[Music] do you enjoy a Sunday afternoon ship spotting peering through your binoculars as a mammoth marine Vessel slowly makes its way across the Horizon well here's a treat for you and you may even discover a few ships to add to your list to be on the lookout for ships about to get real I like big boats and I cannot lie and since you're here now I guess you'll enjoy a nice shiply figure too without further silliness let's take a look around the 20 biggest ships in the world number 20 icon of the Seas now I don't know if you Harbor any strong feelings about cruise ships but this one is a flipping enormous monster of a vessel likely as not you're either a fan of the massive cruise ship or you hate these things with a passion and this one here is the biggest of them all this is the brand new extra shiny and totally enormous cruise ship icon of the Seas the vessel is the first of a new class of ships from Royal Caribbean the icon class this ship is a ridiculously sizable 250,00 tons and that makes her a whole 6% bigger than the current biggest cruise ship in the world The Wonder of the Seas honestly it's difficult to overstate just how insanely big the ship is if she's to reach her maximum capacity the ncon of the Seas will hold almost 10,000 people that's including crew and passengers but just think about that many people all squeezed onto a big ass boat and stuck together at Sea breathing each other's gross germs ew aside from the obvious excessive numbers in the people in size Department this ship is also no slouch in the entertainment area it's 20 decks High featuring a gigantic water park enormous entertainment spaces loads of family areas and a total of 14 New State Room categories it's a monster and it's due to set sale in early 2024 this ship is out to break all manner of records as well before we go on like this video smash the Subscribe button and click the notification Bell right now or this centipede will crawl on your face when you're sleeping now it's time for the fancy topic well this is allegedly one of the biggest ships in the world but I'm going to say it's actually a manifestation of Elton John's weirdest dream brain what do you think though is it without a doubt the snazziest ship you ever did see I mean it is without a doubt the snazziest ship I ever did see but is it real as always you can comment down below using the # fancy topic and let me know your opinion in relation to what I just showed you on the screen number 19 wonder of the Seas next up we have the current Flagship of the Royal Caribbean cruise line but as we've already seen this big fat boat is due to be overtaken by the icon of the Seas any moment this Cruise liner was completed in 20122 when she weighed in an over 236,000 gross tons and that was consider huge this one has the capacity for about 7,000 passengers and over 2,000 crew and has a whole lot of room for people who love to vacation in close proximity to other human beings and features all the junk you would expect from a floating city this thing is actually divided into neighborhoods just like a city and Royal Caribbean claims that this means that the guests are spaced out so that the ship won't feel overcrowded even though it has so many people on board there's a boardwalk with an arcade and hot dogs a candy store a sports bar and there is naturally a pool area that's stuffed full of water features and hot tubs and other sports and in addition to all of this stuff there's also a park with all the nature as well as restaurants and stores and even an ice rink a comedy club a casino and a theater along with a spa a salon and a fitness center I mean jez why do people even need to go float a massive boat with all this stuff I'm fairly sure that all that shiz is available on dry land already what is with all of us it really is so fairy exciting over here at the banana isn't it bear with us there are some Whoppers that are yet to come number 18 Odyssey of the Seas Royal Caribbean have so many cruise ships it's bordering on the obscene there are currently 26 ships of six different classes that are sailing under the Royal Caribbean flag and when you bear in mind that this company has all the biggest vessels and boasts of having the most capacity on basically all of their cruise liners this is a seriously profitable Lark this is the Odyssey of the Seas yet another of Royal Caribbean's gigantic Mega ships and it's essentially a massive floating Kids Camp they say that it's great for families but if you want to spend your vacation with thousands of kids screeching and leaping into the UMP team pools on board then you are a much braver man than I Royal Caribbean love to say that adults will enjoy it as well they boast that the salarium is an adults only venue with its own beastro and bar as well as Lounge areas and whirlpools but the place will also contain all 4,000 adults on board as they Shelter From the unmitigated ship show that is a horde of kids on summer break in a multicolored entertainment land land full of pools and arcades number 17 Freedom of the Seas another of Royal Caribbean's crazy Mammoth cruise ships this time from the early 2000s when she launched back in 2006 the ship was the largest passenger vessel on the sea but there's a big competition for that coveted top spot and always a larger lady waiting in the wings to swoop in for the prize she was quickly overtaken by her sister ship in the following years and yet more RC monsters just keep on taking the Accolade the Freedom of the Seas measures over 1100 ft in length and 183 ft in width traveling at a cruising speed of 21.6 knots she can accommodate over 5,000 people so that's a whole bunch of dinner rolls but nothing compared to the newest offerings from this most extreme of cruise companies at the time of her launch the Freedom of the Seas was considered state-of-the-art and had all of the facilities