Great informative video. For next, do AH-1Z please, because my country just bought some from US, so it would be great to know more about them ... Or C-5M Super Galaxy, that plane is just amazing.
Speaking as someone who was on a boat with mechanical issues 140 miles offshore, it was a huge relief when the USCG jet found us and maintained contact until the USCGC Seahawk arrived from Carabelle, FL. The Seahawk crew checked out our issue, tried to get our engines started and eventually took us under tow to Panama City. I know that the 5 of us on that boat, and our families, are most appreciative of the USCG and everything that they do for all of us. Great video, Sam.
I'm an avid swimmer myself, but that takes nerves of steel to jump the middle of the ocean from a helicopter. I can't even imagine trying to rescue someone out there. As always, love your production quality; you are a true master of your craft.
I'm a veteran of the coast guard and I thought I was a good swimmer. Lol I was proved wrong . I didn't do ast but I was a BM which while we were training we have our own rescue swimmer course but it's just from a boat instead of a helo . So it's a milder version
20 Yr US Marine here, these Coasties are friggen bad ass. Trained with some of their pilots in flight school and they were sharp, very professional folks. I've seen the videos on their rescue swimmers and I'm just in awe. As someone who wants to get a water survival instructor cert, I watch their content whenever it drops. Having to put your butt on the line and rescue people in varying conditions is inspiring. Cheers from San Diego!
Eight years retired from the Coast Guard as a AMT/Flight Mechanic and I found myself right back to the countless number of rescues I was a part of. Even still remember the commands/dialog as I found myself repeating as the hoisting was commencing.
Thank you for your service. You guys usually aren't getting shot at, but holy hell it takes balls to fly into a freaking storm and rescue people. Absolute hat off and I have massive respect for the coast guard.
i remember back during hurricane sandy when i lived right next to the beach, the entire area was flooded and it looked like the apocalypse or something. When the coast guard and national guard helicopters decended to help rescue people it was like watching angels come down, it was a feeling you can never understand until you see it yourself. i will never forget it, thank you guys, you are heroes :>
Absolutely incredible Sam! Literally my favorite piece you've done. I love everything about the H-60 and what an incredible way to portray our amazing men and women who serve in the USCG. Keep it up!
Coastie here, I've never heard anyone say this and it seems like all these comments are respecting us. For me the army is my most respected branch. I appreciate you!!
Never thought much about the Coast Guard but if anyone ever watched Deadliest Catch, then you know how elite and badass these guys are. The show always do a really good job of portraying that to the viewers and highlight how important they are
I have a friend stationed at USCG Air Station Sacramento. Great group of guys flying the C27 primarily and the only fixed wing air station on the west coast. He's told me some pretty hairy stories. Thanks for highlighting this Sam. The "Coasties" don't get a lot of pub, but they do work and it's hard work.
There are fixed wing aircraft (C-130's) at AIRSTA Kodiak, AK and AIRSTA Barber's Point, HI. You are correct that the C27 is only based on the West coast out of AIRSTA Sacramento.
Thanks for these videos, Sam. Not a member of the armed forces myself, but I love seeing them in action and representing the best of America. Thank you!
December 1999 I as on a fishing charter out of Virgina Beach with my Son and some friends when at 4:50 in the morning and Southeast of Rudie Inlet our boat hit what was later determined to be a buoy that the SEALs used. It was grey and rose 4-5 feet out of the water. t didn't show up on radar and had no lights or reflectors. It stopped a 58' sport fishing boat that was traveling around 23-25 knots like a hitting a brick wall. There was a 4x8 foot hole in the starboard bow that ended at the bulkhead of a stateroom and the bow stateroom. A giant car carrying ship stopped to render assistance. The Coast Guard was spinning up a helicopter but canceled the aircraft after knowing we were safe but still sent a 47' rescue boat like the one in the video. The Coast Guard crew even brough us back to the inlet off of the ship. There are no words that can adequately praise these men and women for the job they do. P.S., because the captain shored up the bulkhead to the engine room the boat was saved and still fishes to this day though it has had quite a few upgrades and several repower events.
Another exciting and educational video; thanks. The USCG is part of Homeland Security and as mentioned serves a multipurpose role of both rescue and protection. A shoutout to who ever jumped in the water and followed Sam through both the training and simulate rescue. 👍
I am a viewer from the UK, I have been hoisted into a Wessex (S-58) on a training exercise. I have huge admiration for the US Coastguard and everything they do. This video as excellent, good effort by you and Coastguard. You could have dobe several vidos focusing on different parts of this unit and what they do, they would all have been hugely enternainng. Many thanks for this video.
🔥🔥🔥 To the CGAS-EC crew, USCG, and Sikorsky THANKS to you for your service and for trusting Sam and team, to share your story. Sam so glad you are not done at "GOOD", you always throw it into full gear all the way to EPIC !!! Always AIMing HIGH, way to go SAM !!! 😎
Sam, this is by far one of my favorite videos of yours, honestly probably my favorite. From the MH-60 crew consisting of 2 pilots, one rescue swimmer, and a mechanic to the rigorous training endured by those in the rescue swimmer program, I've learned something new about the USCG today. The rescue scene was really well done and informative too! Thank you for sharing this! Also, for an idea for a future video: Have you considered doing a video on the United States Space Force and what they do on a regular basis? Maybe you've thought about it but I wanted to give you a suggestion anyways. :)
Sam your videos never disappoint. Kudos to you for doing these challenging and dangerous exercises. Big shoutout to the talented and courageous Coast Guard teams doing these rescues. 👏
This is one of your best episodes. So many things going on and so many amazing angles. Bet this was a real adventure. The USCG doesn't get a lot of publicity but they do many, many incredible things!
Amazing! You see clips of these rescues on the news, but really don’t know the training and preparation necessary to carry out the mission. This was both educational and thrilling.
