In the video, Robbins, 18, can be seen in dark waters with a standout white figure, resembling a shark, appearing on the left screen. Pictures on Robbins’ social media show he was a keen baseball player and has been described as a ‘fierce competitor’ by his coach. “We offer our sincerest condolences to Cameron Robbins’ family and friends,” they tweeted, explaining they were suspending the search. Robbins was last seen splashing in the dark, “shark-infested” waters a few feet from the boat, before vanishing from view. Robbins had just graduated from the University Lab School in Baton Rouge when he disappeared during the graduation trip.
Haunting image surfaces after Cameron Robbins jumped off ship into ‘shark-infested’ water
Our thoughts are with the Robbins family, and we ask that you keep them in your thoughts as well,” Mr George wrote. A viral video of a teenager who has gone missing appearing to jump overboard from a cruise ship may contain the last words he heard. The small, pirate-lookalike cruise ship was anchored throughout the night, and the students were stuck at sea near the uninhabited island in what Royal Bahamas Defense Force Commodore Raymond King called "shark-infested waters." If cruise ships regulated how much passengers were drinking, Cameron may have not jumped overboard, she believes. Cameron Robbins, an 18-year-old high school graduate, has been missing since 24 May, when he fell overboard on a sunset cruise ship into waters near the Bahamas.

"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." Several others could be heard shouting to him that he's swimming away from a buoy which would have helped keep him afloat in the sea. He was last seen paddling around in the water before disappearing from view, with the boat staying in place for several hours in an attempt to find Robbins. 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. 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.

"At the beginning of it, it looks like there is a shark or something," McMurray told The Mirror of the footage. Royal Bahamas Defense Force Commodore Raymond King told the Daily Mail that the waters off Athol Island, the area where Robbins was last seen, are "really shark-infested." 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. The principal released a statement on behalf of the school, saying that the University Lab School community was praying for Robbins’ safe return. “He’s an athlete, great kid, great smile, great head of hair,” George told the station WBRZ.
“I have been in touch with Cameron’s family and at this time, authorities are still searching for him in the Bahamas,” George wrote. "Our thoughts and prayers are with the Robbins Family during this incredibly difficult time. Out of respect for the Robbins family’s privacy, we feel it’s inappropriate to comment on the details surrounding the night of the incident. The video appears to show a shadowy object in the water move toward the recent high school grad, who was swimming toward a life preserver before changing direction. Cameron's baseball coach paid tribute to the teenager and called him a "fierce competitor."
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 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. 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. Made to look like a pirate ship from the 18th century, prices go from $75 per adult and $42 per child. Royal Bahamas Defense Force (RBDF) Commodore, Raymond King, has since provided an update, confirming that the area Robbins went to swim in 'is really shark infested'.

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. McMurray said that he did not "see any shark attack or bite" in the footage but noted that sharks are drawn to boats. Cameron's family released a statement following the announcement that the search for him had been called off. 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.
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. "Your vision, judgment, everything is impaired and I can tell you that area, for the individual who reportedly jumped over, it is an area that is really shark-infested as well. While not confirmed by the United States Coast Guard press release, Royal Bahamas Defence Force Commodore Raymond King spoke to the media during the days of the search about the possibility of a shark attack.

But Robbins appears to head in the opposite direction of the buoy after what appears to be a shark is seen next to it. “He initially goes for the buoy but then turns around when he sees the shark, ultimately disappearing into the water, likely dragged down. "They're the ones on 'Jaws' that had the license plate tag in their stomach, so they'll eat anything. It's always possible that he could have been consumed, after the fact." The shark expert also noted that a lot of tiger sharks lurk in the area, and they are known to be aggressive.
Royal Bahamas Defence Force Commodore Raymond King said in a video posted to Facebook that the area where Mr Robbins allegedly jumped into, “is an area that is really shark-infested”. According to a statement from University Lab School Director Kevin George, obtained by local news outlet WAFB, Mr Robbins attended the school for 13 years. The US Coast Guard and local Bahaman authorities spent days looking for Robbins before calling off their search last week after scouring more than 325 square miles of ocean. Options include the night pirate party cruise, which heads to Paradise Island and lasts three hours. In comparison, an average cruise ship spans 1,000 feet in length or roughly three football fields. Robbins had been sailing on the party boat known as the Blackbeard’s Revenge boat, described as the “ONLY PIRATE SHIP TOUR in The Bahamas,” just three days after he graduated high school.
A few hours after checking in, Robbins and the other newly minted high-school grads boarded the Pirate’s Revenge boat for an evening pleasure cruise near the uninhabited Athol Island, located north of Nassau. Robbins, a standout baseball player, graduated from University Laboratory High School in Baton Rouge on May 21. The boat stayed in the area that night for hours after the incident as people looked for Robbins. The Baton Rouge native, along with his classmates, had been staying at the Atlantis Paradise Resort and took a sunset cruise on the ship. Two days after Robbins went missing in the water, May 28, the search was called off after he was nowhere to be seen. According to a new video, which shows Robbins swimming in the dark sea, viewers think they've spotted a horrific outcome.
"The industry loves to say that passenger safety is their number one concern but they certainly aren't putting their time, money, and attention where their mouth is. "Much change is needed in regards to the cruise industry's passenger safety and security policies", she said. She tragically lost her daughter Ashley after she died while onboard a cruise ship to Ensenada in 2006. 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 Royal Bahamas Defence Force contacted the US Coast Guard, District Seven around 11.30pm local time to report Mr Robbins had fallen overboard, according to a statement from the Coast Guard. The group was aboard Blackbeard’s Revenge, a sunset cruise, on 24 May when Mr Robbins went overboard.

Cmdr. Matthew Spado, Coast Guard liaison officer to the Bahamas.
