Biggest storm I was ever in, Super Typhoon Zelda Oct/Nov 1994 heading west on the USS Essex LHD-2, in company with the USS Ogden and USS Fort Fisher. We were taking 19 degree rolls and the smaller ships were taking 40 degree rolls. The only time I have ever been sea sick was on the USS Momsen DDG 92 heading south from Everett Washington to San Diego. Feb 2005 about 100 miles off the mouth of the Columbia River. Taking spray over the bridge and when we'd dip into a wave the entire bow, including the 5" gun would be covered by green water.
Sailed this exact location under similar circumstances. The big difference, we were plowing through at 30 knots on a U.S. Navy Aircraft Carrier. We had nearly all aircraft tied down tight down in hangarbay, and only a few copters tied down behind the island. We were taking solid water over the bow on about every third or fourth swell. From my vantage point on the bridge, it was a hell of a ride.
He didn’t say he didn’t and the carrier probably took any damage in big swells water will wash up on any ships deck and on a carrier is just rolled off and was probably fine
@@erfanraxa3223 Your right of course. There was no danger to the carrier whatsoever. But from the bridge, the visuals were amazing. Our division also had a large compartment up forward in the bow, just below the flightdeck where we kept and worked on charts. That place was like an out of control elevator during weather like this. Being goofy 22 year olds, we thought that was the coolest ride of all. Lucky no one broke a leg.
Rolf S : absolutely: my goodness’s seen swells over the bow of a carrier? Wow ! Were you guys going thru a real heavy storm like a cyclone or typhoon wherever they call it .
had a buddy of mine who served on the uss Carl Vinson aircraft carrier and he told me some stories that made me glad I joined the Army instead of the Navy. the ocean is no joke.
This music... made me feel like I was playing a James Bond video game, trying to take down the bad guys on this boat (probably hauling nuclear weapons) in the middle of a storm.
I had a very long time to see this picture (4,5 years on duty on tanker-ships until the age of 23). And yes, I remember (I actually can't forget) times where you couldn't sleep because you where falling of the bed (after hitting the wall). Thank you for bringing back these memories, (and for reminding me some of the reasons I quit that job as well.) I wish you every easiness" in your life on the sea ♥️ 👍
1:40 It looks like the ship is visibly bending as it pitches. Would be nice to hear the actual sound of the storm and steel instead of music soundtrack.
They are designed to bend and flex, otherwise the ocean would tear them apart, so it was bending. If you were below decks, you would have seen how truly scary it looks.
I must say it's very cool watching mother nature at her finest but I would have totally shit my pants when it started to rock like it did. Kudos for the people who do this for a living.
I wasn't too impressed but then I was serving at sea for 10 years. You should try being in a 3,000 ton destroyer in a sea such as this. All I saw was spray coming over the bow. More spectacular when it is green water washing down the anchor deck.
Thanks for posting this video. It shows why they usually serve good food on board such ships, to make up for being rolled around so much for so long. After a few days, that gets pretty old, I understand, but you really appreciate the good weather when you have it, like growing up in the Mid-west, then moving to the coast.
Always amazes me with these behomoths how the keel doesn't fail in these conditions!The engineering stresses must be huge! Great footage of a giant being tossed around by mother nature. Cheers.
Matrix reloaded... I was waiting for those two "ugly twins" to pop up from the deck at any moment... Nice footage, but I think the music could be a bit too much for people that are not fans of the Matrix trilogy.
Good taste in music. I got all of Juno Reactor's albums and songs. Good rolling footage. This is how the worlds goods get put in your living rooms. Remember this every time you get the latest electronic gadgets.
Just off the UK and France there is the Bay of Biscay where Deep breaking Atlantic waves can cause as much havoc as this or worse I have been thorough it in a 4.5000 dwt small cargo ship many times Thankfully it is not that often you get to roll like pin
@@aquastar7315 Many ships have a small hut on the forward end of the ship that is accessible from the tunnels that the lookout can occupy to protect him/herself from the elements.
@@dave3682 Those are open-roofed softtop canopies that make a 5 degree temperature difference. You can only find those on cargo/tankers from 1985-1992, however this ship has a small tower located on the forecastle and the only guard being railings. Its much more practical to stay in the bridge, as radars can detect objects ahead of the vessel instead of endangering crewmen.
@@aquastar7315 No, they are small outhouse sized metal shacks that usually sit at the base of a short mast on the bow and American bulkers are required to have them by the Coast Guard. I know this because I'm a Merchant Mariner and I literally work on these ships.
