers by evacuating them onto helicopters by winch. :)
People seems to be very quiet. My God ! 1:41
so would you rather them not take emergency precautions and let them drown?
Jens Nobel Well done for doing a fantastic job👏🏻
Time to call an Uber!
Seeing the water level on the one side the way it’s rocking back and fourth is terrifying
Zac Young I’m getting 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
That’s exactly what I was thinking. My stomach would have hit the floor.
Zac Young it was, rather!
Bring yer sea legs!
I have seen the titanic and the Poseidon too too many times to be dealing with alla that
You know something is about to go bad when you're several floors up and you see the surface of the ocean in your windows.
Rough seas most of the time ...Cruise ships is the last ship to be on in rough seas for many reasons
Travel across Bass Straigh (Devonport-Merlbourne, Australia) t in the passenger/car ferry. Smaller vessel, but several floors up - water was the only thing visible...then sky...then water.
Iam a thrill seeker so i know something good is about to come up
Yes I’ve been there! On the 19th deck 😱
More like exhilarating
Passengers: “what does that ringing sound mean?”
Captain: “update your will”...
HAHAHAHAHAAHA
*CAPTAIN:* _"Did you see TITANIC?"_
*PASSENGER:* _"No."_
*CAPTAIN:* _"Then this next bit is going to be a bit of a surprise,"_
@@nautifella LMFAOOOO
ha ha ha
too late
Engines died. Almost got blown onto the rocks. 479 passengers evacuated via helicopter. Lull in storm allows ship to be towed into port.
Aboard USS Bainbridge (#4) CGN-25 we were up in the North Atlantic, weather about the same
and then bammo we dropped (scramed) the^%$$* reactor... dead in the water for about 40 min with stuff tearing loose and roaming about on their own... PHEW!
@@frenchie6189 Yeah... ok. USS Bainbridge isn't nuclear... so go tell your tall tales somewhere else.
@@jonathanhankins8356 They're talking about the 4th USS Bainbridge (CGN-25), a nuclear cruiser, not the 5th USS Bainbridge, the current conventionally-powered destroyer.
@@benjaminchung991 Agreed another quick search google fail.
@@frenchie6189 scary shit...read "Halsey's Typhoon" if you have not already. Good book
I just learned that in rough seas they store the pool furniture in the pool. Very good planning and excellent use of available space.
🤣🤣these comments are making my day
Where did the water go
@@andrewwilliams9887 i wondered the same my only guess is they are able to quickly dump the pool when seas get rough, possible to some kind of storage vessel below deck or just straight into the ocean. But if the latter im not sure how they would refill it barring they dont sink or capsize.
On any ship that I've been on, the furniture has been fastened to the floor so that it cannot move under any circumstances. This video shows why.
@@jonnie2bad in order to avoid a lot of pool maintenance, cruise ships will dump the pool water fairly often. To refill it, the just pump sea water in and then heavily chlorinate it.
1:38 -- You look out the windows and see that the horizon is above the second story window.
and then below the first story one!
I'm a sea-going retired Navy sailor and even this looks scary AF
CJ Meiko The choppier the better for me. Fuck all scary about it. I’d have been loving this lol
@Fransico Buttersworth I deploy on carriers and I don’t think this would even faze me.
What did you sail in? Dingy s?
@@cplcabs An amphib and an aircraft carrier. The ships did their best to avoid the eyes if the storms though
Just a typical day crossing the Atlantic! 💯😎👍
Video: the ship is handling the Storm pretty well.
Also video: LIFEBOAT STATIONS!
I went on a cruise, my first boat trip, when I was 15 with my best friend and her family... and I was terrified. I wrote goodbye letters to my family and hid them in my drawer. Once I got back home after the trip (had a blast), I destroyed the letters and did not mention it to anyone. Crazy thinking about it now... that I was prepared to die on that boat trip. I'm embarrassed but... I was scared so 🤷🏻♀️
I hope your preparedness is still active today. If so, start a food storage, and other items, so you can be as prepared for what's to come in the near future. 👍
I like watching the cruise ships & id love to see one or even go on a tour (when it’s docked), but I am 29 & feel this way
@@tiffanyvarelli8834 My mom always told me that getting into a car is even more dangerous than getting on a plane or on a boat. Even though I'm a real scaredy pants, I try to push myself to manage my fears so they're not controlling me. But... you have to take it a step at a time and you cannot push yourself too much. We're all different and deal with fear differently. Work on it slowly and one day, you'll be able to tour a ship and you'll be so proud of yourself!
