That's crazy you actually contacted carnival's lead designer. Your channel is higher than most tv shows

Royal Caribbean in 2000: Write that down, write that down.

They dropped the ball on this one. This could've been the most grand ship

As a Carnival Engineer i must say this is actually interesting. Some things, let me say, would have been left on the blueprints and would have never seen the caribbean light; I'm referring to the rail car elevating from the lifeboat deck all the way to the sun deck and aligning to the rail track in order to roll all around the deck itself. Clearly too expensive to be skookum enough. The lido features are quite interesting and it could have been easily one of the best in the fleet. The overall design resembles (and actually anticipates) what RCL did with the Oasis Class (vaguely the stern cabins arrangement and design) and MSC (overall design). The funnel itself is a curious divertissement of the snubby short funnel introduced after the Spirit Class came in (Highly recognizable from the glasses grid which, on the spirit class, provide some natural light in the David's Stakehouse). On a more technical side what this ship would have anticipated is the lifeboat arrangement which was introduced this way only with the Carnival Dream in 2009 (using basically no moving davits, gravity nor hydraulic). Really interesting, i really didn't know they were up to something like this but it is obvious this would have been a 1Billion+ investment. P.s. Buddy: Great video.

I honestly think it's so cool to look up cruise ships you have been on and think "I was in that exact spot" and it brings up so many good and fun memories.

royal caribbean is probably laughing at this right now

Those other carnival ships are so depressing. Royal Caribbean is on a different level competently.

How about: Cancelled: Group B (Extremely dangerous and popular rally series from the 80s).

Props for getting to talk to THE ACTUAL people involved with these projects, that must be a huge task to find and contact them! The amount of thoughtfulness and work you put into these is incredible, keep it up!!!

I am now officially in love with the Cancelled and Abandoned Series!

1:12 Its so charming that the design sketches of trained, professional engineers and architects still have that child drawing energy. Feels like there should be an arrow pointing to the top of the funnel saying “super mega death ray” haha

Ah yes, the largest cruise ship in existence: the sympathy of the seas, offering condolences and could-have-beens on 17 separate decks.

Your videos are addictive. I've watched some of them over 3 times

I am in love with Cancelled! Keep up the good work Jake!!

8:42 no one on a cruise ship looks anything like this lol

Carinval- nah we not doing this.. Royal Caribbean- don't worry , we will use your ideas.

A 'cancelled' idea would be the star trek Enterprise Las Vegas ship...It was supposed to be a full size replica of the model...

I wish that ship wasnt cancelled daam

Absolutely no one: Aida: 👁👄👁

I'm not a Carnival fan at all, but this design is very intriguing. It's a shame it was never realized.

Amazing video Jake. Totally enthralling. Proud of you mate: And now, a list of Jake's most used phrases from the Abandoned or Cancelled series: "Absolutely massive" "But in all fairness.." "Let's go back to (insert year)" "Proved to be absolutely devastating" "And that's exactly what they did" "A plan like no other" And of course... "Whaaaaaatsup guys! My name is Jake" 😂😂 hahaha love you Jake 🤗

When I am on a boat, I want to know that I am at sea, in every way. I have cruised many times, and I can say that I detest the glassed-in feeling of most ships, and also the fully-lighted shit. Make a space, on such a magnificent ship, where people can feel like they are actually where they are: Upon the ocean, especially at night.

And now, Carnival ordered a new ship called the Mardi Gras. It might be the ship that is the closest to the Pinnacle Project

My god that is an amazing design! They should try to bring it back.

Seeing this channel develop and grow since it's early obscurity has been incredible. You and the Abandoned/Cancelled team should be really proud of what you've accomplished.

If the monorail gets stuck in the middle of the ocean, how rescue?

“Carnival stuck to ships they knew would work” this would’ve worked no other cruise ship has some of these features this ship would be a gold mine for carnival

Imagine being trapped in the monorail as the ship sank or lost power 💀 (as u can tell I’ve somehow got onto a sinking ship thread and is paranoid)

Last time I was this early, Disney Quest was futuristic.

I'm wondering if Carnival was smart in their decision to just create simple ships. I'm guessing it makes sense because they're the mainstream cheap cruise line, and if they created a major luxury ship like the Pinnacle, especially nowadays, it probably wouldn't have been successful. Prices would skyrocket and Carnival would risk losing its place in the cruise line market.

