🔴 #TERRIFYING Footage. What It's Like On-Board a Ship In a North Sea STORM #waves #Storm #ocean

Ship in Storm on Board Grampian Contender.
100 NAUTICAL MILES NORTH EAST OF SHETLAND

We film some of the largest waves ever caught on camera.
We work with 2 oil platforms that can accurately measure wave height so no guessing or exaggeration.
Enjoy 🌊🌊

And Meet the Crew

Filmed over a 3 day period, this video shows a storm in the North Sea.
This ship and it's crew of 15 eat, sleep and work at sea for a month at a time.

Spent a large part of my life on Semi-Submersible Rigs in the North Sea. Used to love the real rough weather like shown in this video. Jokingly we would call this "Spot The Standby Boat Weather" and literally it sometimes was so rough that the standby boat would disappear from view apart from the top of their masts such was the size of the waves. I used to feel for the guys working ships in this weather as on a semi sub motion is much reduced.

This guy deserves subs for not adding music

Spent my life at sea; mainly on the bridge. My teachers said I would never get anywhere staring out the windows all day long. How wrong they were.

At age 10 in 1955 our family was emigrating from Germany to the US on a former troop transport. It was November and we were hit by a storm like this in the North Sea. My 9y/o brother and I decided to go out on deck to check out all the excitement. Upon opening the door I remember seeing huge waves washing over the sides and what I now know were lifelines strung out. Suddenly someone grabbed us by the nape of the neck, shoved us down the gangway and scolded us in English. We didn’t understand but we got the message. I’ve never forgotten that day or the fierceness of the storm even though it was over sixty years ago. I have immense respect for “ those who go out in ships!”

My most sincere respect for any person that does this for a living.

[crzyofficial]

Imagine people back in the days on wooden ships. Insane

Thank you for posting and an even bigger THANK YOU for NO MUSIC!! Just the natural sounds well done

[nibordiabla]

I love putting these kinds of videos on when I get ready for bed. No music, just the sound of the sea and the rocking of the ship. Very peaceful.❤

[ThomasTheSergal]

I love how it's completely ambient noise. No annoying ass music slapped over it. I subbed dude. Nice content

That guy drinking coffee thinking: "Maybe my mother was right about studying accounting"...

[shawngraham]

Impressive that these ships endure so much without breaking in half
You can hear the creaking popping and cracking so good without lame music covering it up
It takes special people to work in these conditions away from family
Hats off to all who do this for a living and prayers for safe journey

I'm a yacht delivery skipper and have sailed in most of the world's oceans. But never have I been more frightened and seasick than I have been in the North Sea. It can be a truly awful place, bloody awful!

Spent my teen years working as a deck hand on charter boats and lobstering before joining the Navy at 18 and spending 30 years underwater on submarines and forward deployed on surface ships. Literally sailed the seven seas, through typhoons, hurricanes and pirate infested waters, and now in my 60's am out in the mountains and occasionally remembering the beauty of the sea and her power but always remembering the men and women that make their livings sailing on her with respect and wonderment in their eyes

What many people may not realize is how tiring being at sea in this sort of weather is. Every muscle in your body is constantly working just to stay on your feet. Even when in your bunk you are constantly working to prevent being thrown out. It's a tough job.

As a former USN sailor, I loved being at Sea. Ran into rough seas crossing the North Atlantic, the Med & sailing from Norfolk to Gitmo into a storm. The rougher the better, for me. Another plus was, I never slept better than when we were underway. That is when you learn that your body is connected to the Ocean.

I loved my time working on the fishing trawlers that sailed off the North West Coast of Ireland. I loved the sea but it also scared the shit out if me which teaches you to respect the sea too. My thoughts with all the brave men and women who were lost to the water and their families. ❤️

[msm]

I love the open water but terrified of it at the same time. I would be physically sick being on this ship tossing around like that. Major respect for folks that make a living from careers out in the sea.

[hakeemdj]

that's why I appreciate all of the seafarers. they are so brave.

This is nothing compared to my experiences as a 7 year old on the local kids boating lake in Barnsley. we really had to use our imagination and of course, there were always the Pirates. God knows how we survived.
