Tidal Surge, Sunderland, UK 13/01/17 

Outstanding footage folks, well done.

Great video of my home town coastline, me and my lad's love to fish off the pier when we get up to sunderland, it's the best clip iv'e seen on here where the weather and sea are at their worst, Thanks for posting Mrs Doyle.

Used to love gan down Hendon beach on stormy days. Me and me mates used to play some crazy games with rough sea. Dint knar how am not here and me and mates had some close calls. Unfortunately I lost me dog Shep down there in 80s during a storm. Found his body on Seaham beach 2 days later covered in crabs. I was only a kid and Shep was me best mate. I cried for weeks and ended up very depressed. RIP Shep lad, CYa again one day am sure.

Brilliant. Thank you.

Just found this video. Fabulous, watching the power of the sea is mesmerising.

Just a normal summers day in Sunland. Surprisingly no-one swimming at roker or fishing on the pier gates must be locked

Great video, the sea is such a beautiful but dangerous thing

Great video mesmerising well done 👍🏻🙂

Really beautiful 🤩

This absolutely spellbinding to me.

well taken vid Joan, right place right time.

Back in the 70s when I went to Fulwell girls school I used to ge the bus down there and the waves used to be over the road past the roundabout right near Seaburn hotel

Scary but beautiful!

The "watta" seems to be a bit more civilised just down the coast here in Hartlepool.

Ohhhh boy I love rough sea ,me and my friends went on a dance to France 🇫🇷 in a force 9/10 gale was blowing the ship was up and down, my friend was seasick i just loved it ❤

Hope the fishing is going well Mrs Doyle Some tremendous footage and great views of the wave action Safe filming positions too Respect

Maravilhoso esse vídeo 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Awesome that. I live in Sunderland but never seen it as rough as that. Beautiful

Used with worse up here in Shetland

I was there for the whole day, couldn't leave. Damn we need this again!

power of the sea is not to be messed with .

Great footage

Great scary footage! I wonder what's the feeling of falling in there. Must really suck. A frightening cold and violent death. I'd never have guessed there were people in those cars. For me those were unfortunate empty parked cars that had been caught by the bad weather and their owners weren't able to come forward and drive them away from that nightmare of a place.

Good Stuff!!!!

Now i understand why they close the pier gates to fisherman!!! Not a chance when one of those waves comes over the top.

That was so cool

Forget your surf-board? LOL! Yeah, it was windy as fuck in South Shields too! It was freezing yesterday, why were you out? I like that you recorded at various places! Thanx for this video! :)

Such beautiful shorelines - amazing they build stuff so close to the sea. Seems so dangerous to me. In the section titled Hendon they have a huge storage tank or silo so close to potential danger its amazing its still there. I can't imagine this would be allowed now.

I seen 8t a lot worse when waves are smashing the pier and you can't see the light house because the waves are higher

5.12 to 5.35. Awesome

Always like this in the winter month down Seaburn. Lovely to watch but wouldn't be that fucking close

that was canny good like

The North Sea can be very wild I see. Great filming though. I feel like I'm right there.

Stuwid STUWID what line is that

On a nice day can you walk out to that lighthouse? Does Sunderland experience very high tidal changes compared to the rest of the UK?

Where is the place? I want to visit when it winter time

Ok bthis is the north Atlantic?? Just as impressive as the Pacific 🌉🌎🌍💖🌹

Eejits need to realise a cubic metre of water weighs a metric tonne and that's before it starts moving.

Who is the idiot with the dog on a leash? Animal endangerment!!

Dumb people for getting there car's in that salt water.😬😠👿😈
