Perilous conditions
Footage of Storm Otto's enormous waves

Privacy Policy

Stomach-churning footage shows a fishing vessel being thrown around in huge waves as a result of Storm Otto.

On Friday 17th February, fisherman were working out in the North Sea as Otto whipped up quite the storm. Their sea boat managed to safely navigate through the rough waters.

Both videos were filmed 60 miles off the west coast of Norway, by fisherman John A Buchan. Storm Otto impacted northern parts of the UK with 70-80 mph winds, before barrelling towards Denmark.
