That cargo ship being launched doesn't seem real. How does it not split in two?
There are a few detailed explanations in the comments.
yeah, i've seen them roll ships into the water on airbags, but never saw a ship have so much steel cantilevered out over thin air like that. I think the slowed motion of the clip makes it seem like it's hangin out there probably longer than it is, but dang that a lot of weight.
And when it goes into the water, why doesn't it pearl and get stuck on the bottom? There seems to be a few videos that are fake>

Man that looks like an asymmetrical load on that hull! But it got me to thinking - how even is the hull loading in heavy seas? Does the wave load only the front, accelerating the bow mass upwards then once the mass is moving the wave sort of passes beneath the rest of the ship?
The building is on the hill in Pedro overlooking the harbor. Right next to the Korean Friendship Bell. Above Pt. Fermin.
