Being stuck on a gigantic incubator with people who actively lie about being sick because they paid for a cruise and by God they’re going no matter what? Shit, I’m all about it. Maybe while I’m on the ship it can lose power for a few days or have propulsion and sewage problems. Hell, let’s go whole hog and throw some…

Build a massive hotel. Now make it float. $$$

I was always under the impression that you simply couldn’t open those passenger / emergency exist doors while the plane was in flight. Maybe the plastic cover of the door moved a couple inches, but I doubt the door itself did.

Honorable mention should go to the flipper auction of the Maserati MC20 that had been bid to well above sticker price before Maserati corporate flexed some muscle and forced BaT to withdraw the listing.
