An elderly American tourist died Tuesday after a ferry carrying cruise ship passengers to the Blue Lagoon Island in the Bahamas began to sink in choppy waters.
The privately operated ferry, which offers cruise ships that call into the Bahamas popular excursions, had been headed from Paradise Island in Nassau to the Blue Lagoon Island when it started to sink.
Terrifying footage captured panicked passengers in orange life jackets clinging onto the two-deck ferry as it tilts dramatically to one side.

Looked like the mini Titanic sinking
3rd world.
And to think those Italian people, wanted me to take a cruise!
I mean Italian people I mean La Cosa Nostra people or the Mafia!
I was on this ferry last year on a free excursion I won on a Carnival cruise we were on.
So sad and can't believe it just went down like that.
remain calm and put on a life jacket ..the worst thing people is panic .. at times like these remain calm and say to yourself everything will be fine
I keep telling peop stay out of the π ocean and sea water π¦ its his domine lord i pray ππ½
The thing is I took that exact boat on an excursion to blue lagoon during my cruise months ago
Kinda sad to see it sink
Expensive boat.
I tell people all the time when you go out of the country, Safety laws and inspections are very laxed to none. Bottom line, your Safety depends on you. Have fun be safe. Prayers to that family
