Les titres marrants de la presse norvégienne (sans commentaires) :
"Un « investisseur » milliardaire norvégien (une des plus grosse fortune norvégienne) meurt dans un accident de bateau dans les Caraïbes au large des îls Cayman"

Les lingots qui l’ont envoyé par le fond ?
Apparemment après être devenu milliardaire grâce au pétrole, en ayant dirigé un certain nombre de groupes et fondations - en passant par la société pétrolière et gazière Noreco - il se serait lancé dans l’eau, et c’est pas une blague.
Apparemment, la porte-parole de la police des Îles Cayman a un parcours intéressant.

In a press statement Tuesday, Royal Cayman Islands Police Service spokeswoman Jacqueline Carpenter said two men, ages 58 and 41, were thrown from their vessel for reasons “yet to be determined” at around 6 p.m. Monday.
Si c’est bien elle, elle était le mois dernier à Kiev pour superviser les élections locales du 25 octobre.
Ukrainian ’vacation’ for Cayman resident : : Cayman Compass

Perhaps Jacqueline Carpenter has just seen too much sun, sea and sand since arriving here in November.
[…]
The American-born Cayman Islands resident began a three-week “vacation” Thursday taking her to Ukraine, which boasted a high of 36 degrees Fahrenheit (2 degrees Celsius) that day.
Prior to moving to Cayman, Ms. Carpenter worked with the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), a non-governmental organization representing 57 member states, including the U.S. and Russia. She has done both field work and statistical analysis for a number of election observation missions around the former Soviet socialist republics.
“I was in Azerbaijan from 2009-2011, Moldova in 2011 until 2014. Last year, I was in two missions to Ukraine after the hostilities started,” she said, adding that she did election observation work in both the Ukrainian presidential and parliamentary elections in 2014. “These places require Russian language skills … not a lot of Americans have that.”
L’annonce de recrutement pour le poste de porte-parole est du printemps 2015 (date limite 24/04/15)

@la_taupe, je pense que la traduction correcte de l’article est plutôt, il a été éjecté de son bateau (puissant hors-bord) ainsi que son passager.

The 58-year-old, who according to friends, owned property at The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman and hoped to retire to the Cayman Islands, was thrown from his boat along with another man around 6 p.m.
[…]
The other man, 41, who was thrown from the boat, did not need hospital treatment. The vessel, understood to be a 34-foot speedboat with three 350 horsepower engines, was later seen spinning out of control, with no driver, before coming to a stop in the mangroves.
Apparemment, le passager a survécu (ce n’est pas très clair).
haha @simplicissimus c’est rigolo parce que j’avais employé le terme « se lancer dans » au sens de « se lancer dans une affaire », ce qu’il a fait avec l’eau comme avec le pétrole, au final :)
Aussi, mais c’est pas surprenant, tellement riche, qu’il était devenu philantrope en organisant avec sa fondation Aqua Nirvana, des événement caritatifs, comme dernièrement avec The Great Race for Grace :
