The medic further explained that the ship’s medical center is equipped to handle emergencies, with 12 rooms and a morgue that holds only three bodies. This space limitation is what leads to the freezer being used in such unfortunate circumstances.
Many viewers were shocked by this revelation, with some, including former sailors, confirming the connection between ice cream parties and freezer use.
One cruise ship medic commented, “I can confirm the morgue and ice cream correlation,” while another sailor shared, “Yes, space sometimes needs to be made in the freezer.”
This unsettling information has left some people wary about taking cruises, with one viewer remarking, “Every fact I learn makes me want to go on a cruise less.”