@@gabzie1668 so you get out in the car and drive somewhere every day?
Thats not a bad thing. If they had made fun of you for it though, now THAT would be a different story entirely.
As an aside, there is nothing i hate more than the movie trope about the joke character thinking they are going to die or thinking they are sacrificing themselves for someone but it turns out its all okay and thats the entire joke. It pisses me off so fucking much.
Cruise ships should have their furniture mounted into floor so it doesn’t slide all over the place
Then you'd be sitting in your seat and complaining about how the chair isn't close enough to the table. lol
steve french they could put tracks in the floor or come up with something
steve french on the ferries in the uk they chain the chairs to the ground so you can move them and they still mounted
most of it is. tables and chairs are supposed to be moveable because crew members clean them up and move them around every day.
@@stevefrench4139 that's a good kittie there Steve French, you can have all the weedjitas you like
There is NO WAY you would ever get me on one of these things EVER.
I can't afford so easy for me to not get trapped in this shit.
Same :D
Wanna bet?
1:22 Look out the window. The ship was rolled so much, instead of seeing the water and the sky you could only see water. Looks like a tsunami approaching the ship but in reality that is how bad the tilt on the ship was. Just terrifying. I remember hearing about this when it happened.
So its like 75% tilt?
Just remember “ship” happens lol
Lol and it crazy because the hazards keep happening plus getting worse and folks sign up for the next one lol it's like it's already hard to handle high wind on land so the management meeting knowing this just for fun adds water sprinkled with poor regulations and 50 miles from land to make sure if something happens everyone is completely fu#$ed lbs
🙄
props to all the staff doing their best in this stressful situation
Two reasons I will never go on a cruise, this is one of them.
AndyAndroidX ...what's the other reason? I could think of a hundred, not just two 😂
I have two.. watch the titanic and the Poseidon I did. All tooooo many times
@@MoonSpinners floating petri dish/coronavirus
AndyAndroidX ....it doesn’t even bear thinking about does it? 🤯
I get a kick out of all you people that have obviously never cruised. YET, here you are watching a video about something you are NOT interested in! BTW, I have been on cruises since 1990 without ONE incident!
It looked OK ish even though it was extremely rough… then I noticed where the horizon was out the windows
Passengers: “what does that ringing sound mean?
Captain: "Do you know about the sinking of Titanic?"
Billy, have you ever been on an overloaded Filipino ferry?
(Said with capt voice from Airplane)
Perhaps more people would get the proper message if they played Celene Dion instead.
😂🤣😂🤣
Or
"Do you know about our lord and savior cthulhu?"
The irony is that Titanic was actually built to handle seas like these and greater with ease, but I get the joke. XD
No, but I know about the sinking of El Faro while staying at a Holiday InnXpress!
Hearing that siren go off would send a chill down my spine. Scary stuff
The contents of my stomach, intestinal tract and colon would be on the floor.
😂
Oh well, they call that cleansing nowadays
Looking at the age of the passengers id say this was a common occurrence
😂😂😂
Fighting pilots refer to that as “pucker factor”.
And this is why you won’t find me on anybody’s cruise
Dry land is not a myth. I've seen it.
I try to never leave it.... for long.
Scary stuff!
Should be a disclaimer for headphone users though, haha!
Ya, I am a headphone user and when I heard that I just went ahhhhhh
thx for the warning
No, you mean industrial ear defenders.
I had mine full volume
I'll head to my muster station as soon as I finish this fifteen dollar glass of wine thank you very much.
The sea was angry that day my friends...
I was on a Viking ship 2 years ago when we hit a huge storm off of the coast of Sicily. That was the most fun of the whole trip! What a ride.
You’re like me. Even turbulence on flights I find thrilling.
Should have been there when we conquered it :)
The tables and chairs need rubbers under their feet and they they’d have had more friction and not slid the same!! Looks hectic poor folks
I've been on two cruises with rough seas and my last cruise had to supposedly avoid a ship in its path that it turned so hard the pool completely dumped out into the buffet area.
No, that is how they clean up a spill in the Buffet areas on cruise ships. Must have been a bad one. 😀
@@tigergreg8 It's also the lazy way to make soup.
