YES, The REAL story here

STAY WITH THE BOAT!

Modern day boats (like this one) DON’T SINK! Flotation built into the hull keeps them from sinking.

As someone else said PFDs (Personal Flotation Device) “Life Jacket”.

Throw PFDs to the people in the water. On a boat as big (YUGE) as his, he MUST have many PFDs (required) on board.

Throw them a line. WHY jump into the water yourself?
