The woman, who wished to remain anonymous, said many of the students were part of a close-knit community that was in shock, disbelief, exhausted and cold as the U.S. Coast Guard, Royal Bahamas Defence Force and United Cajun Navy searched the waters until about 3 a.m. At one point, the person in the water appears to turn and swim in the opposite direction of the lifesaver ring that was thrown overboard. A few days after Robbins’ disappearance, his family travelled from Louisiana to the Bahamas to take part in the search and visit the area where he was last seen, before returning home Sunday.

The 20-year-old passenger who jumped off a Royal Caribbean cruise last week after an argument with his dad has been identified as a former high school football player and avid hunter living in Florida. #cameronrobbins #fyp I know they were drunk and probably didnt grasp the severity of the situation but to just record and say bye bye knowing he waw struggling breaks my heart. In a statement provided to The Independent, Jonathan Chia, a representative for Pirates’ Revenge Ltd, the parent company of Blackbeard’s Revenge, said Cameron went overboard at approximately 9.40pm local time in Montagu Bay off Athol Island in the Bahamas.

According to witnesses, the teen — who was apparently acting on a dare — took a plunge off a party cruise into the ocean near Athol Island at night. The Blackbeard’s Revenge, which is designed to resemble a pirate ship, remained in the area for several hours while the crew attempted to look for Robbins. Idiling in the onyx waters as your only source of light drifts away slowly, with possibly dozens of sharks directly underneath you, is no way to go. As one Twitter commenter pointed out, the absolute terror of being Robbins at that moment is nightmare fuel. In December, an MSC Cruises passenger jumped from one of its ships while sailing from Europe to South America.

The parents of an 18-year-old high school graduate who fell overboard on a sunset cruise in the Bahamas have broken their silence. In the video, other guests upon the cruise ship can be heard swearing and eventually panicking as the footage allegedly shows Robbins getting pulled underneath the water. The Baton Rouge 18-year-old was enjoying a sunset cruise with several hundred fellow graduates May 24 when he leaped overboard from a vessel designed to look like a pirate ship — apparently on a dare. As Louisiana high-school grad Cameron Robbins vanished beneath shark-infested waters after jumping from a boat in the Bahamas, someone yelled, “Bye, bye! A multi-day search for a Louisiana teen who jumped from a sunset cruise in the Bahamas has come to its tragic end -- and the last known sighting of him was caught on harrowing video.

He then vanished from the view of the panicked onlookers and has not been seen since, with the water he went into described as 'really shark infested' by Royal Bahamas Defense Force Commodore Raymond King. The footage also contains the last words that Cameron may have heard before going missing that night on 24 May. The video of Cameron in the water has gone viral since his disappearance and some viewers believe they've spotted something moving in the water which could be a shark. "We offer our sincerest condolences to Cameron Robbins’ family and friends," Spado added.

The ship was near Athol Island an uninhabited island located northeast of Nassau, according to WBRZ. Levion Parker, of North Port, Florida, has been missing since he jumped overboard April 4 in front of his brother and father on the cruise to Cuba and the Bahamas’ Grand Inagua Island, the Broward County Sheriff’s Office said Wednesday. Experts have told Fox News Digital there is a vast array of marine life, including dolphins, tiger sharks and bull sharks in those waters that feed off the scraps from the boats.

In 2023, about 31 million passengers traveled on a cruise, and at least 10 people went overboard, with two of them surviving, Business Insider reported. “I have been in touch with Cameron’s family and at this time, authorities are still searching for him in the Bahamas,” George wrote. The boat stayed in the area that night for hours after the incident as people looked for Robbins.

