You guys do realize just how behind on this you are as the Disney Wish is already been sailing for a couple of years now the next ship that is working on making her journey to the U.S. is the treasure
@@jpisinthehousenow8445 this was the only ship they filmed being made back in the day, this was probably released closer to the mainden voyage of disney wish,,they dont have any ohter films from other ships, but yeah they need to stop selling it as the newest ship but the treasure IS her sister ship
This is a really good documentary on the construction of the Wish. I know Disney paid for it but it doesn’t decrease my enjoyment of watching the documentary. I love behind the scene looks at these large construction projects. It takes years from ship concept to the first sailing with paying passengers.
I truly enjoyed watching this documentary of the Disney Wish. I have never been on a Disney cruise before, and this makes me want to book a Disney Cruise.
This was such a wonderful glimpse into the unfathomable amount of effort and attention that went into creating this ship, and, by extension, thousands upon thousands of lifelong memories. Hope to see some similar programming about Disney Cruise Line!
Odly enough, i had to watch three ads for aida cruising while watching this documentary. As a carpinter myself im absolutely amazed about the Level of craftsmanship put into this ship.
My wife and I sailed on the Wish for our 10-year anniversary, ten years after we sailed on the Fantasy for our honeymoon. To say the Wish was beautiful from bow to stern is an understatement. This ship was absolutely magnificent! Everything from the aesthetic to the professionalism and dedication of the cast and crew on board was phenomenal! Disney cruises may be quite expensive, but believe me, they are worth every dollar spent! Highly recommended.
DCL is absolutely a better vacation experience than the parks these days. You feel that “Disney Difference” in the level of service along with the utmost care of the spaces and experiences on-board. The parks have lost that difference. A DCL cruise is like getting into a Time Machine and being transported to WD in the early or mid-90’s. They keep raising the prices at the parks and the value proposition simply isn’t there anymore. We pay more for less these days. If you’re into Disney, your top tier vacation dollar (nothing from Disney comes cheap) is best spent on DCL.
Ive watched a few different cruise ship documentaries and this was my favorite by far. A good combination of technical, creative, really captures the spirit of the workers. Id watch this several times.
Disney's new cruse ship is inspiration and majestic, just like the great pyramids in ancient Egypt, says the Disney spokesperson in the first minute of this garbage "documentary."
you get the vibe thru all of the documentary, because 90% of the time you only see disney employees and not the workers on the shipyard who actually make it happen in the end
I've seen many of the design choices in ship tour videos and it's delightful to see the faces of the people responsible and how delighted they were in how things turned out. The physical design integrates so much with the experience of the passengers here - the Cinderella chandelier light sequence means that people gather around there waiting for it and it's then more of an event than just a decoration for the area. The theming of the Star Wars and Avenger's areas is great. And it's miles away from the Main Dining Room experience of other cruise lines.
I think its so fascinating to be able to watch a ship be built. Like seeing the wheel house get lifted up and put on is crazy. It seems so insane that humans can build things and create things that big and crazy
It's been a lifetime of experiences to write, direct, be a Silver Screen Actress for so many adventurous aspects of not just the cruise lines, but, of many prosperous projects, idealistic amenities, businesses, movies, music, and everything else in between my crazy kind of life in a world we live in.
I feel like I’m watching a grand scale sci-fi manga or movie watching them move those pieces of the cruise ship to build it. I’m with the worker looking up and saying, “it’s amazing.”
I will never have the money to see this, but thanks for bring it to life for us on TH-cam. This was amazing and enjoyable. What amazing talent throughout the entire process.
I’ve been on a couple of carnival cruises and was thinking surely you could do a Disney cruise at some point. I looked up these cruises and 2k is INSANE.
I was on the Wish for one of her inaugural sailings in January of 2023. She is an absolutely stunning ship and easily my current favorite Disney Ship. I’ve been fortunate and blessed enough to have sailed with Disney 9 times on all 5 of their extraordinary ships. My 2 closest friends and I are very excited to go aboard the Treasure in January of 2025 on only her 5th ever cruise. I’m very sure my 10th Disney Cruise on the Treasure will be my best one yet.
29:00 Georgeous launch! Paid or not; this is the History, Nat Geo stuff I used to love. Not the BS ancient aliens, bs treasure chases, and reality tv. Good old "how its made" and the OG STEM stuff that creates artists, engineers, technicians, programmers. The media these days is all about creating spenders with debt. We'd be better off as a society generating interest in things like ship building, engineering, and artistic designs.
Shipbuilding has largely been outsourced to low-cost Asian countries. If you're still building your ship in a place like Germany, as Disney is, then you're going to pay more, but you're going to get exquisite quality, and that's something cruise guests notice.
I love this ........ makes me want to take a cruise to have this experience Congratulations Disney and Disney Wish! Hope that my family and I can experience your delights very soon!
Kinda sad, but I agree. Looks like the cruise line has received all the magic now... I'd rather spend my money to do a cruise than spend a week at WDW.
A very groovy documentary on the building of Disney's WISH ship. Building a Disney cruise ship has to be the most difficult cruise ship to build, because you are not just building a perfect ship for people, you are building a cruise ship built with magic. that special Disney Magic.
In my opinion they should have put Rapunzel on the Disney Dream, because she had a dream not a wish. Yes, her dream/wish did come true, but I think it would have been better if she was put on the Dream and maybe put someone else like Pinocchio and Mr. Geppetto on wish because of the song "wish upon a star" Really, they could have put any character on the back who had a "wish" I still like Rapunzel on the back of wish, and she will always be there.
Y’all Disney literally owns National Geographic. They literally didn’t have to put it was a paid advertisement bc they’re literally still the ones paying and getting paid😭😭😭😭
@danielvandersall6756 I am afraid that it will become like the History and the Discovery channels. Very little history or discovery but lots of aliens, crystals and ghosts.
Yes, as someone who has extensively researched cruise ship design and construction, especially at this yard, this is an accurate representation of the design and construction process. It is, however, edited to simplify it for a more general audience, and to enhance the features Disney wanted to promote more upon the ship's debut.
This is the real engineering, not what I do as a so called software engineer. I'd have seen more about how they welding the parts together, and insert the pre built rooms.

