All that ocean and they still collide. When I was boating and fishing in the Florida Keys, twice I had the right of way and I had room to give way and I did to avoid a collision in all that open ocean.
This is the VSL Marco and the Harmid. Marco was actually nearly stopped ready to anchor and large ship didn't adjust course as they thought the Marco was continuing through. This was the large ships fault after investigation
It’s amazing how such gigantic ships moving so slowly in such a huge open ocean can manage to crash into each other. Edit: stop honking, we know you’re there
well it is laid out pretty clear who had right of way in this situation.... scontent-msp1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/117946056_10159002624040101_4421440445590266287_n.jpg?_nc_cat=111&ccb=2&_nc_sid=730e14&_nc_ohc=Y2O6pNyFuPMAX87c-M0&_nc_ht=scontent-msp1-1.xx&oh=fb9ea58572d54b025e82fadb54fc4022&oe=5FE98F41
They look slow but they are at speed for such a large body and soo much energy is involved, even a slight contact results in considerable damage to both of them.
aye, aye captain. I believe we'll impact tomorrow afternoon. We should sound the horn now to let them know we will impact them. In the mean time, Ill get some sleep.
This completely baffles me. I mean how can you miss or not miss a skyscraper laying on its side. These ships are giant. I just can't believe this happens. But it does. LOL.
With all the modern computer equipment controlling these ships you'd think a collision would be almost impossible. Having said that this seems like an incredibly busy shipping lane. Where is this?
@@masterenos thati complete nonsense. Under the IRPCS size has nothing to do with how the give way vessel is determined and what action it should take. Also, in this particular situation the vessel it was being filmed from was at anchor, so it was the vessel being filmed that was at fault.
One-half of all ships captains are proudly occupying the bottom of their graduating class, and there is that one (1) person in each and every class. -C
Wow they apparently give out credentials to anyone who buys a box of Captain Crunch. How is this even possible with both ships having watch keepers responsible for alerting the officers and bridge crew who are using state of the art radar etc to avoid this very kind of incident!
So reassuring seeing all those tankers hanging around together with such skilled operators and impeccably maintained craft. Horn works great.
lol
Fortunately, there was no oil spill
A ship carrying RED paint hit a ship carrying BLUE paint.
Both crews were MAROONED!
i laughed too hard at this xD
ok here's your like now get out.
Take your thumbs up and GOOOO!
Ooooooooohhhhh!
Andrew Dice Clay
Nahhh ,blue and red is violet
If the damage is over $500 you're supposed to have the police come out and file a report...
Legend has it you can still hear the horn echo to this day
Notice how the constant blowing of the ships horn greatly reduced the amount of damage!
All ships do that in the event of a collision my guy
@@adrianwelgemoed9562 Can you explain Why they do that GUY?
@@easystreet1888 they do that to alert all ships in the vicinity to know and for the crew to make alarm to proceed to their distinctive responsibilities in case of that emergency...
Agreed. It would be a lot more useful if they just gave a few blasts every ten seconds and give people time to think and react properly.
cmsracing 😂😂
All that ocean and you two geniuses run a couple buildings into each other
Unfortunately 2 U.S Navy warships with the best navigation system in the world were rammed by merchant ships.lol.
Disgraceful seamanship by bridgecrew someone will loose their tickets.
No kidding hey
@speechless BS......you clearldy didnt watch the first 25 seconds of this video. The Marco rammed the Iranian tanker.

Thxu, for your follow up. I appreciate.
It’s like a turtle and a slug running into each other on a football field
haaaaahahaha
That’s a creative description!
with one exception the kinetic energy is huge .

These are the friendlies that constantly run into you in World of Warships.
Capt you did an amazing job..
FYI constant horn blowing is used in to alert other ships in the vicinity of the incident.
The sound of the whistle alerted the crew what had happened
Thumbs up to you all for that evasive measure.
Looks like they both dropped Anchors at the end to swap insurance details!!!!
That "smaller" tanker was absolutely enormous what the hell was the boat they were filming from.WOW ! How do they even build that?
Hitting a parked ship at anchor is not going to look good on your resume.
It's not on anchor , it's making way
@@vbor8433 , negative Marco was anchored, in my opinion.
The port anchor is in the water but it’s laying back on it so maybe it was quickly dropped
Marcos is anchored ..its nuc i guess?
Good thing is that he saved 20% by switching to Geico.
Yeah , but safe drivers save 40% . So in this case he lost 100% . Lol
All full ahead..aye Captain.
Great camera work Stevie wonder
I can't believe that the Ocean is too small for ships to avoid each other.
way to go Saheeb
Watch how close I can come to that ship. Here, hold my beer.
"Damage control parties to the port bow! Initiate Flex Seal Protocol!"
3:48 Take their license plate, their license plate...
Very professional
heard over the radio right after the collision - "now look wut u dun dun"
Keep going! You're good,you're good you're good! aaaaand stop.
Capt Apu it's back to the quickie Mart for you.
Excellent Iranian man
GOOD Arabic GENTLEMEN.
Awesome 😀
Must be too big to see lol
nice shakey cam work bud
The ships were just trying to find each other “Marco .....polo “
was wondering how you did a pit maneuver with a vessel that size
It was the day my Ship Horn Melted Down!
That's high steaks right there, hotdamn !!
cool...i like ship collisions
Huupz...amazing
Look the VLCC's wake to port! The other vessel was anchored...
When Master says, carry on we have enough space to cross her
Heyy! I'm driving HERE!
im pretty sure it was the cyclist at fault here.
@@MrJoelDavies loved the comment friend!
It always is
Neither ship was wearing a helmet nor high-visibility clothing SMH 😔
@@Mikey-xz4vn Or masks !
I am surprised that there appears to be so little damage
Larson! Captain? Bring up the duck tape!

