  • MUTE

    

  • better try cape horn in winter !!!

  • storm ?: no choppy yes try the bay of biscay if u want storm /rough

  • Some good memories there, that scenery is priceless when you are there at night with a full moon outside.. ahh..

  • i'll be sailing on this specific ship in 2 weeks time, for 6 months... finger crossed!

  • @Maxwedge12000 Absolutely true. I did it on the Pride of Bilbao in 1999, even got a handshake from the Captain he watched me walk from the 8 deck Galaxy bar back to my room on 4 deck with out holding on to anything and walked in a perfect;y straight line all the way back, even down the stairs..lol Good times eh?..

  • Always think of the Mediterranean as being calm and benign, never think of the Med being so rough and such heavy seas, but obviously it can!

  • Free ROLLLER COASTER!

  • Wow that crushes them waves compared to other ships!!

  • When a ship gets called Voyager it usually goes missing aka the U.S.S. Voyager and the Voyager IV space probe

  • Muy interesante

  • Where is apocalyptica? :( if you can restore the video music :D

  • I've never been on a cruise because I tend to get extremely sea sick on boats, yet some people tell me that on a cruise ship you cannot feel the waves, even during a storm. In your experience, how much can you feel the swells on a large ship like this, in this kind of weather?

  • @Maxwedge12000 Yes I do! I've been on a cruise ship drunk. I didn't balance any better than when I was sober! You're a big fat meanie who eats frogs for breakfast.

  • @tpstrat14 Your opinion has been duly noted........and rejected.

  • why did you change the music? :(

    if you can restore apocalyptica it will be great

  • @Maxwedge12000 its VERY true.. I was wasted and i was like wtf? maybe im not so danm drunk becuase im walking straight

  • iLOVE THIS VIDEO, PLEASE MAKE MORE, I LOVE THE COLOR OF THE SKY WHEN IT TURNS THAT BLUE GRAY COLOR, VERY SOOOOOOTHING, THANKS AGAIN.

  • Nicee vid whats the real name of the song? pls

  • @MrGilburt get on a diet!

  • The cruise would have bin much more worse if they got to listen to this crappy music all the time.

  • @Maxwedge12000 pirates definitely knew what they were doing drinking rum at sea eh?

  • @Bobbysboy I never thought of that but it seems right. lol

  • I madeout with a really hot chick from Texas on that helipad :)

  • Massive cruise ships like this are built to with stand storms much much worse than this. They have stabalisers and all heavy machinery is stored right down in the bottom of the ship to keep the centre of gravity as low as possible. Its completly safe a shouldnt deter people from crusing.

  • rich scum

  • The Voyager of the Seas was sailing out of Barcelona and will sail out of Venice next season. This class of ship is much more stable then the Radiance class. I just signed-off the Voyager after 2 contracts on the Radiance class.

  • Did you know, that I build this ship almost single-handedly?

  • lol without ever hearing that song before i instantly knew that it was that shitty production after just a few seconds... damn

  • Nice vid but i have to dislike it :( ....And the reason is?

    WTF!! Music ain´t Apocalyptica

  • Here is real Apocalyptica

  • bu muhteşem gemide 2009 da bir hafta oldum mutlaka grup olunmalı yoksa yabancı kalınıyor şehirden gemiye dönüşler çok erken şehirler tam gezilemiyor mutlaka turlara katılmalı bunun dışında herşey harika hele buz revüsü nü hala unutamadım

  • dude, thats a lot of water. the ship seems much smaller now. lol

  • Are you a capitan or an officier

  • @1998casablanca No I'm a gentleman. ;)

  • thats nothing i was on the independance of the seas and the waves were 25ft high!!!.

  • Is there a version without the damn music????

  • i didnt know th voyager of the seas sails the mediteranian i though the navigator of the seas sails the mediteranian cause i went on it

  • @xxcolonelRoguexx Voyager sails from Barcelona on a 7night cruise. But now the Liberty replaces the Voyager, who will be making shorter cruises in the Med.

  • I makes me wonder how sensitive ships like this ones are in storms like that?

    I'm not a guy thats gets seasick so easy but.....

  • IOO, Looks like fun, When i went on it It was So calm :)

  • @Maxwedge12000 Ill try that lol

  • The unforgiven from Metallica. This is the Apocalyptical version. I like the original version better

  • apocalyptica is such a crap.

  • i love that ship. i was on the 6 trip it made

  • Now we got modern ships displacing tens of thousand of tons and high tech navigational equipment to help us sail. I could only image what it was like for sailors in ancient times.

  • Funny ... nobody is at the front of the ship yelling "I'm the king of the world" ...

  • I have not. I have no great desire to do so either. Too liberal for my tastes. No offense.

  • @Maxwedge12000

    Me neither... lol. Never find an excuse to get drunk, get drunk instead. Cheers :)

    I'm starting to like you :)

    Where are you from?

  • @LucasEllerNewYork I currently live in Wisconsin but am originally from Chicago.

  • @Maxwedge12000

    Have you ever been to New York?

  • @Maxwedge12000

    Lol... such a good excuse to be drunk. LMAO.

