Despite all modern technology, every so often, the ocean likes to remind everyone who is in charge.
This! Everyone wants to complain about ships not being built to withstand strong storms, and cities not having good enough infrastructure to withstand these storms to but it wouldn’t make a difference if we did or didn’t…..Mother Nature doesn’t care at all for how much money, and materials we put into storm safety because she will still be more powerful than all of us.
I always say "never fuck with the sea. It's cold, dark and heavy. And it will drag you with them"
Atlantis was an so advanced civilization. An the sea destroy an engulf her. Titanic and bismarck and yamato was so massibe and powefull ships, but his power was nothing against the ocean.

Never underestimate the ocean is a true heed because you will perish
To think hundreds of years ago our ancestors crossed oceans on wood fairing ships , with cloth sails. They had guts , and immense courage.
Right. Can you imagine how many people were lost at sea?
A think also the folk that risk their lives on massive million tonnes ships in bad weather that's courage
Natural selection is a beast. As an American that’s definitely apart of my ancestoral pride. Surviving the sea ride over.
Yes yes and to think that their ofspring today does not know are they men or a women I belive they swindel in grave ....
Yes I think about this too imagine back then no flushing toilets ? Months it took to get to another country. Many got very sick and then there was a class system poorest people down the bottom ? In rough weather it would have been awful.
I have great respect for the captains and sailers of the old sailships who explored the world ; they were really brave.
Absolutely
4 sure. It must have been very difficult on those slave ships packed with prisoners on their way to America.

Absolute perfect reply!
No annoying music 👌. How about those repetitive submarine bloops some use?
The MTS Oceanos story is another good one. In 1991 the captain and crew abandoned the ship and its passengers during a bad storm! Only due to the ships onboard entertainers, who radioed the coast guard for help, did everyone get airlifted to safety. The one man who figured out how to use the radio and saved everyone because of it, was Moss Hills a true legend!
From what I recall about that story too is the captain was arrested!
Wow that's crazy
Moss & Tracy performed at the Crazy Monkey Bar at Sun City (South African Casino complex) in 1992/1993 and they sang a song about the Oceanos experience. They were great entertainers😀
Yes , the captain and crew took the lifeboats , leaving the passengers to drown.

I'm a retired Helicopter Aircrewman and Rescue Swimmer with the U.S. Navy. In 1985 returning from a 7 month Med deployment, we hit the tail end of a hurricane. We were detached to the au.S.S. Kids DDG 993, the sea was so rough we were consistently being pounded by waves and at times we were listing up 40°. We were part of the U.S.S. Eisenhower CVN-69. The Ike was on n our starboard side about 4-5 miles away and she was playing submarine. You know it's rough when an nuclear aircraft carrier was being hit with seas so high, the flight deck was being submergered.
Oh my goodness, that must have been so scary and unimaginable.
I'm sure the crew was praying and hoping the naval architects got it right, and all hatches have been buttoned down and water tight. Thank you for your service and sacrifice. US Army 1983-1986.

