  • SHIVER ME TIMBERS!

  • As of this viewing, 89 people became seasick while watching this video.

  • The waves seem to be crashing on to the boat from about 17 different directions!! :-))

  • Wow... I'd like to experience rough seas like that, at least once in a lifetime!!!

  • looks like my bath after a hot curry....

  • Wow my dad was just on this and he gets sea sick in a row boat

  • Well, I see no rest stop's or bars anywhere.

    Hmmmmm..why? 

  • wind howl at 1.36.. *shudder*

  • no wonder the early explorers didn't want to go through there in those little ships

  • @theeasybeats Little ships ride on top of the waves and don't dig in and bounce so much.

  • When men were Men and gays still had to be invented?

  • @devilliers123 Way to make yourself look like an ignorant fool.

  • @paranoiaxiii Oh c'mon now, pucker up!

  • Those were some rollers!

  • I'm fucking scared D:

  • I got sea sick watching this!!!

    

  • @barticus04 Me too! My God this was terrifying on a 3' x 5' video frame. I cannot imagine living thru this. I feared for my life seeing the video. I would have been in a ball on the bathroom floor, praying for my certain death to be quick.

  • @mkatmakat that makes 2 of us!!!

  • @mkatmakat You took the words right out of my mouth...I gotta go change my underwear...

  • Imagine: An all-wood ship with no engine and no stabilizers, at the complete mercy of the wind for progress.The tossing and heaving is much worse.

    No radios, GPS, radar, or sonar.

    No sealed viewports and heating separating you from the wet, cold, and mighty roar of the wind & waves--everything is literally in your face.

    No modern medicine for seasickness...or more serious issues.

    And other particulars...lol

  • 1:27 are there Ghosts in the room? :D

  • i would have dies.of a heartattack

  • whats this ship transporting? was it a ferry??? great foootage SCARY... :D thank you

  • Can you imagine Ferdinand Magellan getting a look at this?

    It's not just the Drake Passage; most of the Southern Ocean is like this. There's a reason it's called the Roaring 40's, Howling 50's, and Shrieking 60's. And there are long-distance yachting races in which small yachts cross thousands of miles of the Southern from the Cape of Good Hope to Kerguelen and then Australia ... with huevos down to their knees ...

  • AHHRRGGG, I'm gettin queezy just watchin it !

  • Holy crap... and I felt seasick on the frerry from calais to dover, and the sund was shining and the ocean was flat like a slat desert. I´m really not born for this shit.

  • Would u be scared at all?

  • LOL 0:21 was that a drum set?

  • Rough seas suck, but the worst, for me, is the shit flying all over unless it is bolted down, or try going bathroom.

  • I found that the first full day at sea, no matter how calm, my stomach would be off - so I simply ate nothing. After that and for the next weeks my appetite was great. Work in sea air and good chow; I reveled in it. As for the weather and life under sail, read Alan Villiers. Wear wool beneath oil skin as you round Cape Horn; monkey way up and out that yard to reef sail. Think of home.

  • If I was on that ship, I would live on Dramamine!!!

  • Now imagine crossing the Drake in the James Caird... that would be terrifying.

  • getting sea sick from watching

  • east to west? or the other way?

  • It would be amazing to experience the fury of the sea on a ship like this, but my stomach would not stand it, so I have to watch these videos in my nice, steady house! The Sailors of old in their Wooden Ships must have been a very tough breed-one of the best paid jobs on the old ships was ''Carpenter'' as he and his apprentices would fix storm damaged parts of the ship. Sail looks superb, but takes manpower.

  • @Oakleaf700 Hi, I had a surface transit from Falmouth(uk) through the Irish sea and up to Icelandic Gap on P Class Diesal sub. We hit force 9-10 then it went 11-12. I stayed look out the whole watch as I would puke in the control room. We got to our operating area and dived to 300' and even then would role gently. Over 200 ships sent out SOS during this 4 day storm but could only imagine doing it 200 years ago! Also pity no video cameras in 1974!

  • @JIMBO5444 it makes me laugh when people say ''I never get seasick'' for one will never know WHEN the sea may throw up some rolly weather-from what I have heard a rolling swell is the most nauseating thing-I have read that the reason we get motion sick is that our brains think we have been ''poisoned''-for the perceptions[giddiness/disorien­tation] are identical to the early stages of plant poisonings and our brains order our bodies to ''rid'' us of the perceived toxin! [according to biologists]

  • @Oakleaf700 But not everybody of us reacts similarly to the same stimula..

