At one stage I saw a guy climbing into one of those big traps....You'd have to be flamin' nuts to do that!!
Good movie. I've never seen before.
Ta matey :)

And thanks for the stills Saurian. Yep, the amount of water in that second picture is mindboggling.
You must have a good collection of pictures matey as you seem to pull a pearler out every-now-and-again. :o
Cheers Scott :)

Now those are some serious swells.....

In the first season of the Deadliest Catch there was a clip of the guys doing some "hang time". They stand at the forecastle and jump into the air every time the bow of the boat clears a swell crest and hurtles itself down the back of the greenie. Those guys did some freefalling of almost two seconds where they would be a good 4 feet off the deck just hanging there before being smacked down hard when the boat reaches the bottom of the swell...... Talk about some at risk behaviour and health and safety concerns.....not!

You can not pay me enough to do that job, sorry...

Hows it going guys
You couldn't pay me enough money to get me out in those seas it boggles the mind how violent the deep blue can be. I saw one episode where the boat took a rouge wave flank on and it knocked it on its side.
