For this documentary, we followed the crew of the open sea tug « Abeille Bourbon » during several rescue operations. Follow us on social media : Facebook : / bestdocumentarytv
My husband worked at sea for 30 years. It was not until he retired that I could bring myself to watch videos like these, for we were both all too aware of the dangers out there. What brought me great comforted each time he went to sea was knowing that these rescue teams were out there, trained and ready to go at a moments notice, if they were needed. Thank you from myself, my husband, and our kids!
I want to express my gratitude to the heroes who risk their lives for others, and to the service workers who provide support for these critical operations. You really are heroes. I also express my admiration for the fishermen and others who work at sea under difficult conditions to support their families. May God protect you.
Thank you for this compelling story ; US Coastguard, private rescue/salvage crew and private yachtsmen heard/relayed our SOS, saved all 3 crew and the 30' pleasure craft, despite it taking water and powerless. Eternally grateful.
As a former US Coastguard ‘deckie’, I admire the layout of the”Abeille Bourbon”. For working towing hawsers in heavy seas that stern is well designed - open with high, clean rails to give as much safety to those at work. Beautiful boat. Good documentary and thank you.
@@thelthrythquezada8397 Great that you school arranged that field trip and I suppose good that you learned that one thing. USCG has plenty of billets on inland waters and navigation stations - all essential. I actually went to boot camp at age 26 -taking advantage just before cutoff. I’d done ‘high adventure’ work and fun before and as a free spirit I did not plan for a career in uniform. I was able to work above my pay grade at times and liked that. Open waters… no matter how calm, the first day out I was always queasy. But then got into it ; the more rough the better. Chow was good. As a Quaker, the Coast Guard appealed to me , adrenaline rush doing rescue with some real ‘I got your back’ moments. I miss that. Thanks for responding. Do well.
Every time I eat a lobster I think of how hard it was to catch it. We complain about the price but the sacrifice made by fishers that captured them on high seas is to be respected.
a big salute to the men & women who do this type of work world wide. Thanks for enlightening ! 🙏🏼👊🏼 We humans are far much capable of doing greater things than dividing and fighting stupid wars.
Those ocean tugs rescue boats are truly amazing vessels. The size and overall look of them is just awesome. As someone who has worked in the commercial fishing industry for over 25 years, I would love to spend some time on one of these, eagerly awaiting my first wheel watch.
I was on the abeille bourbon with Carlos as skipper during my maritime schooling, it's pretty boring. You can spend week in Brest doing nothing and weeks in Ushant waiting.
There is absolutely no admirable seamanship involved in Fishermens reckless behaviour, it's the complete opposite! Why do you think this branch are so deadly dangerous? Do you head out in open sea, under extreme weather warning? Greed and reckless behaviour isn't admirable!
If your out off the French coast and have a problem these are the very best people you want looking for you. These are the men who save lives and make the big bucks. My God there worth every nickel . THANKS SO MUCH. ALBERTA. CANADA
@@wixskid There are horrendous seas all over the globe. The Bering Sea and pretty much anywhere off Alaska is as bad as they come. The rescues that the USCG performs there is staggering. The crap that fishing vessels go out in there is just plain stupid.
That helicopter keeping station over that fishing boat in a storm was incredible. Without doubt those helicopter pilots are some of the best pilots in the world.
Well done, everyone; from the Narrator to the men and women who ply the seas daily for their catch, their cargo, their livelihoods. Kudos especially for those who risk life and limb to save and otherwise assist those in distress.
:INjured sailor at sea" IS NOT A NAME OF PLANE HOLY SHIT U NEVER SEEN PLANES ON TV SHOW..NAMED"INJURED AT SEA" NEITHER HAVE I CAN YOU PRONOUNCE "INJURED SAILOR AT SEA
Guy's like these i give my all respect to as they put their lives on the line to save those in need of saving their lives well done to you all always be safe out there
I only spent a few short years fishing but have them nightmares come back of the events that nearly killed me or the crew. But like you there days when it just hits you... I'd fucking love to be out there today and you remember one of them funny day where everything was goin well.. glorious weather excellent fishing the skipper has the crew buzzing around deck and best of all gear isn't coming up in Robbins spending hours on deck mending. Best and worst job in the world
It is interesting... Isn't it the same for any life threatening experience? War, mountain-climbing.... it is the best of time it is the worst of time. You tell yourself... That's it, if I make it alive I quit... And two months later you do it again.
...Great Job....I'm sixty....all I've seen before is the U.S. Coast Guard....represented....this all all new to me...I appreciate the number of hours invested ....Thank you for sharing...A.C.Feuerhelm
*I just love this narrator: He's really **_into_** all that he narrates, and this shows both interest and understanding of whatever is going on! . . . .* ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💓 😉👍
Brave Aircrews helping brave Mariners! The sight of all of the names of the fishing vessels and their Crews which have disappeared or are known to have been sunk was terrible, worse still was that there was still plenty of space for more names... I had no idea that so many vessels simply disappeared without even a Mayday broadcast. The families, the wives in particular must really hate that their loved one's go back out... My heart went out to the widowed mother whose son also became a Fisherman.
Huge respect to the mariners,and aircrew who go out In such horrendous conditions to save others.the Abeille Bourbon is a real beast of a ship. Thank you for the video
Im a retired U.S. Navy Helicopter Aircrewman/Rescue Swimmer. Our motto: "So Others May Live". We do it because we care! We want them to go home to their families.
man that first 15 sec of the video seeing that huge ship getting tossed around like a bathtub play toy definitely gives some perspective.. the sea is a beautiful and terrifying place
Kudos to search and rescue !! It’s shocking and a damning realization that a huge 100 ft vessel can get swallowed by the waves at sea. Lost forever in depth . Think I am getting sea sick I’m just watching
My religion, Islam, urges me to save lives, and I truly believe that whoever saves the life of one person is as if he saved the lives of many, so I am proud that I am a agent sergeant agent and my specialty is a search and rescue technician. Thank God for giving me this mighty work and this great job.. Greetings to all great saviors
I still remember the Gulf 1 sank in the coast of Japan 2019 only 2 crew survived. The vessel carried 60,000 cows all were drowned too. I saw their rescue mission video the waves were higher than buildings. Very scary!
It's an old video. The Super Frelon served with Flotille 32F of the French Aviation navale, operating from Lanvéoc-Poulmic in Brittany in the Search and Rescue role. They were retired on 30 April 2010. and the captain of the tugboat retired a long time ago.
Two shops talked about in this documentary about being involved in at sea collisions. Both Maltese flagged ships. Sounds like they are very laxed in maritime training. When in international waters, fear all Maltese flagged ships.
glorious Dutch accent on the fishing trawler from Urk... typical down-to-earth type of answer from the fisherman you'll get from ppl from that village... not bothered with anything particularly quickly...takes a heck of a problem for those guys to start panicking...

