I was a fisherman on the Atlantic a few years ago.We were fishing in the St-Lawrence Gulf. I remember how terrifying it was. I was but a wee lad at the time, maybe 19 years old? The Atlantic is a cold, murderous place. Rogue waves are not only real, but they happen all the time, and when you're on a ship while it happens, you will definitely know. Old fishermen know about them, and I've seen with my own eyes waves 60 feet tall along the coast of Anticosti Island. We were at sea for 9 weeks. When I came back I told myself I would never do that again. The next time I worked a fishing boat, we were dragging lines for Albacore in the mud flats of San Pablo Bay in California. Much better.
I can't imagine how it'd feel to see a wave like that. I would like to hope I'd stand my post and not let my crew members down but I'd be like you. I'd never ever go there again.
My father, who was a merchant marine, told me that he had experienced a 100 foot wave in the south China Sea in the late 1940s. He said it was a miracle that they survived
As a kid, I took a trip across the Baltic Sea with the Finnjet ferry. We got into a pretty bad winter storm. Now the finnjet had a viewing gallery just below the bridge, on deck 7 I believe, and I clearly remember the window front getting hit by a wall of solid water. Not spray, not foam, solid green water 7 stories above the waterline. The ship shook violently, but as she was an icebreaker, with a voluminous bow and sturdily built, she took it. But I´ll never forget that moment. I respect bodies of water very much since then.
You missed the most important point about the Draupner wave - its waveform. It had a deep trough in front of it, a much steeper than normal front face and a trough on its trailing edge. Combined with its size this wave shape makes it far more dangerous than a normal wave form - ships tend to "fall" into the front trough and then get hit by an almost vertical wall of water (hence the "hole-in-the-ocean" comment). Ships are normally built to withstand pressures of up to 30 tons per square meter from waves but this particular wave form (and not just the extra size) contributes to pressures on ship structures of up to (and over) 100 tons per square meter. Little wonder ships simply disappear...
I would say that I wouldn't put it past our filthy guvt to ve CREATING these w the technology they have been using. We haven't had ANY God given wether the last 20 plus yrs. I have been a targeted individual the last 30 years, and every American needs to HEAR MY STORY, because what the monsters did to ME, they are now doing to YOU ALL. When the criminal harassment by agents started in 87-88, they had a legit right to watch me. At the time, I was young and wild and dating a drug dealer. I stopped dating him and stopped all drug use in 88, but the harassment never stopped. They have tapped every phone, hacked every computer and criminally and repeatedly entered every home i have lived in during these years since. I now don't leave my home unless I hire a house sitter because the filthy agents refuse to STAY OUT OF MY HOME. I couldn't understand for years, WHY they were targeting me. I'm married, don't do anything illegal and am a Christian since 94. It wasn't until 2018 that I knew WHY. I was sick with a skin disorder that I am now convinced was another bioweapon being tested on us. I was examining my skin with a magnifier when i found strange, matching sets of holes in my inner wrists and knees. They looked like tiny tunnels, but couldn't be seen with the naked eye. I had no idea how they got in my skin, and I hadn't seen any doctors or taken any shots in years. So I got out a sterile needle and opened up those holes and took samples from them and viewed it under my microscope. (A hobby I have had many years.) I was speechless at what I found. I t was a clear, COMPUTERIZED GEL, and it was laid out in a ladder shaped grid system, that had tiny rice shaped batteries around it's outer perimeter. It had pine tree shaped antennas that had perfectly symmetrical branches with metallic looking little balls on the tip of every branch. It was slowly collapsing it's structure as it cooled to room temperature. I had never seen anything like it in my life. Finding this tech in my body explained many things I had wondered about the last twenty years. It explained why I heard a man's voice in my head sometimes. It explained why he pretended to be GOD that the things he said weren't always Godly. It explained why things got moved or hidden from me during my sleep, and why I was WATCHED CONSTANTLY through my OWN EYES. The FILTHY, DISGUSTING, LOWLIFE MONSTERS HAD HACKED MY BRAIN, and it was WORSE THAN RAPE! I told my local chief of police, when I reported finding it, that at least a woman can HEAL after being raped. There is no 'healing' from this, according to what Elon Musk says in his videos. He sells this stuff, though I cannot imagine why ANYONE in their right mind would EVER want it!! I found a picture of it right on DARPA'S website, under Obama Brain Initiative. I KNEW what would be in the vax when they said one was coming, and unfortunately, I was right. Dr Carrie Madej, and Dr Ricardo Delgado were some of the first to identify it in the shots. It's also in the masks/tests, and swabs, and NOW they are putting it in our FOOD/BEV AND MILK!!! I am here to tell you that this absolutely EVIL tech from HELL is FAR MORE than 'gene therapy'!!! It lets the filthy monsters see and hear every thought we have! It lets them talk to us mentally. It lets them even TAKE OVER OUR BODY during certain stages of sleep, and use OUR BODY to do whatever they WANT TO, and we have little or no memory of it, much less any CONTROL OVER IT! PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW WHAT THE SICK FREAKS ARE DOING TO US, and they MUST be stopped! I wouldn't do this to an ANIMAL, because even animals have a RIGHT to have PRIVATE THOUGHTS between them and GOD. They are also now putting this tech in all animal shots as well, HACKING ALL LIVING THINGS, so they can be REMOTE CONTROLLED by the sick freaks WHO THINK THEY ARE GOD! THIS TECHNOLOGY IS STRAIGHT OUT OF HELL ITSELF and the monsters MUST be held accountable for what they have done and are continuing to do! NOBODY HAD A RIGHT TO DO THIS TO ME OR ANYONE ELSE! NOBODY! EVER! The filthy monsters have been in MY BED, MY BATH, and MY BRAIN, the last TWENTY YEARS! Watching me through MY OWN EYES, while I bathed, changed clothes, any and everything, they SAW IT. HOW WOULD YOUI FEEL ABOUT BEING RAPED THIS WAY? I sure hope you didn't take the shots, use the other things, and God forbid you been drinking any MILK!! This stuff is called NEURAL LACE/HYDROGEL. Graphene oxide and polymer based tech that is straight out of Hell itself. Musk says it attaches to nerves and grows INTO the brain, and that it is PERMANENT. I pray to God he is wrong because I truly want my HUMANITY BACK! And he is LYING when he says that it cannot be injected through a normal needle, because it CAN if it is cold enough. It SHRINKS when it gets cold. It also doesn't need a CHIP, either, because it could easily make it's OWN! The stuff acts ALIVE in the body. Absolutely fascinating to watch. I will gladly answer any questions you may have. These monsters love to torture and kill helpless, innocent little animals and the freaks tortured and killed FOUR of my greatly loved little dogs. The last one, my favorite, was tortured EVERY MONTH for over NINE YEARS, before we busted the agents using our CELL PHONE to put out the frequencies that were CAUSING those seizures. We busted them RED HANDED, and there is no denying what they are doing. They finally killed him Thanksgiving Day of 22, after making him go BLIND, causing organ failure, and shocking him every couple hours the last two days, till he couldn't hold out any more, and died in my arms. People, please don't sleep by anything digital, and keep your animals away from them as well! We also busted them hacking our washer/dryer outlet, and gas stove, so keep your appliances UNPLUGGED when not using them! If you hear an device making a strange or unusual sound, BLOCK IT by coughing, whistling, clapping, etc. and shut the device off FAST AS POSSIBLE.
I never imagined how catastrophic waves could be until last year when the flash floods hit a local city in my country Derna Libya. The collapse of a dam led to a freak wave that not only wiped 5 grand bridges but also killed thousands of people in less than an hour. I saw tsunami and flood damages before but to see it completly uproot entire apartment buildings of 10 stories high made out of sturdy concrete was a reality check on how much powerful water can really be
A simple 2 or 3 meters wave is already a little wall , cant imagine a 20 M But if the ocean didnt had some defense we had probably destroyed it in a few years
Thank you for your comment- I had never heard of the destruction in Derna. I went and did some reading and learning- my heart aches for the many lost, misplaced, and devastated from the damages. I can’t imagine. I’m certain there are still struggles there today, and my most heartfelt sympathies go out to those affected.
I was at Daytona when this happened, the day before we were able to walk out on a sand bar 40 yards into the ocean and it was only knee deep, the next night i believe the sand bar collapsed and caused the wave. I say it was a sand bar but it was much larger than just a small strip of sand my Mother and Father were not able to swim that well and while we were playing in the ocean a large group on stingray's swarmed around them and they panicked and started running the next thing I knew they were yelling for help because they stepped off of the bar and almost drowned I made it to my mother and another man with a float saved my father. I will never forget this incident. The next night is when the wave struck.
This video explains an occurrence that I saw when going 15 plus miles offshore fishing for mackerel out of New York waters in early March of 1973. I was on a on a boat called the Betty W II there was a 100 foot steel party boat called the Amberjack a few miles in front of us on rout to the West Farms. The ocean was flat and and suddenly the Amberjack disappeared for a moment and reappeared. I was in the cabin looking out facing the front window when all of a sudden the bow of the Betty W went straight down into this huge deep hole in a flat sea it was like the bow of the boat went straight down into a waterfall when we hit the bottom the boat shot straight back up unharmed. This wasn't a protruding wave, it was a deep cut of water on a flat ocean... In all these years I never saw anything like it again, but it was one hell of a scary roller coaster ride to say the least !!!!!
I cannot even imagine how you felt at this exact moment in your life's journey. How do you get back up and go back on the ocean again and again after this type of an experience? So was it like the water was just missing all of a sudden , like you ran your ship off of a massive water cliff or was your ship under the water as well before you hit the bottom and popped back up and how was there no dmg done to your ship? Your story is as fascinating as it is terrifying.
I was about 15 years old going offshore for mackerel . The 100 foot Amberjack was a few miles ahead and disappeared and came up. I was on the Betty W II a 70 foot party boat, and we went straight down into this cut of water, I was in the cabin looking straight out the window I saw the bow of the boat hit the bottom and shot straight up like a rocket. I was a young pup back around 1973/74 and always wondered what that was it happened so fast until I saw this video 🛥. IT WAS LIKE BEING ON A ROLLERCOASTER ON A FLAT CALM OCEAN. WEARD. !
Isn’t there some kind of condition that they say is responsible for a lot of the Bermuda Triangle disappearances. I think bubbles are coming out of the sea floor having something to do with volcanoes that make certain patches of ocean to have zero buoyancy, or something like that. Yours sounds different, but what a scary thrilling experience, the boat actually went straight down under the water hits the bottom and goes straight back up, that would freak me out!!
@@Loop1977 It was a long cut in the ocean a deep wall of water going straight down and a wall of water going straight up in a flat sea. When the bow of the boat hit the bottom of what I guess you'd call a wave, It was weird. Thankfully the boat didn't sink and came shooting straight up out of it like a rocket. It happened so fast I don't think anyone on bord knew what hit us. A natural phenomenon and at least it wasn't a natural disaster !
In 1984, my Navy ship, a small ASW frigate, was caught in a hurricane in the Atlantic. At one point, a huge wave literally put us on our side! I found myself literally standing on the bulkhead, the door to my ET office at my feet. Opening it, I looked DOWN into the office. Then, with a shake my plucky little ship slowly righted herself. I still feel we should have sunk that night. We would have been another "disappearance". I guess God had other plans for us. My ship still exists, as a museum display ship.
😲 Even though the majority of my sailing has been done on small craft, I know enough about the water to understand how lucky (ironically) you were! I'm very glad you came through that! She must have been a cracking boat. Well built and well maintained. You and your mates saved her along with yourselves.
Anyone else feel like the quality on this channel has recently skyrocketed? One small correction though, that's even... scarier than the info presented here. The "Holes in the Ocean" around SA actually are referring to maybe the only scarier thing in the ocean than a rogue wave: a rogue hole or rogue trough. Essentially, think of it like this. If a wave 2x the height of all the others in the area, the same can happen with a trough (the lowest point between waves). So, essentially, a hole 2x as deep as normal between waves opens underneath you. While much harder to occur, this can/does happen, and will literally swallow ships whole.
