gwiz665says...Shipception.
chingalerasays...Some require huge dockside rail cranes and another heavy lift vessel is semi-submersible and cargo is floated into position while lowered and raised with pumps.

shogunkaisays...It looks to me like they're just transporting the hulls for fitting somewhere else. Still pretty darn impressive to look at.
That thing is gigantic.

spunesays...I have to admit...I was waiting for a really big explosion at the end. Damn you Michael Bay ruining my brain!!

They seem to flood the ballasts on the Blue Marlin which submerges the platforms that the hulls are stored on, which are then shifted away by tug boats.

Paybacksays...I take it the ship was loaded somewhere near Billund, Denmark.

Xaielaosays...Actually that track is from Tron: Legacy. Recognized it immediately, loved the sound track from that flick. Quite similar though to Inception.
Shipception.
