what's worse in these conditions, underwater (subs) or vessels above ?
@@BioLiveMagicsubs wont have any problems
@@BioLiveMagicabove of course
It also taste goo .... uh i mean yeah what you said
Thanks im a trawler for 20years it can be horrible 😮
Nobody can ever convince me to go in the ocean in a storm.
I can. Wanna hear it? Submarine.
Yeah to add ☝️submarines can simply dive to a depth to where upper ocean currents and waves do not affect it. Of course going deeper you risk certain other issues particularly the hull of the sub being compromised 🙃.
@@incogspectator3042 nah, plus the problem with storms isn't really the currents, but the waves themselves... So if you dive to a depth of just 100~ meters, where even rare killer waves are impossible, you're basically completely safe, and there's no risk of decompression because the pressures are still pretty mild, also, there's basically nothing to run into, so it's very safe.
I can't afford but if i can than would definitely choose same strom as shown in video because it will too adventurous and love risks and adventuring

As scary as it looks, that ship handled it like a champ. The fact that no waves broke over it is incredible.

It's not too bad most of the time, but when things get bad it can get scary. But every branch of the military deserves major respect, because getting shot at, makes you think about life. Except maybe the spaceforce, I don't think they have it very hard.
@@alpine.tarzanyeah okay get out of home and go work... Oh that's right you think your opinions of people will fix your shitty life right? Or are you too delusional to assume that current ship crews aren't brave?
I’d rather to swim in ocean than staying in a boat when the weather is like that 🤣🤣
@@alpine.tarzan I agree with what you are saying but modern sailors still have to have the balls to travel across one of the earth's most dangerous places. Especially real sailing with sailboats, a storm in one of those is not fun.
I was on a ship with the Navy in 1986, and we rode out a storm like this. Our ship was a 300 ft frigate, and it handled the waves superbly. It was a hell of a ride nonetheless.
Navy is great. Real danger. Not just training like other branches
Most navy ships are engineered to withstand extreme weather conditions :)
The only ships stronger than that are SAR and Ice breakers

Those of us in the engine room were lucky, down low there isn't as much movement as for those on the bridge. I used to live on the tank tops during crap like that! Still got sick, but not like buddies in the deck gang or on the bridge.

STRONGEST SEAMEN
Many years ago we had a friend who captained oil tankers. By the age of 45 his black hair had turned pure white. He retired a year later and refused to ever get on another boat or ship.
Worked in the after engine room on a Gearing-class destroyer, built in 1945, went through a storm a little short of this in the North Atlantic, and later a hurricane in mid-Atlantic. The bow was frequently underwater and the whole ship would jerk when a wave hit the forward break, and of course half the crew was dead seasick and the rest of us miserable from the stench of vomit, backed-up heads, and sleeping only a couple hours between watches with storm straps to hold us in our racks. A seam opened a bit on the aft stbd side right above my rack, so every so often a wave would hit just right and send a cascade of cold seawater across all three bunks in our stack. It would have been exciting and terrifying, but I was so numb from lack of sleep that if we'd have sunk, I'd have tried to grab a few minutes of sleep first.
that sounds goddamn terrible. How does service for something like that seam usually work? Gotta wait til next time in dock?
What Gearing class destroyer, were you on. If, you don't mind. I'm asking 'cause, my Dad was on one, in 1954.
that's so well written. albeit terrifying, loved reading it. you have lived, that's for sure.

Kudos to the naval architects who designed this vessel and the operators for keeping her oriented properly relative to the seas
The "operators"?! Really? We USE to call them SEAMEN. The operator was the lady on the phone who worked for Ma Bell.
For real. I thought the keel was gonna break.
@@Rotorhead1651: Auto pilot's been around a long, long time.
she was at least 10 degrees off. If full that is VERY bad, but I am thinking she was empty so they took their chances with getting rolled vs breaking deep.

