I always love lighthouses growing up here in Virginia I have seen some here but will love to travel around the world and see others thanks for the videos on lighthouse
Lighthouses are breathtakingly beautiful. I felt really sad when you said "if a lighthouse falls in a remote island will it make a sound?" well...I guess the heydays of lighthouses is officially over.
Hi, I did the painting of the huge wave hitting St. George Reef Lighthouse and am curious how you acquired it. I love offshore lighthouses and found this interesting. Tillamook Rock, Miles Rocks, Cape Flattery, and Destruction Island would all be worth considering.
So, when huge waves slam a lighthouse, how likely is it for the lighthouse to get knocked over and smashed to pieces? Has that ever happened? Does a lighthouse shudder and shake, how loud is it?
Thank you for this video. If Kereon is a very dangerous French lighthouse, it should be noted that the Ar-men '("the stone" or "the "rock" in the Breton language) lighthouse is just as dangerous. In the world of Breton lighthouses at sea, including Tevennec, Kéréon, la Vieille and la Jument, the Ar-Men lighthouse, located 6,2 miles from the Ile de Sein in Brittany, is one of the most "famous", because of its very isolated character from the continent, the considerable difficulties which its construction presented and the danger which there was to relieve its personnel. Considered an extremely trying place to work by the lighthouse keepers community, it has been nicknamed by them "Hell of the hells". The heavy swells during storms could shake the whole building and knock down everything that was hanging on the walls, making these periods particularly difficult for keepers and it was not uncommon during heavy weather. The last relief for Ar-Men took place on April 10, 1990. The last two lighthouse keepers on duty that day were hoisted from the lighthouse. The relief on Ar-men was always carried out by boat, only when the sea was calm. You can see an early example of the relief on Ar-men (very nice weather) here: this film (in French) was made during the 60': ua-cam.com/video/5zUcFKL7Yyg/v-deo.html Unless exceptionally favorable sea conditions, the boats responsible for supplies and relief never docked on Ar-Men. A back and forth was established between the lighthouse and the boat, then men and packages were hauled a few meters above the sea using a winch handled by two keepers located on the boat and on the platform at the foot of the tower. This technique required from the crew a lot of skill, knowledge of the sea and courage. This now automated lighthouse is in danger. Little maintained (once a year only), it is easy to imagine that a rogue wave higher than the others could one day make it wobble and fall in the ocean. Thank you for sharing
@@Anna-346 Actually not. Look up the history of the Eddystone or Bell Rock lighthouses, built by human hands with quarried stone. It's all in the cleverness of design and the quality work the artisans did. "Seashaken Houses" is a book on British lighthouses worth reading.
I can't believe LaJument wasn't even mentioned. Amazing, and very disappointing. Besides being one of the most, if not the most well-known of off-shore lighthouses in the world, the iconic pictures taken of it and its keeper during a raging storm speak for itself. Re-do your list.

Good video , thanks. I thought that you might want to make another with some Scottish lighthouses in them. These include - Skerryvore, Bell Rock and Dubh Artach. Also, maybe a mention of the Stevenson family ( Robert Louis Stevenson’s father and grandfather) who designed and managed the building of them.
Año Nuevo isn't so much a home to sea lions, but rather elephant seals. Once nearly extinct from hunting, the population has re-colonized their old breeding grounds. For a species whose males can weigh up p 5000 pounds, they are surprisingly fast and aggressive.
I grew up on light stations in New Zealand. There was an international fraternity of keepers. I still have my father's Wandering Albatross pin. It is a flat lie to state that Eddystone can only be accessed by helicopter. Among the ones missed, how about "The Brothers" in NZ? Single men only, quarters built into the rock, semi-submerged for a good part of any year? My father did one tour there just before he met my mother. You also need to remember that tours of duty on most lights were, at the very least, months in duration, not daily as implied by this video. As usual, "Top Fives" is fudging the facts for more spectacular results.
Some Day You May See Lighthouse's in your Travel's, @ Sea Ya Might Love Too See A LightHouse and Find Your Way Home Again , The Sea Has its Wonders ! I PAST BY A FEW, LIGHTHOUSES ARE A SAILORS FRIEND ! GOD BLESS YOU ! Stay Safe ! Please dont get Too Bored,WE ARE ALWAYS LEARNING ! IM 69 YEARS OLD !

