The first time that I crossed the Atlantic Ocean from the Caribbean to Portugal, was on an 18 meter sailboat, and we were caught in a tropical storm halfway to the Azores, 10-15 meter swells, nothing even close to the size of the monsters here in your wicked awesome video. I remember how my thighs hurt from shifting around at the helm, getting pummeled by spray. I was too stupid to know or care how much danger we were in, and its probably best, because I remember it being an exhilarating experience. Again, great video!
I've watched this six or seven times since it was posted, love it. Thank you for not putting any music over it, love the sound of the wind, and the creaking of the ship. I love the ocean and wish that I had chosen a career at sea. 0deg water and -4deg air temp, with the wind howling I'm sure it felt like -20!
My worst nightmare.Falling overboard in these conditions.When I watch videos like these i can't help but think the depth of the ocean and all the scary creatures that live in it.
Falling overboard is no option, it would be certain death in this cold condition. The creatures in the sea would mostly leave you alone. I have a video were we saved a boy drifting in warmer sea for many hours: ua-cam.com/video/H9cFzhDjpHw/v-deo.html
@@Wolfgang227 It is almost always certain death. I was with Woermann as AB on log ships for several years in the 1970s. One day in the gulf of guniea, during lunchbreak I slipped on a log and fell to the gangboard. I was just able to hold on there at a chain, otherwise I would have gone overboard. Someone would have missed me after noon at the earliest, because at that time only the officer on watch was on the bridge. It doesn't matter how warm the water is, you'd almost certainly be dead.
@@polkanet - Thanks for sharing your experience. I was on Woermann Sambesi in the 70s. We picked her up in Japan and loaded in the Philippines and later in West Africa.
@@Wolfgang227 I'm happy to hear about it. I was on Kariba for the first time in 1974 at Woermann as an OS and then consistently on P-ships at the western coast until the end of the 70s. Then I passed for Cape Continental in South Africa. After that, I stopped going to sea at the beginning of the 80s. To put it literally, I have had to deal with logs for almost all of my time at sea. Before Woermann, I did my training in parcel logging in Northern Europe.
Amazing Video Sir. Thanks for the effort. Can't find words to describe the hardships that you sailors come across in this ship journey. Stay blessed. Finally it would be great thrill on one hand and nail biting moments on the other hand without knowing what the fate would hold. Great job and tremendous amount of patience.
it's great and mesmerizing... but only because I can watch on UA-cam. I'd be very frightened in real life. Those guys securing the logs in these wind do such dangerous work, damn. Thanks for sharing.
love these videos, ocean, sound of the storm and sea, the ship creaking gives you some strange feeling, the view, the wind, reminds me of how calm and relaxing a stressful environment in nature makes you feel.
Juli Montis Agreed. I almost fell asleep watching it, Not because it’s boring, mind you. It reminds me that dangerous situations often seem to move in slow motion. The sounds and slo-mo ice blue waves put me to sleep.
Amazing. I saw the first version. I can feel the cold. That s award way to earn a living. Thanks so much for making this and positing it. I always spare a thought for seafarers on bulks and tankers especially. Safe sailing to you. :-)
u guys are so brave, imagin a world without cargo ships, and imagin what it was like to sail in a galleon ship in that kind of weather, does waves are amazin
Wolfgang227 awwww thank you for watching some of my videos. I made some funny skits that younger people won’t understand. I have a dry sense of humor. 😀
And people before the 20th century did this in smallish wooden ships under sail with, by our standards, rudimentary navigation, poor food, cramped, uncomfortable and unsanitary conditions. Even now it’s dangerous, but then it must have been terrifying for many.
Nice to see the real deal and not what is portrayed on the reality shows. I have been running long line vessels up and down the Atlantic coast for the past 20 years and had my ass handed to me more times then I want to count. Stay safe out there, cheers from L.B.I.N.J.
These sights and sounds are both terrifying in their power and scale, and beautiful in that they connect us to this universe that we are not in, but are a connected part of existentially. Carl Sagan put it better. But this video is the same as staring out into the cosmos. Awesome.
I was with Woermann-lines on the Logs trip from West Africa to Europe for more than six years in the 1970s as an AB. At the beginning I was still on ships with conventional loading gear. Everything had to be rerigged for many kilometers before it could be loaded. The vessels on that route were then lateron equipped with cranes. We had a very heavy gale in the Bay of Biscay and the cargo shifted. Then we had to catch the logs in the hatch with iron chains. That was incredibly dangerous. The logs weighed at least 10 tons, some significantly more. Fortunately, I have never experienced a serious accident among our people. Unfortunately, in Africa I saw deaths several times during loading work.
@@clarenceAbel-rx6pr Let me recall, Vinnen in the early 70th they had Margarethe, Adolph and one more ..... I just can´t remember, Is that so ? Are you by accident Henning Puvogel ? Vinnen was one of the strong options for me, when I deciced to leave trips of northern europe for good with destination to west africa.
What’s the regular vibrating / rattling sound that you can hear in the first half of the video? Is that the propellor coming out of the water as the ship rises and falls?
The propellor will not come out of the water if the ship is fully loaded, only if the ship is empty. The noise you are referring to, I think is from the disintegrating sunroof.
May I ask what your job on the ship is/was? Also: I watched videos of the 2011 and 2013 tsunamis hitting japan, of volcano erruptions, earthquakes, avalanches ... they barely begin to capture the raw and uncontrollable power nature exerts on us. I always wish I was there the moment it happened. To take in the atmosphere, the unimaginable presence and power ... and I am always in awe how the human mind can protect itself from going mad from the sheer madness of what's happening. You can not grasp it. The beauty, the power, the unrelenting and unconcerned force. I would love to ... edit: The wind sounds like hundreds of people screaming in terror not far away. Eerie. Beautiful.
Probably the engineers more on edge than anyone else, making sure the ME keeps running and doesn't trip overspeed. I can hear the automation alarms going off a few times here.
When i was young sailor/navigator on cargo ships in the90's(should also add stupid) i somehow enjoyed the storms...it was beautiful. Back then i was never scared, but pretty sure today would think differently if would still remain sailing......
Hallo Wolfgang, tolle Videos. Macht euch das Wetter nichts aus? Ich wurde mal Seekrank nur von Calais nach Dover und konnte nur liegen. Liebe Grüße vom Bodensee.
Danke freut mich wenn dir die Videos gefallen. Doch, das Wetter zerrt schon an den Nerven und das ständige balancieren ist schon anstrengend und ermüdend. Auch war diese Reise sehr gefährlich und hätte beinahe unsere letzte sein können.

