How High Are The Most Insane Rogue Waves in Lake Superior's History | Fall Asleep To

"Anderson, this is the Fitzgerald. How are you making out?" — "We are holding our own." These were the final words ever recorded from the SS Edmund Fitzgerald before 729 feet of steel and 29 men vanished into a freshwater abyss. Tonight, we aren't just telling a story; we are investigating the physics of impossibility. How does a landlocked lake generate waves that rival the North Atlantic? Why do mariners refuse to call this a lake, choosing instead to call it an ocean? From the legendary "Three Sisters" that hunt ships in packs to the terrifying "Purple Bullseye" of 2017—where walls of water as tall as a six-story building appeared every eight seconds—we dive into the science of Lake Superior's deadliest moods. But the most haunting mystery lies at the bottom. At a constant 39°F, Lake Superior becomes a chemical laboratory that "never gives up her dead." We explore the chilling science of saponification (Grave Wax) and the legend of "Old Whitey," the sailor who has remained at his post in the engine room for 97 years, floating, waiting, and watching. In this video, we will discover: 🌊 The 2.5% Lethal Difference: Why freshwater waves are steeper, sharper, and more punishing than the sea. 🚢 The 260-Ton Fist: The brutal math of "green water" and why ships simply "drive under." 👹 Mishibeshu: The ancient Ojibwe warnings of the "Underwater Panther" that science is only now confirming. 🗼 Stannard Rock: The loneliest place in America, where waves have been reported topping 100 feet. Lake Superior does not negotiate. It is a permanent question mark where the gap between what we know and what the lake can do is where the insanity lives.
