To the programme makers:
(1) Thank you for realising that the series is so much stronger with zero narration. It's all strung together by the first-hand accounts of the stakeholders, which is varied and engaging.
(2) Thank you for including the occasional unhappy ending, as a reminder of reality. Of course, the Coasties' job is very far from _all sweetness and light._
"You have pretty toe nails mam" in that moment that's alleviating stress, and also very caring.
There is a legend of a man who lives beneath the sea. He is a fisher of men, the last hope of all those who have been left behind. Many survivors claim to have felt his gripping hands beneath them; pushing them up to the surface; whispering strength until help could arrive. But this, of course, is only a legend.
Is he black?
@@michaela7100 No its Kevin Costner! haha. From the movie "The Guardian" definitely worth a watch.
More than legend 🙌 ❤️
Their professionalism and ability to work/communicate with each other as a team is applauding.
Fantastic. They really care about helping others. Great job.
Thank you coasties, from Barrow AK. Respect.
Loved this episode, loved at the end how his little girl shot with both eyes open, and hit her target. Impressive. Always appreciate the snippets of their personal lives. Strong supportive families and communities make or break life in the military or coast guard.
What is the USCGC Alex Haley equivalent to to the Navy?
My last unit in the Army before retirement, the pilots did not find the fridget their favorite ship to land on .
Hello. The 4 men in the helo know what is safe & not. It seemed they were in a horrible position. It's good they handed it off to their ground CG. Be safe out there people. Love to all
How cool to be the camera/video person on the ship to document this.
In florida they go out looking for survivors....in alaska they go looking for bodys.....place is beautiful but brutal
Ex US Navy here, very interesting. Navy personal couldn’t do that job, respect to the USCG. Bad luck with the knee injury, but stuff happens at sea. We had a guy accidentally cut his hand off in the galley, luckily we had corpsmen on board.
Agree 👍. Bering sea is a big difference than Florida
to every single one of u God bless and thank you for what u do and how you do it
@@adriancitoarroyave7840I think the us navy does have helicopter rescue teams but not to the extent of the coasties
I'm glad to see more info on the USCG boat and ship crews. No disrespect to CG Aviation, but this the boat guys that do most of the work and it's nice to see them get some shine.
I hope that Ms. Redstone returned to duty and didn't get chaptered out.
I MISS watching the Coast Guard shows that you would put on here. Alaska was my fav!!! Wish so bad the show was still going on!! Florida was good too!!! Any new episodes at all that you know of!?
You guys are the very best!!!!!! God bless each and every one of you! God bless the good Sam’s!!!!!
12:38 Go Steeler’s! Thank God for all of the wonderful people rushing to help! God bless first responders! ❤️
13:25 ❤ Thankyou 🇬🇧
Pretty impressed with the medical facilities on that cutter.
All branches of our military are FULL of amazing, professional,well trained people with a deep dedication to the mission. MJS E-5 USAF 72-76..
God bless the coastguard!👍
USCG is the BEST of the BEST
Second to none.
I know how it is to be injured on the water. I work on a freighter and ended up breaking my back after a 10-12 foot fall and had to have USCG come get me
you folks are incredible!
I'm dealing with complicated knee issues. It started when I was 14 years old after a very rare hip bone disease when I was 2 years old. That ACL is horrid. The risk of re-occurrence is high. I really relate to this female injured.
She would have been a lot more useful in the galley. It looks like she spends some time there as it is. LOL The resources to get her ashore due to her klutziness: probably $25k+
@@txman201 I think we've seen in this series just how easy it is to have an accident or become ill at sea.
@@txman201 Let's be real, that could easily happen to anyone. And I don't think a commissioned officer belongs in the galley.
yikes, man...@@txman201
a torn ACL must hurt like a SOB, but my first thought would also be "FML i haven't shaved my legs in weeks! do we really need to do this? 🙈", no matter how silly that is in the big scheme of things, & given how gnarly some of the men's unpedicured feet must surely be. hope the Ensign has recovered well & she doesn't sweat the small stuff anymore!
Ouch torn ACL thats painful
You guys boarded the Verdal, I used to work on the boat 😂
God bless you all awesome🙏🙏🙏
Way to go!
ou folks are incredible!
Respect to you and your men commander!!
Absolutely awesome that his kids are being taught about gun safety and how to use them. If only everyone learned and shot guns there would be no need to be afraid of them like so many people are.
100%
Whenever I have kids, I plan to teach them gun safety once they are old enough. If decide they don’t like guns after that, then that’s they’re choice.
