Going down with the ship

[Crazyguy36]

I was fighting a lv 30 ship which I can take normally, but I have so many friends that come to my Galleon, and shoot at everything (it really gets on my nerves). But to the point, it snk my ship and as it went down, I was still in 3rd person, and I ran around in circles as my ship went down and ended up in a wierd place that only showed the sky. I tried teleporting but it said I was in jail. Logging off and coming back on fixed the problem though. Has this happened to anyone else, if so do you know how to do this glitch.
