The Coast Guard rescuer who pulled him from the water, Richard Clark Hoefle, said that when he reached Grimes, the overboard man immediately collapsed into the rescue swing."This is an exceptionally rare case," Ryan Graves, a petty officer in public affairs with the 8th District, toldshortly after the rescue."It's really nothing short of a Thanksgiving miracle to be able to pick somebody up after that long in the water without any sort of flotation device.

"Guests should never climb up on the rails. The only way to go overboard is to purposefully climb up and over the safety barriers," Lupoli added.Grimes was last seen aboard the Carnival Valor at 11 p.m. local time on November 23, when he left his sister at the ship's bar to go to the restroom, according to a statement from Carnival.
