(Satire) Wrong Cruise to be on! Plane accidentally empties toilet tank over cruise ship

*This story was published on a satirical website, so the story is false, but it was funny enough to share and give us a chance to share our cruise experiences*
   If' you've ever taken a cruise and had something go wrong you should read this (fake) but somewhat funny story. It's really unusual to be knocked out with a frozen chunk of poo, but in this story, people on this particular cruise line experienced that.
  OUR EXPERIENCES:  Fortunately, on the cruises we've been on, we've just 1) been stuck going in circles for hours when an anchor fell off a cog, and they finally cut it loose and 2) had drunken party goers making noise every night and 3) Rob got sea sick (like many others when we ran into very rough weather. The bottom line is that it can always be worse!  



Here's the FAKE NEWS STORY that has been going around. -

Plane accidentally empties toilet tank over cruise ship, 23 injured

A Boeing 777 airplane belonging to the Taiwanese airline EVA Air, dumped human excreta midair while traveling from Japan to Hawaii. Unfortunately, the content of the toilet tank was jettisoned into the sky while the plane was flying over the cruise liner Lady of the Pacific, which was hit by “large chunks of blue ice”.

Hundreds of passengers were standing on the top deck at the time, and many were hit by ice projectiles weighing up to 10 lbs.

Janis Garrison, a passenger who witnessed the whole incident, says the ice appeared very suddenly and took everyone by surprise.

25-year old Jason Matthews was hit by a 12-lb chunk of ice, suffered a severe concussion.
Five passengers were critically injured and 18 more were severely hurt, but the ship’s medical staff intervened rapidly and was able to stabilize all of the victims.

25-year old Jason Matthews was hit by a 12-lb chunk of ice and suffered a severe concussion. He still has no memory of the incident.

The ship was rapidly redirected to Hawaii to undergo some repair and to allow the injured passengers to obtain better medical care. Some of them could need weeks of care before they can go back to their regular life.

According to international law, dumping of lavatory waste is illegal, so EVA Air could also face some major fines. Despite regulations, many Asian airliners continue to jettison the content their toilet tanks over the Pacific Ocean, and even over land.
