Passengers described the moment as terrifying as glass shattered, tables toppled over and chairs crashed on to the floor while the ship continued to tilt further
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — At least eight passengers aboard a Norweigan cruise ship have been taken to hospitals in Florida after an ‘unexpected’, strong gust of wind tilted the ship to the left.
Samantha Foster was watching a movie in bed on the ship, with her sister sleeping near her, when she first felt the tilt. “It was unsettling at first,” she told ABC News. “Then I started to panic.” Roy Fer, who had previously worked on the Norweigan for three years, told ABC, he had ‘never experienced anything like this.’ He was sitting at a bar with his boyfriend when he noticed everything fall 45 degrees sideways. “We had to leave the bar and head out to the atrium while things kept falling,” he said.