Neptune must have been quite angry. Bad weather is perfect for an good night sleep until you get those Low Sump alarms or sludge tank level alarms and the ME exhaust gas temps deviations. or that rolling AAA battery witch is still in your suitcase under your bunk:) Taking a shower is also always quite an experience. I guess the shaft generator was not able to maintain frequency ? Or did the vessel not had a shaft gen? tnx for sharing
Massive respect! We seldom ever stop to think that a lot of the things that make our lives so comfortable has been in large part brought to us by the boys and (presumably?) girls that have to live and work in conditions like this for days on end. The first 3 minutes of this were just about as much as I could have taken, everything after that would have had me in the foetal position on the floor, crying like a bitch! If I'd been on board she'd have gone to the bottom very quickly due to the sheer weight of the shit in my fucking pants!!!
2:20 - "struggling to keep the camera level with the horizon" - would have been interesting to see the 1st-person perspective with the camera level with the ship.
+MrGoodkat yes it is if the ship sanks it could be extremly difficult to recover the ship and to take back the cargo 5000 meters and only 1000 meters is a challenge to save a ship , the MOL confort containership crashed 4500 meters below sea waves with thousand of containers in 2013
Cory Stansbury all this technology and we still can't design a hovercraft that carries the load AND can take on the Sea?also plane woulda been easier.!
That's one hell of a video--whenever I hear of a hurricane at sea, I feel for the poor guys aboard carriers/container ships that have to ride them out. I'd imagine a Category 3 hurricane out there at sea is much worse than this video. But what you've filmed here looks severe enough to landlubbers like me! Thanks for putting these up
They were in a typhoon so far worse, far far worse please the ship imploded exploded so they would have heard the bangs as they started the process of being sucked under water
When I was in the Navy '58-'64, I served as a Radarman in "Tin-Can's" - 2100>2200 ton Destroyers. Our can was part of 8 ship squadron running the screen for the USS Hornet. We ran into typhoon one night south of Japan and our course had us quarter-beam to the waves. For hours we were rolling 20>35º - but had several rolls in the 45º range. We had an inclinometer in CIC (Combat Information Center) and I recall seeing the max roll we took - 57º - which was beyond the ships rated limit ~
Having spent a good part of my life as a professional yacht skipper I used to see ships like this pounding through the North Atlantic storms and wonder how they could survive.. what they thought while seeing a 40 ft yacht out there I'll never know, but a yacht is light, doesn't try to fight the ocean and if handled properly will deal with the conditions. Though a bit like being inside a washing machine with the program on 'cold'. During the heavy rolling section of the video, the ship appeared to be just holding steerage-way, maybe 7 or 8 kts, though difficult to assess properly from that height. Would like to know what tactics were employed. I'll bet you were sending a thank-you prayer to Mr Plimsoll.
My dad told me how they were in the eye of the storm during the Typhoon season when the japanese were transferring POWs to Japan from the Philippines in the holds of the ships. I got a whole new respect for him
Nice video, but the music is terrible and this is not "very rough" weather!. I live at 60 degrees north in the North Atlantic and this is like a millpond. I'm surprised this ship is rolling so much for such a small sea.
If water gets in a loaded hold, that water which is not absorbed by the grain will fall to the bottom tank top where it will find bilges. That water is then pumped out. Ore does not retain water. Metal fatigue is a factor, you got that one right.
Absolutely nobody . Not a single soul in any universe TH-cam : do you wanna see some cargo traveling thro north Pacific with a very shitty background music ruining the experience?

Bloody good photography! To begin with, I assumed the camera to be mounted on some kind of self-leveling gimbal. To get those shots, in that kind of movement, hand-held, was excellent.
Joe Harkins : if you in the engine room even though is very noisy already, you heard some strange noises in weather like that, my chief engineer told me the ship is flexible to a point . Scary, I don’t know about being dull, he send me to change some fixtures close to the bow, nope it wasn’t dull at all, the only noise I heard was the swells hitting that bucket of bolts , and first timers screaming lol, 365 feet fish processing vessel, little boat
Mill pond man Try the Merry Men of May in the far north of scotland just south of the shetland isles in a force 11.Three days running against the storm trying to do 15 knots and in that whole amount of time we made 24 nautical miles. We couldn't try to turn and run with the storm in case we capsized.I was the cook, and we ate sarnies for three days because it was impossible to boil a pan of water.
Interesting comparison to your clip of the LPG/C Antwerpen. The gas carrier's larger freeboard keeps the deck pretty much wave free, unlike the bulker. These waters are notorious, remember the m.v. Derbyshire went down off the east coast of Japan in 1980......... RIP to all on board.
the ocean is insanely powerful to be moving 70,000 mega tons, i used to have to sing a song in school where it said "ive got love like the ocean" the ocean aint got no love, of course i didnt even sing it, although that does look quite entertaining to be on that ship.

Sailed this exact location under similar circumstances. The big difference, we were plowing through at 30 knots on a U.S. Navy Aircraft Carrier.
