Incredible 😂
🤣same
I came to the comments just to see if someone noticed that. Glad I'm not alone.
I am very impressed with the young man who was in the rescue swimmer course. 21! Bless his heart - he knew his physical aspect was solid but not the mental; being able to identify that and be fine with walking away is impressive. You will go far, young man. I'm glad to be part of your experience!
You are a kind decent soul!
I respect Michael Culver for realizing he was in with his head under water literally and was not fit for that service. A prideful person might have forced on and put other's at risk. Hope life found you a better fit.
I think he can try again later when he's mentally ready to be a rescue swimmer.
I've encountered this in the fire department. You need to be 100% or you'll let yourself, team, and victims down. When I interviewed for the US Marshals they said the same thing. They actually said at the beginning of the session that, at any time, if people felt it wasn't for them (explaining the job, dangers, showing training, etc) then they weren't just okay with them leaving, they commended it. Forcing yourself to do that job does nobody a favor. Knowing your limitations is more important than pride.
Just because your dad/mom was military ready doesn't always mean you are.....and that's ok to admit that
My grandfather was in the army during WW2, my father was in Vietnam and retired as a Colonel and I just retired from 30 years in the army
@@jamesallen8433 thanks for your service
@@jamesallen8433 if you’re father is still with us please tell him I said welcome home !! God bless you and your family !
@joemullen3863 agreed. The way our soldiers coming home from Vietnam were treated was despicable. My dad was cussed and called names. So called friends no longer spoke to him. He lost his spot in college. It was plain despicable. And the real messed up thing is many of them didn't choose to go, they were drafted and had to go. He was a Sunday school teacher, school and Church bus driver, never drank or smoked, much less drugs, came back a cursing angry alcoholic who dabbled in drugs and stopped going to church and had to abandon his goal of being an architect. And all that is not even mentioning the poisoning that was done to many of them and the lingering medical issues. Anytime I see a Vietnam vet I tell them welcome home as well!
"This better not make it to U Tube" LOL
I'M WATCHING U!!
These videos make me feel so happy and amazed at what humans can do for one another. We need this now adays
God bless these rescuers. They are truly angels.
Air Sta Kodiak, HC-130 Drop master / Load master , 1988-1991, enjoyed my tour there, great people on / off base. Great memories. Retired Coastie.
Lol!!! ITS ON CZcams! Awesome job you guys! So very very proud
I was born on Kodiak on the base in 1981, my dad flew helicopters for the coast guard!
Your Nickname is chopper
Awesome!
GeT tO tHe ChOpPeR!
Thanks to him for his Service, and to you for your support, Sir.
Shoutout to Culver from Cartersville. Just a neighbor saying we're proud, and thankyou for your service.
I can't wait to go into Coast Guard. Graduating in two months! I am gonna try to get Alaska. I am a pretty strong swimmer so at least I got that in for me!
I wish you the best of luck! Hope you make it!
@@jessiel.9961 Thank you so much!☺
How’s it working out for you so far? Best of luck!!
Update??? Hope you got it!
@animalkingdom2871 did you get to go to Alaska? I'm about to be going into bootcamp in the next couple months and that's exactly where I want to go
Thank you for all you guys do. I have that same love for helping people. I love the smile i get afterwards. I have been a CNA for 10 years and a Medical Assistant for a year. And in 2023 I will be in Nursing school to become a RN
Unrelated to the unbelievably courageous and highly skilled job these men and women do for us ... In the intro , the gentleman spoke of the joys of living up there when they’ve got free time . Fishing for “20 pound halibut” , for example . Not 30 years ago it was common to catch 90 pounders .
My Dad was given some halibut from a friend's fishing trip. It was unbelievable. You haven't lived until you've eaten halibut from Alaska.
Hey someone who knew claude tell him it made it in CZcams! LOL
And the big feet,... ? Uh... he has a selection of kayak paddles out in the garage and when he uses up a pair of shoes, he just sells 'em with paddles as a pair of sport kayaks!
