I'm going to hazard a guess here.
In the video, the ship is side-on to the wind and the waves, meaning its more at risk of capsizing than if it was facing head-on. I'm guessing this kind of thing is illegal on large vessels or passenger ships due to the increased risk of everyone dying.
Remember the victims of the last major capsizing. They never did recover all the bodies from the Poseidon.