Awesome video Sam, definitely takes guts to throw yourself into the ocean like that so thanks for doing it for the sake of this video, and thanks to all the women and men of the Coast Guard who do this everyday to keep us safe!
Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but the movie "The Guardian", with Kevin Costner and Ashton Kutcher, that came out in 2006, shows the intensity that goes on in the training for rescue swimmers.
as a proud resident of EC, with my father being a federal firefighter on the base, this was awesome to see, and as a matter of fact, i was actually on base at the time of this video being recorded getting a haircut with my dad, if you ever go back to the base, go to the military exchange, they have a milkshake maker where you put the cup in and they are awesome, sorry for the long sentence, keep up the good work!!!
The part where the pilot acknowledges the distress call and give ‘em the ETA! That gave me chills. I can’t imagine how it feels being in that situation and hearing those words over the radio! Great job
Wow, that was intense. That was a great demonstration of what the Coast Guard is capable of in these emergency situations. Thanks for putting together such a great video!
This was so incredible to see! I always love seeing helicopters being used around the world, especially for rescue missions, and I can’t think of a better organization to use those incredible machines than the US Coast Guard! 🎉😂 I absolutely loved the video! The Coast Guard Hass to be one of my favorite branches of the US military 🇺🇸 combining ships, planes and helicopters 🚁 🎉😂
I have great respect for ALL Coasties. The smallboat station I served at had over 1,000 SAR cases a year. It’s amazing how many areas of responsibility the USCG has. Search & Rescue, Maritime Law Enforcement, Hazmat, Drug Interdiction, Homeland Security, AIDS to Navigation, Ice Breaking and more. BZ my Coastie brothers and sisters!
Wow ! I work as E.M.T my all life and I always got the same respect to the seamen and rescue swimmers ... That's a f.....g job but so grateful on land , so , at sea .... A big big thanks for all rescuers , volunteers or / and professionals , all over the world . ❤
W.o.w. You and your team have such an incredible talent! It’s wonderful you took all that time and effort. I hope your video can help portray just how much the ocean should be respected. Thanks so much for highlighting what we do and coming out to play!
Sam, I’m so impressed with your stories and this was no exception. Your videos are so interesting and informative. Thanks for sharing your stories with us all and kudos for all those who serve world wide ❤
I feel very honored by this video. I'm 19 and have been in the Coast guard since I was 17, and everyone thinks we do nothing and that it's the easiest branch. Thanks so much for spending a day with these coasties!!
can never forget the people working 24/7 behind the scenes, responding to dozens of calls a day, my fathers one of those people, i see a lot of what happens in the command centers
beginning to end, this is soo well fucking executed 👏👏👏 the flying, the b-roll, the sound design, and the edits here are absolutely top notch. great seeing edits like this come together
Thank you Sam for all of the great videos you put out really do enjoy them and learning so much about the Armed Forces. Thank you Sam and love all of the videos. Thanks for the hard work you do. ❤👍
Awesome video Sam, my son and I love watching your videos. You and your film crew are doing an awesome job showing what the the U.S. military is all about, keep up the good work!
As a tech diver and CCR instructor that also happens to do video I was looking forward to watch your video since you posted that about it for the first time.
Great video and a great opportunity! One of my favorite movies is The Guardian. I wish there was more Coast Guard type movies and this video certainly fits in. Wish you included the line of the rescue swimmer (not sure if they said it here) but "I'm a Coast Guard rescue swimmer and I'm here to help you!" probably one of the most powerful lines you could hear as you are floating out in the ocean.
I'm so glad I was able to watch this video. Really got me fueled up. Planning on enlisting as a reservist soon can't wait for that to be my hopeful job
Sam, This was an amazing video. What a great experience doing this with the Coast Guard. Yours is so professional and fun to watch. I watched a series on youtube called Protecting Our Waters | Coast Guard Rescue Series from DangerTV and loved it. Keep up the amazing content.
This video is absolutely amazing and interesting! Good job, Sam! Are you still planning to publish a video about USAFA admissions for international cadets?
Wonderful video and thank you for highlighting the USCG, people tend to overlook us from time to time. Next you need to come out to Astoria, OR and the Columbia River. This is know as the graveyard of the Pacific and is where we train our MLB Coxswain's.
Great video! You should do another video on Coast Guard boat crews. Especially the surf men who drive boats into breaking surf to save lives. Thanks for shining a well deserved light on the USCG!
Well done Same, for bringing such videos about rescueing lives on the coast. Moreover, these are heroic taskes often done by coast gurd all over the globe. Above all, i'm by far really thrild watching such incredible videos of yours. As always keep up u incrdible journey and thrilled audience with balanced photages.
I was reading the short story "They Call Me Crazy" by Gary Paulson with my 7th graders and we ended up watching this video in class to learn about the search and rescue team. Thank you.
Being in wide open water is actually terrifying. Specifically if you’re alone. I never plan on it 😂but if it ever happened… I know the CG are badass and would come for me. Literally through hell and high water ❤ They’re so professional and compassionate.
24/7 there is a lone radio watchstander on the dog watch listening on 16 while the rest of the unit sleeps. Loneliest job in the world. But all they need is a mayday call and a location and the entire shore station lights up. Best deal the taxpayer ever got.
Such an honor getting to highlight the incredible work done by the U.S. Coast Guard. Let me know what video you want to see next! 👇🏼
Experience life on a Carrier, DP did it - you surely can aswell!
Please do USAF Security Forces. Military Police in general is super interesting.
Do C-17 or C-5 next! But I want to see a lot of Air Force jobs that most people don’t know off,
Great informative video. For next, do AH-1Z please, because my country just bought some from US, so it would be great to know more about them ... Or C-5M Super Galaxy, that plane is just amazing.
Be Sure to do Military Police of any branch they are the b est also keep up the work i enjoy watching the videos!