Poor Claude got SCREWED by the coast guard... look it up. www.mcclatchydc.com/news/article240644357.html
Kris Hansen that’s depressing, truly depressing
@@audikris that makes me sick! Literally nauseated. 😡
@@audikris That is so sad, disgusting as an OP said. It breaks my heart that Claude, who is one of my favorite people in this series was treated so badly. The completely disgraceful actions of the Cost Guard upper level officers, not even apologizing to Elizabeth Morrissey make me angry. I had high respect for the Coasties before this. I still respect the on the line personnel, the pilots, mechanics and rescue swimmers who continue to perform the noble service of the Coast Guard. I'm horrified and angry about what happened to the Morrissey.
God bless these guys. They are true rock stars.
Infinite thanks to all who serve.
To know you are there is priceless.
I am certain that when Mr. Culver finds his niche, he will be a superstar. He has the physicality, discipline, determination and heart.
I love this .I use to live in Fairbanks it brings back memories.
What a lovely young family. Glad you are enjoying these days together as the little are grown in the blink of an eye. You have built a beautiful family ❤
God bless the National Guard the USA you are my hero’s, keep up the good work.
Thank you for recesuing these people. Tom Alexander, Jacob Alexander & the rest of crew. Love you guys.
Modern day Heroes! Every one of them!
God bless our military!
To all the US Coast Guard members. Thank you for what you do. To Airman Culver. You have my respect. If you haven't already, you'll find your place. And be great at it. I just read Kris Hansen's post before completing this. Whoever Claude Morrissey's superior was, doesn't belong in any branch of our Service. He has no honor. Karma will come after him one day. Dang reading that just ruined my night. That just really chaps my @$$!!! I wish Claude his family all the best.
I'm so sad and appalled reading about Morissey and how his career ended. How unfair and devastating. 😢😢 The superior's name was Hall. Apparently similar things had happened in Kodiak before with other officers assaulting wives of enlisted men. Just horrible
Damn because of your comment I googled it and that is so fucked up.
I live in phoenix Arizona 118 degree weather that dangerous, but I love Alaska don't care how the weather is, would love to live there: )
I have been here in the California Desert for 50 years and temps are like yours up to 120 degrees. The tourists here scatter as soon as they can't go barefoot from the pool to the shade awning.
I'm Alaskan and just the thought of your heat in Arizona shudders me! I can't handle much over 80, so Southeast Alaska is paradise for me. I'd rather rust thsn melt!! Here's wishin you shade and long drinks!
@@abird1539 thank you so much:)
Huh, he said the water was about 40 degrees. When I was in the USCG in the northern Atlantic the water was about 51 degrees. On the West Coast it was about 68 degrees. We were told that life expectancy in the Atlantic was about 5 minutes (depending on your age and physical fitness) if you didn't have a survival suit on. That's because you''re coming down from 98.6 degrees pretty quick. Your body goes into shock. I can only imagine your life expectancy at 40 degrees. But you've got to be careful of people you're getting out of the water. They'll grab onto you anywhere they can lay a hand or actually start fighting you, punching. We were taught if we couldn't stop them and they were putting us both in danger to knock them out! Maybe that wasn't the "official" policy but we all talked about it.
15:20 so who wants to tell him?
damn i was about to comment this haha
Great minds think alike my dudes. Hahahaha!

Awesome as always guys...poor Michael I think maybe he's scared of letting his dad down.. Dad was a marine...he was tough, Michael, maybe not so tough but there's nothing wrong with that... wants to follow in his dads footsteps but differently...Michael sweetheart you are only a baby you have your whole life ahead of you, maybe something which doesn't involve swimming underwater..... what about a pilot, a paramedic, ambulance driver, join the army, navy, air force or whatever there must be so many other jobs I dont know about. I live in Western Australia. I do hope that 3 years down the track you have found your dream job, I wish you well...good luck to you!!!
Thank you for all you do!
Gosh I miss living there
“This better not end up on CZcams” 😂
I truly believe that both the swimmer and the mechanic should be full Paramedics.
Or someone on those helos should be a Paramedic. Such live saving personal could be a huge huge benefit.
They used to be years ago, I cant remember why they stopped using them.
A normal paramedic isn’t trained to do things in the air. They do have ppl who can but they only go if they know for sure they need them.
