According to Yahoo News, a Melbourne man has died after going overboard on Disney Cruise Line’s Wonder ship.

The Victoria Police confirmed a report about the 73-year-old man, and a spokesperson has said, “It is understood the man died after he jumped from a cruise liner into waters in the Tasman Sea on Saturday, about 4:30 AM.”
The man’s name has not been released, and his body has not been discovered yet. According to CruiseMapper, the ship initiated a search operation, turned back, and navigated for about 5 hours in the area where the incident was reported. The crew on board used thermal-imaging equipment to scan the water, and the ship’s captain later confirmed that the individual could not be found.
