Johnson, and his brother, who is an officer in the United States Coast Guard, were on the cruise ship Disney Magic, and they arrived on the island September 5th.
They arrived in St. Maarten, where they boarded a vessel for a dive excursion. The dive excursion was with Dive Safari. They are known for their shark feeding dives. which many call a dangerous practice, due to the too close handling of animals who become used to being around humans, but are not tame.
This is not the first death with this dive excurion company, there are been a number of deaths, with the last being in December 2005.
He said that the victim had recorded 45 dives in the past and was very experienced.
The brother told police that he had been underwater with his brother, who indicated to him that he was going topside. The officer stayed below and surfaced a few minutes later.
At that time he saw others trying to resuscitate his brother, who had blood coming from his nose and was vomiting.
An autopsy will be performed.
