The inside of the ship felt like you was on the set of The Shining lol [Here’s Johnny] Thanks for showing us around Chris enjoyed every second of that. look forward to the next one
I agree! The hallways definitely made me think of it.
She is a glorious lady with a ton of history. I only she could talk.
The children of the 3rd class passengers didn't get a nursery to play in. They were just sent down to the engine rooms and given grease guns and set to work.
Quite right too.
Awesome. Just awesome. You and Lamont are my favourite channels. Thanks!
Another great tour. The wood,metal,glass used at the time is fantastic. Engine room is cool
I have been fortunate to tour the Queen Mary. Had dinner there too. Did not stay the night. But I enjoyed your perspective. Very nice video. Thank you.
You've really outdone yourself with this one, Chris. Funny, but you anticipated a thought, for just as I was wondering if it smelled (musty, etc.) on the ship, you were going down a flight of stairs and commented on how it smelled. I can only imagine that the unused portions of the ship are quite musty. Thank you, Chris. All three of the Queen Mary videos are treasures!
23:53 Did you know those knobs on the railing were to keep the first class folk from sliding down them?
😉👍
Surprised the ship looks as good as it does. Had a prom there and stayed a couple of times over the years, and the cost of upkeep and rehab are taking their toll. The Spruce Goose was relocated but hopefully the City will eventually figure out a way to make it work.
Thanks for the nifty tour!
I hope you went and checked out the USS Iowa before you left the Long Beach area!
Man a open life boat now they are enclosed on ships like that
❤
That isolation ward was restored lot of it isn't original
If alot of ppl died on the ship then there must be so many ghosts, you should find out at night chris
There is no such thing as ghosts. 😅
I don't belive in ghosts, it's the living I worry about.
(Hint) 😉👍
They do or did a ghost tour of the Queen Mary
This wreck needs to be scraped! It is a real shame they are spending public money for this piece of rust
They are not spending public money on the ship. In the 56 years the ship has been in Long Beach, they only used $1 million on the ship, and that was to help pay a contract for security guards. Otherwise all money spent on the ship comes from a fund set up from the sale of Long Beach's oil fracking operation. No taxpayer money has been used for the restoration. Furthermore, the ship generates a profit, and all the repairs in the last year have been funded by the ship's profits. So if it pays for itself and its not a financial burden to the public, I say, the ship can stay, especially since it's still beloved by countless people who visit every year. 2.5 million per year, in fact.
@@AlextheHistorianthis is a rusty wreck, it needs to be scraped!
@@vassiliosazopoulos8618 lol
What an incredible and beautiful vessel. As usual, your videography and narration were spectacular. Thanks for taking me somewhere I'll never get to go in person. Thanks Chris
My grandmother took a cruise on her back in the 60's.
I very much enjoyed this video.
Chris you should have mentioned the queen Mary accidentally cut a U.S destroyer in half during escort duty during the war. 337 U.S sailors died more ghost for Mary.
I was aboard around 1980 when she was not even 50 years old. I remember thinking wow, what an old lady she is! It's funny how now 50 years doesn't seem that old. The difference in craftsmanship between 1936 and 1980 made it seem older. Thanks for the tour!
Hoity Toity(aka hootie tootie) Wow I Havnt heard that in awhile. I remember that phrase as a youngin growing up in a small town working class neighborhood. If you were able to go out to dinner at the Golden Corral as a family you were considered “Hoity Toity”
Thank you for the beautiful video Queen Mary. Wow.😊 beautiful gorgeous you know this is part of history that can never ever be replaced. They just don’t make things like these used to.
Thumbs up Big like the ship looks amazing thanks for sharing 👍 new subscribers here.
Chris at the 18:30 Mark you talk about “smells”. Are you referring to that typical mildew smell or like sewer smell. Just curious. You may have been in the presence of an apparition.
Absolutely love those old cruise ships. Always amazing. Never boring. Great videos.
The Queen Mary is an ocean liner, not a cruise ship. Built for regular timely ocean voyages, liners are stronger and engineered differently.
Ocean liner, cruise ship, well, you know what I mean. I just love those old floating cities.@@Dallas_K
Thanks for all of your Queen Mary coverage. It’s less than 80 miles away and I only ever went there once as a small child. Looking at that stowaway list, it makes me wonder how many there were that never got caught.
