World Record: Cruise Ship Pier Runners Heckled By Others

- World record scene right here. Pier runners are cruise ship guests who are late returning to the ship at a port of call. They are at risk of the ship leaving them so they are often seen running back to the ship if they are late. Here is Royal Caribbean, mariner of the seas in Nassau, as we watch all of the late cruise guests. This was a Bahamas cruise, and it is not often to see pier runners, but when you do see them sometimes it's funny to hear the crowd cheering them. Watch until the end to see if we make the record and witness the heckling from fellow cruisers. This is one adventure you don't want to miss! #worldrecordpierrunners #pierrunnersinnassau #cruiseshipadventures #pierrunner #PierRunners #Royalcaribbean #MarinerOfTheSeas #Nassau #pierrunnersnassau
Must see this hilarious parody song with pier runners
• Cruise Ship Left Them!...
Amazing how many pier runners this time. We had an early all aboard. That and a late shore excursion.
Ships should not wait at all. For those who disregard time
I agree
That's why we always use the ship excursions, guaranteed not to be left behind if late.
That’s the best advantage- no worries.
Us too. More expensive but worth the peace of mind.
I think the ship can leave u in some cases but the cruise line is responsible for getting u back on the ship. That’s why I’ll never do a private excursion. Way too risky to have my vacation ruined.
@@lamofonguera7807 not a bad plan.
Some cruise lines if you are with a tour group and the bus breaks down or a road is closed the ship will wait. This happened to me, my Wife and Sister, we were on a cruise to Florida and the Bahamas and at Disney World the monorail broke down, many people in the griup were stranded and we were much later then scheduled. The ship waited.
I wouldn’t jump to any conclusion. Maybe all of these late passengers were on a Royal Caribbean sponsored excursion where the ship must wait.
Thats exactly what happened....we do not recommend the excursion to Pearl Island ! 😂
Yeah after a while I realized that and did mention it.
Agree!
That’s what I thought. They usually won’t wait
If that were the case why would they not come in a big group like escorted instead of on their own. This would A keep people from cheering and jeering and B keep people from going out on their own after the excusion and the ship having to wait for people being late because of their own fault and thinking they will wait for us because we were through the ship.
If they were on an excursion booked with the cruise line the ship has to wait for them .
Right. That’s why we waited. There was one ship excursion late getting back. But the first several were on their own. They got lucky lol.
We were a ship excursion (on HAL) during Spring Break in 2015 on Mexican Rivera cruise which was at least going to come back an hour late. They could not wait for us to return because the tide was going out and had to leave, otherwise the ship would be stranded at the port. We knew we were going to be left behind, as the tour guide was on the phone with ship since we started our return. We had four other family members cruising with us and they were already back on board since they took a different tour. We called them to let them know. The port agent made arrangements for us to fly that evening to the next port, they paid for our overnight stay at a nice all inclusive resort and the next day we watched our ship come into the port. It was actually an adventure. There are about 30 guests on the tour.
@@MB-uy5kh wow that’s quite a story. Glad it worked out for you.
Thanks for the cute guy in video 📹 with monster drink
If they were on a ship sponsored excursion, then technically they aren't pier runners.
Right. I am sure the big group at the end was from a ship excursion. Hard to distinguish the first several.
True. The ship HAS to wait if it's their excursion.
@lindajohnson4378 yes they will.
I've seen a video of a cruise ship waiting but nobody showed up and everyone was getting impatient. It turns out a tour boat chartered by the cruise line was late so they had to wait for it. The harbor pilot got mad and ordered them to move because another ship needed their "parking spot". The ship did move out but stayed about 500' from the dock. The tour boat showed up a few minutes later but they transferred everyone to an inflateable Zodiac and whisked them out to the back of the ship. To my surprise, a concealed door opened near the water and they dropped a rollup ladder to get the 6 people back on board. I have never seen that happen before.
And That is EXACTLY why you should book Excursions through the Cruise Line.!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They did!
@arribaficationwineho32 yes. The ones at the end turned out to be a later arriving ship excursion but many were still afraid of being left lol.
@arribaficationwineho32 yeah that last group did
Probably, it was an excursion purchesed from the ship. That's why the ship had to wait for them.
Yes partially that last large group coming in off that pirate ship
Same thing happened to me when I was in Nassau. A large group of us went on a royal caribbean excursion and we hit a bad current which stopped us from getting back in time. I was horrified and they booed us all
In this case like yours it was ship excursion back late so they waited. The people still love to jeer and cheer.
Wow
Not pier runners if it was a ship excursion that came in late
@@SteveTempleton-yh9oz yeah I realized that at the end but I think the first several were on their own.
They should of announced what happened, they can’t leave it wasn’t their fault
If you are late, first round of drinks for everyone is on you.
I think this is my favorite kind of video.
