    Blessed be Roger. Your sacrifice saved their lives. May the afterlife be rewarding for you.
  • @Tedanson
    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.
  • @tylersmith8045
    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!
  • @ammielcasey5507
    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.
  • @alexalt2630
    The rule of I shouldn’t be Alive is that the first chance at rescue never works
  • @nickreed3031
    I watch tons of YouTube channels. This is my favorite series
  • 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!
  • @kieranhart5776
    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.
  • @SRose-zs3mu
    So sad Roger lost his life. He was a hero! The others survival is a miracle. God had his hand on them.
  • @adammitchell3462
    That roger guy was a great crewman who did that right thing, knowing that it meant his own demise
  • @Godisintheroom
    Please come out with a new season!! I miss this show so much! I watched every episode when it came out years ago.

    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.

    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.

  • @cef_outdoors
    The captain was the first to unhook himself when he should been climbing back on for survival gear.
  • @CanuckTony
