Massive Waves! Watch What Happens When a Huge Container Ship Turns!

[@pixieparis3803]

great photography and thanks for no music and just natural sounds

[@tshepomotau4354]

I wish North Sea can be as calm as this. 😢😢😢

[@markcardwell]

That bow is ominous. Thx

[@cargoships]

Yeah, the bow of a ship can definitely look intimidating, especially when it's approaching at full speed! Thanks for your comment!

[@davidgriffiths7696]

Dramatic footage, close up photography, interesting tropical channel, atmospheric sound of estuary water birds, very nice video, love it.

[@tshepomotau4354]

I guess he meant massive ships. 😂😂😂😂😂

[@cargoships]

You're probably right! The big ships are really impressive to look at, and their sheer size always leaves a lasting impression when they're on the river. Thanks for pointing that out!

[@BillHughes-wt5ud]

Where are these massive waves?

[@cargoships]

Long Tau river in Vietnam

[@MR-ub6sq]

Such "tide" situations require, above all, that there is sufficiently shallow water on the fairway or at least next to it. If the route were deep, such a tidal phenomenon between the ship's bow and stern would not occur

[@cargoships]

That’s a great observation! The depth of the waterway plays a crucial role in creating these 'tide-like' effects. In shallow waters, the interaction between the ship and its surroundings amplifies these phenomena, while deeper routes minimize such occurrences.

[@MR-ub6sq]

@@cargoships Right. The propellers of such large ships create a huge suction next to the sides of the ship and on the other hand leave behind an immediately equalizing excess pressure as the ship's keel acts as a suction-distributing barrier between the port and starboard sides of the ship. I don't know how much the sharp turn of the ship strengthens or weakens the phenomenon, but in my own experience, when the ship is traveling straight ahead and the distance from the side of the ship to the gently sloping island is about 100 meters and the channel depth is 6.5 meters, as soon as the ship's bow slides next to the island, the beach sand that was under the water of the island begins to be exposed. The point in the channel in question is less than a meter from the bottom of the ship to the minimum depth of the channel. When you see this phenomenon for the first time on the shore of an island, it is amazing how it starts as if by magic. The ship's propellers suck in a massive amount of water from the side of the ship, and when the water leaves behind - there is no time to create a hole in the side of the ship, because the water from further away drains efficiently to replace the sucked-in water. Of course, in such a place, one must not travel at too high a speed, so as not to touch the bottom. When the stern of the ship has passed the island, water begins to flood onto its shores. If the channel is wide enough or deep enough, the tidal phenomenon is not so clearly noticeable.

Fine ship👍 Quality welding.

[@busman2000]

That vessel is traveling way too fast for inland territorial water ways , no matter where in the world it is.

[@rikidozan93]

That's why you're not a sea captain with an unlimited rating. The ability to turn sharply in tight quarters with a large vessel requires maintaining adequate speed, on the water, otherwise the ship would lose control, and not be able to complete the turn. This is not the same as driving a bus on the land, busman200! Landlubbers need not apply.

[@reinardinaarreman1461]

Open sea? Sharp turn?

[@reynoutdecourt7983]

Click bait. Where are the waves; massive???

[@pixieparis3803]

it shows the force created by the velocity of the ship really well.

[@WavesAndWild]

Great Shot

[@cargoships]

Thank you!

[@rdembow]

Where is this river,Vietnam ?

[@cargoships]

Long Tau river near Ho Chi Minh city, Cat Lai port

[@dannychan90192]

Slow down when in narrow river

[@cargoships]

You're absolutely right! Navigating through narrow rivers requires caution and slower speeds to avoid accidents and ensure safety. It's always important for ships to adjust their speed depending on the environment.

[@brendapyron459]

What waves?

[@tonymassarelli5993]

So what happened then - anything ?

[@Visionery1]

Interesting! Waves from cruise ships are eating away at the the buildings in Venice.

[@cargoships]

Interesting!

[@wtb4441]

Hello, nice close-ups and the waves are also impressive. But... can you please show us some long shots as well? Perhaps with a view of the spot on the map? Then your close-ups would be even more impressive. It's nice to look at the wave or the hull, but it doesn't say much. Thanks for that.

[@cargoships]

Thank you for your great suggestion! We’ll definitely consider adding long shots to provide more context in future videos. We're glad you enjoyed the close-ups and waves, and we appreciate your input to make our content even better. Thanks for watching! 😊

[@MrSpikebender]

If the ship gods are giving you waves...surf

[@cargoships]

Good idea!

[@Hank-the-Writer]

Shouldn't be going that fast in a narrow waterway.

[@garyjohnson4575]

Damn GPS is malfunctioning again!

[@snarkybuttcrack]

floating junkyards

[@jillbray6265]

I cant believe that ship is allowed to go that fast in inland water, the waves cause terrible damage to the shore. Its irresponsible. there should be speed limits.

[@cargoships]

You're absolutely right! Fast speeds in inland waters can cause significant damage to the shore and surrounding areas. There are regulations in many places to limit ship speeds, especially near coastal zones, to reduce such impact. It's important to find a balance between efficiency and environmental safety

[@ClintonDonny-pr6jo]

MTT Port Kelang please

[@davidmackey344]

Big deal. Ships out there twice the size as these.

[@ayubesoop8825]

Sorry, the person who made this video does not know the meaning of massive waves. So sad.

[@cargoships]

Thank you for your feedback! Could you clarify what you mean by 'massive waves'? It would help improve future content. Appreciate your input!

[@nickpond9337]

IF IF YOU CAN NOT SEA ! a SHIP THAT BIG COMING TOWARD ' s THEN YOU SHOULD NOT BE ON THE WATER , luckerly their where NO leek ' s ;

[@AJ-tz6qu]

I used to say that these people should be flipping burgers at McDonald's but I have never been treated badly by someone working at McDonald's. Most of these LEOs couldn't make it in the private sector. Too much responsibility, accountability.

[@vanguard9067]

Why re these ships turning around in the same location?

[@vsvnrg3263]

it seems to be a bend in the river to get to the actual port. i think i saw that is long tao river to ho chi minh city.

[@vanguard9067]

@ thank for the info.

[@johnvalencia7488]

That is a big a$$ ship!

I've had bigger waves in my fish pond!!!!

Absolutely! These massive container ships are incredible examples of modern engineering and the backbone of global trade. It’s amazing to see how they keep the world connected!
