As a Sailor you don't just find yourself in the middle of a storm.

However there are those who are overconfident and make poor decisions. The first order of responsibility is safety of crew and vessel.

Do a YT / google search on ROGUE waves - it was originally thought that it was nothing but maritime / seafaring / old salts lore adn didn't exist, until they caught one on video - in seemingly calm waters - I believe a 30-40m high wave slammed into military cutter. Don't remember the exact details, but now - scientists know rogue waves are out there AND most likely the cause of many of the 'missing' ships - no warning and overwhelming strength - the ship is either capsized, broken apart or taken to the bottom in seconds - no time for a 'may-day'.
Every so often I think; How in the world is it possible that we have food, oil and luxuries in even the smallest towns in every civilised country 24/7 365? I am astounded how this is done. I have the utmost respect and admiration for these men, they are incredible.
It is kind of insane, yeah. When you take into account how vast the world is, how treacherous conditions can be, and the fact that there are billions-hell, trillions upon trillions of items being transported daily…I mean, sure, modern technology, but I have so much respect for anyone who works in the transport of goods. I think tracking, fast shipping, and just the ability to receive a package at an accurate location is often taken for granted. So much goes into it, it’s unreal.
I'm not fascinated by who does the job (they're obviously skilled, mad respect) I'm more fascinated by the scheduling, efficiency and just the seamless execution and tolerance of rules and regulations. All of that done creates this efficient eco system.
I was in the Merchant Navy. I got my sea legs in the Bay of Biscay. Once broke down in a North Atlantic storm on an iron carrier, we had to position the ship into the storm to survive. Also caught on the edge of a hurricane on an oil tanker not far from Durban, we managed to get to port where we saw half an oil tanker being towed in, the rest had been destroyed.
My Ex was in the Merchant on that same ship and told the exact same story. He was new on the ship as well, and told of the amazing skill of the Captain who steered it through the storm. He also described seeing the ship that had been cut in half being towed in. Small world indeed!
I was a navigator in the Merchant Navy with CP Ships and have to say that I really enjoyed rough weather, sometimes for a week at a time. Great memories and great people irrespective of nationality!
Yeah, but, I'm thinking. Ain't nothin happening down below with all that ( Weather?) Going on up top. Probably the best time to explore the depths, and not worry about sharks. But, if it's churning up top. It's as bad below as well.
Thank you! No stupid background noise that some claim to be music. And thanks for giving us some good background on all the picks. It's especially good to know that no one got hurt.
imagine the vikings and polynesians hundreds of years ago when they sailed the vast oceans with their antique ships in such conditions. I really admire and respect the greatness of my ancestors
Most sailors don't get frightened in bad weather. I was in the Navy on an aircraft carrier in 1966. We were headed home from Vietnam and we got I to a typhoon between Japan and Midway Island. We had 150 MPH winds and 80 foot waves. Our screws would come out of the water when we went over the waves. We could only do 7 knots to give us steering.
The only thing that really matters now are lost souls. Jesus Christ is the only way to Heaven, there is no other way! 1 Corinthians 15:1-4, saves lost souls. Please get saved, time is running out!! Heaven and Hell are real, literal places, there's no in-between. Choose your eternal destination for your soul wisely.
The screws spinning in air are troubling for several reasons. One, when the screws are out of the water, forward motion stops. Second, when the screws reenter the water, they spin for a bit in foam with all the air the bring down with them, further slowing the vessel. That said, 3 knots is not surprising at all.
@@Ronin4614 I'm guessing if the screws leave the water... The rudder does as well??? so in cross winds & currents, steering is momentarilly suspended as well??? That would be nervy...
25 year navy captain here I sailed my 850 foot twin screw landing ship through a class 4 hurricane and I can relate to these videos!! Me and my crew sent our families our ( thought to be) last messages during the voyage! It was the scariest experience I’ve ever been through… our tanks diluted with hydra carbon distillate a few hours after taking a 60 foot crawler to the bow of the starboard side… we crawled to the nearest desolate island on a single port engine in search of rescue and anchored in the safest bay… we called for help via eperb radio to the beacons near by and managed to get a signal! After 4 long days running low on food and water rations we were rescued by USSR navy team and we all went home to our families… moral of the story is love your family love your kids cause you never know what your gonna get caught up in!!