how were those lighthouses even built in such raging treacherous seas, how was that even possible? especially the one at the very beginning of the video.
I live in St. Joseph! Every year we have people die from walking out to the lighthouse in winter or jumping off the piers in summer. It is extremely dangerous. Usually a young adult who had their whole life ahead of them. 😓 tragic 😥
Its an impossible list to comply but gives a flavour of the lighthouse story. The smalls lighthouse is possibly the most exposed lighthouse in the world with tje most gruesome story. Should be top three. Deportivo La Coruna lighthouse captures much more history than most of those put together. I could go on. A list that needs work.
Top 10 mon cul! Le top 10 est en majeure partie en France avec le phare de l’île Vierge,la Vieille,la Jument,le Creac’h,,Kereon, Nidivic, le Stiff, l’Ar Men, Cordouan, Gotteville, la Canche et j,en oublie beaucoup d’autres sur la façade méditerranéenne tous aussi importants 🧜♂️🤷♂️🛟🚢⚓️🧭
Because the earth's surface is curved, so the tower must have sufficient height, so that the light can be seen by ships at a distance, the general sight distance of 15-25 nautical miles; but the light should not be too high, so as not to be obscured by the high clouds. According to the size of the lighthouse and the location of the characteristics of the lighthouse can be guarded, can also be unguarded, important lighthouse should be guarded.
Boy I bet no.13 is haunted!😳 The Castlepoint lighthouse in New Zealand nrth island is where a keeper fell to his death. He now haunts the house nearby that is used by lighthouse keepers. Reported by overnight guests, are the sounds of footsteps approaching yr bed at night and the indentation of someone sitting on yr bed.✨🇳🇿

Keep doing more lighthouse videos this one was awesome
I always love lighthouses growing up here in Virginia I have seen some here but will love to travel around the world and see others thanks for the videos on lighthouse
I wish I could go with you. That would be quite an adventure.
Lighthouses are breathtakingly beautiful. I felt really sad when you said "if a lighthouse falls in a remote island will it make a sound?" well...I guess the heydays of lighthouses is officially over.
So no one needs a light for a signal anymore?
Fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic
Interesting lighthouses but very dangerous also.
This was good. Thanks for making it.
THANK YOU !!! ❤ I ABOSOLUTELY LOOOVE LIGHTHOUSES !!! 😍😍😍 Visited ALL on the WEST COAST, except, about 4... GREAT MEMORY and FUUUN TRIP !!! ❤
I cant believe Terrible Tilly in Oregon wasnt mentioned.
I was looking for this comment. My favorite lighthouse!
He probably has a series on this topic.

You did that? Amazing! I myself share a love of lighthouses, especially the offshore ones. Have you done any other lighthouse paintings?
So, when huge waves slam a lighthouse, how likely is it for the lighthouse to get knocked over and smashed to pieces? Has that ever happened? Does a lighthouse shudder and shake, how loud is it?
What about the Bell Rock Lighthouse?
I would love to know how they were built.
Neanderthals
I have been to the st. Joseph Lighthouse twice and both times has been in the winter and I walk just fine across the ice all the way to the end
Are all the lighthouses automated by now, or do any of them still have workers that stay there?
Thank you for this video.

Abscess popping
I'm surprised Terrible Tillie in Oregon wasn't included!
You should check out Stannard Rock for a future video.
I love lighthouses. Thank you for making this video. Now I can die happy. :)
Sarcasm?
Sad list if it doesn't include the Bell Rock!
No mention of La Jument!
I have always loved light houses when I build a tiny house I will have it built in a style to look like one thanks for the video
I'd like to see how they're constructed.
Same. Probably a lot of expensive high tech machines

How did the lighthouse on snake island not make the list
?
@@emilyrea4788 it’s a island full of snakes, and there’s a lighthouse in it.
@@emilyrea4788 UA-cam snake island
They say no matter where you are on the island there is a poisonous snake within three feet of you
Need to do a video of lights no longer around or not mention a lot, Boone Island, Rockland Breakwater Light,
Egg Rock Light.
awesome loved it
The 1940 Scotch Cap Lighthouse in Alaska should have made the list.

Huell Howser featured Both St. GEORGE Reef Lighthouse & Point Sur's on California Gold from PBS. They're both worth watching.
