The attraction was closed following the incident, they added. 

According to its website, the museum lets guests experience what it was like to walk the historic areas of the Titanic, while surrounded by more than 400 historical artifacts from the famed ship and its passengers. 

"As visitors touch a real iceberg, walk the Grand Staircase and third class hallways, reach their hands into 28-degree water, and try to stand on the sloping decks, they learn what it was like on the RMS Titanic by experiencing it first-hand," the website stated.
