Filmed during a heavy storm on the North Sea, between Norway and Scotland. The conditions were terrible, the views amazing! Waves of 20 mtr plus were recorded!
Fyi, the vessel is the Calamity Jane, an offshore support vessel. L.o.a. : 141 m or 463 ft.
I also respect and admire naval architects and other engineers that make these ships withstand such rough conditions.
Its been 10 years how are u doing
I spent almost ten years working on cargo vessels, good job and traveling a lot all over the world but no life, no birthdays, no Christmas with family. I survived two major accidents, a collision with another vessel and a fall on the deck hitting my back, unable to stand by I just rolled to a safety place with a lot of pain, almost one month later I started working normally again. Huge storms and huge waves, strong winds and solitude are part of a sailor job.
How are things going? Do you miss the sailor job? Do you now have a family?/
@@knowsmebyname sometimes l miss my sailor job, l don't wanna lie but right now l have a job in Dallas Texas with an insurance company and l feel good here. Yes, l have two kids, l got my divorce and now l am dating a Russian lady.
@@marcochavez11 hmmm this is just my opinion but dating a Russian lady is more dangerous than huge waves, huge storms, and strong winds, no? Hehe hope you are happy friend. That was a good post you started with.
@@knowsmebyname LOLOLOL 🤣

Truly awesome. Time passes, land appears and recedes, cultures and civilizations rise and change and fall- and the ocean is just like “that’s cute” and goes on doing its gorgeous terrifying primal thing.
Wonderfully stated description.
Now imagine it's 250 years ago and you're sailing in this in a small, wooden ship.
1. Those actually rode the swell better, and lacking mechanical propulsion would have sailed with the seas, not against, making the prespective totally different as well
It's a heck of a thought. It's also where my mind goes when I watch these. Running before the wind in mountainous seas in a creaking wooden ship powered only by sails. Terrifying.
Yes, and Grandma couldn't finish your pullover, because she was always drunk.
stfu
Respect to you guys, many a time I have stood safely onboard giant Oil Platforms and watched boats like yours in these conditions and thought its a gonner just to see you resurface in what seems like minutes later. The video does not fully capture how really wild it can be out there.
That's insane! Thanks for uploading this, it's definitely something I'd never see otherwise.....and even better- thanks for not adding annoying music!
Respect to the people who have to go through this everyday, I would shit myself if I was in this situation.
I was thinking that before I even read your comment!
me too and that's because I like sea and everything related
Lovely
Mind blowing to me that this has been around for 16yrs. I remember when youtube first came out
Yes, me too. I have a pre-beta gmail account and was early on youtube. I get people responding to things i wrote almost 20 years ago and it's really cool. But weird.
I'm glad people are still amazed by the same stuff they were 20 years ago. It means we haven't changed that much after all.
@@MatthijsKoningstein No, it means culture is changing much faster than biology. My brother was born in 1973 and I'm '80, so we are entirely different generations. He didn't have global communications at his fingertips as a child, but I did.
Bloody scary, wondering with every big wave whether the the ship will hold together.
I'm so glad to be watching this from the comfort of my own home!
It makes me appreciate how much guts it took to sail the oceans in wooden sailing ships.
This video of the stormy North Sea was uploaded before the Hoist the Colours craze was adopted to it.
Wow.
I like these moments in the ocean, may God protect all who travel in ocean.
The trenching support vessel Calamity Jane supports Solitaire, Audacia and Lorelay with activities such as pre and post route survey, crossing preparation and mattress installation, and operates as an independent unit with the mechanical trencher Digging Donald.
i remember watching this in 2011 when i was kid, time fly so fast
I still remember being on that ship in this weather...
Captain: I need a volunteer to get out there and clean the windows
Crew: (Crickets)
Captain: Tobey, here's your bucket!!
Question: The beep-thingy is a warning for high waves?
It’s for list angle I think
@@ΤΗΞΙηΣΑζΤΞΚδ Autopilot off course alarm
lol at the guys in the background... "Wow!! haha!"
pretty sure the boat is about to sink i would be scared
I appreciate there not being music just the sounds of the crew and mother nature.
