  • isn't the Emma MARESK THE LAGEREST SHIP IN THE WORLD?

  • @MegaJtrain It is, but this her sister ship meaning it is exactly the same size as the Emma.

  • Is it only two parts?

  • For the ship... Yes. There was another part to the show but it had nothing to do with ships.

  • As usually, the Discovery Channel have taken the easiest path. Transporting ripe plums from Spain to Holland is easy. Try delivering bananas from South America to Siberia. Now THAT is a tough job! But Discovery will never shoot it (unlike, for example, BBC) because it's... DIFFICULT.

  • @HrsaILA LOL the other ships in the Sealand Maresk fleet are the Alabama,the Adrian,and Estelle these ships are giants.

  • how come the containers don't fall of the ship when they just sit on top of it on ruff ocean water?

  • @MegaJtrain Emma Maersk is 1 meter longer than Estelle Maersk :D

  • Proud to be Danish!

  • Anyone know where the music played in the first few seconds is from?

  • A chance for the captain to relax while being in port?!

    What a joke.

  • @macktheknife888 Odense Steel shipyard in Denmark is said to be tha biggest shipyard in the world.8 sisters of Maersk where built there.But i think even this couldn't build it. If something like 2012 happens..God have mercy on our souls :)

  • Someone asked me, if you were going to build a ship like the ships in the movie 2012, how would you build them. I said to him, i would use a steel called Q460 and 5 inches thick all around top and bottom with extra beams and a real thick keel. Q460 steel is very strong indeed, use by the navy to strengthen the sides of navy ships agains torpedos. The weight of the ship should be around 600.000 tonnes and should be able to cater for 15.000 souls. Where to build it, well that's another matter.