When I was in my early 20's, my family went to Ventura Beach in California. My parents and son were on the shore and I waded probably 30 yards off shore. To my surprise, the water only came up to my bottom. I turned to see my dad on the beach with my son who were both waving at me, so I waved back. My dad started frantically pointing behind me. When I turned, there was a 12 to 15 foot wave at my back. Everything hit just right, luckily, all I could think to do was jump up and the wave caught me with my head above water and carried me quite gracefully back to shore. Although, I love the ocean, I don't turn my back on it, anymore. Not even in the Puget Sound, which is where we live now.
California is known for its large waves. 12 to 15 foot sounds pretty common for there. I'm used to the east coast and have ridden plenty of waves back into shore just for fun. Where I live now, some of our local beaches have sand bars about 50 to 100 feet off the beach which reduces wave height further.
I live up on the north coast, near Fort Bragg. Between here and Crescent city, we get those sneaker waves all the time. Tourists get caught out on the rocks when they hit, and get sucked in and drown. You can study the waves for a half hour, and be convinced your path along the rocks is safe, but then one wave hits that engulfs everything. Combined with rup tides, they dont stand a chance. There have been a few really stupid accidents, where peoples dogs get washed out, and they go in after the dog. The people drown but the dog lives. Theres signs everywhere to not try to save your dog. They have far more endurance than a human, and somehow arent as susceptible to the rip tides. It happens every year.
My Father was on a navy ship traveling to Tokyo late in 1945. While standing on the bridge, he observed waves up to 85 feet high. He knew his height above the water, and using trigonometry, calculated their magnitude. He was a physicist with a EE degree and was not the type to exaggerate. It occurred during a typhoon they were in.
with Trillions of $$ spent on military equipments, a fraction could have been used to develop advanced sonar mappings of the ocean floor world wide. This same technology could be used to search wrecks such as MS München. We can probably learn quite a bit from this particular wreck, at least what cause its mysterious sinking.
Before satellites there used to be a couple of weather ships that stationed off the west coast of BC about 500 miles out there at Station Papa. He said his berth was 80 feet above the water line and they used to take green water at that height. The North Pacific can be serious weather.
No, I don't recall his ship- but I'm sure it wasn't the Indianapolis. He was headed for Tokyo just after their surrender. He was stationed there (in Yakasuka sp?) for about 8 months. He said he never felt in danger despite the recent surrender. At first he carried a .45 ACP but after a couple of weeks, he quit taking a sidearm even when he traveled in to the city. @@DramaMustRemainOnTheStage
As a physical oceanographer who has worked with planetary (Rossby) waves, I am impressed with how well these have been well explained in this video - a simplified explanation, of course, but still a scientifically accurate one and very easy to digest for the target audience. Also, few channels go beyond surface gravity waves (or just "waves" for most people) and enter the realm of internal waves or planetary waves. Outstanding for scientific outreach!
In my youth, I spent some time amongst the people of Samoa and Tonga. Some of the most beautiful sunsets man could ever see, and I've stood on cliffs and seen waves easily topping 60-70 feet. They knew how to read their waters, and avoided certain areas
I remember when the movie The Poseidon Adventure premiered in 1972. There was criticism that the rogue wave that caused the ship to roll over was an impossibility.
They are real. Been there, done that, but my ship survived. We saw another small ship, the USCGC Bear in the early 1980s, went through a huge wave. She was, for a thankfully brief moment, a submarine. The wave totally engulfed her head on, ripped all the stanchions from the deck, tore away the fiberglass cover of her main gun, and the front of the superstructure was set back several inches! We saw her just after, on her way to her homeport for repair.
Love it; t me, water is 1 of the most dangerous natural phonemic force ever no matter what form its in (whether tsunamis,torrential snow, hurricanes ,icebergs, freak waves, avalanches, hailstones etc). Maybe because ( unlike a fire)if u capsize, u have no solid footing t gain u bearings an rethink u situation, unlike a fire where on exiting a property ur on solid ground etc How do u contain a hurricane/waves/the seas if ur caught up in a watery situation unlike a fire in a building? Only thing that scares me more is an earthquake - once again, a phenomenon that loosens ur feet from solidity.
While serving in the U.S. Navy in 1985, aboard the aircraft carrier, the USS Constellation CV 64. We were bout 100+miles NE of Main Island ("Hawaii"), when our ship (who's flight deck was 8 stories above the ocean in flat water) took a wave that came over the bow & was at least 30 feet high over the bow.!! INCREDIBLE sounds does a big metal ship make when weather & water r battling it.!!8^o ✌️
I was a fisherman in the North Sea when I was younger. Some of the waves I saw out there scared me onto land forever. I still have nightmares to this day. No ship could possibly survive those rogue waves. My older colleagues (including the captain) told of rogue waves 120ft+ breaking violently in the middle of the sea and sounding like freight trains. I read that the highest theoretical wave height with the current models is about 200ft. I guess it is limited by wind speed, because in the wave simulation pools they can make waves virtually as high as they want. Like towers of 1km+. It could even explain why low flying planes crashed in the Bermuda triangle. I know they record wave heights some places, but I wish they had swarms of small solar powered drone boats that could roam the seas and find the real monsters. If they could record them on video, that would break the internet and nobody would ever go on a cruise ship again...
There was a video a couple months ago from CNN or the weather channel i believe and they actually had some kind of drone boat they sent out into a hurricane this year and it's pretty epic, you should Google it. I agree with your thoughts on it scaring people to land forever i almost drowned in a riptide when i lived in southern California and that was enough for me
That 🌊 could explain some of the disappearances at the Bermuda Triangle. But the main reason I'm sure planes go missing is the sudden down draft of air/wind. There is said to be like an energy vortex there. It creates a funnel/drain and can sink ships! 😳 A similar phenomenon happens in the skies as well. Pilots have said they've been forced down hundreds of feet In seconds from air currents! Has to do with that vortex IMO!!
"The Atlantic is a cold, murderous place" I know exactly what you mean. I was a Merchant Navy Seaman. Once sailing from Bordeaux to The Azores, it was five days and five nights of living hell. Had we not taken the longer route around Sao Miguel Island to get some cover, I wouldn't be here to tell the tale. At 4:13, the Energy Endurance. I saw something like that.
I graduated from the Azores and definitely seen and heard of huge waves from the Brave Hearts who surfed and fish there. No clue how big, but too big for me. We were a Rock in the Alantic. One of rules I remember: No umbrellas. I FAFO by using an umbrella. Gust of wind picked me up and carried me towards the 20ft fence that seperated us the rocky coastline. Luckily it dropped me down. In those frigid waters are Great White Sharks, Portuguese Man of Jellyfish and other Apex predators. To this day, I NEVER touched an Unbrella again.
I was in Daytona Beach for that 1991 rogue wave. My band was playing a show at The Pier...obviously right on the ocean. The only way to get our gear into the venue was to wait for low-tide and drive down the beach to the gear elevator that went from the beach up the 30+ feet to the pier. I remember thinking that I'd never seen the tide so low...so far out into the ocean...crazy. We loaded in and left...the wave hit an hour later. Absolutely bizarre.
"I remember thinking that I'd never seen the tide so low......the wave hit an hour later." That's a firm telltale of a tsunami. I've no idea why they included it into a video about rogue waves -- which by definition only happen out at sea.
@@ivan_pozdeev_u nothing is rogue, it was formed by wind over far fetch and long hours consistently. It’s not rogue, that’s just a short word to explain a long concept
Great information, I knew about most, but learned about a few more types of waves. One additional piece of information: almost all these waves are indeed the transfer of energy through the water and the water itself only undulates vertically; except for tsunamis, those actually transfer a large amount of water linearly (or rather circular outward from the point of origin), which has two very distinctive effects: they grow in height only close to shore where they have to keep moving the same amount of water-volume over the ever shallower seabed, and secondly they don't "stop" at the shore, but keep flowing all that water inland (sometimes kilometers)
for sure you didnt saw those video of tsunai formed far from the coast, for saying that tsunamis wave only gets bigger when close to shore hahahahahahahahahaaahah, i ve already sail on a sea with a tsunamis incoming (2005) and we wre about 70 feet tall above the sea, you can find the video here on youtube. this video was made by a coworker on aother boat
Yrs ago when I was in the navy, I was on a 320ft ship. Caught in a typhoon by Hong Kong,but whilst in the eye,about 4 hrs into the calm eye, we got hit by a wave that was taller than our mast,which was about 134 ft. We hit it head on,the whole ship,I mean everything including the mast,radar,weapons everything. We went into a trough and keep going through we lost everything but recovered pretty quick.we were in the wave for. About 11 to 13 seconds,enough to mess us up. Pretty rad.
Exactly, this video and it's info are complete trash. We've seen three hundred foot waves in the North Sea well over 100 years ago and survived to tell the tale. It's not uncommon at all to see 100ft waves .
I experienced a small rogue wave back in the late 90s. Me and a friend had been fishing in Boca Grande Fla. and decided to stop by the Nacomis Jetty near Venice Fla.. We walked out to the end passing a guy set up fishing about half way down the rocks and asked if he was having any luck, he replied no it was to rough. the Jetty is a pile of rocks at the entrance to the intercoastal waterway in that area and rises about 8-10 feet above the water level at a normal high tide with an asphalt walkway on top. Me and my friend were just standing at the end enjoying the view of the moon setting and the sweet salty air when the water level rose to our waists, pushed us back a step or two then forward the same before dropping to the normal level around 14 feet lower. I looked at my friend he looked dumbfounded and I thought of the guy fishing (at the level he was at he was under 6-8 feet when the water rose), his gear was spread over 20 feet of the side of the rocks and he was gathering it as fast as he could and took of running for shore. Luckily it came at around 2 am and any buildings along that beach were over 150 yards back. If it had come during the day when people were on the beach I'm certain there would have been injuries.
Ive been a surfer for 50 years. A wave can double up with another wave and double and triple in height right there in front of you when 2-3-4 waves just all combine. I can imagine is the deep sea several waves popping up randomly and wow a gigantic wave is made in front of you. It's amazing AND A LITTLE SCARY
I picked up a book at the library called "the wave"I forgot the woman's name who wrote it she followed noah and local surfers in Hawaii knew more about waves then noah! There's some weird s***out there.
I can tell the scientists who thought waves follow harmonic waveforms never spent much time with a boogeyboard or surfboard. Any kid who has knows every now and then there’s a wave that’s much larger than any of the ones before or after it which comes and pummels them. Anybody who has set up a picnic just short of the surf has learned that the hard way too. Yeah, waves definitely do combine.
@@QualityPen Thats why they are almost allways wrong , they just use what they have learned and crete a theory , and that theory will become the truth And most of what they think they know is based on theories to , its like a joke theories + theories make more theories and it never stops :))

I was once scaling a rock face along a beach with a friend. I heard a roaring sound behind me and spun to see a wave towering me. I was about 10 feet above the other waves, which were easily close to 10 feet tall already. Fortunately, I managed to tuck my head onto my arm and grab a crack as it hit me and completely submerged me. When the water fell back down I scrambled so fast up that cliff I felt like a cartoon character. Probably one of the scariest moments of my life. Makes for a fun and epic story now though.
@@kristiisham3711 it's ... not the closest I've come to death. And not the scariest of my experiences. So I'll admit it's honestly more of a fun story to me. Although it could have gone so badly.
05:32 Scientists once thought waves couldn't exceed 30 feet until a rogue wave hit the Dropner oil platform in 1995, proving waves could reach heights of 85 feet.
I lived in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Lake-effect snow is a thing. At the very tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula there is a sign that shows the most snow they've ever gotten. It was 25 feet.
