Love how they are teaching the next generation how to survive in the water and react to a rescue situation. That makes them that much calmer and easier to deal with come a real rescue situation.
Ida council I am thankful for them... behind & forward! All of you have a place of importance when you pickup a individual (or more). God Bless Your husband! REALLY & TRULY!!
zain ali, you have a cruel personality. No need being a inflamed zit that needs popping. What have you done positively and constructively to help the Earth and your fellow human beings? Have a great day and God Bless and be safe.
I'd like to say, I grew up on Kodiak in the early 00's and got that same survival training they got at 16:50. It's stuck with me waaay longer than 2-3 days, I still talk about it to anyone that will listen. One of the coolest memories in my life, thanks Coast Guard!
We really need pools in schools and similar training here in Florida. You'd be shocked by the number of people who grow up here and don't know how to swim or basic water safety or survival skills. The number of people who can't swim that go to the beach and participate in water sports and boating is mind-boggling as well. I don't remember a time when I wasn't a strong swimmer. I don't remember a time when I didn't know how to handle a riptide or getting caught up in waves or pool safety or to wear a life vest. These are all things that should be taught in school here. Kudos to Alaska for teaching their children basic water safety and swimming ❤
I've been watching this show for a couple of days because of my Kodiak memories. It's funny when the guy says the kids will tell others about the swim classes for two or three days when I've been telling my wife about my Kodiak swim classes 3 decades later!
Absolutely agree. I was preparing myself for that story to have a sad ending. 2 nights in the Alaskan wilderness with jeans and a sweat shirt sounds like a good recipe for severe hypothermia.
Dogs will do anything for kisses and cuddles. I was disappointed that this was titled that the dog helps find her when we only saw 30 seconds of the dog. haha
Can you imagine how great this girl felt when she realized how much personnel and resources just for her, along with her family and community! I don't see her leaving Alska anytime soon! I am a former Fire Chief and Paramedic and have worked along side USCG, SAR, US and Alska wildlife officials teams and the National Park Service! Sadly 2 of the searches did not end well like a small plane crash and someone who fell into a rapid waterfalls in the middle of the park. The plane crash incident had resources cost between all agencies was around 2 Million before we found the deceased and the crashedvaircraftit and with over 300 personnel over the time once notified and 5.4 Million with over 500 personnel to search for the foreign citizen visiting the Alska wilderness! It was so very sad to tell the family we couldn't find the individual alive and well with all victims! When we did have a good rescue it was most rewarding feeling! Even just one life is priceless!
Ha!!! Oh my gosh!! I could not help but laugh out loud when Michaela said “this is the one day I’m gonna be hugging people” because I have a 13-year-old daughter and that would literally be the exact thing she would say. So funny. I’m so glad she’s OK.
13 years old, no survival skills and not familiar to the area and she decided to take a hike by herself. She's lucky she was found within a couple days because that would have been a far worse story if she'd been out there for much longer
@@jennifermarshall4780 Actually her aunt said that the girl was originally from Nevada and had only been living in the area for six months. She was probably still getting used to the area and simply got over-confident.
Great job to search and rescue. They found her, warmed her and fed her. That young lady is a smart and strong.😊💕 Big thank you to the USCG, well done👍🏻
Love this!! Survival skills are one of the most important things to teach kids!! I went through survival training as a flight nurse in the Airforce… I LOVED IT!
I think the Coast Guard is absolutely one of the best first responders group there is. Thank god I have never needed them and don’t live in Alaska or any remote areas but the people that do are extremely lucky to have them. God bless them
I’ve learned a lot about The Coast Guard through these videos. Thank you for your service. I watched another search and rescue called The Horn, Air Zermatt in Switzerland a few years back, and their commitment and skill is similar
Coast guard: Don't worry we'll find your loved ones. Are they familiar with the area? Me: No, ones from NYC, the other 2 from Dallas and L.A. Coast guard: I'm so sorry for your loss.
Chris Belise - you are my favorite! Love your outlook on teaching the kids, interacting with the survivors, and generally getting along with everyone. You are an inspirational person for sure. I see that you are intelligent by the thought through actions you take, but you don't seem to be ego driven. Just want to say Thank You very much for all work you do and almost more importantly for the great example you are setting. I certainly wish I could be as good a person as I've seen of you.
