Massive waves off the coast of Cape Cornwall 

I like the background music. Eerie.

Same here! 😂

Yah the music is completely unnecessary. The picture is enormous enough.

😂😂😂

😣😃4 real though😣😥

Im from St Just ive seen them before from time to time.

Never underestimate the power of nature.

Yeah those are giant waves. Like mid ocean waves. That must be an island? I don’t know the area. Surprised there were no surfers there. Virgin waves.

Those were cute mid waves. I’d like to surf those and then chase some real ones 🌊…

@@-live8659 be careful. Ocean can devour you.

Sound like a "3 sisters", i.e. 3 rouge waves in succession, one larger than the next.

@@charonstyxferryman Yeah could be 👍

Wild 🌊🌊🌊

I keep the odds in my favour by staying inland. 🤣

And the wives wait with their families for the fishermen to return safely.

You can , you get used to it.

ikr, absolutely insane 🙉

I just said the same thing to myself. That was eipc...from a distance

И люди рядом с домом стоят 😢

@@ЛюбовьЮркова-е5п это безумно 😳

Or judging by the scaffolding - mending the roof! 😧

I’d be standing at the window with a life vest on!

Nope

She's cruel

@Izzyyoutcast. I had exactly the same thought, wonderful :)

So, slow down the video to about 30%, then add some atmospheric music. Seems like the film editor was in charge. Was somewhat expecting some "news reporting," rather than click-bait.

Nature is in change all the time

神主宰一切

Ain’t that the truth my friend 👍🏻

And she is not pleased, really fed up and worn out, over it.

Doing the Lord's work. Many thanks

The speed they're going is the speed they're going.

​@@robertkennedy1398 Yes, and that one bird learned how to fly in slow motion.

@@djzktym Lmao!

Yeah that’s huge. Funny , I too was in 60 foot seas in the gulf of Alaska (blowing 80-90) out of Adak. Was about 95 if I remember correctly. Crabber FV/Storfjiord

Mad …!

what kind of vessel were you in?

A 200’ mud boat converted into a salvage tug.

@@Queequeg61 well, sounds like it was up to the task. 🚣‍♂

You spelled terrifying wrong 😅 Terrifying yet beautiful. Nobody should EVER underestimate nature and what it's capable of

Spelt

@@metalmicky there was a clip of Jennifer Garner on Conan O'Brien's late night talk show, old news, but it's been recirculating... Jennifer Garner said something about "sneaked into the room..." Conan says "snuck into the room." She interrupted herself saying "sneaked into the room. Snuck isn't a word, Conan. You went to Harvard and you should know that." Long story short, he was handed a dictionary, looked through it and what do you know? Snuck is indeed a word.... My point is, don't correct me thinking I'm wrong when I'm not. You're not wrong either. Both spellings are acceptable and still mean the same thing. You can Google if you want. I'm not ashamed to admit that I double checked. I fact check myself far more often than I fact check others and I actually appreciate when someone clears up any confusion and I learn something new in the process. "You learn something new everyday and if you don't, you weren't paying attention." Yay for learning something new! Happy to help (it reads rude, but I genuinely not my intention)

Ты хорошая . Надеюсь у тебя это не прошло .

​@@rondakamakahi3772Ты зануда , как и я . Привет из Испании .

Фигасе... "Завораживающее зрелище" Я бы, как бы сказать... очень, очень сильно испугалась бы. А народ стоит, смотрит😮 Я бы давно убежала к камину пить коньяк. 😂

...along with his camera being zoomed to the max, the affect he wanted

Nope, sped up the video and they're still that big.

How did this not wipe out everything around it...looks like a freakin tsunami

Telephoto lens makes the house much smaller than it would otherwise. Its like those shots of the moon with a tiny house in the foreground making the moon look huge.

Not to mention that house is alot higher than those waves and the camera is higher than the house but still, go stand in front of those waves and those waves are massive!

I've often said that myself....a straw also helps to get a nice, even flow of water ,should you happen to pack one in your sea kit.... along with some tasty tuna and sardine sandwiches 💧💧💧💧💧🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🤣😂😁

😂😂😂

😂😂😂😂😂😂😅

Yeah, cause its frothy and bubbling. Def can't swim it.

