Huge Waves Crash Against Swaying Oil Rig


Warning: This video could make you seasick...Huge waves crash against a swaying oil rig, as a severe storm which swept across parts of Scotland hits the North Sea.

The footage of the Borgholm Dolphin installation was captured at the weekend by James Eaton, an offshore worker on the nearby Lomond Platform, around 145 miles east of Aberdeen.

When I watch the sea like this is one of the few times you realise how tiny we are and how huge and awesome God and nature is. Wow.

Chris Francois Fact is the sea didn't make itself. And just like we give honour to the artist for the picture not the picture itself here we gave honour to the creator rather than the created. It is the difference between God fearing people and pagans.

Pirates have tried to invade a ship, look what happened!

Pirates have tried to invade a ship, look what happened! A small band of Somali pirates attempt to seize an unidentified ship during a raid. Bad idea. The ship turns out to be a U.S. Naval vessel. Watch what happens. Piracy in international waters is down in recent years, as governments and private shipping have gotten wise to the tactics of the raiders of the high seas. Pirates are finding increased patrols, harder targets, and tougher reprisals ( like this ), which has resulted in far fewer hijackings, according to statistics from the International Chamber of Commerce. This is a good thing, of course. But it also means we're going to see far fewer of these highly entertaining videos. Watch what happens when these tough guys see that they are not raiding a helpless commercial vessel but one owned and operated by the U.S. Navy. It's what you call a classic "oh sh*t" moment.

What's the difference between a cruiser, a destroyer, a frigate, and a littoral combat ship?

This is meant to be a general overview of each of these ships and their capabilities, not looking at specific information such as size and armament (which can easily be found online, if you want specific facts about each ship).  Littoral Combat Ship (LCS):  One of the newest types of ships, made up of the Freedom and Independence Classes with only 3 ships in service. LCS's are very small, versatile ships that were created with the aim of extending the Navy's capabilities closer to the shore. LCS's are made to operate in shallower water than most USN platforms and have different modules that can be swapped in and out depending on the mission requirements.  Cruiser (CG):  Cruisers are now becoming less and less relevant, with only 22 left in the Ticonderoga-Class. Their main focus is to provide the Navy with a multi-functional guided missile platform (launching weapons systems such as the Tomahawk and other missiles via the ship's vertical launching system ...
