Storm in the Drake Passage
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2017
- This video was taken on board a Russian vessel crossing the Drake Passage between Ushuaia (Argentina) and the Antarctic Peninsula. The Drake Passage is known as the roughest sea on earth with severe storms almost at any times and extremely huge waves. We were hit by a storm sailing north that lasted two days with 14m waves.
Dieses Video wurde an Bord eines russischen Schiffes aufgenommen auf einer Fahrt durch die Drake Passage zwischen Ushuaia (Argentinien) und der Antarktischen Halbinsel. Die Drake Passage ist bekannt als das stürmischste See auf der Welt mit starken Stürmen fast zu jeder Zeit und extrem riesigen Wellen. Bei Nordkurs wurden wir von einem Sturm getroffen, der uns über zwei Tage mit Bft 10 bis zu 14m Wellen begleitete.

Imaging the balls of ancient sailors going there in old wooden ships, no technology no modern clothes and even no certitude what was ahead.. hard to imagine
Read the book ENDURANCE: Shackleton's Incredible Voyage by Alfred Lansing
Those waves look massive and we all know, video makes them look lot smaller than they actually are.
It looks beautiful yet terrifying. I always stay mesmerized when watching videos like this.
Me, too!
I'm sitting on a couch and and I'm getting seasick
God Bless you!!!
This is terrifying and beautiful at the same time 😃🤢
Same here
Been there, done that. Never again. Thirty of the most miserable hours I've ever spent.
Greg Belcamino it’s that bad?
That bad. Thirty hours through thirty-foot seas in a pretty big cruise ship. No problem sailing from Ushuaia to the Antarctic Peninsula, but the we had to return . . .
Looks fun to me but I think it’s just me
God Bless you!!!
Was antarctica worth it?
I like the safety and comfort of Land.
The wave (or monster swell) at 5:00 is taller than the ship is high! Truly jaw-dropping.
Unreal that Shackleton made it across this in a lifeboat. What an amazing story.
Wow!! This brings back memories of my trip to Antarctica!!
Wow. Thank you for sharing this fantastic video. Loved the focus on the ocean and capturing the sounds. I could have watched 8 hours of it!
Such a great captain and crew in what looked like terrifying conditions.
Ernest Shackleton and Frank Worsley laugh at these high seas.
I don't think they were laughing at that one wave that hit them which Shackleton describes as the largest wave he had ever seen. How can't imagine surviving what they went through.
Nearly finished Endurance and about 25 pages from the end - it's that book which brought me here to get a look!
@@AlanGregorySEO Reading it now. I don’t see how they didn’t become hypothermic and freeze to death with them being constantly drenched.
They weren't laughing they were terrified and rightfully so . That is what makes them amazing is despite their fear they faced it and did it anyway
I know yeah! Crazy what they went through - did a tough mudder the other day and had to jump in an ice bath - 20 seconds felt like 20 minutes - they practically lived in it!
The book is brilliant isn't it!
I like how I got an ad for carnival cruises before watching this
Wonderful video! I felt like i was on that ship in the Drake passage with ya! I cant wrap my mind around those waves wow!! Thank you so much for sharing! I have never seen anything like that storm while on a ship!!
Thanks, Lannie.
Lannie Wise that's spectacular
Awesome video and love the sound of the wind in the rigging.
Store your booze in plastic containers!!!
I think the wind is just an audio effect on top of it.
I have navigated the DP a few times, it's usually quiet on the bridge despite hearing the waves slamming against the hull and and a few gusts hear and that.
The consistent wind is either picked up by an external camera (which I doubt) or just a sound effect put over the video.
Just think, how many did this in wooden ships. It's amazing what we humans can do.
Just imagine falling into these waters. I mean how long would one survive? Fucking horrifying.
If you were to drop from a ship into the water, you would almost certainly die by drowning even if you were a world class swimmer. The reason for that is a chain of events triggered as a result of sudden exposure to extreme cold. After hitting the water you wouldn't stop at the water level. You would continue to sink for some time because you fell from a height, but the frigid water would trigger hypothermic shock in your body which would cause you to "gasp"..rapidly suck in air similar to how you would if you suddenly stepped into an ice cold shower in the winter. The difference is in this case when your gasp reflex is triggered , you are at least 15 - 20 ft under water. You will be sucking in _water_ , not air, - ice cold sea water. Your lungs would quickly fill and you would sink to the bottom of the ocean. In fact this is the fate of most passengers who fall off cruise ships. They drown and their bodies are never found. And the water does not need to be frigid - sea water at temps below 65F will trigger the reflex in most people.
@@TrollMeister_ If that's true, that's interesting.
@@TrollMeister_ thank you for typing all this out this was very informative
@@TrollMeister_ that is horrifying. Thanks for the info
Wow - those waves!
Thanks
4:55 scared the sh*t out of me.
???
Omg same!
Yess it look like a huge wave
Yes! My heart stopped for a few seconds!
the fucking music
so beautiful yet so terrifying at the same time ❤️
Incredible. Great editing!
love the sounds of the creaking ship noises and winds..very haunting...
Bellisimo. Estoy soñando con un día hacer ese viaje. Es espectacular.
think ships has to cross this befopre panama canal was built.... hats off to those sailors
they used to use the channel nearby, but not for large ships. the panama canal made things considerably easier.
Those waves are sooooo huge!!!!!
Hay que ser muy valiente para navegar en el drake...mi admiración a todos estos navegantes valientes y a los marinos!!! Son unos capos!!!
Fantástico!!!
Amazing i love the music aswell
So beautiful omg
Wow great video. I plan to go to Antarctica in the next few years, not looking forward to crossing the Drake Passage. For a ship of the size you were in, are conditions like these ever a danger? Or is it just a case of 2 days of very uncomfortable conditions?
Thanks for your comment. This was a relatively small ship and the storm was unusually violent. But there was no real danger. It was just very unpleasant, no sleep, no food and almost all people were seasick
@@xeniacolours
Frightening yet simultaneously beautiful!
(The sound of the howling winds, too!)
5:02
Jesus. I thought the Bering Sea was tough (Deadliest Catch). This is a whole different game.
Wow that’s bravery right there 🙌⭐️
Incredible beautiful scary breathtaking all in one
Hatts off to you guys 🔥
Great video
Those swells are massive
How can you drive a boat through this and not almost piss yourself
*ship.
You wear the yellow pants
Always that jackass that wants to correct everything. Boat/ship, who gives a fuk, we know what they are talking about 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
E esse barulho do vento! Valha-me Deus, cê é louco!
Que terrorífico y maravilloso a la vez.Soy chilena🇨🇱 y¡¡ quiero ir!! .¿Quién sabe cómo lo puedo hacer?
Proper waves.
Amazing,!! Can’t imagine being in that journey,,,,,!!!! 😩🫣
So the drake passage is two days, but is it two nights as well or do ships typically arrive on the 2nd night? Thanks!
pretty sure it takes the whole 48 hours could be wrong
This is just a normal day in the Drake, nothing new!!
I am from India 🇮🇳. I read in Atlas (map)drake paas so i just search about drake pass. Natural amazing😊😊😊😊
started getting seasick at 6 minutes in........
Gostei do vídeo.
Increíble
What does the instrument measure?
Hi Bernd! Ist es möglich dich bzgl. des Videos zu kontaktieren? Ich würde das Video gerne in einer Produktion verwenden, sofern das grundsätzlich möglich ist. Beste Grüße!
Hello, kannst mich gern kontaktieren: info@bild-art.de
Was this on the Vavilov by chance?
This was the Prof Multanovsky
Get a prescription for Scopolamine Transdermal Patch. Put it behind your ear and chances are you’ll be fine. I was despite a storm on the way back to Ushuaia.
Looks like Chuck Norris` kiddie pool
😂😂😂😂😂
the ship is huanted, curtains close by itself!!!
Gee, you think? Really?
applesinthebackyard shut the fuck up
Can we expect rough weather in January ? If all goes well I am crossing it next month
You can expect stormy weather in the Drake at any time. These furiuos 50s winds have no land mass to slow them down. However it depends on the fast moving wheather systems, I had very calm crossings as well as really dangerous storms, so be prepared.
Alcohol helps when trying to get up the drake passage
What if you run out of fuel here?
Read about this in staar
Who relates
DubCoree me lol
ME
thought i was the only one who cared.
i really liked that story though, im saving it when it gets released to the public
DubCoree yup
This is late but me lol
Anyone knows on why this happens? Is it just the weather or?
The Drake Passage is considered one of the most treacherous voyages for ships to make. Currents at its latitude meet no resistance from any landmass, and waves top 40 feet, hence its reputation as "the most powerful convergence of seas".
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drake_Passage
What a wonderful place to be at......
So dangerous.. Yet so desirable 🤪❤️
That's gotta be a 50 foot swell at least right ?
Mar em Fúria!
I’m surprised that ship is using the same old paper charts and fuzzy weather faxes that I had on my sailboat in the early 2000s….back when gps was black and white only and pricey. I figured ships would have much more updated navigational aids and electronics.🤔
COLOQUE EM PORTUGUÊS?
Que maluquice! Não passaria neste lugar mas nem se fosse para ganhar milhões. kkk.
This sea has no chill!
It only sends a chill down your spine.
This wouldn't be the first time Germans came to Antarctica..... if you know what I mean....
Touchy issues ooooohhhhhhhh shut up
@Oliver Rhodes
Joe Biden senile
que susto!!!
AZOTAME, DRAKE!!