How people are late getting back on the ship is mind blowing. You know way better you even take the cruise what time the ship gets there and leaves.
To be fair, the group at the latter part were on a late arriving shore excursion. The first half though they were just plain late. They could have been left if there wasn’t a late ship excursion.
I had no idea. A cruise ship vacay is my version of hell! Too many people. But this is similar, in a way, to when campers show up at the campground and everyone is watching while they back up and park in their site. Cheap entertainment especially when you see couples fighting or the person can't back into their camp site!
Haha. Indeed it’s good entertainment especially to hear the heckling from the peanut gallery
Even better is if someone us very skilled and does a perfect job of backing,instant new friend
It's always funny when an entire family is a little late and the youngest one is scolding the parents for being late!
@@largol33t12 😂. I’ve seen that before too!
I want to be a pier runner just for all the cheers 😂
You know, we actually thought of doing that just to be the one on the other end 😂😂😂😂
EVEN WORSE WHEN YOU WALK!!!! the rule is if you are late the least thing that you can do is RUUUNNNNNNN!!
great fun, commentary like a sports report. Hey, 1k likes, not bad!
@@MainesOwn thanks so much!!❤️
We were almost "those people" in St Lucia once. Actually had about 10 minutes to sail away, but we still got plenty of cheerful noise from the ship.
Wow. Glad you didn’t get left.
10 minutes away from sail away meant you were 20 minutes late from the all aboard time.
You get better results if you RUN!!!!!! When you run every one knows that you are trying!!
😂😂🎯
@@RoyalCaribbeanCruiseChronicles My favorite was a couple with a toddler running back to their ship. Mommy and daddy played football with the toddler, tossing her back and forth as they ran the entire length of the pier WITHOUT SLOWING DOWN! I was a bit jealous, they had the stamina of teenagers. I guess they jog or workout five days a week, LOL...
@@largol33t12 wow that would have been hilarious to see!
I am not sure about any cruise line but Carnival. But i know on Carnival if the back on board time is 2:30, the scheduled departure time is 3:00. If we have everyone early then we depart early. If we do not have everyone we wait until departure time. Later if people are on a Carnival sponsered excursion.
That’s consistent with other lines.
All this shouting is like fish wife's, this man is very opinionated..
Leave the smug individuals behind. I am not a person that is early, but if I were late for a cruise departure leave me.
For that amount of late comers they were on a ship bought excursion. Had to be.
Yes that’s what I concluded also.
Bruh if all aboard is at 2:30 I am gonna be on the ship at 1:30, army anxiety wont allow me to be late!
Good plan. I am usually no later than 30 minutes before all aboard.
The AIRLINES won't wait for anyone. I say the ships should do the same. It'll save them a lot of time and money. Now if they're in cahoots with the tour boat company, I agree that it's a different story. I had a plane runner incident myself. Got lost in Chicago during a connection flight and also through pure bad luck. It was after getting off a flight from Switzerland so I had to clear customs/immigration. Unfortunately for me, TWO 747s landed and offloaded passengers at the same time! It took a whopping 50 minutes to get through customs. I got lost trying to find the transfer gate and got to the door JUST as the plane was leaving, They had to rebook me on a flight leaving two hours later. Ironically, because I was the last booked onto that flight, the only seat available was in first class.
I don't know why but there's something funny about watching people literally running to catch the ship. I'd personally love to go a cruise and pray I have a stateroom with a balcony, cause i'd have a small thing of popcorn watching the fools who forgot to watch their time
Haha. Yea it’s quite entertaining to hear the peanut gallery comments.
The chairmen of the Darwin Awards need look no further than the piers of commercial cruise ships for candidates.
Hahahaa.
how unbelievably irresponsible. I'd leave them behind.
sung to the tune of the "Ballad Of Paladin": "Have passport, and blanket is the call of this group...Still gettin' their drinks on, but they heard the ship's toot....They're callous or forgetful and they wind up shamed....the ship has started moving and they've been branded....PIER RUNNERS!....Pier runners, pier runners, can't you tell time?...Pier runners, pier runners, the captain thinks you're swine...thinks you're swine...thinks you're swine.....
The slow people who weren't running at the 8:00 mark, the lady CAN'T run. Looks like her hips, knees or back isn't in great shape. Older people can't just break out in a run like you must think they can. They will get hurt.
If "All Aboard" is at 14:30 BE ABOARD AT 14:20!!! NOT just showing up. LET alone 20min late just strolling up it's nothing. BIG FINES should be given to passengers who hold up departure by more than 10min due to THEIR NEGLIGENCE!!!
I'd have a cart at the end of the pier and charge a $1,000 nonrefundable fee to drive you to the ship.
Love it!!!
I'd charge just $50 per family, no limit and watch the money fly in! No need to charge $1,000.
