10 Ship Collisions and Mistakes Caught On Camera 

It’s crazy🎉🎉🎉

🫣😆

That are my thoughts too 😯

You had one job...

@@edwardranno7119yea

Or a food video 😅

You are both correct😮 !!!

Ha ha ha! Be careful - you might offend someone.

I WAS HERE FIRST!!!!

​@@leoncarter3812does it matter?

the thumbnail was the Mobile crash. (i was there when it happened) Carnival had just been there 2 days before, and the (Older ship) The Wheeler had just finished its repairs. High winds caused the Carnival ship to break free from its moors causing a Power outage and 2 guy fell into the water ( 1 survived) it then drifted across the cannel and into The Wheeler ship Trapping one tow boat between them. and the guy filming was not a BAE Employee (BAE was on the other side of the cannel).

Yup. Just too dangerous to go near a city, that's a UNESCO heritage site.

I don’t think so. But they have placed more restrictions on them.

They go somewhere farther down the coast now.

Yea I think it's a good thing! Cruise ships are for cruising not docking😂

Only ones over a certain size... just so happens that most exceed that size.

Thank you! His pronunciation drove me crazy.

The residents of Edinborow, Glaowstir and War-wick thank you for your contribution 😅

@@vulture3874 Consider also Louisville, Kentucky. Not Loo-ee-vill. But Loo-a-vull, or just Loo'vull.

Yup - an incredibly stupid mistake. No excuse for it.

Not all. Only over 25,000 GRT which... most average cruise ships just so happen to exceed lmao.

Yes the name Carnival does seem to come up a lot doesn't it? 😂

@@goleafsgo8496anyone would think they're the biggest cruise company with the most ships and who sail to the most dangerous locations (Caribbean in hurricane season, for example)

@@goleafsgo8496When you have one of the biggest fleet out there problems are more likely too occur. That said the cruise line doesn’t seem to have the best of luck.

Please don't pay attention to the AI narrator. It's only as good as the IT people make it. And IT folks are a idiot savant lot.

I am not Belgian, and I know you are wrong. Antwerp is the largest municipality in Belgium with a population of 502,604 inhabitants as of 1 January 2023 As of 1 January 2023, the City of Brussels had a population of 194,291 inhabitants. The Brussels-Capital Region is a region of Belgium comprising 19 municipalities, including the City of Brussels, with a population of 1,235,192 inhabitants as of 1 January 2023. To even remotely think that Brussels has stand-alone population of 1.2 million is just plain stupid. I lived in Brussels for 3 years and never thought Brussels had any more than 100,000 inhabitants.

@@montecarlomc2867 The Belgian capital really does have over a million inhabitants...

@@Dolfvids Fact: The capital of Belgium is Brussels. Fact: As of 1 October 2023, the City of Brussels had a population of 194,291 inhabitants. If you care not to believe me read the Wikipedia link, I have included and pay very close attention to the verified listed population of Brussels located on the right-hand side of the page in the details section of the page. The first sentence in the third paragraph on the page clearly states the population of Brussels. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_of_Brussels The City of Brussels is within Brussels-Capital Region. The Brussels-Capital Region has a population of 1.2 million inhabitants. The Brussels-Capital Region is comprised of 19 municipalities with the City of Brussels being the largest. Antwerp by a is the largest city of Belgium. Only a complete uneducated fool would argue otherwise.

@@montecarlomc2867 That's ridiculous. It's like saying that Salisbury is almost five times the size of London because The City of Salisbury's population is 41,820 while that of The City of London is just 8,600. Just as The City of London (the administrative area so called) is a small part of London (the whole city, in the normal meaning of "city"), so is the Municipality of Brussels a small part of the city of Brussels (in the normal meaning of "city"). The RU-vidr has obviously looked in Wikipedia and found the (correct) phrase "With a population of 536,079, [Antwerp] is the most populous municipality in Belgium," and not realised how ignorant it makes him sound to replace "municipality" with "city". An international audience is not interested in the details of a conurbation's local government. EDIT: It gets worse. 50 seconds in: "On December 9th of 2019 a 1000 foot container ship from Mexico City [!!] arrived in the port of Vosland, an extension of Antwerp's main hub." With this level of General Ignorance, how can you reply on anything at all in the video? I'm out of here.

'driving'? Every commercial vessel must have an Officer standing watch and so unless you disobeyed a poor command or were left without an Officer, could you elaborate on how YOU saved TWO ships? I'm not even a licensed deck hand, working instead in a shore administration. I have taken the helm of a 40,000 ton vessel out in open water and made course changes manually. All I did was follow instructions. Same as you, I think.

Well, as a merchant mariner myself, on cruise ships, the Master almost always dies his own docking and undocking. Then the pilot takes over until vessel is out of port. Helmsman could be anyone from chief mate to third mate, or another bridge officer.