Ohne Ruder in diesem Wetter, wären wir untergegangen.

Salors also risking their lives for lashing up the logs to make sure they are securely secured before sailing out of the port . I have been watching this activities for a almost 10 years before assigned to work in the office shipping department of a log exporting company
I am so sorry about your loss, we did pick up over 40 Vietnamese boat people around 1985 on the way from Singapore to Taiwan. The Taiwanese refused to take them or forward them to any location, they put military guards at the ship and no one was allowed to put a foot ashore. That was quite a shock for the Vietnamese refugees, we sailed back, passing the same place where we picked them up and headed for Singapore, who was willing to allow them ashore and transfer them to the USA, to find a new home. They were a few weeks on our ship, a few children and even a baby, it was a nice time for us and a challenge to accommodate and feed all those people. I hope they all found a new safe home as we never heard of them again. I have a few pictures, unfortunately of poor quality, you can look if you like, I posted them on Google photos for you.

It’s deceiving. When ships in harbor it’s massive. But when at sea and waves are 40 ft high ship looks small. I am still amazed that when the ship breaks a wave it doesn’t nose dive and sink.
I know a case, long time ago, when a container vessel nose dived in the Atlantic and sunk and all the crew with one dog have never been seen again. It was a new design with accommodation in front of the vessel. As no witness survived and the reason of the disappearance was not known, a model of the ship was built and thoroughly tested in a specialised testing facility (www.hsva.de), simulating the weather condition during the disappearance and it was found, when the vessel nosedived under such a condition, it did not come up anymore. After this was revealed, such a design was abandoned.
@@Dbodell8000 Oh yes, there are several port at the Columbia river were logs are exported to China, Korea and Japan. In one of my videos you can see the loading port: ua-cam.com/video/sa4OUHzinEs/v-deo.html
I couldn't imagine bobbing around in that sea in a survivors suit if you had to abandon ship. It would be alright though if I had my UA-cam videos with me , haha. Great video.
Glad to hear that, it is important in life to do what you like to do, what makes you happy, what gives you pleasure, there will certainly also be some downtime, but that is how we grow and what makes us more strong. Wishing you good luck.
Those logs are putting on quite amount of snow and ice, is the adding weight something the crew needs to keep an eye on or does these kind of ships have alot of headroom looking at weight and balance?
A certain amount of ice, snow and rain accumulation is put into account while loading the vessel to leave space for the additional weight. So on this kind of vessel, there is nothing to worry about. I have been on an oil tanker going to Canada were so much ice was building up on the forecastle that the ship started listing and the crew had to go forward to reduce the ice with the help of ice picks and steam.
Ex Royal Navy here. This was excellent ships handling by the captain and bridge officers. Just riding over the waves at a couple of knots, not ploughing through like some captains. I know what it's like to be in heavy seas. Anybody not required, bed down. Except for the cooks who always had to turn too.😁
Yes, because we steer exactly into the storm to avoid any rolling, only a degree deviation would cause the ship rolling and the big pile of logs to go overboard as happened to a ship a hundred miles ahead of us. After the storm we went back to our original heading. photos.app.goo.gl/ThzyS3spyZmNN4M56
Yes, right, also the center window on the bridge got broken, you can see it tight up behind the wheelhouse. And the replacement glass has another color. As it is a safety glass it did not fall apart, but we could not see through anymore.
This is a new ship an his first voyage and cannot fall apart. It happened in the past, that some old corroded ships broke apart, since then more stringent rules and checks have been imposed and it will happen extremely rare. I have a video in my channel where it is launched: ua-cam.com/video/6LVdr460IP8/v-deo.html
@@Wolfgang227 I don't know why? It showed nothing but professionalism. I hope people appreciate what risks other people have to go through for our everyday items. Well done.

