Truly, cruise ships have never been so interesting

If you are anything like us, chances are you haven’t spent a whole lot of time wondering about how cruise ships get built. Also, chances are you will start spending a lot more time thinking about that very subject after staring transfixed all the way through this eight-plus-minute timelapse video of AIDA Cruises’ new flagship, AIDAprima, being put together in Nagasaki. The enormous boat can hold 3,300 passengers and 900 crew members and cost $645 million to build. Truly, cruise ships have never before been so incredibly interesting.
