A waterslide on Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas underwent some technical difficulties this week and it sounds like a rider took a beating on the way down.
It's not clear if someone fell OUT of the slide or not, but a glass panel broke while someone was riding and the person in the slide wound up injured.
From CBS News:
In a statement, Royal Caribbean confirmed that an adult guest was injured when the acrylic glass broke off in the slide while the guest was inside.
'Our team provided medical care to an adult guest when acrylic glass broke off a water slide as the guest passed through the slide,' a spokesperson said. 'The guest is being treated for his injuries. The water slide is closed for the remainder of the sailing pending an investigation.'
The ship is docking in Miami on Saturday and Royal Caribbean says they'll investigate the cause of the failure.
Here's someone who claimed to be an eyewitness.
This comes just weeks after the Icon was in the news after two South African crew members got into a brawl, resulting in one death.
It's a rough month for Royal Caribbean.
