It was supposed to be a simple tourist ferry ride to Blue Lagoon Island in the Bahamas. But the excursion turned tragic as a double-decker tourist boat took on water in rough seas. The craft tilted sideways and began to sink, as terrified passengers donned orange life jackets and jumped overboard. Nearby boats rescued those passengers. One American died in the ordeal, and two other people were taken to a hospital.

OMG, that poor elderly lady who died... just awful!! Hope the other two that were injured make a full recovery!

The danger in a situation like this is people becoming out of control from overreacting. Super manageable and people need to stay calm.

Oh man that really sucks! I hope they can get their money back from the excursion and sorry to the family who lost a loved one.

People who panic in times of crisis scare me more than drowning at times.

My heart goes out to the family of the old woman who died but I'm not sure why so many people were freaking out like that. It was a sunny day, they had life jackets, and the water was crystal clear. All they had to do was float there and wait for rescue. If they were in blue-black waters in the middle of a raging storm it'd make more sense but unless they were worried about their phones, it does seem a bit of an overreaction.

The biggest fear is the scare of the sea. Respect the sea nothing is safe once u in the sea.😢

I want to be completely honest. Getting a life jacket on and knowing how to swim with how fast that was sinking would not be that hard to escape from. I would be more concerned about my phone getting wet.

That's one of my worst fears because I'm terrified of the ocean I hate being on a boat of any kind but to have it start sinking and I have to get in the water would be a freaking nightmare

Ngl a bit of an overreaction. Theres boats all around then and the water is fine. Not like titanic were it was falling apart and the water was frigid.

We were on one of those ferries for a different excursion to the same place a few months ago, that’s terrifying. Praying for those injured, the woman who passed and all her loved ones as well as possibly traumatized passengers. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
