Huge swell of water crashes into Sydney ferry

This is the terrifying moment a huge swell of water crashed into a ferry – and it caught on camera by a deckhand.

Fast-fingered Haig Gilchrist was working on the Manly ferry in Sydney Harbour, Australia, when a massive wave threatened to swamp the boat.
The deckhand and amateur photographer managed to capture the precise moment the wave rose up to meet the ferry.

The image, posted on his Instagram page, has been shared across the internet.
