The northsea video just gave me such a bad feeling. I had experienced that before. Being in the Navy, years ago this happened and it happened while i was on the bridge when we were hit by one of those waves. It was so unsettling.
I dunno and I'm not gonna find out because I'm not getting my ass on a little piece of wood and have a hundred million tons of water crashing down on me.
I remember being in a typhoon while serving aboard the USS Constellation CV-64. Got to watch waves come over the bow. There were aircraft chocked and chained to the deck that would disappear under those waves. The flight deck was 80 feet above the waterline. Very impressive.
Thats just tremendous, I've never known waves anything like that - I live on the coast of the north sea, and it can get ferocious, but that is levels above anything I can quite make real to my imagination. How did it feel when they struck the hull? Were any sailors or aircraft lost? Thanks for any answers you feel like writing, you've had a very interesting journey there
Laird Hamilton surfed the most powerful and dangerous wave in 2000. It wasn’t the biggest, but it was the most powerful and difficult due to the shallow depth and dangerous corral reef.
I was in the Navy and stationed in Misawa, Japan in 1980. I was Navy cop and we had a special hotline for "Tsunami" warnings, sometimes we would have earthquake tremors and the phone would start ringing and when I answered it, there was a Japanese man screaming on the other end....."Tsunami, Tsunami x15". Although I don't recall a tidal wave during my time, we certainly had our share of earthquake tremors. Misawa isn't far from the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant and I'm sure when the Tsunami struck that area, the Navy was activated to help with the local population and rescue. Crazy times.
I think he is referring to the fact that some of the clips used were from the perfect storm a true story about a lobster boat that was lost at sea and the boat was never found
My first time surfing at north shore Hawaii I found my self in a storm stuck in a current unable to move forward only struggle to stay in the same spot I could feel a downward yet backward pulling pressure on my lower body as I struggled I turn to look behind me to see a wave towering over me in such a fashion I felt like an ant about to be crushed by a boot absolutely terrified I grip onto the surf board assessing my fate and accepting I may die as I am not a strong swimmer and I was in an area populated by many rocks as the wave came down I could feel an eerie dark shadow of coldness over power me then a sudden crushing weight and downward pressure all I could see was blackness and felt my self going down in a vacuum being sucked down yet I could feel the cold water settling as I went further. As the water calmed I slowly felt like I was losing my self as I’d been under the water for many minutes now I slowly floated up weak from the fear when suddenly I began rising at a high rate of speed and finally surfaced I was so exhausted and beaten down I knew i only survived that wave to die not being able to swim. When I finally gained my bearings I realized a man was on the beach with a four wheeler yelling to me it took a moment to actually understand what he was saying and he was yelling SHARK all I could yell was HELP I was mostly on the board absolutely terrified at this point and I watched the most brave person I’ve ever met run straight into the water that he just scolded me to get out of to come save me this man swam straight through the current to my rescue and pulled me in to the shore the entire time I was clinging on to the thought of never going into the ocean again
North Shore is very dangerous, if you were not a strong swimmer you should of never gotten in that water especially in a storm. Also you aren't hearing shit from anyone on the beach while in the swell of North Shore especially during a storm but yeah crazy story i guess.
Viking 1: now we will sail the rough north sea to conquer new lands! Viking 2: yeahhh, i think ima sit this one out. But bring me back something cool, yeah?
2:40 just imagine... for the few seconds that explosion happened in the water; we are witnessing the largest loss of life on the planet in that instant as thousands of fish were likely killed instantly
Yea, sorry but I've seen waves I think were bigger. When I was stationed on the USS Kitty Hawk, I've seen waves crest the flight deck around the horn of Cape Good. Whole stationed on the USS Nitro, we hit a wave that actually pushed the ship backwards, not to mention numerous times waves swallowed the bow right up. Last, when I was stationed on the USS Moinester, I remember the ship getting completely swallowed up by a wave. We just popped back up like a cork. And that was more common than people realize.
The fish my ass the islands were inhabited the Americans forced them off their home nuked it left them on a different island then eventually put them back but still left a half assed nuclear cleanup that will soon start leaking into the sea because it was only meant to be temporary.
This is why my friends can’t convince me to go on a cruise I enjoyed whale watching but there was mega waves and the boat was rocking like side to side
You know I hate all the top 10 clickbait trash TH-cam churns out but this was actually much less annoying and more informative than I would’ve ever expected. Good narration, no broken script written by AI. A1 mates
I once went to nazare, and saw one monster wave, even bigger than the ones in the videos...probably 70ft or even more, the most terrifying moment of my live, even if I was in a secure zone, it felt like the ocean wanted to get to where I was, and crush me
You could see it as a wave like the movies depending on the specific case. Some areas in Japan during 2011 came as giant waves, like the 60+ ft recorded behind a bridge from someone that didn't even realize it was a tsunami at first until it was close enough to see moving because it was so tall it looked like the ocean out in the horizon.
Yeah but no but yeah, the northesea isn’t always like that. Most of the times in summer you can cross with a fairly flat sea. But we must agree: some vikings have died there
It only happens once in a blue moon, so it's not a regular thing .. I recognised the Sea Point beachfront (in fact it's Rocklands, if you remember where that is). So where did you live in Cape Town and where do you live now?
Unbelievable power of the sea!!! Great video, i remember the one in Japan, terrible...... a great film if anyone hasn't seen it "The Impossible" with Ewan Mcgreggor about the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami
When a sea captain says a storm with giant waves was "most challenging" what he's really saying is "It scared the f**king sh*T out of me! Thought I was gonna die!"
And to think, if we didn't have the moon at precisely where it is positioned, then the violent waves would be constant. I thought about that while watching this video.
The bombs when detonated in the ocean like that are honestly very beautiful in their destructive nature. I just hope no sea animals were caught in the explosion. If they were then I shame science for valuing other life so little as to sacrifice it for it’s own sake.
of course sea life was caught in the explosion. hundreds of thousands of fish crabs birds insects. you can't exactly evacuate 50 square miles of ocean lol
At 7:40 he says larger ships are better at dealing with bigger waves then smaller ships. I find that confusing, wouldn't it be easier for a wave that large to capsize a bigger ship then a smaller one (Not getting hit from the side actually hitting the wave straight on like that ship did.)?
@@yestv4633 yes, but that is for static conditions. in storm conditions, wave action is frequently righting the vessel or even sending the ship healing in the opposite direction. in heavy seas it is not uncommon for a smaller ship to list 45 degrees port then 45 degrees starboard. (Smaller ships = 4500 tons or less) much also depends on ballasting.

Honestly, as long as you don't die, it looks kinda fun! But also I think he was laughing at the sea.
Why would you scared? If you know how to swim?
@@justinlikesme19 I wouldn’t be too scared, but there is NO WAY anyone could swim in that. You would definitely drown even after the first wave.

Just fyi the tsunamis you see in movies is nothing like in real life, in fact you won't see a wave at all just a rapid rise of tide.
good to know
Um I pretty sure that a tsunami is an actual wave but moving very fast has lots of force and is caused by a different reason
Tava Rose nope valcanic eruptions landslides or earthquake are the only causes
You could see it as a wave like the movies depending on the specific case. Some areas in Japan during 2011 came as giant waves, like the 60+ ft recorded behind a bridge from someone that didn't even realize it was a tsunami at first until it was close enough to see moving because it was so tall it looked like the ocean out in the horizon.
