CRUISE SHIP DOWN

Instead of leading a rescue, much of the ship’s crew fled, abandoning 581 passengers to chaos. In an extraordinary twist, it was the entertainers; musicians,
a magician and fellow performers who rose as unlikely heroes. Battling terrifying seas and darkness, they organised evacuations as helicopters and lifeboats
worked through the night.

Against all odds, every passenger and crew member survived. As the Oceanos vanished beneath the waves, the rescue became one of the most astonishing survival stories in maritime history. This is their story.
