(CNN) -- It's like a stunt from the latest James Bond movie, only this isn't a movie.

Adorned in a designer suit and sunglasses, a sailor sprints up the 30-meter mast of a boat as it plows ahead at a 60-degree angle.

Holy Moly.

In the first place, just being on that boat as it heels over 60* would be quite enough of a thrill for me.

22* is the worst that I encountered on a ship and It's not any fun. A large ship doesn't just flop back from a list like that, they gradually right themselves if they do come back at all. We were very lucky and I like to think the crew did a fine job of reacting with engines and rudder to right her.