  • @respaldoscero No, of course not, but unfortunately nobody is guaranteed immunity-different sea states, changes of vessel-liferafts are notorious for making even lifelong sailors nauseated.

    I personally have not actually vomited-but have felt giddy and disorientated-and this too is seasickness.And not ''my'' research, but scientific research.

  • @Oakleaf700 So according to your "research" My body is lying to me because I do not get seasick? Get some real world experience and comment again.

  • @Burnz2much Darling, we are talking about REAL seas, not a cruise up the Thames!

  • @Oakleaf700 Correct.

  • @Oakleaf700 why is it funny? If you never get seasick, you never get seasick. Its just a fact. If you've gotten seasick before than youve gotten seasick. If you have not, then you have not. Does not seem humorous to me.

  • I knew you would not be British, as the irony of the phrase ''It makes me laugh'' is lost on anyone who is not British!

  • fascinating...

    

  • hahaahahahahahaha

  • Even James Cook Said, One Of Zones With the Roughest Seas is The Drake Passage...

  • In the old days, moisten a piece of Bread and use it to stick your plate to table so it wouldn't go sliding away.

  • passage Drake?

    Paso de Hoces discover for Hoces 100 years before Drake 1st crossing....

  • sail the chilean waters isn't for childs

  • btw, what was a russian vessel doing down there near antarctica argentina? shouldn't they go thorugh the panama channel?

  • @hpatdh077

    The Drake Passage its near of The Chilean Antartic Territory, and Russia, like many countries, work there to the investment, investigation and Preservation of that Natural Reserves.

    Greetings from Chile!

  • Awesome vid! even that it's so old, just awesums!

  • I can't even image this 100yrs ago..... wooden ships  of Dana's time. Image going up the mast to reef sail in this.... tired, cold, wet, (you sleep wet) and the food is terrible....... Nuff respect to our sailors of old.......

  • look how calm they are.. I would shit on my pants :s

  • @lewo1988

    Take a look at the video "Windsurf Jaws"

  • Fake and gay

  • @ferrarimike23 LOL ~~~ yeah right. They ought to drag you on along with em on one of their "trips" then we will see who is fake and gay.

  • Just think of the old galleon ships that navigated the globe, that must have been a hell of a ride lol

  • heavy swell, no storm,thats it !

  • Conditions always rough here.....

  • Imagine the old clipper ships doing this under sail. Amazing.

  • @clarkewi LOL Yea, no doubt, going through that in a wooden ship under sail. Early explorers really had guts.

  • @HalfEatenDimSim your fake and gay!!

  • What is the name of the ship?

    

  • @Classified978 MV.chuck norris

  • What is the name of the ship

  • This makes me respecting more the incredible task for sailers on wooded ships some hundred years ago...Without electronical equipment, everything is wet, without stabilisators...respect

  • @tausendstein Thats why most would die, and the ones who survived were just plain lucky.

  • @tausendstein "without electronic equipment" includes no weather forecasting. You were seriously taking your life in your hands by going out to sea back then....

  • @tausendstein  That explains why Rodney Dangerfield never became a sailor...

  • @tausendstein they were crazy

  • @tausendstein: Not to mention that they also had to beat (tack) their way through the strait, not like this ship was doing going dead to windward. It took them over 4 weeks at times to beat to windward against the wind and current. Imagine doing that for 4 weeks with no heat, no shelter or even warm food. (not that eating would have been much of a priority in those seas).

  • @tausendstein And the first of them were portuguese... Respect... that shows people how portugal went from good to bad

  • last one in is a chicken!

  • @DubbleTrubbleBubble just never go in, then you can't be a chicken

  • are they seriously just sitting in there eating?

  • This video is actually very relaxing.

    I bet it wasn't for the people on board, though

  • I plan to do this with my 25footer...and save me from your bitching...yes I know I could die...but hey: Life without risk is not worth living:)

  • @u010 what type of boat have you got?

  • Shackleton crossed this in the James Caird.......a 22' long open boat. If you haven't read about his adventure then it's well worth a read. It was maybe the greatest boat crossing in history?

  • automatic courtain....I want one...

  • automatic courtain....I want one...