@Hirenyadav_CR7 and @gudda2glory_326 it's a reference from Christopher Nolan's famous quote from Interstellar. How do you not know that.
When I was 16 years old ,I was a deck boy on a refined cargo tanker, our Job was to ferry mixed fuels to the small ports of any country we were under charter to. Only 16.500 tons. We often had to ride out big storms off the coast ,so we could enter a port, the worst one was of Newfoundland, three days just slow ahead in big circles, winds of over 120 miles per hour , most of the time all the decks were awash, the only way to get forward was to use the catwalk to get to the bridge. I had the 12till 4 watch . that was a safety line job just to get there , sum times you could not get your relief, so 8 hours at the wheel , auto pilot off, that was how the old man wanted you to feel the old girl , she would talk to you through the rudder , and he would give you a toilet break , and all the coffee and sandwiches you needed ,I had a great respect for him he was the coma door skipper of the shipping line, he was 80 years old he started in sail and he’d tell me of the days rounding horn, and the cape, the Roaring forties, being becalmed, the Sargasso Sea , the Gulf Stream , hand harpooning the sperm whales , he all ways spoke of wooded ships , and men of steel. And he had his old lady on board at that time, and she had good sea legs , she all way’s traveled with him , a really wonderful woman, we all called her mum with a nod of respect , exciting times at the time. .just to do it all over again what a dream to come true.
It was a Manly ship with a Manly crew. 😂
Are you European? I don't think they'd allow someone that young to do that in the US anymore.
@@twiff3rino28 Considering his skipper had sea stories about throwing harpoons at whales, I don't think the child labor laws were an issue.

My dad spent all of WW2 on ships in the Pacific; 30 years later, when he was asked why he didn't want to go on a vacation cruise, he said, 'They don't make ships big enough to go out in the ocean'. Then talked about the terror of being on a destroyer in those storms, tossed around like a styrofoam cup.
What? Destroyers are much smaller than cruise ships and are less designed to take them. Big cruise ships are fine with tons of weight
My dad was in command of a minesweeper, somewhat smaller than a destroyer. While stationed in the Aleutian Islands in the winter of 1943, and while positioned in a harbor when not patrolling he was often required to ride out the fiercest of storms out at sea. Reason being the danger was too great of being dashed onto the rocks on shore. So pointing the ship into the seas and riding it out was the only option. At the time he was only 26 years old. What were you doing when you was that age?
@@EarlRayMichaelsbeautiful story. And the absolute highest amount of respect for your dad and all those that have seen any war. May God bless all of them in a very special way.

@@jimtownsend7899 I think so too. But I prefer the image of a seaman or an ensign heroically holding the camera perfectly steady as the sea and vessel shift around them.
One thing you'll never be able to capture is just how unbelievably loud it is out there.
Yep!
And yet so absolutely silent on a calm day! When I was on the USS Boxer, we were able to shoot skeet off of the aircraft elevator a few times and it always amazed me how quiet the shotgun was when the sound had nothing to reflect off of back to you.
I was disappointed in the music, I can only imagine how terrifying the real soundtrack was. How these things stay together in that is amazing.

I have 2 adopted sons, 2 friends one calls me grandpa, work on bulk cargo ships. I have a nephew that just started on a small container ship sails more around Asia. I worry about them everyday. I track their ships on Marine Traffic and I am VERY happy when I see they are at anchorage or at port! One son is a First Officer and I've seen him several times setting anchor at a safe harbor when a typhoon was close.
I HOPE all seafarers will be safe always! The world runs by the cargo/tanker ship crews!!

