      These giant waves must be formed quickly by unusual circumstances that also
      dissapate them just as quickly or else we would see them all over. Note
      that giant "holes" have been reported as well from time to time by ships.

      One possibility is that the snapshot of the "waves" actually shows the
      moment when two or more wave trains coincide, producing a monster that
      breaks into its original trains a moment or two later.
