In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of Weil-Petersson volumes of moduli spaces of hyperbolic surfaces of genus $g$ as $g \rightarrow \infty.$ We apply these asymptotic estimates to study the geometric properties of random hyperbolic surfaces, such as the Cheeger constant and the length of the shortest simple closed geodesic of a given combinatorial type.
