Wow, I remember Daniel well when he became famous(at least in Germany) in 2002. I was 24 at that time and always admired him for being able to use the media for his purposes , he is a a very clever guy. But in this cold water...

"A total of four ships and two aircraft together scanned an area of 1227 square nautical miles for 80 hours. "Unfortunately, no signs of Mr. Küblböck were found," said spokesman Mark Cough. Because of the short survival time in the cold water, the hard decision had been made to stop the search."

"The Canadian Armed Forces said in a statement: “Unfortunately, no sign of Mr. Küblböck was found and given the short survivability time due to the temperature of the water at this time of year, the difficult decision was made to end the search.”

The search had covered 1,227 square nautical miles, CBC reported, and lasted for 80 hours. It involved four ships and two aircraft. Holland America’s cruise ship Zuiderdam also helped with the search, until Canadian Coast Guard ships relieved it. The search was ended around 11 a.m. NT on Monday."

"A witness has said they saw someone throw themselves off the ship’s fifth deck around 6 a.m., The Sun reported."

"Just about a month before he went missing, Kueblboeck had posted on his official fan club’s Facebook page, saying that he had endured intense bullying as a child, The Sun reported. He said the bullying had affected him “deeply in my soul.”

"He wrote: “Dear fans. Unfortunately, I still do not feel better mentally and physically. I have yet to cope with this pain of the past months.”
"His father, Gunter, is hoping that somehow his son is fine."

That is not accurate. From all the reports I have read, he claimed he endured bullying at his acting class in the recent months. Not that he didn't have a troubled childhood but I think the Sun misunderstood the Facebook post.

MOO I think he probably experienced bullying as a teen, too, but it was recent bullying that contributed to his current sadness. I think he was struggling with some identity related matters and probably for some time. Perhaps all it took was someone on the ship seeing him dressed as a woman and passing him a dirty or disgusted look.

Google translated from German Huff Post article:

Google Translate

"Küblböck sang in his cabin, uttering shrill cries, talking to herself in a female and male voice. He addressed my mother as 'Hello Mum'. A bit over the top but still ok. "

► As the passenger of the "Bild" said, it had become increasingly louder in Küblböck's cabin from 4 September. The singer should have rampaged and beaten against the connecting door.
