Here Be Dragons.

Oh, you'll want to put commas between them there tags.

Upvoted, but needs more footage of great big giant kickass waves.

Bernard Hill (Theoden) narrating... awesome!

Scary...

Well everything about seas deeper than 10 meters are scary stuff.

Lesson: Stop naming big ships after German cities.

Whoa, did you see that ship at 25s? The front fell off! I thought they fixed that.

Never declare your vessel unsinkable.

jrbedford says...

I don't get all of the drama about the waves... isn't this just basic physics in essence, paired with very unlikely chance? Sure, this isn't supposed to happen very often, but the oceans are freaking huge and over the course of time it'll happen tons of times. What am I missing here?

JRBedford, Thats the point of the docu yes. Nobody believed they were real until a new theory about wave formation was developed.
