In the video, which was shot on November 19, the teen lowers himself over the side of the boat and dangles perilously from the railing as his buddies watch, laughing.

After his friend helped him back aboard the ship, they posted video of the stunt on YouTube with the caption: "Let's get this viral."

The reaction has been fast and fierce with critics blasting the teen as "crazy" and "moron."