@@herpderp3131yes it is
In case of an emergency the situation is completely out of control!!!! Thousands of unprepaired passengers, hundreds of half-trained crew, tens of nationalities…. Often power will break down, the ship will list, moving about will be hard, communication will become impossible…. At a listing ship half of the lifeboats can not be deployed…. If you don’t believe me look up the demise of the ‘Costa Concordia’!!…. And that happened in perfect weather with no wind or waves worth mentioning…. The simple fact she miraculously stranded on a smal shelve on an islands’ shore doubtlessly saved THOUSANDS of lives!! You will NEVER see me boarding a cruiseship…..
The second clip, the 2019 Viking Cruise off the coast of Norway, perfect example of why all furnishings on a ship should be secured in place while underway. There are systems to lock the furniture down and release it for moving to a different position.
I’ve actually never seen a ship with loose furniture except the smaller chairs!!! And they don’t use glass except for plates which at kept in secure cabinets, no wine bottles or drinks bottles should be loose!!!
Those beeps mean the passengers should go to their muster station? Though probably couldn't as they'd be injured. 😮
@@Phushprada1 The securing of furnishings would be normal in ferries for example that only sail a direct route which can't be changed. This is a cruise ship which can change course to avoid storms, this weather would not have been a problem for any cruise ship except for the loss of engines which exacerbates weather conditions. I was a senior officer on four different cruise lines and have been through dozens of storms and none had the effect shown in this clip simply because the engines were running and the stabilisers were working. Your comment also shows you have no understanding of cruise ships and how well they weather storms. Plates, glasses and bottles are not kept in secure cabinets as there is no need.
Hi my friend 😘
The only thing that was bolted down was the piano. It is actually kinda cool to see all the other furniture moving underneath it for all that the engines being out made it more of an emergency than it should have been.
That ferry with the broken window a is terrifying
A ferry is terrifying
It looks like a movie. Kinda like the Titanic! 🤣
@@michealmaccartain7320my sister's only fans is weird to watch for me.
Those Hamburg harbour ferries are actually built to withstand even worse weather. The window breaking was caused by material fatigue, all ferries were checked again, it was just bad luck it hit that one out of all the ferries going that morning. Nothing worse than a few scratches for the guy who had been sitting right in front of the broken window, and for everyone a scare and wet feet. At least, this time going to work actually wasn't as boring as usual!
Agreed!
The ocean terrifies me. Never underestimate it.
There's a LOT more water than land! When the icecaps melt, we're all going to get very familiar with that!
Is the love boat your favorite show?
But dont overestimate it either.
I want to applaud the engineers who designed ships that can stay afloat without breaking apart or capsizing under such conditions!
Every sixty seconds you spend angry, upset or mad, is a full minute of happiness you will never get back.
Mad and anger are same If u can’t control it it’s not your fault, regardless of which emotion
I once traveled from L.A. to Catalina Island with family aboard a small ship. Halfway there, the waves intensified to the point that it was near impossible to walk around. The only thing we could do was stay in one place and hold on. On the way back, I went up to the highest deck, grabbed the rail, and held on tightly while looking over the side. The ship rocked so hard that I could see either all ship or all ocean.
You were in the ocean? I'm confused.
Yah they were in the ocean on a boat
Bollocks.
It gets really rough La to Catalina especially in the afternoon
I'm very thankful yous lived to tell the story. I just couldn't imagine the fear in some people. Uggg no thankyou! ❤
On a Navy ship I was officer of the deck on, crossing the North Atlantic in December we were taking green water over the bridge, 80 ft above the water. I have a great appreciation for the power of the sea
When I told my navy veteran grandfather about my experience on a winter cruise between Finland and Sweden, he guffawed. I said that it was only a few hours of open seas but he said what a few hours it was! And it indeed was, though most of the time that's an uneventful cruise. He was a WW2 veteran, and they patrolled the Scapa Flow.
Those poor people.The seas are not always friendly. As much as I love the ocean. I wouldn't want to go through that. Big respect for those who work out on the Ocean. GOD Bless.
Take a cruise they said, It’ll be fun they said!
As long as you stay in the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean, or around the Bahamas, you won’t really see these rough seas. It’s when crossing the Atlantic or Pacific or the North Sea you have rough seas.
I swear TUGBOATS are such under appreciated vessels of the seas. They come to big expensive ships and peoples rescue all the time.
Who else is watching after booking their cruise? 😂
I have a fear of like water and like my dad booked I ship and like ...... and I think that I am gonna turn into the titanic sooooooo😅 I'M SCARED LIKE HAVE U SEEN THE TITANIC AND IT'S GONNA BE REALLY REALLY REALLY COLD WHEN WE GOOO 🥴😵💫😵💫

"...the worst cruise ship disaster of all time?" No mention then of the Costa Concordia on which 32 died, after which the ship was scrapped.

