  • try swimming lol

  • don't be afraid, it's just a bit water...

  • FAKE

  • I didn't know this kindof shit was for real

  • yep, officially a big fat pussy!

  • Oh, hellll no son!

  • @TheRooster602 haha exactly my thoughts.

  • BTDT...

  • The crazy thing about this is someone is filming it!!

  • I love this. It scares the crap out of me every time I watch it, even though i know what happens. The spooky music doesn't help me calm down, either.

  • Surfs up lads.

  • omg omg its sinking

    ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhh shut up and run

  • @titanic29895 Run where?

  • just imagine doing this 300 years ago in a wooden ship with little to no navigation and no idea if you were going to hit land or not.

  • @chugs1984 The Portuguese did that 600 years ago, on wooden ships and within 100 years they traveled all around the world, to Japan, Australia and even America (way before Colon)

  • @Migus29 And the danish vikings did it before the portuguese, just in open boats.

  • @ckface12 Yeah, but the vikings did not know what they were doing, they could not repeat the journey as they had no navigation means. If you want to go that way, the Polynesians did it before the vikings. Going somewhere and being able to register the position on a map and study the trade winds, that's something much harder.

  • @Migus29 Oh yeah?

    Who then invented starboard and portside? Why do you think starboard is called "star"board? They navigated by the stars (the north star being the most common one). Most basic navigation comes from the vikings (i.e. everything that does not require a GPS, an ECDIS and a couple of electronic sea charts).

    Styrbord och babord (Starboard and portside) comes from the vikings...

    There are still today more scandinavian offcers than any other region in the world.

  • @itix1 Damn, you got a really good chauvinist brainwash. Do you know what "navigate by the stars" even mean? Knowing where North is won't do you a thing. You need to be able to calculate latitude and longitude. That's how maps are made. Latitude calculation was developed by the Greeks and the Arabs and then simplified by the Portuguese. That requires stars or the sun. Longitude requires a very accurate watch. Chronometer, Sextant, compass. None developed by the vikings.

  • @Migus29 I am aware that they did not have none of those instruments (some of which were developed by chinese).

    Still they managed to "guess" accurately enough to sail to america and back, many times, long before Amerigo Verspucci and Christopher Colombus. It is named Wineland in history because of the wine grapes that grew there.

    Vikings mostly followed the cost or used crude methods to measure offdrift and stuff like that, but it worked because they sailed to iceland and back for 400 years.

  • @itix1 I've found a website that explains pretty good how the vikings navigated and why the vikings did not take unnecessary and uncalculated risks, but youtube won't let me post it. Just google viking navigation.

    BTW, I know about calculating latitudes and longitudes. My father is a 1st officer like many in my family (I sort of broke the code by becoming an engineer, but hell, I still know a bit about it)

  • @Migus29 You are forgetting Great Spirit, who clearly brought them where they wanted and needed to go. You simple minded dimwit.

  • @chugs1984 The true explorer defined by you. Let's go !

    

  • This vid is so old it should be put to rest. With respect, I like it, but enough is enough..

  • Is there anyone here like me who thinks this would be the most fun a person could have?

  • I could surf that.. On a Wavejet...

  • Yes for sure.I intended to make my move to sea

  • the sea has no mercy

  • Lots of chum buckets got filled that day.

  • CAN YOU AMAGINE ALL THE ENERGY WE COULD GET IF WE HARNESS THOSE WAVES

  • @MrVampiredog

    I M A G I N E

  • @BobVidler THANK YOU PROFESSOR. OH BY THE WAY SUCK A HARD ONE.

  • Great footage! 

  • North Atlantic?

  • No matter what we humans do, Mother Nature will always be on top.

  • Not enough money in the world... God bless those who brave these conditions (Coast Guard / Navy) to keep us all safe.

  • @rtpchoruslead Better Pay, legitimate benefits, and not getting screwed on my gi bill would have been nice. Blessing cant justify slaving away for a congress loyal to everyone but its own citizenry. I love the sea, but the Navy... I did so much for the Navy, and for what?? A letter of commendation? Some metal? An honorable discharge? Underfunded VA healthcare "for life"? What a joke. I should have married while in, then I could have lived off base, made 4x as much, ETC...

    /sigh

  • what is this, a movie??

  • Challenge Accepted.

  • @gameperson119 haha! your one of the few guys who actually wanna try this like me!

