I was thinking one day, it would be cool if they made a lower deck with windows beneath the ocean to view the underworld of the sea. Kind of like an aquarium.

You displayed perfect attitude, "I am now looking for fish"! Terrific sense of humor and a textbook example of how to weather a storm, no pun intended!

Bravo for not freaking out and doing the "Oh my god we're gonna sink" stuff. Great video, thanks for sharing!

All that cracking and popping on the ship would make me shut the curtains, put on 2 life jackets, hang over the toliet and puke my guts out while praying in between.

The constant creaking would freak me out.

I realy dont know if I would be sick. But I would be fasinated,, and a tad nervous!!...That sea, would swallow you, the ship, and all trace of it. A bit scary to think how realy small we are.

i dont know what would scare me more the waves or the creaking

Watching this gives me anxiety

OP sounds like a good person to be around in that kind of a situation. Most people would probably act stressed and/or depressed & sick, not cheering the waves as they go by.

you have the best personality for these situations! beautiful colors vs. oh we're gonna die! :-)

The footage of this cruise was simply amazing. The color of the sea is quite enchanting, exhilarating, and breathtaking.I wonder how the seamen fared during the age of sail, & endured the storms and waves of that era. Them lads must have been a hardy lot, to have weathered the ferocity and majesty of the world's oceans. I have the deepest of respect for them.

"Ocean view" cabin, indeed...

This lady has the coolest personality ever. She seems like the fun type haha beautiful and this is what I feared on my first cruise I honestly didn't think it could happen. This video proved me wrong lol thanks for sharing.

We were on that cruise from Baltimore, Md. The tv in our cabin actually fell off onto the floor. We were at lunch in the dining room when a huge wave hit us and glasses on tables on top floor began flying down and tables were moving everywhere. If it were not for another wave on the other side, we all truly believe we would have tipped over! Crew members were even saying "this is it". They were great though trying to make sure we were all ok....been on many cruises since then (5 last year) and we LOVE them..

My husband and I have been on several cruises and we are going to Bermuda on Holland America in May. This video shows exactly what I feared the first time we cruised in an ocean view room. I told my husband that my fear was being in a storm, and having the waves come up over the window so we felt like we were under water. He laughed and said "Uh, that never happens on a big cruise ship Honey, you are being silly." When I get home I'm showing him this video to prove that yes, seas DO get rough enough for this to happen when you are on a cruise ship! The people in the video are very calm and I assume they lived to show the video and tell the tale, but I would have been totally freaked out. The power and unpredictability of the Oceans are amazing. But that doesn't stop me from loving cruising!

It amazes me how strong the ships are that thousands of gallons of water can be deflected off the sides of the hull. A mere 2000 gallon wave weighs about 14,000 pounds moving at 2-3 miles per hour. That's a lot of force...LOL

Our cabin was on deck 1. The Storm started the evening before and had calmed down some when I took this video. There was a lot more up/down motion than side to side, the cables on the glass elevators were twanging and the elevators were swaying a lot. For a good look at what it looked like from the forward top side of the ship check out the you tube video Carnival Pride in the Atlantic November 2011. That video was taken by another passenger on the same ship same cruise as we were on.

She is having such a good time.. cool lady she is badass

After seeing this I still love cruising lol

The microphone on the camera used for this video is incredible; very accurate sound reproduction.

Absolutely breathtaking. The ocean is a dangerous but peaceful, beautiful and mysterious giant

What a great, positive person this lady is!! I would have been terrified!! I was just watching this video.

I love this. I would book a cruise now if they could promise rough seas!

I love the way you really enjoy nature and its power... it's simply beautiful! Lovely weather.

That would scare me! I love the excitement of the lady speaking... she's cute😊

lmao at 1:20 "I'm watching for fish now" xD

That'd scare the everloving shit out of me

I love big storms while on a cruise. Great video!!!

WOW!!!!!! Thanks for sharing..... Those waves were incredible!!!!!!

It kinda looked like there were a pair of legs When the last wave went over the window.......O _ O

i love how laid back the guy is.

That glass must be very thick....

That was beautiful. Thanks for sharing

I think I saw a mermaid in that last one! lol Great video...I'm leaving for my first cruise in 7 days!

I'm amazed at how calm you were through all of that! I got pretty frightened looking at this clip - and I'm not one that frightens easily!!! Never should have seen The Poseidon Adventure. Being that you obviously returned home unharmed, I thank you for posting. Oooo...so scary!

Cruise ships are designed for passenger comfort, not stability. They have a high center of gravity that allows a smoother ride in rough seas. The down side is that in extremely rough seas, they are very top heavy and will roll more easily and the risk of capsizing is greater if the waves are not maneuvered properly.

I loved when you said: " oh look the water is beautiful

I'd only pee myself a few dozen times

I went on the pride like... 6 years ago and has a blast!

From what I can find this was during Tropical Storm Sean. Great video!

I will NEVER take a cruise! Not just b/c of this, but b/c I like staying at my vacation destination and not have to worry about getting back on the ship by a certain time. Thanks for filming & posting this!

Amazing. You guys are so calm!