​@@yeeebayeeba4268 out of interest, is there an actual definition of helmsman? To my mind it is literally turning a wheel (either directly to the tiller/ rudder or by turning a computer controlled wheel/ knob). I wonder if by Nation and/or Merchant Vs Armed Navy whether the term differs. I have taken the helm on several occasions on a large passenger ferry, despite not even being ships company. Although encouraged to keep a watch on the horizon/ displays, I could not take the place of the official lookout nor of course OoW. It was literally turning a small dial for heading and only in open water. Yet others have described helmsman as anything from lookout to navigator. NB for anyone who is interested, the Master of the vessel explained that under English law (may differ in other Nations) ANYONE so designated by the Master could be a trainee in any of the lower positions. Most of the crew had taken turns at Helm, especially those seeking to move into navigation department.

@@derektaylor2941 "driving" is correct terminology

​@@mph1ish​certainly it isn't in English, but you may have a diferent language as your first. But in any case, you missed the salient point and concentrated on just one word, dopey.

They are NOT Italian cruise ships. THEY ARE cruise ships that happen to be in ITALY. Smarten Up.

Why didn’t they spell it that way then. Lol

I salute you, Sir, not just for serving in one of the World's finest Navies, but for watching this gibberish until the end. That's dedication for you. Agree with foreward lookout though. I am not ship's crew, instead working shoreside, but I like ships so always go out and about with crew. The rest of my colleagues when onboard are sitting in the bar, not me. Engine room, bridge our out at the pointy end... Occasionally with a relaxed captain, finding an excuse to climb the comms mast for a good look.

I would bet on the fact that they now have to drop anchor in deeper water by venice.and tender the passengers and crew in

Insident di atas kapal yang sangat mengerikan.. 🇮🇩🇮🇩

When I was there most of the canals were smaller with lots less boats and gondolas moving around.

yeah it's a fun play on physics. as long as you displace enough water that weighs more than the ship itself, it'll stay up. and that tells you just how deep the hull goes down, to displace all that water

​@ghomerhust I didn't know that. It helps me understand it a little better, but I'm so science deficient that I still don't get it 100%. 🙂

@@StAlphonsusHasAPosse A famous Greek scientist in antiquity received an order from a king to find out how much gold was in a gold ring but he couldn’t damage it so he took it and laid it in a certain volume of water then calculated the displacement of water and that gave him the weight (with a bit of math).

I couldn’t ever get on one…passengers are so high up it would be a dizzy experience. I took a short trip on a ship between Amsterdam to London and that was all I could handle.

@marinazagrai1623 Thanks, that's cool. I love history, but, alas, I'm also mathematically deficient as well. 🙂

The captain should have gone to jail.

You just wrote what they said in the video 🤭🤭😴😴😴😴

Wow. You don’t say?

@@simmiesim321😂😂😂😂

@@simmiesim321 He's deaf and blind so he could hear or see it. You are being such an ableist. Do you always pick on the disabled?

Yes there is. Google is the place to 'wonder stuff'. Have at it.

Thank you

How much experience do you have with steering boats?

17:20 no "experienced captain" should ever put his ship in that situation.

So the captain is responsible for mother nature breaking free a docked ship. Got it!!!

What about mechanical failures

@@richardp.228 If the ship wasn't properly secured, yes.

Yeah. How do you get that wrong?

Not really, you just take the Oaxaca Peninsula to the Taulipas river !!!

For those of us not from Alabama we pronounce a mobile phone like they said on the video. Like Mobil oil company.

Sounds like an ai voice to me

Damn city slickers.

My sister in law lives in mobile and this comment is on point 😂

This is the Carnival Sunrise. The Destiny was renamed the Carnival Sunshine.

These ship collisions are both jaw-dropping and cautionary!

“Are you kidding me?” “No.” And “the dickhead steering the boat didn’t steer it right” got me 😂

You know this are very rare occurrences? I’ve been to 5 cruises in my life and they’re super fun and very much worth the money. I’d recommend experience it at least once.

Actually they claim for many years now that "dollar spent to value received" is highest on a cruise ship among vacation choices. Never been on one and have zero interest myself, to confined and packed in for me?

They are gigantic floating hotels, with a large side profile "sail area", so they are not really ocean-worthy enough to withstand a violent storm.

Stationary Alabama. I've been there several times and it's never moved once 🤷‍♂️

LOLOL

not with that attitude

its a Chapula from Xochimilco

Hahahahaha

Key statement “including the Navy” yeah you’re probably safer, more competent and better trained than most sailors in the history of the world

@@markanthony1004 I also sailed as a regular Merchant Marine, and our training was the best, They send you to the best schools, you can get a merchant marine document without it. Not sure how other countries work.

When you say The Navy I assume you mean the Royal Navy

I've been a merchant mariner for 21 years and no major mishaps. Minor ones, but nothing to get the USCG all frenzied.

Idk why but i guess i never really thought about it being a big issue. But i can definitely see those big ships being pushed easily.

There was for Venice.

So your ok and to hell with the damage in Venice. What a joke you are

I think it's AI

Not true, I don’t know that we’ve shown any of these before. But definitely no where near all
