Boating Videos
« on: October 16, 2007, 23:51:25 »
Got any you want to share? God knows I have a ton, but I'll start with a few.

The fisherman in this clip a pure American classic... he has so many bloopers of his fishing show up on YouTube that sometimes I wonder if it's all real. But trust me, it is all too real. This is one of the funnier bits in my opinion:

Truly frightening crash between a sailboat and a ferry (?)... I don't know what the outcome was but I know it can't be pretty.

I saved the best for last. Greenpeace rammed (who rammed who is questionable, but I'm confident it was them) a Japanese whaling boat. They don't like whalers, so they take it into their own hands to careen into anyone who is whaling. Grrr...  >:( I'll stop myself here, I could rant on and on about this clip. Just watch:

I recomend clicking through the related video section becuase there are numerous of the same event, all from different angles. Form your own opinion.

Post your videos!  ;D

Have you seen the one where the tugboat gets trapped in a fast current during high tide, and gets submerged under a bridge, and pops back up perfecly fine?

And of course, the classic Windoc incident. Lopping off the entire bridge by a drawbridge lowering too early would be a cool feature to add to SS  ;D

Read about the incident and how the disabled ship floating in a busy shipping canal was dealt with here:

I've always craved an explanation for what happened in that video. It's so scary to see the captain fly off the stern.

US Navy ship near collision at sea (video starts a little late, but you can infer from their wake how close they got)

Photos of an actual collision about to take place between two tankers

scary rogue wave on a megayacht almost washes 2 crewmembers overboard
