That big ass ocean compared to a person going overboard from a cruise ship is like trying to find a rock in the ocean.

Its damn near impossible, unless said person has something to signal his/her whereabouts like a flair, bright light, dye, beaconing device, etc.

I was in the USN, was on aircraft carriers, and if someone went over, it would be difficult to retrieve them, unless they had the above mentioned devices. An aircraft carrier is 250 feet tall and over 1000 feet long, while cruise ships have a height above the waterline of around 72 metres (236ft 11in) and 1000 feet long respectively.

But in bootcamp they taught us how to float using our clothes in case we ever went overboard. But floating wont keep you from being eaten alive by sharks.

**edit

Watched video, it didn't look like that big of a ship but camera angle could be deceiving.

Hope he had some seconds of agonising regret while it dawned on him what a colossal zoomer ****wit he was.

Sucks for his parents not even having a carcass to put in a box. He is quite literally, fish food.

The dude is an idiot and got himself killed. Now he can't procreate. Seems like a win to me.

Nah, I don't think the shark got him. They would have found evidence easier. He'll probably wash up in Florida sometime during the next few weeks.

you are talking about the swells?
never been in the middle of the ocean but i know the swells make large boat rescues difficult.

Absolutely its 100% a shark. The waves aren't crashing as they would if it was just cut water from the bow. Its slithering toward him like a shark. He ****ing sees it and starts moving away from the life raft (because the sharks right next to it).

Hopefully he got sucked into the prop and went quickly. Rip
Friday night. Date night in Miami. Every night is a date night in Miami, and everyone's having sex. But for me, sex never enters into it. I don't understand sex. Not that I have anything against women, and I certainly have an appropriate sensibility about men, but when it comes to the actual act of sex, it's always just seemed so undignified. But I have to play the game.

Its not like they had a crew standing by. This retard jumped in off of a moving boat. His friends threw a float. He wasn't able to swim to the float due to the current. And most certainly wasn't able to swim fast enough to keep up to the boat.



Most likely scenario is this kid drowned before the captain of the boat even turned it around to look for him. He was trying to swim towards the boat. They were pulling away. He'd have likely tired out and drowned trying to keep up.

Its actually really easy to stay afloat in the ocean. Much easier then a pool or lake.

The problem is trying to swim against a current when there are waves that most likely washed over his head. Dude got tired, sucked in some water, panicked, and drowned.
Its no

"Early on Friday morning, Justin Osborne, who identified himself as one of Robbins’ baseball coaches, posted on ******** that the news of Robbins’ absence was “absolutely heartbreaking.”

“This kid is one of best kids I’ve ever had the privilege to coach. His heart was huge, always smiling, always finding best in others,” he added."


Just once i want to see a case where someone says "Yeah he was a real douche and nobody liked him."

Lold 700 hours of boating under neath me.

"but I can dive" Well bitch, seems like you can't float. Best stick to the bay sonny.

EDIT: to clarify, it aint a swell if its rolling. It wouldn't swamp your head. Once period gets passed 10 you can barely feel that ****. JFL! Try driving a boat instead of riding in one sucka. Dood prolly still thinks trim is the pussy hes trying to land.

“The waters off Athol Island, where 18-year-old Cameron Robbins was last seen swimming after jumping off the Blackbeard's Revenge sunset cruise on May 24, are “really shark-infested,” Royal Bahamas Defense Force (RBDF) Commodore Raymond King told the Daily Mail on Tuesday”


He could have floated/swam toward island but sharks seen him jump and that was a wrap.

You hear a girl say "there's a shark" and a man yell "shark" as well. Not everyone would've seen it as they may have been looking right at the kid or otherwise freaking out.
Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; and if it is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.

Full Retard, the movie.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

Almost sounds like someone edited the audio. Or maybe the pan away saved it from being recorded. But yeah sounds like they're trying to say it.