Literally over 24 hours sometimes 😱😱😱

@@andreapehjerne8490boomer humour: I hate my wife
One time I had to take a ferry, it was a two hours trip and it was quite a windy day. I remember that after 10 minutes, half of the passengers got sick. I started to get really sick after about half an hour and was just puking my guts out. After a while I saw there still was an hour left and it felt like hell because I knew that I couldn't do anything about it. But now all I can think I the fact that what I experienced was nothing compared to this.
I love water, but seeing how vulnerable the ship is really makes me appreciate the guys that are on them.
Looks like that large ship fared pretty well considering it’s in a hurricane
Small ship would be doing barrel rolls.
There are videos of ships actually breaking up in such conditions.
Barley a hurricane at all 70 mph is small still i dont wana be in the ocean with that
@@heveyweightheveyweight5399it’s 80 knots is 92 mph
The video is stretched vertically to make it look more extreme than it is. Look at the masts.
As part of my regiments Reconnaissance (Recce) Platoon I sailed to South Georgia in 1982 in a chartered cargo vessel called SS St Helena. It was crewed by men and women from St Helena island. We hit a F11 somewhere near Shag Rock. All our perishables were lost, pulverised in a cargo hold. But the crew were absolutely wonderful. It was terrifying but also wonderful. We were about 30 and the crew served us breakfast in our bunks! Insane. Sailors. Remarkable breed. Engineers too.
My dad was a merchant marine on a ship that got caught in a hurricane and broke in half. He spent three days floating in waves like that until he was rescued. Every time he told that story you could feel his horrors.
Hell, I feel the horror just reading your short version.
Three fucking days. I couldn't imagine the horror of being stuck in the ocean for 3 hours
No. No one survives in the water in a hurricane, son. You can't breathe at water level even in half that weather.
You fail to understand the size of that vessel, and the size of the white water on top of the waves. Two or three feet of the air above the surface is atomized water and you can't breath it.
His skin had to be peeling off of his body after 3 days. Damn man.
Floating on water as a human? Floating on debris? Floating on half a ship?
props the welders

and credits to science 👍
Fuck yeah bro. Prop to them 😂😂😂
Yes, it does make a difference on how large or small your ship is. There’s a reason aircraft carriers tank through heavy storms while it’s supporting vessels struggle to keep up with it
Yeah that part of his dialogue confused me. "You would think large ships would fare better in bad conditions."
They do.
Yep exactly 💯
I think dude was just trying to be theatrical. As in, yes, even this huge ship reels in these conditions.
@@boke75 Yep this is what I gathered afterwards. 👍
@@clydecmcelroy4638 In the Oceans size does not matter...the AGE of your ship matters....the older it is the chances are the ocean salts have weakened your ship....that is WHY some split in two even under less extreme conditions.
Mad respect for those brave sailors who always confront this rough condition at sea.
Life at sea is for the brave.
smooth waters never made a good sailor
And insane.
44 years at sea I’ve seen some sights 😜
Yup. I don’t like being in water over my head. I could NEVER do any part of this.
Life at divorce proceedings with my soon-to-be ex-wife is heroic as well. 😜
Dammnnn... That shit is so scary. Hats off to these workers and Engineers ❤❤
My father is a captain who works in these exact type of oil tankers and others which are called vlcc’s , (they are larger than this) . But even on that ship , he has reported that the ocean is absolutely brutal . He once told me that he was stuck in a storm so strong , that waves reached up to the deck area (where the man standing is recording) , the ship went on around 20 to 25 degree tilts .

Hi..im,chamila...
Im from sri lanka..😍
@@ChamilaKumari-f3v welcome
That’s quality engineering. Can you imagine the stresses the steel hill is under? Having a good portion of the boat holding the weight at the stern whilst the boat crests a wave and the bow has much less weight bearing? Amazing. Handles it like no big deal
its indeed absolutely insane and borderline impossible that those things hold together under this much stress
The ship is riding high, probably just ballasted with no significant cargo. It’s also a big sail susceptible to roll over if the engines quit😊
I'd be terrified. I know how big and how deep the ocean is compared to that ship.
As a chief 👨🍳 in the Merchant Navy life in the galley when the 🌊 is rough is very dangerous. Endless days of rocking and Rolling wears everyone out with sleepless nights and uncomfortable days. 44 years and still ❤ my life at 🌊😜👨🍳👨🍳
Is it true that if a ship is picked up by two large waves that it can snap its spine?
😲
@@aardvarkbiscuit2677 yes, there are some videos of similar looking ships that broke their supports and you see the broken parts bobbing with the waves instead of being a solid piece. the one video i seen the ship was almost snapped in half so on the outside it was intact but internally was broken apart
I've heard that meals on a cargo ship or other working vessels are amazing. Why is the food so good? What makes the meals so special? I guess its just not the taste or how fancy it is, its that the chef truly cares for the crew and makes healthy meals.
@@aardvarkbiscuit2677 it's possible if the ship has some weakness/hasn't been maintained or is abnomally loaded (and this happens sometimes) but the ship is properly loaded and maintained they're designed to take an awful lot of abuse - just imagine the forces going through the structure of the ship shown here. Ships have been sunk by weather or freak waves though - the SS Muchen for one, usually it's due to something failing and then things compounding on top of things (if you loose power and end up broadside to the waves etc. etc.)
My old man told me once when I was a kid, "Doesn't matter how big your boat or ship is, to the ocean, you are just a toothpick."
Edit: wow, that's a lot of likes. Thanks everyone.

