Tyler Barnett Missing
As noted in the TikTok video, the 28-year-old man is the father of twins and was from Houma, Louisiana. The cruise set sail on November 13, and he was last seen on Sunday night at around 11:40 pm. He allegedly went into the casino for a bit before going back to his room at 12:27 am. However, his family reported that his bed was allegedly never slept in.
The Coast Guard has supposedly since been searching the water with aircraft and cruise officials have been announcing his name on the ship, also going door to door. As of this moment, it’s unclear what happened to Barnett although his family denies that he jumped, as noted here. Instead, the family claims that alleged video footage shows him slipping ever the edge. As outlined in this article, it is alleged that a “granddaughter confirmed that Barnett climbed over the edge of the rail and jumped on the lifeboat.” However, it seemingly appears as though he walked on it for a bit before appearing to slip off.
