A passenger aboard the world’s biggest cruise ship fell over the edge of an infinity pool this week, in what is the vessel’s second incident in the last seven days. Shocking footage, taken from the Icon of the Seas’ Hideaway deck and posted on Instagram, shows a person seemingly balanced on the glass side of a pool before they tip forward over the edge. Sunday’s post, on Instagram account Only In Florida, said: “A passenger fell over the edge of the infinity pool located on Deck 15 onto the deck below. No other injuries were reported. The Icon of the Seas returned back to its home port in Miami, Florida after the two incidents occurred this week.” A Royal Caribbean spokesperson told People: “A guest accidentally fell onto the pool gutter after reaching over to retrieve their sunglasses. Our crew immediately attended to the guest and fortunately, the guest did not experience any injuries.” They did not confirm the date of the incident. It is the second incident on the mammoth ship this week, after a crew member died after going overboard. They died in the water near the Bahamas on Thursday, despite a rescue attempt from the ship’s crew.