My dad’s side of the family is from Calumet and I spent many summers a child staying at the light house keeper’s cabin in Eagle Harbor. Suffice to say, that tall sign always fascinated me- as did all the tales of the dangers of Superior in the winter. Now I want a pasty, lol.
I crossed the Atlantic from Southhampton, England to New York on a small Cunard liner in the late summer of 1969. It was stormy for 3 full days and the seas were huge. I grew up sailing and I loved to be on the water, so while just about everybody else was done in by the turbulence, I went to the stern of the ship and rode up and down, holding onto the railing. Sometimes I was weightless when the ship sank into a trough, and often I could look up through the beautiful green waves against the stormy sky. I'd guess that the waves averaged 40 feet. Needless to say, this was _incredibly_ foolish! But wonderful. Finally, after a few hours, one of the crew noticed me and made me come inside. Though I was bummed, he might have saved my life.
Rogue waves are giant!!!!!!!!! 🌊😱😎(this came from my 6.5 year old son who is fascinated by ocean waves … believe it or not I study nonlinear internal waves for a living) … onward to Dongsha atoll !
I have witnessed and lived to see 60 foot wave in the Greenland sea at winter. It´s the only time in my life I´ve felt like an ant. Needless to say I have a healthy respect for Mother Nature.

@@wallyman292 yessir, i live about 40mins from Milwaukee, i'll visit Michigan sometimes. I remember one day some tourist came by and asked me what i thought of the lakes, i told them i love it and sometimes come by to look for sea glass and such. Have a relaxing day. The locals however told me to never go passed the second sand bar as a lot of people had gone missing, due to some crazy rip tides and such, so like a good human i passed off that information and let them go, well the next day i turn on the news and those same 2 people were missing, i assumed they didn't take my advice, and i feel bad for them a lot. Never heard if they were found or not, however if it was the lake that took them, they sure didn't respect it.
During WW2, the liner RMS Queen Mary was 700 miles off the coast of Scotland with 10,000 US troops on board , when she was hit on her port side by a wave that smashed the windows on the bridge 100 feet high . The ship listed by 52 degrees , only 3 degrees under her capsize limit . Hundreds of troops were injured .
Currents moving in opposite directions, where there are islands off the coast of a larger land mass causes a speeding up of these currents, add wind and waves gaining each other's energy and this can happen. That is why it happens off the coast of South Africa and off the coast of South America. If you want to observe this phenomenon on a smaller scale, fill a bath tub up about halfway with water and then stir the water in as best a circle as you can, with a cupped hand, staying as far outside the perimeter as you can and once you get the water moving good, take your hand out and watch how the water moving opposite on each side of the tub begins to affect the waters in the middle. Every once in a while, you will see a rogue wave, larger than the rest. Now think of the trade winds moving from east to west near either side of the equator, but then the jet stream is moving the opposite direction (see typical weather pattern across the US), now imagine how the opposing winds over time will begin to behave similar to how I described in the bathtub experiment above.
I ve been fishing for 50 years at porto leone in the Otinanai bay and what I have experience in late 1985 was beyond belief. A 150 ft wave smashed everything, sent our 30ft boat on the mountain and the only reason we didn't sink was beacause our boat was stuck on an enormous tree's top. Boat is still there btw.
The liner Queen Elizabeth (the Queen Mary's bigger sister) experienced 5 rogue waves in her lifetime. She was extremely lucky every time to be facing the the waves, each of which swept over the bridge all the way aft. It was lucky too that they struck very early in the morning when no one was outside on deck. I believe the Queen Mary suffered two or three, the QE2 also. On a U-Tube video about freak waves, one crew member from the QE2 wrote in the comments about his experience.
@@KR72534 Like a lot of things back then they were built up to a standard, not down to a cost. Overengineered meant built to last. Although, having said that, I wonder how it would've been built knowing what we know today.

Good video, but at 11:40 seconds the narrator mentions a possible meteorite strike causing a wave near Daytona Beach, FL. Meteorites are the leftover fragments of of a meteor impact, the part meteorite hunters search for around the earth. As this video is 9 months old and almost 2400 comments I am probably not the first person to offer this observation.
Waves such as this are not shocking to me. Many many years ago I used to work on a shrimping vessel and we encountered a 90 ft swell. The ship looked like a child's toy in comparison to this behemoth of a wave. Thanks to an extremely intelligent, sophisticated, calm captain we are all alive to tell about it. I know it's part of his job, but I have always believed that certain captains do not receive enough credit for all the good they do.
Yeah, after 40 years on the FL coast, I'm happy and comfortable 980' above sea level. At 1200 or so miles from the nearest coast, it would be the mother of all waves to get me here. Wait, what's that swishing noise?
It happened in Cancun during hurricane Wilma in 2005, a lot of the sand disappeared along the hotel zone and ships were hired to actually suck the sand up from a sand bar and deposited it back to the beach. We could actually watch the sand bar move and change shape with each tide schedule
My godfather worked on offshore oil rigs for weeks at a time, he once told me that until you've seen a 100ft wave you can't grasp how powerful the ocean is, and how powerless we are when it comes to nature.
I don't understand how scientists didn't believe waves could exceed thirty feet in height, when there are CLEARLY visible waves WAY higher than that right off the shores of California (60'+ at Mavericks), Hawaii (60'+ at Pe’ahi, aka Jaws), and Portugal (80'+ at Nazare, possibly even over 100').
If you got one of these oceanic freak waves hitting any shoreline, you should run, it would devastate the shoreline it hit. I think the big waves (60ft+) you see at Nazare etc are different waves forced up by the shallow seabed they come up against but they are nowhere near that big before the come ashore 😁
You are right. That's nonsense. The Schrödinger equation was published in 1925 and deals with waves in quantum mechanics. This equation can be used in the "real world" (our scale) to explain rogue waves... and rogue holes or rogue troughs.
This is not a rogue wave but a trough story. We were sailing down the coastline from Canada to SFO. We were fine as we were well out to sea. Other sailors did not go out as far as us and were caught in a storm - terrifying some of their crew who called MAYDAY - while the Captain/owner was deploying a drogue off the bow. So the Coast Guard helicopter came and they were obliged to abandon the sailboat, get into the water and then put themselves into a lowered basket to be lifted aloft. When we met up with the Captain in SFO, he said as he climbed into the basket - at the top of a trough - he was looking DOWN on the TOP of his 70ft mast - that’s how deep was the trough - his sailboat at that moment in the bottom of the trough. Those are massive wave formations. PS He later, at great expense, found and retrieved his boat - it was quite happily bobbing along - undamaged. Cheers. S
But they should learn how to pronounce names!!! That is a very easy research that would only take a couple of minuts... How hard could it be to google "how to say München in german"?!! Especially if you are going to say it that many times. 🥵🤬🤬😡 And NO, it´s absolutly not "moon-ken" I guess he might say "NOW JERK" to New York to. That sounds just as bad...
I'm not sure if he was directly involved in this saga, but my 8th grade social studies teacher in the mid '90s was an ocean hobbyist and was able to prove to some academic body that waves got far bigger than they thought by comparing the size of a wave in a photo to a tanker.
I really just like that in every video that this guys ever does if he is explaining something that has a size to it he always compares it to like a building or cars or fields of someform it just helps you imagine how big it actually is
Since the finding of the Edmund Fitzgerald underwater cameras have shown the vessels “dogs” weren’t totally clamped down. The ship was seen leaving Duluth Harbour with her cargo bay doors open. With the cargo bay doors not clamped shut she took on water and likely started to list. The waves, however, were the determining factor.
Ah fellow Wisconsinite? I live down by madison so i have Michigan i go to. I have been to superior a few times, locals always tell me the same thing, and most sailors tell me superior is arguably worse than the open ocean in some ways
In the early 90s I was vacationing @ Virginia Beach. As I walked out of the water, my attention was directed to my family on the beach. I remember a wave retreating barely over my feet. Dry sand was 10-15 ft ahead. A rogue wave hit me square in the middle of my back. It slammed me so hard into the sand that the whole side of my face was raked pretty good. Couldn't believe it.
It happens a lot more often than 10,000 years, within the last 10 years it's a phenomena that has been studied more closely in specialized indoor wave generating facilities to figure out how and why it happens. It did used to be passed off by coast guard officials as a random event or fictional event made up by superstitious sailors.
you both didnt watching all the video, cause right after he sayning 1 in a 10 000 years, he saying the opposite, that what the scientist though, but they were wrong, and all scientist now saying that rogue wave happen at around 10 /3weeks so its make 3 rogue wave by week, according to sientist, and to the what dude in the video saying........ pple like you , who think are intellignet prove your stupidity by not watching all the video before commenting something as idiot as you said@@jpslaym0936
On the pacific ocean people were fishing. But at night the ocean was pitch black. Causing the people on the boat to not see waves. When the max wave came at night they didn't see it so they all died but many people survived. Sharks had smelled their blood so they died.
I was on a cruise ship, never knew what it was called but, i remember it vividly. I was about 12 standing on the deck, when i hear people suddenly screaming louder than ive ever heard, and there was so many people to, my ears were on fire, i looked up and there it was, a wave almost 70 ft tall, but sense we were only 926(i asked how many miles away we were cause im not patient) milee away, the rescue boats got there very quickly, some people were dead, some were in hospitals i remember waking up from surgery getting told i had maggots in my throat from the water that i consumed, only one of my parents survived tho, my father, he still tells me story about the sea, he was a sailor.
At the time of the MV Munchen disaster I was working with Land's End Coastguard who were involved in co-ordinating the search. It was very difficult to believe a vessel of such size could 'disappear' within seconds. A subsequent 'event' involved the QE2 reporting that her bow rails had been stove in while returning to Southampton from New York.
I heard that story of the QEII in another way. There was a Cat 5 hurricane over the island of Hispaniola and it sent up a 95 foot wave which the captain was warned about. He was quoted as saying,”It was white knuckle time.” They had to turn the bow into the wave.
You are probably right. We dealt with so many incidents. At the time Land's End Coastguard was responsible for Search and Rescue of the entire North East Atlantic ! @@russellking1924
Very informative and thought-provoking. Maybe explains ships drifting around without passengers who seemed to be in the middle of meals. Possibly explains some Bermuda Triangle events? Thanks for this story.
Theres a certain sound that can affect people at sea that they believe could be a reason for boats showing up with no sailors on board in areas like the bermuda triangle i believe they did a test with the sound in a cinema and people went crazy trying to escape the sound and people died. Makes you believe that it could be safer in the water then the boat say during a storm. If i can find the video ill post it for you guys
A couple of days ago, I was on the Norwegian Gem and on our way to Bermuda, experienced 60-knot winds and we all could barely sleep. Glad to know this is somewhat normal and I wasnt experiencing this happening for the first time ever.
I wonder.. about the Bermuda triangle if any ship that went in and did not return.. it could be because a rogue wave.. growing up I heard about the kraken, other giant sea creatures, maybe a giant whirlpool (had a terrifying nightmare about one of those) thankgod I don't live near the ocean.. the only deep lake I ever swam in was lake superior and that lake is 1,332 feet deep probably the 2nd or 3rd deepest in the US
My grabdfather was in the navy and the merchant marines and he told me about several he encountered during WW2 in the North Atlantic. He said the only thing that saved them was experience and the size of the ships. A lot of people did not believe him until the 90s when scientific evidence of the phenomenon started being documented. He also said they were common in the North Atlantic and Africa. He was only ever afraid of the sea when they were stalked by submarines and encounters with these waves
My father-in-law lost a friend on the München. He was Chief engineer for over 20 years and he had also a journey where his ship was hit by a freak wave. Luckily their ship was empty so they past the wave unharmed. But his captain saw this wave coming and make his last wish. My father-in-law was in his room on a couch and fly through the whole room when the wave hit the ship.
