As the video comes to an end, you can see the boat begin to sink, as the nose of the craft submerges beneath the heaving waves. "It's going under," someone says, as a member of staff on the show boat can be heard desperately attempting to summon help.

"Crew! Anybody who can read me. I need a rope on the bow, and one on the starboard side," he shouts.

The woman filming the video concludes: "One of the ducks sank and everybody onboard here is trying to get them out of the water."
