If one reads the article, it states that the 20 year old was DRUNK! His father chastised him, they argued, and he jumped.

Didn’t anyone ever warn this young man about the dangers of drunk diving? :-P

Drama boy mat not have known that there’s a strong slipstream along the hull of a ship that will pull you into the screws. And he may not have understood that stopping or turning a ship like that takes long enough that finding a man overboard is highly unlikely.

Excerpted from an International Business Times article, "Who Was Levion Parker? Florida Cruise Passenger Who Jumped to His Death from Royal Caribbean Cruise Ship Had Drunken Argument with Father":

"His dad was fussing at him for being drunk, I guess," fellow passenger Bryan Sims said.

"When we got to them, he said to his dad, 'I'll fix this right now.' And he jumped out the window in front of us all."

It remains unclear how Levion could have been drunk, considering that the minimum age for alcohol consumption on Royal Caribbean ships during sailings originating in North America or the Caribbean is 21.

I suspect there will be lawyers getting involved in this.
