YouTube Video Description

What happened on Carnival Triumph in 2013? In this video, we react to the brand-new Netflix documentary that tells the unbelievable story of Carnival Triumph - the ship that left Galveston, Texas in February 2013 for what should have been a fun four-night cruise to Cozumel, Mexico…. but ended up becoming the now-infamous Poop Cruise from hell. What started as a standard Carnival Cruise Line sailing quickly turned into one of the most shocking cruise disasters in history - a Carnival cruise ship from hell. When a fire broke out in the engine room, Carnival Triumph lost all power and was left adrift in the Gulf of Mexico. No engines. No air-con. And definitely no working toilets. It quickly earned its reputation as the Poop cruise ship. This Netflix documentary tells the true story behind the Carnival cruise from hell, and we’ll be reacting to all the jaw-dropping moments - from the initial fire and power loss to the now-legendary scenes that truly earned it the name Poop Cruise. We break down the events day-by-day, meet the key passengers and crew featured in the documentary, and share our thoughts on how this shocking situation unfolded. From sewage-filled corridors to red biohazard bags, hoarded sandwiches, and free alcohol-fuelled chaos, this Carnival cruise ship poop cruise was anything but a typical holiday. You might be wondering: What happened on the Carnival Triumph in 2013? Or why did Carnival Triumph not evacuate guests? We cover all that and more as we react to one of the most infamous events in cruising history - the Poop Cruise from Hell. Is Carnival Triumph still cruising? Carnival Sunrise (formerly Carnival Triumph) is a Destiny-class cruise ship operated by Carnival Cruise Line. In 2019, Carnival Triumph docked in Cadiz, Spain, to undergo a massive $200 million refurbishment. Following the refit, she was renamed Carnival Sunrise. But for many, especially those who lived through it - it will always be remembered as the Poop Cruise ship, or simply, the Carnival Cruise from Hell.