@@TheNightmareBeforeyouakaDrnigh in the uk we air ambulance paramedics who are trained for it
It's quite uncommon these days because of the amount of time it takes to be certified as a paramedic (In canada it's getting even longer, between 2-4 years, I figure the states will be standardized there too eventually) Making it prohibitively expensive to train, as well as requiring them to essentially lose a serviceman for that entire term while they train.
I got really seasick going deep sea fishing in super nice calm water in the Sea of Cortez on a bright blue cloudless mid-70s degree day in Cabo…… so my respect for all of these pilots, rescue swimmers and all coast guard members could not be higher!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for everything you do!!!!!!!!
That first mission 👏🏾💪🏾
"this better not end up on your tube"
SUPRISE!!!! ITS ON CZcams!!! lol
Im from Alaska, this makes me miss home so bad❤ my stepdad is from Kodiak, but ive never been. Im from Juneau. The most beautiful place EVER❤ i miss home so much, i just wish SE alaska had better medical care for non natives
I feel like I can kind of relate with Culver. It's not easy to admit when you're not mentally built or ready for something you had your heart set on. I deal with a lot of guilt and shame, but I wasn't cut out for the job. In the end it's about the good of the team and the people you're trying to save. If you know you're not cut out for something, you may be saving lives and the team by recognizing your strengths and weaknesses and being strong enough to admit it's not for you.... Culver did good. He tried his best and learned something about himself in the process. It doesn't need to be a mark of shame, instead he can be proud of himself that he had the strength and presence of mind to walk away for the sake of others. Well done.
Hello. Thank you for your service CG. Be safe out there people. Love to all
These’d young men are so extremely special. They were raised right by their parents and are decent law abiding family men.
I have found myself lately so depressed by the constant news of these horrible hoodlums who are causing nothing but madam, murder, drugs and shootings. They were not raised at all!
Then you watch this show about these brave and talented men/women in the Coast Guard, and you think maybe there is hope for our country after all. Their parent’s families and friends may be exceedingly proud of them. I certainly am!
Thank you for your service all over our country to fishermen and recreational boats. You all are amazing. I’m so glad they take only the best of the best ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Happy Thanksgiving to each and every one of you, wherever you’re stationed. 🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃
Thank you Coast Guard for an outstanding job.
The rescue swimmers are like when in doubt have some oxygen
USA cost guard really really awesome I mean I’m watching these kind of episodes and there is such a positive vibe another service that they do I am really impressed
Wow, great job! Nice to see gratitude from the rescued crew too! Instead of a drunk, who doesn’t bother to acknowledge these very brave young men!
Alaska is beautiful, but it’s huge and it’s dangerous!
Julia Haynie agreed cutie
Hey fellow Haynie 🤘🥳

Please make more of this show it is great.❤
Culver. You made the right direction. No disrespect. You swam your guts out. You can do this if my daughter can. Keep charging Coast Guard.
Another outstanding video
That guy washing out, man that musta been tough ..
micheal in 5-10 years will make an absoulete beast of a coast gaurd
These are such cool videos, thanks
That young/mid teen range must be some of the most difficult for rescues. They can be almost or as large as adults, but are still children and can have that raw panic. They're more likely to be experiencing that level of fear or danger for the first time.
Outstanding, I used to love doing this!

I hope those dudes are paid well because that’s some serious work they do.
“This better not wind up on CZcams.”
Um…Yeah about that…
15:22 "I'm a good looking man, America. This better not wind up on CZcams." >_>
I served in the early 90s… probably went to boot camp around the same time the Chief did!!lol. I would love to know the rate the young man went who DOR in AST training. Whatever rate it is he is a good man and i would serve next to him under most any condition. Semper Paratus
82nd Airborne @503...That's whats up. Strike Hold Brother.
Alaska is also the most highest state were people vanished without a trace
34:00 interview with rope guy, his name is Alex Magnum. He grew up in Vacaville, CA. We both went to school together, and the fucker still owes me $20.
Class of '01
A good instructor could have gotten that kid through the training. Some students don't take well to dimeaning stress inducing teaching style. I'm a flight instructor. That style will get people killed. Teach people to understand their reactions so they can solve any situation. Hooraa
Heroes.
Being in Alaska is God’s country!
Aye shoutout New England it gets rough out here too 😂😂😂😂😂
Love looking at these videos even if they two years old lol.
