4 crew members were doing a lifeboat training drill and one crew member was killed and the other three injured. So sad...

Dreadful news.

 

Sometimes we overlook some of the dangers.

OP, news been posted 3 days ago both here and on CC's Bermuda forum - are you or someone you know currently onboard the BA; and, just found out about it ? One passenger on the BA posted that those onboard had no idea about the accident, unless someone happened to witnessed it and/or read the local new on Royal Gazette (which also mentioned that there're 4,300 pax on this particular sailing ... and, that's a "low" number on a typical summer cruise out of NYC. It's usually closer to 4,700 to 4,900 or even more.)

 

One of the crew member had been flown to the U.S. for medical treatment while the other 2 had been discharged from the hospital back to the ship.
