  • the queen mary's sounded like a old geaser

  • Since steam expands so much, I bet the steam whistles on the great ships were wicked.

  • I think the best shiphorn that you can hear today is the thyphoon of MS Boudicca (Eks M/S Royal Viking Sky). There were three ships buildt in the early 70's and they are still sailing the seas keeping many of their original features.

    trye them out;)

  • @Supermassively

    Ill whistle your horn

  • YO THATS CRAZY YO!

  • My guess is the QM blast was louder considering it was MUCH further away than the truck's horn to the camera.

  • @EffectsAdmin , yes you are correct. The horn on the Queen Mary which is a Kockums Tyfon 575 is the largest and loudest ship horn ever made. The Leslie 300 would be the 3rd loudest behind the Leslie 425-DVE which is the second loudest ship horn ever made.

  • @BIGMIKESOCAL You should put a Tyfon 575 in your car, then. No, TWO of them!

  • Ship: Hooonnnnnkkkkkk

    Lesile Tyfon AE-300-110-MB: HHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNN­NNNNNKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

    Ship: ...

  • Sorry, I meant to type Tyfon. My appologies if I offended anyone.

  • @BIGMIKESOCAL actually, you're incorrect in your information on the QM's horns. The ship was actually constucted with not 2 but 3 Kockums Typhon 575's. The third one was mounted on that platform on the second funnel, which you can see at 0:23. It is this horn that now resides on the OM2. The two horns on the ship today are both origional to the ship, although I do believe that only one is working. So imagine how loud it would be with all three of the Queen's horns working.

  • aww should of left the back hatched close then we coulda saw some glass break :D

  • Why is it that the AE-300 blows a deeper note than the 6B? The 6B looks like a much larger horn. I guess the AE-300 has more distance between the diaphragm's resting point and the resonating point.

  • That cruise ship horn sounds kind of like a fart on the first blow...

  • QM1 was NOT as loud as i would have expected.

    in fact i would have expected the QM1 to have a horn note similar to the one that is in the back of the minivan

  • You just made my baby cry, you jive turkey!

  • at 0:49 a guy says " GOD DAMN THATS A HORN!"

  • Sad that only one of the Queen Mary's horns works. If both worked then she would be much louder!!

  • ...@alderaforall... NEVER call me "dummie!" You do not even know me. Jeeze, do I truly need to draw this rhetorical metaphore out!

    Two Great Ships: The Queen Mary- One; The Queen Mary II- Two.

    Two Rreat Ships: Two massive horns.

    One BadAssed individual, film actor and World Martial Arts Champion:

    Chuck Norris.

    Because he(Chuck Norris) is such a hard-ass; He uses these great horns as mere  amplifiers for his casual hearing.

    Comprendi?

  • ... chuck norris wears the queens' horns... as hearing aids.

  • @SittingMooseShaman that doesn't even make sense dummie

  • Thats cool Mike. How many blasts can you get out f the available air?

  • ha the lads so casual about it just shuts the boot lol

  • ship: hoooooonnnkk.

    your horn: HHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNN­NNNNNNNKKKKKK!!!!!!!

    

  • your car must be shaking to bits by now

  • lol the fat girl is confused

  • the boat's horn sounds like a wet fart

  • what horn was first

  • @fl00dsm0k3 , the Queen Marys Kockums Tyfon 575 souded off first, then my Leslie Tyfon AE-300-110-MB

  • @fl00dsm0k3 the beat boat

  • I know you're contemplating on how to steal those...

  • @Liynkx Kinda hard to do. each on of those weigh 1,200lbs!

  • guy in the background.."Gawd damn" lol

  • well blow me down!

  • Cool!

  • Queen Mary's horn is pathetic now in her hey day her horn was really powerful a ship without a horn is like a football match without a football

  • I like your vids.. keepim coming

  • the queen is no mach form bigmikesocal's horns!

  • sounded like the queen farted HaHa

  • haha the big chick looks back like wait that wasnt the boat!!!

  • kinda sounded like too much pressure,. in the begining,?

  • i would so fucking get that if only i knew where. thats awsome

  • lol i would so totally find one, if only it would fit in my car. It would be too obvious to mount it to the roof lol

  • hell yeh. my friend had that and it took up almost his whole trunk but it wasnt as lud as this one

  • COOOOOOOL

  • wat would happen if u closed the back hatch??

  • for horn collectors like me...yes, it is necessary to show the difference between the horns.

  • It is funny as hell

  • check out the chick with the fat ass.

  • HOLY SHIT! LOOK AT THE POWER COMING OUT OF THAT HORN IN THAT XB! Love bigmikesocal's videos!

  • nice vid but i guess the first part whas better

  • A FLAT! Perfect sound you have there.

  • Yeah, they are both blowing flat. They should be 55 and 110 Hz (A), but are 52.5 and 105.

  • Awesome!!

  • Exactly one octave difference between the two. Nice. Haha that lady who's walking backwards was trying to figure out where that second sound came from lol.

    Hey Mike, how often does the QM toot its horn?

  • 9:00am, 12:00pm, 3:00pm, & 6:00pm 7 days a week.

  • Thats cool, but you were a lot closer to the mic and the CM's is about 100 ft highter. much props though. you the man when it comes to air horns.

  • You are correct, The distance to the mic makes a big difference. But if you listen to the video towards the end you will hear a guy yelling "GOD DAMN! THAT'S A HORN!" That guy was on the Queen Mary's bow. He came down to check my horn out and told me that theQM horn startled him, but my horn scared the $**t out of him.lol

  • WOW that was cool:)

  • the queen go owned!!!!!!

  • HAHA!!!! GOD DAMN!!! THAT'S A HORN!!! Love that comment at the end...

  • *HO*LY *CRAP*! You can even see air come out of the horn!

  • thats not really air. Its because the air is changing from such high pressure to low pressure water vapour forms. Same thing happens when you quickly disconnect the hose from an air compressor

  • Simply amazing! your horn was so loud I almost fell out of my chair! Your horn sounds like it won this Ship horn battle. Ship horn battle one and battle two are a toss up for my favotire video on the tube...keep the videos coming.

  • Wow!

  • lmao that was awesome !!!!, everyone likes your horn :D
