#NBCNews #Cruise #Overboard
That would just about have to be deliberate, I’ve never been on a cruise ship but I’m sure you just can’t fall off of one on accident. Unless you’re like Rose and just leaning over to see the propellers
😂😂😂
I was literally thinking of Rose, and then The Way of the Water…. R.I.P. to the passenger!
…or you are very, very drunk like the guy 2 weeks ago who did just this…he was found!
It was a suicide
@FN-1701AgentGodzillaRangerPrime Ω that’s most likely
👆 – NЕW А DАТING ONLINE 💗👄t💗
I get a little distraught at times when a cruise comes to an end, but not enough to jump overboard.
Unless you discover the Final Total Bar Bill…
Exact same thing just happened in Australia
AGAIN? Open Bar, Floating Hotel, drunk idiots you see 86ed from planes? What could go wrong?
Why are so many people falling over these rails do they need to make them high that nobody can look over the ship? can people please be more responsible when you are on a cruise ship. 🙄
Because people are stupid.. There is no way one can fall overboard unless you were doing something stupid or dead drunk resulting in doing something stupid..
is it just me or is every other cruise ship sailing dealing with at least one person overboard this year?
I live 2,000 miles away from the nearest ocean and I can tell you this has been happening more
Well at some point artificial intelligence will become smart enough that ships will have Nets that will know when a person is falling from the ship that fly out and grab the person before they drown to death or hit the water
Solutions
Well at least she was found.
Something is not right here.
Fix? Don’t go near Florida..
What sort of sheep go on these cruises?
Agree!
Cruises are very fun. It’s always dumb people like this that ruin it for everyone else.
Please tell me how people keep falling off cruise ships where the railing is so high you have to climb over it
Good question.
Stupid people tricks and or the new thing is having a last Harrah cruise then committing suicide at the end.
Uh… they climb over it? 😂
I know the last guy who swam and survived was very drunk. I imagine he was playing around and climbing but was so drunk he didn’t realize what he was doing.
Another one? How many people fall off cruise ships per year?
You have to put forth some effort to go over the side of one of those…
Correct
This is going to continue happening until more precautions and safety measures are put into place.
Do you have any idea how hard it is to just “fall” overboard accidentally? It is not possible. Perhaps go on a cruise and see for yourself, ya know do some “research”.
Sounds like your from California, NYC, or Portland…..
If we wrap everything in beaurocracy and make everything 100 percent safe (not possible anyhow), the world becomes a very unpleasant place fast. If we make everything like that for ppl with no common sense it makes it unfair for everyone else and those stupid ppl even more stupid. I guess your a yank from California. Your political mob have made australia into a nanny state…it is really quiet frightening and offensive. Unfortunately you can’t fix stupid.
Rules don’t fix stupid or stop suicide.
There are precautions. People get around them. It’s not the ships fault.
Cruise ship of death.
Excuse my French but why is this b**** smiling and smirking as she’s talking about somebody falling off a ship to their death
FLOATING PETRI DISH 🚢
This is sad 😞. I was just on this cruise ship 2 weeks ago.
Condolences to her family and friends ❤
Drinking should be banned on cruise ships. Except no one would cruise.
Just for the heck of it I searched for a cruise that is alcohol free. The only one is a church run AA cruise. Society has a very serious alcohol problem.
Be careful there at nbc , reporters, Do not report any news that nbc wants to suppress or you know what will happen. Welcome back Miguel, the country is aware that you were unfairly treated for reporting a true story about NBCs beloved pelosi. Whoever made the call to punish you better look out, karma is coming for them.
Drunk on a cruise ship= bad choice
“Falling”
Why isn’t there more surveillance cameras, these companies make millions.
4 day cruise, I was on it for the 7 days before and that l 4 day cruise and every person on the ship know the name of the victim.
Avg people overboard per year is 25 a lot less suicide than on land.
Well there dumb geez. What did he or she expect? Life isn’t a game it’s legit and if you act stupid you win stupid prizes no need to sugar coat anything, exact reason why people die in the first place other than than crap America valuing war and filling their corrupted pockets than healing the world and mental health smh lol
Don’t do stupid things on your balcony or around the Railings and you won’t fall overboard…
Since people are falling off these ships more and more, what are they doing that causes the fall. Are they climbing up on the rail or what are they doing? The last guy that fell off was drunk, so is that the usual reason. There has been one after other the last few years. There are railings all over these ships so one just doesn’t fall overboard. Now this latest victim is dead.
It was reported on our local news that she had committed suicide
@Iris How sad for someone to feel so hopeless to jump off a ship and die.
Was on a cruise years ago when a man purposely jumped over the side when Security was called due to a domestic dispute. Sadly, he was never found. Condolences to the woman’s family and friends.
Fatal injuries? Did they hit a lower deck or hard hit to the water or get bur by something in the water. Why is this seemingly such a common occurrence? How hard is it to fall off a cruise ship?
Why can’t Kari Lake, Mike Lindell, Rudy Giuliani, Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene take a cruise?
It still friggin amazes me when someone “falls” off a cruise ship.
Not only offed themselves but kinda ruined the cruise for everyone else by doing that, shame on them. ☹️
Being too drunk strikes again
Y’all better not do this when i go 😂
The railings are almost chest high all around the ship. And some areas there’s double railings. You have to go through a lot to just “fall”. These things are as tall as buildings. It takes a lot for an accidental fall to be honest. It’s not even equipment failure, like the rails broke or anything.
Rest in peace. 🙏🙏
Didn’t another man recently fall off a cruise ship?? Except he survived for hours before being rescued. Are the railing so low that you can fall over? Or is it rough waves and you get thrown over?? Or?
This ship must have run aground if it entered the Mahakam river
Another reason not to take a cruise vacation 😁 be careful everyone
The things that occur in international waters…
I feel it would be highly unlikely to just fall overboard-more like a person committed suicide or was highly intoxicated or a question of foul play! Sad that these individuals lost their lives in such a horrific way!
I was on this cruise in October and the captain is useless. Trust me. You can see my comment on multiple meraviglia videos. On day of boarding we were LATE. We didnt board until the afternoon. First day of Port we didn’t get to ocean cay until mid day by that time many passengers excursions weren’t refunded. To top it off the ship was under half full just due to the fact that MSC is trash. The crew is garbage too. I was overcharged by them and haven’t yet to be paid back. The front desk are literally illiterate. They’ll act like they don’t know English just for you to get mad.
