Cruises: What happens when a passenger goes overboard a cruise ship?
The 33-year-old cruise worker was found 26 miles outside of the search zone after falling from a Carnival Cruise ship near Cuba.
After 22 hours of searching 1,600 square miles, he was eventually found and a lifeboat was sent to rescue him.
He is currently in a stable condition after being treated onboard, with Carnival Cruise president Christine Duffy calling it “miraculous”.
