New Netflix documentary details Carnival Triumph disaster

Now there's a documentary. A film from the Netflix Trainwreck series revisits the 2013 fire and power outage on the Carnival Triumph. It was the ship that launched a thousand headlines.

What Was the "Poop Cruise"? On Feb. 10, 2013, what was supposed to be the final day of a four-day voyage, the Carnival Triumph was on its way back from Cozumel, Mexico, to Galveston, Texas—carrying 3,143 passengers and 1,086 crew members—when a fire broke out in the engine room shortly before 5:30 a.m.

For those who may have missed the headlines in 2013: a two-day transit from Galveston, Texas, to Cozumel, Mexico turned disastrous when an engine room fire struck the Carnival Triumph and stranded its 4,100-odd passengers and crew in the Gulf of Mexico.
