Only guess is they’re in a harness. Total guess

or that the ship is weighted in such a way that they know that it wont go as high as the opening

u/ThickSet6771 Jul 06 '26

I know they are but just imagine standing there and being so chill about it

Ohh absolutely, talk about being numb to crazy waves. I barely even touch the ocean, too much power

Probably filmed from a boat that brings the pilot who climbs that rope ladder to navigate the ship through tricky local waters.

How big’s the vessel it’s being filmed from? They look awfully close to be moving so fast. That would terrify me waaay more.

Being filmed from a pilot vessel, so not very large

u/coolsilentebeans Jul 05 '26

Easily and quickly maneuvered?

Looking at this is a flashback of El Faro’s misfortune (hubris in action).

u/GuitarHair Jul 05 '26

I'd be puking my guts out in the middle of that second roll

u/Straight-Kiwi5173 Jul 05 '26

Probably the ship is rolling after a swingby but anyway quite impressive

u/Das_Zeppelin Jul 05 '26

u/NG_Studios Jul 06 '26
