The Place Where Cruise Ships Actually Go To Die

What actually happens to a cruise ship the moment it stops making money? Not when it breaks down, not even when it gets old — the second the math stops working. The real answer is a beach in Turkey, where hundred-thousand-ton ships get driven straight into the sand at full speed and torn apart by hand. In this video: the ship that invented the modern cruise experience and how it ended up here, why almost nothing on a scrapped ship goes to waste, the legal system built specifically to keep this process hidden, and why every cruise ship sailing today — including the one you might have already booked — is already on the same clock.
