That's kinda how I managed to get an A on a project of the Lumber River Basin in North Carolina for a science class when I accidentally missed a few of the requirements for the project. I put Randy Jackson in every single Powerpoint slide, some hidden, some obvious. The teacher gave me a 93 (lowest score for an A) because putting all the Randy Jacksons in the project made the whole class intrigued and actually paid attention to my whole presentation, something the other students weren't able to do. Not only did I gain some new perspective towards life, but I also learned that the Lumber River Basin in NC is the only place where the Venus Fly Trap frows naturally (Which I certainly had one eating Randy Jackson in my project lol)

I almost scrolled past this video. Glad I didn't. I'm a merchant mariner and I generally sail on container ships. This is a subject that I personally have experienced. Theses waves aren't always huge, you'll see them even in only mild rough seas. It's always noticable from the bridge when a wave 3 times the size of all the other waves hits your ship. I f the sea state is consistant for more than an hour or so, you get used to the motion of the ship. This makes any unsusal wave action very noticable. Most of the time it's not scary, but you notice when the ship has been gently rolling and then all of the sudden a wave jars that motion. It's all the same phenomenon, but becuse of it's multiplicative nature, it can easily get scary if you're already in 25-30 foot swells. I think part of why this wasn't accepted in modern science for so long was because we sailors love to embelish our stories. So when we told stories of monster waves in the middle of the ocean, no one believed us. Even if we were telling the truth. I'm probably rambling at this point... anyways, sick video. I'm glad yall landlubbers are able to learn about this interesting natral phenomenon.

"Under the Wave off Kanagawa" wasn't a painting, it was a blockwood print. That's pretty awesome because while paintings are unique and expensive, prints are "mass production" art for the masses, or the middle, merchant class who can afford it. Other than the usual force of nature interpretation, the fact that Hokusai used Prussian Blue for the colour, influenced by Western art use of perspective, led to a more nuance interpretation of the work, that calm sea and Mt Fuji on the right represent the old Japan society, culture and structure, and the force of nature represented by the great wave is the incoming great changes, probably alluding to Westernisation and Western influence.

I remember visiting Maui for a vacation... It was nighttime and everything seemed calm, I sat next to a cliff to enjoy the ocean sounds and meditated. It was about 25 ft down from to cliff to shore, I don't know how long I was there but I remember thinking to myself, "I'll be fine here, the waves can't get to me" being focused in a zen like state I lost track of time and what pulled me out of it was getting drenched in water and literally pulled down from my sitting position. A wave somehow shot up and got me entirely soaked. I even remember checking the rock to see if it was dry first before sitting... That was my first taste of the ocean and another reminder of how nature doesn't play around.

Rogue waves were one of my favorite things about Assassin's Creed IV, Assassin's Creed III, and (aptly named in this case) Assassin's Creed Rogue's sailing missions. The absolute scale of these waves is astonishing, especially the way it looks like you are being sucked into some dark void or hole when your ship begins to go down from them. The ocean is probably one of the most horrifying things I can think of, to the point that I would be hesitant to go any further than waist-deep into it even on a boat. Yet at the same time, I, like many others you mentioned in the video, am drawn to its beauty. Nothing beats a day at the beach. I cannot wait to see what topic you tackle next, Mr. Lemon!

There's a reason I have NEVER been a fan of environmentalists who advocate for people to stop using planes for international travel and to instead use boats- because airplanes are THE SAFEST WAY TO TRAVEL, PERIOD. Sure, travel on a ship is still way safer than driving a car, but _still_ too dangerous compared to air travel. Like, do you know how much carbon a human being is worth, environmentally and economically speaking? A *lot*. A single human being is, in fact, worth MORE carbon than said human being will be responsible for producing of their own volition, simply due to the economic activity required to support said human. Like, big oil and coal money lobbying to be allowed to continue to pollute the air with their shitty non-renewable energy sources is a crime, but ANY unnecessary loss of human life is an ATROCITY in environmental terms. Plus, in the event that there's some sort of emergency on a boat, any normie with no maritime experience will INSTANTLY become a total liability. I'm fine with maritime TRADE because those guys are all professionals, and they know how to conduct themselves in emergencies, but trying to evacuate ordinary civilians?

