How many do you normally lose on a cruise? 30? 40?

I’d be like that time Al Bundy jumped out of the plane without a parachute laughing all the time.

Silly Freeper.
I NEVER read the article.

I assumed because she was on a large cruise ship she was both fat and drunk. It is pretty hard to fall overboard. You would have to climb up on the railing. Which is probably 4’ high.

If it was a Trump themed cruise the headline would have been “TRUMP KILLS GRANDMOTHER AT SEA!”

Cruises are full of serial killers.

All railing in cruise ship are 5 foot high. How the heck can anyone fall over?

I am booked on my 54th cruise on Dec 9th on Voyager of the Seas ship. Only recall 2 incidents of a person falling out. Both were drunk and obviously climbed over the 5 foot high railing.

Allure of the Seas is a beautiful ship. I cruised on it just couple of months ago. Loved the musical Mama Mia in main theater on ship. Singers were better than original ABBA which I love. Agnetha is a superstar.

Only because people buy drink packages which allow up to 15 drinks every day. It is impossible to fall over the 5 feet high railings unless one climbs over.

Apparently, there are SO many deaths on cruise ships the that never get reported. They really aren’t accountable to any government, so can just sweep them under the rug

As the spokesman for Royal Horton Cruise Lines says:

"If you have any crime to report, just tell it to the nearest uniformed authority figure. But, just to be clear, they're not cops. They work for us. When we are at sea, there are no laws."

"That can't possibly be true!" objects the would-be passenger.

"Oh, it's truer than you think. Royal Horton is incorporated in Liberia.

Have a fraternity brother who got blasted and purposefully jumped off his moving cruise ship, somehow thinking he could swim back to the ship’s boat launch area. They stopped the ship, found him, and got him back in. He was about 35 back then and hasn’t had a drink since - and is now one of the strongest warriors for Jesus I know. Sometimes, a shock to the entire nervous system can change your life... if you survive it.

I prefer dining room whenever it is open. Also I make it a point to walk 3 miles on ship everyday. That is fairly easy to do on large ships such as Allure of the Seas. 2 rounds on jogging track = 1 mile. I do gain couple of pounds on each cruise, but by walking a lot, it is mostly muscles gained, which I lose quickly after returning home.
