This Cruise Ship Restaurant Hangs OFF THE SIDE
Welcome to the magic carpet onboard the Celebrity Edge, I’m currently 14 storeys above sea level recording this on a platform that is sticking off the side of a cruise ship. I’ve been following this ships journey since before she was launched and ever since the first time I saw her I’ve had some big questions. For a really big cruise ship: https://youtu.be/vjxs455H_60 To see a teeeeeeny ship (only 24 guests): https://youtu.be/P6KtW5c2E6Y My shortest cruise ever (cancelled at dinner): https://youtu.be/jppzHpO_8xU The first of course being what on earth is that orange thing on the side of the ship for?. When I learnt that it was called the ‘Magic Carpet’ my questions moved from what to why, why would a cruise line add this to the side of the ship, I didn’t know what it would be used for and I wondered how on earth the cruise ship could stay afloat with this hanging off one side. The Magic Carpet weighs over 90 tons, you’d think something that big and heavy would affect the balance of the ship. As soon as I saw the Celebrity Edge in Barcelona I was amazed by the structure. The orange really stood out against the blue ship and sky and the rectangular shape looked so different to the curves of the rest of the ship, she certainly stood out against the other cruise ships in port. ▶ Stay up to date: http://EmmaCruises.com/News ▶ Let's get you on a cruise!: https://EmmaCruises.com/Book-a-Cruise/ ▶ Set sail in style: https://EmmaCruisesShop.com *** ▶ Background World Map (Use Code EMMACRUISES For a Discount): https://enjoythewood.com/emmacruises ▶ Lamp: https://emmacruises.com/lamp ▶ Get Insurance: https://emmacruises.com/cruise-travel-insurance-why-you-need-it-and-how-to-get-it-step-by-step-guide/ 🥳🥳 emma@emmacruises.com
