Some crazy and very scary news coming in from the deck of The Norwegian Pearl, the enormous cruise ship Mad Decent is hosting their 4-day EDM boat party on, sailing from Miami to Cozumel.
Reportedly, a female partygoer has gone overboard somewhere off the gulf coast of Mexico, and a search and rescue is in progress.
Someone jumped off our boat, and we're currently circling the gulf looking for her…

Holy shit. Our own editor, Rebecca Martinson, happens to be on Mad Decent’s EDM cruise and checked in with us when the news started making the rounds on the ship as well.
Too terrible. As of now, the search has been going on for over an hour and remains ongoing. All passengers have reportedly been asked to stay in their rooms for a head count.
Even more terrible, this looks to be the last Tweet from the Mad Decent Boat party account.