In Alaska Thank God they come out to save people! Alaska has so many remote places plus the sea. 🐾🐬 It's a gorges place ALASKA, but you have to be on guard for the times you think you're safe... 🚸
That young girl was actually the most amusing and heroic thing I've ever heard OF and all thanks to the men and women from the coast guard that young girl is absolutely tough YOU GO YOUNG LADY !!!!
The ground crew that searched for that missing girl should've gotten the credit for finding her..all the credit went to the air and rescue team from the Coast Guards when they didn't even find her..all they did was pick her up once she was found. I'm not saying they did nothing cuz the job they do is amazing and they helped look for her but at least give some credit to the people who actually found her which never happened. That's all I'm saying!
incredible stories! Alaskans seem to be very hardy people - livin’ up there is not easy. those Coast Guys are terrific. i know how it feels to have strong, professional people come and help. been in 2 fires here in NYC, NY. Firepeople are THE best!!! Nurses and EMS people are wonderful, too. :) 🌷👨🏽🚒👩🏻🔬🦸♀️
Please at least give your kid a whistle and tell them to keep buildings in sight. If their like my oldest they might not listen to the second part but the whistle can really help.
Came looking for this comment. I was really worried at the beginning, thinking she had little to no survival skills and being new to the wilderness. Seems like she's a pretty smart kid who did well with very little. Hope she takes a basic course and never leaves without full pockets.
@@Brucev7 Not really lost lost. When we were kids, my friend and I would take off to the woods for the weekend just for fun to test ourselves. We cheated in the winter and took snowshoes, sleeping bags and prepared food. In the summer months though we relied on fish we could catch. Well, that and chips and Pepsi! LOL We wanted to prove to our Dads that we were just as able in the bush as the boys were so they'd take us on their fly-out fishing weekends sometimes. I do know what it takes to live in the wilderness for a few days. Kidlet was not so outdoorsy but I made her and her Brownie troop learn the basics. Some of the Moms were concerned that Kidlet reported one Monday that her Mom let her play with matches. That was so she could learn how to build a fire LOL
Hint from a CNA... When someone is in the water & needs to get in the boat... @18:09 in video Slide YOUR WHOLE RIGHT ARM UP TO THIER SHOULDER... LIFT YOUR ARM UP & LOCK THEIR SHOULDER BETWEEN YOURS... SO YOU'RE LOCKING SHOULDERS... Than turn to your LEFT to drag them onto your back a bit, and it's EASY PEASY to drag em right out over your shoulder, because you're using your whole body & back muscles INSTEAD of just your wiped out arm muscles. You can literally roll right over and take them with you, into the boat. Try it. I think you'll be surprised how much easier it is to lift someone out of the water. And remember, use your back, shoulder, body, and leg muscles whenever you can leverage them. It's not only safer lifting, it's SO MUCH easier! And ladies & kids, you'll be amazed at how much more weight you can lift EASILY without killing yourself doing it. Especially if you're trying to lift a grown man into a boat or any other place. Always use your body & legs. This is how we lift people up out of wheelchairs. By locking shoulders & just standing up. No lifting pain or strain. Just lock shoulders & stand up using your whole body muscles instead of just your arms. Same process can be used here, but with a lock shoulders, roll & pull motion. Leverage is everything, when you're trying to lift or move!
When we were mushroom picking and someone failed to show up by around dusk, we would sit on the road below the area (pickers typically head out uphill and come out downhill) and would blow our car horns to give the lost one a direction to travel.
Now she's a girl dad should be very proud of. Awesome young lady to even think of what to do in her situation. Many would have come home in a body bag. God bless her. I've got a feeling she'll become a coast guard
Yeah, my service dog would’ve been like, “NOPE! It’s a monster!” 😂. He’s my everything, super helpful. he still would go if my life depended on it. I could de-sensitize him to it. But knowing he’s not the only working dog who’s wary (SAR guy had to pick him up and carry him in) is reassuring!
It surprises me that not every rescue flight that goes out, there isn't a Corpsman on board to push drugs and start IVs. I like that on the rescue flights. I love this series. The men and women are so well trained. The Coast Guard is definitely risking Their lives to rescue many. The rescue swimmer, flight Mechanic, 2 pilots are Heros!!