  • woohoo ill get the tinny out :)

  • Watch this while listening to Pearl Jam's "Oceans"

    AMAZING

  • xeniacolours: The Drake Passage is located between Cape Horn (Chile) and the antartic peninsula

  • @RodalYutt So your saying they are going from Chile to down right cold. :)

  • Schon krass..... Ist das ein Kreuzfahrtschiff?

  • No Candy Ass Pirates in these waters.....arghhh!

  • @reefrunner9 these guys are the real pirates

  • i am distributing this video to my fellow pirates & soon to be pirates for their education.

    Pirate Ozark

  • @SuzanneBerry9600 lmao, wrong Drake you stupid advert bot...

  • @SuzanneBerry9600 LOL! wrong drake you stupid peice of shit xD go advertise retards somwhere else

  • currently sailing past Cape Horn in nice weather. Very lucky

  • Normal Drake passage. This is Professor Multanovskiy ship.

  • Best? Song Ever !!!!!! 

  • awesome? video da bomb!!!!! :D

  • And I thought hanging on to the deck crossing the Irish Sea in a gale was wild!

  • nice sound everithings go down

  • @manyphantom14 Get off the internet and go learn english you loser. You fucking uneducated peasant.

  • wind made creepy sounds in this video

  • Cozy!

  • In what month was this passage made?

  • Been there, done all that on the Vavilov but the weather was so bad, they kicked us off the bridge. About 50% of the passengers failed to make breakfast next day. Exciting stuff.

  • cool video, thank you for naturale sound,

    (so nice to see without music)

  • the thing is, it never looks as bad on video as it is at sea, the day seems a bit rough but listening to the crew, its just an average rough day at sea. the wind allows howls at sea on heavy weather day. A well found ship such as this has no problems. the crew sure dont seem worried.

  • extra seasick

  • what are those round things on the window in the bridge? On this ship there appears to be two of them.

  • Damn now imagine if you were in a leaky wooden piece of shit....

    imagine how the first explorers felt

  • you have a better chance escaping a california prison

  • I can only - faintly - imagine what that must be like at night! 

  • @ProximitySymbol

    wow dangerous place! my mediterranea sea is more cozy

  • where is drake passage?

  • I love the sound of the wind.

  • imagine what that would do to an open viking ship! even Odin couldnt save them!

  • 2.16 beautiful girl

  • nice vid. also some footage of the inside :-). But this looks more like forse 7 than a 10 to me....

  • That wind sounds a little scary 0.0

  • I don't know if I would be brave enough to sit through a storm like that onboard a huge vessel, even though you'd be safe.

  • this might be unsinkable ship cuz everyone is so damn cool ?!

  • so someone like that elen McArthur who went round the world in her catamaran , did she go through these parts of the ocean? a catamaran would be destroyed by one of these rogue waves i think . I know they are made in a way to withstand such forces but still

    ..being alone in one of these storms must be frightening.

  • I guess it's that time of month for mother nature...

  • Looks like the kind of seas that would love to break the spine/frame of the boat and cause it to sink.

  • LOVED this video thanks for making it!

  • damn.... scary :/

  • it is pacific ocean?

  • This waves does not look big. Like a usual storm. Have you check movie Perfect storm.

  • @MusicListener5 i dont know what youre talking obout, your obviously a city slicker. these waves are at LEAST 19-24 ft.

  • @MusicListener5 Dude that's a movie. It's glorified. These are real waves, and they are huge and dangerous. If you were out there you would see and feel differently while the boat is literally flying completely airborne cresting over every wave.

  • fuck hard.....situation very hardcore...........que foda véio....os caras devem ter se borrado inteiro.....

  • I can do it, Swimming!

  • not shabby sea at all

  • Spectacular.

    This is both majestic and scary at the same time.

    Nature is awesome, isn't it?

  • sweet video 5*'s. I love the open sea. It's so powerful. I would be out there with all of you on that ship in a heartbeat given the chance. Ships to me are the only real link to past explorers. I love them.

  • im a nautical student.. 8z so risk ayt? but im ready... -p

  • im scared..

  • excelent! all of you ar very brave for staying there!

  • Hard to believe any ships can get through those waves. Great video.

  • byłem tam to było straszne

  • its really beautiful tho :)

  • I've had rougher baths and bigger seas in my morning cup of tea....

  • AHAHAHAHA!!!! the very first google add on this vid for me was 25% off Arctic cruises!!

  • That's because google's algorithms match ads with web page content.
