RIP to Roger Stone. A hero. No arguing that either. The man a straight up legend.
Blessed be Roger. Your sacrifice saved their lives. May the afterlife be rewarding for you.
Afterlife? Hahahahahahaaa

@@brx926 no, I'll continue to point out stupid human beliefs.
What a brave man Roger was helping those boys out of there knowing he probably couldn't do it by himself. That's a real man.
Yes!
Yeah Roger was a true man. A selfless hero. He forced them 2 boys out knowing well enough he wouldn’t be able to follow. That man shot straight to heaven without passing GO.
I wonder if he had waited just before the water reached the sailing if he would have been able to escape. The water flow would have stopped, because the boat was full.
Yes, and it appears he was the only 'man' there.
they could of helped him
Does anyone else click on your phone screen to see if its near the end of the episode to know if they’re finally about to be rescued? The suspense!
More than you know😅😅😅.
Everytime!
Omg yasssss lol
I knew they were rescued the moment I see them in the interview 😐
Yes!
Helping those young students knowing your not going to make it out is more than a hero. Rest that mans soul.
The fact that all of the 5 men of the 6 crew who were rescued and made it through the midst of their turmoil situation, caused me to realize how much in life I should be thankful for and to not take for granted.
So just watching this made you realize you should be thankful ?!? Lol come on
Love this :)
amen bro i know what you mean. sometimes it takes witnessing someone else in danger to make you appreciate your own. Much Love and God bless. Christ is king
@@hannagibson9970 you're a great soul
Roger forced them 2 boys out knowing well enough he wouldn’t be able to follow. That man shot straight to heaven without passing GO.
Amen to that, the Lord welcomed a true hero.
Good deeds don't get you into heaven.
i doubt heavily that they will go un noticed - why would you castrate yourself with such a comment?@@RuminatingWizard
What is very upsetting to me is that those 2 boys needed Rogers help to get out alive & neither one of them went back in to pull him through the hole knowing that he needed their help just like they needed his!😢I could not live with myself knowing that he saved my life but I did nothing to save his!😢Smh. Very unfortunate R.I.P. Roger a true hero!❤😇
Im so grateful for my dead end boring life. Grateful for my small headache, grateful for my running water, my windows, my muddy shoes. Every little thing i love. I grateful that im left alone and live in a comfortable place
Roger was a true general. May God bless his soul
Rodger the true definition of a hero, God Bless you sir.
The rule of I shouldn’t be Alive is that the first chance at rescue never works
Yeah, now I know that if I am ever in a survival situation, don't bother getting excited about the first chance of rescue.
I watch tons of CZcams channels. This is my favorite series
Yes…I like it too, but some of the actions people take are so FOOLISH. They need to make a spoof of this show
Check out surviorman! He uploaded all his content
ROGER WAS A HERO♥️🌹
That roger guy was a great crewman who did that right thing, knowing that it meant his own demise
I had hoped that when the boat finally filled with water Roger would be easily able to get out because there was no longer a current sucking in water and preventing him from exiting. He would have to take a last deep breath. I would have dived down to assist him up too.
Once it's filled with water, it sinks like a stone. He probably didn't have enough time
The captain was the first to unhook himself when he should been climbing back on for survival gear.
So sad Roger lost his life. He was a hero! The others survival is a miracle. God had his hand on them.
You think god had anything to do with their survival? Pretty silly that god would save these 5 people, but allow 15,000 people to starve to death on a daily basis. Seems like god has his priorities all fucked up honestly.
This is one situation I NEVER want to be in.
Wow that last man helped the others out. Gave his life for them to survive. Wow wow wow! What an amazing soul.
I've glanced at the comments, and not seen anyone have the same takes as me, on actions after the capsizing. Even before the second guy was convinced to go through the hatch, I was thinking that he needed to be sure to help pull the last guy through, once he was free of the water pressure through the hatch. But, he didn't, which was horrific, I thought as I was watching it. And then when they didn't see Roger appear (or hear him shouting upon escaping), how could they not dive back in to assist him? How could they think he'd escaped, when they couldn't on their own get through the hatch, and they don't hear him shouting? Especially, how could the two fellows who he'd 'rescued' not be compelled to at least attempt an assist. Dark and scary yes, but after a moment of gathering oneself, I'd have been beside myself with guilt doing nothing.