Random note: These ships were called "LASH". That stood for "Lighter Aboard SHip". The lighters are basically small barges (filled internally with the cargo) that were picked up with an onboard crane, then lowered at the stern, to the water. I sailed one converted to regular containers in 1980. Terrible ships for the crews! Hotter than hell, small cramped enginerooms also! 50-60 ft waves are nothing in the north Pacific/Bering seas! I've been on a tanker that was basically a submarine for 5 or 6 days in a storm traveling the same speed and direction we were. 80-90 knt winds, 60-90 ft waves!
I remember when I lived on the Oregon Coast, we knew some people who were with the Coast Guard. They said that 70ft waves are not uncommon. Kind of scary.
And the Cost Guard would know. They train at the mouth of the Columbia because it’s so wild-challenging training. I always thought the Pacific was wilder than the Atlantic but I guess when you are away from shore it’s the same…..
My father was 26 years in the Navy, He was a line officer and a mustang, the term for someone who rises in rank from Seaman Recruit to officer. He was XO on a ship ported at the Army base in Bayonne and he took me out to the sea with him. I got a little seasick and the officers at breakfast were talking about storms they had been in at sea. I asked my father how big the biggest waves he had experienced at sea were. He told me "about a hundred feet". Another officer said to me that as the ship was tossed about on the ocean, his stomach would rise with the waves and the contents would fly out on teh trip back down. I lived on Guam and saw the size of the waves that would kick up from teh typhoons and crash on teh reefs - 40 to 50 feet on typhoons that hit neighboring islands. Watch the storm part of the film "The Caine Mutiny" to see how strong steel ships can get tossed around like small boats in the bathtub.
More then likely, rough guesstimatetions, an assumption of weve been around x many years only seen x many so they should be roughly this rare. Also, hole in the ocean is a phenomenon where a literal hole opens up, sometimes big sometimes small, always terrifying.
I believe that was based on the math that was done up to that time including factors such as max wind speeds. Though it seems to me that if you already had dozens or hundreds of eyewitness accounts that once every 10,000 years would necessarily discount all of those. As with so many things in science, the prevailing wisdom is largely based on scenarios along the lines of "Hey, is there life on the ocean floor?" the prevailing wisdom is "How could there be? it's too dark and too much pressure." until someone asks, 'But did you go look?" and when the technology to go look becomes available and we go look the prevailing wisdom needs to be tossed out, and with the new data discovered, then the explanations of where and how life can exist get updated. Same thing here - all the math in the world doesn't matter if you are missing key factors that define the equations necessary for your model to match reality.
Very informative video, with great imagery to illustrate the concepts. Thanks! Nature is more than capable of producing incredible energy outputs. It’s not hard to imagine that when the forces of gravity, wind, and water currents create the right wave frequencies, it can build into something amazingly powerful. Similar to how the right sound frequency can cause increasing distortions in glass. Except with water, there is no solid shape to harshly limit the energy growth. It would be scary to imagine the size a rogue wave could reach if earth’s gravity were less.
You should search Joe Rogan Great Flood. Very interesting discussion postulating "The Great Flood" and what happened. They were saying there was evidence for 1000'+ waves.
Both rogue wave theories depend on an additive process. On top of that, a lot of big storms have rotating wind patterns. The rotating winds means that you're dealing with waves running multiple directions. It's no surprise that you can have 2, 3, or 4 waves aligning just right from different directions to add enough energy to each other to create a rogue wave.
These are not known as rogue waves as they are expected and common in high wind storms. What you are referring to is called spike waves and have a much higher frequency in extreme conditions. Although the science is similar Rogue waves are a much different animal and occur at a much lower frequency in mild, normal or any conditions which is why they were thought to be a myth for so long. They are unpredictable. Spike waves are very predictable with the major variables being wind speed and direction in relation to current. Example. If a winter storm rolls through Cape Horn with a forecasted wind speed of over 70 knots. It’s a guarantee the average wave height will be upwards of 40 feet with wave spikes as high as 80 feet or more. Those are extremely high waves but they are not rogue waves.
@@garrettroberts7937 from what I understand about rogue waves they are also spike waves, just the conditions that you find them the frequency of multiple waves adding up to these big waves is less frequent. You do have various wave sources across the ocean.
In the 1990s I worked in The Netherlands for a gas producing company. Most of the production was offshore in the North Sea, that is typically around 30m deep. Most of the platforms at the time were unmanned (now all) designed to withstand the 100 year wave. This required a gap of 17m between mean high tide and the lowest deck. On a night in about 1998 theer was a storm with a north-westerly gale that coincided with an exceptionally high tide. The wind pushed the sea southwards causing flooding in the East of England before arriving at thr Dutch & German coasts. One gas platform was almost wiped out, the lowest deck having been stripped of all its machinery and the higher decks very severly damaged. No other platform in the vicinity sustained significant damage. the conclusion reached was that the hugh mas of water hitting the Dutch/German coastlines (that form a kind of arc) had rebounded and that 3 waves had met just at the point of this one platform. Design criteria were subsequently revised and de-manning by automation accelerated.
I almost got washed to sea on a destroyer. The sound of the wave sounded like a monster. When it hit me I held a rail and went horizontal for 30 secs. Felt like being water boarded.
My theory would be that 2 waves meet and become one big wave. To explain it a bit more logically, I think the ship has a certain mass and it displaces the water around the ship. This causes 2 smaller waves to meet, which then become one big wave and hit the ship back. only that it happens on both sides of the ship and thus 2 30m high waves from the right and left hit the ship together and press together again and thus become a 60-80 m wave. If the ship is pushed upward, and one of the two waves is higher than the other, the ship will be tilted, if it is on the side of the wave, and then "swallowed" by the waves It's just a theory, take it with humor and maybe I've helped someone with it. I wish you all a wonderful day ^^
@@brodriguez11000 Meh.. ive been in multiple quakes here in CA. Largest was over 6.5. Anything less than a 5.5 produces nothing but a YAWN from me lol. Its nothing. It does get exciting though once its over a 6. Things start to jump around the house all on their own lol.
I grew up in Central Florida and use to surf daily and on the biggest days the waves were 4-6 ft and with major storms sitting way off shore they got upwards of 8 ft. So hearing that Daytona Beach had a 18 ft wave hit the shoreline is unbelievable .it's easy to imagine this size waves in California . Hawaii .and countless other locations all around the world cause well it happens on a regular basis but to hit a Florida coastline is truly a once in a lifetime thing or maybe a few in a lifetime maybe but if I was out sitting on my board in a lineup waiting for a big set to roll in and saw a 18 ft monster heading towards me I believe I would paddle out hoping to get out past it's breaking point instead of paddling in to catch it lmfao .
What I don't understand is when the narrator says that they considered seismic activity versus a landslide. Landslides produce waves with shorter wavelengths and would crest like a giant wave. Waves produce by seismic activity have longer wavelengths and move in more like a flash flood and would come farther inland.
@@Anthony-ru7sk The only down side of learning to surf In Daytona Beach or Anywhere in Central Florida is a real challenge when you have at 2-3 ft .at best 4 ft .But I recommend you travel like 10 miles south to New Smyrna Beach (Ponce Inlet) it's the best break within 100 miles of Daytona whether you go north or south . Only problem with surfing Florida now is its become Shark Bite Capital of the world . I grew up in Orlando in the late 70s early 80s and it wasn't like this back then . We would stay in the water from sunrise to sunset all summer long and can only think of one or two shark bitesin a 5-10 year span .but for some reason starting around 2005 going forward especially the last 10 years there are millions of sharks swarming all around the Florida's east coast .I've literally seen videos of surfers paddling out jumping over sharks to get out to the lineup . There are shark bites happening almost on a weekly if not daily basis throughout the year . So be careful .most the times it's small bites amounting in having to get a few stitches on your ankle or calves
@@johnhagan582 - They need to eat too. If they can't get fish they're going to find alternate sources. I used to surf decades ago. I don't think I will ever get a chance to be in the ocean again. It's a little sad.
Back in the mid 1970s I was stationed on a US Navy ship. We were stationed at the North SAR (Sea & Air Rescue) station. That was our location in the North China sea. A rather strong typhoon built up and traveled into our location. We were experiencing 50-foot waves that worked very hard to attempt to capsize us. For 4 days rolled and tossed in that storm. Unless you had mandatory duties, your off-duty time was spent in a passageway with your back on one bulkhead and your feet braced in the opposite bulkhead. During that time I had 3 8-hour bridge watches as the officer of the deck. During one of those watches we were rolled 26° to starboard. If we had not been hit by a similar monster wave that stood us back up, we would have capsized. Fortunately, we had only 7 sailors injured. On that 4th day I was tossed down a ladder into our birthing space. Ended up messing up my left knee which ended up requiring surgery. I will never forget that storm or the attempt by nature to make up a rusting pile of steel on the ocean floor. P.S. Try living off nothing but cold hotdogs and bottled cool-aid for 4 days while you attempt to not be thrown where you do not want to go, by seas that were proving just how insignificant we humans are. 😢😮
I'd be puking up anything I ate anyway. My best friend was a Navy rescue swimmer. She hid her pregnancy to deploy on the Reagan at it's commission. One tough chick!
No way could scientists have believed, up until 1995, that the maximize ocean wave height was 30 feet. I've watched home video footage, of my Alaskan fisherman friends, fighting waves much much larger than 30 feet.
My theory for rouge waves is when the two different types of waves steel energy from each other, it does form a bugger wave, and maybe the moons gravity gets stronger and that lifts the two combined waves together? (I’m most likely wrong I’m 10
They can happen anywhere and the absence of a storm doesn't mean your safe. Off the coast of CA, my friends mom was out on a point when a huge wave came out of relatively calm sea and washed her away to her death. Her husband saw it happen and said that the swells were 6-8', but the wave was more than 20', completely engulfing the point.
That is so frightening. I'm planning on taking photos of seascapes with my first serious camera. I will bear in mind what you have said when I do so.@@mrlopez4623
I knew about the three sisters... however, I had never heard that that is what hit the Edmund Fitzgerald... I really wonder how they can know that! Pretty sure she did not report in after getting hit...
From my study of what happened- I believe that the Fitzgerald encountered waves past Caribou Island, resulting in deep wave troughs that slammed the ship into the lake floor, rupturing the keel.
I was a fisherman on the Atlantic a few years ago.We were fishing in the St-Lawrence Gulf. I remember how terrifying it was. I was but a wee lad at the time, maybe 19 years old? The Atlantic is a cold, murderous place. Rogue waves are not only real, but they happen all the time, and when you're on a ship while it happens, you will definitely know. Old fishermen know about them, and I've seen with my own eyes waves 60 feet tall along the coast of Anticosti Island. We were at sea for 9 weeks. When I came back I told myself I would never do that again. The next time I worked a fishing boat, we were dragging lines for Albacore in the mud flats of San Pablo Bay in California. Much better.
Lol
I can't imagine how it'd feel to see a wave like that. I would like to hope I'd stand my post and not let my crew members down but I'd be like you. I'd never ever go there again.
albacore in San Pablo bay? really?
wow that must have been scary!
Just wow man
My father, who was a merchant marine, told me that he had experienced a 100 foot wave in the south China Sea in the late 1940s. He said it was a miracle that they survived
you obviously didn't watch the video@SanityTV_Last_Sane_Man_Alive
@SanityTV_Last_Sane_Man_Alive
Oh you know all about those 100 foot waves do ya ? Shut up you ain’t George Clooney in the Perfect Storm !
I spent some time in the China sea and witnessed a 100 ft wave.
@@debrawatkins4165 You should have stayed in the kitchen !
@SanityTV_Last_Sane_Man_Alive You're assuming it was a wide wave as it was tall.
As a kid, I took a trip across the Baltic Sea with the Finnjet ferry. We got into a pretty bad winter storm. Now the finnjet had a viewing gallery just below the bridge, on deck 7 I believe, and I clearly remember the window front getting hit by a wall of solid water. Not spray, not foam, solid green water 7 stories above the waterline. The ship shook violently, but as she was an icebreaker, with a voluminous bow and sturdily built, she took it. But I´ll never forget that moment. I respect bodies of water very much since then.
