Passenger aboard cruise ship apparently tried to climb between the balconies...  

We sure do hear about lots of cruise ship incidents and disappearances.. maybe that's why it sounds fishy to me.. Why would you take a romantic cruise with someone so you could throw them overboard? Or am I just getting cynical? I know I wouldn't be climbing around no decks or over railings..! Poor family! Wonder if there was drinking involved? (Note to self: don't climb over high railings even if drinking.)

I don't know. This sounds pretty iffy to me. I mean I know there are stupid people in this world but this is beyond the normal stupidity and I just can't picture even the biggest idiot doing this. I guess I would have to wonder about this too. I think she either was suicidal or she was pushed.

Hi Mechanicone! I really don't know how to make of it but I don't think that she just climbed over without making sure that she is still on the safer side. But accidents happen and maybe she tripped or something like that. However, there is also a possibility that maybe she has been pushed.
Take Care and God Bless! Happy Mylotting!

I don't imagine the answer to that will ever be certain. I have heard so much about stupid things people do on cruise ships that i think they should hand out a DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS list when they make reservations and give a test on it before they board.

I do not know!

That's terrible. You would think, right? There is the possiblility of her being pushed, but at the same time, I've seen people do some pretty stupid things for their boy/girlfriend.
