Free Fall Lifeboat Launching (FFLB) from inside

Free Fall Lifeboat drill on panamax bulk carrier, view from inside and in slow motion.

[@Dman-jr8ey]

Seriously, this clip did not need music

[@slickstretch6391]

Especially that music

[@corb765]

lol i was thing the same thing

[@BLACKHOLE-hi2nc]

True

[@gavcom4060]

okay and

[@seanbishop82]

Yeah it did..

[@mattyjohnsson257]

Ditch music. No pun intended.

[@yardietraxx]

TF is up with that music? Was that playing in the boat?

[@BurntWifi]

Yeah

[@KatWrangler]

Very cool! Who needs roller coasters when you have this!

[@steveneyles8957]

Interesting to see one being launched. I can understand the obvious need for this on a Bunker Ship!

[@Bozo_Lord]

the love these guys have for one another, absolutely baller

[@youtubynotme]

I was wondering. What if the ship listed really badly after you were inside and strapped down. Would there still be a way to release it if the angle prevented a free fall? Or, would the boat have to wait for it's buoyancy to free it.

[@sofamiller7133]

I was wondering the same thing. I know listing is a problem for lowered lifeboats, so I was curious if the launch platform maybe gave the vehicle more clearance, at least.

[@orbshipp5760]

The Shipp lifeboats are designed to break away or calabrate themselves at about 30 feet.

[@russellmoore8187]

Fun fact: in any video, the guy in the bucket hat is the most excited

[@aarphi1984]

Honestly less jarring of an impact than I was expecting!

1:26 lol the classic Hollywood explosion walk away shot XD

[@JAYFULFILMZ]

This wasn’t as bad as it looks! I assumed chaos in the boat & broken necks if not properly secured but it doesn’t even seem that would happen! Bravo these things!

[@UndoingRuin08]

If you tilt the pitch of the ramp down like 5 more degrees, you can do a sweet front flip with the emergency vessel. You may as well bail with style if you have to bail.

[@dragonclaws9367]

Exactly as I imagined. That is a dangerous fall hold on tight.

[@caseydorn3309]

No one mentions that the drivers hands aren't visible, it doesn't look like there's anyone in the driver's seat at all. And the launch isn't generated by that person if they were even there, because they would have to grab a lever on the left side to release the latch. Which means, most of this didn't follow protocol unless I'm missing something, which I probably am.

[@masupilami7533]

The Crew seams to be having god fun, but I would play to that action a different music; What is more appropiate than Van Halens "Jump" ? ;-)

Stayin Alive by the Beegees. Since the life boats are used to evacuate in an emergency. So technically you are "stayin alive lol.

[@amicomacchinista]

🔝💯 over the top

[@paulj.thaddaios]

Now that was cool

[@harisetiyoadi9354]

why you use emergency methode for release the hook instead using hydraulic lever near the helmsmen seat ?

[@Chris-Christopher-]

fun

[@ddegn]

My guess is the normal release if from a forward facing seat. It's likely less jarring to hit the water back first.

[@ddegn]

My guess is confirmed in a reply from the uploader.

[@CaptEks]

Bro can share me the life boat seating name, like master, co, and other crew location to seat inside the life boat, Thank you

[@pdxthomas]

Anyone know the rough maximum, travel range of this class of lifeboat? How much fuel capacity?

[@richexe]

It's really not specified rules about travel range or fuel capacity. In SOLAS Regulation 17 mentioned only that life boat shall be provided to run the fully loaded lifeboat at 6 knots for a period of not less than 24 h.

[@JavierRodriguez-zb9ju]

Background music is unnecessary. It spoils the documentary. // La música de fondo sobra. Malogra el documental.

[@bacolodeats3885]

From ahhhhhh..... To wooooohhhhh hahaha

[@imnotmelvin3]

Awesome

[@ZCJKF13GDG4]

wow how do they suck it back up like that

[@ddegn]

There's a winch as part of the system.

[@crunkyboii7917]

That looks so fun

[@atomicsmith]

The music really helps this clip.

[@dennisx4492]

Music is stupid. I'm glad I wasn't the only one to think that

[@mrtexas0187]

What the heck is that guy doing on the left ?

[@ddegn]

He's turning the release mechanism.

[@CaptEks]

Bro can share me y seating picture

[@worldweary1913]

Lets hope they never experience the real thing. That splash would be the easy part.

Music 🔥🔥

Что за музыка? What's the music?

[@DougEStile-gj7wy]

Get rid of the music and you'll have a much better video.
