International trade has been ferried around the world via boat for centuries. If the business of shipping stopped tomorrow, half the world would starve, and the other half would freeze. A testament of humanity's will to tame the elements and expand our reach; shipping has pioneered new technologies, revolutionized the global economy and reshaped the world as we know it.
We explore the incredible record-breaking ships built to move massive volumes of cargo and the history of invention and engineering that defined the industry. In the early years of the 20th century, ocean vessels became a site of competition between nations. Who could build the biggest and fastest ships. It was in this race that early record-breakers were built. Ships like the Lusitania, the Olympic and the Titanic.