@@Merark1😂😂
I get scared just watching these clips.
Those guys working on that have got big balls, there's no way i could do that job.
Kudos to all of them.
The theory on why the Edmund Fitzgearld broke in half is...the ship was so big/long, that the front and back went to the top of two big storm waves, leaving the center suspended in air, and the cargo weight, caused the middle of the ship to crack in half, like an egg!!!
You're not yolking!
Umm, no
that is breaking the keel, or breaking deep. They know now what happened is she took a dive to the seabed due to the waves.
What ever happened she went down so fast nobody survived to tell. Sub went down and there is a guy in a life jacket next to her.

I was on a aircraft carrier back in the mid 70's. I experienced 2 hurricanes on the Atlantic. The flight deck was 90 feet from the water level. They took half the aircraft to the hanger deck. The remaining they tied down on the flight deck. I was on a 4 hour watch duty on the flight deck during one of those hurricanes. The waves would hit the bow so hard, it would throw ocean spray up to the flight deck. I was on the USS Independence.

US Navy here, Frigates and Destroyers. The biggest roll we ever took was 55 1/2 degree roll. I loved my time at sea.
my late father served on the USS Lloyd apd 63 during WWII and he said that the ship would be surrounded by water like in a bowl, and then it would be way up high and you could see all the other ships and then it was back down again.
Some of those ships were lost during the typhoons in that area, and were never heard from again.
They were top heavy fast transport conversions from their former DE configuration.
I went through hurricanes on two different Navy ships. USS Fort Snelling LSD30, and USS Midway CV41. The had pictures in the cruise book off Midway's FLIGHT DECK going underwater, and then the bulb on the bow coming OUT of the water...
Walking on bulkheads .. its not for everyone!
Thats a good sized one! Being at sea in a mega storm gave me a lot of adrenaline, couldnt sleep a wink the night after one.

I’ve sailed the oceans and they can be beautiful, calm, even mirror like. These moments are shattered by monster waves over 60 feet, winds gusting over 75 mph, waves can lift an entire ship upwards on one wave and dump you in a trough trying to get steerage when another wave hits your ship.

Had something like this on a tanker in the Adriatic, probably in '72. I was on engine room watch at the time. There was a lot of horrible noises from the turbo-chargers as the prop lifted above sea level. Very difficult to keep standing in those conditions.
Turbo surging probably.
Yeah it was over revving due to no water resistance on the propeller
they didn't have anyone managing the throttles. they could have snapped a prop shaft letting them run away like that
@@shwilliedude973The engine did not run away as the fuel injection was under governor control. As engine revs increased, the power was immediately reduced by the governor. However the turbo chargers were running at full speed and had to cope with the sudden loss of exhaust gas as engine power was reduced, followed by a sudden increase as engine power was restored. It is unlikely that the prop came completely out of the water.

I was on a cruise ship, 80K tons rounding Cape Horn when the wind gusted at 84 mph. All was safe, but nevertheless it was an exciting ride. Afterward as the ship cruised up the calm coast of Chile there was a Q & A session with the captain. When someone complained about the turbulence the captain laughed and said, “You paid good money for excitement on the World’s roughest ocean, and you got it.”
Whatever that is keeping such heavy storms in the ocean, I salute you. Keep it there.

