Show on National Geographic right now about the ship "Faust"...it ships MINI's

There is a show on National Geographic right now about the car carrier ship "Faust". They loaded on loads of MINI's and I didn't know it, but our MINI's ride across the ocean along side Bentley's and Rolls Royce's...

I just started watching it. Fascinating. I noticed on the whiteboard in the briefing room there's a sign saying to watch out for reverse on the 6-speeds The drivers are trained and evaluated for their ability to load everything from luxury cars to Caterpillar tractors.

Just saw it myself it was a good show. I dvr'ed it so I can watch it in full. When I saw the MINI's it put a smile on my face. I always wanted to see this in detail.