I couldn’t run. It would be terrible to be late.
I'm guessing the last batch of "pier runners" were from a ship excursion that ran late. Ship must wait!
Yes.
They might have had an excursion that ran late and it was booked through the cruiseline. Maybe why those folks weren't running. The cruiseline knows who's on the itinerary for the excursion and their estimated time of arrival back which is why they are still sitting still and the gangway is down, ropes not pulled up yet. Anybody not on that excursion and was late is LUCKY that day. ijs I like to get back at least 2 hours before the due back on board time just to be safe and I'm wearing a wrist watch that is on ship's time.
Yea that’s what I surmised later on in the video.
How many times are you going to say they we on a ship excursion
This was part of a live stream broadcast so for the benefit of people tuning in at various times..Thats why.
I'll have to check out RCCL's excursions now that it looks like they sail out of New Orleans. We live near St Louis and prefer to drive.
If passengers are late because of a cruise sponsored excursion, then wait a reasonable amount of time for them. Otherwise 15 minutes and leave! The entitlement is outrageous
Wow. The narrator of video1 just put me, my dog, and husband to sleep.
@@jjeannef227 maybe that’s good lol. ??😂 😂😂😂
What date was this? I was on the NCL Joy, we did a overnight there instead of Bermuda cause of storm. I saw them pull gangway up after someone got on and I heard someone got left
That’s the date I was here
That’s the date I was here
The ship should NEVER leave before 5:00 PM
ur in the NASSAU!!! lol of course it is hot!!!🥵🥵🥵🤣🤣🤣
If they’re on a ship excursion then they’re not pier runners lol js
True. Many on here we’re on their own in the first part.
I love hearing the cheers of pier runner hecklers. I absolutely love joining in with a rousing rendition of "Run, Forrest, run!"
Yeah that’s the funniest part
I wish we had been on the booze cruise! 😂 We don't recommend the Pearl Island excursion...a ferry broke down and we waited for almost an hour for a boat to come get us off the island!
Next time the booze cruise may be worth a try 😂
They wouldn’t be so happy when the gang wood pulled and they are left behind
😂😂😂
They are entitled
sung to the tune of "Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay": "Sittin' by the wake of my ship, sucker's left, and ruined my trip...Should have passed on that last fruity drink, I think the Captain's a bonafide fink, hey, just sittin' on the dock of the bay, watching my cruise ship slippin' away...ooh, just sittin' on the dock of the bay, wavin' goodbye, bye, bye"!!....
@@RickDuBose-o8q we may have to make a new parody song!!
I would just love if they could broadcast the number of late arriving pier runners on their cruise channel on the TV or the app…
@@lawrenceworthen4971 😂😂😂😂
So if they were on a booked ship excursion, why is there a need to run??? Nobody has to run under those circumstances and booing someone for that is un-necessary. I was on a cruise where a couple held the ship up three times during the cruise because they didn't feel being back on time was important. The Captain refused to allow them off the ship for the rest of the time. Same people THREE TIMES!!! and yes they understood what time to be back, no they were not from another country they were just plain stupid and inconsiderate.
Wow. Serves them right !
Why go through the trouble? The ship honestly should have left without them the second time.
@@eadecamp the second wave of people were on a ship excursion… I realized that after a while but still a lot of people late weren’t on a ship excursion. They got lucky.
we all have phones and watches!! and ppl need to watch what happens when YOU"RE the pier runner!!!! EVERYONE KNOWS WHO YOU ARE!!!!!!
If not on an organised trip they should all be fined or not allowed off at next port.
😂
Hedk yeah 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The ones who were on a ship excursion and were late are not "pier runners". So there isn't a record of pier runners. Lol
I sell water ballons and pay for my trip.
😂😂😂😂
…and get people banned forever for throwing items off the ship…
Problem is in places like Nassau and Cozumel they don't spend enough time in those ports hense why those two places always have pier runners
HOW LONG DO CRUISE SHIPS WAIT FOR LATE PASSENGERS...???
Got two scripts as Google not keen on saying idiots..
For ship excursions they will wait til they get back. For other guests on their own, they will wait minimum 30 minutes past all aboard and then it depends on the distance to next port.
Passengers should be charged $20 per minute they are late automatically on their stateroom bill. Everyone knows what time to be back.
Thru NO fault of their own.... NOT PIER RUNNERS!!!
Because of that booze cruise, must have been why the gangway remained out. Very rare for this.
Wait, here come 10 more😊
😂😂😂
Time blindness seems to affect only certain populations.
I wonder if they where on a an excursion
Turned out they were but the first groups were not. They got lucky
@ngiemayer7245 we were on a ship organised tour, and 1 hr late getting back, fortunately the coach took us directly to the actual gangway!
@@Palominohusky peace of mind!!
so rude when you don't even TRY to RUN!!
