- The family of an Indiana toddler who died earlier this month after falling 11 stories from a docked cruise ship are desperate to stop what happened to their daughter from happening to another family. Chloe Wiegand died July 7 when she fell 150 feet from the Royal Caribbean ship Freedom of the Seas. Initial reports had claimed the grandfather dangled the child out the window but the family’s lawyer is placing the blame on the cruise line for having an open window in a children's play area. #InsideEdition
The Grandfather must feel like the worst human being in the world. I feel bad for everyone in this situation. RIP the baby girl who died too soon
Tofu Productions don’t say died say passed away it’s more respectful 👌
Sophie An how so? the comment was respectful. Leave it alone.
Ashley Marie. I’m sorry but I’m very emotional and it makes me sad I’m sorry I couldn’t help it
Sophie An it's sad and I get it.. if this was my child I wouldn't be able to live anymore.. such a freak accident.
Unfortunately there's no way of beating around the bush though.. she did die way too soon.. she's now her mother and father's guardian angel..
Ashley Marie. Yes
Honestly, I don’t see how that was the Cruise ships fault, but my heart goes out to the family.
Jackie Chi 💯
Why have an open window in the children's lounge 11 stories up
Granfather thought it had glass
Ethan Joseph to let fresh air in. Simple. Children should be accompanied by a responsible adult at all times.
Same here Jackie here is my opinion I feel awful for them. The child did not fall out of an open window on her own. She couldnt reach it on her own. Therefore, the fault is with the person who put her up there. I cant imagine the pain he is dealing with. Its a sad situation but not the cruise lines fault.
i honestly wouldn’t blame anyone, it was a pure accident
She just wants money
@@Sav-lt2xc a what..?
Accident? Dude, it was a DEATH,
UmAIIy a death which was an accident.
you have to remember that shes in shock and greif
“Don’t open the window, get a fan”. How about just not putting the kid on the window in the first place?
@Sim with a Whim window should have had a safety screen. Im sure every window in your house has a screen
He didn't know there wasn't a window there? All glass on every cruise ship i've been on is tinted green and covered with salt sea spray. If you can see through it.. there probably isn't a window there
t1gl1t I seen clear windows on ferry boats I once made the same mistake thinking a window was shut but it wasn’t
@@Titus4Jesus mine doesn't most of my neighbors dont either
What's peculiar is that they had the lawsuit papers already made up and signed before their daughter was even buried. Something funny here.
I was quite literally there, on the ship the day this happened. This did not occur in a “kids area.” It was on deck 11 near the outer edge of the cruise ship. It was actually near the smoking area, which is why the windows can be opened. It’s the ONLY part of the ship like this. The only way for a child to fall is by an adult lifting them up to the railing.
Joshua Danger witness
Joshua exactly
Well there you go..... This explains everything!!!!!
Such a terrible tragedy. I think we all know that it was a horrible accident.
Lily Pedroza I did not see the impact. Thankfully
I know she is hurting but does she know how ventilation even works, the open window was not on the floor where her daughter could reach it
Exactly! It’s not like the little girl was able to reach the window by herself. So to me it’s totally the grandfather fault
also to add deck 11 is for smoking which means windows can be open unlike any other floors
Just like it would be unfair to call the grandfather a murderer, so is blaming the cruise
True its a series of unfortunate events 💔
@Sim with a Whim all about the money so she can bail her father out of jail for a horrible crime he commited
Open window in children's play area with dangerous drop outside it. Shouldn't happen!
@@SweetLilyofPeace grandfather sitting child on ledge without checking if it is safe should happen either
@@saulgoodman3305 I didn't say it should. If you read my other comment I said no matter what he did or didn't do the window should not have been open in the first place. That makes no sense to me at all.
The cruise line is not to blame. Open windows should be allowed. It's a window for a reason.
They could of at least had a safety latch, after all is it in the kids play area.
@@dragonslife3917 the grand father decided to put her their he should of made sure it was safe befour i dont think its the cruise lines fault dont get me wrong im nit blaming the grand dad but the cruisline shouldent be blamed
@@mcnugget512 I think there is blame on both sides, but accidents do happen he doesn't need the world judging him when he already will feel awful
@@dragonslife3917 ye i understand but my point is if your on a ship 11 stories high dont put chinldren next to windos
Your windows in your house have screens dont they?
Can't sue Grandpa for millions so they sue the cruise line. SMH.
Just wow. You people amaze me. Smh
Shame on you.
@@carlyanhel3457 Shame on them....Always blaming someone for there own negligence.
I feel like there is some truth to this comment.. I doubt the grandpa would of done it on purpose but he should of had a proper grip on her wether or not there was glass on the window or not.. you can’t blame the cruise line it was simply a freak accident but they just want someone to point the finger at..
