How to board a ship at sea [📹 abidch760]

Fun Fact: Superstition is a big deal amongst sailors and seafarers. Cats are thought to bring good luck. British and Irish sailors would often adopt a black cat, which might sound counterintuitive as in some cultures a black cat is considered an evil omen. However, there is some logic to it as cats hunt down and get rid of rodents, who usually live on ships and might chew on ropes or eat food. This practice was even adopted by Vikings in Northern Germany between the 8th and 11th centuries. What a cool clip, thanks for sharing @Rainmaker1973 (Image:

Some things just ought to be easier than they really are.

I used to work as an engineering on board. The pilot fell into the water once…..

It's a good thing they brought a lot of spare tires.

Gosh, you wouldn't want to accidentally slip and get pinned between one of the tyres and the ship.

I remember my uncles working in the engine room and I would go and visit. One of my highlights, seeing the power of a ship engine and trying to board the ship 😆 I was like 7 years old lmfao fk I have done some interesting sht 😅