We find out later, Steve had a small light. Yet, he would rather leave them to die in the cap sized vessel, than taking the relatively minor risk to assist them.
Then, according to their own retelling, they showed no feeling about what was in fact the most likely outcome for Roger, until much later. Shocked. I've been in a white water river situation, where I'd got to shore after a capsize, but my boat mate was in terror, not able to pull himself up an almost vertical canyon wall. So, I got to him, ended up sliding in as I was too light to pull him out, but was able to calm him down, and show him how to push himself away to move further down stream.
Then, Steve's stewardship continued to lack. They should have indeed back stroked (rather than swim) toward the oil platform that night, easier task than swimming, which would have helped keep their bodies warm. Instead he attempts after they are more tired, and have been in the scorching sun for hours, and swimming instead of back stroking.
When they realized they werre burning in the sun, they were wearing shorts, that were basically useless; they could have taken their shorts and used them as hats.
Other than having them tie themselve together, the only rational thinking that occurred was the Coast Guard checking current movements to figure out where they could have drifted. Had that smart thinking not occurred, one or more of the five may well have not made it.
Great comment! I agree. They at least could have tried to help Roger. RIP brave and selfless man
There is one thing they mentioned that made me think it may not have been possible to help Roger out. The reason they said they were stuck in there was because of the pressure of the water rushing into the room. Roger was able to help them out by physically pushing them through the portal. The only way to help Roger out would be to get back towards the portal and grab him and pull him through. But if you had to be pushed out of that room to begin with, you would not pull him out. The water would push you right back in. Also, keep in mind you still have to find your way out of the ship in the dark and reach the surface on one breath of air. It's noble to try to think of helping Roger out but I don't think there was anything they could have really done for him. RIP to a selfless hero who did what he could to save others in a horrible situation.
They even dont try..
Yeah he seems very full of himself. And it was barely mentioned the bottom of the boat was cracked prior to this trip. Does that mean he knew about it and had it fixed? Had he even tested it before this race? It seems like it was in spite of him, not because of him, the boys lived through this. And he's got a big head now.
An insightful comment; I thought of similar points and was also surprised how carefree the younger ones appeared to be. Not to detract from their achievements in their incredible survival but it seemed like Roger was very much an afterthought.. Of course, television programmes tend to manipulate recordings, people exaggerate, etc, so we don’t really know how they felt about it or what really happened. Leaves us thinking, eh?
Please come out with a new season!! I miss this show so much! I watched every episode when it came out years ago.
Seriously. I would love a revival series. This show seemed like it was really popular and has only grown more popular on CZcams. I bet it would be popular if Netflix, Amazon or Hulu made another series
Agreed!! Maybe we should start a petition for a reboot lol. 😆
I love this show.. I watch them over and over.
One of the best documentary shows ever
People are so amazing in these situations ....! imagine not having those calm collected people around you in a situations like this
Most people are wreckless and stupid making these situations deadly. Those are the stories without happy endings. Most of them . This story had rare good men, especially Roger
The better trained people are, the more calm and rational they are for sure!!! The students were lucky to have two awesome teachers. One of which gave his life in a high stress situation and got the young boys out.
Skipper Steve isnt much of a skipper if he went to sea with a bunch of kids in a damaged boat. Fail
yeah.......... "busted keel? it will be fine...lets go out to deep sea "
Yep. That negligence caused one man to die.
Without a depth charge release life raft. Wild
Meanwhile on the slopes of Everest, entitled middle class bores step over dying people to reach their pathetic summit. Roger displays everything that is great about humanity; our sense of adventure but also our inherent sense to help.
Skipper Steve is the worst skipper ever, he talks like he knows everything without realizing in the first place that he failed the most important task of all, having a fully functioning not broken boat!
Exactly. The repaired boat rudder should have been thoroughly checked and tested before participating in a long distance boat race. No mention here of his negligence.
That thought crossed my mind too.
Worst captain ever, confidence mixed with stupidity and negligence
Hindsight is 20/20.. he’s human.. every commenter loves acting as if their so flawless.