This is why I do not go on cruise ships, or boats for that matter. I love the ocean, but I rather be safe on dry land. 😅😊
As fun as riding boats and ships would be, I understand why some people don't like to. It's not for everyone, I get it.
Critical point....someone should tell the ship builders and furnishing crews that all furniture is supposed to be SECURED !!
Securing the furniture does not always work,I was on a liner going through the Australian Bight in 1956 when the sea got very rough,and the furniture broke loose and began sliding backwards and forwards,the crew had to wedge it in a line across the room.

It's strange that ships don't bolt the furniture down just in case something happens. Seems like it would be a good idea.
Yes, well, i could imagine having holes all over the floor could be problematic for architecture
@@Kiiauplol, it wouldn't do anything
Exactly. 400 million ship and nobody thinks "hey the furniture could slide with waves lets attach it.. ?"
@@TomDutch Well what good would it do when you need to move the furniture? Bolting the furniture down is more trouble than it's worth. It would also add a lot of unneeded weight.
I just want to know who all the idiots are that try to get up and walk around as all the furniture is sliding from one side of the room to the other. As pieces of the ceiling all falling on their heads. Dumb...like where the hell do you think your gonna go? Stay your butt in a seat and don't get up to take an evening stroll. Ride the dang furniture around if you must.

On a Hurtigruten journey around the Norwegian coast, we experienced 15metre waves. It was utterly terrifying and we thought we would die. However, we survived and were given a certified photo of the ship with the height of the waves as a commemorative reminder. Haven't been on a ship since.
Wow
this comment wins 😂
Which Hurtigrutenship was that and what year? Have been on them often in every season, including extreme circumstances (also still on the small old ones). Sometimes you are better off on the smaller ones!! See the Maud (ex Midnatsol) that recently had a few bridgewindows smashed.
First time l was on the, then, Midnatsol. No problems. Second time the Nordkapp in November 2013. Have certificates for 2 different days detailing wave height, etc. . Would have loved to have gone again, but 15 metre waves terrified me. @@koosriedijk3872

That captain with the wipers on LOL!
There was a bad storm once when we on a Viking Line (Finland, not Viking Cruises) ship between Helsinki and Stockholm. It was in December, so there was also ice in the water, and the crew told us in the morning that the captain stayed up all night for that one. They stayed in visual contact all night with a Siljaline ship as well, you could see it from the windows. It was definitely rocking and rolling, and then that sick feeling when you hear the ice grate against the hull.
The natural disaster is truly too great!
Tyvvvm for clarification of which line.
That’s it, I will never go on a cruise!
Me either. Even if it's free. In a few weeks a friend is going to Mexico on a cruise as it was postponed during covid. What??? Besides its winter and the cartels are in control who is to say they won't storm the ship and kidnap the thing. There 8s no police on those ships. Its terrifying. Even if they don't go ashore its still scary. No thanks.
As long as you stay in the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean, or around the Bahamas, you won’t really see these rough seas. It’s when crossing the Atlantic or Pacific or the North Sea you have rough seas.