LOLOL

They appear higher because of the camera angle 😉

Those are monster waves for sure, but no way higher than the hill. Also, that's probably a cliff there, but you can't see it because of camera position/perspective.

the slomo

It is.

so, you've never experienced heavy seas ... got it

@@gazjaz2010 That's true, but that doesn't mean that the waves in this video are as big as they look.

@@gazjaz2010 You do realize that despite the water looking taller than the house in spots, it never washes over the house???

Non riesco proprio a capire le prospettive dell' insieme.forse guardando qualche video dello stesso posto in una giornata migliore 🤔

Correct!!!!

That's the whole idea

Yes that’s what I thought….the 2aves seem higher than the roof of those h9mes but then the angle probably gives that eff3ct.

I agree, it’s probably deliberate, distorted for effect. I don’t believe any non-tsunami wave is higher than that cottage in the foreground. Storm waves get high, but not that high🙂

That is the English channel, you are chatbot

@@davepowell7168 Surely not if it's off Cornwall, the channel isn't that long.

@@davepowell7168 technically the same thing, the ‘channel’ is part of the Atlantic

At Cornwall you would freeze your ass off in the water. It's roughly the same latitude as Labrador although it is warmed somewhat by the Gulf Stream.

I love watching the surf feeds from there.

Wet chatbot rhetoric

it's literally in slow motion

​@@DaveDexterMusic😂😂😂😂😂😂

😂😂😂😅​@@DaveDexterMusic

That being said, I still think it rather foolish for those folks to have stood watching so close to the sea; it only takes one rogue wave or an exceptional gust of wind and you can find yourself in the drink with no way out and no hope of rescue.

The size of these waves are common. I’m from the Northeast of England and live right next to the coast. Waves like this are not unusual at all.

This is just our local pond with a bit of a breeze.

@@scottsando8827 🤣🤣🤣👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Oh I'm sure they are taller than a two storey 😂, the house is just closer and in a cliff

OiOi! What about Wales then? 😊

Yep, Wales is the most beautiful.

@@welshskies 👍🙂

@sea-pin it was a storm with 96 mph gusts in a place which gets decent sized waves anyway off the Atlantic. Also without a telephoto lens from this far away you wouldn’t see the waves at all. At Nazare they also use telephoto lenses

Those are not 15 foot waves.@sea-pin

⁠@sea-pin ​​⁠ this is footage of storm noa which was reported to have waves above 25ft. It was also reported that Cornwall got the worst of the storm. Super easy to google the facts.

Most likely. They also slowed down the video to make it look bigger and scarier than it is.

@sea-pin 25ft waves in the North Atlantic coming into the west coast of the UK and Ireland are not unusual at all. 40 and 50ft waves are seen during most winters. Look along the west coast of them on satellite images and maps and you'll see how rugged it is due to thousands of years of being pummelled by the north atlantic.

Play it at 2x speed

You were doing really well and then you just had to ruin it with product placement. lol

Lol the clue is in the name! And yes there is….

It’s West Cornwall, England north of Lands End near St. Just. It’s actually Cornish. I don’t think England ever seized control if it.

It's just west of St Just on the north west coast

It's creepy.😱😱

Neither did I - until I looked for it on Google Earth !

North coast, near St.Just.

It says Southern England

It's in The West Country. @@Venus20000

Cape cornwall uk? Live in england been to cornwall hundreds of times. Clueless!

So what ,,, it’s a great video 😮

So are many other fakes - it's the real ones which impress! @@juliebrill7948

Prithee, how did they do it , jetty's or break off a chunk of the continental shelf?

@@Smedley1947 Three Council meetings, and a sacrificial lamb (Brenda) 🤞🤞❤️❤️

"never"??

Pete Rose came back from retirement.

Fairly normal storm waves for this area. 20ft plus isn't unusual, I'd estimate these at 25-26ft based on the 20ft waves I went to see from this same car park location in March during Storm Nelson. A bit further South at Sennen Cove, they're even more spectacular as the car park is much closer to sea level and there is a huge rock just off the RNLI ramp that breaks the waves as they come into the cove.
