MIAMI, Fla. (WKRC) - A passenger died after jumping from the world's largest cruise ship soon after it left port Sunday morning.

According to The New York Post, Coast Guard officials confirmed to its reporters that an unidentified man leapt from Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas cruise ship. According to the publication, citing officials, it happened on the first night of a week-long voyage from Florida to Honduras.

“The cruise ship deployed one of their rescue boats, located the man and brought him back aboard,” Coast Guard officials told The Post. “He was pronounced deceased. Beyond assisting in the search, the U.S. Coast Guard did not have much involvement in this incident."

Per The Post, officials said the ship's crew notified the Coast Guard right away before launching its search and rescue operation, which lasted about two hours. Citing a report, the passenger was brought back to the ship in critical condition, but later succumbed to his injuries.

According to Royal Caribbean's official website, the Icon of the Seas is nearly 1,200 long and stands 196 feet above the water line.