@@countttup4574 Woulda, shoulda, coulda... not good enough when you the lives of others in your hands. Of course we all learn from our mistakes, but that is when we are in uncharted territory. This man 'should' have know that the keel needed more attention, he could have double checked with another experienced yacht, and of course, if he had known it was going to break apart so easily, then he probably would have seen to its integrity... BUT HE DIDN'T. If you are going to get in front of a camera after it all and still have that sense of self pride... I don't think he warrants a lot of compassion.
What a true hero. Wow, Roger, you are the man. Respect and RIP dear sir
The helicopter NEVER sees them the first time.
It is amazing how many of these water survival stories are and how a good bit of them were SO close to getting help yet they weren't seen by a fishing boat or some other vessel. Someone needs to invent a louder than loud whistle, a high powered GPS transmitter and a water filtration system built into the jacket. Screw the cost. Life is invaluable.
It's not that easy. There would be millions in trial and error and what if they stop working? THEN what?
@MasterOfViewership Everything goes through the same process and all we can do is try. I didn't say it's easy, if it was then we'd have them. However I would wager a year's salary that it would not take millions unless you have to work with the US Navy or NOAA and use manufacturers like DARPA and Raytheon.
Which would be required, as they're the experts@@Ozzywozzy
@@MasterOfViewership Yes but not the only experts. Hell, Steve Callahan who survived 76 days at sea invented a life raft that was more equipped for survival, without such help. Anyone can do anything if they are passionate about it. Seems we think life jackets, whistles and lights are all anyone ever needs...
@@Ozzywozzywhy don't you do it then?
Incredible that before a really big sailing trip no one dove under the boat to make sure there were no cracks, holes, leaks. I check my car for fluid levels/leaks, turn signals, etc once a week as vehicle maintenance. If it’s your mode of transportation and your safety/life depends on it, it should be checked regularly. Especially before a big trip! Derp. How he missed such damage beneath the boat is insane!
Smh no one does that
I thought the same, particularly in the light of the boat having been (apparently) in a collision prior. But, I didn't see details on that incident shown (might have skipped over it). It could be that it had been inspected since the incident with no indication of cracks. Suspicious though.
This immediately caught my attention too. The skipper was aware of previous damage that had been repaired. Did he have the bottom of the boat thoroughly checked before embarking on a long distance race? If not, this negligence caused the death of a man.
This boat had undergone substantial repairs to the bolt-on keel after previous damage, but modified with different backing plates that altered the stress distribution among other documented changes. Pushing it hard in rough conditions may have contributed to the catastrophic failure, the backing plates peeled open the bottom like a can of sardines. The hull was recovered and reinspected, this sinking is well understood.
So experienced you wouldn't call for a mayday right when you noticed the water?
Right
They REALLY should've swam for the oil rig. They would have been spotted and someone would have thrown them down a line. There are also ladders to climb out. They have safety systems in place in case someone falls into the water.
If you ever find yourself in a similar situation, or even getting lost on land, off grid…always keep moving if the temperature is cold. Swim or walk before your body seizes up from cold. Keep the blood flowing. Without water the cells in your body can’t contract and expand or move around causing hypothermia but moving is your only chance
Being from Alaska and out in a survival suit was hard enough to endure.. how scary with just a life jacket
Roger Stone (RIP) is a hero! The coast guard tracking the ocean currents is a hero along with search and rescue crew and the 5 men are survivors and heroes! ☺🍺🙏
Being stranded in water is my least favorite ways to leave this earth. I’ve been bitten by a Man of war down in SC and it took almost 3 weeks for that nerve ending pain to go away.
You have favorite ways to leave earth??
@@borkboxtv8167lol sounds like he’s done it many times before 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣@@pebblesnano414
In these scenarios you really only have to start getting worried after that second day passes or the didn’t get a mayday signal sent out.
The skipper should’ve known the coast guard and track currents and had advanced technology, they’re going to look for a week or so, just give it time
I find it interesting that we can’t see far off planets, yet the Coast Guard is not given technology to see orange, lifevest, in even the vast ocean
The captain did not even attempt to help Roger 😪 he should have tried to help Roger..