Gabrielle Pearson it was t the children’s play area,idk what they were talking about.. it’s actually a smoking area she fell to her death smh 🤦♀️
I think she is in denial because it’s her dad. She cannot blame the cruise for her fathers choice
Window should have had a screen. Im sure the windows in your house have screens
@@Titus4Jesus The windows in my house dont have screens and most homes in the US do not have screens because it looks tacky.
But, I dont think anyone in my house is silly enough to pick a kid up just to look out of the window.
Exactly!!!! Like come on dude. Even if it was windows closed how was he not even thinking they could break or open if unlocked.
@@themagnoliaproject864 so when you open the window to get some fresh air you also let in flys and insects.
The Magnolia Project most homes in the us do have screens tho? Lol
DO NOT try to turn this on the cruise ship! This event was just a tragic accident!
"Accidents" happen because of negligence or oversight. It's where precautions come from (ie: don't text and drive, wear a seatbelt). There shouldn't be an open window in a children's area. Children fall from windows all the time because people can't be bothered to take precautions.
Robert Garcia the grandfathers fault I hope he remembers it for the rest of his life
CrNessata It’s impossible for a toddler to reach that window unless there is something that allows for her to climb. In this case the grandpa lifted her up.
If a child fell out of your house window, would you sue the realtors?
@@CadaverQTIt is NOT a child's area. The Child's area (H2O Zone) is in the center of that deck well away from and separated from the open windows by several rows of adults on lounge chairs and a busy walking path. .
@@DaMarshmellow What an evil thing to say to someone in immense pain. Is that the kind of hateful things you grew up hearing when you were hurt or sad from an irreversible mistake you made? My God that's sick.
Lady, it was your dads fault. The first reports said he was swinging her next to the open window then he lost his balance and dropped her. Your changing the story for a law suit.
They never changed their story I watched nearly all the videos regarding this story and its always been the same. It was a mistake, they dont blame her dad but like they said he is inconsolable meaning he blames himself
LizzyLove Elizabeth he blames himself because it was his fault, no one else’s
She can not sue her father for his mistake so she blindly lashes out at the cruise line. Her horrible grief is not letting her see things clearly. I just do not understand trying to capitalise on this horrible event when there was no way for a child to even reach the window.
@@sky_nicole1962 their story did change from the original story they told before all the videos , thanks to their lawyer .
Laura Nasewytewa for starters it was damn cement not water so no they didn’t jump in ????? Secondly hardly think they can afford to travel etc but would kill their adored child for money Omgsh shame on you. Disgusting
Not the cruise lines fault. It was an accident. A horrific accident. My heart, strength, prayers and love goes out to the grandfather. 🙏🏽☹️♥️
The cruise line is trying to sue them for not watching the child we should all agree that that is not fair
Bo the grandfathers fault for putting her on a open window
@@lshsiuakdd Okay so tell me you have never walked into a sliding door because you thought it was open, or seen/ heard of anyone who has done so. Its common and was an obvious mistake.
Yh but there should be some type of warning put in place saying that the window was open because the window was really high up
T H A T G O O D J U J U anyone with half a brain can tell whether or not a window is open on a cruise ship, the windows tend to be a bit darker so the heat won’t go all the way through, plus the wind and smell of the sea had to have been going through. Also, he sat her on the ledge so at that point you have to know that there was no window there
Really sorry for the loss really sad but blaming the cruise line is bull.
When something like this happens it’s unbelievable so people seek justice even if it’s not someone’s fault it’s how some people cope
SuperPunjabi12345 wym it’s bull it really isn’t it’s a play area where would their be no glass like slow or what
You’re ridiculous if you think that cruise line isn’t to blame
RIP open windows next generation won't know what a open window is....can't even open a door to your hotel balcony these days
@Nilly K ye
Clearly this is not the cruise ships fault, but I don’t blame the parents too much for thinking it is. They’re trying to cope with unimaginable grief.
Exactly
Human 101
Exactly. Any decent person would.
Alot of people say this but when an opportunity for a large cash windfall presents itself... I was the executor of an estate & experienced the ugliness of things when money was involved.
@Annie497 I am so terribly sorry for your loss.
I suppose the reality of knowing your own father caused this would be hard to take.
I know this sounds bad, but it's the parents responsibility to take care of their kids, and this mother is scapegoating the cruise line for compensation or escaping legal problems.
I'm not sure if she's crying for the ignorant old man or the little girl. Either that its crocodile tears
Vishak the little girl was spending time with her grandfather which is normal, grandparents spend time with the grandchildren all alone all the time
Vishak it doesn’t sound bad, I agree with you.
Yes it was an accident on grandpa’s part, but what did he expect to put a kid near a window?
Its no one’s fault really. Just a tragic accident. Anyone with a normal sight could see whether there is a window, old man could not seen as good as he was. If the window is not open, the place could be like an oven and some could pass out in the ball pit...much worse.
