Summary:
Near the tides of Tuscany, Italy, on January 13th, 2012, a ship going across the tides drowned under the sea. As 2 women were found where they think should have been an Internet café, were found 55feet and 17meters under the sea. Meanwhile they have found 15 bodies underwater but 17 still not found. Costa Concorodia was the name of the cruise that Franco Gabrielli told people that the cruise was stable. Franco Gabrielli was the head of national civil protection agency. Gabrielli and his agency analyzed data that was left behind the drown and gathered information on what caused the drown. Some people in the agency say that it was the strong tides or a wrong turn. Later they found another women body which was a new bride on the cruise with her family. As I read this article, I felt sorry for the people on the cruise that died because they trusted that the cruise was stable. Not to say that it was Gabrielli’s fault but I think next time on any kind of cruises, they should check more, if it’s REALLY stable and safe to ride before the passengers go on it.