There was this one video where the furniture and people were sliding across the floor. Someone actually put the love boat theme to it. I felt bad because I laughed so hard at it.
@0:55..She sure as hell doesn't wanna spill that $18 glass of wine! LOL
And she hasn't had a sip yet
@@stevorules1820 she was saving it for the lifeboat trip 😂
The opening scene of this gorgeous blue green water is magnificent.
Francis Drake of England, took his ship "The Golden Hind" around the globe. It was only about twice as large as that swimming pool. 1577 - 1580. Reign of Elizabeth I.
Rounding the tip of South America he faced hurricane force winds for months.
There’s a replica of the Golden Hind moored in Brixham Harbour, South Devon. U.K. . Previously it’s been a day trip visitor attraction (pay to board), but in 2022 also started offering AirB&B rooms.
I never understood why they don't tie all the furniture so it doesn't slide all over the place.
I was a crewmember on a 400 ft Coast Guard icebreaker. We would encounter seas like this during the south trips.... We would ALWAYS ensure everything that could create a hazard was secured.
same, or at least create spaces where there isnt any loose objects and also remove people from areas like the pool area? its not like the waves suddebly appeared out of nowhere. why let passengers sit amongst 99999 heavy sliding objects if u know whats about to happen?
Time for ANOTHER drink.
BARTENDER!! JUST LEAVE THE BOTTLE😅👍
Swipe a bottle if the good stuff for the lifeboat
@@rachelmiddleton9472 For medicinal purposes
My 1st cruise there were about 10 foot sweels. I was trying to get out of my cabin on the 5th deck to avoid hurling. Thankfully my friend had Zofran which helped. Too bad the stuff didn't help when I was going through Chemo!
I remember a particularly rough crossing on the Calais to Dover ferry some years ago! It was terrifying, but at least the large furniture, like tables, were bolted to the floor. I arrived at Dover a dithering lump of jellied fear! Spent the whole crossing under a table covered in baked beans which slid off the table onto me! Some kind soul had graciously put a plate of them on the table as they went by us!🤨
Every time I get a whiff of baked beans now, it takes me straight back to that scary night!🤢😱
🤣. Go watch The whitest kids you know baked beans skit.
@@warrenmartin1607 Baaaaaaked Beeeeaaans!😂 Yup! That was me minus the pot belly!😂 Thanks for pointing me in this direction! I’ve never heard of these guys before!👍🏽😂
I used to make the crossing regularly with my family, and whenever we traveled with P&O, the ride would be horrendous.
One Christmas holiday, during a crossing we got into rough weather and I remember the decorations and buffet going flying, my glass of orange juice sliding off the end of the table... I was alright, I was 6, but my Dad, much less so...
I remember being on a small cruise liner in the North Sea when we encountered a bad storm. My cabin had two portholes and was by no means on the lowest of the decks. We were frequently denied natural light as the sea covered the portholes during the sustained plunging and rocking. Then we head loud thuds from outside the hull and a lightboat capsule had been dislodged by the rough seas and was banging against the superstructure. But THIS video puts it all into perspective!
I crossed the North Sea from Denmark to England years ago, roughest waters I have ever encountered. Another crossing, the Atlantic from NY to Southhampton, England, on the old RMS Queen Elizabeth, 1957, the ocean was so rough they chained many things to the walls, and one side of the ship you could only sky, the other side all you could see was water. People were violently ill.
@@mchapman132 I am not surprised they were ill even on a huge liner like that. My father was on Ile de France when she was a troopship during the war and even on a ship of that size he was amazed at the movement encountered.
@@aliksahnda - My dad, US Army Air Corps, WWII, was on the Queen Elizabeth when it was used as a transport ship. When we were on it in ‘57, on a vacation, I could see his eyes well up……very emotional for him.
The old luxury liners didn’t have the stabilizers the ships have today, but, as the video showed, sometimes it’s still not enough. We cruise, and we’ve been lucky so far with the weather.
Passengers: “What’s that ringing sound?”
Captain: “Have you ever heard the tragedy of Darth Plaguies the wise?”
New safety briefing when cruising - "please keep your seatbelt securely fastened and brace yourself when sliding across the decks".
That's the fastest some of those people have moved in years...
Lmao! U cracked me up big time 🤣
Hahahahaha.LmAO.