Hootie-tootie 😅. Am thinking you may have meant hoity-toity?
I did! Haha
The amount of man power & work gone into building & furnishing that ship just boggles the mind, trying to imagine it. It looks like no expense was spared.
Very cool. I would be hanging out with the lower class people, too. Thanks Chris 😊
Thoroughly enjoyed all the Queen Mary videos!
They should had given you a map of the rooms you can view thru windows and how to get to certain places. Poor Queen Mary has experienced alot of vandalizim sadly. She is a beautiful ship and brought my Mom home after after WWII. They use to have plaques in the various areas of ghost sightings. Nice explore!
Human being has a huge brain to build machines but a tiny brain to build peace 🕊️
So, I guess basketball shorts would be out of the question for first class?
The Art Deco interior is lovely.
So what did the downstairs smell like? Urine or musty? ha
Wow, this ship is amazing. Thank you for this tour.
Loved all the Queen Mary videos so far!
Yes thanks for the Gueen Mary views and a great ship.
In the mid 80's when I was 10-12 years old we went on vacation to California. One stop was the queen Mary as well as the spruce goose next door in the dome. The one thing that I will never forget was that part you showed where you can see the propeller under the water. I freaked out. Ran as fast as I could to get out of there. Even watching this video now freaked me out lol. Don't recognize anything else from the video but I love the art deco style of the ship. The emptiness of the ship creeps me out though.
8:41 The First Class Smoking Room.
10:00 The Second Class main staircase and elevators
10:07 a section of the former First or Second class section of the promenade turned into a banquet room.
10:35 A gate added in the Long Beach conversion (usually closed at night when hotel guests are sleeping)
11:30 A section of the Second Class Promenade
16:16 Second Class Main Lounge
17:56 a small remaining section of a Second Class corridor.
19:25 a gold mine of storage
24:14 First Class Smoking Room (practically gutted and divided up to be museum space in Long Beach)
29:42 First Class Main Lounge
One of your best.
I haven't been on the QM since the early 90's. I looks in a sad state of repairs. I'm disappointed with the owners to let is go this bad. Is the Russian still sitting next to the QM?
The sub was there in 04 or 06
Have you ever done a river boat like a steamboat? If not, that'd be cool. Maybe a very old one that runs down the Mississippi River and / or Orio River.
Its not haunted
Correct me if Im wrong, but a German submarine was next to the Queen Mary. Movies were made that showed that. I checked out photos of the Queen Mary, and the submarine was seen. Thank you for an experience of a lifetime. Appreciate all your videos. Norway was incredible.
It was a Russian submarine if I remember right. My dad and I did a tour of it in 06
Thank you, Chris! ❤
The thing that you didn't know what it was.. It's a Gate in the stairs.
I believe it was used to keep the 3rd Class pasangers from the 1st Class sections.
It was actually a gate installed by the hotel in the 1970s to prevent day visitors from wandering into the hotel area and disturbing hotel guests. That whole area was Second Class back in the day, so there would have been no gate.
oh dear, someone believes what they saw in the Titanic film. Try not to learn history from films, it is usually incorrect.
@@cplcabs while this person was incorrect about this gate, RMS Queen Mary actually DID have gates separating the classes in the corridors on B Deck. They were wooden gates that went floor to ceiling, and they were movable, to allow more flexibility of use with the B Deck cabins. They hooked into the bulkheads using bronze notches. And the gate was often manned by a steward to permit first class passengers free roam of the deck.
Ok, so they need 5 million a year to keept the boat maintained. Previous owners neglected that and that's why it looks run down like that now. Long Beach took ownership back and is restoring the vessel step by step but they do not use public money for that, they have some kind of a fee ships need to pay when they stay there. They have one dock that brings in 2,5 mill and are building another one so they can secure the costs. The front of the ship is closed due to rotten planks. But they are working on it. Lots of work has already done like lighing up the first class poor or removing tacky gazebos or ugly build in's that were made over the time. Around 17:50 you were in a section where at some point they put white wallpaper over the wood paneling. And some parts of the deck were covered with plywood where they need to put hardwood floors again. Etc, etc, lots of stories about the Queen Mary.
Surely this wasn't named after Bloody Mary??
Chris you should check out the Aurora Restoration Project. Its docked in the California Delta . The guy that’s heading the project is also named Chris. Haha. Check it out. Cool dude and great channel.
