An unbelievable video taken from a helicopter showing a massive cruise ship being tossed around.
The ship is M/V Voyager in cyclone Valentina. She lost power due to a huge wave braking into her bridge and disabling the electrical systems, including all four engines. There were 474 passengers plus 313 crew on board throughout the incident. The ship and its passengers both made it to port safely.

Not necessarily big waves due to weather, but here is my absolute favorite video of an idiotic captain risking his crew's life due to a big wave. Never send you crew forward in any sort of high sea conditions unless it is an emergency!
The good bit is at the very end of the clip.