The trick is to go at a speed which is either slow enough to allow the vessel to gracefully descend into the wave hollows or to go fast enough to let her go from peak to peak. Any speed in between those two will just make her dive into the wave hollows too late - and then to crash bluntly into the next oncoming wave because the bow can't rise quick enough (it's still on its way down and inertia takes its toll). Furthermore, it means to burn fuel for nothing.
Our love is like a ship on the ocean, it sails with a course of love and devotion🎶🎵🎵🎤🎶 rock the boat, dont rock the boat baby, rock the boat, dont tip the boat over
Look at all that water gathering up in the bow of the ship from the waves that keep hitting it omg!
I would be scared to death honestly
Ladies and gentlemen... The wirlpool on the front deck is now opened.
This is one of the few clips on youtube where the title is an understatement!!
On the ferry from Aberdeen to Shetland, I tried to sleep through a gale 9 storm.... without seat belts, lol. I didn't get any sleep though, was busy trying to stay in bed.
But you're absolutely right, when you don't fall out of bed, this is awesome!
Nope, it's the Calamity Jane. I should know, I was on board ;)
thyztwizta 7 yrs ago
When I see this I think of my Viking ancestors
I know, let's hope he read it as well ;)
this is nothing. oh i long back to the seas when i see this clip... this is freedom.. this is mother earth at her best...love it simply love it...
I still would love it out there! Scared crapless, loving it! Besides this would make up for the boring days!
that video before 10 years 😱
I wonder what the year 2029 is gonna be like
"We're all going to die-weather" imo
actually this here video is of me and my buddy Luther. We was out bass fishing on Lake Okeechobee in Florida when a hell of a blow done comed in off the coast. It blowed so hard that it dumped my can of vienna sausages onta the bottom of the boat. We had a fish well full of bass too. It shook up all our beer too, which was a real bummer. Good thing me and that Luther dont get sea sick, or we would been blowing chunks all over that Ranger.
I don’t know why this video is in my recommendation but I am not going to argue
0:33 a pool on the ship :D
Get the ludes!!
no
NO.... THAT'S AN ORDER AND A FACT!
What if one fell, but they had a life jacket, would they still die?
yes. the water temp would kill you before rescue
Chanel Valentine You need to be more spesific, if its without being rescued ofcourse but if he gets rescued after a minute he could survive
with the conditions of the ocean in the video? I highly doubt they would survive. the current and waves would make it extremely hard, if not impossible, to rescue them. I don't think a life jacket would mean that much.
Same thing happened to me but a WHOLE LOT worse, I was on a 28 ft grady-white coming from the bahamas headed towards florida and that day could be the worst day of my life, we were navigating through 21 ft waves from stern, starbord, port, from all directions and we made it, that grady saved my life..
Wow, so much water comes up onto the foredeck! Hope it all gets out before the next big one!
Holy shitters and critters and dithers and fritters.
Most likely would have a heart attack and die.
If one falls then the propellers may suck him into them and cut him into pieces.
No point in eating ...
there is a point, regurgitate it ready blended. no blender needed.
Jim shrook this is part of every sailor's life. We all kinda enjoy those things actualy...
No lie: the movie Perfect Storm would pop in my head...no lie: this would make me cry. o.0
What was bad about that? Seen bigger waves in my bath tub
No, it was built as a cable layer, but was converted to be an offshore support/trenching vessel. We use a digging donald to bury pipelines and ROV's to check the pipelines. It's a support vessel to the pipelaying vessels.
Wow...
Those are monster waves!
Thanks for posting the video.
Not sure if you're trolling, but just to be sure: yes, it is the trenching and support vessel Calamity Jane where this was filmed, I was an engineer on that ship. And basically, I was there, you weren't ;)
that is a A class video!!! when the bip starts it's quite scary!!
Welcome to the north sea in the winter! Ik kan niet wachten man! Weer heerlijk surfen! :D:D
17 years ago ? Dayyyuuummm why is this recommended 17 years later
love the way the guy in the background just makes lol of the weather...
You guys took that turbulance like champs (pardon my spelling)...it takes special stomaches and plenty of "no worries" type of folks to work or travel by sea. Thx for the upload.
That's indeed the same vessel. It was filmed from the port sided of the vessel,
Well filmed, my compliments to the helmsman.
That just terrifies me! *shivers*
I miss those rides in anchorage and also leaving sitka when worked for princess cruises....wahoooo !!
