Heavy winds over the weekend caused chaos for multiple cruise lines over the weekend and multiple injuries to passengers.
At least three ships were affected by the winds, with one incident being caught on camera by a passenger who was filming from his cabin balcony.
The first incident was caused by 69 mph gusts that caused the ropes of an Alaskan cruise to snap, knocking a gangway into the water. The ship, which was later guided back by tugboats, began to slowly drift away from the pier. The gangway fell into the water and was retrieved by a crane.