@@jthrasher47 correct. I was referring to the pushing higher level drugs portion of the message. Trust me I know. I was a 91 Bravo in the Army. Combat medic. Did my AIT in Ft Sam. :-)
@@BeezerMN well great awesome they are much needed and I always respected them. All that pressure especially in a combat zone.. 11b here. and yes you're right only some are trained enough to push the higher drugs but not your common medic.. I could be wrong but I believe PJs are.. most PJ's I dealt with were only on medevac
Of course Makayla was all right! They's a hardy bunch in Southeast. I bet this series does wonders for Coast Guard recruitment. My family and I lived in Southeast for 20 years, and we have nothing but mad respect for the United States Coast Guard!
What a great group of people, people in remote areas have a professional caring organisation looking after them. Here in Australia, we have the Royal Flying Doctor Service who do a similar role. All great people from admin to on the ground.
Jay Bird At the end of that part of the video, she had a puppy in her arms and they said it was the reason she was out walking. Walking a puppy sounds so innocent, so harmless...
Not only in Alaska, but any rural area, If you go into the woods, bring a couple orange smoke candles and a orange hand flare. Depending on the area, bring a revolver also. If you're old enough to go out you're old enough to use all three.
@@jennifermarshall4780 Thanks, Jennifer, for your reply. She was a fortunate girl. It does not take long for hypothermia to set in, causing reduced ability to care for yourself as well as poor decision making ability. I live alone, so I bring all three even when I'm just in in the back field. If , for example, the tractor rolls over, I could be in deep trouble really quickly.
16:59 No one commenting on the guy walking casually in shorts with snow on ground?... Lol I know when we were teens we'd do that but I outgrew it long ago! Brrr.
Living in Alska and after living there and thinking 0*F degrees is warm means you live in a cold environment! Once back in the lower 48 my body re-adapted to warmer temperatures! Lol, it made me snicker and smile!
The U.S. Coast Guard was the first military service to use canines. They would take them on patrol boats throughout the So. Pacific and use them to find Japanese soldiers. The dogs would find the Japanese soldiers scent and hunt them down. They were trained to find their scent by using imprisoned Japanese Americans by getting the dogs used to their scents.
Not sure if she had any tech with her, but nowadays you have cell phones with gps and there's also tracking devices...so people have many ways to be found if they get lost. It's a relief this child turned out to be safe and sound. Alaska is a gorgeous place...and I happen to like the rain...so I hope to visit it sometime...it'd also be good to see it by air as well.
Even adults with hiking experience should never solo hike.. I’m so happy to hear the 13 year old was found safe because that story could have had a very tragic end
LoL. That was my first thought. Haha. I was kinda surprised they jumped to that so quick. It ia MUCH hard to be pulled out but I am guessing the main reason was because he blew veins by pulling out the peripheral lines they placed and they needed to have access. A line into the bone like this is also probably very welcome once they get to hospital as it allows for larger volume and speeds of infusion. During my 2nd sepsis they could get a line in for the life of me (literally lol). Obvs my port was pulled and they couldn't place a direct central line because of the infection. But being on 100% iv nutrition plus the obnoxious meds we needed solid lines. Getting jugular catheters on each side kinda makes me wonder if I'd rather they had gone into the bone.
i'M WONDERING WHY THEY DIDN'T SEDATE HIM AND THEN DO AN IV. (oops-caps lock). If they told me I was going to have my bone drilled, I'd have stood on my head to avoid that!
@@nancygalloway9720 You typically need IV access to sedate someone. So that isn't an option. It is a standard practice in a lot of instances to use the IO (bone) access. I think they did a good Jobe in this case.
Darlin' next time you go hiking take survival gear (tent, jacket, beanie, gloves, blanket, water, food, matches,) even though you might just be going for a short walk...and never go alone!!!! Dad what were you thinking letting her go alone, esecially when you were newcomers???? Thank goodness for the community minded people and the coast guard. Maybe 3 years on you are thinking of joining the coast guard yourself young lady!!! Have a great life..love from Western Australia ❤🦘🦘🦘🦘
the US Coast Guard is a mix of angels and hero's and doesn't get enough recognition
Thank God for the USCG!
Your 100% correct. These Brave men and women have "nerves of steel".
Agreed.

She also went through a creek for no clear reason, getting unnecessarily wet.

@@jennifermarshall4780 Thanks, Jennifer, for your reply. She was a fortunate girl. It does not take long for hypothermia to set in, causing reduced ability to care for yourself as well as poor decision making ability. I live alone, so I bring all three even when I'm just in in the back field. If , for example, the tractor rolls over, I could be in deep trouble really quickly.