Somehow ended up in this section of youtube again! haha, started watching some clips of wildfires.. how i ended up here i'll never know. Usually end up on the lightening section of youtube! Guess it just goes to show, nature is unbeatable!!! epic stuff
that is the best rollercoaster youve ever been on :D:
SHUT THE FRONT DOOR - INCREDIBLE
Only once, way back in 1980, did I work on a ship with accomodation and bridge forward. This was a RoRo and we didn't meet much bad weather then. I guess it looks different from the stern accomodation kind of ships most of us work on. Thanks, anyways - and how was it for basic stuff like sleeping, eating and walking aft?
Very thrilling!! Did that on the ice breaker USCG Polar Sea on our trips through the Bering Sea and a few other areas.
I love how the guy just goes whoo when the giant wave hits
it looks so incredible. It must have been a great day
one person sounded like a sibling of me but when the first wave hit i said to myself that was epic!
No problem. We've had so many people mistake the bow for the stern and vice versa.
Ive been in 3 typoons in 1972 in the China Sea 3 weeks in the biggest seas Ive ever seen, The USS Midway has a aircraft elevator flattened against the hull. The Enterprise suffered a 70 foot crack from haus pipe then down the lenght of chain storage 10 feet below waterline. These waves come from different direction and at night you hear big ones coming. I watched 90 foot wave smack the flight deak 83 feet out of the water.
And a lot of them died in the process! Your right it does make a person appreciate what wind powered sailors accomplished.
Peace.
Don't forget there is always the ERRV (Emergency Response and Rescue Vessel) out in this weather too!
wow, that's out of control.....would definitely be freaking out.
I would easily get sea sick, great capture on that
I can imagine how horrible one's stomach would feel on those lurching drops down into the waves...so much nicer to watch from the stability of dry land..
I wonder how hard it is to navigate this sort of weather in the night? I suppose they have a lot of sophisticated equipment.
Is it my turn to go on that ride now!
That looks like fun, would probably get old after an hour or two though
Welcome to our beautiful Ocean Planet, enjoy the storms and calm.
It sure is beautiful!
Could watch this for hours
Part 2! People confuse a big swell with a storm. A storm is wind force. A swell often comes from 500 miles away 2 days ago and may be windless.
Few people have experienced F10+. The seas flatten as the wind just wipes out the wavetops. We get easier motion with a long swell but no visibility and no electronics. Just flying water and no rest as your body is racked endlessly by the sound of the screaming wind. It doesn't just hit your hearing but seems to penetrate your innermost core.
You can't mess with dear mother nature she is always in charge 😊
Water is the greatest key element on Earth. We are alive while it is.
Wow ! I would get seasick instantly ! Respect !
My pops worked on a seismograph ship...they were hit by 25 to 35ft waves.
It seems like two of those waves back to back would overwhelm the spillout scuppers. And that seems like it would be enough to tip the ship pretty far over. Anyone know for sure?
Ive been on a cruise in weather like this. Its freaking scary but its the most awesome experience
thats insane!!! must have been a fun ride
That looks so fun!
The Vikings did it in longboats, what 500 yrs ago ?
Looks so fun!
Hello from Eastern Germany!
In which sea is the ship in the video?
With us on the western Baltic Sea near the town of Wismar there are not such high waves. The waves are high with Bft 6 approx. 6 feet and with Bft 10 maybe 15-20 feet
Greeting
Mike
Nature is so awesome
is the length over all, 141m, in any relationship to the intervals of the waves? besides there was a story of a wave smashing a ship's window, so the man behind had good luck at 0:26
Das macht Freude. Alle sind grün im Gesicht. Dir steht die ganze Küche zur Verfügung.
Scary Weather! Pleased one i got on video was just a waterspout! though it was huge and did come close to our condo.
It brings back memories . . . .

I didn't see Jack & Rose at the front of the boat. And my heart will go OOOAAAANNN.
Love how all the persons on board seems like enjoying their stay. ;) Even though I'm a sailor (in a sailboat though) I would hate to be out in those watherconditions. lol
Don't look that bad, is it north sea? It does get much worse in some places, for sure but these guy, and their boat'll handle this all day, every day, rock'n' roll baby
Amazing!
