Editors note:
These are images that no one wants to see. How can people take such a risk and behave so unprofessionally? Purely a matter of luck whether you come home again in the evening!
The video was uploaded to YouTube yesterday. Unfortunately, my language skills are not sufficient to determine the location and the date of recording.

Probably this was not a pilot. In any case, I hope so...
And the ladder arrangement was non-compliant.

I was able to capture this one on my last cruise leaving out of Port Canaveral... watch as the pilot jumps from the cruise ship to the pilot boat while both are moving! :)
