One of craziest clips I’ve seen. How on earth did they all survive?

I hate it that they have done this and i'm against this sort of generic breeding, Same with what they've done with some breeds of dogs and now they suffer because we want something unusual such as Pugs. Same with cats now, creating breeds that have health consequences down the line, Can't we just enjoy what nature gave us?

There's a great similarity between Delta P and that weird but wonderfully interesting part of youtube everyone ends up getting sucked into

I'd guess that the waves are probably not anything that these sort of ships don't commonly encounter but having lost power, it wasn't able to maneuver head-on into the waves. Still scary to be on board at the time!

"oh no, not the Steinway"
What about the roof falling on your head love
Scary stuff, I've been on HMS Ocean and Bulwark during my time in the forces (Army), Bay of Biscay and the Baltic sea were extremely traumatic experiences in my life,and we had full engine power! Well, I say full, not sure those old rustbuckets ever had full engine power
Without engines they are basically just a cork at full mercy to the forces of nature, screw that.

You'd be amazed at what ships can handle. Surprised there was no redundancy for the steering at least. I'd love to know what caused that engine failure, in terms of engineering those big diesels are indestructible so it must have been a controls issue. I'm amazed ships are allowed with SPF.