That is amazing. To be honest this is one of the few that everything was done right. And the love and sacrifice of that crew member ensured them the best chance to survive. I’m so glad almost all of them made it. The one that didn’t will always be watching over them. Bless him and his family.
I have never seen this episode, thank you for posting it!
I love this series but surely the depiction cannot be accurate, no racer wears that type of life jackets anymore. They wear automatic inflatable jackets that have personal location beacons or at the least a man overboard beacon installed that means as soon as you fall overboard the life jacket inflates and the mob beacon is activated. Also racers are required to have automatic floating epirbs attached to their vessel. Must be different in US or an old story. Thank goodness they survived well except the hero of the story Roger may he rest in peace.
I love this series, but it makes me rethink every step I take on any journey. I guess thats a good thing😂
Where were the other boats in the race?
That’s a great question. You’d think the boats would be everywhere. 🤔
When they swam through the hull they didn’t have life jackets but when they reached the surface they did?
I wondered that too
Skipper Steve first man to jump off the boat and save himself 💪💪
He told the rest to get off as well and in this situation there's nothing you can do you are not stronger than a boat
He was the guide though,he has all the experience to guide,.. Hes not skipping just 4 himself
😂😂😂😂 why
This just makes me think of the animal voice over of the prairie dog "Steve! Steve!!"
I can't imagine the feeling of being lost at sea. Just to be surrounded by endless miles of water is overwhelming!
Thank you for sharing that you've learned how short life can be.
It always seems to be at night when all of the sudden the boats start flooding in these episodes.
Steve the skipper saved himself first. If the others could figure out how to save themselves so be it. How pathetic this guy is.
You should bé so ashamed
Can't save others if you can't save yourself first.
This one brought tears to my eyes.
I love I should'n be alive, I have watched all the episode , please have more thank you
I shouldn't be alive:
Walked barefoot over Lego bricks.
I shouldnt be alive either. Patted my cat on her belly.
*huge respect for the survivors in this series. R.I.P to those that didnt make it.
best show in the world
There's a survival stroke swimming that you can do where you're mostly underwater so the wind isn't going to get you too bad and it doesn't use as much energy and you can swim all day like that
Absolutely riveting story
I have to wonder if the last man Rodger pushed through could have held back and waited outside and pulled Rodger through or, if Rodger could have waited for the boat to fill with water, then, when the water stopped flowing, made his way out? Also, it's impossible to swim with a life jacket on. I think i would have taken my life jacket off and tied it around my neck and just let it float above my chest and sidestroked towards the oil rig. Sidestroke using the least amount of energy possible. Not swimming all out, just gentle strokes, (bringing your palms up the side of your body then out and stroke towards your feet and not breaking the surface) and, every few minutes, check to see if I'm getting any closer. The fact that they stayed so close to it for so long tells you the current wasn't very strong. They should have been able to make it.
These ones are the most terrifying - just lost floating in the vast ocean? Of all the disaster scenarios, this among the top scariest…
It seems like all these boats always have emergency equipment, but they’re never able to get to it in an actual emergency. So how do you even really prepare for emergencies??
Oh my, yes. The water, ocean stuff, holy smokes! I think that'd be the most terrifying. It seems like the feeling of helplessness would be the most intense.
Would a floating survival kit trailing the boat be a possibility?
Not sure what it would consist of but something you could release in a matter of seconds, something that is easy to open.
I’m not a sailor and have very little knowledge of being out at sea but it was just a thought. 🤷🏼♂️
@@PaulTaylor80 Excellent question, I've wondered 🤔 the same myself.
I've always wondered why not have some utilities attached to the life vests
They swam out through the hatch with nothing but pop up out of the water with life jackets on??
Finding water above the floorboards IS VERY UNUSUAL!!!
Terrified beyond belief that young guy said no doubt about that freaking nightmare🤦🏻♀️
What a long time in the ocean!!!!!
This was really scary..glad u r okay
Just the thought of helplessly floating out in the ocean triggers serious claustrophobia.
Oh god not the manowar those stings hurt just as bad as those blue bottles omg the stings hurt so badly it can send a person into a heart attack or seizure 😩when I got stung I literally started sweating bad hyperventilating and passed out
Isn't there infrared that can help rescuers see people on the ocean?
