How fishermen on a tiny archipelago between Iceland and Scotland take to the open ocean as waves rise as high as a five-story building and meteorologists warn of one of the North Atlantic's fiercest storms. Behind the apparent recklessness lies a thousand years of engineering, the physics of rogue waves and a very sober calculation that almost no one is aware of.
