Ship Launch | 10 Awesome Waves, FAILS and CLOSE CALLS

Compilation of the best satisfying ship launch videos I recorded including some surprising clips like the amphibious vehicles or the inclined planes at the Elblag Canal. The awesome sideways ship launches take place in Leer, Germany and Westerbroek, The Netherlands. The biggest ship in this video was launched in Flensburg, Germany.

5:34 is nobody gonna say anything about the guy on the bike

I like that 3000 years of shipbuilding history and we still don't have anything better than "nah, just chuck it in!"

[johanjensen]

Genuinely never fails to amaze me, how huge ships are.

YouTube after i watched one video about the Suez Canal: oh so you like videos about ships then, here are 100 more in your recommendations.

3:31 Was a GREAT shot to show how big they really are

Found it amazing that they look both heavy on land and yet light at the same time looking at how they bounce on the water 😂

This was FASCINATING to watch; completely hypnotic. I kept waiting for the people to get soaked with the waves, and they barely moved. That's precision - to know EXACTLY where the wash from the wave is going to stop on the road. Thanks for posting.

ive never even thought about how they get ships into the water...

5:35 that made me laugh out loud seeing how a ship is being launched and at the same time that guy casually drives by as if nothing is happening

5:35 The moped passing by in the last second was an awesome catch!

Worked at Smith's dock Southbank in the 70s. loved launch day, the speed a ship went, replaced by a gust of wind and rush of water and noise of drag chains. As an apprentice and tradesman, seen Manchester and clipper boats launched. Worked amongst legends . Moulded me with humour and character.Bless them all.

The honking is the ships screaming in fear.

Less than a minute in the water and they dent the thing. Nice going, lads.

[Scandi]

I like how the people on the grass didnt seem at all phased by the waves and just stood there.

[jaybee]

OK, the amphibious rigs at 4:15 are some of the coolest things I’ve ever seen.

Best Coronavirus quarantine content ever.

Imagine someone walking into my room at 2am and seeing me watch boats get launched

[NowGoBananas]

Moving water is so ridiculously powerful

[HighTech-milh]

Wow. The ships were launching like giant monsters. They are great!
