Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio surely believes in living life king-size! And when it comes to his enjoying the good things in life, expect things to get all the more opulent.

Exhibiting his “extravagant” love for soccer, the “Wolf of Wall Street” actor hired a $678 million yacht to enjoy the ongoing 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. The jetted along with his 21 other millionaire pals to Rio de Janeiro on Wednesday to board the Topaz that was docked in the city ahead of their arrival.

Apparently, the 482-feet super-yacht, one of the world's largest and owned by his Abu Dhabu based associate, Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahya, deputy prime minister of the UAE and owner of Manchester City FC.

The behemoth yacht was custom-made for the billionaire Arab Sheikh Mansour in 2012. Apparently, it's the fifth largest superyacht in the world, the first one being “Azzam,” also owned by a royal family in Abu Dhabi.

Whether DiCaprio has borrowed or rented the super-yacht from his billionaire pal is not yet known. But given his £2.9 billion personal wealth and an estimated family fortune of £90 billion, it's unlikely that the 43-year-old Sheikh will ask his Hollywood friend to pay.

Apparently, this isn't the first time that Leo has been aboard the superyacht. In the past, he has hosted galas on the vessel. Just recently, in April, the actor along with Jamie Foxx and Orlando Bloom threw an 80s themed bash on the Topaz in New York. Whoa!

The Topaz is a stunner of a yacht, boasting of a deck top Jacuzzi, a swimming pool, fitness hall, movie theater, a large conference room, and two helicopter landing pads.

Whether the Sheikh will be joining his soccer fanatic pal on the Topaz in Brazil is not clear.
