I was just riveted to the man walking to the back of the ship. Then he jumps into the ocean at 1:30 am in 20 ft. Waves. All 5 crewmen. Damn, that was crazy. How the Pilots hover in the wind ad high seas for the Rescue. Amazing. Then 1 rescue Swimmer grabbing each one. The flight Mechanic getting each one in the Helicopter safely. What a show, and inspiration. Great Coastguard!!! Kodiak is awesome. People need to watch this stuff instead of the daily dose of bad News.
The cinematography and the professionalism in these vids are stellar. The teamwork involved in rescuing and caring for the survivors shows the dedication and just how highly trained the Coast Guard personnel are. Much respect and God bless all of you.
When one thinks about the immense fitness training these guys go through just to apply, a fitness that must be maintained permanently, the skills training they undergo, then the Coast Guard training before they ever do a rescue...you put that all together and then these people literally put themselves in life threatening situations almost daily....for others! If that's not the epitome of selflessness I don't know what is? There is only one word that adequately describes every one of them...HEROES. My ultimate respect to you all.
I served in the Coast Guard in Alaska and those were the best years of my life. rescues, AIDS to Navigation, Ice Breaking , visiting every port there. Beautiful Wild Country with Seas shaped like Mountains. Loved every Minute.
This episode makes one appreciate how good the Coasties are and how good the helicopter pilots who have to operate at altitude are. Mad respect for Coasties and PGHM.
I have been to quite a few Highland Games in my time. Those Coasties, rank amateurs at Games events have my deepest respect!!! It is not all about brute strength! Timing, balance and positioning are vital. They did damn well . I hope they were allowed “a wee dram” when the events were over! Bravo Zulu Coasties! My former hat is off to you.
These Coastguard Men and women, are just remarkable. I am just in Awe, at what they do to save lives. The weather is so Adverse in Alaska. The dangerous conditions the pilots fly in and Rescuers saving lives in. These Men and women are Heroes. I wish everyone would watch this show, instead of the trash on tv. Great show!!!!
i have to say these fishermen amaze me with their professional calmness in a treacherous situation. we're a boating family..leisure, & we've been caught in sudden squalls (nothing like this even) & when im starting to get scared, i look to my dad who remains calm, upbeat & knows what to do....hes my hero too. oh i came back to of course add that the CG are always amazing & i tear up when i see how they risk themselves to save others.
You guys are all heros in my book. You save lives by the dozen, probably by the hundred..that man who's trachy tube failed is a walking angel. Hope he knows how lucky he was... hope feedback went back to the original parties, maybe their equipment needed updating???? Well done everyone!!! Belated cheers from Western Australia 🦘🦘🦘🦘
There is nothing more frightening and terrifying than not being able to breathe. Or seeing someone who can't breathe. I had a collapsed lung, head injury, broken ribs both sides, a/c separation right shoulder and broke my back in two places at age 56! Careflite. I hit the ground with the force of a ton when my Arabian mare slipped at full gallop. Not being able to breathe on top of that much pain is beyond words. I'm 62 now, walk like Fred Sanford, but I don't care...I can walk, lol.
I watch all these shows thanks to you DANGER 😁 totally appreciate anything to do with Alaska and Australia 😀👍 Watching this whilst awaiting the next "Outback Rangers" ep 🤣🤣💞🇦🇺
If you have a Bougie handy, it should be pretty easy to replace the tube. slide the bougie down the broken tube, deflate the cuff and remove, slide the new one down the bougie and inflate the cuff. Then confirm proper placement.
I love this show and the Coast Guard are bad ass. Just wondering how many medics out there thought when they said the ET tube “Sheared off” it was actually just the little plastic piece between the tube and BVM. Can’t tell you how many times that thing stays on the BVM when you pull it off the tube! 😂
Nothing like jumping out of a perfectly good bird quite like holding the target during live fire training 🙀 concrete wall separating or not! Thank you for my safety & freedom 💕🇺🇸🌎
I wanna use some of those range day tips! My buddy wouldn’t stop bragging about his standing accuracy, so I made him go reset the targets I noticed he was out of breath an instantly had him shoot a group, it went from 2in grouping to 9+
My hat comes off for y'all because y'all risk ur lifes to go and safe people in need and I give y'all a A+ be safe and be careful of what y'all do each and every day to safe people that u don't no
Everyone knows the risk. HARD LIFE TO LIVE FOR MONEY TO PAY BILLS. EVERYONE IN THIS VIDEO HAS A THUMBS UP. Anyone that has a negative comment to make, try walking in their shoes. If you want to talk the talk I DARE you to walk the walk. It is so easy to talk chit behind a computer. This comment is to Kathy Nelson.
That fishing boat captain was as calm as me typing this, in no way panicking he could die any minute there I'd be freaking out big time.no point but ah well.
You can hear the anxiety in his pauses though. He sounds like he's sighing and his words trailing. He's fighting like hell to keep his wits about him but he was absolutely terrified and anxious. I sound exactly like this guy when I'm in a life or death severe situation. I get weirdly calm and focused but my heart is definitely beating hard. When my friends are freaking out and crying after a car accident I'm looking after them and trying to calm them. Ironic thing is I have clinical chronic anxiety that I take medications for. Lol. I can't seem to handle social pressures and job stress and school stress but life and death actually terrifying situations...its like a switch goes off.
That captain said he was calling and calling and no one was answering sounds harrowing for that crew, not knowing if anyone will come to save them before the ship rolls. So glad the Coast Guard answered their call.
On March 02, 2022 I went into V Fib and could not get a breath no matter how hard I tried. The panic set in fast and I knew I was on my way out as the darkness was coming for me. Thankfully the EMS arrived just as I went Black and in full arrest. Next thing I was looking up with O2 on me. I coded again on the way to the hospital, and two more times after there. The culpret was two blood clots I developed from being Wheel chair bound ( double AKN amputee ). Now I have an ICD planted in my chest because they expect more in the future. The thing about not being able to breathe is you are totally helpless without intervention. The fear of knowing you are about to die, and all of the thoughts that go through your mind until you lose all conscientiousness. You cannot cry out for help, I was lucky there was my wife to call for help after I alerted her and The EMS got here in time. Never forget to tell the people you love that you do EVERYDAY!
There are dozens if not hundreds of laws around the country relating to SAR cases, more often then not if you being in need of rescue isnt your fault (you follow all proper safety precautions/not negligent) you wont get a bill. Pretty sure USCG doesnt charge for rescue either currently
@Marc B if coast guard rescues you, its free. If you are rescued by any other government entity (i.e. a sheriffs office or fire rescue service) it can depend on 2 things. The first is where you are (laws vary by state and county) and the second is if it isn't your fault (was negligence involved, etc.).
My guess is they had to go hard over to try and hold against the waves and it slammed past the stops and jammed, since they said it was "jammed" as opposed to not responding. Could also have been it just seized up if the seal lubrication had congealed in the conditions. If it had been a pump failure, or loss of hydraulics, I'd have thought it would just be flapping rather than jammed.
Been there-dun that. On my 34 ft schooner, left hi & dry @ the PARKING LOT in the ICWW. But I had the boat leaning the other way to aviod the waves crashing against the deck during the night. They were big and would have destroyed her, me & wife too.
You don't have a look of fear when you're having a seizure. After, sure, but during the seizure, you're not gonna be scared because you're gonna be unconscious. If you're awake during a seizure, you're not having a seizure. There are some exceptions, but....not many that come up in true medical emergencies. If there is a stroke, that seizure is gonna be caused by A. Increased ICP, or B. Lack of adequate blood flow to parts of the brain. Both of which are typically "You're unconscious(tonic-clonic)" seizures.
What is wrong with you? It takes special people to do what they do. Your talking kilts? Your an uneducated person making comments that has nothing to do about what they're trained to do. SAVING LIVES.
15:13 I have the same patch with the Afghanistan-American flag on his helmet, from my deployment. Looks like he mustve done some join NATO missions too.
As a young non-rate coastie we had the Coast Guard Commandant visit our base in Mobile, AL, it was Admiral Paul Yost, I was allowed to ask him a question from the audience and me being prior service US Army I posed the question about the odds of arming our aircrews, I was basically laughed at from the jerk Commandant and the other coasties. Guess what rate was developed just a few years prior to my retirement, you guessed it. 23:47 It just took them a while to figure out what I knew needed to be added to the mix.
If you’re in Alaska and beyond the Coast Guard’s capabilities they would most likely dispatch the Air Force 212th Rescue Squadron, pararescue airmen based out of Anchorage Alaska. The USAF PJ’s are trained to operate above 9,000 feet.
Their helo has a max altitude of 12,000’ I think when he called it high, he was meaning that the helo operates differently than they are used to at near sea level
Nothing like an ad coming on in the middle of a segment, where the intubation tube on a critical patient, fails. And in the ad it's an uptalking woman going on about feeling uncomfortable in her dance wear. I know, time for an ad blocker but, c'mon.
How many of these are paid actors. A helo ride for a sprained ankle seems pretty nuts, and that mother was like 'make sure the camera gets my good side'.
Does anyone have a clue what it takes to be COASTGUARD? Think first and do research what it takes to rescue lives. DO RESEARCH FIRST BEFORE YOU MAKE A COMMENT.
Talk about some hard core survival situation. That boat crew jumping overboard in the middle of the night in 20-30 foot waves...crazy.