Aww! Roger You are in Paradise with Jesus. Your a HERO for saving those young men! Rip!! Im so happy the others made it!❤❤
And this is why you do careful Maintenance on any boat particularly one that has been damaged and strengthen the area …
Skipper Steve was the first off the boat, didnt go back for Rodger but did go back for a floating donut
How dare you, you obviously understand nothing.
He uncliped ans told thé others
To do thé same and he went back for thé "donut "to help the Guy who had no life saver.
@@Tullinia He sent the other 2 guys to get the donut, then called them back when they couldn't get it untangled.
As soon as you herd water should have gotten ready to ditch and grab all your gear
I knew what a keel was.. I knew the concept of a sailboat. I never once connected the dots as to how that keel and the sails are constantly fighting eachother. You lose that keel.. may as well dive into the ocean. Scary shit.
I’ve also read the best Yechters can’t swim. That’s part of the fun for them.. here I was thinking it was some wussy white-dude shit.
The hose kids all had serious guts. Never panic, doesn’t help shit.
Do they use infrared to help find people at sea? I think it would make it much easier. Especially at night. Even though flying over the ocean at low altitudes during the night is seriously dangerous
Rest In Peace Roger. 💔
Roger is a hero no doubt
What a Hero
Before going out to sea or even getting out of bed….. PRAY before doing anything.
It's crazy to think out of all of the people in this situation, not one of them had the time to send out a signal, or grab a life raft.
Skipper Steve is catching a lot of heat in the comments. I won't defend his mistake of boat maintenance. However, I wouldn't call him the "worst skipper ever". His leadership kept them alive. I can't imagine the guilt going through his mind during and after this ordeal. I doubt any of the men blame Steve for what happened. Also, RIP Roger Stone, true legend.
i hate how they represented steve in the reenactments as if he's missing a chromosome or something
Everyone one of these that involves boats the crew could never get to the survival equipment.
That Roger guy will be grinning on the bed of the Gulf.
Pretty crazy that they could see coast guard but they couldn't see 4 blaze orange floating blobs. Kinda lame on coast guards end when I can spot blaze orange vests 10 miles away with binos
Roger, what a man. Rip
Why doesn't any search expedition use binoculars to see far? In addition, it always looks like the pilot is flying the search plane over a specific channel rather than in increasing circles and this is less effective in my opinion because when you go around in an increasing circle you cover more area
Those helicopters have info red. Spotting something from the air is literally like finding a needle in a haystack.
Rip roger 💎
RIP Mr Stone. Also a Man of War won't kill you. It just hurts like a bitxh.
roger is a hero. he is a kind person 🥺
Heart of courage by 2 steps from hell 👀 haha
i wonder if roger waited till the cabin was almost full so there wasnt that much pressure able to get in before getting out.. im not seaman or special boy or anything but it seems like it would equal out really quick given the current coming in and then it would be equalized
This is so torturing!!! Kicking in water.
i like going out on the ocean. but we rarely ever go past ten miles or so. even at that ive had my fun i stay away from boats just because.. ocean is a horrible place to get stuck haha
God bless Roger Stone
God is good all the time
I’m quite proud of myself. As I’m watching these survival videos I pause them and ask myself what is the best thing to do. This one I didn’t give up hope once they said a beacon had found the boat AND.. then I said to myself all they have to do is study the currents and there they are. I WAS going to get mad if they called the search off during the night because that’s just cruel. To call the search off for anybody is to assume you are there and know what’s happened. You can be SO WRONG!!! I wouldn’t want that onMY conscience.!!
The Captain should have been prosecuted for taking a damaged boat onto the open ocean with a crew of beginners
I know their feeling!! I forgot to put my plug in my boat onetime!
Here we go again… people yelling and thinking they will be heard from 3 miles away over a set of headphones and noisy rotors ..😂😂
guy in charge of the music was doing a lot of blow
How come life jackets don’t have built in epirbs or gps trackers? I’m genuinely curious
I would like to think that I'd be like Roger Stone, but I wonder. Would I do that? Really? Sometimes, being a real man is hard.
It takes alot of days to break keel bolts or suffer corrosion...no blame, but it is more important than the mast..🤯