So glad you showed the bar. I was blessed enough to have a couple g&t's there years ago. I've been on the Queen Mary multiple times since I was a kid in the 80s. I saw the Spruce Goose which was really creepy but cool. My dad and I did a ghost tour on the ship and we went in the Russian submarine that is or was next to Mary. Such a cool magical historic ship
I just looked up The X Files and they did film the episode "Triangle" on this ship. I was getting similar vibes watching this.
Nice video tour. You should take the regular tour, they let you film. It's funny this ship sailed not that long ago and many people forgot this was how you crossed the Atlantic.
I miss the days when you could walk on Monkey's island atop of the bridge and walk out on her bridge wings.
I think they only do the Ham radio for special events. Thank you for trying though.
I have to go to bed, I will watch the rest tomorrow when I get from Church, I really enjoyed watching the video of the ship, I want to see the rest okay.
Amazing feat of engineering, it's incredible what was achieved with the technology and materials of the time.
I'm glad you weren't a guest on. That's doomed Titanic tourist operation.
Was that Coke machine from the twenties..
a product placement .😁
When I was growing up in LB my mom worked in the hotel so my brothers and I spent a lot of time there. It now looks like a ghost ship. So sad. 😞
Absolutely the queen Mary is a work of art in it's self.. Great video.
Most of the ship isn't original to when it left it's ship yard in Scotland. The ship has been refitted two times and lost of original rooms and items removed. The smoke stakes are fake. To keep what's left need to be fixed as soon they can or nothing will be there in few more year's.
Thanks! It’s like bring there! Good job.
Loved the day tour! The big room with the red chairs was my favorite. That little booth with the corner seat looked like a telephone booth to me. Such a beautiful ship. Thank you
I wish it was restored to original condition and would still do cruises. I'd def take one.
Very interesting inside the ship. The corridors reminds me of the computer simulation of the Titanic.
Awesome and absolutely fascinating
Nice video! I just looked up the dead inspector's address. The townhouse is still standing. ha
You didn't inspire me to but I did also.
👍
Two creepers ha@@JohnShinn1960
I was on the ship about a month ago. I would like to stay a week on it. We check it all out.
Very interesting. Its a disgrace how they have let the ship get in such a state though.
Been there many times with my ex wife Bobbie what great memories on the queen Mary.
Bow, front. Stern, rear/back.
Great video love the tour of the ship!
How gorgeous and spooky at the same time. Thank you so much for the great tour.
They destroyed so much of this ship
Nice Video!
🌵🌺🇮🇳🌺🌵
👍🏻✌🏻
Loved this series
Is it a busy hotel? Lots of people coming?
On weekends its much busier, but on weekdays there are fewer people.
Absolutely beautiful. Love the Art Deco. A shame the ship wasn't up kept throughout the years. Too bad the pools and front of the ship wasn't open.
1 class pool is damaged and 2nd class pool been ripped out
14:46 I checked 8 Frogmore Rd, Liverpool England on Google earth, it's still there, a nice little townhome on a nice little street.
Lovin these tours on the Queen Mary, I hope there will be more.
Thanks Chris! 🤠👍
Great Tour. Love seeing that Zenith radio. Thanks. Keep up the fantastic journey!
We visited the Queen Mary in the 90's and that propeller terrified me for some reason! I recall there being a life size scuba figure down there to show the immense size of it. As a ten year old it scared me!
Very interesting observation about the fluctuating tide and the ramp to and from the ship. Something that I would not have never thought about. I'm glad that I watched to the end.
Thank you Chris. I love all your videos and also on your other channel.
Chris, this one of the best videos of the Queen Mary i have ever seen. Very interesting.
👍🙏>>>💚~~~ Thank You for the tour
Love this series, BTW.
excccelent video.
What was the smell ?
Probably mildew, or mold. Lots of water damage in that area.
G'day bro I'm Joe love U vids peace ☮️
It’s obvious why the bridge is locked,.. Suppose someone goes in there and puts the ship in gear and takes a joyride?!!😮
Thank you for sharing!! I love the old fashioned ocean liners..they had class and grace that is missing from modern cruise ships.
Go beside b340 see if u feel anything most haunted room people have heart failure because of so much haunting in that room
Beautiful
