00:02 - In the beginning, the world was all wet.

00:26 Today, it is still four fifths wet.

00:30 Man, the nomad, in the course of his migrations

00:36 often encountered bodies of water too wide

00:40 or too deep to be crossed.

00:43 Always the thinker, man soon evolved

00:49 the most primitive form of aquatic transportation, a log.

00:54 (upbeat music)

00:56 Supported by the log or seated upon it,

01:01 the next question was one of propulsion.

01:03 First, the foot, then the hand, and then,

01:08 aha, the first marine invention, the paddle.

01:13 (upbeat music)

01:16 From the paddle, the logical development was the oar,

01:21 which employed the simple mechanics of the lever

01:24 and fulcrum, producing maximum power

01:27 with a minimum of effort.

01:29 Because of the limitless, uncharted expanse of water,

01:37 the ancient mariner oftentimes found himself

01:40 far, far out at sea with only the stars to guide him.

01:45 - Star light, star bright,

01:49 I sure wish I knew where I was tonight.

01:52 (upbeat music)

01:56 - Swiftly and surely, the stars steered him on

02:01 (thunder rumbling)

02:02 to his destination.

02:03 In the 13th century, even as today,

02:10 great thinkers worried about what shape the world was in.

02:15 Some great minds firmly believed

02:17 that if you sailed west far enough,

02:19 you would sail off the edge of the world.

02:27 From the earliest days, sailors were played upon by pirates.

02:44 In those romantic days,

02:46 ships often changed captains very suddenly.

02:49 This colorful ceremony was called

02:52 rocking the plank or feeding the sharks.

02:55 (bells ringing)

02:58 - Eight bells, come and get it.

03:01 (thunder rumbling)

03:09 - When old father Neptune went on the rampage,

03:12 (bells ringing)

03:15 for safety's sake, sailors would latch themselves

03:26 to the mast.

03:27 Thus, the sailor was able to stick to his post

03:33 through hail and high water.

03:35 The flag is the sign language of the sea.

03:41 Sailors could communicate with each other

03:44 by semaphoring and wig wagging.

03:47 A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M,

03:52 and O, P, Q, R, (mumbling)

03:57 Oops!

03:58 He wigged what he should have wagged.

04:09 The happy, carefree sailor expressed himself

04:12 with a horn pipe, traditional dance of the sea.

04:15 Hauling in rope, hoisting sail,

04:19 rowing,

04:23 lookout.

04:27 Lookout!

04:32 (screaming)

04:38 Ah, the clipper ship.

04:41 The queen of the seven seas,

04:44 the heyday of sail,

04:47 iron man.

04:48 Wooden ships.

04:52 Through centuries of practice,

04:56 the sailor has developed a perfect set of sea legs.

05:06 A sailor is easily recognized by his wand.

05:09 Oh, knots.

05:12 Who should know how to tie knots better than the sailor?

05:16 He invented them.

05:17 The square knot, the sheep shank,

05:20 the granny knot,

05:23 a very interesting knot, bears great strength.

05:28 The slip knot.

05:32 Now, the barrel knot, most slip-proof of all.

05:36 (clattering)

05:38 Take it away!

05:39 This explains why sailors are often called old tars.

05:47 And now, through trial and error,

05:53 the sailor has at last mastered the sea.

05:56 A far cry indeed from his early ancestors

05:59 to the modern scientific mariner of today.

06:02 (upbeat music)

06:05 All hands, man battle stations,

06:12 stand by to attack.

06:14 Hey, stand by to attack!

06:16 Ready?

06:21 Aim.

06:26 Fire!