You missed the most important point about the Draupner wave - its waveform. It had a deep trough in front of it, a much steeper than normal front face and a trough on its trailing edge.
Combined with its size this wave shape makes it far more dangerous than a normal wave form - ships tend to "fall" into the front trough and then get hit by an almost vertical wall of water (hence the "hole-in-the-ocean" comment). Ships are normally built to withstand pressures of up to 30 tons per square meter from waves but this particular wave form (and not just the extra size) contributes to pressures on ship structures of up to (and over) 100 tons per square meter. Little wonder ships simply disappear...
Thank you for breaking that down..i was gonna Google it 😂 ❤
I would say that I wouldn't put it past our filthy guvt to ve CREATING these w the technology they have been using. We haven't had ANY God given wether the last 20 plus yrs.
I have been a targeted individual the last 30 years, and every American needs to HEAR MY STORY, because what the monsters did to ME, they are now doing to YOU ALL.
When the criminal harassment by agents started in 87-88, they had a legit right to watch me. At the time, I was young and wild and dating a drug dealer. I stopped dating him and stopped all drug use in 88, but the harassment never stopped. They have tapped every phone, hacked every computer and criminally and repeatedly entered every home i have lived in during these years since. I now don't leave my home unless I hire a house sitter because the filthy agents refuse to STAY OUT OF MY HOME. I couldn't understand for years, WHY they were targeting me. I'm married, don't do anything illegal and am a Christian since 94. It wasn't until 2018 that I knew WHY. I was sick with a skin disorder that I am now convinced was another bioweapon being tested on us. I was examining my skin with a magnifier when i found strange, matching sets of holes in my inner wrists and knees. They looked like tiny tunnels, but couldn't be seen with the naked eye. I had no idea how they got in my skin, and I hadn't seen any doctors or taken any shots in years. So I got out a sterile needle and opened up those holes and took samples from them and viewed it under my microscope. (A hobby I have had many years.) I was speechless at what I found. I t was a clear, COMPUTERIZED GEL, and it was laid out in a ladder shaped grid system, that had tiny rice shaped batteries around it's outer perimeter. It had pine tree shaped antennas that had perfectly symmetrical branches with metallic looking little balls on the tip of every branch. It was slowly collapsing it's structure as it cooled to room temperature. I had never seen anything like it in my life. Finding this tech in my body explained many things I had wondered about the last twenty years. It explained why I heard a man's voice in my head sometimes. It explained why he pretended to be GOD that the things he said weren't always Godly. It explained why things got moved or hidden from me during my sleep, and why I was WATCHED CONSTANTLY through my OWN EYES. The FILTHY, DISGUSTING, LOWLIFE MONSTERS HAD HACKED MY BRAIN, and it was WORSE THAN RAPE! I told my local chief of police, when I reported finding it, that at least a woman can HEAL after being raped. There is no 'healing' from this, according to what Elon Musk says in his videos. He sells this stuff, though I cannot imagine why ANYONE in their right mind would EVER want it!! I found a picture of it right on DARPA'S website, under Obama Brain Initiative. I KNEW what would be in the vax when they said one was coming, and unfortunately, I was right. Dr Carrie Madej, and Dr Ricardo Delgado were some of the first to identify it in the shots. It's also in the masks/tests, and swabs, and NOW they are putting it in our FOOD/BEV AND MILK!!! I am here to tell you that this absolutely EVIL tech from HELL is FAR MORE than 'gene therapy'!!! It lets the filthy monsters see and hear every thought we have! It lets them talk to us mentally. It lets them even TAKE OVER OUR BODY during certain stages of sleep, and use OUR BODY to do whatever they WANT TO, and we have little or no memory of it, much less any CONTROL OVER IT! PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW WHAT THE SICK FREAKS ARE DOING TO US, and they MUST be stopped! I wouldn't do this to an ANIMAL, because even animals have a RIGHT to have PRIVATE THOUGHTS between them and GOD. They are also now putting this tech in all animal shots as well, HACKING ALL LIVING THINGS, so they can be REMOTE CONTROLLED by the sick freaks WHO THINK THEY ARE GOD! THIS TECHNOLOGY IS STRAIGHT OUT OF HELL ITSELF and the monsters MUST be held accountable for what they have done and are continuing to do! NOBODY HAD A RIGHT TO DO THIS TO ME OR ANYONE ELSE! NOBODY! EVER! The filthy monsters have been in MY BED, MY BATH, and MY BRAIN, the last TWENTY YEARS! Watching me through MY OWN EYES, while I bathed, changed clothes, any and everything, they SAW IT. HOW WOULD YOUI FEEL ABOUT BEING RAPED THIS WAY? I sure hope you didn't take the shots, use the other things, and God forbid you been drinking any MILK!! This stuff is called NEURAL LACE/HYDROGEL. Graphene oxide and polymer based tech that is straight out of Hell itself. Musk says it attaches to nerves and grows INTO the brain, and that it is PERMANENT. I pray to God he is wrong because I truly want my HUMANITY BACK! And he is LYING when he says that it cannot be injected through a normal needle, because it CAN if it is cold enough. It SHRINKS when it gets cold. It also doesn't need a CHIP, either, because it could easily make it's OWN! The stuff acts ALIVE in the body. Absolutely fascinating to watch.
I will gladly answer any questions you may have. These monsters love to torture and kill helpless, innocent little animals and the freaks tortured and killed FOUR of my greatly loved little dogs. The last one, my favorite, was tortured EVERY MONTH for over NINE YEARS, before we busted the agents using our CELL PHONE to put out the frequencies that were CAUSING those seizures. We busted them RED HANDED, and there is no denying what they are doing. They finally killed him Thanksgiving Day of 22, after making him go BLIND, causing organ failure, and shocking him every couple hours the last two days, till he couldn't hold out any more, and died in my arms. People, please don't sleep by anything digital, and keep your animals away from them as well! We also busted them hacking our washer/dryer outlet, and gas stove, so keep your appliances UNPLUGGED when not using them! If you hear an device making a strange or unusual sound, BLOCK IT by coughing, whistling, clapping, etc. and shut the device off FAST AS POSSIBLE.
A cubed meter of water weights 1 metric ton. Imagine how many tons a 30+ meter high wave with who knows what width would have.
I AINT READIN ALL THAT 💀 (bc im lazy AF😭💀)
That was really interesting thanks
I never imagined how catastrophic waves could be until last year when the flash floods hit a local city in my country Derna Libya. The collapse of a dam led to a freak wave that not only wiped 5 grand bridges but also killed thousands of people in less than an hour.
I saw tsunami and flood damages before but to see it completly uproot entire apartment buildings of 10 stories high made out of sturdy concrete was a reality check on how much powerful water can really be
A simple 2 or 3 meters wave is already a little wall , cant imagine a 20 M
But if the ocean didnt had some defense we had probably destroyed it in a few years
But that's not really a wave
@@kirkstinson7316which one
Thank you for your comment- I had never heard of the destruction in Derna. I went and did some reading and learning- my heart aches for the many lost, misplaced, and devastated from the damages. I can’t imagine. I’m certain there are still struggles there today, and my most heartfelt sympathies go out to those affected.
Have you not seen the videos of the tsunami that hit Japan? I think it was around 2011.
I was at Daytona when this happened, the day before we were able to walk out on a sand bar 40 yards into the ocean and it was only knee deep, the next night i believe the sand bar collapsed and caused the wave. I say it was a sand bar but it was much larger than just a small strip of sand my Mother and Father were not able to swim that well and while we were playing in the ocean a large group on stingray's swarmed around them and they panicked and started running the next thing I knew they were yelling for help because they stepped off of the bar and almost drowned I made it to my mother and another man with a float saved my father. I will never forget this incident. The next night is when the wave struck.
I hate drops in sand bars.
Ii'm your parents.
This video explains an occurrence that I saw when going 15 plus miles offshore fishing for mackerel out of New York waters in early March of 1973. I was on a on a boat called the Betty W II there was a 100 foot steel party boat called the Amberjack a few miles in front of us on rout to the West Farms. The ocean was flat and and suddenly the Amberjack disappeared for a moment and reappeared. I was in the cabin looking out facing the front window when all of a sudden the bow of the Betty W went straight down into this huge deep hole in a flat sea it was like the bow of the boat went straight down into a waterfall when we hit the bottom the boat shot straight back up unharmed. This wasn't a protruding wave, it was a deep cut of water on a flat ocean... In all these years I never saw anything like it again, but it was one hell of a scary roller coaster ride to say the least !!!!!
I cannot even imagine how you felt at this exact moment in your life's journey. How do you get back up and go back on the ocean again and again after this type of an experience? So was it like the water was just missing all of a sudden , like you ran your ship off of a massive water cliff or was your ship under the water as well before you hit the bottom and popped back up and how was there no dmg done to your ship? Your story is as fascinating as it is terrifying.
I was about 15 years old going offshore for mackerel . The 100 foot Amberjack was a few miles ahead and disappeared and came up. I was on the Betty W II a 70 foot party boat, and we went straight down into this cut of water, I was in the cabin looking straight out the window I saw the bow of the boat hit the bottom and shot straight up like a rocket. I was a young pup back around 1973/74 and always wondered what that was it happened so fast until I saw this video 🛥. IT WAS LIKE BEING ON A ROLLERCOASTER ON A FLAT CALM OCEAN. WEARD. !
Isn’t there some kind of condition that they say is responsible for a lot of the Bermuda Triangle disappearances. I think bubbles are coming out of the sea floor having something to do with volcanoes that make certain patches of ocean to have zero buoyancy, or something like that. Yours sounds different, but what a scary thrilling experience, the boat actually went straight down under the water hits the bottom and goes straight back up, that would freak me out!!
@@Loop1977 It was a long cut in the ocean a deep wall of water going straight down and a wall of water going straight up in a flat sea. When the bow of the boat hit the bottom of what I guess you'd call a wave, It was weird. Thankfully the boat didn't sink and came shooting straight up out of it like a rocket. It happened so fast I don't think anyone on bord knew what hit us. A natural phenomenon and at least it wasn't a natural disaster !
@@franktheo2055 thank you for explaining it, I was imagining it completely different. Must of been insane!!
In 1984, my Navy ship, a small ASW frigate, was caught in a hurricane in the Atlantic. At one point, a huge wave literally put us on our side! I found myself literally standing on the bulkhead, the door to my ET office at my feet. Opening it, I looked DOWN into the office. Then, with a shake my plucky little ship slowly righted herself. I still feel we should have sunk that night. We would have been another "disappearance". I guess God had other plans for us. My ship still exists, as a museum display ship.
😲 Even though the majority of my sailing has been done on small craft, I know enough about the water to understand how lucky (ironically) you were! I'm very glad you came through that! She must have been a cracking boat. Well built and well maintained. You and your mates saved her along with yourselves.
Yea you were really lucky
It’s good you made it out
The lord clearly had other plans for you and your mates later in life on that day, glad you made it out and thank you for your service.
dude, you lived a legend, just to have it slapped in a museum..
Anyone else feel like the quality on this channel has recently skyrocketed?
One small correction though, that's even... scarier than the info presented here.
The "Holes in the Ocean" around SA actually are referring to maybe the only scarier thing in the ocean than a rogue wave: a rogue hole or rogue trough.
Essentially, think of it like this. If a wave 2x the height of all the others in the area, the same can happen with a trough (the lowest point between waves). So, essentially, a hole 2x as deep as normal between waves opens underneath you.
While much harder to occur, this can/does happen, and will literally swallow ships whole.
When I was in my early 20's, my family went to Ventura Beach in California. My parents and son were on the shore and I waded probably 30 yards off shore. To my surprise, the water only came up to my bottom. I turned to see my dad on the beach with my son who were both waving at me, so I waved back. My dad started frantically pointing behind me. When I turned, there was a 12 to 15 foot wave at my back. Everything hit just right, luckily, all I could think to do was jump up and the wave caught me with my head above water and carried me quite gracefully back to shore. Although, I love the ocean, I don't turn my back on it, anymore. Not even in the Puget Sound, which is where we live now.
