Over on the Cunard forum is the amazing story of the camera lost overboard from the QM2, found by a fisherman and returned to the owners in South Africe.....all with the help of Cruise Critic and the BBC.

 

An amazing story of wonderful people and remarkable luck.

 

The thread is a great read.

Thank you both for the links and the thread!! I am only now getting to post #144 on the thread SAFRICAN coming in to tell us it is her camera!! OMG if this does not make you love CC even more than before.... My wondering mind wonders what made Benito (the OP, CC name Mauregato) post on CC to begin with?? The man is a GENIUS!!!!!

 

OK, off to read the other 4-5 pages!! I cannot let this one go I have to finish it!!

Thank you so much for posting this thread. I read it from start to finish and this is absolutely incredible. This is the main reason that I love CruiseCritic.com so much. No wonder it's the first thing I check out when I go online.

A fantastic story ... that only took 10 days from the first CC post to finding the owner. If it was a movie I'd have been saying "preposterous" half way through it!

What a wonderful and heart warming story. It just proves there still are "good" people out there, and the lengths they will go to in order to help others. It also shows what a great asset Cruise Critic was in this case, and that the media do drop in to see what's going on from time to time!

 

Smooth Sailing! :):):)

Awesome story.

I read the Cunard threads too and was intrigued by that thread and amazed at the final result: Cruise Critic helping the owner be reunited with the camera! And a fellow South African to boot. Gotta love Cruise critic. :)

I read page after page of posts with bated breath! What a wonderful story! So glad it turned out great!

A truly heartwarming story. The impossible can be accomplished when people work together. Should be mandatory reading in any ethics course.
