A Carnival cruise passenger is suing the cruise line after suffering an appalling accident last summer playing mini golf. 

Dzung Tran was playing mini-golf on board the Carnival Splendor when he tripped over a loose border on the course. His fall lead him to tear a major artery in one of his upper arms after being impaled by a golf club.

Tran is now suing Carnival claiming the mini-golf course was poorly maintained and not built to standard.