Yaaaarrghhh!
E muito perigoso mesmo.
Hide the martini glasses . . .

That's to scary
Is anyone here bc of the reading STAAR test ahahah?
Grecia Rivera omg i am..i was so interested into that dang story😭
Grecia Rivera me
Drake was not the first to get there. Hoces did it before.
THIS VIDEO NEEDS EDIT. . . different from its title. . .
Legal
I am getting sea sick from watching this
Where all the lvl 70 Pokémon at, huh?
Monster
5:58 Hey guys !!! C'mon !!! Come here and help me to clean this s*** !!! During the last waves something is gone wrong here in the kitchen !!!
I get bigger waves in my bath
The fatter the arse, the bigger the waves!
Jesus loves each and every one of you very much!!!!
As he loves you dear brother
Jesus died nearly 2000 years ago.
4:56 i almost shit my pants
Big ass waves and big ass dollars ...
Это гипноз! Завораживающее зрелище.
Epaminonda
파도랑 바람 미쳤다... 20m/s라니...
Southern Ocean-Drake Passage.......uhhhh, yeah.......no thanks.
It's peculiar that all the great travellers in the world have been Europeans. I can't get it. What did the people from the other parts do? But really need to admit, all these people are gutsy. I'm lying on my bed while seeing this video and yet feeling seasick.
I think Polynesians were greater navigators and explorers if we take their context into account.
You can read the book "Guns, Germs, and Steel" and get one answer to this question.
So much pitching
I want swimm here
*long inaudible laugh*
Nope!!!
Ehh..my Jon boat and motor guide trolling motor can handle that
G-d forbid you lost power
I want vomit when see this
Nope.