Vishak
Exactly.
Grieving people in situations like this always look for someone to blame. I don’t feel it’s the cruise ship fault. The grandfather should have never held that baby in the open window of a cruise ship. A horrible accident caused by poor judgment.
A open window with a bunch of kids 11 stories
@@sgdynasty1042 Well, the windows were too high for the kids to reach unless being held by an adult.
TriNurse he thought the window was closed and it wasn’t it was an accident but how was he to know the window was open ??
@@theonlyivan7610 By looking at the window to see if it was open or closed before putting a childs life in danger.
Magnolia … makes perfectly good sense to most people. The window is not at "kid level" and the railing that he plunked her down on is there as a safety railing to keep people -- including 18 month olds with a window-banging fetish -- from dropping cameras, cellphones, eyeglasses, etc., and to maintain a safe distance from the windows, should they be opened. The railing is not to facilitate window-banging against the pane by toddlers who would be put at risk of injury by doing so.
I don’t think this is the cruise ships fault at all.
Exactly. Like the mans old. He shouldnt have put her out there knowing he wasnt the strongest. Like come one. At least have have a strong 30 year old adult watching the grandpa
Unfortunately not everything can be baby proof it’s up to the parents to watch for dangers for the protection of their children
@@IntrusiveDuck he dropped her. It has nothing to do with how strong he was
Rebecca Van Luyk she was lifted up, her alone wouldn’t be able to reach it
Lisa Kida but another kid could be able to
Funny because it literally was 100% not the cruise ships fault
The negligent adults always want to sue someone these days
The cruise ships aren’t suppose to have windows that open , that’s a faulty window cruise fault
Harlynn2194 they’re allowed to. It’s perfectly safe. I was on that boat in April and honestly it’s almost impossible for even a tall DRUNK adult to fall out of the window because they’re so high. You’d literally have to TRY to fall out if you’re an adult OR be lifted if you’re a child. This child was lifted. Their own fault.
Not really "funny" in any way
Natascha Sasse not saying the kid dying was funny I never did. I was saying it was funny that the parents blamed it on the ship
”lifted her up on a railing...” ”thought it was glass,” there is a common denominator here, and it's not the cruise ship.
queenbeethatme100
Exactly
This is just an accident. This wasn't ANYBODY'S fault.
Edit: I say this because the grandfather was colorblind and the windows of the cruise were tinted. Him being severely colorblind made it difficult for him to see the window was open. I agree I still wouldn't have put a baby up to the window, but he has visual impairments that made it difficult for him to see a danger that would be obvious in a typical situation
Edit 2: Yeah now that I’ve seen the security camera footage it was the grandfather’s fault. It was an accident, but it was reckless negligence
True
THANK YOU
So just because it was an accident, means no one at fault??? What if you had a kid and someone very irresponsibly and foolishly accidentally dropped your kid to their death? “It was just an accident” Show some damn empathy for the family of this baby that died unreasonably.
If no one were ever at fault for accidents, people wouldn’t be getting fired, and past mistakes wouldnt be fixed. There has to be accountability for something as tragic as a foolishly negligent death such as dangling a helpless baby outside a window. That baby has trust in the adult holding them. It is the responsibility of the adult to protect the baby, do whatever they can do that is in their capacity. A baby is defensless. They rely on others. There is no excuse for that man dropping a baby outside of a window. That is an extremely stupid way to accidentally kill a freaking defensless human being.
It was the fault of that stupid grandfather and to an extent the cruise liner.

Mom forgets to buckle child's car seat and sues the manufacturer after the child reportedly hit the back of the front seat during a traffic stop.
Ikr🤣
Jetfire97 Exactly 🙄
It's really sad but she can not admit that it was her grandfathers fault. The cruise had the window open as it was hot and it's not safe putting a baby on a high pole
He didn’t know it was open, no sane person would put a baby on railing without thinking it was not open, end of story, the cruise line should not have had the window open to begin with.
Alexa Levon Well damn that’s even WORSE and didn’t help the argument!! If you didn’t KNOW if it were open or closed, then WHY and the hell would you take the chance and put the child!?! DUH!! 🙄 (Not toward you per se)
tonshmar He thought it was a closed window. He didn’t think he would take a chance.
tonshmar And using emojis in a serious comment makes you look stupid.
AC stupid
This is really sad but this isn’t the cruise lines fault.
I don't get how a mother who's supposed to be mourning her child could so quickly go and get an attorney to sue a company.
Samay Alvarez Exactly
That’s the saddest part. Why you gotta try and PROFIT OFF OF YOUR CHILDS ACCIDENTAL DEATH.