@@sylviaslydavis405How'd it go? Lol
I always say if u can look at the ocean and not feel small.....u think too much of yourself. The ocean humbles all of us
The first time I saw the ocean was 29yrs....I was literally dumbfounded. Even now no matter how many times I see it still takes my breath away
This, my friends, is why I'd never go on a cruise ship.
Thanks goodness the piano stayed put .
11:00 Hidious looking ship. It looks like a floating block of flats.
Lol
A total freakish looking vessel...I see the same thing. Blocks of apartments at Avenue Rd and Yonge St..Toronto..
I mean in a way, it basically is
The big problem on Viking Sky was that the oil level for all the engines was at the minimum mark, apparently that was quite normal at the time of the incident in the company. That did not go well when the ship encountered rough weather, making all engines (4 of them, if I remember correctly) fail.
Yes we lost all 4. It was later determined that, as a result of drifting, we were a ship's length away from likely hitting the rocky coastline. VERY fortunately, they got an anchor to hold. We could not launch the boats due to the bad conditions. My wife and I were among the 400+ who were evacuated by helicopter.
I love how on the first video the cameraman was safe and even developed flying powers.
That second clip gets me every time. The people sitting there define the word stupid. There's literally a one thousand pound piano waiting to break free from the floor and crush everyone in it's path. A lady literally gets hit in the head with a ceiling panel and doesn't move an inch while it's swinging around waiting to hit her again. There's a glass table dancing around the room just begging to remove somebodies legs in a cinematic fashion. The guy filming even says "get that on video", like it's going to be used as evidence of how the cruise liner can control the weather and make people not be absurdly clueless. People, is the worse person to be around when common sense and self preservation will save your life.
Luckily the camera man always survives !
If it is not the cameraman that survives, it sure will be John Wayne who single handed keeps the boat afloat , while flying the helicopter and saves 120 folks each time to the nearest shore which is 800 miles away and does it 12 times on the same tank full of fuel. Then goes back and brings the sunken ship back to Port suffering only a broken arm . what a GUY.
My late father was a WWII veteran, and when returning home from Europe on a Liberty ship, the vessel encountered a fierce winter storm on the North Atlantic. Many is the time that I listened with fascination to his account of the ship being tossed in this terrible storm, causing the passengers to wonder if they had survived the war only to drown on the way home. Thankfully, they made it back home- but watching videos such as this causes me to have at least some idea of how frightening that experience must have been for my dad and the other people. Thanks for this presentation; it was interesting.
Not the lady getting hit with the ceiling tiles 🤣😭
Timestamp??..
The best part of this was all the cruise line commercials during this video.
"....Not the PIANO ----- PLEASE!" Imagine a Grand Piano Slamming into you
Closest I’ve come to this is returning to NYC from Bermuda and sailing through the tail end of a hurricane. Actually, it was kind of fun but there were a lot of passengers in the mid-ship lounges puking their guts out. We lost a couple of windows in the fancy dining room in the stern. I have a great picture of my wife with her hair standing on end out on the deck.
Haha! Holy crap, was this on a Royal Caribbean ship? I worked on ships from 98-2000 and did the NY to Bermuda cruise in fall. We had no choice but to go right thru the eye of a hurricane and you're exactly right! Standing in the atrium you'd look on either side out the window to see the water rise waaay up then slowly (and nauseatingly!) switch sides. So many people hurling including die hard staffers! Good times!
@@lancemannion4113Went back to check… Royal Caribbean August 1-7, 2004. Empress of the Seas. Looking back through the pictures brought a smile to my face and also reminded me.. bring fans if you have an indoor cabin.
They survived, didn’t they? If you’ve never seen this before, it is pretty scary. Most ships will survive, but if there is loss of control due to engine or electrical failure things can get lifethreatening very fast.
So what's your point?.. You're saying " They survived didnt they?" Like you're arguing with someone...?

