Royal Caribbean has banned a group from Canada for life after one jumped from a balcony on the 11th floor of Symphony of the Seas while being filmed by the others.
The cruise line said it is also considering legal action following the ‘stupid and reckless’ stunt.
The group was kicked off the ship after 27-year-old Nick Naydev, from Vancouver, leapt into the sea while the ship was in Nassau, Bahamas.
He landed in the sea, more than 100 feet below.
His friends had filmed him climbing onto the railing, laughing as he balanced on the edge, then jumping. He posted the short video on Instagram, where it has received more than 157,000 views
In a statement, Royal Caribbean told USA Today: "This was stupid and reckless behaviour and he and his companions have been banned from ever sailing with us again. We are exploring legal action."
The cruiseline declined to say what form the legal action could take or how many passengers were involved.
