Man jumped overboard off Oasis this week.

Why were the guys filming? Very strange indeed.

Exactly! That's what I keep wondering. I mean, there's a video out there of the drunk guys in the stateroom when the RCL workers entered (trying to catch homophobic comments)? But what's even weirder is there's another video out there, of the husband's reaction when the guy jumped and then he finds out he went down. Why on earth was he filming this? It's like they had a scheme beforehand. It's such an odd story and makes you wonder.

Company officials say it was an intentional act by her. Not much anyone can do in that case.

I agree, but from the looks of the video....that could be said about the other one as well.....We cruise in a little over a month. I plan to keep both feet firmly planted on the ship!

To put it a little more in perspective, from 2005 - 2015 there were 267 man overboard a internationally. In the US there are about 100 drowning, (non boat related), deaths of children under 5 every year, most are in backyard pools and bathtubs.

While I understand your concern, the odds are in your favor, but obviously nothing can replace a watchful eye. So don't wear your eye patch on Pirate night!!!!!

I got this information on the internet so it has to be true!

We live in an area where "lakes" are commonplace and almost everyone has a pool. When home shopping, I looked for houses without pools for this reason. We used to have a pool up north, and I was a wreck with my older two.

I agree it seems liked it was planned. I didn't even know it was possible to get cell service on a ship or was that just an act? The whole thing is just so bizarre. Sadly, it doesn't surprise me there are so many crazy people in this world. I don't mean crazy in the sense of committing suicide(that's sad) I mean crazy as to try to profit off it.