@@justaguyonyoutube4592 I think he talks about how it doesn't try to scare people and cause deadly panic with big beeping scaring soundwaves and red screens, instead calmly pointing out the coming danger and procedures to be safe.

Emp will never cease to amazes me in his ability to make me watch videos I would never want to click on and assume i couldn't possibly give less of a damn about, only to be completely enthralled and walk away with a new fascination and appreciation for something I couldn't have ever imagined even thinking about prior. He just keeps getting nicer with it

@Merucry Poison bro he's like 26 or 27 now, in 2016 he was like 19 or 20 and the entirety of youtube culture was edgy. How you still trying to be edgy 7+ years later, look around man, Leafy is gone, Idubbbz has denounced anything related to being edgy, Filthy Frank is gone, that stuff just isn't allowed anymore and this was Emp's dream, to do youtube, FOREVER, if he chose to act like a kid again just to make jokes that are 7+ years old he loses his entire life's work. Nah bro, chill on that.

Yeah, it’s so watchable, waiting 10 minutes for him to even get to the subject at hand…..

I fawn over these videos every time they’re released. So informative, well written, and engaging. He needs to seriously consider writing a book of essays. The visual element offered on a video platform is nice but I’d happily wait 4 years of radio silence from this channel only for him to drop a book release of all the essays he’s been curating in the meantime.

Really cool video!, I've spent all my life close to the sea, it's a beast of it's own and you've made it justice

Finally found someone who can satisfy my thirst for knowledge of both Nascar and Rogue Waves at the same time. Love from Ireland.

Never heard of this channel but now I’m obsessed 🤣 love the vid!

That was an awesome video. Informative but not overly technical. Well done!

This channel is the ultimate gateway into attaining interests and knowledge I would otherwise have gone my whole life without, and I treasure it for that. Great work as always Emp.

Learned about this in my oceanography class a few semesters ago and I am even more interested in the ocean's mysteries. Something about the sea is so terrifying yet intriguing. It is macabre. Yet it is the origin of life itself. Rogue waves are scary but there is also red tides which I find to be equally scary. Red tides, scientifically known as harmful algal blooms, are when the ocean itself seems red like blood. They occur when algae blooms and they produce toxins which kill organisms in not only the consumption of water, but also if you breathe close to it. The blood red ocean becomes deadly to those who are exposed. HABs have become more common due to climate change, although not all algal blooms are dangerous.

I love your video. It was fun to watch and very interesting:) thank you!!

Rogue waves don't have to be large to be rogue waves. A rogue wave is any wave that is significantly larger than the prevailing seastate. They might be far more common than this video makes them out to be, it's just that a lot of the time they aren't noticed because they are comparatively small next to the ships we use today.

2:32 Woah, did Emplemon just casually stick Geowizard's theme inside his documentary? That's sick! Very cool musical choice 👍👍

YES! I was already into vaporwave before getting deep into Emp’s content, and hearing him use it in his stuff has lead me to discovering more goodies from within the genre! It’s great!

cool video man, I've spent a lot of time living on the coasts so this was interesting to watch

Remembered while watching this that I first knew you from YTP's and now you are one of my favorite documentary channels.

Another amazingly crafted video essay. You've come a long way, the basic polish on this video alone is enough to keep ones attention. Your music choices and timing are fantastic, and your pacing is great as well. Much love Emp

I've been fascinated by these for quite a long time now. Well done Emp.

The way it loops back to the beginning at the end. Truly masterful.

One of your best videos yet!

I just spent 14 days at sea for work, I'm glad this video released AFTER I got home....

Always a great video and a joy to watch. Thanks for the vid Emp!

Emp, I have been watching you for around 2 years, and your content has just been getting better and better. It is truly amazing what you have accomplished with your channel, I remember when you had like 800k subs a few years ago and watching all your videos over and over for a month when I was working a shit job at 16, now I'm 18 and are watching you at a shit job lmao

Enjoyed to a great extend! Thank you!

Man I love this channel. Emp continuously produces some of the most creative video ideas, always well researched and insightful.

