15 LONGEST Ships in the World

There are nearly 100,000 commercial ships out in the sea today and that number seems to grow slowly but surely every year. But as time goes on and the population rises along with the needs of shipping, we’re gonna need a bigger boat! Plus, you can’t forget about all of the aircraft carriers tht need to be ready to deploy fighter jets and bombers and the drop of a hat, and even steel carriers and oil tankers are getting bigger and bigger as time goes on. So that’s why shipbuilders and designers are always hard at work to bring us something bigger, better, and longer! So join us for today’s video where we look at the top 15 longest ships in the world!

BROKEN UP in 2009.
It WAS the longest when it existed though - under most of it's names.
It was the Seawise Giant when it was extended to become THE largest ship that has ever been.
Fully loaded displacement EVEN WHEN BUILT was more like *500,000* tons, and after it's extension over 600,000 tons.
WAY WAY OFF on that figure - it would have likely had an EMPTY displacement of 74,000 tons or so.
And it was her DRAFT that kept her out of the English Channel, not the length or width - she was deeper when loaded than some spots in the Channel, much like ANY of the largest Oil Tankers ever (and there might be some container ships today with the SAME issue at FULL load or close).
It's possible she was STILL PARTLY ABOVE WATER when she was sunk in the Straits of Hormuz (which is NOT "the bottom of the ocean").

Thanks For putting the equivalents in meters

[@Randall1001]

I don't think it's the WWII Enterprise that you wanted to cite here, but rather the post-WWII Enterprise, the first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. That was longer than it's WWII predecessor. Just recently decommissioned.

[@KillingDeadThings]

The Price? Why, death ofc and ones Soul forced to wander amongst the spaces between the Stars.

Thumbnail ship guys is red from rust not paint haha I have seen tons of oil off shore platforms still producing and processing and deck has huge rust holes in it and pipes barley hanging on and rusted off lol. When the oil plat form your going to is red your stomach sinks knowing it's a crappy one that's 10-15 years old and destroyed but still working

Berge empress is built in Japan
But it was a Norwegian shipping company that owned is
It was I storage in the middle of the 80s and in a fjord in Norway as was the Batillus
And I was able to go see them
I mean going in to the engine room seeing the engine it was like going in to a cathedral
It was enormous
And just for good measure in the same fjord but a couple of years later sea ways giant was in storage and I got to go see it too they were really som of the biggest moving things I the world
Just F***g enormous

[@bruh-_-9168]

This is what happens if you are over consistent

[@RwingDsquad]

It’s incredible how often you mispronounce so many names and words in all your videos.

[@superheracross89]

Lol the admiral kuznetsov sucks it's been in repair for years and is out of date and shouldn't be above the ford

[@stever41g]
