    Excellent video, as always! The footage of the big waves is incredible. I am thrilled and overwhelmed at the size of those waves.
    Just another day at the office for the crew......I would be slightly freaked out but reassured knowing you guys are total professionals at what you do. The only way I would get on a boat knowing waves like that exist, would be with the crew of your ship. Safe travels!

      These seas can last for weeks at a time so sleep comes naturally after a couple of days. We have blanks that we can fit down the side of the bunks to stop us from rolling out.

      They go in the good weather. It is not just the vessel that need to be rugged but the passengers also.
      If you take a look at one of the videos that show you around the inside of our ship you will see that it is minimalistic. Everything is secured or bolted down. These even goes for cups and mugs and that is just in the good weather. Now take a look inside one of these luxury yachts. Nothing about the interior or exterior of these says they are equipped for being hit by 20+ meter waves.
      It takes a lot of experience even to sit down or sleep in these conditions not to mention eat, shower, walk or shit and all the other activities. Objects would be flying through the air. Passengers would be begging to go home or be taken off.

    My Mother was just putting down the phone .
    That was Mikes Mother she said .
    Her 2 sons did. Not come home from fishing tonight , they should have been home 2 hr ago .
    I called everywhere , no one has seen them .Have You seen them ? She asned .
    Call me when You find out what happened .
    So everyone stayed close to the phone ALL NIGHT .
    At about 8 am a phone call came in , my Mother answerd the phone .
    They found them she said
    They washed up on shore this morning .
    Thier engine stalled , the weather got really bad , they thought they were going to die , so they went to the Cud and prepared for it , but it didnt happen .so they fell asleep and waited to die in thier sleep.
    When they wokeup they had washed ashore .
    Next time I saw him , he said he was selling the boat and never going out there again .
    AND THAT IS WHAT HE DID .
    Got any stories like this ?
    I think You do .
    No one went to sleep that night .
    That is how a VIGIL works .
    They just waited , expecting to get a call they were dead .
    Every one shighed a big relief. .

    Just a spot of constructive criticism. At the start of the film we need a shot of the ship we are on! Are we on a tug? An oil tanker? A fishing boat? Excellent film of the wave action, the imagination of the viewer just needs to know what we are in. Also If there is anyone on board under the age of 70 and capable of speaking English you might have him narrate some details. E.g. are we looking thru windows at the stern in a following sea? It could be the bow but there is no spray being thrown up. We can't see the bow and we can't imagine it because we haven't seen a picture of the vessel we are on. Also If you are going to force us to listen to screaming hydraulic motors at least tell us what they are. Details brother, details.

    What qualifies this as “the largest waves on the Planet”? Those waves can’t possibly the largest. The largest recorded wave was over 1700 ft. There are waves that are surfed in the 70ft range. A category 10 swell is 50ft plus. Those are rare but reported. Maybe I have the perspective wrong and I’m not seeing the true size of the waves.

    • @Bigwavemaster1

      Largest wave on the planet at time of filming. It’s in the title.
      1700 ft? 😂😂😂😂😊