Guns don’t kill people. People kill people.
good idea lets give all the kids some guns maybe they will kill all there bullies whenever they feel like it we need more school schootings right
@@nodehead9475 found the gun control nut. You do realize that the people who commit crimes don’t think rationally correct? You do realize that teaching the children how to safely handle a firearm could save them right? I mean look at the amount of criminals who throw their guns in the bushes or in the rivers etc. what happens when a child who hasn’t had the experience of recognizing how dangerous they are stumbles upon a discarded weapon? “Look sissy I found a toy *bang*”
Teach your kids gun safety and proper handling end of story.
Nobodies gonna talk about the ELEPHANT in the room...and great Gun day with dad. that will make those kids better people.,
Those guys are so sweet! Especially the one that told her at least you have pretty toenails ma’am💗😊💗😊💗😊💗
These kids are great!
love see ing those old m81 pasgt frag vests still in use
Cost Guard Alaska you do a awesome job at saying lives 🎉🎉😅😅😅
Wow😌
I felt so sad that the lady passed away🥺.
Ex US Navy here, very interesting. Navy personal couldn’t do that job, respect to the USCG. Bad luck with the knee injury, but stuff happens at sea. We had a guy accidentally cut his hand off in the galley, luckily we had corpsmen on board.
I once met a man who'd had his hand cut off and he actually carried the hand around with him on a necklace and he would show it to people and ask them to sign it. he asked me to sign it but i just wrote 'cunt' in block capitals
@@joecoulson2904 yea oookk
This is pretty typical of the USCG in SE Alaska, assets having to go out and rescue their own.... I have been involved in a couple of these rescues, new uscg enlisted move to Alaska on assignment and think they are invincible, they go out with little area familiarisation and get in trouble, happens all the time. .
Who else realized the patient was gonna die at the end as soon as the music took that sad turn?
USCG Cutter would occasionally stop at Adak, AK. As a volunteer librarian I was able to locate a book written about the history of the USCG. Can't recall the name now. 😊
I gotta say, I think hurting my knee or leg at sea would be one of the harder injuries to deal with. Can't imagine trying to maintain balance with crutches or on one leg in heavy seas....
Imagine you're illegally fishing, you see a coast guard helicopter start to circle you so you scrabble to get rid of the evidence, the boat comes to board you as you're all proper and acting nice. Then one of the boarders breaks their leg and they retreat without even boarding. Wonder how pissed that captain was dumping all the spoils over.
1:47 Hey, that's the Carpe Diem, the same boat the crew pulled that Pastor who was fishing with his son off of.
Officer: check their fish holds, do an in inspection of...
Enlisted: the full check? (The same shit they always do)
Officer: ...uh yes that...
Standard 😆
Great Job Exciting.
Hahahahaha
When Iwaslooking at enlistment in '72 I wanted thebest technical/electronics training I could get. USAF, USCGand USN had GREAT school. I too love the water but then I heard about "hot bunking" in a coffin and decided on the USAF lol...I guess I am not good with sharing or claustrophobia! But yearslater I decided to liveaboard on a 37 sail boat I restored. Tighter quarters than USAF but I dont mind HotBunking when there is room for the wife ;) Still, who ever is on top has towatch the overhead ;)
My sister tore her ACL. It wasn't fun.
I ate a muffin for dinner
broke my heart the last section, the little boy was not happy to see his Dad at all :(
it's just a phase! He's too cool for cameras
Glad the military went with the Sig Sauer it looks way better than the Beretta and was already carried by pilots anyways
Ive never seen someone use sights on a 50 before. lol. Just walk the rounds in.
You guys are great ! Thanks for all you do!!
Question have y'all ever bagged any sea life shooting into the sea? Or do y'all rus everything off???🤔✌💗😊❣
I feel for Ms. Redstone, ACL is no joke. I do find it odd that the boat didn’t use/offer crutches for her. Is it a slippery surface issue?
I thought they had loads of Staffers to switch out... Are they sending Rescuers out that have been on duty all day about to go to bed...??
2 weeks away! 🤣. Try 6 -7 months! GO NAVY
Half an episode for a well below average injury?? "Like she was jumping"
👍👍
Like
41:26 AMEN!
OK. When they are (did he say 250 nautical miles?) off shore with nothing around them - and he says "we are literally in the middle of no where" - I change my definition of "in the middle of no where" and figure that any stretch of land from now on needs a new call sign!
Alternatively, draw a circle that’s 300 miles away from where you live. 250 nautical miles is equivalent to 300 miles. You’ll find out that it’ll take you a good hour in a jet to fly that distance. On board their ship they don’t have a jet. They have a helicopter which has less range and a lower speed than a commercial jet
Thank you. That helps put it in perspective.