to opposite things, the skies and the seas working together to make something greater is incredible
Don't wanna be the ackshully guy but it's a Jayhawk, the Navy operates the Seahawk.

@@michaelalfier1053 i love the US! It’s an honor to do my part.

why did it sound SO scripted though
@@tonyvelasquez6776 it was just THAT good 🤷♂️
@learningwithlanden I mean I like the vidyas but it would be better if it weren't so clear that the DOD was like MUST SAY THIS
6:54 "A hero for a few moments." No -- these swimmers are heroes for life. Incredible
It's really refreshing that there is attention for all of the people that make this work, and not only the pilots.
Nothing but love and respect for these brave men and women. You couldn't get me in the middle of the ocean. I've seen JAWS...No Thank You.
I served in the Coast Guard. I was stationed in Alaska and then on a 378 ft ship out of New York. Loved my job !
Served and proud to be A coastie.vet.
Absolutely incredible Sam! Literally my favorite piece you've done. I love everything about the H-60 and what an incredible way to portray our amazing men and women who serve in the USCG. Keep it up!
That means a lot!
As someone in the Army, the Coast Guard is probably my most respected branch, more so than my own. They are seriously under appreciated.
My first 10 yrs were in the Army. I transferred to the Coast Guard and did my last 15 yrs until I retired. Never regretted either.
Coastie here, I've never heard anyone say this and it seems like all these comments are respecting us. For me the army is my most respected branch. I appreciate you!!

You file a claim with the govn? I would!!
I just saw this and was wondering the same@@cwr8618
Guardian was the movie that showed how hard it is to be a rescue swimmer, much respect to USCG
Which movie?
@@SaurabhpratapSSingh the guardian
Such a good movie

I have been told by survivors, that hearing that when they were about to quit gave them hope and the will to survive knowing we were coming for them.
I braved the ocean for years and made it. Heavy duty SAR and loved it.