I would imagine she's also feeling helpless and upset that this happened and wants someone to be responsible but may feel conflicted about blaming the grandpa. I think sometimes when people want what they feel is justice they feel the only route is to sue. Otherwise they feel like they're just accepting what happened which is hard to do. They want to feel like they're doing something and taking action for the daughter.
@Herby Herb Right I think interview is what guilty people do. The grandfather is guilty.
you have been hacked loser What kind of person mourns by having lawyers and papers ready before the burial?
I feel terrible for them, but she was placed on a rail where she shouldn't have been. Not cruise line fault.
Lilly B not true it was a window and go was he to know the window was open
@@maddyniman703 why would he put the child up there in the first place?? regardless, it isn't the cruise line's fault that the grandfather made a bad decision. my heart goes out to the family, but you can't deny that the grandfather made a horrible mistake.

@@fnfbehdjkddk hi army❤
UPDATE: A judge has ordered the arrest of the grandfather after reviewing the evidence against him. He is accused of negligent homicide and is being held on $80,000 bond.
To be honest he didn't not mean for it to happen, it was a pure accident 💯💯
@@Turki-968 apparently it didn’t happen in the kids area it happened in the smoking area hence why the window was open
@@mg-zj9yr even if it was in the play area, the window was too high for her to reach it all by herself! He picked her up, made a mistake and dropped her. He has no one to blame but himself, he’s at fault although he probably never wanted to intentionally drop her.
it was an accident, he got probation. He is also colour blind.
Omg i feel so bad for the grandfatherq
The ships fault? WATCH YOUR KIDS AT ALL TIMES!!!! The window was high up. The grandfather picked her up. So there’s no other way that baby would of climbed.🤷🏽♀️
Its her OPINION but I agree with u
Exactly, that's like getting hit by a car and blaming the car alone, it's sad that happend to them but in my opinion if the gpa wouldn't have had her near an open window that would not have happend. I honestly don't believe that the gpa had no idea the window was open.💁
CatACor exactly,you must keep your child supervised,but don’t put a baby on a rails on a 11-floored cruise ship.
Even if the baby did climb up, uhh PARENTS SHOULD BE WATCHING THEIR KID!! Lol if a dog jumps over a fence and bites a pedestrian walking by is that the pedestrian’s fault no it’s the owner for not watching them
I 💯 agree with you!
I agree 100%
It's sad but YOU CAN NOT blame the cruise line it's not hard 2 see if a window is open or not
Exactly!!
"It wasnt water down there, it was concrete" at that height, if it had been water, she would have probably died too, it would have been like hitting concrete. So sad
Died on impact of water
Even if she managed to somehow survive the fall, she would have drowned way before someone could have gotten to her. The only good thing is she didn’t suffer.
queenbeethatme100 yes I know, I’m just saying if she somehow miraculously survived the impact, she would have drowned anyway.
But I think the mother is saying that concrete is a more painful death cuz you're literally bleeding out
Remember that kid that fell into Harambe's home? Parents need to take responsibility and stop blaming others.
My 3yo has been on 3 cruise ships so far. Hasn't died yet. Because I'm not M.J. hanging my kid out a window
It was harambes fault for being in his enclosure
SK_Archy -mom
I have customers like this where I work. It’s always someone else’s fault. Can’t believe she’s trying to profit off her babies accidental death.
@@TheRealCamelT right. Its disturbing
So... they're suing the cruise line because the grandpa thought "there was glass"... ok...
I feel for this family, but I bet that story was fabricated. How do you not know the window is open? I think the grandfather just lost his grip on the poor baby. Lifted her up and got close to the window and the entire thing was just an awful accident.
Michelle Shen right? always somebody else’s fault
@@outlawjodiewales9295 I almost experienced the same thing with my 2 yr old granddaughter. The glass is always so clean that when a window is open it creates an optical illusion that the glass is there..same as the other closed windows. On our cruise..the windows all appeared closed..but one was open. My 2 yr old granddaughter stood on a chair to look down at the water..through the glass..as she had done every morning. We were sitting inches away and an open window..alongside a bunch of closed windows looks exactly the same. It is an optical illusion. My granddaughter nearly fell but my daughter grabbed her dress and pulled her back. We reported it to the cruise line (Carnival) and were casually told that one window was opened to prevent the others from fogging. I said.."But we cannot tell when a window is open". The staff member responded.."No..you can't so be careful". So..they know!!
Budder Kupp the window was open on a cruise ship. Do you know that winds as frequent as can be. Even if the shop is on dock, the wind will definitely get in through an open window. I don’t think the grandfather thought there was glass, he was negligent. And try to pass the blame to others.
And..if the family's lawyer wanted me..I would fly to Florida and testify to what I KNOW to be the truth: Optical illusion effect..WARNING SIGNS NEEDED!!
I wish this was fake, imagine falling down that depth. And she couldn’t do anything about it. She was such a beautiful baby girl. And imagine coming off that ship without your baby girl..