Didn't look windy at all
You'd be absolutely stupid to try & mese with the coast guard,,, they themselves aren't pushovers but they have several big brothers that would respond immediately with overwhelming amounts of force!! If need be, that is. You should usually be happy that they're their to help you,,,, if need be that is.😉🇺🇸💙❤ merika.
Do the coast guards in alaska hate the 1s in south florida? I just fell like florida has a way better deal lol
No Alaska has many more operations. Cool
Extremists. Lived on Kodiak, lived in Daytona Beach. Alaska IS wild
This is a great series but it has one major flaw; you have to listen to everything TWICE. You finish one section and when it comes back on it basically repeats the last 3 minutes of the last section. Drives me crazy. Oh well, gotta take the gristle with the meat.
Ho wmany miles does a cutter log in 90 days?
why does mountain rescue have a boat?
When they’re shooting into the ocean like that what happens if they hit fish whales etc? Do they make sure there’s no whales in the area?
Shooting into water isn't anything at all like what they show in the movies. Water is incompressible, and at the speeds bullets travel it is very much like hitting a brick wall. They disintegrate nearly instantly.
I know some of the jackasses who captain the boats on Deadliest Catch think that being boarded by the USCG is a waste of time and loss of money and while that may be true safety supersedes making money any day a week! A 1/2 hour inspection could save those fishing vessels and their crews lives!!!
Shouldn't categorize every captain in the Bering sea the same. That was on one episode & the CG was laughing with captain Wild Bill at the end of it saying they were well aware of the tactics / shenanigans some old crabbers used in the 90's & left on good terms & also told the CG guy's thank you they appreciate everything the CG does.The fishing fleet & all Captain's especially US flagged one's but limited to just them have a awesome & very close relationship with the CG that is unbreakable the Alaskan sector they are integrated in the smaller community's its a lot like Hawaii CG.
Wish you guys could use Thermal imagers they work way better than your “Greens”.
Strange that the C.G Alaska intro screen has an S-76 with a rescue swimmer deploying. I doubt they fly 76's there. MH-60's
I would serve on the coast guard ship for free as the cook for those few weeks & also film a documentary in the free time if I was aloud for Sydney morning herald & channel nine
I’m just curious and maybe someone knows the answer. Why would anyone give a thumbs down on this show?
I’m not judging by any means. I’m just curious.
Thank you Coast Guard.
They're called "trolls", troublemakers
we women allways want to say we have the same strenght as men but we do nt
Why would any parent take their kids out there under these kind of conditions, in the first place?
Weather gets bad fast
need to get it check out? really
Land and then go board?? Wouldn’t it be better to keep the heli circling while boarding under way??
weak sauce...if you cant board a boat with a 4 foot drop...stay home
That hoist at 27:30 is epic!! Picture perfect footage should be in the recruitment videos!! Redstone is a pretty sweet last name I like it! I hope she got healed up & back to work with the CG & doing what she loves! Also she is a cutie😉
Do your coast guard get payed doing there job?over we have lifeboat guys who go out in all weather's 24 hours a day and they don't get payed.
My bad: looks like they fly Eurocopter MH-65 Dolphin, similar profile
It's an MH60 Jayhawk usually.
How can rescue people get themselves in trouble?
Cmon way to any adds. I liked your channel and watched it a lot but the adds are getting so bad
What was a Coast Guard guy doing taking his small children out on the water in the dead of Winter! Duh!!!! Not the sharpest knife in the drawer!
Love Coast Guard personnel, but did that girl twist her knee? Sure hope she gets airlifted and takes care of that injury.
As a helicopter pilot, it's important to maintain control ability of your aircraft, what happened to them was caused because they focused on the scene and not on the winds. The winds is your lifeline in helicopters and they experienced LTE or loss of tail rotor effectiveness because of the wind direction on their tail. It's easily avoidable as long as you are aware of your aerodynamics. Never let the mission distract you from controlling your aircraft...
The sound vibrations alone of responding vehicles could cause an earth quake, mountain avalanches, cracking of ice which will suck you into those currents. Ocean currents will slam you around and throw you into the air, nature is all-powerful and it is the one thing that we will never conquer. Looks like God is being attacked from all sides of His creations which he made out of love. Hikers get lost and do die. lack of food will cause delirious behavior, as will lack of water.
an earthquake :D
I don't think that'll cause earthquakes lol. That's mainly the plates
Sound waves *don't* cause avalanches. Rotor wash could potentially trigger something given the terrain and conditions, but that's due to the force of the air being moved by the rotor blades to generate lift.
knee injury boarding a fishing vessel...figures its a girl. lol.