Captain has something amazing to add to his resume.
Like doing wheelies in an oil tanker?
Not really is not that uncommon
Yup. Possibly that he never checks forecasts 😂
That he put his crew and ship in danger by a slow moving weather system that he could have avoided?
He won't admit to not knowing how to read the weather, not listening to weather warnings, damaging the ship - yes they sustain damage, that is 150,000 tonne hanging over the front of that wave, multiple times - and has put the crew at risk of ending in Davy Jones' locker.
Imagine seeing the biggest water tornado in the world just appear infront of you in a dark, cold night while you're on a tiny ship 💀💀💀
YOU CAN HEAR THE DAMN METAL CREAKING 😭
lol no.. ships have interiors. they creak just like in a car
@@hotdog9262 Creaking and groaning in a ship this large is not something you want to hear in a storm like that. It means that the ship is trying to tear itself apart.
Ships aren't designed to have large portions of themselves suspended in the air, which can happen in waves like this, the extreme weight of the ship and cargo can cause the ship to snap in half, usually somewhere midship where the structure is the weakest from the large cargo holds.
When the ship falls back down into the water, it's essentially like hitting a concrete floor with thousands of tons of weight and inertia behind it.
If the ship ends up in the unfortunate position where the bow ends up nose down into a trough and the stern ends up on a wave peak, the ship can push the bow down into the water, causing catastrophic implosion.
@@hotdog9262 cars don’t creak either 💀 except the real ghetto ones
@@GGigabiteM as said.. its creaking and groaning from desks and cabinets in the room the cam is placed in. it have nothing to do with the ships hull
@@TAURELLIAN even new cars interiors can creak. you get what you pay for in that regard
She’s looking light, and riding well. This might be routine for some routes on the high seas.
I think you are right here.
Definately not loaded
It’s no wonder so many of those old sailing ships and Spanish galleons went down in such storms.
And there are freak rogue waves that can damage or sink even a ship like this. Though they are rare.
Impressive how she handled the swells. Rode a tin can for 8 years in the Navy and those were a roller coaster during storms
An old harbormaster told me an old saying: "The ocean can sink anything."It's completely true. Even an aircraft carrier can be sunk if it is in the wrong area at the wrong time. There is an area in the North Atlantic where 115' waves have been recorded. It is a shallow area near the edge of the Continental Shelf - near Sable Island. Huge troughs can go to the ocean bottom. Nothing can survive that.
The masses of water are actually mostly harmless for big ships. What can actually happen is that if the wave is too huge, the ship's front half stays airborne for too long after riding up the wave, and since the body of the ship isn't engineered to support it's own weight like that it cracks in half.
@@Electrifi3d I'm not sure you read my comment closely enough. When a trough goes to the ocean floor the keel will slam into the ocean bottom. At that point waves are not going up and down, if the trough reaches the bottom the water in the wave is actually rolling forward at the speed of the wave, so after the keel hits the bottom the ship will broach or pitch pole when the next wave hits it. I heard about this phenomenon when I asked a fellow fisherman who worked out at Sable Island why it was considered a graveyard of the North Atlantic. Sable Island is a large sand bar towards the Grand Banks (if you leave from the United States rather than Canada), near the area illustrated in the movie "Perfect Storm". I have worked with two of Linda Greenlaw's former crew members over the years, Linda was one of the sword boat captains depicted in the movie.
I have only seen a trough go to the floor once in 30 years working on the water - it is a very unusual phenomenon. I looked down into a trough from the top of a wave and realized that there was ledge breaking through the surface at the bottom of the trough - it absolutely horrified me. It was nearly the end of me, the phenomenon held me at that location like a magnet as I tried to move away, as at that very point the up and down of the wave was converted to a rolling breaker.
Sable Island, the graveyard of the Atlantic! In the middle of the ocean, riding waves and piercing through fog, 10,000' of water under you, all of a sudden a sandbar.
In the sea faring line they have enormous respect for senior crew men, it is earned and I have not seen similar respect, except may be in medicine, in other lines of work.
The ship is doing great, note no water on the deck! The ride is crazy and super scary. I would never ever want to be in that situation. God bless those who go to sea 🌊 huge respect to them.
Hmm! You're correct...no water on the deck....that's amazing
I love how you got straight to the point and didn't make it overly dramatic or anything, and spent half the time just letting us hear the raw video. Too many people overdo everything.
Every time I think it might have been better to join the Navy than the Army, I just watch a video like this and regain my appreciation for muddy holes in the ground.
Thank you for sharing that experience I always thought the Navy was safer than the army but now I think about it you can actually go into dugouts and climb trees and do all sorts of things to save your boys
Where is the sea in this picture could eat you up in a second.
So with your story I have a deeper appreciation for the ground sheets
Five of my uncles were ground sheets thank you for enlightening me between the difference of seaweed to ground sheets He gave me a deeper appreciation for ground sheets because I've only been around seaweeds a lot
The orchids I don't really know that much about
I just know in my heart that all you boys and women fought for our freedom..
I think this tends to be abused a bit by the younger generations these days they don't really understand why they've got the freedom and the big choices they have today.
Sometimes I think the younger ones take it lightly they don't realise that the blood that was spilt, and that people's minds were affected by different encounters in the war zones like I said thank you for your story I learnt
Thank you Brian for serving and all the men that you served with thank you from all the lives that you affected in so many different ways.
The community owes you Brian a hero and a Viking with all the people you served with both of men and women our deepest gratitude and thanks for helping us with our freedom of choices and our freedom to live.
The communities the animals and I are in your debt and the men and women you fought with. Thank you and thank God gift all of you a peaceful and wonderful 🧬 life
And the ones that have passed on may they have a special place set for them in heaven by (God,Allah, Buddha, the great architect in the sky or whoever you believe in) and gently be taken and shown the way by the angels to where they are at peace in heaven

