A father and child were rescued from the water after going overboard the Disney Dream cruise ship

A father and his 5-year-old daughter were rescued from the water after they went overboard a Disney Cruise Line ship Sunday afternoon, officials confirmed.

Passenger Gar Frantz said he was on the fourth-floor deck when he saw a child sitting on the rail of the Disney Dream cruise ship while a man was taking a picture.

Then the child fell overboard.

“We watched it, you could see two little things. ... It was crazy, it was horrific,” Frantz said about seeing the man and the child in the water.

Passenger Gail Merrick told NBC News she was playing bingo aboard the ship, which was traveling from Florida to the Bahamas and back, when she noticed a commotion on deck.
