In theory, #1 is covered if you happen to fall overboard from the funnel deck (yes, I know that that would be extremely unlikely given the position of said deck on the ship, but work with me here!)

Attach a whistle and a mirror to your life jacket while still on board so that you can quickly signal rescuers in an emergency. Do you think this tip has ever saved a life?

 

Doesn't matter --- if I fell overboard, I'd die of fright long before anything else killed me.

Hmmm ... Someone *could* possibly fall from the Funnel Deck, you know ... *especially* if they were focusing their digital camera or cell phone camera and weren't watching where they were going! :eek:

Number 2 is a joke if you fall overboard. I cant imagine accidently falling overboard and then finding something in the ocean to hold on to... What do you do if there is nothing to hold on to? Scary.