Love watching these. I’m on Ovation of the Seas right now bound for Sydney and the Pacific is so smooth it’s easy to forget you’re on a ship!
The ad for carnival cruise lines is below the video😂😂
Anthem of the seas clip is normal, the cabin is on the lowest deck of the passenger cabins way below the lifeboat deck as can be seen on the image of it, the square windows are passenger cabins and are roughly 15 to 20 feet above the waterline so waves hitting them happens all the time.
Wow when that one ship's window blew that must have been a hell of a blow to the window. The power of water is kind of terrifying when you think about it.
Ah, the Irish crossings will put hair on your chests. As a kid in the 80s we got stuck just 10 miles from Dublin overnight on a very old ferry. Everyone was crying, with no possible rescue as the storm was too bad. Corridors in life jackets and sick bags. There were priests heading up groups of women cracking out novenas. The new fleet brought in through the 90s were game changers. No one even left the bars, regular travellers were like battle hardened sailors. Us Teens like 'this is nothing, we've seen sh!t'.
Literally got an ad for a cruise in the middle of this video- no thank you, I'm good lol
Earlier this year in June I was aboard the carnival Mardi Gras, one of the largest ships in the carnival line. We were going through the Caribbean, and remember the seas being super rough during the entirety of this 10 day trip. My butt was clenching so hard, I’m pretty sure it got muscle built lol… if I was on such a large ship and IT was getting rocked around, I can’t imagine being on anything smaller without actually crapping myself. Anyway, I’m going on another cruise this upcoming summer along Mexico!
was just on the carnival celebration, their biggest ship we were ROCKING the whole time, im not new to cruises and it was some of the worst i’ve ever experienced, and the waves were definitely not the worst i’ve seen, i learned when ships are slower they rock more, but that’s mostly all it is so hopefully that’s some piece of mind!
WoW some of your story's are both fascinating and scary at the same time. Enjoy your trip to Beautiful Mexico 🇲🇽 and stay safe ❤
The Norwegian Pearl was no better I do remember that the ship was trying to outrun a storm
Was on Royal Caribbean's Fantasy in the Gulf of Mexico in 2008. The cold front that caused snow in New Orleans moved into the Gulf and hit us on the way to Cancun with 30 foot waves. Half of the passengers were sea sick and didn't show up for several meals. The swimming pool lost a lot of its water. Took me two days once we got back to lose my "sea legs".
Royal Caribbean does not have a ship called Fantasy, also, in any storm as you describe all pools are immediately drained to lower the centre of gravity of the ship.

why is furniture not attached?
Yeh you'd of thought being at sea it'd be fixed to the floor to stop casualties
Yeah, good question
just goes to show that no matter how big the ship, the ocean is bigger. i still love cruising. :)
Not being a fan of seasickness, my only cruise was back in 1982. A few times since then, I’ve been asked to give cruises another chance. My answer was usually “no” or “hell no.” I have plenty of reasons to stay on land, but if I ever needed another, this video will take care of it nicely.
I feel the same also of airplanes and turbulence
I get seasick easily and if I were on any of these cruises I'd be in a fetal position in my bed after throwing up everything. BUT..., I've been on five or six cruises recently, usually on big ships and have had no issues.
Where did you cruise to back then?
Where was your first cruise?
@@txmade210 I remember it was 14 days, but I was done after 10. We went through the Panama Canal and stopped at a few islands. It was 42 years ago, so I don’t remember much of it.

She was trying to get paid lol probably cited emotional distress and did lol
The main reason why people are sent to their cabins in modern ships is that the ships can stay afloat but just like the second clip, staff are more concerned about furniture rolling around and hit you. In your cabin there is very little furniture that can hit you.

