watching this type of stuff really makes you appreciate things like warmth and comfort. but it also seems really cozy to me to be on a boat in rough weather.

sunset gradient idk why but it seems really cozy to be inside a small warm sailboat during a storm. Something about the boat being the only barrier between you and the weather outside makes you appreciate the boat more.

No kidding bro .lol

@@5000mahmud Until there's too much green water coming over the bow or even worst, the stern. Then you're scrambling for your life jacket, life boat, emergency responder.

Hell yeah. That’s what it’s all about! What were you sailing? When I was still pretty green, I Sailed my laser through 15-16knts & hit the drink while trying to tack…. Freaked me out but I Learned a lot about managing trim and body position that day. Dry to this day lol

Get some training! If you don't, you'll kill yourself. Or, someone else might get killed trying to rescue you.

A Hurricane is 11 on the beaufortscale, this was „only“ a 10, and damn yess, it is a difference! A boat like this one is in the highest category a, means it must withstand these conditions. In case of a emergency, coast guard is informed aput his trip, when he wants to be where and will automaticly look afger him, in case of no report of returning or entering save waters. I don‘t think, that they have to rescue this viking, he really semms to know what he is doing - he fucking LIVES!! 👍🏻

Like a true viking would do

Hi Erik. You is Wonderful !! Take care... ;) 🙏🌷

Learning how to live by needlessly putting you life in danger? It's foolish if you ask me, especially if one has a wife and children that love and cherish you and who would be emotionally devastated by your death. In fact, in such a case, it is pure selfishness. I dont know this fellow, maybe he does not have a family. It's academically interesting that one would have to intentionally risk one's life to "feel alive" don't you think?

The ocean is the most powerful force on earth. It’s beautiful, but can take your life in a flash. It definitely needs to be respected. It also can be calm, beautiful, and healing. Although, sometimes it just likes to remind us how powerful it is.

Great delivery! You got me at "That's why...".

No, he is an example why stupid people get encouraged to deliberately put their lives in danger. Yes, a storm is fun, but it is just stupid to seek one out. Like really piss poor seamenship. Any sailor with a brain will tell you that. :-P

@@104thironmike4 he’s still awesome.

@@104thironmike4 Lots of people would say that racing cars is stupid and pursuing racing as a hobby is stupid. Does that mean that racing isn't worth doing? No. Different strokes for different folks, my friend. Just because you don't feel drawn towards intense situations doesn't mean that it's stupid. Humanity moves forward one step at time. If everyone only sailed in fair weather, no one would have ever crossed the Atlantic, let alone circumnavigate the world.

@@RX120D Absolute utter rubbish, bud. Racing is a calculated risk. Sailing in bad weather is either bad luck (can happen), or just utter stupidity. In racing you can hit your brakes and stop the car if necessary. In sailing, when things get out of hand, there is no such thing. It is reckless and a piss poor, if not one of the worst examples for upcoming sailors. I am drawn to intense situations, and I spent half my life on and under the sea. Remember these words, if you ever attempt sailing yourself: "in bad weather, poor sailors are sailing and good sailors sit in the tavern and drink rum." Any experienced and responsible sailor will tell you that. Additionally: if you endanger yourself like that, you also risk the lives of those who will ultimately come to rescue you, if you'd manage to alert them. And you cross the Atlantic 100% in the good weather and never in the bad weather season. It's not different strokes for different blokes. It's just ppl with half a brain vs utter morons like this guy.

@@104thironmike4 Too bad Dale Earnhardt and Ayrton Senna didn't know they could just hit the brakes and come safely to a stop, huh? You seem to ignore the Fastnet race where a fuckload of sailors have died in past years due to inclement weather. Should we call that off? Handwaving away the preparation of bad weather sailors as a prologue to stupidity is ridiculous. Better not fly over an ocean! Your plane might crash and people will need to risk their lives to save you. If you don't want to take risks then don't. Others do. Others understand the risk and calculate their chances and push the boundaries of what's possible when it's possible. Sometimes shit goes wrong, other times it doesn't. You know what we call risk, documentation, demonstration, and replication? Progress.

A lot of fear is produced by knowledge. I flinch when someone pulls back their fist and aims at my face because I KNOW what that means.

@@rose1742 I think his point is something like "Yes, but once you are hit, your fear is replaced by the pain. Now you deal with the reality, not the fear of it".

@TheAwwyee He was a real sailor who understood how to deal with such conditions and stay calm...stay calm. He understood the limitations of the boat, the gear, the fear and lack of experience of the others on board, he took command and lead us to safe waters. My father was in over his head, he was learning first hand what making a poor decision on a boat could earn you. He was still smart enough to know to bring Brian along. Brian was later lost at sea years later. He left two beautiful daughters and wife behind. Very sad. No one knows what was the cause or how or why. He just went to sea solo and never came back. PS: I bought a 44ft sloop this summer and have big plans for future, wish me good luck.

@@zackworrell535 thanks for sharing Zach, may the wind be at your back and the tides in your favor

That reminds me of when my dad took me and my friend out off the California coast and the engine shut off. There was no visibility and we were drifting to the shore but the coast was huge cliffs so there was nowhere safe to get off. It was terrifying hearing the waves smash into the cliffs and so foggy out that you can’t see anything passed the boat. He dropped an anchor but we were still getting pushed to the cliff. If he didn’t have that radio we woulda been dead for sure.

I bought a feather duster.

I always sleep like a baby when it is very rough. Crossed Biscay in a Force 11 but not so bad on a 40,000 ton ferry!

Funnily enough, the Nordic mythology final reckoning ended in a huge tsunami

Interestingly, in deep open water a boat is likely unaffected by a tsunami. The way the wave moves, the destruction and chaos occurs when the ocean floor starts to rises to the beach and the water meets the coast.

That is true

Doing something unsafe just to face your fears is foolhardy, not wise.

Wait until you're helpless, physically and mechanically unable to do ANYTHING about your situation, you know only two things: you'll survive it or you won't. Period. I say this with over 55 years on the Bering Sea, Gulf of Alaska, and the Arctic Ocean. Nay, fear as awareness had better be your constant companion, a wariness and always being in the moment; even especially on calm, sunny days. Those beautiful days are when people tend to let their guard down, start spacing out, and the next thing you know you're staring from the water at your vessel sailing away from you. Or there's a fire up forward and you're in a tight spot with reefs, currents and no room for error. Having a through hull fitting snap off is another. I could go on and on, but don't want to bore anybody or hijack the story any more than I already have. Being clipped onto a safety line sailing alone is my first choice too. 50% of drowned people in Alaska were found with their pants unzipped, indicating they were taking a pee at the rail and forgot Rule # 1: one hand for the rigging, the other for aiming. On my fishing boats I always told the crew to pee in the scuppers, or even on the deck if the weather was up at all.There are so many more things that can and do go wrong at sea, I lost so much of my family while young and many friends over the decades, I will never say I don't have fear. it's a measure of respect for the sea as an element much bigger and more heartlessly powerful than anywhere else on the planet. It's being on another planet. Mastering your fear and working with and through it is the trick. Don't panic. It will turn out one way... or the other. Fight through "with all your strength of arm and heart and brain, and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again..." (Stan Rogers. If you don't know of his music, do find some on KZfaq.) I don't mean to sound like a know-it-all and I am not conceited, but I lived through many tight moments over the years where I didn't know if I was going to make it for hours, sometimes days, on end. Thanks for the little slice of Norway, I wish I could return to my ancestral roots. Too damned old now. Best to you in your further adventures and life in general.