We have rules of the road sir
They look like they are moving slow but they are using so much power that the reaction time is drastically reduced
well it is laid out pretty clear who had right of way in this situation.... scontent-msp1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/117946056_10159002624040101_4421440445590266287_n.jpg?_nc_cat=111&ccb=2&_nc_sid=730e14&_nc_ohc=Y2O6pNyFuPMAX87c-M0&_nc_ht=scontent-msp1-1.xx&oh=fb9ea58572d54b025e82fadb54fc4022&oe=5FE98F41

There is something called as 'momentum'. Try learning physics
aye, aye captain. I believe we'll impact tomorrow afternoon. We should sound the horn now to let them know we will impact them. In the mean time, Ill get some sleep.
This is a peaceful neighborhood ...nuff with the horn
wow very long ship!!
Esto es un "besito" el altamar😎
I didn’t see you coming!
that'll rub right out with a couple hundred gallons of buffing compound!!
mrabrasive51 haha
Coffee can and some cement. (Hey, worked for Marine Electric!)
So do we stop and exchange insurance or just drive on?
Just like any accident, the horn got stuck.
Marco-i told ya im turning right....
Other Vessel- i gave ya signal by startin my vipers on saying No wait let me go first...
How to sideswipe an anchored ship.
That takes some "skill"!
Now, take (out) a bow.
Tanker dash cam! Yeaee!
2:28 - Marco........ Polo!!
Haha, a ship named after me :-) and also always on collision course :-DDD
Do you always give people the horn as well?
Why the blast of the horns?? will that prevent a collision??
Ahh, that’ll buff right out.
was texting.
xD
😂😂😂
This completely baffles me. I mean how can you miss or not miss a skyscraper laying on its side. These ships are giant. I just can't believe this happens. But it does. LOL.
So what disciplinary action results from a collision such as this?
when two ships love each other very much xD
Thanks
Genius pilot
With all the modern computer equipment controlling these ships you'd think a collision would be almost impossible. Having said that this seems like an incredibly busy shipping lane. Where is this?
"We were here first!"
"We're larger than you, and we're not stopping!"
Does that sum up the gist of it? :P
Smaller vessels are to yield to largers ones
@@masterenos r u kidding? She was on anchor
@@masterenos generally speaking as smaller vessels have a shorter stopping distances, but col-regs states that a vessel at anchor cannot manoeuvre.
@@masterenos thati complete nonsense. Under the IRPCS size has nothing to do with how the give way vessel is determined and what action it should take. Also, in this particular situation the vessel it was being filmed from was at anchor, so it was the vessel being filmed that was at fault.
'Horn battle that got out of control" !!
Some of the funniest comments I have ever seen on UA-cam!
What's Farsi for "Yeah, that'll buff right out?"
I have been waiting for a boarding party
One-half of all ships captains are proudly occupying the bottom of their graduating class, and there is that one (1) person in each and every class. -C
where happen this collision
A little kiss for Marco...
The Marco needs to buy one of those bow thrusters.
Marco saw the port light, both constrained by draught .....Marco gets the bill.
Marco was at anchor and would have seen the starboard light so she wins on both counts.
Uncle Albert was sailing that ship
Looks like people over there drive ships as bad as they drive cars
"All hands brace for collision". Haven't heard that for a while.
No looked out ?
2 Captains that should not be Captains!
In all fairness, these mega vessels cannot turn, or stop on a dime. However the smaller vessel should have given the larger the right of way.
The smaller vessel was at anchor - 3:07
mass and big big power
Big boy allways go first, on land and at sea!
Not when one is at anchor!
How can they not notice each other in time ? They are huge bright orange ships !
do you know the 2 vessel tonnage ?
Capt John Candy said "it'll buff out".
Wild
..
That could have been nasty if all those other ships couldnt stop either🤣🤣🤣
Wow they apparently give out credentials to anyone who buys a box of Captain Crunch. How is this even possible with both ships having watch keepers responsible for alerting the officers and bridge crew who are using state of the art radar etc to avoid this very kind of incident!
Is it really that hard for ships to miss each other in open water?
Классика мореплавателей, вот они достойные сыны великих штурманов.

what were those powerful engines doing ?
Those huge expanses of open water are so narrow!!
