Kudos to the pilot who hovered over the raft. They didn't take the beacon with them so they would never have been found. But that pilot persisted and once they saw the raft, they could direct rescue. Good judgement on the pilot, he deserved an award as well
These men have a tough job, good lord. To do that every day takes some serious mental toughness.
im glad this didnt end in the death of everyone, good job to the pilots and passengers for acting well and executing their actions to a good degree
Umm forgot to relay their location. And forgot the Eperb
This story is extremely well presented down to the last exquisite detail. It clearly demonstrates the ultimate in professional skill and training that resulted in no lives lost. The discovery of a critical design flaw completely changed the outcome of the investigation. Watching this for the first time made me recall the ditching of an airliner on the Hudson river following a bird strike that crippled the plane. Captain Sullenberger performed skillfully and everyone walked away from what would come to be called, "The Miracle on the Hudson." The account of this ditching is no less spectacular, rather more so because weather was not a factor on the Hudson ditching. In the North Sea the weather caused the ditching and was about as bad as it gets.
He is one of my best narrator jonathan Aris I just like how he narrates this episodes of Air crash investigations
As a helicopter historian, find this kind of documentary of great interest.
Im so glad the o& g industry always learn from disaster it faced. I am currently also having to redo this helicopter underwater escape training every four years as my travelling to work location requires using a chopper. We now also have training on how to climb up the net thing, the liferaft now improved to include ration and the beacon is on the raft itself, we practiced how to upturn an overturn liferaft alone, we have rules of what to do and what not to do in a liferaft, sit down and shut up and eat the seasick pill. All these are improvement from known disaster and included in our training to increase whateveer chance we have to survive a chopper crash. The video is so accurate i could literally imagine it happening on a chopper i board, and all those training being put in use in order to
survive. From what i heard from colleagues involved in manoverboard and chopper crash, they say it was exactly like training, everything learned is put to used. That was the difference between who survived and who didnt in some of the disaster we have had, which is unbelievably morose.
That was luck more than judgment this man is a legend
Kudos to whoever gave speaking parts to the guy who sounds like a Leprachaun.
quit blowing smoke up me kiltie laddie
Where's me black gold lol
This was so crazy! Kudos to the pilots for landing the helicopter in water!!
People make fun but I applaude the health and safety of the British. I now live in the US after living for 15 in the UK and I can definitely say you feel safer there in terms of buying your food, traveling, school, work. Thanks Brits!
Yes, the carbon does get hot, look at the older movie studio 'hot lights', called carbon-arc, as it quite litterally was two rods and the light housing brings them close together, like a stick welder, and this 'arc' is the light source, albiet diffused through a lens. (so hot\bright in fact that the door has a welding shield uv coating on it, to protect opperators).
They may take our tail rooter, but they will never take OUR FREEEEDOM!!! 🏴
Alba gu Brath!
Great overall safety measures by the British, calmness and expertise of the Captains
This one video has me subscribed. AWESOME WORK!!!!
Very well filmed documentary and a miraculous survival story.Doubting the pilots at first until lightning proven as the cause was wrong however they got their reward and so well deserved.The card from the little girl to the Captain for saving her dad was poignant.
Well created to understands to most deep level. Thanks for the efforts made to make the copy of the life threatening event,
My favorite Nat geo Air crash investigations narrator Jonathan Aris
They didn't have a gps transpondent?
Piper Alpha. The gas did not explode. The condensate did..
That's so cool, the card at the end❤️
Beyond scary .
At 10:06 So if the farther the helicopter flies the lower it drops away from the radar, was it the first time it did that, why didn’t they fix that gap in advance?
My thought 🤔 to
Good job all were being able to be rescued. Sadly enough in many other Puma accidents, they were not.
What 😮 no way smh !!! Now I don’t wanna fly for a whileeeeee
..starts @ about 10:30-ish…
We're here miracle
Antigua 🇦🇬 🇦🇬 watching 👀 2023 happy Happy new year 🎉 ✨️ be safe st. .. safe flight ✈️
Crazy I thought all these people were dead for sure.
Where are all these jagged helicopter parts coming from? Why does a door all of a sudden become a knife?
Its still being ripped off the helicopter. Its bound to be sharp
@@rumblefish9 the door wasn't "ripped off", it was released.
The helicopter didn't crash, it landed gently on balloons. The only damage and jagged parts were the tail.
@@kewlztertc5386 The doors were designed to sink gently after release,, but this one didn't. Design flaw. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
@@magpiefrogfrom2556 not relevant.
The door doesn't turn into a jagged razor blade once you release it.
Regardless if it floats or sinks, it's a door, there's nothing SHARP on a door. Not only is it not sharp, it has rubber around it to make a seal.
This door bad behavior should be severely punished.
Can’t helicopters 🚁 float?
Oilfields shared between Norway and England ? The arrogance and ignorance of the English is astounding !
I'm just curious, is this job restricted to men only? Because all the adjectives imply men only. I'm thinking maybe you have to be extra burly but then again I know a lot of women that are extra burly as well!!
3-5% of oil rig workers are women.
There is no law restricting women from this profession. It's just that women almost never apply.
Is nanny restricted to women only?
@@aerohk let's hope not
They get everything they deserve
How so
Tail rotor issues and remedies aside, I'm left wondering if the practice of putting 18 people in a chopper that has a life raft thats only made for 14 people still happens.
I mean, ya can't have 6 people in a car with 5 seats and belts can ya.
My thought exactly. Amazing how many stories like this always end up under equipped or things are just short of what would have saved everyone. Glad they survived tho. 2 bullets dodged, them boys must have been mystified the next day.
It had 2 rafts of 14 person each, but one was inaccessible during the evacuation because it was pushed up by waves and wind up into the helicopter and couldn’t be dislodged
You would think the crane operator would know what he’s doing… smh.. yanked the heli out of the water when it was FULL of water! You have to lift things that are flooded SLOWLY.. smh
Okay pro Crane Operator.
