A massive 'water tornado' swirling above the sea was captured in dramatic footage by two brave sailors - as it headed straight towards their ship.
Ewen MacKenzie, 37, and Barry Stevenson 31, were on board a vessel in Egyptian waters when the amazing natural spectacle appeared.
In just a few minutes the clear blue sky changed rapidly as dark clouds formed and a funnel-cloud swirled in front of them.
The phenomenon is known as a waterspout – a tornado-like column of spinning air which forms usually over large lakes or seawater.