  • wooweee...i am one of the biggest pussies around ......after the vid i took a large piss and got scared of the wave in the toilet

  • fuck that shit in the ass hole

  • Did I see chuck norris doing a backstroke there in the middle of that last huge wave.!?

  • 1:05 Just wow..... I just shit myself

  • this makes the deadliest catch look like fly fishing.....

  • I want to book the next available cabin for a cruise.

  • I feel sorry for the tea boy

  • The perfect storm

  • @msigler78 they r nt sissies

  • now do it in a sailing boat lol

  • @swiwi86 It's insane both my bros do this in yachts one has done the trans atlantic crossing in a small yacht, some days seas so rough 40+ ft waves, crew so blue he had to sail it single handedly. That's me bros! Now our older brother still now in his 60's is about to set out to sail from Mex to Australia in 2-3 mos. Our Father was same he was director general of 1976 Sailing Olympics Canada they all love the sea was same OMG its in my blood but not my idea of fun. Horses,diving,nature are.

  • Ok I'm one of those pussies!

  • The clip is taken from "Oceans"

  • Who was taking the video?

  • is this a movie?

  • @xnocf they go about 20-2 knots on the larger sized vessels

  • i always wonder what's the actual pseed they go on these, i mean it looks they are still and just bouncing back and forth.

  • Damn. That's insane.

  • Nop not for sissies, the ocean is alive and uncontrollable!!!

  • I had been in seas like this twice in my life while in the US Navy. NOT fun.

  • @bonaytothebonay Me too, but I enjoyed it. Are you a member of the Green Gill Club?

  • i got sick watching this. imagine being in that ship.. :O

    

  • hey ouai french sailor and fisherman's french!!!!

  • mother of god

    

  • This is part of a documentary. But it still shows the reality of what happens out there in the sea. These storms are real.

  • Comment removed

  • i still can't understand the physics behind why the ship doesn't sink !

  • @smartdon007 positive displacement....it's like a big steel bubble

  • @smartdon007 Wiki --> Metacentric height :)

  • @smartdon007 I dont either but been in sea like that twice, once on a sufaced sub and once on a Leander Class Frigate and was a little worried but while your water tight your all right

  • Them seas is a peace o cake for rubber ducky

  • Thank you for the description. It revealed everything...

  • Nice camera angle , Thats REALISTIC.

  • This is when you hope you've got a good builder, and there aren't any bad welds...

  • That's some pretty big sea right there.

  • holy shit that wave at the end.. :)) can never underestimate the seas and rivers...

  • whats so bad about this i swim in water like this when i go fishing ;)

  • this boat looks strange...

  • @A1234567890J1 its because its designed to be in these conditions, its a research vessel. 

  • @philateliceun it looks like it would sink lol, must be very buoyant.

  • @A1234567890J1 I know. Either the aspect ratio is of or that ship is very top heavy. :S

  • Thumbs up if you study nautical science.

  • @ROBERTTHESCEPTIC go get laid

  • Real men take rubber dingies out in that shit.

  • @xNEXTxHEROxPLEASE NO DUMB MAN WOULD DO THAT

  • BURP

  • Can you say HOLY HEAD SEA!! I would LOVE to take that ride!

  • subs are for sissies

  • How or should i say who took this amazing footage. Awesome and I am sure there is an interesting story behind it. Would appreciate any more info if you have it. Videoographer, where when .

  • been weather like that going down to the falklands was one of the worst storms I've ever been in but it was fun watching the lads playing NAAFI olympics lol. there is no way this is computer generated

  • Vitus Bering and his Russian crew sailed across the Bering sea in 1728 with the largest ship built for the Pacific fleet, the St. Gabriel: An astoundingly large 60 feet long, and 20 feet wide, and 44 men. It must have made Splash Mountain feel lame in comparison.

  • This is just so freaking epic... I don't know what else to say lol

  • that must be horrid pea soup anyone

    

  • Over easy eggs anyone?

  • U have no idea how badly I want to be there ;D

  • gigantisch!

  • I reckon I'd get a bit seasick there...

  • Comment removed

  • I tottaly respect the sea...im not Laura dekkar. I would piss my pants out there, and im a grown up guy!

  • computer generated  BULLSHIT

  • @2hatelibs1 I'm a fisherman on the great lakes buddy and I know first hand what it is like to be in weather like that whether it's on the ocean or the Great lakes I've saw shit you couldn't even begin to imagine pal it takes guts and passion to do what we do be it a fisherman or a sailor on a ship so take your computer generated bullshit comment somewhere else because you have no fucking clue what your talking about! go for a ride sometime you'll see how computer generated it is? NOT!

