SHIP Horn compliation - Pt1

mighty horns of mega carriers.

[tobiandobito]

That first ship is a masterpiece and the horn is something out of War of the Worlds.

Admit it, you searched for this stuff

The horn's of these ships have got to be one of the coolest and manliest things on the planet. I would so love to experience this in real life.

Crazy to think how big the Great Lakes have to be for ships like these to operate on the waters.

Excellent composition and audio. Really captures things nicely. Love the echos and other ship responses, too. Especially like the winter stuff!

[Fatalleopard]

It’s pretty spooky seeing them covered in snow and sailing on the ice.

I just bluetooth the first horn through my car speakers on full volume 😅 i've never seen someone move out the way so damn quick

[wilsonwondercock]

I love the old ships with their two tone horns blaring.

[aaronsoto]

man you would never think places exist like this on the world. Looks so awesome when that big tankers just pulling into some icey desert love it.

[herzglass]

First ship's designer: How intense do you want the horn to be?
Chatter: YES

I also love the modulation of that sound - as with many fog horns on land - you hear that pressure build up before the actual note sounds. Makes it sound more alive and almost organic.

Never will forget the first and last time a ship like one of these sounded it’s horn at me and a childhood friend when I was about 14. Was out fishing in deep waters offshore (Atlantic Ocean) just far enough we couldn’t see land anymore. In a 12 foot aluminum boat with a 7.5hp 1950’s Johnson on it… Lol. Probably sounds crazy to some people, but this is how we were raised on the water back then, and I’d been going offshore for years at that point. Even in relatively rough seas, in first a 10ft, then later a 12 foot “V” hull aluminum. Anyhow, I was coming in, in the shipping lane traffic. And most people also don’t know, these huge freighter ships go pretty fast. Much faster than I could go in my boat, even when it was up on plane.
One of these ships snuck up behind me out of seemingly nowhere, and blasted its horn at me, and held it down for a really long blast! It was unreal! Scared the living sh!t out of both of us. It was so loud, I would swear the rivets were going to vibrate out of my little boat and have it fall apart right there. I barely managed to get out of the way in time because it was so fast, and got launched off about a 6 foot breaking wave the bow of that ship was pushing!! I remember looking way up above us, and seeing the top of that rounded ball they have on the end of their bow down near the water. Well when on the water next to it, that bulbous round hull point is HUGE. The top of the ship was probably the size of a 15 story building passing right next to us. Haha Easy to laugh now, not so at the time.
The thing that gets small boats with these ships, is their speed, and complete silence on the water. You can’t hear them at all. No engine noise, no nothing until AFTER they’ve passed you! That is, unless they sound their horn! 📢📢📢📢😭😱😱

4:40 That tear in the hull looks worrying.

[MrKnoxguy]

These are the big ole work horses, impressive pieces of machinery.

[SpanielRacing]

1:00 Does the front of this ship being white remind you of when people get those horrible white bits of phlegm & spit in the corners of their mouths?! lol, grim!😂

[papagrounds]

I'll bet that some poor dude/lady has been just casually sitting in their home like 500m away listening some relaxing music and suddenly shat in their pants.

[barkerjames]

That first ship has an awesome horn, but an even better name 😂😂

[TheArchmage]

The first one is DAMN AWESOME AND STRONG.

[Lone_Vaquero]

Imagine if the Spartans had one of these things, you’re on the battlefield banging your weapon on your shields waiting for your leader to give the signal(the sounding of the ship horn) and when it happens all of the opposing army stops dead in their tracks horrified by the loud, sudden, blaring horn, some try to run away, others are knocked over and trampled, everything is chaotic now, and that’s when you charge, the few enemies that remain standing finally snap back to reality and start to return the charge and after a bit of fighting you and you’re fellow Spartans claim victory

[Wheels-Wheels-Wheels]

Great video. Would love to visit Duluth to see and hear this in person. I'm guessing you don't just hear these ships horns, but feel them as well.

0:21 I want to build a massive fucking warship using this horn
