It happened a few years ago, I think it was the NCL Dawn. They had a bow and stern thruster problem that caused the ship to tip 20 or 30 degrees to one side, then it snapped back. A bunch of folks were injured.

They said on the news tonight (Channel 9 WFTV) that it was a 15 degree tip, and it did snap back. This was it's 4th trip, and no problems until this time. It wasn't old equipment.

Also, they said that night's movie was "Titanic"!