Doubt. It’s not an eperb radio, it’s an EPIRB, for “emergency position-indicating radio beacon”. It’s not a two-way, it’s a beacon. Naval captains are, in my experience, well-educated and well-read. That post is rife with errors in elementary grammar. Sorry, but I’m not buying it.

DAMN, THIS BRINGS BACK ALLOT OF MEMORIES!!!! Try riding-out several South China Sea and Pacific typhoons in an aircraft carrier so old she missed WWII by a few months. Having a 45,000+ ton ship get swallowed by humungous waves )especially that one trip out of Hong Kong in '83?), ...only to, surprisingly, pop like a cork after being TOTALLY SWETPED underwater, thinking you're going to drown and NEVER raise to the surface, ...EVER AGAIN! After nearly 3 years of things like this, I was NEVER impressed with, so called, sever weather in the states again.
As a seafarer myself, Ive not experienced anything above a force 10, and that was well enough for me thank you very much!! Just North of the Falklands Islands September 2015, was horrendous, life jackets on on the bridge :-(
I work on container ship, I love the rough seas whenever there is storm, huge waves its an amazing site to look at, the adrenaline rush is something 👌 ❤
Underworld , I use to live in Halifax Nova Scotia, and there was several beaches that would get pounded by huge waves , and my uncle worked in the navy in submarines often, I can remember the ships being docked and when ever a storm came in , they would be tossed about while connected to the docking area . Was pretty amazing to see just how powerful the oceans can get , love your video ,✌️✌️✌️
My exH was in the US Navy… anytime a storm came in they would be recalled immediately to get the ships out of the ports so they purposely wouldn’t have to weather the storm attached to the dock. That’s a sure fire way to ruin a fleet and completely take out not only the docks, but quite possibly the entire port. Even where I am at now, the merchant marines move their ships out (unless they absolutely can’t), because it’s safer for all involved. You said in a previous comment this was many years ago - I wonder if they still ride out storms the same way? Seems very expensive to repair. 🤷🏼♀️
The Navy exercise is the culmination of many hours, weeks, months and even years of practice for the crewmen. However, they will go where and when orders say they must go - that is the duty of all soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen - they are all volunteers.
13:10 Those folks in that patrol boat chugging on in that stormy antarctic seas got serious huevos to be running in such serious chop in such a tiny vessel! 😱
I remember watching one of the crew of one of the crab boats get tossed overboard after a rogue wave sent a crab pod right into his back. He was lucky to survive.
Out of all your footage, seeing the tiny rescue boat being a boss in a force twelve hurricane takes balls and what should you be afraid of if you were on the boat and lived to tell it.
Makes you wonder if the CO had a personal grudge with the folks on the training mission in the last clip or if it was sheer incompetence with all personnel involved. You don't launch training exercises if you can't reliably retrieve your team members.
Exactly! Who sends people on "training" like that!?! It's all well and good to tell a thrilling story after everyone survived. But what if not? The ocean isn't to be fooled around with thus, I feel... Again, I'm no mariner. What do I know?
Wow these pictures give a lot of credit to the great sea captains that are able to maneuver around huge typhoon waves they really know how to Batten down the hatches, because if these ships have survived, that means there’s a lot of organization going out to protect the cargo that they’re transporting
I spent four years in the U.S. Navy. I was aboard an Aircraft Carrier. Once, we were in 50 foot waves, remnants of a storm not too far away. Some sailors were getting sea sick. Our ship rode out the waves without instant, and a few times I saw water going over the flight deck. What impressed me the most, a U.S. Destroyer following behind us, spent half of the time underwater. Waves were going over the bridge. I was glad I was on my ship. When I think back, those four years were the best four years of my life. If you are young and considering joining the U.S. Navy, JUST DO IT. In the long run, you will be glad you did.
Warships have really bad stability and they are continuosly being awashed by water. Of course their construction allows them to move quicker than commercial vessels but in prize of poor stability
@@ukaszw6623 I think you could do with learning about ships stability, most warships have good stability. They take alot of water over the top by design for a number of reasons none of which are related to stability.