I feel terrible for the grandfather :(
Why? He put a toddler on a thin railing 150 ft high. It's completely his fault and he needs to own up for being a raging moron and RUINING this poor family. He should be in jail for sheer negligence.
Why? he wasnt the one that died. I know he must feel guilty about what happened but I think its stupid to let child near a window that high
Well, he must feel terrible.
Jesus Christ people, humans make mistakes. You people will never know how awful it will feel knowing you killed your granddaughter. He will never sleep well again. I wish that man and everyone in the family peace. Absolutely horrific.
Tuesday it was a mistake
Don't blame anyone if you can't blame the last person who held her.
Oops butter fingers.
johnny gladstone 💀
@@Kermit46 💀
So tired of parents who blame others for their poor judgement.
fr they could put a child over a railing that 200 feet in the air and theyl blame the cruise ship for the "railing being to low" like its not common sense to dangle your child over a railing
It’s not the cruise line’s fault. Why wouldn’t they have a window? It gets hot on cruises. I get they’re upset, but it’s no one’s fault especially the cruise line’s.
It was 0% the cruise ships fault they’re just looking for a payday
If a stranger had her baby near that window and the incident occurred........I bet should would blame the stranger.
The mother would press charges.
Lee Walter well yeah no stranger touches my child.
Lee Walter
Oh for sure.
Sorry to say it, but DO NOT BLAME THE CRUISE SHIP!!!! It is not there fault.
That's sad how the mom is trying to profit off of her deceased daughter's passing. No amount of money would ever bring her back.
Leave the cruise ship alone, its innocent
The whole thing makes no sense what so ever...makes me wonder if it was an accident
I wouldn’t see who would put a baby on a railing period. Idk how they’re going to try to blame the cruise ship and get money. I don’t understand this.
Elibobelly Sandoval you’ll be very surprised but I work for a major airline and parents everyday put little ones on the window ledge to watch the planes and ground crew from 3/4 stories above ground...all while banging on the window! Parents it’s still just glass!! Get it together!!
Elibobelly Sandoval u right she should of been watching her baby
Elibobelly Sandoval and why wouldn’t u hold the baby
Exactly, one time I went to a pier at one of the beaches here in Cali and you best believe while being up there with my mom and my two little sisters we held onto them tightly and wouldn’t even go near the railing. A kid could easily fall off or slip through the opened railing.
Laura Nasewytewa
Thank you. This is how I see it also.
The window was UP, it was HIGH UP. No child would be able to jump out of it. This is 100% not the cruise’s fault.
If it were an open window 1 foot off the ground I could understand but a window 4 feet off rhe ground? Not the cruise ships fault.
Huh?
Sebastian Perez lol same
@@andrewzhao2728 saying the baby couldn't have fallen out a window that high if someone wasn't holding it up against it. Its not like the baby walked through an open window right on the ground. It was a pretty high up window. Like 4 feet off the ground.
This particular incident was not the cruise line's fault. If a child had climbed out themselves, then maybe. However, the grandfather held the baby up to an open window eleven stories above concrete. The company cannot be blamed for this.
If that's her maternal grandfather why is the mother calling him Sam? Totally not the cruise lines fault. I hope they do not get a dime. It is absolutely disgusting for them to capitalize on this tragedy
He is the stepgrandfather, presumably the second husband of her mother.
I heard that too!!!!
We all knew they were going to SUE the cruise line for the grandfather's idiotic actions that killed his granddaughter!
MD D it was pure accident on the grandfather but I mean I guess
MD D Shut the hell up
@SB: It wasn’t an ‘accident’; it was negligence. He is responsible for her death and should be in jail.
KING I He’s gonna suffer depression from the death of her grandchild. It’s inevitable.
The guy should be in prison for neglect and involuntary manslaughter
In my opinion no one is to blame it was a freak accident
For the mother to look out and see her child splattered on the concrete...
The pain, the grief, the mother must’ve felt at that time must’ve been unimaginably horrible...
Plus, the people standing down there, too!
The word splattered made me laugh a little 🤦🏾♀️
Malaisah Trophy wow. You’re sick.
J D LMFAO shutup I’m not
Sorry but it was 100% the grandfathers fault, not the cruise line.
A C I’ve been on many cruises and they do leave windows open up high...you can most definitely tell the difference. Why on earth would you pick a baby up and put them on a window ledge in the first place??! It was a horrific accident and they just want to blame someone other than the grandfather.
A C ... you must be a stunned human being!!!!!!
It is nobody’s fault ! It was a accident, they happen all the time and sadly could also happen to YOU in so many different ways . This blame game is very sad
@@Materialgirl_3 It wouldn’t happen to me because I wouldn’t place my child on a window like that.
