Storm waves at the Horn from our cabin

Taken through the cabin window on deck 4 of the Prinsendam. We were in hurricane strength winds on the day we got hit by two rogue waves. I used the video option on the Canon S3 IS digital still camera.

you shoulda run up to the deck with your surfboard ... tied a rope to something solid

then screamed "SURFS UP!" and jumped in held onto the rope and surfboarded beside the ship!

A hurricane at the Horn is a lot wilder than this.

I agree that waves can feel bigger than they seem. Ive been on cargo ships rolling 30degrees to each side while the "waves" (called swell) where three meters. Its all about where the waves hit the ship and the ration between the wavelength and the ship. This would not happen on cruise ships due to the fact that cruise ships got stabilizer fins which is meant to reduce rolling like this.
