TOP 10 BARCOS AZOTADOS POR OLAS MONSTRUOSAS

For a long time, sailors' stories have told of how vessels are overcome by the fury of the sea and shipwrecked in the middle of the ocean. These are not simple stories, and today we see waves powerful and monstrous enough to break a ship in half. Merchant and cruise ship navigation faces a range of meteorological hazards, among which swells stand out, not only for their spectacular nature but also for their seasickness on some passengers. Another cause of giant waves is earthquakes. The waves generated by this mechanism are called tsunamis, and while their impact on navigation on the high seas is usually nil, because the height of these waves in the open sea is not very noticeable, their impact on the coasts is devastating, as they gain considerable heights once the tsunami reaches a shallow seabed and transforms its kinetic and potential energy into height.