The video capturing Robbins’ final moments has been viewed more than 10 millions on TikTok, and Web sleuths have edited the footage to slow it down and brighten it in a bid to shed light on what happened, but ultimately without success. The footage captures horrified onlookers on the ship frantically yelling at Robbins to “grab the buoy,” but the teen appears to swim in the opposite direction — possibly encountering a shark next to him. Since he went missing, a multi-day search was undertaken by both Bahamian authorities and the U.S. Coast Guard -- but Robbins was never found, and the search has now been called off after several unsuccessful days of scouring the area for any sign of him. Robbins was last seen splashing in the dark, “shark-infested” waters a few feet from the boat, before vanishing from view.

Extra counselors will be available on campus to speak with students and faculty who are struggling to process this news. Our thoughts are with the Robbins family, and we ask that you keep them in your thoughts as well,” Mr George wrote. The US Coast Guard and Royal Bahamas Defence Force spent several days searching for Cameron before suspending their efforts on 27 May. Following his presumed death, a memorial was planned for the teenager on Sunday (4 June).

According to witnesses, public statements, and the Robbins family, Robbins’ death was an unfortunate, heartbreaking accident. But while this doesn’t exactly count under our current understanding of true crime, Robbins’ death has nonetheless been sensationalized in the exact same way. Speculation grew so large that in an interview with Fox News, a spokesperson for the United Cajun Navy addressed the rumors, saying that Robbins’ family had asked rescuers to shut the theory down.

The principal released a statement on behalf of the school, saying that the University Lab School community was praying for Robbins’ safe return. University Lab School Director Kevin George said Robbins attended the school for all 13 years of his education and was a pitcher on the school’s baseball team. Official search attempts for the 18-year-old were called off on 27 May as the Royal Bahamas Defence Force and the US Coast Guard Southeast were unable to locate him in the water.

"In this time of grief, we thank our family, friends and well wishers for granting us the privacy we need to properly remember our son and mourn his loss." The family of Cameron Robbins remembers the Baton Rouge, Louisiana high school graduate as an intense, driven, funny, and kind-hearted son. But on the internet, the loss of the 18-year-old — after he jumped off of a cruise ship on an apparent dare — has gone from tragic accident to ripe content mine, the latest example of a tragedy going through the true-crime machine on TikTok. The Coast Guard called off its own search two days later, after reportedly scouring over 325 square miles. The Coast Guard called off its own search two days later, after reportedly scouring over 325 square miles.

The Coast Guard assisted the Royal Bahamas Defence Force in search efforts by deploying aircrews. "So he's looking at whatever popped up out of the water, and instead of swimming toward the life ring he turns around at that point. As many cases are often deadly, many cruise lines have installed surveillance cameras and employed additional safety measures to help reduce risk. The release of his identity comes shortly after the Coast Guard called off its search for Parker. “The crew executed the ‘man overboard’ protocol in line with all approved safety procedures and company policies to ensure the best chance of retrieving an individual who has gone overboard,” Mr Chia said. Sunday's memorial service will begin at 4 p.m., with visitation hours between 2 and 4 p.m.

The high school baseball standout graduated from Baton Rouge's U-High on May 21, and his last posts on Instagram include pictures of him surrounded by his family and friends. The viral cellphone video of Robbins in the water, which was seen over 10 million times, went through virtually every type of edit on social media after a speculation-fueled narrative that Robbins encountered a shark gripped people's curiosities. The video, which has so far been viewed more than 10 million times on Twitter, is being scrutinized, with some indicating the video allegedly shows the exact moment Robbins is pulled underneath the water by a shark after jumping off a cruise ship near Nassau, Bahamas.

Royal Caribbean said it “immediately” launched search boats to look for him with help from the US Coast Guard. Parker jumped off the 18-story Liberty of the Seas after reportedly getting into an argument with his father. He has "been here throughout his entire educational career. He's an athlete, great kid, great smile, great head of hair. Just one of the kids you're so proud of when they cross the stage," George said. "None of the experts consulted can definitely say what's in the video due to the quality and length of the video," Trascher said. "The Robbins family has requested that we not entertain that theory any longer, so our official position is that we don't know what happened while Cam was in the water."
