Yeah that's exactly what's going on here.

I watched at 2x speed.

Hello fellow St.Juster,!!! there's another huge wave that breaks over Senen lifeboat station, right up over the cliff top!

yeah okay smarty pants, then how tall are they exactly ?

It would take your breath away being that close

​@rhythmisadancer8394 yes and also blow my Wig off if I had one on me. Watching this is I guess is one way of Blowing it big time. You see I love waves watching and even if I came across a Crime Wave I wouldn't report it because I would wave back . Same as standing at the seaside beach watching waves I would wave back saying why hello there .😊😅😂

They are miles away...ever heard of telephoto compression

The footage and commentry was almost entirely about Cornwall and SW England, Wales only got a fleeting mention.

Who cares anyway?

Now Now calm down and Chile or I'm going to have to ground you and anymore off that no Icecream for no weeks. Because there won't be Icecream. Children calm peace and jam. The end of that Thank God.😊😅😮😂

free wales !!!!,,,,,with every packet of cornflakes 😂......ya mupp

The welsh.

The biggest waves on the planet are seen in the Atlantic ocean, but we're protected from them due to the continental shelf. As waves move out of the deep ocean, their power which extends deep into the ocean (Think of the surface waves being part of an energy phenomenon akin to an iceberg e.g. the top part is a manifestation of something far larger) the lower part of the energy source then drags across the increasingly shallow continental shelf and takes all the sting out of the wave by the time they hit our shores thankfully. One place in the Atlantic where this can be seen not to be the case is Nazare in Portugal. There's a massive canyon that cuts through the continental shelf right up to Nazare, so the full force of the waves from the Atlantic move up the deep canyon and make landfall - hence the massive surfing waves seen at Nazare that are in the region of 100' (30 metres) or more. If it wasn't for the continental shelf our coasts around the UK would regularly see waves of that magnitude. These waves in this vid are relatively small - made more dramatic with the use of long focal length lenses.

wave height depends upon fetch, the strength of the wind, and the period of time that the wind blows. for example: a super strong wind that blows for 20 minutes, will not produce waves as big as the same strength wind that blows for 45 hours. Or, light winds blowing for 20 hours will produce smaller waves than a stronger wind blowing for 20 hours. then there's the fetch element. Essentially the distance over which the winds can blow. This is why the southern ocean is so notoriously rough. There is no land to break the winds. They just circle the earth, roaring round and round. But the Pacific is so big that it also can see enormous waves. Though the North Atlantic is notorious for being rough, especially in winter. This is largely to do with the warm gulf stream, and the air above it, rushing north into the colder water and air.

​@@someblokecalleddave1 so you were there? I was

Deus me livre que horror

I think 15-20 meters high

​@i think not. The footage is abused. The biggest wave recorded in uk was 22 meters but in ocean. In brittany near isle of ouessant the biggest recorded was 24 meters. Probably around 10 meters there.

That is indeed Cape Cornwall and not Nazarre. I have stood by that house and watched the sea. Albeit, never quite as impressive as that. Cape Cornwall is indeed a place. Just NW of St Just. It is a gorgeous spot. Good for rockpooling, great walks, plenty of wildlife and a National Trust carpark. Well worth a visit.

Everything you said was wrong

You should look up the percentage of Welsh speakers in Wales. Also learn to read a map.

And Grandma is really called Grandad

There are two Capes in the UK, Cape Wrath at Durness Scotland, and Cape Cornwall, between Geevor and Lands End Cornwall

Even worse is when they try to say Worcestershire 😂

There is a place called Cape Cornwall,with a,NationalTrust carpark,( where some of this was filmed,near the village of St Just,lovely place

There is a place called Cape Cornwall. I live near there. It's about a mile or so further east than Sennen Cove and just outside a little town called St Just. There's even a Cape Cornwall golf club. 5 or 6 years back we had waves crashing onto the cliffs next to Sennen cove that were incredibly 250 ft high. Theres a great picture of them dwarfing the lifeboat house down in the cove.

Get a map, look at the north side of Cornwall near Lands End, definitely a place called Cape Cornwall.

@@jeremyclifford1664, it’s a magical place, I’ve visited on two occasions.

I'd probably get a map out before making such an idiotic statement.

QWERTY diarrhoea.

its real. I live there

I totally agree. That was the first thing that I thought!

They’re not superimposed, I have been there in storms. The camera work is a bit dodgy but in many places in Cornwall, North and South you get huge waves in stormy weather.