"Barometer Mountain".... what a great name for a mountain!
18:29 Talk about landing on a postage stamp! Nice job, guys.
The Coast Guard is the best! Total respect for all of them.
Im thinking of moving to Juneau - nice to know when i'm out fishing or hunting there will be angels in the sky! Semper fi.
the smashed up VW Bug threw me for a loop. Looks like a weird traffic crash or something.
Yea it has me confused also lol
I thought someone went on the beach at the same time as the boat beached lol! My imagination was all over the place
It was on the fishing boat! lol
It rains vw’s in Alaska, I thought everyone knew about this.
Awesome! Thank you Coasties!
Damn those firefighters hiked up that mountain
Drama Queens
I don't know how these guys are not crying thanking these guys..
Love you guys many thanks
This was a great episode.
Hello Thank you for your service CG. Be safe out there people
If you have a Bougie handy, it should be pretty easy to replace the tube. slide the bougie down the broken tube, deflate the cuff and remove, slide the new one down the bougie and inflate the cuff. Then confirm proper placement.
Gotta protect those tubes!
you guys and girls are just amazing ....so s caring and professional omg beyond profesional xxxx
I love this show and the Coast Guard are bad ass. Just wondering how many medics out there thought when they said the ET tube “Sheared off” it was actually just the little plastic piece between the tube and BVM. Can’t tell you how many times that thing stays on the BVM when you pull it off the tube! 😂
Nothing like jumping out of a perfectly good bird quite like holding the target during live fire training 🙀 concrete wall separating or not! Thank you for my safety & freedom 💕🇺🇸🌎
Warriors of the sky!!
A great documentary about a great job❤
Random question. What chassis and scope mount was he using? I’ve got an M14 assigned as a DMR however I’d love to mount an optic.
I wanna use some of those range day tips! My buddy wouldn’t stop bragging about his standing accuracy, so I made him go reset the targets I noticed he was out of breath an instantly had him shoot a group, it went from 2in grouping to 9+
That’s awesome that he was using the bow thruster to steer but no way I’d be in 20-30 footers in a single engine boat.
Holy crap these guys have balls.
My hat comes off for y'all because y'all risk ur lifes to go and safe people in need and I give y'all a A+ be safe and be careful of what y'all do each and every day to safe people that u don't no

