144. The Marchioness Disaster
Who Did What Now · 2025-05-26
1989 in London, England, 130 partygoers boarded a small pleasure boat - The Marchioness - for a birthday bash cruise down the Thames river. Less than an hour later, over a third of these people would lose their lives after the boat was struck by a large dredger. For the survivors and the victims families, the pain had only begun.