It could’ve happened to Anyone.
Of course she hurt her knee. No surprise.
Being a Coast Guardsman, you'd think that dude had the sense to check the weather before he went out on his boat.
Weather can change fast, and 40% storm can still happen
@@natewasylik1576 I understand that. I also would have set course back to port as soon as I noticed any weather change.
Perhaps the weather changed quickly. Bet you have seen it happen. I have, also gone by weather reports that are not accurate.
I see it all the time
@@deborahgrantham7387 I spent 7 years in the Coast Guard, 2 years on small boats and 5 years in aviation. I remember a case where five 20 somethings had gone out on a boat. A big storm was coming. It was on the news, yet these guys still went out. They had no communications, no blankets or jackets, no food though plenty of water was on its way. It was also getting cold. These guys ran out of gas and the wind blew them into the marsh out of sight from the lake. We passed them by unable to see them or hear them due to the sound our our engines. Fortunately for them a Coast Guard Auxiliary Plane spotted them and sent us in the right direction to find them. These guys were cold and dirty. One of them asked if we would have come back after passing them. The coxswain said "Nope, if it wasn't for that plane we'd have never found you." The look on dude's face was revealing. As a youngster, I grew up in Southern California. I went to the beach regularly. I've been held down against the sand by waves and caught in rip currents. Still, I didn't know how dangerous the water could be until I joined the Coast Guard. That airman took his family into harms way. He should have known better. He should have been paying attention to the weather. He should have left for home immediately. I don't care how quickly the weather comes. You have a responsibility to get out of there now when it comes.
crazy that kids are playing and shooting guns like this. And then you americans ask yourselfs why there is shooting at the schools
We don’t shoot people here. That’s for the liberal cities
That right there is why women ought to stay at home and not in the service out on missions. Support yes but not in combat or in the field in harm's way, PERIOD~!~.
The violent creditor successively apologise because fertilizer technically harass near a maddening employer. ashamed, successful trout
The medical professional on the ship did a piss poor evaluation. OR what I we saw of it was lacking. I would've checked the medial & lateral collateral and drawer test to see if the pcl & acl ligaments were taught, along of the patella stability. If she hyper extended her knee. Its quite possible its an Anterior or Posterior Crusiate Ligament (ACL) injury. The patient will need to follow the RICE (rest, ice, compression, & elevation) program. Until she can see medical intervention. I wouldn't call this injury urgent, uncomfortable yes but stabile condition. Well she an ACL tear after all.
Her job isn’t to diagnose and treat, its to Triage and sustain life until they can pass the patient to a higher level of care (AKA: somebody who knows what the hell there doing) !!!!! LOL
AWOL FPV
I agree👍🏼 some people have to flap their mouth’s.
@@hollywarehouse7938 @AWOL FPV I know what her job is as I'm a medical professional myself. These are simple quick tests. Ones the triage person or personnel should know. Esp being the acute care personnel on board. I'm stating a valid point from EXPERTISE & 30 yrs EXPERIENCE. The flapping mouth is yours! 🤣😂
You clearly have no idea what her scope of practice is.
Get a load of Doctor Zhivago ova here
The tangible men nationally hop because c-clamp technically travel except a observant title. beneficial, dirty rectangle
That is insane!!! Teaching a four year old to shoot!!! I am as anti gun as can be. Guns kill! Brutally hard on kids having a father, or parent, who leaves for three months at a time. That leaves life long impact. My father left for 6 weeks when I was two and a half. Psychologists say my mental health problems as an adult come from that early betrayal of my trust.
Lol
❄️
of course it's the woman that fails to perform the combat role and ruins the mission 🙄
All great stuff until the "Guns". Amongst other things, never understand the "normalising" of them, especially with children so young, and calling it "fun" stuff to do???Probably doesn't help that I am from the UK. But don't let that take away the fact I think you do really great work?
I'm from New Zealand and dont understand it either about gun culture.
@@maxineb9598we hunt and need them for bear protection. Plus teaching kids the safe way to use it does nothing but good
JESUS CHRIST LOVES YOU ALL AND HE DIED FOR YOUR SINS AND HE ROSE AGAIN AND HES COMING BACK ONE DAY REPENT OF YOUR SINS AND TURN TO CHRIST
Send a girl to do a dangerous mans job... rescuing fish. Ha!
I'm glad to see more info on the USCG boat and ship crews. No disrespect to CG Aviation, but this the boat guys that do most of the work and it's nice to see them get some shine.
I hope that Ms. Redstone returned to duty and didn't get chaptered out.
