Pod of whales scares sailor into uncontrollable laughter

By
MUST WATCH: Whale pod emerges from the water in Seward, Alaska over the weekend! The video is priceless and so is the man's reaction.


That guys reaction and laugh is PRICELESS! LOL!





They are bubble net feeding. A big bunch of them circle around below the water blowing bubble which floats the little fish to the top then they open their mouths and rush to the surface gathering the little fish in their mouths the push the water out through the baleen in their mouths which keeps the fish in. Boats are required to stay 100 yards from the feeding humpback whales, however the whales are liable to surface anywhere. The circling gulls usually mark where they are feeding. They could easily upset a boat. Some surfaced close to our boat and it is quite a surprise and a great picture op if you can keeps your wits about you.

WARNING: Graphic language
SEWARD, Alaska – A whale pod gave a sailor in Alaska a surprise of a lifetime.
A man sailing along the Alaskan coast was overcome with joy when a pod of whales emerged from the ocean, just feet away from his boat.
Bradley Rich and his friend Tony Flanders were fishing off the coast of Seward, Alaska on Monday when they received a amazement of a lifetime.  About a dozen whales surfaced and nearly knocked over their boat.
“I hear them…. Oh My GOD! They’re right in front of us!” Rich screams before breaking out in uncontrollable laughter.

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. Enjoy :

Who the hells filming this!?

By
Been there, done that in a 2100 ton, 300 ft. destroyer, the USS Van Valkenburgh, DD-656, in 1952. As I tell the story, the Captain asked me, "How do we turn around in this sea? We have to come about (turn around) to get out of this typhoon." I told him, "Simple. As you ride up the 60-foot wave, put the starboard screw on all-back-full, and the port screw on all-ahead-full. Just as you reach the crest of the wave, put 'er on hard right rudder! Don't forget to put the helm amidships and both screws on full ahead when you start down the other side of the wave.  Then when the ship starts accelerating down into the trough, slow the screws down to about half power." He did that, we came smartly around 180 degrees, plowed into the wave now in front of us, steadied, and rode back out of the storm." I asked the Captain to give full credit to the helmsman and the two engine-room mates on the port and starboard throttles. He asked me how I knew...
