Apparently the temporary Captain lost all engines due to a wave crashing through the bridge and flooding out the electronics, causing a short and power shutdown, but eventually they got 1 engine restarted (they normally have 3) and wallowed about during this video.



Reduced forward speed into waves at an angle can induce a response called Parametric Rolling

How big do the waves have to be when they are coming over the bow of a ship that size? Yikes! Wild ride!