How much does that cost to get rescued?
That captain said he was calling and calling and no one was answering sounds harrowing for that crew, not knowing if anyone will come to save them before the ship rolls. So glad the Coast Guard answered their call.
Coast Guard Alaska you do a awesome job at saying lives 😅😅😅
I've fluke fished in heavier seas 🌊 nice ✌️
Poor woman! OMG! Moon Mountain Dean, her husband, seems way too calm!

Nothing on camera like THANK GOD THE COAST GUARD SAVED MY LIFE....
I hear people say that teachers are hero's, but compared to these rescue fellas there's nothing heroic about a teacher
Mother nature does not give a shit... the props i give these sailors and coast guard members for going toe to toe with her is crazy
I got 40/40 on the Army M16 qualifying range. I’ve done it three times now! I love the M16. The 300 meter target is my favorite!
what does that have to do with this
Creeper_Ninja_ Didn’t watch the video?
They spoke about qualifications with an M16. So that is what it has to do with.
Wow great job you guys are the best
Everytime I watch someone get rescued, it's amazing but I can't stop thinking about how much $$$$$ a rescue is going to cost.
Who gives a shit about money when it comes to a life. Smh

12:01 no mention of the car on its roof or boat recovery?
I still want to know why their boats steering went out
My guess is they had to go hard over to try and hold against the waves and it slammed past the stops and jammed, since they said it was "jammed" as opposed to not responding. Could also have been it just seized up if the seal lubrication had congealed in the conditions.

Why has the fishing boat got a car on it....!!!
I feel sad for the crushed Volkswagon Beetle.
Use the anchors and anchor it about ?

why didnt they put the stabilizers in ??

Two range days per week. Most LEOs get one range day a year, to requal. People forget USCG is a branch of the US military, as well as a Federal LEA.

It’s really surprising they don’t have a doctor on board.
308 Avenger they do when it’s necessary.
Wonder if it's 12 miles from the estimated spot.

18:10 so did they just drop off the cameraman, then took off and then tried land again? lol

i feel like the fire dept could have said "suspected sprain, just cant get her down safely", a lot less drama
You are right! Too much drama. It is not good TV the best tv has just the right amount of drama not this much. Alaska is crazy!
At 04:52 he says ‘no bueno’ - mexican, maybe illegal? Suspicious. Alaska is crazy
Sorry it is at 04:51 but the point stands!

@@BradenDJ thank you that makes sense
Takes balls to test a diy boat in those areas...
I like how they're calling 2,500 feet high altitude. I guess I'd be screwed up here at 9,700 feet if I needed their help.
If you’re in Alaska and beyond the Coast Guard’s capabilities they would most likely dispatch the Air Force 212th Rescue Squadron, pararescue airmen based out of Anchorage Alaska. The USAF PJ’s are trained to operate above 9,000 feet.

Why haven't you put a cutter encounter at frist call.
We all gonna ignore a smashed up red Beatle on the beach 🤣🤷🏽♂️
Imagine being air-lifted and put into an ambulance for a fucking ¨Sprained ankle¨ Like da fuck all I got was ice..
22:18 dudes body armor is on backwards
I understand that aircraft lose power with altitude, but come on, that mountain is hardly 1000 m (3300 ft).
Where did the car come from? Lol
It was on the deck of the ship under a tarp.
wait why did they have a car on the back?
transporting from one place to another,maybe a crwmember brought it, not completely unusual to move stuff like that especially up north

If the vessel had been properly maintained it wouldn't have loss steering.
