It never gets old.
When I was in high school 93 or 94 I was able to go to Avondale Ship yard in New Orleans and watch them launch a Navy Ship. Watching that behemoth slide into the Mississippi was awesome and something I will never forget.
I know this may seem like a stupid question, but are there any crew on the ships when they are launched?
That's pretty awesome. It's incredible that a couple in that video didn't capsize.
Andy - I don't know the answer. I assume not, but that would be one wild ride.
