Cruise operator denies gay magician was attacked by passenger during show, but viral video proves otherwise
You can watch it below.Murphy spoke to the Australian news show, A Current Affair, yesterday about what happened.
He said the assault had left him with a bruised arm and he still experienced some psychological trauma over it. The reaction of the cruise operator also left him unimpressed.
He suggests it’s not done enough to rectify the situation. He says he complained straight away to staff backstage. However, the male passenger was allowed to enjoy the rest of the cruise.“I just remember this really angry-looking face just dive out of the audience and jump on top of me,” Murphy recalled. “My legs got slammed against the back of the stage and then I fell backwards and this angry face was just on top of me.”“It’s just so sudden and so violent and so unnecessary.
It’s a comedy magic show with a guy in a sequined jacket who’s just openly talked about being gay.”The cruise worker delivered a pizza to the man’s cabin and then returned to ask him if he was straight.
