\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tMusic festivals are known for being crowded and chaotic, which is why they usually employ stringent security and crowd control techniques. The now-infamous Astroworld festival, which took place in November 2021, is a terrifying example of what can happen when those measures fail. In Netflix\u2019s new disaster documentary, Trainwreck: The Astroworld Tragedy, viewers get an [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
What Caused the So-Called Poop Cruise?<\/h3>\n\n![\"Trainwreck](\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg)
<\/div>Courtesy of Netflix<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\nThe infamous poop cruise began when a fire broke out in an engine room as the Carnival Triumph was on its way back to Galveston, Texas, to wrap a four-day journey. Though the fire was quickly extinguished and no one was hurt, the damage cut power to the ship and left its toilets unusable.<\/p>\n
What Did Passengers Endure While Stranded?<\/h3>\n
By the first day, it became clear that waste was going to be a problem, as the staff instructed guests to urinate in the showers and to defecate in red plastic biohazard bags. Guests were then asked to leave the bags outside their rooms for collection as they piled up in the hallways.<\/p>\n
The odor, marinating in the intense heat compounded by no working air conditioning, soon became overwhelming. One guest in the documentary recalled continuously taking Imodium in an effort to avoid using the bathroom.<\/p>\n
In an effort to escape the heat, many guests moved their mattresses out of their rooms and onto the deck, where they could at least try to sleep in fresh air.<\/p>\n

In an effort to raise morale, the crew eventually decided to open the ship\u2019s bar for free drinks, but it led to people urinating over the railings and throwing the red bags overboard (one crew member even recalled the wind blowing the bag back in a guest\u2019s face).<\/p>\n
Attempts to help those on board began almost immediately, with additional food and supplies arriving via boat within 24 hours. The supply crew was, however, unable to do anything about the lack of electricity, nor could they improve the sanitary conditions.<\/p>\n
A rescue attempt by a group of tugboats proved to do more harm than good as the weather took a turn for the worse and the boats pulling on the ship caused it to tilt, sending sewage spilling out of the toilets and onto the floors.<\/p>\n
