Royal Caribbean's new megaship - 220,000 gross tons

For comparison:

Titanic: 46,000 gross tons
Queen Mary: 81,000 gross tons
QM2: 150,000 gross tons

It looks like the spaceship from Wall-E!
It's enormous! But is that zipline a good idea? I'd totally do it if I didn't get seasick on ships.

At about :58 on that video is a guy on the right without a head.

He's wearing red and I think is lifting weights.

Cool beans. Is Gemini Croquette holding a contest for a free trip? I have my multipass at the ready.....

I would totally go... but imagine waiting in line with THAT ENTIRE SHIP at customs when you get back? Ouch!

Darling, when you're rich enough to afford passage on that, you don't wait in line for anything !