California is known for its large waves. 12 to 15 foot sounds pretty common for there. I'm used to the east coast and have ridden plenty of waves back into shore just for fun. Where I live now, some of our local beaches have sand bars about 50 to 100 feet off the beach which reduces wave height further.
You've learned since then that this is exactly the wrong thing to do, right?
To evade the force of a large wave, dive under it.
I’m from Oxnard and work in Ventura, I have video of the waves going over the pier a few weeks ago
I live up on the north coast, near Fort Bragg. Between here and Crescent city, we get those sneaker waves all the time. Tourists get caught out on the rocks when they hit, and get sucked in and drown. You can study the waves for a half hour, and be convinced your path along the rocks is safe, but then one wave hits that engulfs everything. Combined with rup tides, they dont stand a chance. There have been a few really stupid accidents, where peoples dogs get washed out, and they go in after the dog. The people drown but the dog lives. Theres signs everywhere to not try to save your dog. They have far more endurance than a human, and somehow arent as susceptible to the rip tides. It happens every year.
I also went from Oxnard to puget sound.
My Father was on a navy ship traveling to Tokyo late in 1945. While standing on the bridge, he observed waves up to 85 feet high. He knew his height above the water, and using trigonometry, calculated their magnitude. He was a physicist with a EE degree and was not the type to exaggerate. It occurred during a typhoon they were in.
with Trillions of $$ spent on military equipments, a fraction could have been used to develop advanced sonar mappings of the ocean floor world wide. This same technology could be used to search wrecks such as MS München. We can probably learn quite a bit from this particular wreck, at least what cause its mysterious sinking.
Before satellites there used to be a couple of weather ships that stationed off the west coast of BC about 500 miles out there at Station Papa. He said his berth was 80 feet above the water line and they used to take green water at that height. The North Pacific can be serious weather.
That's awesome. Do you know what shop he was on? Was it the I
USS INDIANAPOLIS BY CHANCE?
No, I don't recall his ship- but I'm sure it wasn't the Indianapolis. He was headed for Tokyo just after their surrender. He was stationed there (in Yakasuka sp?) for about 8 months. He said he never felt in danger despite the recent surrender. At first he carried a .45 ACP but after a couple of weeks, he quit taking a sidearm even when he traveled in to the city. @@DramaMustRemainOnTheStage
Did he use his measuring tape? I'm sure a 20 foot wave looks insane and huge! I bet people are exaggerating it big time. Not saying they don't happen.
As a physical oceanographer who has worked with planetary (Rossby) waves, I am impressed with how well these have been well explained in this video - a simplified explanation, of course, but still a scientifically accurate one and very easy to digest for the target audience. Also, few channels go beyond surface gravity waves (or just "waves" for most people) and enter the realm of internal waves or planetary waves. Outstanding for scientific outreach!

In my youth, I spent some time amongst the people of Samoa and Tonga. Some of the most beautiful sunsets man could ever see, and I've stood on cliffs and seen waves easily topping 60-70 feet. They knew how to read their waters, and avoided certain areas
What an absurd racist idea that a certain group of people have some special skill bestowed upon them, lol. You millennials are totally broken.
Lots of these waves between South America and Antarctica.
Isn't one of those places in California?
@@cdmarshall7448 The waves were knarly when I was stationed in San Diego.
My brother was stationed in SD too, Camp Pendleton. He mentioned a cliff that had 100 foot rogue waves. Killed a few in the 80's.
I remember when the movie The Poseidon Adventure premiered in 1972. There was criticism that the rogue wave that caused the ship to roll over was an impossibility.
They are real. Been there, done that, but my ship survived.
We saw another small ship, the USCGC Bear in the early 1980s, went through a huge wave. She was, for a thankfully brief moment, a submarine. The wave totally engulfed her head on, ripped all the stanchions from the deck, tore away the fiberglass cover of her main gun, and the front of the superstructure was set back several inches! We saw her just after, on her way to her homeport for repair.
Poseidon Adventure (1972) is an outstanding movie.
@@valmacclinchyBetter than the remake.
Love it; t me, water is 1 of the most dangerous natural phonemic force ever no matter what form its in (whether tsunamis,torrential snow, hurricanes ,icebergs, freak waves, avalanches, hailstones etc).
Maybe because ( unlike a fire)if u capsize, u have no solid footing t gain u bearings an rethink u situation, unlike a fire where on exiting a property ur on solid ground etc
How do u contain a hurricane/waves/the seas if ur caught up in a watery situation unlike a fire in a building? Only thing that scares me more is an earthquake - once again, a phenomenon that loosens ur feet from solidity.
It was a tsunami not a rogue wave.
While serving in the U.S. Navy in 1985, aboard the aircraft carrier, the USS Constellation CV 64. We were bout 100+miles NE of Main Island ("Hawaii"), when our ship (who's flight deck was 8 stories above the ocean in flat water) took a wave that came over the bow & was at least 30 feet high over the bow.!! INCREDIBLE sounds does a big metal ship make when weather & water r battling it.!!8^o ✌️
I was a fisherman in the North Sea when I was younger. Some of the waves I saw out there scared me onto land forever. I still have nightmares to this day. No ship could possibly survive those rogue waves. My older colleagues (including the captain) told of rogue waves 120ft+ breaking violently in the middle of the sea and sounding like freight trains. I read that the highest theoretical wave height with the current models is about 200ft. I guess it is limited by wind speed, because in the wave simulation pools they can make waves virtually as high as they want. Like towers of 1km+. It could even explain why low flying planes crashed in the Bermuda triangle.
I know they record wave heights some places, but I wish they had swarms of small solar powered drone boats that could roam the seas and find the real monsters. If they could record them on video, that would break the internet and nobody would ever go on a cruise ship again...
There was a video a couple months ago from CNN or the weather channel i believe and they actually had some kind of drone boat they sent out into a hurricane this year and it's pretty epic, you should Google it. I agree with your thoughts on it scaring people to land forever i almost drowned in a riptide when i lived in southern California and that was enough for me
The cruise industry is probably behind in suppressing information on these giant waves. Haha.
As soon as you said North Sea I thought oh boy they have definitely seen some gnarly waves!
That 🌊 could explain some of the disappearances at the Bermuda Triangle. But the main reason I'm sure planes go missing is the sudden down draft of air/wind. There is said to be like an energy vortex there. It creates a funnel/drain and can sink ships! 😳 A similar phenomenon happens in the skies as well. Pilots have said they've been forced down hundreds of feet In seconds from air currents! Has to do with that vortex IMO!!
exactly! I think rogue waves could account for Bermuda triangle disappearances.
"The Atlantic is a cold, murderous place"
I know exactly what you mean. I was a Merchant Navy Seaman. Once sailing from Bordeaux to The Azores, it was five days and five nights of living hell. Had we not taken the longer route around Sao Miguel Island to get some cover, I wouldn't be here to tell the tale. At 4:13, the Energy Endurance. I saw something like that.
I graduated from the Azores and definitely seen and heard of huge waves from the Brave Hearts who surfed and fish there. No clue how big, but too big for me. We were a Rock in the Alantic. One of rules I remember: No umbrellas. I FAFO by using an umbrella. Gust of wind picked me up and carried me towards the 20ft fence that seperated us the rocky coastline. Luckily it dropped me down. In those frigid waters are Great White Sharks, Portuguese Man of Jellyfish and other Apex predators. To this day, I NEVER touched an Unbrella again.
Just came back from Sao Miguel. Saw some big waves from the top of the mountain, looking into the horizon.
I was in Daytona Beach for that 1991 rogue wave. My band was playing a show at The Pier...obviously right on the ocean. The only way to get our gear into the venue was to wait for low-tide and drive down the beach to the gear elevator that went from the beach up the 30+ feet to the pier. I remember thinking that I'd never seen the tide so low...so far out into the ocean...crazy. We loaded in and left...the wave hit an hour later. Absolutely bizarre.
Perhaps you experienced a low grade tsunami given your description of having never seen the tide so low?
"I remember thinking that I'd never seen the tide so low......the wave hit an hour later."
That's a firm telltale of a tsunami. I've no idea why they included it into a video about rogue waves -- which by definition only happen out at sea.
That’s a earthquake not rogue
@@ivan_pozdeev_u nothing is rogue, it was formed by wind over far fetch and long hours consistently. It’s not rogue, that’s just a short word to explain a long concept
@hoopslaa5235 ,I've always said that, but still, people don't accept it as truth/fact.
Great information, I knew about most, but learned about a few more types of waves. One additional piece of information: almost all these waves are indeed the transfer of energy through the water and the water itself only undulates vertically; except for tsunamis, those actually transfer a large amount of water linearly (or rather circular outward from the point of origin), which has two very distinctive effects: they grow in height only close to shore where they have to keep moving the same amount of water-volume over the ever shallower seabed, and secondly they don't "stop" at the shore, but keep flowing all that water inland (sometimes kilometers)
for sure you didnt saw those video of tsunai formed far from the coast, for saying that tsunamis wave only gets bigger when close to shore hahahahahahahahahaaahah, i ve already sail on a sea with a tsunamis incoming (2005) and we wre about 70 feet tall above the sea, you can find the video here on youtube. this video was made by a coworker on aother boat
Yrs ago when I was in the navy, I was on a 320ft ship. Caught in a typhoon by Hong Kong,but whilst in the eye,about 4 hrs into the calm eye, we got hit by a wave that was taller than our mast,which was about 134 ft. We hit it head on,the whole ship,I mean everything including the mast,radar,weapons everything. We went into a trough and keep going through we lost everything but recovered pretty quick.we were in the wave for. About 11 to 13 seconds,enough to mess us up. Pretty rad.
Oh no!!
What a story! Thanks!
Exactly, this video and it's info are complete trash. We've seen three hundred foot waves in the North Sea well over 100 years ago and survived to tell the tale. It's not uncommon at all to see 100ft waves .
I experienced a small rogue wave back in the late 90s. Me and a friend had been fishing in Boca Grande Fla. and decided to stop by the Nacomis Jetty near Venice Fla.. We walked out to the end passing a guy set up fishing about half way down the rocks and asked if he was having any luck, he replied no it was to rough. the Jetty is a pile of rocks at the entrance to the intercoastal waterway in that area and rises about 8-10 feet above the water level at a normal high tide with an asphalt walkway on top. Me and my friend were just standing at the end enjoying the view of the moon setting and the sweet salty air when the water level rose to our waists, pushed us back a step or two then forward the same before dropping to the normal level around 14 feet lower. I looked at my friend he looked dumbfounded and I thought of the guy fishing (at the level he was at he was under 6-8 feet when the water rose), his gear was spread over 20 feet of the side of the rocks and he was gathering it as fast as he could and took of running for shore. Luckily it came at around 2 am and any buildings along that beach were over 150 yards back. If it had come during the day when people were on the beach I'm certain there would have been injuries.
Ive been a surfer for 50 years. A wave can double up with another wave and double and triple in height right there in front of you when 2-3-4 waves just all combine. I can imagine is the deep sea several waves popping up randomly and wow a gigantic wave is made in front of you. It's amazing AND A LITTLE SCARY
I picked up a book at the library called "the wave"I forgot the woman's name who wrote it she followed noah and local surfers in Hawaii knew more about waves then noah! There's some weird s***out there.
I can tell the scientists who thought waves follow harmonic waveforms never spent much time with a boogeyboard or surfboard. Any kid who has knows every now and then there’s a wave that’s much larger than any of the ones before or after it which comes and pummels them. Anybody who has set up a picnic just short of the surf has learned that the hard way too.
Yeah, waves definitely do combine.

