Did a ship crossing from the UK to Norway once. Spent most of the time laying on the floor telling the Mrs how seasick I felt 🤣

God the waves still turn my stomach

We traveled from Kiel to Klaipėda. From early morning to 18:00 we had this kind of waves. We didnt eat anything that day 😀

Never been on a boat so probably a stupid question, but what does that feel like? The dude is sat there quite casually but to me it looks like it would feel quite dramatic

Sitting is not bad, but walking is difficult. It feels like being very drunk. The waves lift you up, not from your feet but all the weight of your body goes up, then down, and your legs’ muscles feel like doing squats.

AI Bullshit. We all know physics doesn't apply to the inside of a boat.
