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). Cameron Robbins went on a trip to the Bahamas to celebrate his graduation from the University Laboratory School in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He and several friends were aboard the Blackbeard’s Revenge cruise on 24 May when Cameron allegedly jumped off the boat on a dare. Robbins graduated from the University Lab High School, which operates as part of LSU, on Sunday.

Parker’s father owns an air conditioning company and the family was cruising on the boat as guests of a wholesale company, according to the New York Post. NORTH PORT, Fla. (SNN TV)—- A man who jumped off a Royal Caribbean cruise last week has been identified as a former North Port High School football player. The father said that he threw six life rings from the ship in the hopes that his son would be able to get hold of one. Levion's father, Francel, has since spoken to The Daily Sun, stating that he believes that his son is still alive due to his experience as a diver who worked on a fishing boat. Bryan Sims, a passenger who claimed he saw the incident unfold, told the paper he’d been hanging out with Parker and his brother in the hot tub. Loved ones reportedly witnessed Parker jump off the 11th deck of the Liberty of the Seas cruise liner in what appeared to be an “impulsive leap,” the Post reported last week, citing a witness.

“As we were walking from the hot tub back to the elevators, his dad and brother were walking towards us. His dad was fussing at him for being drunk, I guess,” Sims said of the moment before Parker jumped. Parker jumped off the 18-story Liberty of the Seas after reportedly getting into an argument with his father. Parker, who was home-schooled, played football for North Port High School during the 2021 season, according to North Port H.S.
Royal Caribbean confirmed that a passenger, whose identity has not been revealed, went overboard near The Bahamas at about 4 a.m. The 18-year-old "reportedly jumped from a pleasure vessel," the Royal Bahamas Police Force said in a statement. 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. The University Lab School Director Kevin George told WAFB that Cameron had attended the school for 13 years. The teen also played baseball for the school, which operates as part of Louisiana State University.

The ship continued on its voyage back to Fort Lauderdale shortly after, leaving the search up to the Coast Guard. The Broward County Sheriff’s Office identified Parker on Wednesday, the New York Post and Daily Mail reported, just a day after the Coast Guard officially called off their search for the previously unidentified man. Florida deputies did not immediately respond to a request for confirmation from The Daily Beast. According to a CLIA report, only 28.2% of passengers who fell overboard between 2009 and 2019 were successfully rescued.
The Royal Bahamas Defence Force, assisted by the US Coast Guard Southeast, has been searching for the missing teen from the air, but so far without success. Robbins was in the Bahamas staying at the Atlantis Paradise resort in Nassau with other teenagers from Baton Rouge to mark their high school graduations, Louisiana State University confirmed Thursday. Robbins was last seen splashing in the dark, “shark-infested” waters a few feet from the boat, before vanishing from view. 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. Nearly 400 people have gone overboard on major cruise lines between 2000 and 2020, according to the Washington Post.
The party ship remained in the area for several hours while the crew looked for Robbins. As many cases are often deadly, many cruise lines have installed surveillance cameras and employed additional safety measures to help reduce risk.
He had been drinking and had just gotten into an argument with his father, witnesses said. "Just one of those kids that you're so proud of once they cross the stage," George told WBRZ. 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.
Cameron Robbins, who graduated from University Laboratory School in Baton Rouge this past Sunday, was on a trip to the Bahamas with students from several local high schools, staying at Atlantis Paradise Island resort in Nassau, reported the station WAFB. 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 Louisiana high school graduate who disappeared after leaping off a cruise ship into dark waters off the Bahamas last week may have met a grisly fate in the “shark-infested” area, a local official said. 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. Royal Caribbean said it “immediately” launched search boats to look for the 20-year-old and alerted the Coast Guard, which later took over the search.
An immediate search and rescue was called with passengers helping by looking into the sea from the deck, but sadly the search for the missing man was called off by the US Coast Guard, per the Daily Mail. A man who jumped to his death from a Royal Caribbean cruise last week was identified by media outlets Wednesday as Levion Parker, a 20-year-old Floridian who regularly posted about hunting and fishing. "The ship's crew immediately launched a search and rescue effort alongside the US Coast Guard, who has taken over the search," the Royal Caribbean spokesperson said. The parents of an 18-year-old high school graduate who fell overboard on a sunset cruise in the Bahamas have broken their silence.
The U.S. Coast Guard has ended their search for a Louisiana teenager who went overboard during a sunset cruise in the Bahamas on Wednesday night. 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. Royal Caribbean said it “immediately” launched search boats to look for him with help from the US Coast Guard. Heartbreaking video shows 20-year-old Levion Parker happily swimming in the ocean and fishing with his pals just a week before he drunkenly jumped off a Royal Caribbean cruise ship and was never seen again. Social media accounts for Parker showed that he was an outdoorsman who’d won a fishing tournament just weeks prior to his fatal leap.
The agency announced the conclusion of its search for 18-year-old Cameron Robbins, a recent high school graduate, on Saturday after a two-day effort led by the Royal Bahamas Defence Force. 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. 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.