These are my thoughts and opinions from my readings and research. I might be right I might be wrong. It's only my opinion purely for my entertainment purposes only.
You are quite welcome to do your own research and I would be happy to read your comments as well
The sea has no mercy for any type of ship, no matter the size or shape. I’ve been on aircraft carriers that have been throw around like a rubber ducky in hurricanes.
Sure bro
*tried to sound tough, failed miserably*
What's up with these dickless comment replies? Have they never heard of a rogue wave instantly capsizing massive ships, or do they think they're built different, and being on a vessel in a massive storm wouldn't affect them?
Fucking internet man, everyone's a badass...
You can see the ship flex and bend under the stress of those huge waves. I'm sure the crew ain't happy at this point. 😮
😂😂
It's just your illusion.
If a ship starts bending then it's doomed.
@@Anonymous-8080
I'm pretty sure there's a certain amount of flexing going on. A fella made a video placing a camera on deck of a long corridor way during a heavy storm...flexing was easily seen.
It's on YT...somewhere...😅
they need to flex, if it doesnt flex it breaks. same theory on offroad vehicle frames, the frame has to flex and if you try to brace the flex out of it it will fail
Davy Jones: "To the depths with you!"
Oil tanker: "Not today!"
Incredible coverage!! Captured the essence of these giant waves with a front seat perspective and slowing the footage down to truly admire all the details of the ride.
Its not slowed down it just looks like it is because the ship is so Big and the waves are so massive
bengali babu..
Tankers, by design, tend to be the biggest, sturdiest and most sea worthy among all other ships. They have multiple compartments separated by many bulkheads (like an ice cube container) for increased structural integrity. Just remember the way you twist and bend an ice cube container to get the ice out. You are the high waves and stormy winds and the ice cube is this tanker ship.
If you don’t you understand a subject, don’t make statements on it.
Dec 1987
I was on a 600ft ship in a storm.
We rolled 27 degrees
How did it not capsize? 17° tends to be the PNR.
@@Rotorhead1651try 30+ lol, some ships can handle and much as 60.
Honestly, how that thing did not snap in half boggles my mind. The engineers that involved in making this vessel have my upmost respect.
I was half expecting the ship to break into two pieces all of the sudden. I always thought that ship captains had to be part meteorologist, and access their own onboard advanced forecasting technology to avoid seas like this that can damage or destroy their ships.
i really thought so.. nowadays, weather forecasts are faily advance... why do they have to go through this? crazy..
@@ivatan_yaichbayat they could of picked the better of two bad options, most of the time ships will leave port when a large storm is coming in because they can survive it better in open water.
It would suck to be out there like that.
I would be crapping, and vomiting too
If there was a suspended harness and sleeping bag i think i could take a nap there
Maybe...😂😂😂
What they don't show, is the size of the ship. As a former sailor, I think it's a relatively small ship.
Well, it isn't a Panamax, but it also isn't small.
I gotta ask, isn't it SOP to head straight into the waves to avoid stressing the hull with this corkscrewing motion?
I am glad nobody was hurt. I had a horrible feeling we were going to see the ships spine break. Quite relieved that it was just a matter of strap in and try and stay hydrated.
My Navy friend says it's not the up and down that gets you, but the side to side. Bet there are some sick sailors aboard.
or being hit by pots and pans in the galley.
Went through a Force 12 storm overnight on HMS Battleaxe in 1985 in the North Sea. Ship got battered around and by morning when the storm had passed we found that amongst the equipment that had gone over the side was one Exocet missile. As I recall that was one wild night.
Is that what blew up the pipeline?😅
They say she was a real battle axe.
"Oh Lord, protect me, for your ocean is so big, and my ship so small."

