For centuries, sailors told tales of gigantic waves that they encountered at sea, and for centuries, scientists didn’t believe them. 

However, over time, evidence began to pile up, which suggested that the legends of these freak waves were, in fact, true. 

These waves are rare, still not well understood, and terrifying to ships and sailors because there is almost no way to detect or predict where or when they will occur. 

Learn more about rogue waves, how they were discovered, and how they occur on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
