Folks are going overboard on both sides, I think that very much looks like a shark or some other large marine animal that surfaces near the boat and causes him to turn around but I don't see anything remotely "clear" about an attack. So while I don't think it's fair to say there is "no evidence" of any shark in the video, I also don't think there's anything which is really compelling that he got ATTACKED on camera.

Apparently this is a long running feud between some of these posters we are observing. They are just using the shark/no-shark positions as pretexts to yell at each other.

I see what I see, which is a shark. But in fairness, LSUAngel posted some really ridiculous stuff in the Madison Brooks thread that really damaged her credibility on this site. So, a lot of people won’t agree that they see a shark or give it much time just because she’s a proponent of the theory.
Thanks for the background. I don't see any solid evidence of an attack occurring in the video, but I was really scratching my head as to why people wouldn't acknowledge that it looks a hell of a lot like a shark/large marine animal surfacing by the boat (after which Cam instantly starts swimming in the opposite direction). Now, it makes sense if this is carry over antagonism between posters from past threads.

Instead of punching a shark in the nose it seems the best thing to do if you are attacked by a shark is just shout "the odds are low!" at him. Seriously though, as I've said, I'm not saying it's 100% a shark by the boat there (at what was the 3 second mark of the first video) but after seeing the slow down and the new video I think it's the people saying a shark isn't a legit possibility who are wish casting. I think it's still highly unclear what specifically happened to him but that does look like a large marine animal that popped up by the boat, after which he almost immediately turned around and went in the other direction.

Respectfully you need to go back a few dozen pages, there was quite a bit of mocking of the idea that there was a shark involved in any way. I don't see everything some folks say they see in terms of an attack, but that looks like a marine animal in the water to me at that spot that was the 3 second spot of the prior video and can be seen a little more clearly in this new longer video. I wouldn't say it's 100% but there's a good chance it is and Cam does turn around and head in the opposite direction right after it appears in front of him.

That was a Shark my friends. One of the worst places he could have jumped. They will hang around ships like that also with items such as food/trash being thrown overboard.
I agree it's as credible a theory as any other, and the fact that Bahamians in news articles have confirmed they were shark infested waters when asked rather than throw water on the idea confirms they think it's a very legit possibility.

almost looks like a head/snout of a dolphin in the last picture i posted
Whatever it is or may be, it's directly in his line of sight, and then he almost immediately turns around and starts heading in the opposite direction.

what is going on just above and below "any of our kids"
That's the part that on the other video (and this video) have always reasonably looked like it COULD be a shark or other large marine animal to me.
New, slightly longer footage linked below. Honestly looks even more like a shark in that same spot (that was the 3 second mark in the other video). It's not 100% it's a shark at that spot but it's a reasonable position that it is a shark or another large marine animal. Again, that's a different question from whether he was attacked, but it seems like it very well could have been a shark that spooked him and made him change directions.

That’s the problem. No one was aware
It’s a bad look bc no one was in charge on the decks and every man overboard protocol calls for as many readily available flotation devices to be dispensed
I’m not saying anybody should be making money off this but if you have 400+ 18 year olds drinking on a boat. Overboard safety should be a priority… it doesn’t seem at the moment that the crew was prepared for this possibility..
That’s all I’m getting to..
It's a 21 second video not sure you can draw all of those conclusions from it. Regardless, even if all of that is true, which for the sake of argument, I will assume it is, it's still 99% the fault of the kid.

No safety briefing
No drop down or skiffs launched. Or even available that I’m aware of.
No visible crew on the different decks.
No life rings readily available
No crew getting/ throwing life vests. No one was in charge outside of the wheel house
The list goes on..
There’s also the question of the weather. And how many others boats scraped their plans that evening
Lawsuits aren’t always about money.
99% of the fault is the kid's. If they recover a cent it will be a crime.
You thought they were saying that if Cameron Robbins were the judge and jury then he would have been a hung jury, if you can smell what the Rock is cooking there.

Look at the first 2 seconds between the kid and the ship. Same type of lighting and movement. Could just be swells also.
It could be swells possibly. I'm not saying it is a shark at the 10-13 second mark of that slowed down video, I just don't think it's an unreasonable take. It looks an awful lot like a big fish/shark would near the surface and makes a motion that a fish/shark would.

I thought the shark theory was just the internet being dramatic at first, but if you look at the 10 to 13 second mark of this slowed down video, I don't think it's unreasonable in the slightest to conclude that's a shark or some other large marine animal. Now that doesn't mean it attacked him, that's a separate question, but it's entirely possible that is a shark in that segment of the video linked below, and it WOULD account for him almost immediately turning and heading in the opposite direction.
