He walked down Bourbon Street to Toulouse Street and then to the Natchez river boat. A camera showed him walking along a 2-3 foot-wide gang plank near the boat about 2:40 a.m. when he suddenly disappeared from view. A review of the subsequent 4 hours of tape do not show him again.

The police believe he fell into the river. "We know he had been drinking and appeared disoriented,"

While he may not win a Darwin Award, he without question deserves a Darwin Award Nomination.

“A camera showed him walking along a 2-3 foot-wide gang plank near the boat “

Someone’s family member has died and this thread is full of snarky comments.

Guess no one here ever drank too much and found themselves in a bad situation.

I feel sorry for his family. They were on tv last night hurting, looking for their father. Saying money was no object.

I hate to hear he died but I’m glad they found his body.

It’s sad.
