1. What a horror this video!
   I am seaman retired and i NEVER saw a drunken sailor. I saw it only on Hollywood movies.

2. I LOVE YOU

3. Good video thanks 👍

4. Aww, from your workload it sounds like The Creepster will be AWOL again for Halloween.

5. A friend of mine was at the helm of a very heavy, steel hulled gaff rigged beast of a ship in 30kts. We'll within the capability of the ship. Whistling to pass her watch, the English captain owner pops his head out of the companionway and says, "Oi! That's quite enough wind, thank you!"

6. Glad to see a new upload. I do not work with ships, but find your videos very entertaining and informative. Fair winds and following seas!

7. I was told that it was not allowed. I was a US Marine and the sailors always told us it was banned while on board

8. Thanks for sharing this superstition! I noticed that you pronounced Fletcher Christian’s surname as Christiansen. Was this an error, or do you have information that indicates the longer surname?

9. Welcome back salior

10. Glad to see you back, captain

11. Good to see you back, captain 🫡

12. HE'S BACK!!!

13. It would be nice if you did a vid about different sailor's superstitions 😏😎🌹⚓

14. Monty pythons can't sail? 😂

15. the royal navy banned whistling to because it signaled the start of a mutiny? they do realise that the people starting a mutiny won't care? i mean at that point whistling is probably the least of the rules they are breaking.

16. He's alive!

17. YAY! The Skipper is back!

18. Thanks for the upload. I'm glad to hear that you're doing well, and I'm looking forward to future uploads.

19. And that is why they sang instead

20. God bless you and your work sir 😇

21. Make a video about The Demeter

22. This superstition carried over to another profession where workers are high in the rigging working with ropes and weights- the theatre! Whistling in the theatre is bad luck too, and often associated with falls or items being dropped from the rafters.

23. 6 months away just to come back for a 3 min video 🙁

24. As someone who whistles Christmas carols year-round, I would be doubly unwelcome on board a ship!

25. Dude, we've missed you

26. YIPEEEE NEW MH UPLOAD YES

27. Maritime Dude is back!! 😁

28. Great lakes, isnt it?

29. Whistle up a wind. Good luck !

30. Whistling makes the wind blow. And brings the skin walker. And add to that, I´m a woman, so my whistling makes the Lady Mary cry 😁To think that I learned whistling from my mother, and my former navy lieutenant father used to call us kids by whisting a special tune.

31. As a casino dealer, I've been trying to establish a similar superstition on poker tables. "Don't you know it's bad luck to whistle on a poker table?". Because it's annoying. Got a song in your head? Keep it there!

32. Glad to see you back, sir!

33. I was aboard a cruise ship in 2013. I whistled to my wife to get her attention. She was rught next to me, so it was a pretty soft quiet whistle. The Captain was within a few feet if me as well. He quite sternly, but still somewhat politely told me to never whistle aboard a ship.
    The ship was the Carnival Triumph. The next week the poop cruise happened. (which my cousin was actually on). Just don't let anyone know it was me and my whistling that caused it.

34. Thanks for inspiring me to join the coast guard

35. Do you have a podcast and if you don't you should make one

36. I'd assume its because hearing someone whistle is really annoying, I'd tell people anything if made them stfu!

37. As someone who is still in school and plans to become a sailor I love this series and cannot wait for more.

38. I have a fascinating addendum to this. I went to (and still am) in school for theater. Theater practitioners are notorious for their superstitions (Don't say Macbeth in a theater, don't walk under a ladder, etc) but one of those was also "Do not whistle on stage." I was taught that this stemmed from the early days of theater. Early stage hands in the more modern and complex theaters were sailors in port. The rigging and fly lines were run by these sailors, particularly due to their knowledge and skills at rigging on ships, and as such, they would use whistles commands to adjust the rigging accordingly. Whistling was forbidden outside of this context for fear that a whistle could cause a piece of scenery to suddenly, and dangerously, change.

39. I have a theory that it was one guy using a storm to get an annoying crew member to be quiet

40. If you whistle on your ship and nothing happens, does that mean it was just that: a legend? I’m thinking that some of these legends were created to get men to behave while at sea 🤷‍♂️

41. Looking forward to your upcoming content!

42. I have a sorta funny story on bad luck and whisling, but it happened on land. I have this aunt and she is the greatest sweet heart of a person, really unique wholesome human being, but she also has a lot of phobias and one of them is people whistling close to her.
    One day she was at a grocery store in a line waiting when a man behing here started cheerfully whistling a song. That made her gradually more unconfortable until she blew up. In tears she turns to the man and screams "YOU NEVER DO THAT AGAIN". People around tought the guy was abusing or harasing her in some manner, so our innocent whistler had to flee the store under the menace of being linched. Meanwhie she is totally nevous unable to speak and explain the situation, what makes her even more nervous and unable to speak.
    It took quite a while for her to calm down and explain the situation to the mob trying to protect her.
    In the end everything turned alright but our casual whistler is still on the lose and nobody was able to apologise to him.

43. Well you know, WhistlinDiesel does have a lot of hardware breaking down…
