ROGUE WAVE DAMAGES CRUISE SHIP FATALLY INJURING PASSENGERS ,CRUISE NEWS
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator reports on a tragic accident involving the Viking Polaris, a Norwegian owned expedition cruise ship that was launched in 2022. While sailing approximately 3,200 miles off the coast of Buenos Aires in rough weather, the vessel was struck by a rogue wave. The impact shattered thick glass along the port side of the ship. This event resulted in injuries to four passengers and the death of a fifth passenger. The creator notes that the injured passengers did not sustain life threatening injuries and received treatment on board. An investigation is currently being conducted by the cruise company and authorities in Argentina. The ship has been taken into dry dock for repairs while the cruise line arranges travel for the passengers. The creator explains that rogue waves are unpredictable because they occur when two waves crest together to double in size and can strike from unexpected directions. The video concludes by expressing condolences to the family of the deceased and noting the overwhelming power of nature.
