    I always found Richard Hammond a great host for shows like this. He always gets the emotion and sense of it all trough the screen.

    Finally a video that helps my brain grasp how large these ships are and how it’s possible to fit 18,000 thousand containers

    When I become a billionaire (yeah right) Instead of buying a yacht in Monaco. I’m going to buy one of these, and park it in Monaco, just to annoy everyone

    I load containers like that often at my job and where I work, we cram each one full of product...Ours typically weigh over 40,000 pounds each...FYI, they're not fun to load...That ship is incredible to be able to carry that much cargo...Really cool seeing how these products go all over the world.

    I'm a history teacher. Can't explain it and I feel super weird, but when he stood next to the propeller with just that thick steel wall between them - I choked up and got emotional. Something hit a chord inside. The progress of humanity, the need and hunt for more. It's not all good, but it's astonishing.
  • @oldben1800
    that propeller is a work of art...my god...and the way he explains it was awesome

    Seing Maersk representing a small country like Denmark in such a grand scale, makes me reflect on the words that author, Hans Christian Andersen wrote in his song from 1850, "in Denmark i am born". "Once you were the lord of the entire North. Conquered England - Now you're being called weak; A little country and then again so widely around earth, the song and the chisel of the Danes is still heard."

  • @racememrulkayes
    I wasn't to finish it where it abruptly finished. Such a well made video I was hoping it would go on and on
  • @svdagoat7972
    I live in Key West and every time I run offshore we cross paths with these ships they are massive, definitely a site to see.