The pollution problem doesn’t seem to be important here, makes you wonder how many times this happens and is just kept quiet, scary...!! Loads of boats steaming ahead without a watch and like this guy said there is 15 different nationalities on board..? Surely this could be made safer..?
I remember back in the 1970s ship I worked on ,had a engine room fire just of Brest ,it was on a Sunday morning just at breakfast. We got fire under control with Co2, but couldn't start any of the aux engines ,we drifted till we got help ,got cold very quickly inside living quarters, we got towed into Brest, with all crew onboard save .

My mom and I always say how much we appreciate fishermen, it's not any easy life to put fresh fish on our dinner table. Thank you guys so much.
I don’t thank people who destroy the ecosystem of the deep sea with scrapping the sea floor with their nets like these guys here do!

Incredible documentary. Filming and narration is on another level. Simply superb. Thanks all who are behind this.
Kudos. Combine terrific seamanship and airmanship with bravery and dedication.

It nuts how fast a boat will sink..scary shit when your laying down in your bunk.
That why the EPIRBS are mandatory on most vessels

When the ocean starts whipping up huge swells, it's incredible power, but also beautiful. .
Brilliant video thank u

Remarkable courage and discipline, Do it again and again about which the public knows little.

Is there a volunteer service similar to this in America if anyone knows? Unfortunately, I can’t join the Coast Guard I’ve aged out.

I grew up in Seattle and deep sea fishing was talked about in a good way up until someone in the neighborhood got chopped up.
