That is awesome, I helped paint the 3D ship on the movie Posiden, and we modeled that ship after the Queen Mary. That thing is insane!!!!

 

came within 12 feet of the golden gate and it costs 20,000 to got with them n this around the world tour

 

it was 30 feet mija

 

really i heard 12 on ktvu news oh well

 

nah foo, I'll ****en sock you...

 

it's bigger (or longer I should say) than the transamerica building

 

Actually, the captain said 12 feet while being interviewed on 1 of the news channels.

 

i told you

 

nah, I went back and reread and it said within 30 feet

 

the most expensive ticket for the first class costed about $150,000 insane money

 

What do you expect when somebody has 80+ days of vacation time to spend hanging out on a boat?

 

Oh man, I went to ATP (All Tomorrow's Parties) which was hosted there at the QM1. Half the show was in the ship itself (awesome show by the way). I went to the bathroom on the ship, and found a door that was propped open. I gave myself a tour of the ship for the next 4 or so hours. Burned out a keychain light, and burned the crap out of my hand the rest of the time with my Bic. I found the pool which was amazing and got pretty freaked out below decks. I WISH I woulda had my camera and a better light, there was some truly incredible things to see in there. It was a childhood dream for me...

Too bad I missed the QM2. Nice to hear a luxury liner ticket is still out of reach for us normal people. What a shame. I would do many things to be able to take a ride on that ship, even though it's nothing at all like the QM1 in it's spirit or motivation.

Nice pics!!

"The huge ship cleared the bottom of the span by 12 feet, according to the captain."
