  • Atravessar o mar é perigoso não para qualquer um !

  • sluiting ??

    is het niet IP onderzee proef?

    mooie video

  • Mooi filmpje. Bedankt meneer Vollebregt. Ook voor de andere mooie filmpjes.

  • Looks like a force 10. My name gives away what I've been in and that was in a 68ft yacht. 97knts it topped out at. The Biscay in a foul mood is a horrid place to be. So, hats of to the guys who do this for a living. Great video. Thanks

  • don t fall in the drink

  • Шторм 4-5 баллов, для Биская норма ...

  • What an AWESOME sight! thank you for posting

  • Wow! Interesting!

  • God Bless the men on these ships...I got the shivers when I watched this video

  • Just another day at the office.

  • that a water spout in the backround or a rainbow??

  • Well done, men! I consider it's important for common people (Politics included) to know how hard can become to carry goods for them, mainly for crews. BTW, my certificate, according SCTW, says 'Chief Officer', so I guess you know what we are speaking about. Nice day and, why don't? nice life.

  • Good points. People take it for granted that they can have the stuff they want, without thinking of the effort taken to get it to them over the seas.

    The colours are beautiful in this video, I think. Better than on land.

  • this thing has gotta be major stabilized. cause the roll is actually quite livable

  • i got caught in bicaye on a 60 mtr dutch coaster in that weather, that's how the bay of biscaye is most of the time

  • Im gonna be sick!

  • i was on this kind of ship my last contract and i also caught biscay like this, nice video mate

  • I've been on one of those sort of ships,the one I was on was a cargo holder but when they're empty their top heavy to when you get rough waves the front tips up and they always roll to the side like that,and it's seriously scary because you think they're going to tip.

    I went on one of those ships once and i'm not doing it again,at least not for a very long time *hats off to those brave people who make those crossings regularly*

  • If you want to see even more massive waves, take a look at the video of the ship crossing Drake's Passage (video up on youtube).

  • Arrgh! No sea to rough;No Muff to tough !

  • Loved it, what is the round thing on the window ?

    I would have barfed by now, if I was there.

  • The round thing on the window is a storm screen. In severe weather an electric motor spins the round glass very fast keeping the glass clear of sea spray and rain therefore maintaining some visibility when the windows are obscured.Much better than a windshied wiper.

  • WTF? I was always under the impression that was a DF.

  • Excellent video, how long does weather like that last?

  • incredible power!

  • Beautiful.

  • Firemen are nothing!! these guys who do this day in day out are really brave. I'd climb a rock face, jump from a plane, bungee from a bridge pretty much anything. But i'd never be a sailor. So i guess i'm just half pussy!. :-)

  • @jimbob6791 Keep in mind that they are firemen as well! If fire breaks out in these weather conditions: What to do? Call the volunteer fire dept. from the next village, 2000 miles away? And they never know, what's inside the containers. The bad guys use to declare weapons and ammunition as "engine parts" or "used gas lighters". How to deal with the individual burning container? Or just abandon the ship? Jump into THESE waves...? It's the toughest job in the world, when bad comes to worse!

  • Wonderful!