The bigger problem than ship construction was port improvements. The Oasis class ships can't just go to every port. Royal Caribbean spent a fortune improving the ports for those ships. It was a big investment. I'm glad they did it because I went for a cruise on the Harmony and it was fantastic!!!

You would have need to spent a month on this thing just to probably see half of it

I've been on the Oasis of the Seas. And, well, HOLY SHIT IS IT BIG.

totally awesome. thanks for the video! how do you manage to interview all these important people? lol

A 6 year old video… but as someone who is absolutely stoked for Royal Caribbean’s new Icon class ship with a similar tonnage. I can’t wait to see your review Jake 😜

Carnival: Cancel it Royal Caribbean: we'll call it our oasis class

They should recreate this in 2017! I believe that it would be possible now..

wanted to take a second to appreciate how you manage to interview people directly involved with the stuff you research and make videos on. very impressive!

Now the pinnacle has been reborn in the new XL class of carnival ships like “Mardi Gras”

Hello jake hope you are well and having a great weekend so far. Just found you today and really pleased we have your videos are awesome bro. Fantastic editing skills and great footage bro. Huge thumbs up and love. We love carnival cruises, stay safe and catch up again real soon God bless you ❤️🛳️🙏

If only this were made by Disney and had a high school built into it. Then it would be perfect!

Wow BrightSunFilms your video is trending 22 never believed to see this congrats and I love your videos

I could be wrong, but I think this might be the first time Jake got himself a primary source for a video. If so this was the moment BSF went from good to GREAT. Love the dedication and love this channel 💜

I just got off the triumph. Her last sail. She will be docked forever and remodeled, and renamed to *Sunrise*.

These get progressively better. Bigger interviews, more in-depth analysis of projects. This is incredible honestly to see how you've progressed so far. Great job, Jake!

It looks like apartments on a ship. lol

The rear reminds me of the Freedom Ship.

I never knew this existed! Thanks for teaching me something new 😁❤️

This is your best video yet! Your narration has improved so much since you started this channel. Your videos are really a joy to watch and listen to. Cheers to you and your team! 🙌

finally original shit worth watching on KZfaq.

Wow. Imagine if Carnival had built this ship. Thanks for posting this video

Thanks for specifying the outro song, not only you run an awesome channel, you're also a good person in general

just realized 3/4 Disney cruises have a carnival cruise with the same name!?! edit- slightly confused with the replies. I was simply pointing out that some of the cruises have the same name. why are people arguing about which is superior??

Ended up reaching out to Mr. Farcus after watching this interview last month and was pleasantly surprised to hear back. I can attest that he is an absolute gem of a man and a master of his craft. Whether you're a fan like myself of the elaborate and vividly colorful charm or find it a bit overwhelming like some do, there is no denying that it immediately engages a reaction. That connection of creation to sense and emotion is, at the very definition, art. When life gives you a boat you gotta rock it sometimes. Joe has a book out called Design on the High Seas which is a fantastic read about the person,, art and history all bound together with wit and wisdom.

In my fictional world, this project never cancelled and successful

I watch these all the time your channel is my favorite. I love abandoned too!

You should do a canceled video on the Super conducting super collider which was going to be built out side of Dallas Texas in the 1980's and was going to be bigger than the Large Hadron Collider in Europe. Btw love the video

I watched a documentary on discovery or something about this ship many years ago. It was about how the design was strong enough with its crazy features. Sad to know it was never built.

9:28 Sympathy of the seas. Interesting.

Sympathy of the Seas? Hehe--it's Symphony! 9:26

I realised how poor I am.

Insanely interesting and thorough channel topics!! Love ur stuff 🙏🏻❤️🇨🇦

Yo this guy designed the first cruise ship I've ever been on.. The Carnival Miracle

your videos are amazing dude! they're super well edited and it's clear how much research and work you put behind all of them. thanks for all that you do!!