I was once scaling a rock face along a beach with a friend. I heard a roaring sound behind me and spun to see a wave towering me. I was about 10 feet above the other waves, which were easily close to 10 feet tall already. Fortunately, I managed to tuck my head onto my arm and grab a crack as it hit me and completely submerged me. When the water fell back down I scrambled so fast up that cliff I felt like a cartoon character. Probably one of the scariest moments of my life. Makes for a fun and epic story now though.

I lived in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Lake-effect snow is a thing. At the very tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula there is a sign that shows the most snow they've ever gotten. It was 25 feet.
Whoever said lake effect snow didn't exist ? Ask anyone who lives in Buffalo about it.
My dad’s side of the family is from Calumet and I spent many summers a child staying at the light house keeper’s cabin in Eagle Harbor. Suffice to say, that tall sign always fascinated me- as did all the tales of the dangers of Superior in the winter. Now I want a pasty, lol.

I crossed the Atlantic from Southhampton, England to New York on a small Cunard liner in the late summer of 1969. It was stormy for 3 full days and the seas were huge. I grew up sailing and I loved to be on the water, so while just about everybody else was done in by the turbulence, I went to the stern of the ship and rode up and down, holding onto the railing. Sometimes I was weightless when the ship sank into a trough, and often I could look up through the beautiful green waves against the stormy sky. I'd guess that the waves averaged 40 feet. Needless to say, this was _incredibly_ foolish! But wonderful. Finally, after a few hours, one of the crew noticed me and made me come inside. Though I was bummed, he might have saved my life.

Currents moving in opposite directions, where there are islands off the coast of a larger land mass causes a speeding up of these currents, add wind and waves gaining each other's energy and this can happen. That is why it happens off the coast of South Africa and off the coast of South America. If you want to observe this phenomenon on a smaller scale, fill a bath tub up about halfway with water and then stir the water in as best a circle as you can, with a cupped hand, staying as far outside the perimeter as you can and once you get the water moving good, take your hand out and watch how the water moving opposite on each side of the tub begins to affect the waters in the middle.
Every once in a while, you will see a rogue wave, larger than the rest. Now think of the trade winds moving from east to west near either side of the equator, but then the jet stream is moving the opposite direction (see typical weather pattern across the US), now imagine how the opposing winds over time will begin to behave similar to how I described in the bathtub experiment above.
I ve been fishing for 50 years at porto leone in the Otinanai bay and what I have experience in late 1985 was beyond belief. A 150 ft wave smashed everything, sent our 30ft boat on the mountain and the only reason we didn't sink was beacause our boat was stuck on an enormous tree's top. Boat is still there btw.
The liner Queen Elizabeth (the Queen Mary's bigger sister) experienced 5 rogue waves in her lifetime. She was extremely lucky every time to be facing the the waves, each of which swept over the bridge all the way aft. It was lucky too that they struck very early in the morning when no one was outside on deck.
I believe the Queen Mary suffered two or three, the QE2 also.
On a U-Tube video about freak waves, one crew member from the QE2 wrote in the comments about his experience.
The original Queen Elizabeth with its displacement of 84,000 tons used as much steel as a modern ship of 200,000 tons today.

Good video, but at 11:40 seconds the narrator mentions a possible meteorite strike causing a wave near Daytona Beach, FL. Meteorites are the leftover fragments of of a meteor impact, the part meteorite hunters search for around the earth. As this video is 9 months old and almost 2400 comments I am probably not the first person to offer this observation.
Waves such as this are not shocking to me. Many many years ago I used to work on a shrimping vessel and we encountered a 90 ft swell. The ship looked like a child's toy in comparison to this behemoth of a wave. Thanks to an extremely intelligent, sophisticated, calm captain we are all alive to tell about it. I know it's part of his job, but I have always believed that certain captains do not receive enough credit for all the good they do.
Yeah, after 40 years on the FL coast, I'm happy and comfortable 980' above sea level. At 1200 or so miles from the nearest coast, it would be the mother of all waves to get me here. Wait, what's that swishing noise?

My godfather worked on offshore oil rigs for weeks at a time, he once told me that until you've seen a 100ft wave you can't grasp how powerful the ocean is, and how powerless we are when it comes to nature.
I don't understand how scientists didn't believe waves could exceed thirty feet in height, when there are CLEARLY visible waves WAY higher than that right off the shores of California (60'+ at Mavericks), Hawaii (60'+ at Pe’ahi, aka Jaws), and Portugal (80'+ at Nazare, possibly even over 100').
different sort of wave.. they are compression waves
Not to mention Cortez Bank. Cortez has had 100ft waves.
If you got one of these oceanic freak waves hitting any shoreline, you should run, it would devastate the shoreline it hit. I think the big waves (60ft+) you see at Nazare etc are different waves forced up by the shallow seabed they come up against but they are nowhere near that big before the come ashore 😁
You are right. That's nonsense. The Schrödinger equation was published in 1925 and deals with waves in quantum mechanics. This equation can be used in the "real world" (our scale) to explain rogue waves... and rogue holes or rogue troughs.
Maybe its the video makers talking BS lol
You've forgotten to mention the square waves, they're interesting AND good to be aware of. Excellent video.
Thank You for this Video- it was extremely informative and really well articulated- I learned a lot! Fascinating stuff!
This is not a rogue wave but a trough story.
We were sailing down the coastline from Canada to SFO. We were fine as we were well out to sea. Other sailors did not go out as far as us and were caught in a storm - terrifying some of their crew who called MAYDAY - while the Captain/owner was deploying a drogue off the bow.
So the Coast Guard helicopter came and they were obliged to abandon the sailboat, get into the water and then put themselves into a lowered basket to be lifted aloft.
When we met up with the Captain in SFO, he said as he climbed into the basket - at the top of a trough - he was looking DOWN on the TOP of his 70ft mast - that’s how deep was the trough - his sailboat at that moment in the bottom of the trough. Those are massive wave formations.
PS He later, at great expense, found and retrieved his boat - it was quite happily bobbing along - undamaged.

With the cargo bay doors not clamped shut she took on water and likely started to list. The waves, however, were the determining factor.
I live on Lake Superior and growing up here we learn from a young age not to mess with it.
Ah fellow Wisconsinite? I live down by madison so i have Michigan i go to. I have been to superior a few times, locals always tell me the same thing, and most sailors tell me superior is arguably worse than the open ocean in some ways
@@Asynurr Minnesota.
In the early 90s I was vacationing @ Virginia Beach. As I walked out of the water, my attention was directed to my family on the beach. I remember a wave retreating barely over my feet. Dry sand was 10-15 ft ahead. A rogue wave hit me square in the middle of my back. It slammed me so hard into the sand that the whole side of my face was raked pretty good. Couldn't believe it.
lol " thats not a rogue wave bro!!!" yes it was. it snuck up on my ass
It happens a lot more often than 10,000 years, within the last 10 years it's a phenomena that has been studied more closely in specialized indoor wave generating facilities to figure out how and why it happens. It did used to be passed off by coast guard officials as a random event or fictional event made up by superstitious sailors.
Yeah I said same, this guy did very little research on rogue waves and recent research thats shown it occurs nearly monthly
you both didnt watching all the video, cause right after he sayning 1 in a 10 000 years, he saying the opposite, that what the scientist though, but they were wrong, and all scientist now saying that rogue wave happen at around 10 /3weeks so its make 3 rogue wave by week, according to sientist, and to the what dude in the video saying........ pple like you , who think are intellignet prove your stupidity by not watching all the video before commenting something as idiot as you said@@jpslaym0936
Didn’t he say in the video that scientists once believed it happens once every 10,000 years and then discovered it happens way more often?
@@musicftw711 That's what I was saying, I mean he had said it around 8:40, don't know what vid these 2 turds watched lmao
@@jpslaym0936 the guy in the video covered that
On the pacific ocean people were fishing. But at night the ocean was pitch black. Causing the people on the boat to not see waves. When the max wave came at night they didn't see it so they all died but many people survived. Sharks had smelled their blood so they died.
I was on a cruise ship, never knew what it was called but, i remember it vividly. I was about 12 standing on the deck, when i hear people suddenly screaming louder than ive ever heard, and there was so many people to, my ears were on fire, i looked up and there it was, a wave almost 70 ft tall, but sense we were only 926(i asked how many miles away we were cause im not patient) milee away, the rescue boats got there very quickly, some people were dead, some were in hospitals i remember waking up from surgery getting told i had maggots in my throat from the water that i consumed, only one of my parents survived tho, my father, he still tells me story about the sea, he was a sailor.
You're a true Survivor. Sorry for your loss. Happy you and your father have each other.
I'm sorry for your loss. I'm sure it was scary, thank you for sharing this with us.
God bless you
At the time of the MV Munchen disaster I was working with Land's End Coastguard who were involved in co-ordinating the search. It was very difficult to believe a vessel of such size could 'disappear' within seconds. A subsequent 'event' involved the QE2 reporting that her bow rails had been stove in while returning to Southampton from New York.
I heard that story of the QEII in another way. There was a Cat 5 hurricane over the island of Hispaniola and it sent up a 95 foot wave which the captain was warned about. He was quoted as saying,”It was white knuckle time.” They had to turn the bow into the wave.
You are probably right. We dealt with so many incidents. At the time Land's End Coastguard was responsible for Search and Rescue of the entire North East Atlantic ! @@russellking1924
HMS Glasgow got hit by a wave over 90 feet she went over to 47 degrees, lost a 5 ton winch and had considerable minor damage and floods
Very informative and thought-provoking. Maybe explains ships drifting around without passengers who seemed to be in the middle of meals. Possibly explains some Bermuda Triangle events? Thanks for this story.
if a rouge wave washed the people overboard as you think,
wouldn't the plates/food be gone as well???
I was the same thing Patsy. But it still doesn't explain planes. Who says there has to be a single explanation.
Theres a certain sound that can affect people at sea that they believe could be a reason for boats showing up with no sailors on board in areas like the bermuda triangle i believe they did a test with the sound in a cinema and people went crazy trying to escape the sound and people died. Makes you believe that it could be safer in the water then the boat say during a storm. If i can find the video ill post it for you guys
@@nathanhansen1690 Still waiting for that video homie..
A couple of days ago, I was on the Norwegian Gem and on our way to Bermuda, experienced 60-knot winds and we all could barely sleep. Glad to know this is somewhat normal and I wasnt experiencing this happening for the first time ever.
sounds terrifying!
I wonder.. about the Bermuda triangle if any ship that went in and did not return.. it could be because a rogue wave.. growing up I heard about the kraken, other giant sea creatures, maybe a giant whirlpool (had a terrifying nightmare about one of those) thankgod I don't live near the ocean.. the only deep lake I ever swam in was lake superior and that lake is 1,332 feet deep probably the 2nd or 3rd deepest in the US
@@ApokalyptikNM there’s always the possibility!
That is truly some half-assed animation right there.
My grabdfather was in the navy and the merchant marines and he told me about several he encountered during WW2 in the North Atlantic. He said the only thing that saved them was experience and the size of the ships. A lot of people did not believe him until the 90s when scientific evidence of the phenomenon started being documented. He also said they were common in the North Atlantic and Africa. He was only ever afraid of the sea when they were stalked by submarines and encounters with these waves
My father-in-law lost a friend on the München. He was Chief engineer for over 20 years and he had also a journey where his ship was hit by a freak wave. Luckily their ship was empty so they past the wave unharmed. But his captain saw this wave coming and make his last wish. My father-in-law was in his room on a couch and fly through the whole room when the wave hit the ship.
Most excellent. I enjoyed it. A lot of outstanding info.
Random note: These ships were called "LASH". That stood for "Lighter Aboard SHip". The lighters are basically small barges (filled internally with the cargo) that were picked up with an onboard crane, then lowered at the stern, to the water.
I sailed one converted to regular containers in 1980. Terrible ships for the crews! Hotter than hell, small cramped enginerooms also!
50-60 ft waves are nothing in the north Pacific/Bering seas! I've been on a tanker that was basically a submarine for 5 or 6 days in a storm traveling the same speed and direction we were. 80-90 knt winds, 60-90 ft waves!
