Pirates of the Caribbean film series star and professional lifeguard Tamayo Perry has died following a shark attack in Hawaii. The actor, also known for The Bridge, Blue Crush and Hawaii Five-0, was surfing at Malaekahana Beach on the Hawaiian island of Oahu when he died on Sunday afternoon. Emergency services were called to a person being “fatally injured by a shark” and used a jet ski to retrieve Perry’s body from the ocean.
“Tamayo’s personality was infectious, and as much as people loved him, he loved everyone else more,” he said. “Our condolences go out to Tamayo’s family.” In Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, the fourth in the series, also starring Penelope Cruz and Johnny Depp, Perry portrayed one of the buccaneers. He had also been seen in Lost, which was filmed in Oahu, and Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle. Mayor Rick Blangiardi called Perry’s death “a tragic loss”.
