Cruise ship captain Wendy Williams rates eight cruise ship disasters in movies and television shows for realism.
Williams breaks down how cruise ships deal with hitting an iceberg, rogue waves, and tsunamis in "The Poseidon Adventure" (1972); the sinking scene in "Titanic" (1997), starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet; and the capsized vessel in "Poseidon" (2006). She explains how cruise ships address health issues and passenger safety on board in "The Simpsons" S23E19 (2012), the boat jail scene in "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" S11E9 and E10 (2016), and the cruise ship holiday nightmare in "Triangle of Sadness" (2022), with Woody Harrelson. Williams also looks at the plausibility of cruise ship systems being corrupted in "Deep Rising" (1998), and the shipwreck scene in "Speed 2: Cruise Control" (1997), with Willem Dafoe and Sandra Bullock. She compares fictional depictions to real-life cruise disasters, such as the Diamond Princess cruise ship, and shares tips for travelers.
Williams has been in the maritime industry for over 30 years, with her experience spanning from passenger vessels to the fishing industry. She has been a cruise ship captain for about five years, and she is the first Canadian woman to captain a major cruise ship brand, Virgin Voyages.