Great video as always Emp! I am currently studying my masters in laser physics and lately we discussed the soliton, which is basically a type of wave which maintains its shape during propagation through fx. an optical fiber. If you were to successfully utilize such waves for data transmission, you would be able to drastically increase transmission speeds in a wide array of optical communication systems, and it is already utilized in many applications. And interestingly enough - and this is not my area of expertise so don't hold me to it! - I believe that one of the leading theories as to what causes these rouge waves, is the random creation of a such solitons (Peregrine solitons to be more specific, if I am not mistaken) in ocean waters. Anyways, I just found it fascinating that a waveform which can cause so much destruction is also lending itself helpfull in many modern applications - and maybe many more to come! Hope you have a nice day :)

Another masterful video. I love this channel so much. I always feel like you're guiding me through the meaning of the world, even if you don't fully know the answers. It's calm, but always honest and uncertain. Like it's a friendly warning. It's almost omnipotent, but not in a pretentious way.

Almost like the sea itself 😯

The music just slaps everytime thank you emp ur gonna be a nostalgic period in my life

I studied rogue waves briefly They are interesting and happen in optics too

I worked at sea for a couple of years as a cadet on oil tankers. Have seen my fair share of waves that would wash violently on deck. Back then, I was dumb enough to go to the bow of the ship with a camera to record myself getting hit as a wave washed in during heavy weather. Needless to say, it was one of the dumbest things I've done. Fortunately, the one that hit me wasn't all that big, but it did knock me down to my knees which forced me to head back and not tempt fate again. This isn't even the worst near death encounter I remember. The other one is so bad that I sometimes feel like I can see the alternate reality where things didn't go as well, where I'd likely have been lost at sea... But that's a story for another time.

These videos check all the boxes. You are doing truly great work Emp.

The Great Wave Of Kanagawa is also one of the top ten most famous images of all time with it being just under the Mona Lisa and the Windows XP Bliss wallpaper! :)

I was just recommended this by KZread and subscribed great video👍

The format of this video felt like watching a video version of a scientific, published article on rogue waves. There's even related works and everything. Great stuff!

Rogue waves so often come at the ship from angles other than the prevailing sea, they hole the ship by sheer force of impact, such a massive hole is hard to survive. It's been a subject of interest for me for a year or so so it was a real pleasure to see one of my favourite creators cover the topic!

i love all ur videos but this on "there may Never Ever be another man as powerful as Stanislav Petrov" i legit love that video i wish u could go to never ever videos cause you do such an amazzing job at layering your information its truly beautiful. Thank you for amazing making such amazing videos. you truly help me learn every video you make

Shout outs to the hair cuts for men song at the end, Truely an amazing artist with an amazingly endless catalog. I'm so happy to hear and see that others appreciate their work and hope that their exclusion at the end of the video with spark some new fans and new interest ❤

This might be one of your best videos! Didnt expect I would be this interested in the history of the ocean and rogue waves.

Loved the video emp and I hate to be that guy but the art at 13:22 is not the Lusitania, it’s early concept art of her that is not indicative of her final appearance in 1910. Still loved the topic though. The Poseidon adventure is one of my favorite films and it was inspired by a rouge wave incident onboard the RMS Queen Mary.

Emp lemon could make a video about anything and I would be completely entertained while watching it

thanks for another good one always a pleasure

I have been obsessed with this topic for years, I’m so happy you’re covering it

Love how you post in a way that when I see it, I'm actually hyped.

Dude I love your channel.

I saw you on the MDE party stream and now I'm here learning amazing things.

Currently taking Art History and I love all the paintings you used, it was really fun recognizing each one that you showed

God bless you for your genuinely entertaining and informative content. Your level of research and delivery of info has only gotten better throughout the years, and your unpredictability in regards to what you'd make content about makes you an even more special content creator when compared to most others in your space. Thank you.

Damn it man, your content is so addicting

We just learned about rouge waves in my marine bio class so the timing couldn’t have been more crazy😂

If I ever become a teacher in the future, I will definitely use some of Emplemon’s documentaries as lessons for my students. These videos are incredible. Keep up the great work man.