Those who don’t know what happened, a huge wave hit the ship causing issues shutting down the engines, this turned off the stabilizers so it started rolling more, the captain anchored the ship as the engines were off which made the rocking even worse. Because they were close to shore, helicopters were able to come and evacuated around half of the people onboard before the ship was able to restart engines and dock back at the port with few injuries
Was the captain at fault for this? Did he take the correct course of action?
@@johnmoran2437 No, the captain did not expect such weather, what would he be in trouble for lol
@@cave0770 I was just wondering if his decision was the right one. Sometimes captains make the wrong decisions and get in trouble for it. For example, the El Faro sinking. Was wondering if this was one of those cases.
It was NOT without injuries. 16 people were taken to hospital, 3 of which had serious injuries.
@@gimmethegepgun oh my bad from what I read it said that there weren’t
Try doing a cruise on a U.S. Navy Destroyer, Top heavy, light, fast, deadly, but, not a good ride in heavy seas! Doc Mike USN
I’m the lady holding onto her wine
LOL...yeah right! Then you must be aging in reverse!
I think she just means it's what she'd be doing if she was in that situation...
Forget the cup and just get them to leave the bottle!!
Holding on to it? I’d have downed it and then asked for a bottle of Jack Daniels.
You're a fine cougar
I would be fine with the waves, but the point when the lifeboat muster alarm went off, would be the exact moment I would need to have a sit down visit to the toilet, because s**t just got very real 💀
The guys capturing everything in there are almost supernatural
I love the fact that most people just kept eating or sitting even after being slid around with the alarms going off💀💀
Reminds me of the ferry ride to Canada one dark stormy night. Everyone puking cars sliding down in the car hold. Alarms and sirens going off, everyone sick to their stomachs, then my dad and I having a good old time. I was young and since my dad wasn't scared and I don't get sea sick I guess I had fun because I remember it being awesome . And jumping with he waves to be weightless
I always love how people seeing furniture fly they just sit there
Worked on cruise ships for 5 years. This must have been terrifying... The only time I heard the emergency signal was during drills.
What's it like working on one mate ?
@@12marcusboy it was prolly the best exp of my entire life. Tough, but rewarding in terms of multi-cultural exposure. You get to work and live with 100+ nationalities on board. Pretty cool for a lost soul I was back then.
@@aleksandarnikolov144 sounds exactly like me bro lol
@@12marcusboy haha, it takes strong character to persevere. How long you've worked for cruise lines? I did 6 contacts altogether.
Looks like an exciting vacation...bet that makes a great story when you meet new people
I wonder if you get a free T-shirt...
Everyone: looks at furniture sliding
Me: looks out windows 😱
A huge floating tavern but I would be hanging with the olds at the buffet.
Name like that,think you'd have something else on your mind.I do
Lol guess I’m not the only one that says “olds”
I’ve been on a couple of rough cruises but that was rough, rough! I do recall one time when we were in the Atlantic, on a 10 day cruise round the canaries, Madeira and Vigo. It was 10pm, and we decided to have an early night, an hour later there’s a call over the tanoy “all staff,”, and code word, followed by another announcement requesting certain staff to go to the engine rooms. Next all passengers were put on alert. We had to gather our lifejackets, put on warm clothing, stay in our rooms and wait for the next instruction/signal. I had kittens as I was claustrophobic and the thought of going in one of the covered lifeboats was clouding over me. I stood on our balcony looking down at the black sea, thinking it’s pretty rough out there…..whilst my hubby casually read a book😮. He told me to calm down and relax…I could have thrown something at him, but he did comfort me. Thankfully after an hour they announced us all to stand down, as they’ve managed to put the fire out in the engine room😮!! I thought I could smell smoke but my hubby said I was imagining it. The captain is not really in charge, in a way, the sea is.
I want to take an adventure cruise like that. Do they charge extra for it?
Dang reminds me of the first time I ever watched The Poseidon Adventure in the movie theaters
The things they don't tell you about vacationing on the sea
Probably because anybody with common sense realizes that a boat might rock from side to side in heavy weather. Imagine that!
The Aberdeen to Shetland ferry is well known for being a terrifying ship to be on in a storm.
I have been on it when the waves were slamming into the windows of the forward bar area. That’s 6decks above sea level.
When we went to get the car when we docked, the car deck was awash with sea water.