Definitely one of the most destructive forces out there. From carving the grand canyon to giant tsunamis or just a normal flood. Most of the sand you see if from bigger rocks just continually pounded by waves till they run against eachother and crush down into smaller and smaller particles
Lol, the nervous laughter on the New Zealand Navy Ship didnt fool me for a second..no matter how huge and well built they are all tiny specks in the oceans.
#4 "The ship was no match for the giant waves." Moments later "The ship reached land with no damage and no injuries." Seems to me that the ship did just fine against the waves. Lol.
Well done the content creator, for not vertically stretching the video as 90% of people do in seascapes. Good honest video of very bad seas - glad you appreciate that there’s no need for exaggeration
That small boat training cannot get much more realistic and without a doubt, the roughest weather that they may ever encounter. Glad that the training was not cancelled.
@@zakvondaniken9327 they are storm waves which occur when a number of smaller waves clump together. The hulking great wall of water then rises as much as 3 times the average wave height. And they dont follow the general wave pattern. They are very powerful and unpredictable. They have sunk many ships.
The Southern Antarctic vortex has been particularly wicked this year with the Antarctic recording its coldest winter on record averaging minus 78 degrees and the southern oceans particulaly bitter to navigate on the back of the extremely viscious season
Thank you for the clip.it's is scary and terrifyng to see such rough seas,waves high like mountains.it's only by the mercy of Almighty God that made the ships to reach their destinations safely.praise your lord my brothers and sisters for saving your lives.
This is one of your scariest videos for me. I would’ve vomitted, screamed and cried altogether if i were ever stuck in the ship with these monster waves going on.
All ships sailing on the high seas steer with an so-called Autopilot, no human labour (steering) involved. Sometimes when engaging a particular large wave, the Autopilot is not able to maintain the set course (thrown out of it's set limits of let say 2 or 3 degrees) and then you will hear that annoying beep indication the autopilot cannot keep its set course.
I've been in heavy seas fishing over 35 years.Off of the coast of Rhode Island. But the girl laughing at 6:09 is braver than most taking 60 foot monster waves.
Brave? Dont think so. That girls laughed only because see is naive, believing in the invincibility of her vessel and being in a group on the bridge, hiding her nervousness probably. Might also be her first serious storm and not realizing the seriousness of the situation. Since, after all, what was now so funny about it?
I've been working as a sailor and as bosun on small, and even smaller ships for 20 years worldwide, and i have been in this situation many times and worse. I loved any moment of it.
The ocean planet must not be taken for granted just cause we call it home. With the global temp rising, the ferocity of storms will increase manifold - we'll then realize the unforgiving ferocity of natural forces which unfortunately can't be tamed even with the best of our tools & technology
My dad was navigator on merchant ships in WW2. He was from England and did the Atlantic traverse across to Canada. Then he did the African coastline, around the horn of Africa to Durban, and on to India.He went through a lot of wild oceans. But after the war he married my mum in Oz, and did some merchant work for a bit longer. He told me about one time in the Southern Ocean when they "surfed" down a wave, and then he looked up from the bridge when they were in the trough, and this giant wave towered ahead of them. Then they rose up the other side and got hit by this gigantic wash. It was the biggest he had ever seen.
These are also called rogue or freak waves, they happen thousands of times each day and in any sea state. They can reach more then twice the average high wave hight and are likely caused by constructive wave intereference, same as wave interference works with other waves, acousitc or electromagnetic for example. One interesting fact is that waves ofcourse consist of a high and a low point, and as constructive interference can build up the wave hight to a rogue wave, it can deepen the wave trough, creating a rogue hole that can be just as devastating.
Few experiences are more exhilarating than being on a warship crashing and riding waves at speed. The power of the sea…tonnes of green water hitting the bridge and shuddering throughout the entire ship.
I grew up lobstering in Maine I've been on some pretty nasty seas It's crazy to think that on a flat calm day that the ocean can turn into that you can't believe that water can move like that know what I mean

I spent four years in the U.S. Navy. I was aboard an Aircraft Carrier. Once, we were in 50 foot waves, remnants of a storm not too far away. Some sailors were getting sea sick. Our ship rode out the waves without instant, and a few times I saw water going over the flight deck. What impressed me the most, a U.S. Destroyer following behind us, spent half of the time underwater. Waves were going over the bridge. I was glad I was on my ship. When I think back, those four years were the best four years of my life. If you are young and considering joining the U.S. Navy, JUST DO IT. In the long run, you will be glad you did.