I, for one, was not aware that the coast guard did all this!
You need to get the word out, better!
"Army Wives" did an excellent thing of showing life in the military.
Holly wood has shown all kinds of Police and Fire department shows.
Even the hospital has shows telling about what it is like.
So, why don't the coast guard do the same.
They did. You’re watching it I think lol 🤷🏻♀️🤣
14:48 WHAT?!?!?! No way!
My hometown is less than 20 minutes from Roxbury...that's the closest Wal-Mart, anyway!
God's country, indeed 😁
Proud to see at least one person from my area can survive Alaska 😅
Most important piece of equipment on the aircraft...box lunch.
Lmao the big shirtless dude said this better not end up on CZcams lol
Circa 15:24 : "I'm a good-lookin' man, America! This better not wind up on CZcams! ..." Yeah ... Well ... Ahem! ... About that ... ;-D ;-D ;-D (Thanks for your service, Ladies and Gentlemen! ;-D)
The Ocean : WELCOME TO MY HOUSEE
Nothing like fishing and catching something that makes your line start screaming!
I know people who have passed away from boating accidents in Alaska, the coast Guard really has to regularly risk their lives. Alaska is incredibly beautiful, but boy she is MIGHTY and if you dont respect nature at all times, you very well may lose your life.
Al Roker was the producer? How is the weather in Alaska's neck of the woods? :)
26:47 chief is out of shape and definitely couldn’t do the very things he’s asking of the newbies. Lol.
The members of the coast guard are truly angels, but seems like they all get so chunky.
It's easy to forget how dangerous a fourteen year old boy can be. Such a creature may indeed have had most of his growth spurt and thereby be the size of a man. He is in that trasition between being a boy and a man and has some of the abilities of both. In this case, the boy overwhelmed the man and he was not having that basket hoist. Fortunately, there was a man tried and true there to dissuade him from being stubborn and get him in the basket and rescued. I find myself wondering what limits that swimmer has set on him when rescuing.
“This better not windup on CZcams 😂🤦🏻♂️🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼
If your hoist cable gets caught on the vessel say a tower or something can you release the cable to free chopper and if so is there a backup
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🌏✝️ Isaiah 61:1 Thank you family
So, when Chief Fowler goes on his flight, he says that he's a paramedic. I'm wondering how Coast Guard Rescue Swimmers become paramedics?
Famous Last Words? "This better not end up on CZcams!"
This may be a silly question, but when they are hoisting from a fishing vessel, why wouldn’t the fishing vessel stop? They keep going and the helicopter has to keep pace. Is it because it’s smoother on board than bobbing on the waves?
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🌏✝️🇺🇸 Isaiah 61:1 Thank you family
NORDIC MISTRESS ... Perfect. Whose the biittcchh noww LOL They jinx'd themselves with that name. The Ocean was like ... nah.
15:40 it did in fact end up on CZcams.
“Hope this doesn’t end up on CZcams.”
Well, it did. :)

I was there in Kodiak, left in 1992, that hangar in this video looks, pretty much same as then. They were just getting their '60s when transferred (durn USCG Wouldn't let me stay). That gate shack as the CO drove onto base looked different. Couldn't tell about other changes from when I was last there.

Why no nausea med? I don’t understand. Got IV use it.
18:02 one one one one one lol go to the end of the line and come back when you can do it correct push up
Glad I'm not the only one that saw that. The other one has hitting the first with his upper abs, not his chest.

There are people in this world who either give or take. The givers walk into a room and they, believe it or not, give. They make that room brighter by offering it any type of succor that it requires. They help people when they need it. They are an ear that listens. A voice that gives advice. Or they are just simply able to share the weight of burden. They offer compassion, sympathy, a rosey smile that lifts you up. They inspire. The takers are the opposite. They are vampires who bring with them shadow. They suck from people. Drain energy from them. They seek sympathy, but are incapable of giving it. They wish to blame all their self-created ills on anyone they can pin them on, any excuse, any reason why they’re not where they supposedly deserve to be. They bring the people around them down. Their wives, their children, their work colleagues, their communities. All they want is to take and never give.
This comment seems rather targeted at men given those last sentences....
Yea man, you NEVER run.