Good Advice 👍
Definitely a good investment of tax dollars. Thank you for the heart warming story.
Would've been terrified of bears. Bless her

No one commenting on the guy walking casually in shorts with snow on ground?... Lol
I know when we were teens we'd do that but I outgrew it long ago! Brrr.
That would be my hotbox of a brother 😂
It's not a big deal. I lived 3 years up north, further north than this, and your body becomes climatized after the first winter.
Living in Alska and after living there and thinking 0*F degrees is warm means you live in a cold environment! Once back in the lower 48 my body re-adapted to warmer temperatures! Lol, it made me snicker and smile!
The U.S. Coast Guard was the first military service to use canines. They would take them on patrol boats throughout the So. Pacific and use them to find Japanese soldiers. The dogs would find the Japanese soldiers scent and hunt them down. They were trained to find their scent by using imprisoned Japanese Americans by getting the dogs used to their scents.
Angel's of the Sky , Yes !!
I'm happy the girl was happy and found and healthy and doing well 😊😊😊😊
Our Alaskan coast guard are the best up here, simple!👍
Not sure if she had any tech with her, but nowadays you have cell phones with gps and there's also tracking devices...so people have many ways to be found if they get lost. It's a relief this child turned out to be safe and sound. Alaska is a gorgeous place...and I happen to like the rain...so I hope to visit it sometime...it'd also be good to see it by air as well.
Love the Coasties. You are true heroes.
“And a spider” “wHaT” 👁👄👁
Even adults with hiking experience should never solo hike.. I’m so happy to hear the 13 year old was found safe because that story could have had a very tragic end
This is such a great show. Y’all are great!
Angles Of The Sky , I
Love that y’all Rock
Coast Guard Alaska you do a awesome job at saying lives 😅😅😅😅🎉
God bless all who went to search for her
USCG: “Hey Puppy.”
Dog: “Oh HELL no!”
Great job guys you've come as long way from when I was in the service
Can't handle a needle, so they drill into the bone instead? That sounds much, much worse.
LoL. That was my first thought. Haha.
I was kinda surprised they jumped to that so quick. It ia MUCH hard to be pulled out but I am guessing the main reason was because he blew veins by pulling out the peripheral lines they placed and they needed to have access. A line into the bone like this is also probably very welcome once they get to hospital as it allows for larger volume and speeds of infusion. During my 2nd sepsis they could get a line in for the life of me (literally lol). Obvs my port was pulled and they couldn't place a direct central line because of the infection. But being on 100% iv nutrition plus the obnoxious meds we needed solid lines.
Getting jugular catheters on each side kinda makes me wonder if I'd rather they had gone into the bone.
@@justcallmejessz3712 for real, unless theyre coding or need meds at that exact second IO is excessive
i'M WONDERING WHY THEY DIDN'T SEDATE HIM AND THEN DO AN IV. (oops-caps lock). If they told me I was going to have my bone drilled, I'd have stood on my head to avoid that!
@@nancygalloway9720 You typically need IV access to sedate someone. So that isn't an option. It is a standard practice in a lot of instances to use the IO (bone) access. I think they did a good Jobe in this case.
@@Tgolden069 Thanks for the reply--I was actually thinking of an injection (a shot), but I'm no expert, and I'm sure they did the best they could. :)
@ 12:11 i love how the father is eating a doughnut while his 13 year old daughter who was left is the wilderness for 2 days hasn't eaten a thing
I know 😂
Exactly! That made me mad! He has NO clue. Parents......
None of them seemed very bright..
Honestly she could have eaten off camera or not been hungry due to being sick/dehydrated.
Respect
Angels in the sky :D
I'm proud of you all. Did a great job
Awesome teaching the kids
My mom and her siblings got lost in the woods when they were really young and spent the night in the woods
How’s they find their way out? Or did someone find them?
Darlin' next time you go hiking take survival gear (tent, jacket, beanie, gloves, blanket, water, food, matches,) even though you might just be going for a short walk...and never go alone!!!! Dad what were you thinking letting her go alone, esecially when you were newcomers???? Thank goodness for the community minded people and the coast guard. Maybe 3 years on you are thinking of joining the coast guard yourself young lady!!! Have a great life..love from Western Australia ❤🦘🦘🦘🦘
Yes God bless and protect each and everyone. Of them.
I agree with low amount of views and such a good show
This was originally aired on the Weather channel.
Amazing job
