OK..I just watched this video 3 times. I am stunned. Absolutely stunned at the ignorance of this woman. Not only was she unaware she needed to head to her room and get her life vest and report to her muster station, she clearly did not even recognize the SHRILLING blasts as an alarm.
Video starts out she is video taping a towel folding class. the 7 short blasts start and you can see the people in the class, children included jump up. She then pans the camera around her and we see on multiple levels people starting to move to their staterooms. She doesn't seem to understand what is causing all this commotion. She spins the camera back around to catch the mass exodus from the class and she says: "Huh, class is oveeeeer. What is going on?"
WTH??? She then wanders out onto the outside deck, passing crew as she goes, filming EVERYBODY ELSE ON THE SHIP HEADING TO THEIR STATEROOM. She seems perplexed when she gets outside, has no idea what is happening, and even asks someone on the deck if this happens often. ????????
"Excuse me sir, does this cruise line often blast the emergency signal of 7 short blasts followed by one long blast, informing us that we need to get our life jacket and report to our muster station, outside of the muster drill??"
Many people on this thread have asked why the crew members she passed did not tell her to do what EVERYBODY ELSE WAS DOING. I say, natural selection.
As I have read some comments of people watching this false alarm, concerns about their kids being in other parts of the ship. May I suggest that as a family, you have your own drill? Make sure everybody knows exactly where to go and when. then have a dry run. If you agree to meet in the stateroom, make sure that everyone has a time limit, in case one person can't get there. Say you were hurt, do you want your 15 year old waiting for you in the stateroom, or at the muster station? Their should be a time limit on waiting in the stateroom.