Exactly
definitely want to see how this lawsuit turns out... no way is the cruise line going to be found guilty for the parents own negligence.
This is incredibly sad 😥 my heart goes out to the mother
And father
Alabaster Pringles she looks so fake. Now she’s exploiting the baby’s death by sueing the cruise
@@FlaccidPlatypus she's in pain, stop it
They did it on purpose so they could sue
I don’t think it’s the cruise ship fault I think it’s the grandfather fault because he let her near the window without putting a close eye on her and I also think that the mother really can’t sue the cruise company for what the grandfather did
Now we need a warning sign that a window is open. Stupidity
The grandpa killed the kid not the cruise line. Take responsibility instead of blaming it on others.
Exactly
Snake he never
He did that's why they say he's inconsolable. The family doesn't blame him. Like did you watch the same video, or no
LizzyLove Elizabeth i did its just on oppinion -_-
She is not thinking clearly because of the grief. But trying to capitalise on this tragedy just makes her look even more delusional when there was no way for a child to reach the window without being lifted.
It’s not the cruise line’s fault it’s your fathers fault
How dare she blame cruise line. It was the grandfather's fault, an accident, yes, but it was his fault.
How is this the ships fault the old man should have never put the baby on the glass in the first place. He is the real problem here.
Andrew Wall true her dad is a dumbass
Shouldve not held the baby over a window
The "children's play area" that the family took photos of, has a bar right next to it. Really?
Wow. Nice way to turn your child’s terrible death into a way to make money.
This actually blows my mind
“Why is there a window open”
Really people you’ve never seen a window open??🤔
One random open window in a kids area. I am not saying it is 100 per cent the cruise lines fault, but if they don't change this, it will happen again.
The window is HUGE!!! In a kids play area
Thank you Tyler. I don't think that there should be this huge financial gain, but something and change this fleet wide. The cruise lines send out a survey after each trip, and I always fill them out. Do they read them? I have pointed out safety stuff, ways to save money and keep some of the savings and pass some on to guests, ways to make money as well. When I heard of this accident, I knew it was that type of window I seen on a RC cruise, because I don't recall them on carnival. About 3yrs ago, and this feeling of that looks dangerous and deceiving.
Christian Everson 🤣😂
@@lisamorand9607 They deserve no money. It was very obvious there was an open window. It was an error in judgement on the Grandpa's part. Why does Royal Caribbean need to reward them for his stupidity? Do we really need to live in a world where there is warnings on everything. These days when I get out of my car, it tells me to remember to take my child out and I don't even have a kid. Then when I do my laundry Tide tells me not to eat the pods. Common sense would have saved all of these from happening.
how about watch your kid and not blame the cruise for something the grandfather did
It literally isn't the cruises fault bruh its the grandfather's fault but I feel really bad for him
Agreed
I agree with you. I think this family is blaming the cruise line just to feel better.
But that’s okay
and it isn't the adoption agencys fault that you have heart is it?
@@TheSam_an please rewrite your sentence
We live in a world where when You're a customer to a company, somehow, the company has to be blamed for your stupidity just to get free money for life.
This story doesn’t add up. Sounds like someone wants a lawsuit
A Silva
No question about it. Hopefully the cruise line sues the family for everything they have.
Don’t bring babies to cruises I think they should put certain ages
Then that would prevent a lot of families from being able to go
Exactly
Duh 😜
I feel really bad for the family, especially the grandfather. Still, it is his fault. the window wasn't on the ground. If the person was tall enough to reach the window normally, they wouldn't be able to accidentally fall out. People shouldn't be leaning on glass anyways, especially 11 stories above the ground. This is a terribly unfortunate situation but I don't see how the cruise line is at fault.
K. voo it’s the grandfather, you could feel a window and also you’ll feel if there’s air
K. voo cruise ships have lots of lights inside and out so it makes no sense that he didn’t notice there was no window, because the lights of the ship would have reflected off of each window and there was most likely a breeze of some sort, or a smell or noise. Also, where did the glass part go? Because it has to be closed at some point.
None of the other children fell out that window. Only the one that was lifted by the grandfather.
I feel like every time we have very sensitive situations people need to blame something to pacify their hurt. Like the time the child fell into the zoo enclosure then they kill the animals and the parents want to sue the zoo. It’s that same bizarre mindset of emotional responses rather then acting on rational ones.
If the grandfather dropped the child out of a balcony deck room would they then say it’s the ships fault Becuase the balcony’s aren’t enclosed in glass ? Or off the side of the boat
I’m not trying to be hurtful here just doesn’t seem cool to blame the ship to me.
If it was me i would except that my father made a horrible mistake and try to move on with my life.
Blaming the grandfather is morally wrong i would say but so is blaming the ship.
