Woman dies from fall on cruise ship in Gulf

48-year-old woman died from a fall on a cruise ship operated by Carnival
Corp., the company said.

The woman, whose name was not released by the cruise line, was seen
jumping
from one of the ship's upper outside

decks and landing on a cabin balcony today, the Miami-based company said
in
a news release.

The ship, called the Carnival Conquest, was concluding a seven-day
Caribbean
cruise that made stops in Montego

Bay, Grand Cayman and Cozumel. It returned to Galveston on Sunday. The
company said the woman was travelling

with her spouse. Carnival did not provide any other details.

Cruise passenger John Bayer, of Purmela, said he could see the woman
lying
three levels below where he was on the

ninth level. He said he did not see the woman's fall, which he said
occurred
about 3 p.m. as the ship was entering the

Gulf of Mexico. Carnival said it has notified authorities. The U.S. Coast
Guard did not immediately return phone calls

seeking details of its investigation.

It has to be the booze. No other reasonable explanation for people jumping
overboard. Ban the booze and people won't be dying during a cruise.
Its that simple.

You are discounting the "Nut factor." It is not the booze, but a
predetermined reason for the person the kill themself. Being that suicide
is not rational, one has to be a bit Nuts to kill themself.