Paid or not that was the best advertisement for a Disney Cruise I have ever seen. What a fantastic and interesting build.
Also a good advertisement for Meyer Werft ;-)
I mean NatGeo is owned by Disney, this has been on Disney plus for a while lol
It's a paid content

For those who haven’t been on a Disney cruise, in my opinion they are better than the Disney parks. The service, food and entertainment is top notch.

@@meanderingmouse I totally agree! It’s like stepping into a time machine of when Disney was at its zenith under Eisner!

14:36, Love how they just straight up admit it's just a big commercial for Disney 😂!
it says at the beginning it's paid by disney

Disney owns national geographic
did u just skip over the intro or smth?

ill be working on this ship in October so Excited
Congrats
yay! congratulations! good luck on your journey
Me too broh💪🏻
What a miserable job.
@@challenger516 but why?
I can’t wait to go on the Disney Wish! This documentary was amazing! Thank you so much for sharing this with us!!

Her Imperialist Majestic Prime Minister Staci Derrick.
This is an excellent documentary on the wish. Well done Disney Cruise Line and Nat Geo.
I feel like I’m watching a grand scale sci-fi manga or movie watching them move those pieces of the cruise ship to build it. I’m with the worker looking up and saying, “it’s amazing.”
Never in a million years i thought i was gonna cry at the end of the vid for a big piece of metal 💀😭
glad im not the only one oh my goodness
Lmfaooo same

These people are all really really happy and that does not coincide with any construction project I’ve ever been on. Fake smiles! Lol
0:11 is that a
I literally just said the same thing 😂😂
Can’t literally slap us with it that early.
Ja
Ahahah
Glad I’m not the only one 😂
For getting from Papenburg to Eemshaven a high voltage power line has to be taken down. Amazing.
0:10 When you have a blurred vision it just gets worse 😩
😂😂 I noticed that too
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you!👏👏👏 Definitely on my "Wish" list.💖💖
even thought this isnt the newest ship anymore ,its still a fantastic view on how ships are made and probably similar to how her sister ships are made

Good old "how its made" and the OG STEM stuff that creates artists, engineers, technicians, programmers. The media these days is all about creating spenders with debt. We'd be better off as a society generating interest in things like ship building, engineering, and artistic designs.
I toured this shipyard in April while the Treasure was being built. Absolutely fascinating tour. If you can get to Papenburg, it's well worth it.