to go with that particular boast a prominade shops Galore multiple restaurants a library and many bars as well as a theater various clubs even an ice rink and there was also a dedicated Sports deck which featured miniature golf basketball volleyball and the climbing wall with the ship's fully equipped gym taking pride of place the thing is though Royal Caribbean just keeps on outdoing themselves with their own additions and and outlandish design features so their previously luxurious ships seem outdated and underere equipped when compared to their most recent offerings to the ocean loving vacationer all that constant upgrading must be a real pain in the boat number 16 Mariner of the Seas and for our final installment of Royal Caribbean advertising we have the Mariner of the Seas great this is a great big pile of ship that much is true but what what is different about this one compared to all the other 25,000 Royal Caribbean boats is well I don't really [Music] know they all basically look the same some are marginally bigger or smaller some have 20 pools and others have 23 you know this one has laser tags so you can shoot people when you're so sick of looking at them all day every day in this torturous vacation prison boat then you can cool off with a go the Flow Rider this is an onboard surfing machine because why actually get into the ocean when you can just float about on it and use a fake wave maker to do it instead then when you're all knackered after that weird exercise why not try out an escape room perhaps it'll make you feel at least a little like there's a way out of this terminal boat trip with 9,000 other bodies of course if all of that is just too energetic you can also get wasted in the tradition of the cruise ship there are dozens of of drinking and eating opportunities on board this floating city so you can numb the tedium of being trapped at Sea with a lovely cocktail or even 12 marvelous number 15 Carnival celebration despite the size of this ship it seems that it's unleashing in me a deeply rooted claustrophobia so bear with me as I poke around these next few massive sea monsters this time we're in the hands of the Carnival Cruise Ship company I just can't wait this is the carnival celebration much like the Royal Caribbean ships the carnival ships are all about excess and enormous entertainment facilities that really have no business being on a ship although slightly smaller than the RC big ships the carnival celebration is 183,184 colossal boat with all manner of stuff to entertain and Delight the masses there's even a flipping roller coaster there are a bunch of different categories across the state rooms on board the carnival celebration and they all range from regular family accommodations through to the mega fancy sweet varieties that are for the most well-endowed of wallet customers and if your room is windowless or overlooks the backside of a Lifeboat you may want to spend as little time in there as possible so you'll be happy to discover that there are dozens of places to eat and drink yourself senseless as well as all the entertainment that your drunken self can stand there is that roller coaster called bolt as well as all the water-based stuff you would expect and then there are comedy shows and multiple theater Productions and stuff to send your kids to even NASA stuff in partnership with the Kennedy Space Center so your kids can learn about science while you destroy your own brain cells in the bar H what a fun one number 14 Carnival Panorama now we have another of the Carnival Fun boats to share with all of you lucky lucky people if big ships are your thing then it seems that the market has been cornered by the two huge cruise companies of Carnival and Royal Caribbean this is another colossal piece of ship the Carnival Panorama is a Vista class ship that has been operational since 2019 and ever since then she's basically been outdone by all the massive ships that have been built in her wake but she is still sailing and she's still a big one so here we go whilst the upper deck of the ship looks like a marble run or a hamster Adventure Park it's actually a cruise ship covered with water slides that is one of the main family features of the ship there are all the usual offerings for intoxication in the many bars and entertainment venues but this ship is distinctly lacking those essential modern features it has no casino and more worryingly for a ship that is docked in California it has no Spa how will all those passengers even cope without saunas and steam baths and massages all over the show but compared to those colossal boats of Royal Caribbean this one is just a baby and has a capacity of a mere 4,8 passengers with, 1450 crew also despite only being a handful of years old the vessel is already becoming clunky and experienc problems in fact Carnival was forced to cancel some sailings and offer refunds to their paying customers because she was underperforming number 13 the Carnival Breeze and now would you have even guessed it yes we have yet another Carnival Cruise liner huzzah this is the Carnival Breeze a ship that made its debut back in 2012 and spends its time offering various jauns around the Caribbean out of its Home Port in Miami Florida such a glamorous life it has this ship is kind of big having a capacity of 3,690 passengers and 1,386 crew but with a gross tonnage of over 130,000 it's a toddler in comparison to the biggest current ships in the world and as we already know it isn't only size that counts the vessel offers its passengers a whole bunch of bars and dining opportunities as well as a casino and it even has a SP Spa oh so fancy number 12 Carnival Radiance next up we have another Carnival ship where this time she's proper old but don't worry she's been given a lovely shiny makeover so you can hardly even tell what an elderly lady she is the