Warships have really bad stability and they are continuosly being awashed by water. Of course their construction allows them to move quicker than commercial vessels but in prize of poor stability
peddle your propaganda elsewhere
I'll pass. Never want to strap myself into my rack so I don't fall off my rack lol . CVN or bust :D
@@TkKirkland-lm5wv LOL funny
@@ukaszw6623 I think you could do with learning about ships stability, most warships have good stability. They take alot of water over the top by design for a number of reasons none of which are related to stability.
I’m absolutely fascinated by the strength and power of water
Definitely one of the most destructive forces out there. From carving the grand canyon to giant tsunamis or just a normal flood. Most of the sand you see if from bigger rocks just continually pounded by waves till they run against eachother and crush down into smaller and smaller particles
Fascinated and terrified, simultaneously
Lol, the nervous laughter on the New Zealand Navy Ship didnt fool me for a second..no matter how huge and well built they are all tiny specks in the oceans.
#4 "The ship was no match for the giant waves." Moments later "The ship reached land with no damage and no injuries." Seems to me that the ship did just fine against the waves. Lol.
Was just about to comment exactly this, but you've beaten me to it. This is why proofreading is important! :D
nothing is really more beautiful and as terrifying as the sea, it's as equally terrifying as it is beautiful
I love these types of videos I can't even lie.
Well done the content creator, for not vertically stretching the video as 90% of people do in seascapes. Good honest video of very bad seas - glad you appreciate that there’s no need for exaggeration
Top job to the helmsman skill of the rib in the last video 🤜
That small boat training cannot get much more realistic and without a doubt, the roughest weather that they may ever encounter. Glad that the training was not cancelled.
I like the quote from the RNZN crew: Oh the gun just got f**ed up!
This is the biggest proof that there is a great Creator behind all this creation
That first video was an example of a rogue wave. The people on that tanker were very lucky. Those monsters are killers
What Is a Rouge wave why are they dangerous
@@zakvondaniken9327 they are storm waves which occur when a number of smaller waves clump together. The hulking great wall of water then rises as much as 3 times the average wave height. And they dont follow the general wave pattern. They are very powerful and unpredictable. They have sunk many ships.
I’m just glade none of them were tsunamis……well maybe the last one
Oh wait the second one
Lol
Dude. Hardcore. My head is swimming just from watching. Imagine how intense it was in person.
I have a feeling that clip one is in fact a rogue wave as it comes from a completly diffrent direction from the normal waves.
Scary as thought!
it was a rogue for sure. sometimes they got 3 to 4 times bigger then the others surrounding.
Oddly enough this entire video was extremely satisfying for me I absolutely love the ocean and everything about it especially the power it exudes
My man was bricked up watchin this
@@trever9143 AYOOOO
Can you imagine being one of those guys in the patrol boat. I'd have lost my mind in that.
Ocean and wind… the perfect storm. Great video. Respect.
Those Marines at the end in the training video........ Are fucking fearless
Our sailors in NZ are pretty much like Marines as well tho :D
The skipper of that patrol boat was damn good.
Shivers down my spine. That is absolutely terrifying! Imagine our ancestors crossing those waves in tiny wooden boats!
AND coast guards around the world have to go into these maelstroms to save mariners. Respect.
The Southern Antarctic vortex has been particularly wicked this year with the Antarctic recording its coldest winter on record averaging minus 78 degrees and the southern oceans particulaly bitter to navigate on the back of the extremely viscious season
That's impossible. We're in the grip of Global Warming!
Thank you for the clip.it's is scary and terrifyng to see such rough seas,waves high like mountains.it's only by the mercy of Almighty God that made the ships to reach their destinations safely.praise your lord my brothers and sisters for saving your lives.
Imagine the Vikings sailing these waters with their wooden boats! Insane!
Respect the oceans !!
This is one of your scariest videos for me. I would’ve vomitted, screamed and cried altogether if i were ever stuck in the ship with these monster waves going on.
