What happens when you combine six diesel engines, 2,000 crew members, and 6,500 vacationers on a floating city? You get Symphony of the Seas, a Guinness World Record breaking cruise ship packed with restaurants, theaters, pools, and even a Central Park in the middle of the ocean.
We picked this video because it gives a jaw dropping, behind the scenes look at one of the biggest engineering marvels in the world, the Symphony of the Seas. The documentary style deep dive shows everything from how the ship’s massive engines power this 228,000 ton giant, to the logistics of serving 12,000 bread rolls and cracking hundreds of lobsters daily, to why there is even a 19th century telephone aboard one of the most high tech vessels ever built.
What we love most is how it reveals the hidden world beneath the fun, the chefs, engineers, and crew who keep this floating city running like clockwork. It is a mix of science, engineering, and pure spectacle that will make you see cruise ships in a whole new way.
If you have ever wondered how a ship this massive can move, feed, and entertain thousands of people while staying safe and eco-friendly, this video is a must watch.