Ex Royal Navy here. This was excellent ships handling by the captain and bridge officers. Just riding over the waves at a couple of knots, not ploughing through like some captains. I know what it's like to be in heavy seas. Anybody not required, bed down. Except for the cooks who always had to turn too.😁
So really big waves sir jan..this time is having a storm?
36:36 - What pay rate would you require to do this work? Those logs are coated with ice.
Not that much, less than 2k US for the crew, officers about double.
thanks for full version
You are welcome, I still cut about half an hour, I felt it would be too long.
Thanks!

Greed on the part of shipping companies puts these vessels and their crew in harms way vs. changing or altering course.
I was trying to figure out what species of tree those white logs were from, then I realized that it was ice covering those logs. LOL 🤪
The struggle across the ocean, is very challenging and horrible..hopefully safely reach the destination.
Thank you for your concern, so far we have always reached our destination.
The crew securing the logs that got loose - were they wearing safety gear that would keep them from being washed overboard? It didn't look like it.
They did wear some iron spikes clamped to the shoes to avoid slipping on the logs.
Something about your ship? Looks very steady
Yes, because we steer exactly into the storm to avoid any rolling, only a degree deviation would cause the ship rolling and the big pile of logs to go overboard as happened to a ship a hundred miles ahead of us. After the storm we went back to our original heading.

You don't fear with this bigger waves?? Is dangerous for the boat, he can broken?? Sorry for my English, I'm French. ✌️😋🌊🌧️🚢
Yes, the waves were a bit scary, but a good designed and built ship will not break in such a storm.
Very good video!!
Thank you, there are some more videos of that ship in my channel.
I just hope they all made it to port safe.
Lo mejor de este vídeo es el sonido del mar
Gracias por tu comentario
This would scare the absolute sh&t out of me.
👍👍🔥🔥A good thing the Ship's🚢structure is stronger than the Crews Sunroof🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿
Yes, right, also the center window on the bridge got broken, you can see it tight up behind the wheelhouse. And the replacement glass has another color. As it is a safety glass it did not fall apart, but we could not see through anymore.
I wonder where all these timbers came from the USA?
From Portland, Oregon, there is a lot of forest there, at least till now.
Salute to the captain of the ship!
Thank you Rose.
Salute to the crew. They have to carry thev burden, risking their lives.
Fantastic.
Now pack 60+ people in a 15th century 60 foot wooden sail boat built like a cork and sail across the Atlantic to get to America..... 😊😊
mi respeto para los capitanes y los trabajadores del barco gran olas como mueve el barco y es barco grande mucha suerte
Gracias por tu comentario.
🤩 Amazing!! Can the ship fall apart??
This is a new ship an his first voyage and cannot fall apart. It happened in the past, that some old corroded ships broke apart, since then more stringent rules and checks have been imposed and it will happen extremely rare.
I have a video in my channel where it is launched: ua-cam.com/video/6LVdr460IP8/v-deo.html
Yes they can and have. SS El Faro over loaded and poor condition broke in half all crew of 33 all lost.

Good video,
In which company you are working?
I better not tell, the company does not like I put this video on the internet, they asked me to remove it.
@@Wolfgang227 I don't know why? It showed nothing but professionalism. I hope people appreciate what risks other people have to go through for our everyday items. Well done.
@@brettlehman1114 Thank you, your comment is highly appreciated.
Good job and very interesting video ! Can I use some frames for my non-commercial music video ? I will show the links to your video and your youtube channel.
How long did the storm last? Was their any damage?
The storm did last only a few days. In another video you can see some of the damage: ua-cam.com/video/8-akpeMfbpk/v-deo.html
There are pieces of ice in the sunroof sir jan