They did a good job on this documentary. My eyes welled up at the end.
I'm not a Disney guy, but this was a well done piece.
We always go to Disney but my kids are grown up now. It's their turn with their kids to visit Disney World.
I love this ........ makes me want to take a cruise to have this experience
Congratulations Disney and Disney Wish!
Hope that my family and I can experience your delights very soon!
Disney cruises are incredible! Better than the parks!
Kinda sad, but I agree. Looks like the cruise line has received all the magic now... I'd rather spend my money to do a cruise than spend a week at WDW.
This is amazing, thank you!!!
This is simply amazing...incredible! 😍
We hope there will be operation lines of Disney Cruise between S. Korea🇰🇷 & Japan🇯🇵.
Example :
Busan ~ Fukuoka
Busan ~ Osaka
I wasn’t interested until the part where the bridge is being lifted and the alarms are going off - that definitely got me hooked
Beautiful ship,great video.amazing job.well done absolutely well done.😊
Not me crying. As someone who was on a test and adjust team before, I absolutely appreciate this video.
Sailed on The Wish last year. She is so beautiful.
Being a Project Manager and testing the AquaMouse, thats a dream!
The mind and putting all this together,brilliant 👍✅
I've been on the wish
It's a beautiful ship. Fun to watch :)
The whole project is so amazing to see in progress.
An amazing documentary!!!
I wasn't expecting to see this on TH-cam. I'm happy to watch it again.
Reminds me of a holiday inn, older ships were better
The new ships are hideous. Disney lost its taste
I agree, there is a size limit where the fun drops. For me its 3-4k passengers.
I want to live in that town in Germany. So clean and beautiful.
Except the German government. Dirty and evil. 😢
Amazing 👏👏👏
It's crazy to me how that massive thing is just a bunch of welds holding it together
We found the cruise is more likely to cause a seasick for unknown reason, but the ship’s infra is very good and very new
Very amazing indeed. 😮
Green light goes fuzzy at the wrong time 😂
0:10 look at the traffic light. Specially the green. What does it look like?
I love your Disney centered programs!
A very groovy documentary on the building of Disney's WISH ship. Building a Disney cruise ship has to be the most difficult cruise ship to build, because you are not just building a perfect ship for people, you are building a cruise ship built with magic. that special Disney Magic.
Amazing! Thank you for sharing, 🧘♀🚢
I wasn’t expecting a paid advertisement to be this accurate - but it is!
beautiful
Engineering at its best 💪👏
German engineering 🇩🇪
And three more already one the way and to be build / completed here in Germany. Great!
Gosh darn it, when will they put these on Spotify
In my opinion they should have put Rapunzel on the Disney Dream, because she had a dream not a wish. Yes, her dream/wish did come true, but I think it would have been better if she was put on the Dream and maybe put someone else like Pinocchio and Mr. Geppetto on wish because of the song "wish upon a star" Really, they could have put any character on the back who had a "wish" I still like Rapunzel on the back of wish, and she will always be there.
Thanks for adding actual captions for the Deaf.
Y’all Disney literally owns National Geographic. They literally didn’t have to put it was a paid advertisement bc they’re literally still the ones paying and getting paid😭😭😭😭
Lolol
National Geographic and paid content is not something I ever expected to see - is anything in this puff piece true?
Well Disney owns national geographic so........😂
The best way you can build a documentary…use the content creator that you own. Which part of this behind the scenes documentary doesn’t seem real?
Yeah, Nat Geo is yet another thing Disney owns. Thankfully they have left it alone so far. They're too busy ruining franchises.

Everytime I saw Cruise ship. Always remember the Poseidon movie and sewol Ferry. 😢
Idk I think I’ll wait until Jenny Nicholson investigates
Awesome ship 🚢
0:10 lol, I saw what u did there
NAH THAT CRAZY
i dont get it can you explain :(
Impressive video
And here I am, sipping from a mushy paper straw to save the environment....
really impressive
its a very fancy ship!
Anything that says Disney on it is a NO GO in my book!!
WAY TOO MUCH focus on artists and designers who never get their hands dirty. Lets see the REAL workers.
I saw the Disney wish when I went on a royal carribean cruise I saw the back it was beautiful
Wow!!
What an absolutely beautiful Ship!
I can only imagine how magical it would be to cruise on her. ✨
it's a lovely place to live
This is a very good idea was so fascinating with that video how to building a Disney Cruise wow very cool!
Build the Octoberfest ship. The Star Wars ship. The Start track ship.
When was this filmed? The Wish has been part of the fleet for YEARS
2016-2022 ? this ship is younger then you think...
The dates were shown throughout the video... did you not watch it? 😎
2021
So it’s like a big Lego set? Or a scale model just real size?
3:37 I bet it will stop slower when you have an average of 4000 passengers...
Worked on this project, it was a nightmare! If people only knew.
It is so beautiful ❤❤❤❤
I like your videos
Interesting.Thanks 😀
Does Disney Cruises still stop at Little St. James Island??
Wow
Love to see this
I dream of being able to be in a Disney Cruise someday
Yay!
This is a great ad. So I went and priced a Disney cruise under the deals section and I am sad to say I could never afford to go on one.
holy !! !!!!!!! wow
I may have to go on a cruise on this very ship. I've not been on a cruise In years.
that's a electricians and plumber's worst nightmare