    

  • @LucasEllerNewYork Heh, I don't need an excuse to get drunk. Wlaking straight on a pitching ship is just a perk. : )

  • not that bad... i've been in worse... got to give the mate on watch some props on his/her seaman ship though... keeping that big tub pointed into the wind.

  • You should not play this music for one of the most stable cruise ships in the world. She is with the most stable cruise line in the world! She does not even roll from side to side! And what kind of storm did you show us?

  • @ckbaritone101 Oh she rolls alright. There's video of it after a wave takes out her engines. The storm she's in is Cyclone Valentina.

  • @greyseagirl, I haven't heard of Voyager of the Seas losing her engines in a storm or seen any videos of such thing happening. You sure it's this ship?

  • @tupsumato Search Voyager in Cyclone Valentina and Bing search it. Feb 14, 2005

  • @greyseagirl, ah, that. It's not the same ship as this. "Voyager of the Seas" is more than 130 meters longer than "Olympia Voyager".

  • did we have to put this gay ass sad music ?? its not a funeral, its a ship.

  • @FreezEntertainment its metallica!

  • @Maxwedge12000 Yea ik happend to my friend when we went on the carnival celebration

  • @Maxwedge12000 haha lol...yeh except when u can't actually stand tho :/

  • @Maxwedge12000 HHAHAHAHAHAH thats awesome

  • wow do u work as an officer on the ship?This is a huge ship!

  • what is the name of the song

  • @grundin3 unforgiven by metallica

  • @grundin3 hey i can send you the mp3 clip of the song if u want :D

  • @Maxwedge12000 jajajjajajajajaja verry cool. I'm going to buy a ship

  • I was there as a crew member we were sailing from Palermo to Barcelona.

    it was funny everybody scare and sick, but nobody miss dinner, jajaja amazing

  • oo Apocalyptica :)

  • @Frozenyak search this video " Bad weather 21-2-2007 " this is a monster storm sea

  • was not a big storm sea.. please

  • @TylerMonaco Trying to play hard to impress? It is stormy seas damn right it is. If you'd stand on the bridge and feel the ship plunges back down you'd change your mind. Trust me.

  • how far can large ships pitch/roll without capsizing?

  • @norwichstrangler

    It depends on the design. This Ship it might be 30- 35 degrees maybe even 40 degrees. But thats not the biggest problem. The captain can steer the ship in a way that will counteract the roll to stop it going over. Bit like a car that you steer to stop a slide. The big danger is a BIG wave hitting the side of the hull just at the wrong time. If that happens your kinda screwed.

  • @jmbeventphotography cruise ships have stabalizers like the wings of an airplane that automatically control the roll of the ship. A roll over is unlikley .

  • @101HeyNow Oh yes it will roll over. There have been many ships that have capsized even with stabilisers. Stabilisers can only compensate up to a point usually sea state SF9 or so. Once you go beyond this point its not a good idea. For example if a ship is hit by a large wave on the port or starboard side and it rolls over it should be ok. The problem come if another wave comes and hits it before it comes back on to the level. Thats what capsizes a ship even with stabilisers.

  • how far can ships pitch/roll in heavy seas and not capsize?

  • depends on the righting arm (GZ) of the vessel

  • was it winter at that time because the waves look freaking high.plz answer

  • this song totaly fits this vid like it just blends in

  • i wish there was a part2

  • Sod that, I get sea sick in a bath,,,

  • so were u having a hard time staying balanced? cuz of the waves nd everything? or can u not feel them?

  • hmm not for anything but how fast was the ship saling ? ??? 15 knts ?

  • so wen its in rough seas like that is it hard to balance and r u like all over the place cuz the ship is moving everywhere??

  • Are you an officer how'd you get on the bridge? I've been on the voyager once before on a trip to Alaska the thing is huge.

  • high were the seas cuz they look pretty bad

  • Comment removed

  • Best time of my life on that ship!! its awesome, free food all the time

  • Asher you're such a funny guy. How did you manage to keep all that free grub in your bread basket while smashing through these waves? Unless of course you weren't on this cruise but a nice smooth food-keeping-in stomach waters cruise.

  • don t forghet this video make in mediteranean sea not in acean sea

  • Comment removed

  • apocalyptica's play metallica

  • how did u capture this on the bridge? are u an officer?

  • That my friend was not 60 - 70 kts, even in the Med it would have the top of the waves blown off and would be a white maelstrom.

  • This's what happens when Captain Frank.M doesn't use wings!!!

  • do you call this storm? thsi is nothing :)

  • the music from Apocalyptica,from Finland,like the ship...:)

  • The song is from metallica unforgiven

  • The Unforgiven is by Metallica, which band copyed who?

  • I like this version tho

  • I like the music unforgiven :D

  • Dangerous Waves

  • I got married on that ship less then a year prior to this, nice ship. I was on another cruise ship back in 2004 as we left from Aruba that was caught in the middle of a hurricane on a day at sea & the stabilizers failed, Wasn't as bad as this but it was still pretty bad, people where getting sea sick all over the place so I stayed in my cabin though the smell still was all over.