Diyunjae1 eu tenho pavor a águas e a altura
The guy in video #2 is an ace. His angles and read of the swells are about as good as one can get in a vessel that size.
All ships sailing on the high seas steer with an so-called Autopilot, no human labour (steering) involved. Sometimes when engaging a particular large wave, the Autopilot is not able to maintain the set course (thrown out of it's set limits of let say 2 or 3 degrees) and then you will hear that annoying beep indication the autopilot cannot keep its set course.
Amazing how quiet the ship’s bridge remains despite the millions of gallons smashing against the ship
Those guys on that patrol boat are freaking nuts
my toxic trait is believing i could survive swimming in those waves 💀
Nothing better than watching these videos tucked in your nice cosy bed
6 years in the Navy, I've ridden some of those out on a tin can. Always mesmerizing watching them from inside the ship.
Driver of that little boat had some skills
I've been in heavy seas fishing over 35 years.Off of the coast of Rhode Island.
But the girl laughing at 6:09 is braver than most taking 60 foot monster waves.
I think it's just ignorance. It is possible that a 7 year old kid would react in the same way, only because trust the ship and her companions
🤔
Brave? Dont think so. That girls laughed only because see is naive, believing in the invincibility of her vessel and being in a group on the bridge, hiding her nervousness probably. Might also be her first serious storm and not realizing the seriousness of the situation. Since, after all, what was now so funny about it?
Watching
I've been working as a sailor and as bosun on small, and even smaller ships for 20 years worldwide, and i have been in this situation many times and worse. I loved any moment of it.
😳😳
Ok
The ocean planet must not be taken for granted just cause we call it home.
With the global temp rising, the ferocity of storms will increase manifold - we'll then realize the unforgiving ferocity of natural forces which unfortunately can't be tamed even with the best of our tools & technology
Mas respect to the engineers and even more mad respect to the ocean
The background music goes perfectly with the video. That's a frickin hell of a job
My impression of some of these ships:
"Now I'm a ship. Now I'm a submarine. Now I'm a ship. Now I'm a submarine."
This made me seasick! I admire the shipcrew for doing these trips! Amazing👌
My dad was navigator on merchant ships in WW2. He was from England and did the Atlantic traverse across to Canada. Then he did the African coastline, around the horn of Africa to Durban, and on to India.He went through a lot of wild oceans.
But after the war he married my mum in Oz, and did some merchant work for a bit longer. He told me about one time in the Southern Ocean when they "surfed" down a wave, and then he looked up from the bridge when they were in the trough, and this giant wave towered ahead of them. Then they rose up the other side and got hit by this gigantic wash. It was the biggest he had ever seen.
Hello... how are you doing??
@@caseyandrew9627 good
Those guys in that rib boat at the end….omg!!! That’s just absolutely mind blowing they put out in that!!!
These are also called rogue or freak waves, they happen thousands of times each day and in any sea state. They can reach more then twice the average high wave hight and are likely caused by constructive wave intereference, same as wave interference works with other waves, acousitc or electromagnetic for example. One interesting fact is that waves ofcourse consist of a high and a low point, and as constructive interference can build up the wave hight to a rogue wave, it can deepen the wave trough, creating a rogue hole that can be just as devastating.
None of these were rogue waves, up until recently there has never been one officially videotaped. These were just very high waves
Instead of short Clips, I'd love to see the whole Voyage.
Few experiences are more exhilarating than being on a warship crashing and riding waves at speed. The power of the sea…tonnes of green water hitting the bridge and shuddering throughout the entire ship.
Amazing the steering of the tiny rescue ship in the last video
Phone rings: Carnival Cruises. How can I help
Me: I would like to cancel that cruise i booked yesterday for next June...😄
Hahahaha
I will never argue with fishermen about the cost of their fish ever again!!
I grew up lobstering in Maine I've been on some pretty nasty seas It's crazy to think that on a flat calm day that the ocean can turn into that you can't believe that water can move like that know what I mean
The military is one of the most 'if you don't die during this that means your practice went well'
I felt my stomach lurch a few times as I was watching these videos lol.
Yea...yall have that im good, aint no way I'll work on a ship in my life. Mad respect for those warriors out there, this is nuts 🤯🤯
