Rough sea

[kinito1]

Are the containers themselves fastened to the ship, or do they just sit there?

[ferretcat19]

@kinito1 they are lashed to the deck

[Nukethelotofthem1]

@kinito1 I loved his comment,  " That is the coolest thing I've ever seen. " I would have been terrified.

[ImCrimson]

Very cool =)

[123TauruZ321]

A normal person would panic if he saw that water storm coming towards the window.

This person: "This is the coolest thing i've ever seen" xD

[mcfurley]

that is unreal!!

say, how would someone just finishing high school get a job on one of these ships with no other qualifications?

[tr6ranger]

@mcfurley Go down to the coast gaurd station and get a "TWIC" card, and also the application for your "Marine Meriner Credential". Then start looking up jobs on offshore companies like Caldive, Int, Edison Choust, Holbreck Offshore or other boat companies. Those I list work in the Gulf. Hope this helps

[LarusLaurus]

Coffetime!  :D Nice vid!

[DaringMood]

Terrifying

[SummerTheFuzzy]

you sir have bollocks!!!

[dmc081]

don't those things fall at sea?

[LoveShootingEggs]

It Happens sometimes, but i think its pretty uncommen, but there have been stories, that people in africa found like 1000 shoes, or what else that is inside the container. :)

[leon6266]

i hate sea

[ferretcat19]

i love lamp

[leejj09]

i love desk

[andrewjustice2601]

he's like saying that's cool. I'd be like shitting my pants!

[koleradaman]

My god inheaven i hope u guys wear extra pants, almost i shit in mine :)

Thx for cool film

[SuperBigronnie]

Wow talk about totall wipe out you can't see nothing for about 10 seconds after the wave rolls down this massive container ship good filming guys !!!

[nzmc23]

cool video :) check mine out

[VolkgartenBySquirrel]

I could not quite get the scale in my mind, but is that what's called a 'hole in the ocean'? When that wave started combing I thought it was ice, but the thing kept moving! Then the water drops what looks like 50 feet in 2 seconds just before you're wearing it. That camera hand looked really steady, though.

[desertblbuesman]

Do these big ships, like smaller vessels, take the sea from a certain angles during bad storms to ease the ride, or just keep on course? This storm in the video?

[RPOLIVNICK]

1:20 is the coolest thing ive ever seen

[tp3500]

How far it it true that you see groups of ghosts yelling and running after each other in these type of situations.

[ferretcat19]

ye there were loads of ghosts going mental you just can't see them on the film

[MalikAnais]

it's just so beautiful : O

[maldaleopina]

Fantástica Engenharia Naval!!!!

[GunnerGraham]

Jeez,those lads earn every penny.

[philnottinghill]

When your ship is bigger than an aircraft carrier and you have seen her treated like matchwood on a sea from which there is no hope of survival and very close to going down down down down - from crest into trough [and alarmed her head will not come up again] - with all hands on board - you have no idea how unbelievably VIOLENT the sea can be...

[215jami]

Is that something like laying the 03 back to the 02 and the 02 back to the 01 the super being striped clean and the bow looking like a flat bottom pug dog ?

[philnottinghill]

Every ship rolls and pitches - yes, including the JAHRE VIKING!

[Farnarkler2]

I wonder more how much the Jahre Viking would roll in seas like that or is she so big and heavy that she wouldn't roll at all.

[Farnarkler2]

I'm curious. How would the Jahre Viking (ex Seawise Giant) fare in that weather considering she's half a kilometre long and weighs in at half a million tonnes deadweight.

[ferretcat19]

i'm sure it would be fine. I'd be more worried about being in a small ship rather than a massive tanker.

[kensai7gr]

Taking into considerations the equivalent pics on the Wikipedia's Beaufort scale article, these waves should be at least force 10-11.

[ferretcat19]

ye, it was gusting to force 12 at times. was one of the best experiences I have had

[sportaudirs6]

mint that gets r8 good at the end

[boricc]

Nice view! thx for posting.

>fav!

[danny1374]

Wow towards the end of the clip the sea really begins to roll with that wave breaking over the ship then the ship goes down in a trough of a wave, this does look fierce weather.

[stimexes]

The engineers who create and design mega ships like this are brilliant! Just saw mega planes on Air Force Special. 4 jet engines each the size of a pick up truck blast it into the air with 1 million pounds of Cargo within it.

[gplate]

Very cool

[thedarkocean]

Definitely some of the worst ship weather on youtube. Breaking waves all around, wind streaked waves, that spray came from the bow all the way to the stern in seconds. Yikes.

[Sjofugla]

Wow, you can see from the (big) size of your ship that those seas must be absolutely huge. I agree with frupert, they must be touching 30-40 metres?. Thanks for posting

[frupert]

those waves would have to be 40m(100ft) at least

[pekkapower]

I really hope the containers are water-proof :P

[lou5811lou]

I was on a smaller ship than that with flat bottom and we lost containers over the side during the night in the Atlantic.

[MOUNTKENNEDY]

do they strap the containers down?

[pk22cm]

They lock it to the one underneath.

[sailormarjinal]

selametle ::))

[keeston78]

That is some bad ass weather, thanks for posting this.

[ferretcat19]

go to 01:03 get lots of spray
