They jumped into the Atlantic Ocean

Explanation:

During the journey across the Atlantic, Olaudah Equiano describes what two of his "wearied countrymen" did which was to jump into the Atlantic Ocean because they preferred death than to be kept captive in such a manner and be treated less than dogs.
