I viewed the clip as well. Very interesting. I have a BBC2 `Horizon` programme at home, which I recorded on 14th November 2002, entitled `Freak Wave`. Much of it was about those giant iron ore carrying ships amonst other`s, disappearing all of a sudden with total loss of life. The same has happened with oil drilling platform`s out at sea. A main theory put forward is the freak wave, which is too much to go through on here, but basically, the ship ride`s the wave, then drop`s down and is clobbered by another giant wave, engulfing the whole vessel. A very interesting documentary if you ever get the chance to see it. Don`t know if they do repeat them.
