A heart-stopping incident unfolded aboard the Icon of the Seas last Sunday (July 27) when a Royal Caribbean passenger jumped into an infinity pool in a desperate attempt to retrieve his lost sunglasses—only to flip headfirst over the pool’s edge.
The video shows the man dangling precariously over the glass barrier of the Hideaway Pool, an adults-only area located on Deck 15 of what’s been called “the world’s largest cruise ship.”
As the man waves his right arm over the side, apparently searching for the sunglasses, he lifts his legs to gain leverage: a mistake that caused him to lose balance and flip entirely over the railing.
