  • Tanker vessel hull inspection near Colombia coast. Air escaping from stern tube is wartsila air guard system. Aft seal in stern tube is without oil and pressurized by air. Therefore it is not possible that stern tube oil is contaminated by water. In stern tube main engine circulating oil can be used, no need to replace by VGP environmental friendly oil.

    When I was 9, my family vacationed to Carolina Beach. We got to check out the Cherry Point docks, where they load military cargo ships. My sister and I were horseplaying on the dock where two large cargo ships were moored up. At some point I fell into the water just feet away from the side of the cargo ship, and I remember rolling over and opening my eyes and seeing the blurry shape of the massive hull of the ship descending into the darkness. They quickly hauled me out of the water, but that nightmare image has stuck with me for life.

    We took a swim call off Catalina Island (southern California coast) in 1992 from the USS Ohio, SSBN 726 nuclear submarine. Me and 4 other guys were crazy/brave enough to jump in. I was surprised that it was moving! We had to swim pretty hard to get from amidships to the bow up front. We then body-surfed up onto the bow to get back aboard. No way was I going to climb up the ladder against that sinisterly-dark hull, probably crusted with sharp stuff! Damn that was scary AF. Can't believe I did that! A buddy of mine volunteered to be our shark watch. He was roped off and standing up on top of the sailing dive planes with an M14 keeping a watch out for us. Thanks buddy.
    Oh, and I almost forgot, but a pleasure boat was so curious they got within 100 yards to watch us. It's not every day you see a gigantic nuclear sub on the surface with hot dog cookouts and swimmers.

    • @jamesshunt5123
      @jamesshunt5123 3 роки тому +16

      @@betelgeuse3653 I think it's a human primordial fear tied to the time large sea creatures could devour you without a trace. Most land animals fear going into the open water - for obvious reasons because they're evolved for life on land and are mostly helpless in water. These giant ships are just floating above you and therefore subconsciously become these "large sea monsters" especially if they're covered with barnacles and algae.
      Here's another thing: If a human stands on land and sees huge trucks and such pass, or even trains of several thousand tons, they don't feel as vulnerable. Why? Because on land you can always run away from the danger. Or hide. Or seek some short of shelter and protection. In the water however... you can't swim away nowhere near as fast as you can run on land, you can't hide and there is no shelter. Human vulnerability is very apparent in water.
      When you then combine the rusty and decaying metal of ships which make them appear like "decaying corpses" it exacerbates the creepy feeling.
      So it's little surprising a human in the water can feel awfully small and vulnerable right next to a giant man-made object.
      Would you swim in a pool which was made of metal and now is rusty and decaying? It would be an unpleasant experience. Would you swim in a dark, deep pool knowing people have dumped cars there and and all kinds of metal junk which shouldn't be there? Probably not.
      Therefore swimming in water with a lot of man-made, metal objects, like a harbor or right next to a huge ship in a harbor is equally unpleasant. Even if the ship doesn't move.
      As for diving and seeing a giant ship propeller right in front of you. It's dead still, however we as humans are all-too-aware of how they work and their immense power. Obviously the very thought of thinking *how* it works is going to make a person feel uneasy under water. People instinctively jump aside or backwards whenever a wild animal like a lion suddenly lunges at them in a zoo. People don't think "this thick glass or steel cage will protect me". We just instinctively react as if we're being attacked - even though we should know we're perfectly safe from the lion.
      Perhaps this explains the reason for submechanophobia. Human vulnerability in water as a primordial fear + giant manmade metal objects in this water + said objects decaying in the water + human imagination going into overdrive driven by all this.

    It's amazing to see this in clear waters. My experience in the strait's of Malacca where it meets the South China Sea are fighting currents and dealing with low visibility.
    These vessels are so big that you can get lost at the flat bottom circling looking for light shinning from your underwater tender or the ship's vertical side, hoping and praying, whilst your tank get's critically low.
    For the time's we used surface supplied air via an umbilical, it is a cross-country goddam sprint to the bow as we address our audience of the condition and texture of the barnacles and whatever eco system that's developed on the hull via a close circuit camera, hand-held, connected to the umbilical systems, balancing between breathing and speaking into the audio system and of course pretending to be like a bloody astronaut.
    Out of 5 dives, we might bail out on one just because the currents are too strong, though we still tried, or some other fuckery. Jellyfishes perhaps.
    The thin line between life and death is stretched out into just a handful of factors including overworking and underpaid of course.
    Most of the time we're working alone under those vessels. Whether it be scuba diving with an Olympus camera in an underwater casing or scraping off the marine growth with a scraper, we're all pretty much biting down on the mouthpiece and hey o let's go.

      I allwase had a fear of deep water with random structures like tubes drains chaines and walls and wors of all.. dead body’s . It sounds dum but there just something about it being underwater that makes it so scary. Maby it’s because you have a slower reaction time, you normally can’t see it until you’re right on top of it or Maby because you normally have no idea what’s down there. It could be enything from a bike to a literal grave. The worst part about it is I can never put my finger on it so I can never pin it down. I normaly say I’m afraid of massive lumping things in the water but it’s a lot more than that

      I think there's just something about the lighting and obscuration of something huge. If you've ever seen "The Mist", that film plays around with huge creatures obscured by, well, mist; and I think it has a similar effect. Then, as you said, there's the fact that the water is not our environment. We're just more helpless there and I think we know it on a primal level when in the sea.

    i love this kind of stuff. even if i do it during the night, alone. inspecting the hull makes me feel relaxed.

    I dont know why but this doenst scare me so much. The thing that scared me the most was at 6:33 there's like a tiny hole and I thought the diver would dive into it and I got claustrophobia. XD Tight spaces are scarier to me than giant underwater things.

      My fear isn't so much of tight spaces per se, but getting stuck underwater and drowning.
      Like that poor guy who got stuck in a cave while diving
      I could do this no problem, I love ships and am familiar with vessels and boat engines. But diving or free diving in underwater caves? Tight tunnels? Heck no!

    At 7:24 is that a sacrificial anode? And why is air coming from the propeller?

    We all have to agree to the fact that titanic movie is somewhat related to us watching this video today.

    6:59 is that rust holing? Looks pretty clean but still looks like a hole.

    This is one of my biggest fears. I would never do this. Once I'm under it, might get in panic immediately. Looking inside those compartments is even scarier.😥
    This ship is huge.😳