It doesn't matter how big your ship is, the sea is always bigger.
That really goes without saying stupid
@@jeffwood5897 you had help writing that comment didn't you.
@@TreVader1378 doesn't matter how big the sea is the earth is always bigger
@@jeffwood5897 you definitely had help writing that one.
Still looks graceful, there must be massive forces at play here, a testiment to the engineers who built it and saved so many lives ❤
Nature at the height of its power is humbling to say the least
The longer it is, the easier you'd think it would snap in half. This is awesome footage!
Now we need an ASMR vid w/the bow hitting those waves 😅
That's insane!!! Can't imagine how much that ship is flexing
I’d know what you mean. I’d be way more worried about the ship splitting from the alternating hogging and sagging stresses. I imagine there designed to flex some … but having half what looks like half the ship out of the water at the crest … then plunging into the trough has to really stress it. The rolling around part would not worry me the same.
The real insane part is the the engineering behind the ship that withstood the hurricane..it was carrying oil..so the whole ship is like a gigantic bomb
@@bayareaguessthesound3773 Oil demand
maybe too much ? Don't want to join
'ARAB OR SOVIET League ' to add smog
to urban pollution. Thank heaven for Oil
in smaller, individual quantity
@@soothingmoments2139 when she is full loaded there are less danger. Empty tanks are more dangerous to explode but pretty safe if everything work properly. On the other side full oil carriers are more like submarines so had fantastic stability and stress resistance but never easy to pass storm like this. Good stereo, Deep Purple on full volume and you just enjoy!
I worked on supply vessels for 5 years. We used to ride out some really bad storms. As long as you tie up with wind and waves it's not really that rough. Face the opposite direction and you will rock and roll for sure!
Tie up with the wind. Meaning?
Meaning put the bow with the wind on the stern! It didn't sound that complicated.
The captain walks past and everyone is just sitting in on whatever is the main room or the biggest room
A little ship would’ve already sank
Not always necessarily true. Well-made smaller sailboats can ride over them easier.
Actually when it’s that rough you’re too busy to get sick.
Man those pipes are tough and more stable than my life
Bro, do you need help?
The clip of this ship rolling side to side is one of my favorite shots in the Nord Sea shorts. This is pretty amazing.