carnival Radiance was previously known as the Carnival Victory she first stepped into the Limelight back in 2000 under her original name but after years of service she began to look kind of tired well so would you if you had tens of thousands of people inside you every year in 2020 she got a facelift and some new threads and they rebranded her as the lady Radiance and then off again she goes the vessel has a gross tonnage of 102,000 a capacity of 2,764 passengers and 1,100 crew members the radience is the proud owner of four pools a spa and a casino as well as three dining rooms a whole bunch of lounges and bars and a selection of all of those all important Las Vegas type shows that Cruisers just seem to love I mean what more could you need you may be beginning to notice a pattern here that these ships are all basically the same just in varying degrees of scale well that's because they are and this is all incredibly boring so let's see what changing to a different Cruise Company may do for us shall we number 11 the mscc SC Cape as the third largest cruise company in the world MSC cruises a Swiss owned Global Cruise Line naturally has some pretty big boats so let's take a look at Several of them this is the MSC Seascape it is the biggest of the four Seaside class ships that are in the fleet at MSC cruises it measures 1,112 ft long having a gross tonnage of 69,4 so it is a big old ship well new ship really at 20 Dex tall the MSC ccape is comparable with her rivals on the high seas she has a maximum passenger capacity of just over 5,000 and a crew of 1,648 the design of this Mega cruise ship is essentially like a boat with a massive generic Hotel plonked on top of it you know like all the others but they claim that this vessel has an emphasis on its outdoor spaces and is especially well endowed in the prominade area the main feature that makes this particular boat stand out from the rest even that one with the roller coaster or the one with the surfing machine is its Robotron this believe it or not is a giant robotic arm that dangles the Riders out over the ocean what a fun one seems like these cruise ships are in an endless battle to push the boundaries of what cool entertainment they have it's lame but whatever this is the joy of the free market number 10 the MSC Seaside so rather boringly the MSC Seaside is the first of the seaside class of cruise ships in the MSC Cruise's collection she was announced first and launched first and has all of the same junk as the one we just looked at except that she's a bit smaller now I know it's a thrill of minute here today she weighs in at a substantial 153,50 16 gross tons still less than her sister the Seascape and when she was built she was the 14th largest cruise ship in the world hardly a massive achievement but whatever we are waste deep in these cruise ship Shenanigans now so what do you expect now although these ships may look a lot like the others we've seen they are actually holding a bit of a nasty secret it turns out that the mscc side has a bit of a hygiene problem she might be very pretty if you like that sort of thing but she is suffering from some sanitation issues the Centers for Disease Control and prevention's vessel sanitation program gave her a 67 out of a hundred because her dishwashing was subpar and she's got a bit of a problem with flies ew they took action however and now she has a much shinier and definitely more respectable 93 out of 100 woo still though I don't much fancy dinner on this ship now do you number nine MC World Europa here we have yet another offering from MSC cruises this is the MSC World Europa when it was launched in 2022 the ship was the largest of the msc's and it can carry almost 7,000 passengers having an obscene number of bars and restaurants in order to feed and water them all there are 33 in total in case you were wondering but in addition to all of this and in spite of the excess of bars that are available this ship also boasts a for Formula 1 simulator not really sure if you're breathalyzed before you're allowed behind the wheel and what they claim is the world's tallest dry slide at Sea I mean wow I can't believe that someone finally did it it's the tallest dry slide at Sea no one thought it possible but this ship has pushed the envelope and Amaze the world with its extraordinary achievement in the extremely competitive and dangerous world of slide building oh I can't believe it can you despite all the usual boasting about its Eco credentials and all that nonsense this ship is run on LNG which is liquid natural gas actually many cruise ships are turning to this as a source of fuel rather than the old fossil fuels but it is still a fossil fuel and although it may have some lower emissions in the carbon Department it has much higher methane emissions and that's all the same stuff that all the cattle in the world world have been parping out and making all the bad climate change with so you know it's still not exactly ideal number eight the MSC virtuoso our final peep at the MSC big ships is at the MSC virtuoso now I know I'll be sad to see these European Beauties go as well this is the maraviglia class cruise ship that was originally scheduled a debut back in November of 2020 but and you you may remember this there was a little bit of a blip in the calendar for cruise ships that year and she was held up schedule-wise until May of 2021 but when she was launched the MSC virtuosa had all the fancy schmancy junk that you would expect in a worldclass vessel and she was a big fat ship to boot the way they designed this class of ship was that each one would be bigger than the previous sounds kinky and they didn't disappoint with this boat's beautifully curvaceous proportions coming in at 181,000 gross tons and a capacity of 6,334 passengers plus a whole boatload of crew to service the ship out of them now that's what