I have never been so scared in my life, and I have been in a helicopter crash!!
was on a cruise once, we encountered 4m waves. ship was handling it very well particularly bc the waces came from
the front and according to the cabin crew the ship can handle it a lot better than from the side. you didnt notice much on the inside apart from the not being able to walk steady and in a straight line and not being allowed outside anymore. what was scary though is when I went to the front windows (there is the library) and you could at one moment only see water in the next only the sky. went the hell away from there again and wasnt able to contain my facial expression for the next few hours 😂 looked like the shocked emoji 😳
We encountered 5M waves recently during a storm chasing sail.** Royal Canadian Navy, Canadian Patrol Frigate**
Ships handle waves best from the front, as was shown in the beginning of the video. Crews thus will keep the ship pointed into them in heavy seas. But in this case the engines had all failed due to oil pump failures, leaving them adrift and the ship turned broadside to them.
_When suppertime came_
_the old cook came on deck_
_Sayin' "Fellas, it's too rough t'feed ya."_
_At seven P.M. a main hatchway caved in;_
_he said, "Fellas, it's been good t'know ya!"_
0:55 The only thing more relatable than this was that one guy on the Costa Concordia that took an entire bottle with him while evacuating.
Been on a rough crossing on the channel, I don’t think 40degree rolls but defo a good 25+. Crew were coping but passengers were all over. Went to the cafe/mess to get breakfast & the contents of my tray were sliding around. Very few were eating or drinking on that crossing. Can’t think why.
This must have been bloody scary.
(Foot note, if you’re ever in a situation like this, & along with the alarm, you hear a klaxon, look for the short (5’6” / 167cm) older guy, it’s me, one of my stock impressions...)
This may sound cruel but it's so funny seeing how people react when being tossed around on a boat like that
TBH The Broucher Did Promise A Adventure Of A Life Time. This looks fun AF. I have been in several hurricanes on a ship. It is a wild ride.The key is to stay calm and enjoy the ride.
I did the North Sea crossing to Stavanger during the North Sea storms of late 2000 and almost all the sailing was like this. The crew didn't seem too fussed.
The north sea looks absolutely crazy!
There's nothing quite like a relaxing cruise! And this is NOTHING like a relaxing cruise!!!!
“Lifeboat stations” hell nah I’ll go down with the ship thanks😂 who wants to be in a lifeboat in that 🤔
true alot more people die in lifeboats then when actually their ship sinks
@@nickm7889 realy? If all the people stayed on a sinking ship they would have a better chance of survival than on lifeboats? Lifeboats, different to most ships, are built for one thing only: survive no matter what
@@the_retag life rafts which are 25% of a cruise ships evacuation capacity kill people if your going to abandon ship don't get off unless you have to step up into the lifeboat cause the ship is just about to go under the waves
i would grab my flute to play the titanic song
I would be sitting at the piano doing the same, they hold pianos down nowadays by means of legs in metal cups fastened to deck.
This is why tables on past ships are attached to the floor, because they could bring some resistance and keep chairs more controlled... Cruise ships need to rethink the table systems also furnitures in general, a ship is an entire moving structure, I don know why naval architects always forget that
There's got to be a morning after🎶🎵
@JohnathanK Doe The Poopside down Adventure. Even fewer will get that. Showing our age.
Last thing I'm doing is getting in a life boat when the bar's still open 🤣
“Loiyfe Bowt stations”....always sounds so official when said in an English accent 😂
She had quite a rough southern England accent I'd say.
As someone who’s worked on commercial fishing boats on the Bering Sea in January it cracks me up to watch this. 😂
Thanks to Covid nobody will ever have that kind of fun on a ship again 😂
Steward: "All to life boat station now!"
Woman: (embarrassed) "What?"
She definitely wanted to enjoy the show... xD
Id love this. It’s barely even rough compared to what I’ve sailed through
I loved how the one lady made sure to hold her wine glass 😉
I thought the lady holding the table was confessing all of her betrayals as she faced death for the first time.
That opening scene of the water is magnificent.
A cruise and amusement park ride all in one awesome
Impressive. You get everything you paid for, plus a bonus.
As soon as I saw the woman holding on to her wine...I knew she was British :)))
Um, no thank you. 😳 I'm fine on my couch.
You will never see me on one of those floating death traps!
It'd be interesting to know the whole story. Storms like that don't just happen. Seas that strong take some time, I wonder if a warning was missed or disregarded. Looking at the skies at the video start, makes me think it'd been brewing for some time.
