False alarm triggers man overboard situation on Disney cruise ship
Hours after departing Nassau, Bahamas, guests sailing aboard the Disney Wish were alarmed when the secret emergency code for "man overboard" was broadcast throughout the ship.
Around 8:00pm on August 26, the Disney Wish began to slow down, and crew members jumped into immediate search and rescue efforts.
According to eyewitnesses, crew members were throwing life rings over the port side of the ship, and at least two rescue boats were deployed.