These ships are just too large. I even think that the Disney fantasy might be a tad to large. They just have too many people on board. You most likely will never get to do any of the most popular attractions on the boat because of the thousands on board. You want to be on vacation with your family not with 5000 other people you're rubbing elbows with

Carnival 2000:lets make a giant ship named pinnacle -behind the door :royalcaribaen copy all the designs

I think this will come around later on in the future

Do a cancelled/abandoned episode on the Boeing YAL-1. It's military not commercial but still interesting. It was designed with a huge missile destroying laser.

You should do a video on Camp Snoopy.

where..... is the guy with the briefcase on a people mover at sea tryna go???

This ship was so awesome. I would totally go on one again. I was on the Carnival Miracle going from California to Mexico. The crew was fantastic and the food was great. Chinese, Mexican, Salad Bar, Italian, Pizza, And the best was the steak house.

How in the world do you only have 200k subs u deserve 1Million my god

The New MSC Seaside looks so much like The Pinnacle. Especially the back of the ship.

Carnival should reconsider making this ship. They're pretty behind in size even with the release of their XL class ships the Mardi Gras, Jubilee & celebration. This ship class would rival royal Caribbean's oasis class and MSC's new world class.

i came back here, cause i dont think some people understand how LARGE these ships are. after seeing some of the recent ship releases and ones in the past, had this project got the funding it needed and the plans done, i think this ship would be around for decades or more.

WHAT A FANTASTIC VIDEO

To note, the Queen Mary 2 is an oceanliner, not a cruise ship. Most websites will separate oceanliners and cruise ships from one another. If putting both into the same category, it should be Passenger Ship.

Now we have a thing called Symphony Of The Seas

+1 on the people mover system for Royal Caribbean lol. I went on Harmony of the Seas a couple months ago, and it easily took at least 20 minutes to walk from the back to the front at a normal pace. An absolutely HUGE ship, and also probably the best week of my life so far.

You actually made it to the trending board. Big ups mate.

I actually just saw this video after disembarking from the carnival vista, no joke

I love your vids. The outro for this one was perfectly selected, caught me off-guard, good stuff.

0:20 I genuinely never realized I was in this video until today lmao

They missed out big, pinnacle would've been a high demand ship to be on.

Never felt so sad for ships in my life

That slide at the end of the boat scares me so much. Imagine going too fast or something goes wrong and whoosh, you’re in the cold, ocean water.😦

you're a very good filmmaker. i wish your videos were around when i was in highschool

Last time I was on a Carnival Cruise, the food was crummy, the decor was gaudy, and the last day had everyone pukey.

Royal Caribbean is upmarket cruises and Carnival is more on the budget end i'm guessing?

I love how these people that were leaders or heads of what you’re talking about are willing to speak about it. That’s cool great work!

The Mardi Gras looks very similar in size and shape! I’m glad that they’re sort of “resurrecting” it

Actually… Oasis of the Seas was being planned and contracted at same time this project was canceled, and the construction was finished in 2009. I think the Oasis is even more superior than canceled Pinnacle. Despite her age, Oasis class ships are still only ships with the unique split structure. Those strength calculations are extreme tricky, and the ship is very complicated to construct.

Royal Caribbean should buy this idea from Carnival and build it themselves

When I saw this on my recommendation page I thought it was recent and I was like “cool an other ship that will be bigger then Symphony of the seas” but then I saw that it was made in 2017 and I was sad but yet still interested

Tickets would be a fortune, but if it weren’t canceled, going on this ship would be immediately moved to my bucket list.

I don't like Carnival as a corporation, although I don't think the vast majority of people working for it are malevolent or corrupt. Like any company, I just think it's so big that safety issues and other problems just slip through the cracks. I've heard of some shady companies that have had some pretty nasty things happen (Enron, DOSCO/SYSCO, Knowledge House, ect.) but Carnival just creeps me the hell out. I just recently watched the video uploaded by Bright Sun Films of the Costa Concordia and it seems that there've been quite a few incidents of some magnitude that this company has tainting its past. :\

You're trending right now!

OK but imagine a survival horror game set on a Pinnacle-class cruise ship, trying to evade some kind of Thing-like monsters that have taken over the vessel. Restoring power to the people-movers to access different areas of the ship, using the rear water slides to escape from a massive creepy fleshbeast, all while trying to determine just what the hell is going on. Like Dead Space, but more like Dead Concept.

Your responses to the lead architect......second to none.