It looks like 2016 was a curse year for the cruise industry weather wise 😭
The Viking Cruise problems outside the coast of Norway was the result of the captain’s/ crew’s very poor judgement. While all the Norwegian coastal liners stayed in harbour when the storm warning came (it wasn’t sudden) to wait out the worst weather, the Viking Cruise ship chose to go out to sea. And what do you know - after a while in the storm, they got engine problems, leaving them more or less dead in the water, or rather the horrendous waves, thus illustrating why the captain should have stayed in harbour instead of “assuming” and gambling with the lives of the passengers.
On the 1st and 2nd video what a treat,a Luxury Cruise with extreme Theme Park Attractions. Priceless.
I must have been in the titanic in a earlier life. This gives me such anxiety, and I have no desire to ever go on a cruise boat.❤
Yes I bet you think your so special
Loved the video. Wished we were there also. Today, a cool change at 32c here in Perth....Western Australia, that is.
Can you imagine what it's like to play the Steinway grand piano while it's moving around on deck?
Look forward to spring as a time when you can start to see what nature has to offer once again.
I've been on a ferry from France to Ireland in a similar storm like no. 1. and weirdly enough I never get seasick. You could not see anyone at the ferry anymore and the area near the toilets reeked of puke. The sound coming from the cargo decks was really unnerving but other than that we felt safe and nothing major happend to people and no stuff flew around. But I am guessing that they had some damaged cars in the lower decks.
That ocean don't fuck around🌊⛴️
Captains gotta be insane to do that job haha amazing!
When I was in the Army, I lost my rifle and was charged $83. That's why in the Navy, the Captian goes down with the ship.
In the 80's when i was a child we were on a ferry coming back to uk from the hook of holland and encountered a terrible storm. The north sea is definitely no joke.
These videos just keep telling me over and over that I will NEVER sail on a cruise ship to anywhere, it even a small ship, a boat, a canoe, or even a kayak! Water terrifies me so much I do,not even go into a swimming pool! But I will take a tub bath😄😄
I have eaten soup in that weather. I have also been thinking why no one has recorded the stuff I saw in the North Atlantic sea. It's because of the sheer fear of your life. You don't think "Ow let me take a selfie with a 100 foot wave".
gee, thanks, I got sea sick just watching this!😄
The power of the ocean is something you have to see to truly understand and believe. Just watching a video of it is not enough. Until you are on the deck of a ship and looking up to a wall of water as tall as high rise office building, you just don't get it. It is *awesome* in the most literal definition of that word.
This is why cruise lines require everybody to participate in their muster drills!
Everyone who boards a ship must know where their lifeboat station is. You can think 111 years of safety regs following the Titanic sinking for that. Speaking of which, if there was a more orderly evacuation of the Titanic, more lives would've been saved.
In cruise ships why dont they make the furniture embedded in the flooring of the ships?
For my wife and I first cruise we ended up sailing through a just reduced hurricane to a tropical storm. Winds were close to 70 mph and the ship was older than I was! It was so old it was riveted together not welded! That was a very nervous Cruise for the both of us!!
for the first time in years I woke up with a fever and really sick. Seeing this makes me feel a lot better. I can't imagine swaying like that for an hour.
I remember being on a ferry & half the trip we were under water with waves being so high. I got soooo sea sick
In that first clip.. astonishing the helicopter was out in that weather!
Shouldn't furniture and other stuff on ships be bolted down to the floor? That's a major hazard if they aren't.
And a failure of all primary and backup engines?
@@xcalibertrekker6693 Of course that's terrible too, and inexcusable in the 21st century, but a mechanical or electrical failure can't be predicted. However, waves move ships, that's a fact of nature, and as such, furniture and other things should be properly secured to avoid situations where a loose table can hurt someone.
I was on the very first Viking ocean cruise ship. Talk about elegance.. But this captain in this video I can’t believe this company actually hired someone like this
The one thing I noticed was when he spoke of world class dining and showed a burger and chips 😅
And you all thought Carnival was the first cruise line who had a rollercaster.
OMG. I was caught up in a Gale force 9 back from Denmark to the UK, February on the north sea, not good! I have never been so scared and 🤮🤮 in all my days, that was the end of my sea legs adventures! 🌊🌊🌊
5:22 I love Grandpa here-"it's time to abdicate the area."
hahaha ... thefirst asvertizement whilewatching this was for a cruise
😂 was hoping piano 🎹 would go out window 🪟
and end up in Mermaid land? :P
I just don't get Cruise ships "Pay a fortune to do loads of things I can do cheaper on land plus pollute the planet even more!"
For real! Great place to get sick too. Never been anything I was interested in.
I been on 3 cruise ships haven’t seen a huge wave yet but I went to the Bermuda Triangle and lived oh and I saw the Atlantis resort I can’t wait to go back there
I was on the matson liner from Hawaii and the whole trip was like this. Only three people in the dining room me and two more. Mostly people were in their cabins and if they weren't they'd be holding a bag when they ran someplace
I will never understand why some people actually want to go on ocean cruise liners (or on any other boats in the ocean). What is the fascination with risking dying like this???
And being basically imprisoned with a thousand strangers! No, thank you, I'm good. 😊
Because we don't live in fear like you two. I just got off a cruise and it was an incredible experience. I'm also smart about when I go, (March / April / May) before hurricane season and risky weather.
There can be many reasons. Some people are too afraid to fly so they resort to a cruise instead to travel to other locations. People also just hope for the best! These incidents don’t happen often.
