‘Oh, bye, bye!’: Teen Who Jumped off Cruise Ship Last Seen in Waters of Bermuda Triangle

The missing Louisiana teenager who jumped off a cruise in the Bahamas last week was within the infamous Bermuda Triangle, a body of water well known for its tragedy, the New York Post reports.

On May 24, 18-year-old Cameron Robbins was on a cruise near Athol Island just north of Nassau when he leapt off a ship, allegedly on a dare.

A video recording taken just after the jump shows the recent high school graduate in the dark, shark-infested waters. He’s seen swimming away from a life preserver as someone on the ship began shouting.

“This kid f**king jumped off! Oh my f**king God! Oh, shut the f**k up! Oh, bye, bye!”

Authorities searched for Robbins for days but later called off the mission after finding no trace of him over 325 square miles.

That section of the sea is within the 440,000-square-mile zone between the coast of Florida, Bermuda and Puerto Rico known as the Bermuda Triangle, also called the Devil’s Triangle, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

It is a place where numerous people have gone missing or died, and planes and marine vessels have vanished, which may be attributed partly to extreme weather and rough seas.

Despite the perilous history of the Bermuda Triangle, experts say incidents within its boundaries are not unique.

“The ocean has always been a mysterious place to humans, and when foul weather or poor navigation is involved, it can be a very deadly place. This is true all over the world. There is no evidence that mysterious disappearances occur with any greater frequency in the Bermuda Triangle than in any other large, well-traveled area of the ocean,” NOAA’s National Ocean Service states on its website.

Robbins, from Baton Rouge, has been officially designated as “lost at sea.” A memorial service is scheduled for Sunday at Broadmoor United Methodist Church, according to WAFB-TV.