I remember when I lived on the Oregon Coast, we knew some people who were with the Coast Guard. They said that 70ft waves are not uncommon. Kind of scary.
That's .the.way.it.is.destiny.takes.brave.men.to.strange.places.just.to.see.to.andtell.mistryss
And the Cost Guard would know. They train at the mouth of the Columbia because it’s so wild-challenging training. I always thought the Pacific was wilder than the Atlantic but I guess when you are away from shore it’s the same…..
My new nightmare is the ocean
My father was 26 years in the Navy, He was a line officer and a mustang, the term for someone who rises in rank from Seaman Recruit to officer. He was XO on a ship ported at the Army base in Bayonne and he took me out to the sea with him. I got a little seasick and the officers at breakfast were talking about storms they had been in at sea. I asked my father how big the biggest waves he had experienced at sea were. He told me "about a hundred feet". Another officer said to me that as the ship was tossed about on the ocean, his stomach would rise with the waves and the contents would fly out on teh trip back down. I lived on Guam and saw the size of the waves that would kick up from teh typhoons and crash on teh reefs - 40 to 50 feet on typhoons that hit neighboring islands. Watch the storm part of the film "The Caine Mutiny" to see how strong steel ships can get tossed around like small boats in the bathtub.
its wholesome looking at the comments and seeing people sharing their own stories :)
, Fantastic Explanation
Beautiful video, simple and informative. Always a pleasure being here
I just like how they say it happens every 10,000 years? How the hell do they know? 😊
Makes you wonder if the same assumptions are used on world ending asteroid collisions.
More then likely, rough guesstimatetions, an assumption of weve been around x many years only seen x many so they should be roughly this rare. Also, hole in the ocean is a phenomenon where a literal hole opens up, sometimes big sometimes small, always terrifying.
Its a click bait title. Scumbag makes a claim in the title. Then goes to prove he lied. LOL
Good point!
I believe that was based on the math that was done up to that time including factors such as max wind speeds. Though it seems to me that if you already had dozens or hundreds of eyewitness accounts that once every 10,000 years would necessarily discount all of those. As with so many things in science, the prevailing wisdom is largely based on scenarios along the lines of "Hey, is there life on the ocean floor?" the prevailing wisdom is "How could there be? it's too dark and too much pressure." until someone asks, 'But did you go look?" and when the technology to go look becomes available and we go look the prevailing wisdom needs to be tossed out, and with the new data discovered, then the explanations of where and how life can exist get updated. Same thing here - all the math in the world doesn't matter if you are missing key factors that define the equations necessary for your model to match reality.
All of you telling your tales in the comments are some OG ALPHA MALES.
RESPECT!
Very informative video, with great imagery to illustrate the concepts. Thanks!
Nature is more than capable of producing incredible energy outputs. It’s not hard to imagine that when the forces of gravity, wind, and water currents create the right wave frequencies, it can build into something amazingly powerful. Similar to how the right sound frequency can cause increasing distortions in glass. Except with water, there is no solid shape to harshly limit the energy growth. It would be scary to imagine the size a rogue wave could reach if earth’s gravity were less.
thanks for tuning in!
You should search Joe Rogan Great Flood. Very interesting discussion postulating "The Great Flood" and what happened. They were saying there was evidence for 1000'+ waves.
Munchen is pronounced “Moon chn”. In English Munich.
Pier pressure lol 😅
@@hamishanderson6738 Oof. Do you have a valid dad joke license?
Both rogue wave theories depend on an additive process. On top of that, a lot of big storms have rotating wind patterns. The rotating winds means that you're dealing with waves running multiple directions. It's no surprise that you can have 2, 3, or 4 waves aligning just right from different directions to add enough energy to each other to create a rogue wave.
These are not known as rogue waves as they are expected and common in high wind storms. What you are referring to is called spike waves and have a much higher frequency in extreme conditions. Although the science is similar Rogue waves are a much different animal and occur at a much lower frequency in mild, normal or any conditions which is why they were thought to be a myth for so long. They are unpredictable. Spike waves are very predictable with the major variables being wind speed and direction in relation to current. Example. If a winter storm rolls through Cape Horn with a forecasted wind speed of over 70 knots. It’s a guarantee the average wave height will be upwards of 40 feet with wave spikes as high as 80 feet or more. Those are extremely high waves but they are not rogue waves.
@@garrettroberts7937 from what I understand about rogue waves they are also spike waves, just the conditions that you find them the frequency of multiple waves adding up to these big waves is less frequent. You do have various wave sources across the ocean.
dude fuck theory go talk to a sailor who's been in the rougher seas, this stuff is not at all 'once in 10k years'
correct. see it all the time. dangerous.
aren't they called rogue waves because they appear "out of nowhere" i.e not in a big storm?
Loved the scenes from Titanic in the intro! I love that movie ❤
In the 1990s I worked in The Netherlands for a gas producing company. Most of the production was offshore in the North Sea, that is typically around 30m deep. Most of the platforms at the time were unmanned (now all) designed to withstand the 100 year wave. This required a gap of 17m between mean high tide and the lowest deck.
On a night in about 1998 theer was a storm with a north-westerly gale that coincided with an exceptionally high tide. The wind pushed the sea southwards causing flooding in the East of England before arriving at thr Dutch & German coasts.
One gas platform was almost wiped out, the lowest deck having been stripped of all its machinery and the higher decks very severly damaged. No other platform in the vicinity sustained significant damage.
the conclusion reached was that the hugh mas of water hitting the Dutch/German coastlines (that form a kind of arc) had rebounded and that 3 waves had met just at the point of this one platform.
Design criteria were subsequently revised and de-manning by automation accelerated.
"Design criteria were subsequently revised and de-manning by automation accelerated. " The robotics union would like a word with you.
I think you mentionimg of rebounding off the coastline is a great point to note
I almost got washed to sea on a destroyer. The sound of the wave sounded like a monster. When it hit me I held a rail and went horizontal for 30 secs. Felt like being water boarded.
My theory would be that 2 waves meet and become one big wave.
To explain it a bit more logically, I think the ship has a certain mass and it displaces the water around the ship. This causes 2 smaller waves to meet, which then become one big wave and hit the ship back. only that it happens on both sides of the ship and thus 2 30m high waves from the right and left hit the ship together and press together again and thus become a 60-80 m wave.
If the ship is pushed upward, and one of the two waves is higher than the other, the ship will be tilted, if it is on the side of the wave, and then "swallowed" by the waves
It's just a theory, take it with humor and maybe I've helped someone with it.
I wish you all a wonderful day ^^
The satellite scan shown in the vidro shows that rogue waves happen without the presence of ships
I guess this validates my fear of the ocean.
Earthquake! Oh darn, there goes the other fear.
Me too 😂
@@brodriguez11000 Meh.. ive been in multiple quakes here in CA. Largest was over 6.5. Anything less than a 5.5 produces nothing but a YAWN from me lol. Its nothing. It does get exciting though once its over a 6. Things start to jump around the house all on their own lol.
You're right to be afraid of the ocean 100 ft waves happen all the time in the north sea and here they talk like its something extraordinary.
I grew up in Central Florida and use to surf daily and on the biggest days the waves were 4-6 ft and with major storms sitting way off shore they got upwards of 8 ft. So hearing that Daytona Beach had a 18 ft wave hit the shoreline is unbelievable .it's easy to imagine this size waves in California . Hawaii .and countless other locations all around the world cause well it happens on a regular basis but to hit a Florida coastline is truly a once in a lifetime thing or maybe a few in a lifetime maybe but if I was out sitting on my board in a lineup waiting for a big set to roll in and saw a 18 ft monster heading towards me I believe I would paddle out hoping to get out past it's breaking point instead of paddling in to catch it lmfao .
I just moved to Daytona, can’t wait to learn to surf
What I don't understand is when the narrator says that they considered seismic activity versus a landslide. Landslides produce waves with shorter wavelengths and would crest like a giant wave. Waves produce by seismic activity have longer wavelengths and move in more like a flash flood and would come farther inland.
@@Anthony-ru7sk The only down side of learning to surf In Daytona Beach or Anywhere in Central Florida is a real challenge when you have at 2-3 ft .at best 4 ft .But I recommend you travel like 10 miles south to New Smyrna Beach (Ponce Inlet) it's the best break within 100 miles of Daytona whether you go north or south . Only problem with surfing Florida now is its become Shark Bite Capital of the world . I grew up in Orlando in the late 70s early 80s and it wasn't like this back then . We would stay in the water from sunrise to sunset all summer long and can only think of one or two shark bitesin a 5-10 year span .but for some reason starting around 2005 going forward especially the last 10 years there are millions of sharks swarming all around the Florida's east coast .I've literally seen videos of surfers paddling out jumping over sharks to get out to the lineup . There are shark bites happening almost on a weekly if not daily basis throughout the year . So be careful .most the times it's small bites amounting in having to get a few stitches on your ankle or calves
@@johnhagan582 - They need to eat too. If they can't get fish they're going to find alternate sources. I used to surf decades ago. I don't think I will ever get a chance to be in the ocean again. It's a little sad.
Nah brah, you gotta charge that shit.
Im sure the spin and tilt of the earth contributed to the water moving too
Back in the mid 1970s I was stationed on a US Navy ship. We were stationed at the North SAR (Sea & Air Rescue) station. That was our location in the North China sea. A rather strong typhoon built up and traveled into our location. We were experiencing 50-foot waves that worked very hard to attempt to capsize us. For 4 days rolled and tossed in that storm. Unless you had mandatory duties, your off-duty time was spent in a passageway with your back on one bulkhead and your feet braced in the opposite bulkhead.
During that time I had 3 8-hour bridge watches as the officer of the deck. During one of those watches we were rolled 26° to starboard. If we had not been hit by a similar monster wave that stood us back up, we would have capsized. Fortunately, we had only 7 sailors injured.
On that 4th day I was tossed down a ladder into our birthing space. Ended up messing up my left knee which ended up requiring surgery.
I will never forget that storm or the attempt by nature to make up a rusting pile of steel on the ocean floor. P.S. Try living off nothing but cold hotdogs and bottled cool-aid for 4 days while you attempt to not be thrown where you do not want to go, by seas that were proving just how insignificant we humans are. 😢😮
I'd be puking up anything I ate anyway. My best friend was a Navy rescue swimmer. She hid her pregnancy to deploy on the Reagan at it's commission. One tough chick!
No way could scientists have believed, up until 1995, that the maximize ocean wave height was 30 feet. I've watched home video footage, of my Alaskan fisherman friends, fighting waves much much larger than 30 feet.
My theory for rouge waves is when the two different types of waves steel energy from each other, it does form a bugger wave, and maybe the moons gravity gets stronger and that lifts the two combined waves together? (I’m most likely wrong I’m 10

I've worked off the west coast of New Zealand for many years. It's very common to get a set of 3 waves bigger than the norm.
The 3 sisters can indeed be found everywhere.
They can happen anywhere and the absence of a storm doesn't mean your safe. Off the coast of CA, my friends mom was out on a point when a huge wave came out of relatively calm sea and washed her away to her death. Her husband saw it happen and said that the swells were 6-8', but the wave was more than 20', completely engulfing the point.
Witness apart from the spouse? If not that's convenient and suspicious.
So tragic; he can never un-see that..
It’s actually vary common up here in Northern California we call them sleeper waves

If it weren't for Gordon Lightfoot, almost know one would know of it.
Cause that’s not what happened to them.
@@Devinengel089 agreed... never know for sure but there were three seas bernie cooper mentioned
I knew about the three sisters... however, I had never heard that that is what hit the Edmund Fitzgerald... I really wonder how they can know that! Pretty sure she did not report in after getting hit...
From my study of what happened- I believe that the Fitzgerald encountered waves past Caribou Island, resulting in deep wave troughs that slammed the ship into the lake floor, rupturing the keel.