  • you were under greece island...i watched the cours 305 degrees...Nw

  • I don t know about cruise lines that operate outside of the USA but, but I have been on several cruises from the states. They are the safest and I have no misgivings about any of them. They will always put their guest and crew above money. I have had trips cancelled because of impending hurricanes. On Carnival you have to attend a mandatory life vest and life boat drill before sailing. Ther is no safer place to be than on a cruise ship. Of course you can t stand on the railings

  • I never knew & realized how big the waves can get in the mediterranean sea, wow!!

  • i worked on voyager in the casino and was a lifeboat commander this is filmed from the bridge

  • Great video! Can you post an HQ version?

  • i was working there then...

  • I would not like to be there

  • metallica - the unforgiven (remix or something)

  • i went on her sister the independence they are both same size so trust me they are big waves as this and the independence are the worlds biggest ships

  • The song

  • Honey, where did I put the f_____ing Compazine? Love the Apocalyptica version of the Metallica song! It Rocks!

  • the Cello, is one of the most Legendary instruments... im so happy that i know how to play it :D

  • nah, you can't sliiiiiiiide the trombone....

  • what does that have to do with anything? just asking >.> it was kinda... nvm

  • comeone said that th cello was the ultimate instrument.

    it isnt

  • i said "One" of the legendary instruments

  • i could have u fool

  • i was on it in 19th july 2009-26th july 2009 any1 else on it there?

  • the unforgiven!

  • sick song

  • This ship is ridiculously stable. If I may add, the new line or RC ships are not that stable at high seas. I've been in almost all of them and my best ride was with she.

  • the sea was like this onboard the independence of the seas last year, please check out my rough seas on independence video :) thanks

  • I was on this ship last week, I had a great time in the western med.

  • i went on this ship like two years ago to the caribbean...and its the best experience you can ever have!

  • how big is this boat?

  • I am going on the Voyager of the Seas tommorrow - Western Mediterranean

  • other ships would have sank in that like the titanic o and it is a butiy

  • The Titanic would not have been sunk by a strom you fool, she sank because of a freak accident.

  • Damn you got to stand on the board? You work there?

  • i was on the explorer of the seas (the voyagers sister ship) in waves that came up about 3/4 of the way to the outer, lower deck. they closed the decks down because the splashs came over the rail and they were big!

  • shit what size are those waves

  • Nice video. Going to see Metallica in Nov. 09. I love this!!!!!

  • fuuuuckk. i'm going on a cruise there in may to the mediterranean on this ship. this doesnt make me excited anymore =/

  • dont worry,the realy big ships never go down anymore.

  • thats wrong,exact these big ships go down. because the vertical height let them react bad in case of big waves

    EVERY ship can go down, every

  • i love Royal caribbean best cruise line ever on my two cruises on navigator and independence were "like no other vacation"

  • NICE SHIPH

  • NICE SHIPH

  • Ive been on Voyager, Yes a beautiful ship, Im however going on the Independance for the second time on May 24th.

  • wow, I never heard it like this in just strings. sounds like a movie soundtrack now

  • Apocalyptica is a finnish band which has made some success with symphonic versions of Metallica and other heevy metal bands. Wathed them live in Gothebourg some years ago, in pouring rain:) Nice vid btw

  • is this metallica

  • do u work on this ship how did u get to go in the bridge

  • Comment removed

  • Yes this was bad but not as bad as it looks, the ship seemed to stay pretty steady

  • It should be, given its massive weight and width.

    A large wave only weighs 300 tons, yet this beast weighs 130 000 tonnes.

  • V of Seas 130.000 tons was biggest cruise ship when lunched in 98 or 99

  • 1999

  • I've been on this ship before. Crazy to see it tossed around. Great song!

  • Yes sir it is indeed the bridge.

  • looks like an ovation deck to me

  • I'v been on the Voyager. She's so huge. To think this could happen...makes me speachless.

  • Wow... the Voyager of the Seas... I really wish I get to see this beauty with my own eyes someday... Ships is a little hobby of mine.

    And man she is one beautiful beast of a ship!

  • I share your passion for the another Royal Caribbean ship, The Independence Of The Seas which I went on last May 08, it is an amazing ship and have booked a med cruise for May this year 2009 to go on her again, so massive but felt a warmth from the staff and passengers... mark

  • I agree! She is a beautiful ship!

  • The music is "The Unforgiven" written by Mettalica, this version probally by Ciello band "Apocaliptica" or something like that.

  • That music, is that from Hitchhikers Guide to the galaxy and the BBC radio theatre of it? I recognize it! But cant really put my finger on it. . :S

  • I was there during this storm. It wasn`t nothing bad to see! It was just a casual storm. There was much more devastating storms!

  • sUPER BEATIFUL SHIP fınısh problem

  • music is irritating beyond belief

  • The most terrible on this storm is the music.

  • Is that Apocalyptica ? Nice vid

  • The song is Metallica's "The Unforgiven", of course. I'm pretty sure it's Apocalyptica too, yeah.

  • heavy seas, i've always liked it!

  • i wanna drive these cruise ships when im a lil older

  • I love it when i am on cruises and stormy seas hit! So much fun rocking around the boat and Going in the pools! Waves every where!!!
