A lot of people wouldn't think this would happen but it's true. In rough seas on a carrier you can be forward on the second deck and feel some or even fairly heavy listing port and starboard. But if you went down into number one pumproom on the 6th deck {the most forward space and lowest deck accessible} to work sometimes you had to tie yourself off it would be so intense. My shop had a pump down there for the A/C system.
We took one hard list while I was climbing up number two pump room trunk about 20 frames aft of that which threw me off the ladder. This was a straight vertical ladder not the inclined with steps with rails. I got lucky because the safety nets were there. I fell about a deck. Just hurt my pride LOL.
Damn! Thank the Lord for safety nets...hehe!