This stretch of sea off Norway is well-known for bad weather but under normal circumstances, this would not have been a problem for this ship. The problem was because oil levels were a bit low in the engine cooling pumps - again, not normally an issue. But the motion of the sea tricked the automatic sensors into thinking there wasn’t enough oil, so the engines shut down automatically and couldn’t be re-started. Once adrift, we were at the mercy of the onshore winds blowing us towards the rocks. They eventually restarted the engines but not before a great deal of damage had been done and the ship had already been partially evacuated by helicopters from the Norwegian Rescue Services.
@@marcus2s awesome man, thanks for input. Glad everyone was ok. Had to be a hell of thing to be in.
@@marcus2s maybe a new technician would be an idea....if the sensors tricks you...trick the sensors back, "short" / "bridge" them so in an emergeny case they will send an "enough oil" signal all the time.... after the emergency you can get them in a normal conditions...
@@marcus2s They managed to get the anchor to hold otherwise it would have crashed onto the rocks on the shoreline ripping the ship apart. Then the managed to get the engines going. As safe as you can make anything, there is always something that you will never think of. Glad ok.
Mate: Captain, stabilizers are saturated and offline sir.
Captain: Well, good time for a drill. Sound Boat-Stations!
What some people need to understand is that this sort of thing, like an airliner flying through a storm, is very very rare. The odds of it happening to you are next to nothing. Moral of the story: don’t live your life in fear.
When the captain says, "martini?," I say yes! As many as possible, please.
Look at the top windows at 1:43. Holy Moly. That’s a wave !!
I thought the ship was tipping over on its side.
It was tipping over, so it’s not sideways waves actually
Nope. It is from the ship tilting
I bet there were a few seasick passengers on that cruise. I would definitely be reliving my breakfast with all that rolling around.
I've been on a flat bottom LPD in the North Atlantic that list so hard you could, and would, literally walk on the walls. At first it was scary, especially as a Seabee, but after a while you kind of get used to it.
Did a lot of sailing in sloops, catamarans, and the occasional ketch in my 20's. This video looked like a good time to me with almost zero chance of death. Offshore in a 34 foot sloop during a thunderstorm struggling to reef the sails is way more frightening as the boat "surfed" down the back side of the large waves.
@@amerigo88 that sounds intense. And I know what you mean about coming down the backside of those waves and basically stuffing the front end into the next one. I also had the pleasure of rigging weather buoys in ten-twelve foot swells in a rhib. Talk about wet, cold, and white knuckles. But believe it or not, we were more concerned with losing a limb or finger than the waves.
What i find interesting is the fact that most cruise ships are full of glass panels and endless rows of window and glass doors. Not water tight, nor safe.
after reading an article about the events: faith in cruise captains restored.
the alarm was given BEFORE everything was unbearable and only AFTER other options weren't save enough for the passengers.
(yes, i know: if the captain had taken a closer look at the work of the engineers, he could have avoided the situation. but: never the less he handled the critical situation very well)
They seem to have made sure the alarm will deafen you so you don't hear the screams of the other guests.
If that huge ship can't handle those seas, what the hell is is going to be like on the tiny life boats?
Lmao right like keep me on the big boat
That music playing in background makes it seem much more terrifying like it sounds nice but also dangerous...
Ain't no way in hell I'd ever get on a cruise ship!
I wish I had self-storing furniture. Look at it! It knew to line up and get into the pool.
Well Cruise Ships Promise a Adventure.I have been caught in 3 hurricanes.Scary but fun AF.
If you had been on this one, you might have gotten (33% chance) a fun, free winch ride onto a Norwegian coast guard helicopter, too! This surprise ride was offered to 479 of the passengers. What fun!!
😏
Highly unlikely to have been anywhere near 40 degrees, probably closer to 10, although it feels like alot. What you heard was a general emergency alarm, (GEA/GES), which is 7 short and 1 long blast. It means go to muster stations, not lifeboat stations.
Why do we trust Big Ship 🚢 so much?? They’re big but Ocean is bigger.
Lmao thank you Chief State the obvious, now shut up and pass the peace pipe!!! 😉🤣🤣
Yeah that's what you want to hear when you are in that situation. An alarm going off and the word "lifeboat" being said over the loudspeaker."
