A mother jumped into the water without hesitation after her young daughter fell between the dock and a Carnival cruise ship in the Bahamas, prompting rescuers caught on video.
The incident took place near Celebration Key on the island of Grand Bahama and was filmed aboard a nearby cruise ship, with video showing crew and passengers reacting as the child and her mother were in the water near the Carnival Sunrise.
The video was shared on TikTok by user Chelspiers, who said he was aboard the Carnival Conquest when he heard screaming outside his cabin and noticed something was wrong on the dock.
“I’m sitting in my room on the Carnival Conquest and I hear crying outside,” he wrote. “Apparently, people fell between the booth and Carnival Sunrise. They were pulled to safety! The mother jumped after her child, a brave woman! It was a very scary situation but they were rescued quickly!”

The video shows several workers lined up on the edge of the dock just feet from the ship, looking down and scrambling for the ring as others run to help.
When the ring was thrown into the water, more people ran to help, some holding a ladder to the edge of the dock while the rescue continued.
Moments later, the child, 4, was lifted to safety using a ring, much to the delight of onlookers in the amazing rescue.
