Omg ! Im Norwegian born and saw her many times absolutely amazing effort that she was ever built , Sadly i do not have any pix of her She was just collessel on every scale no matter what angle you looked at her from , Been trying for more than 12 months to find anything on her & stumbled across this video by complete accident ,couldn't believe it until i saw and watched the video i didnt even know she had been scrapped i was guttered 10 yrs later i found out how she met her fate by complete accident , sadly she was only a single hull nowadays all tankers have to be dbl hulled for environmental purposes and in case of running aground but considering the JAHRE VIKING was in any language one of the last mega structures to be built. Thanks so much for posting this ' Tribute' of her now in my favorites collection .

I had the memorable experience of loading from this tanker when it was known as Seawise Giant. My vessel was London Glory, a mere 140,000ddwt. She looked like any other tanker from a distance but as we got closer it just got bigger. Dwarfed us as we lay alongside her stbd side. That was offshore Mexico, late '70s or 'early '80s.

So quit being selfish and critical when we know you're not. You are here making comments aren't you? So Sid you're a fraud!
