Video of the Day: Cruise ship belly flop contest

by Mike Barish (RSS feed) on Jun 27th 2011 at 6:30PM

I've never been on cruise but we cover them pretty extensively here at Gadling. Everything I know about the cruise industry I've learned from Saturday Night Live. So, you can imagine my confusion when I saw this video posted online today. Apparently, Royal Caribbean ships have belly flop contests. And, apparently some people film them. From the massive crowd watching each flop as if it's Game 7 of the World Series to the painful water landings to the ultra-perky MC, this video has everything that you need to either brighten your day or send you into a shame spiral after you realize that you scored every single belly flop as if you were an Olympic judge. We apologize for stealing ten minutes of your life.