These idiots need to have fines put onto their tabs for holding up the ship...SHAMEFUL and ARROGANT
WHAT'S WRONG WITH EVERYONE!!!! GET UR BUTTS ON YOUR SHIP!! IT'S NOT THAT HARD!
The first few were simply late. The last group ended up from a late arriving ship excursion. I give that group a pass lol.
@@RoyalCaribbeanCruiseChronicles ok true lol
I’m curious if this kind of behavior is common on cruises in, say, East Asia.
Probably wouldn’t be like this in East Asia.
Those handrails need attention, will start to splinter soon!
Agree. Sometimes I feel like bringing my own supplies and doing it myself and b
@@RoyalCaribbeanCruiseChronicles Well, it's exposed to hot sunlight and salty air all the time. That does a number on the varnish so I guess maintaining wood outside the ship must be hellish work...
@@largol33t12 right and that’s why now on all the balconies it’s no longer teak wood. It’s white composite material.
They should have been left how do you get out there and loose track of time its your responsibility to get back on time and if u cant then stay on the ship fr
Our first cruise: our ticket said the ship leaves at 6pm. The real time was 4pm! Luckily we aimed to get there 2 hours before. We got there 4:05 in a panic when we realised we were late and showed our ticket. No-one knew why the 2 hour discrepency. It was very stressfull.
Wow..
Hello Nick
Wow 😂😂that’s crazy
No excuse make it your business to get back on time otherwise see ya 🙋♂️
What is so great about seeing people board a ship?! IF they were actually left behind now THAT is when it IS funny. This is just click-bait BS.
The title says “Pier Runners”. Not “cruisers left behind”. It’s still funny to watch them run and hear the heckling going on.
They lucky those 5 family members lucky the ship waited
It seems there was a ship excursion arriving back late so that’s really why the ship waited.
Nah, if all aboard is 230 be back on the ship by 2pm. Don’t play around with the ship or with everyone else’s time 😅
😂😂😂😂
Gee Skeezix....were they REALLY on a SHIP EXCURSION???...I'll retire to Bedlam!!!!..
I hear some soca music!
Yeah lol.
bpt everytime
It’s the all about me people
😂😂
Vhen time is passet just move
And these ppl just walking so slow like the ship owe them something het ur azz back on time or stay on the ship
It was a cruise sponsored excursion. That’s why they had to wait
If a person is on a ship excursion that is one thing but otherwise the self entitlement is beyond compare. To think that an entire cruise ship is going to wait for you.... is an ego that I cannot even imagine. By the way I'm sure it's always someone else's fault that they are late.
Yea agreed. This time there were many on their own that were lucky we were waiting on a ship tour.
I wouldn't call any of this "running".
@@MommaARA 😂😂😂😂
wanna bet booze cruise. they are always late! I am at 10 30
Pier walkers
They had a tiring day 😂
all i can say is. i would of yellled very rude things to them
Wasn't their fault. It was the cruise's own excursion that arrived late.
be hard not too
😂😂
people just dont care.
It may not be rude to walk, when late you be can ring the ship and explain, could be they cannot run, due to medical reasons, you can not comment without no know their circumstances !
i say penilized them. make them pay
no excuse for this. the ship should of just left on time
There were several later on in the video that appeared to come from a late arriving ship excursion so they get a pass.
If there is a late ships excursion the ship has to wait. If the runners are on their own adventure the ship can set sail without them on board.
@@lawrenceworthen4971 there are many that were very lucky the ship was waiting on a ship excursion
How long do the Cruise Ships wait. For idiots who are Late..!!
Run down to Foyer and take photographs of late arrivals.
.Then point at them at dinner...
They will wait if it’s a ship excursion. Otherwise at least 30 minutes past all aboard and then it depends on distance to next port.
There’s something really obnoxious about waiting to jeer at people. Especially when you don’t know why they are late. It’s bullying by terrible people who need to get a life and a moral compass.
It’s a common occurrence for the cruise guests waiting and watching for the late arrivals. Most of them just cheer and make jokes.
Listen i don't care the excuse no one should be late when going back on a port period, royal Caribbean should leave whether book excursions or not!

Imagine if everyone watching from their balconies, mocking and laughing, exercised as much as these pier runners.😮 I'm sure obesity wouldn't be an issue....😅

The folks on the balconies got back on time!
Brian, you literally weigh like 350 pounds, wtf?
@@dobees8183 Maybe with your lady laying on top of me 😏
Spoken like someone who's been on the receiving end of the mocking. You have zero proof that any of these people who made it BACK to the ship on time and are having their limited vacation time ruined because of entitled idiots, are obese.
Imagine trump trying to run and catch a ship! hahahahhaha I think I pee'd?

Imagine you not having TDS.