Was on the Princess Cruises Sapphire Princess during a huge storm while crossing Queen Charlotte Sound. 40-ft waves for about 20 hours straight. I'd say a good 70-80% of the people on the boat were incredible sea sick, even the crew. Luckily my family and I never got sick. We all spent a lot of time on boats so I guess we were somewhat immune to it. Still though, couldn't sleep because you would literally get thrown out of bed. Leaving for another cruise to mexico next week. Fingers crossed for good weather.

Omg.. I would have freaked out.. but at the same time it would have been cool.

I'd be up on the deck in my raincoat! This looks super fun! 😁

Loved this video!

id love this. grew up with the old man fishing and riding rough seas

My wife would freak out! Thanks for sharing. Sailing on the Pride in a few days.

Such a great video of the waves and wonderful narrator.

pretty awesome thx..i went on my first cruise in oct 2012 and we copped 15 plus meters.. i loved it lol..thx for the vid

How use not freaking out?? Boy I would be crying and freaking dying!!

That is so cool!!! Whenever I'm on a cruise with rough waves I jump down the stairs and it feels like zero gravity;) its so fun!!!

awesome to watch, thanks for posting

Nice! That looked really fun

Incredible video. Reminds me of my Navy days. I can't believe you weren't throwing up!

I secretly kinda wish I could experience that. LOL Thanks for the video.

I would be enjoying this too! Thank you for such a great video

I think this has to be my favorite cruise video...ever lol. I love turbulent seas when cruising... although not extremely turbulent lol. Now I know why there are no balconies on the Riviera deck! LOL Looking forward to the Pride in October :) Thanks for sharing your video!

Omg i remember getting so seasick on our last cruise, the boat was rocking for two days

Carnival Pride is one of my favorite boats I've been on

Looks beautiful.

How cool are u under the situation!!! Incredible footage!!

Outstanding video! Thank you so much for sharing!! Wish I had been there with you guys, that would've been loads of fun!

I love the color!!!!

hahahah i love how calm you are doing this.. I can handle the waves myself.. surprized me actually.. I can only watch them for awhile though.. but i did appreciatel your video.. thx for sharing.. I think the ocean is wonderful and im sure hooked on cruising :) hagd ..

Great video guys! Thanks for posting

Wow, now that is some rough weather!

Cool dude, cool wife!

9/12/13. WONDERFUL !!! I know a lot of people hate it when there is high seas, but for this formal Navy Cmdr., it calls me back to the seas. Great & fun to watch !!!

man look at those waves, the boat feels crazy when it goes up xD

Great! and I'm suppose to go on a cruise in September for the first time. I hope we don't experience any bad weather while on our trip.

And that is why you don't have balconies on lower decks....

One day on the Norwegian Sun I'd had 3 pina coladas just before we hit rough seas off Honduras. Dramamine and 3 pina coladas actually made me feel pretty good. Small wonder; had to go to bed early.

When you watch something like this you think the waves aren't that big but then you realize just how big cruise ships are and you the get the feeling how big the waves really are.

after being in rougher sea ride like this in a much smaller boat i fell sick just watching this lol

i loved it. my partner and i loved sitting and standing infront of the window and stare out into the ocean. ahh. nothing like it. however there is a scary side and would not like to have a bad experience at sea either

This womens awesome!! Her husbands like stand back from the window, shes like "ok" didnt move an inch!!! Great video!

That would be a scary sensation, watching the waves covering your window! I've been on five cruises and I've found the water in the Carribean is the roughest.

I love watching the waves, really I do.

On our cruise to the caribbean, the BEST day was the roughest day at sea! It was huge fun to see everyone veering away in the aisles; and we all got into the outdoor pool where the pool waves flung us from end to end, we were all screaming and laughing our heads off, it was huge fun!! no i am not a teenage, i was in my 50s!

i remember my hysband and i sailed in similar conditions! we laid in bed with our life vest on and watched thise waves crazh and the sounds of the cabin cracking was too much to beat!

I was on a cruise in February on the Carnival Pride and the waves went up to 25 feet! It was insane and we were delayed back to Maryland by like 6-7 hours

awwwww thatsss soo funnnny :D and youre guys was so lucky that got the cabin that far down on the boat i remeber i was on a trip like that with a cabin far down and it was like a washing machine i have never sleept s good in my life

sound the diving bell!! dive!! dive!! 10 degrees down bubble!! steady as she goes!! LOL!!:)

I dont mind the weather being a little rough. Makes it entertaining.

all I can say is OMG! I pray to never experience that and I know that's not the worse. Proud of you for your bravery And footage. Helpful.

Never had waves like these! Have only had calm seas. Would be interesting to see what this would feel like!

That looks like fun!!

Now that was a cool video!

I would probably be freaking out if I was on that cruise

great job. loved it

Went on freedom of the seas two yrs ago an same exact thing happen to me an I loved it

Are you kidding me? I'm going on my first cruise in 6 months and I'm so looking forward to something like this happening. I mean, I'll be happy if it doesn't, and I'll be happy if it does. Part of the excitement!!!!

i agree. i never get seasick... the waves just put me into a deep sleep

Wow, this footage is incredible!! A triple "Like" :) Thanks for posting the video!

thrilling! thanks for sharing!

Damn im getting sea sick just watching Cool video though

I keep waiting and hoping to get to see some waves like this on a cruise. One of these days...hopefully

i would be LOVING that...

Oh that's really swell...