I call Luxury number seven Norwegian Prima we finished with the Mediterranean ship companies and now we're headed northwards to a nation of sea fairing people and another massive cruise company Lucky Old us this is the Norwegian Prima owned and operated by NCL which is Norwegian Cruise Line This was the first of six new ships in its class and she began sailing back in 2022 at 143,50 35 gross tonnage this vessel is up there amongst the big but she is by no means in the top tier of the largest ladies of the sea she has all the Charming features that we've come to know and expect in these ships though with a guest capacity of 3,99 and a crew capacity of 1,500 the ratio of staff to passengers is staggeringly high so does this mean that the ship is all about luxury experience well that is what they promise the ship not only has all the food options and infinity pools that you could dare to imagine but it's also the home of a weird and daring ride no it's not quite a roller coaster but a fair ground style drop ride nonetheless the the drop slide Falls 10 decks and gives all the booze addled board Cruisers a bit of a quick thrill so that's rather exciting Now isn't it number six Norwegian Encore this Breakaway Plus Class cruise ship was debuted back in 2019 at 169,170 tons she is a middling sword in the big cruise ship category but her onboard stuff is enough to make up for her slightly smaller size painted like a kid's nurse classroom the Norwegian Encore is not the most sophisticated of ships to behold but she does boast all of the modc cons inside and is especially proud of her all Cutting Edge technology there are three outdoor pools a spa and a casino so that's a relief but the thing that makes this ship different is it's so-called Norwegian Speedway that is the largest racetrack at Sea why don't we come up with our own biggest version of something and put it on a ship that's completely unnecessary go ahead put all your most outlandish ideas in the comment section down below what about the biggest guinea pig assault course at Sea my pet guinea pig twinkle will just love that one number four Scarlet lady it seems that bazillion just cannot help themselves and they need to poke all of their fingers into all of the pies on planet Earth not content with owning the sky the vacations on land and the internet and cable television Service as well as over a million other things virgins Richard Branson also decided he needed to own the ship out of the high seas and so in 2014 he announced that he was going to start a cruise line as one does this is the Scarlet lady the first of the Virgin voyages owned and operated ships she was set to take her inaugural trip in April of 2020 but we all know how that panned out so she finally took to the water in October of 2021 the ship is substantial as you would expect and weighs in at over 110,000 gross tons but the biggest thing about the cruise line is surely that they managed to get Jennifer Lopez to be their Chief entertainment and lifestyle officer does this mean she's going to sing oh who could possibly say number three celebrity Beyond Celebrity Cruises are actually under the umbrella of parent company Royal Caribbean nobody can do anything without their say so the ship is 141,000 passengers plus crew they say that this class of ship is designed to change the way that you cruise but how well they haven't quite made that one clear they do have the first female cruise ship captain in America though so you know maybe that's it like the Norwegian ships this celebrity vessel was the first of its kind to get all that fancy schmancy stupid elen musk SpaceX Starling internet facilities so perhaps they mean that you'll now Cruise the way that you do rest of your life by staring at your phone number two Sun princess although not yet launched the sun princess is the first in a new sphere class of cruise ships in princess's Fleet what a fun one again the new ship will be powered by liquefied natural gas better in some ways but terrible in others as has already been established but I don't know what if we just had fewer cruise ships and maybe did some of this dumb stuff on dry land where it already exists I don't know but this is all ridiculously wasteful already so why do we need to keep making more and more and more of these colossal monster ships yell at me all you want down below in the comments section I know you want to this one when it gets launched sometime in 2024 will have a gross tonnage of over 175,000 which is pretty massive but it also needs to be able to contain all of the dumb ship that people demand these days 21 decks bazillions of bars and restaurants and 48,000 swimming pools because why the hell not number one Disney wish and finally the PS day resistance Disney for some time now Disney has been doing cruises where you can get all the fun of a regular Cruise plus Mickey Mouse and who in the world would not want that not I even this old kudin wants a Mickey Cru the Disney wish is the newest of the five ships that are operated by Disney Cruise line as the largest in the fleet she's also full of all of the most fancy stuff and in addition to that there are hidden and not so Hidden Mickey everywhere there's also a statue of Cinderella a water ride called aquam Mouse the so-called First Disney attraction at sea and a whole bunch of dining places with the most theming that you can imagine from Frozen to Marvel there is Disney style stuff for everyone and it's a whole lot of fun I'm sure well it's turns out that you can have enough of big boats even sir mixalot probably had his limits but what do you think of this massive pile of ship which of these colossal vessels do you want to get inside of go ahead and let me know in the comments section down below also be sure to check out the other cool stuff that's showing up on the screen and I will see you next time