Sorry for ur loss but it ain’t the cruises fault
The first story was that the grandfather had the child in his hands and "alot of witnesses" said that they saw him holding the baby and lose his footing and the baby went out the window. Now their side of the story is completely different
Strange
Its heartbreaking to loose a child this way. My heart breaks for this family. With that said...this child would never have fallen out the window had the grandfather not picked her up and out her on railing against where he thought glass was!!!! He used poor judgement. Even if glass was there she could have fallen through glass. Kids don't belong banging in glad anywhere. You can try to blame the cruise ship but fault lies 100% with gramps. Not cruise ship. I know you feel like you have to place blame.....
Even if you sue....a jury will never award damages...its not fault of cruise company.
Hopefully in time you will come to understand this fact.
I believe the cruise line ship, is not all responsible. Maybe leaving the window open was a mistake, but it's the grandfather's fault. Thats the sad reality. Shes trying so hard not to blame the grandpa, but deep down she knows its his fault. RIP little angel. 😔😔😭😭
How about you keep whoever you blame to yourself, simply mourn the loss of your child, and move on. . . People need to grow up and stop playing the damn blame game all the time. . .
I see what she’s saying, it is a kids area it should be child proof 🤷♀️.
it was childproof. it wasn't adult proof, which would've been the only way a child could've reached that height. They keep on saying there weren't enough safety measures in place. A railing is there to stop people from leaning on the floor to ceiling glass, which obviously means that you shouldn't be by said glass. If you bypass that safety measure, which the family did, then its no longer safe. I feel for the family, but they really need to take some blame, cause the cruise line DID NOT put their child in danger, they did by bypassing a safety measure. If there were a railing, would you stand on it? 90 percent of adults would say no, so why put a child on a railing if you wouldn't. Also want to point out that the family is using the fact that the family lifted her u all the time during her brother's hockey matches to bang on glass....every picture they posted of that has NO RAILINGS...Oh and it wasnt a kids play area, it was a smoking section next to a bar located by a child play. www.beyondships1.com/uploads/8/2/4/5/8245255/4-squeeze_orig.jpg The fact that window is open is plain as day, still think its the ships fault. The family needs yo own it i.ytimg.com/vi/F5e6b2VOdys/maxresdefault.jpg
Look at @JoshuaDanger ‘s comment above. The little girl didn’t fall from the children’s play area, she fell from Deck 11 which is the smoking area. That’s why the window was open.
It wasnt the kids area. Also even if it was he lifted her up ab iui ve the railing and set her on the railing to look out the window he obviously wasnt even holding her
It's not like the baby climbed up herself. Her grandfather put her up.
they werent in a kids area it was a smoking area shes lying
The mom is wild. Common sense was lacking in this situation
veronica cibrian wild?? lacking common sense?? you realize this women just lost her baby, right?
compassion was lacking in this situation
Common sense was laking and it wasn't the cruise line.
The grandfather is to blame ... stop blaming everything on others
Can't sue grandpa for millions $$$$$$$$?
Pfsif
Exactly.
I feel sorry for the family but if something like that happened to me, I’d definitely not spent any time on the TV talking about it or trying to sue.
It’s not the cruise lines fault he dropped the baby over the rail
He set the baby on a railing to look out the window and she whent to bang on the window because she did it many times before because her brother plays hockey
Never put your children at risk specially in a places like a cruise ship ,there windows, stairs, glasses , pools everywhere and I’ve seen signs about accidents prevention in different decks and doors. It is not Royal Caribbean fault al all!
He didn't lift her up at a hockey game. She's clearly on the floor. Grandpa was negligent. He let go of her.
It's parents failure. They could not keep an eye on the kid and now blaming a window and the cruise ship for negligence.wow
Horrible, but I believe its common sense to not let a baby near a window open or not.
Children’s play area + open window = cruise lines fault
Anna Marie nope he put her up there so it’s his fault
I think Grandad knew the window was open that's why he was drawn to it in the first place, to get some fresh air maybe??? San Juan is very hot this time of year. He propped her up on the rail & she slipped from his butter fingers. I think that's more likely what happened, it's not the Cruise lines fault. Oh that poor baby girl.. so sad :'(
Kurdt Cobain With the breeze that comes through those windows would make it pretty impossible for you to not know it’s open. Maybe grandad had too many drinks and wasn’t fully capable of looking after that baby.
@@Vicky-by2hq maybe neither of you have any idea of what you're talking about.
Sounds like that could have been the scenario
@@MS-mp9om The cruise line’s motion alleges surveillance video shows Anello walking up to a window and appearing to lean his upper body out of the window for several seconds.
Anello is seen in the video picking up Chloe and holding her out of the window for 30 to 40 second before losing his grip and dropping her, the motion alleges.
I've been on freedom twice and how couldn't he tell that the window was open. it is tinted green.
The news forgot to mention. It happened at night. So you can't tell.
did you throw a baby out of it?