  • @Nuclearrc Although the sea/lakes are dangerous places and stuff like this is possible, this certain video is from a movie and is fake.

  • @GriffinAirsoft what is fake about this video???

  • @TheNiradulovic It is computer-generated and is from a movie.

  • @GriffinAirsoft no it isnt fool....

  • Comment removed

  • @GriffinAirsoft this is a deep sea salvage tug......if this is comp generated then i want to know who owns the software....look at it for gods sake....BT THE WAY I WAS 3RD OFFICER ON THIS VIDEO....SO....TOUCHE I THINK.

  • @GriffinAirsoft : You need to shut up, you are very stupid.

  • @GriffinAirsoft You are a bad person.

  • @GriffinAirsoft : Another idiot, where do you guys come from?

  • @GriffinAirsoft And the name of this movie is ....?  Yeah, I didn't think so.

  • keen to be in this weather !

  • it's much better in HD...

  • @kwasnr I am in the digital backwater so I'm glade to get any video at all.

  • This is from the Disney documentary "Oceans"... the first few mins...

  • metal vs water

  • Holly shitballs!

  • this could be a Navy recruitment add :)

  • 0:34 is beautiful. it looks like the ship is rising from the ocean floor with lots of smoke

    and vthemusic matches perfectly

  • Was the vanilla pudding salvaged?

  • Oh i miss the rough seas. Wish I was on that ship

  • great footage,

    how was it filmed?

  • @alsationwolfdogs hellicopter

  • ship hauling vanilla pudding. lost it,s load right before that what the white stuff is

  • Holy crap! I'd like to see how it managed to survive that wave at the end! That was like the wave in The Perfect Storm.........yikes!!

  • Feel sick just watching from behing a computor desk

  • fucking ay m8! seen bigger waves in ma toilet after takeing a shit.

  • What's all that white stuff?

  • @SoggyBottomBoy101

    Sea foam and bubbles.

  • @SoggyBottomBoy101 the white stuff is called by nautical people white horses i believe

  • is this real?

  • puke material

  • 0:22 the view of my youth...

  • @NorStarReviews awesome youth

  • unbelievable footage

  • Been there, done that. Totally exhausting.

  • who fucking filmed this

  • @cardinalmustang99 I was thinking the same thing. The camera doesn't seem to be moving, almost like it was filmed from a helicopter.

  • @mlcoo17 the last bit of the vid might of been as the ship at the end was a warship with a flight deck but tbh i don't think any skipper in his right mind will launch a helo in that weather it would be lashed down in the hanger

  • reminds me of the destroyer captain who disobeyed Halseys order to leave area of typhoon and saved many lives of two destroyers that are overturned and sunk during the storm..i was on a cruiser in the pacific in 1971 and it gets hairy...

  • That's mental !

  • "Yea were badass"

  • How can 3 people dislike this?

  • @fightco 3 people are afraid of water.

  • id be shitting myself!

  • i have seen bigger waves in the toilet

  • @iery68 I was on-board the USS Bauer, DE-1025 when we ran into a storm off the West coast, I was suppose to do gunnery practice on the AA 40mm at the fan-tail, It was scrubbed for bad weather, I recall the OJ dispenser in the Mess tilting a full 45% side to side. The mountains of water outside our vessel was quite a sight.

  • ive been on seas that big its a ride and you cant think about it you have to roll with the ship and learn to stand up all over again its not a reguler sea its so rough you dont have time to be seasick and if you do get seasick youll be glad you did the other option is passing out and not good to do in that kinda sea you could be washed overboard before anyone knows your missing they would never find you with seas that big i love this video its so awesome

  • Looks fun >.<

  • The navy ship, I think a destroyer, I'm pretty sure that's from a movie.

    I remember seeing it somewhere.

    You could definitely count me a sissy.

    You have to be a special person to want to be a sailor.

  • i love the sea

  • 3 people tried this in a bathtub

    

  • suicide

  • People risking their lives so American kids can get their skinny jeans.

  • Why aren't ships that go through these sea's more square shaped? Or why don't they have some extendible pontoon type things on the sides to keep them from flipping?

  • @BallsInYourJawsBitch its not going to go very fast if its a square. and
