“Pirates Of The Caribbean” actor and surfing legend Tamayo Perry was attacked by a shark and died as a result in Oahu, Hawaii, over the weekend. He was 49.
Perry, who appeared in Disney’s fourth installment of the “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie franchise, was taking a break from lifeguarding duty when the attack occurred near Goat Island on Sunday, <a href="https://stabmag.com/news/iconic-pipeline-surfer-tamayo-perry-killed-by-shark-in-hawaii/">Stab magazine</a> reported.
The actor — who is not only an ocean safety lifeguard but also surfing instructor — was found by local surfers off Mālaekahana Beach on Oahu’s North Shore. When Perry was located he was missing an arm and leg, the outlet noted.
He was transported to the shore on Malaekahana Beach by emergency personnel who tried to resuscitate the surfer but moments later pronounced Perry dead.

Following the fatal attack, shark warning signs were put up in the area by ocean safety personnel, the <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/06/24/us-news/surfing-legend-and-pirates-of-the-caribbean-actor-tamayo-perry-killed-in-shark-attack-in-hawaii/">New York Post</a> noted.
Acting Honolulu ocean safety chief Kurt Lager said, “He’s well known on the North Shore. He’s a professional surfer known worldwide.”
“Tamayo’s personality was infectious and as much as people loved him, he loved everyone else more,” he added, noting that Perry was “a lifeguard loved by all.”
“Tamayo was a legendary waterman and highly respected,” Honolulu Mayor Rick Blangiardi said, calling the surfer&#8217;s death “a tragic loss.”
Perry started his lifeguarding career in 2016 and worked as a lifeguard on the North Shore until the time of his death.
Besides keeping people safe in the ocean waters, Perry also appeared in several blockbuster movies such as the 2003 film “Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle,” 2002 film “Blue Crush,” “Lost,” “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides,” and “Hawaii Five-0,” the Post noted.
Perry, who was born in 1975 in Hawaii, took to water and surfing from a very early age. As young as 12, the young surfer became known as the “up-and-coming local boy who had to borrow surfboards because he had no sponsors,” according <a href="https://www.eos.surf/encyclopedia/perry-tamayo">the Encyclopedia of Surfing</a>.