Mai Xiong If it was at night then it should have been even more obvious the window was open. The lights from inside would have been reflecting against the surrounding windows.
@@maixiong3238 that window is 11 decks up with a cool breeze coming through it .
It looked blue to me
so sorry but that’s the grandfathers fault
he shouldn’t have put her up on the window ledge
When the dad said the baby was the grandfathers best friend, my heart just broke for this family 😭this is so incredibly sad!
Me too I’m crying after watching this
The real question is why was the old guy holding the baby out the window in the first place
I feel awful for them. The child did not fall out of an open window on her own. She couldnt reach it on her own. Therefore, the fault is with the person who put her up there. I cant imagine the pain he is dealing with. Its a sad situation but not the cruise lines fault.
Money no it’s not the grandfathers fault one if it’s a play area their should be a window like that’s really common sense and saying that a child can’t reach up their is a high statement because for one kids like to climb and blaming the grandfathers during trauma is not helping the family
@@niasia3349 whatever you say lol 😂 I'm sure more people agree with me. just have to use alittle common sense really..Which I understand some people lacks common sense.
@@niasia3349 even more so the grandfather and the family should already have known better if they know the little girl likes to bang on glass like the clear example they provided on glass at a hockey stadium. So ignorant
Niasia Stoopid How many toddlers have you seen been able to climb a 4-5 railing from the ground?
I feel sad for the family and the little baby. But, blaming others for our responsibility is not acceptable. ☹
The window she fell from was above toddler height. No kids would normally be able to reach It. It is purely the grandfathers fault.
It’s literally the grandfathers fault why would u put the baby on a window in the first place 🙄
Yeah 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Apparently so the baby could bang on the glass like she does at hockey games.
Crisyybabyy _ Exactly, it’s common sense
Because back it the 1800's his grandma and grandpa probably placed him in a window. 😉
@@tawnie9204 there was a stationary window below that open window she could have done that to . He had no business picking her up to do that .
Wasn’t the cruse ship fault
It’s window was off the ground no kid should have even been up there anyways
It ain't their fault. Just want to blame someone other than the grandfather being neglectful
Khaliyah Taylor he wasn’t neglectful not at all
Khaliyah Taylor he didn’t know the window was open so it’s not his fault
Maddy Niman
He shouldn’t have put her up there either way.. and you freaking check before you put your baby in a possible fatal situation. It unfortunately is his fault, it wasn’t on purpose but he was neglectful
@@maddyniman703 HOW DO YOU NOT SEE WTF AN OPEN WINDOW LOOKS LIKE FROM WHEN ITS NOT OPEN
i read the headline and No ma'am its not the cruise line's fault it was your dad's!
I'm sorry but he should have known better...
I'm a parent and I'd never lift my kid up to an open window!!! It was a recipe for disaster...
I hear you, but I don't think that the complete picture is being described, it is all glass, like a hexagon, and one lone window was open. People walk into glass doors all the time.
@@lisamorand9607 the window was tall enough so kids wont reach it
I'm sorry for their loss but really , how u don't feel a breeze comin thru an opened window...I'm not feelin grandfather story.
Wouldn't they have cameras on the ship? At least in the public areas to make sure everything is ok?
Dude really? You don't always feel the breeze when the direction of the wind is in a different direction. During the summer time, you could open a window and guess what? No breeze.
@@SquidCena then guess what u get comin in, instead of breeze?..... Heat dumb ass!
Jae Hawkins it can feel hot inside the ship too duh
@@sophiemckay3272 nigga regardless you can tell and feel air coming thru a open window
Blaming the cruise line for grandpa’s negligence is wrong, we all have to start taking responsibility and accepting the consequences .
Imagine throwing a baby out a window then trying to blame the ship
Imagine using common sense to see that an elderly man who accidently dropped a baby out of the window and is screaming with grief and blaming himself isnt "throwing a baby out a window"
These days people never want to take responsibility it's always someone or something else.
This world isn't baby proof, at the end of the day its the responsibly of parents / guardians to protect a child
if he was careful this wouldn't of happened.
As yourself this question, on the 11th floor do you expect a window to be left open with a bunch of toddlers around??
Suzanne Hewitt ask yourself this, how did he not notice the window was open? It would’ve had a draft of air coming in.
Ariana Ruiz I have an eye problem. It is possible. I’m telling you it happened to me.
Suzanne Hewitt Mm. So it’s the cruises fault? Is there a sign, or did they ever announce all windows will be sealed at all times? Or did he just assume?
Suzanne Hewitt Don’t get me wrong, it’s unfortunate. But it’s wrong to blame someone else for your mistake, period.
This is not the cruise ships fault
While I feel for the pain I scoff at them. It’s a pathetic move to blame the cruise...
It’s not the cruise ship fault it’s the grandfather but R.I.P
