Shows like this make thankful for my simple life of working, paying bills, coming home to a warm shower and a comfortable bed. Waking up the next morning ,having a hot cup of coffee and doing it all over again.😇
I promise you I live thru everyone else lives 😊😅😢 especially here on TH-cam
Love water, heck grew up w/ pool end up dating a and marrying a woman w/ a pool - had a pool at almost every townhouse Apt I've lived...but still have no desire to travel some 2-5,000 miles across the dang ocean lol! They're brave but it seems almost all sea goers end up in some kind of peril. But it beats falling out of the sky, I GUESS?.
RIP to Roger Stone. A hero. No arguing that either. The man a straight up legend.
I want tht was awesome knowing he was gone die an he saved toan I hope he felt no pain father god an he was in heaven before his last breathe went out amen
No one RIP unless they got saved by Jesus
@@amberrose1108 that makes no sense, God himself doesn't require "You have to believe in Jesus", otherwise, he would not have allowed other religions to co-exist with Christanity. You just have to do good and live an admirable life, regardless of what you believe in personally. If there is a heaven, this man is definitely there.
Absolutely not true @@PacMan755 that guy is right. The other religions are created by demons operating through people. God did not create other religions
Helping those young students knowing your not going to make it out is more than a hero. Rest that mans soul.
Absolutely 💯. Rest in peace 🙏
If I’ve learned anything from this series and watching them over again.. if you are ever lost don’t get excited about the first helicopter. They will never see you
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.
Simple question: where was their automatic life raft?
Sorry to say but I don't know an experienced yachtsman that would go out on a yacht without knowing that yacht had one and that it was up to date with it's compliance.
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?
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 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
sure you would
@@taufortune8213wow i didn’t think of that!😟
I am so glad they survived and what a sacrifice the gentleman that died did for them rip 😢
I grew up in a fishing town in Mexico, we saw many dead people due to drowning 😢❤
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.
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
Ya and you will die with no amazing story’s or tales to tell. Not saying to be stupid but life should be risked or it’s not a life worth living
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.
Hats off to US coastguard not giving up for the night.
I love I should'n be alive, I have watched all the episode , please have more thank you
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.
It’s so sad that one of them couldn’t make it, 48m went fast without realizing! Seeing them struggling and trying to attract vessels’ attention tears me up😭. And the last thing when helicopter comes my heart skips a beat!
Rest In Peace Roger. 💔
If they were doing an open ocean race how did they not get the boat examined by a proper mechanic or whatever a boat mechanic is called to make sure it was ocean worthy? How do you start a race like that and not make sure your boat is sound? Seems like the first thing you should do, even before you start gathering up needed supplies.
Something creepy about swimming up to a random oil rig in the ocean.
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
Roger, what a man. Rip
best show in the world
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
Aww! Roger You are in Paradise with Jesus. Your a HERO for saving those young men! Rip!! Im so happy the others made it!❤❤
Thank you for sharing that you've learned how short life can be.
The ocean is a great place, until you can't see land 😮
Why didn't the helicopters do circling maneuvers out and around from the beacon signal they got? I seen 3 or 4 helicopters and they just flew over top of the area? Someone should have already had the current direction before even going out to do the search. Or radioed it to 1 of the rescue helicopters so they didn't have to go back in.
I can't believe a ruddy great Noah or two didn't make a meal of these guys
Why didn't the second one grab Roger's arm and pull him out with him?!?
Easy for you to say but you weren't there
Too bad they didn't have a feminist there to save the day 😂
He had to push him through current how can he push him through while someone grabbing his arm it would've been impossible
@@TheBasedCanadianhuh?
Water pressure.
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
The horizon is only 2.9 miles away.
They were awfully jovial 10 minutes after they must have assumed roger was dead, or was at least missing and alone.
Absolutely riveting story
What a Hero
God Bless Roger for what he did !! He is a HERO !! : )
Jesus said "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." John 15:13 ✝❤
A'grin in the grave
A'grin neith the wave
At the end of rhe day
We lie the sane way
God bless Roger Stone
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.!!
It takes alot of days to break keel bolts or suffer corrosion...no blame, but it is more important than the mast..🤯
Hey Captain! What if Roger was your son, would you have tried to save him
I navigation to Vera Cruise and Tampico in Transportation Marina Mexico but I prefer to sail trimaran and thrash monohulls
Lump in my throat ,😢❤
Blessed be Roger. Your sacrifice saved their lives. May the afterlife be rewarding for you.
Afterlife? Hahahahahahaaa
@@simplylethul Just cause you're a piece of shit, doesn't mean we all are. Some of us can sympathize.
59 likes and 1 reply from some imp laughing angrily woa woa wooooaaaa let me catch you with a rod and reel and watch you fight like a mother ya little pig squeeling large mouthed bass i just want to snag something just like u with a fishing rod@@simplylethul
@@simplylethul just shut up dude
@@brx926 no, I'll continue to point out stupid human beliefs.
The captain of the boat should have been the one to help save Roger. He's the one that is supposed to, he's the captain. You help or you go down with your ship. He didn't even try to help.
Welp there was a extremely high chance he wouldn't of made it to Roger and if he didn't the rest would of likely died especially the guy without the lifejacket he would of defiantly died. The captain needed to be there for the others he did extremely well to look after them and keeping everyone together especially with the guy without the lifejacket.
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
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
No life jacket ? Abandon the raft? What a complete degen
Roger was a true general. May God bless his 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
That's what I thought, out of all the things in life this film made him thankful 😊
Not all hero's wear capes. rest in peace Roger🙏🏻.
ROGER WAS A HERO♥️🌹
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!
The captain was the first to unhook himself when he should been climbing back on for survival gear.
Im😂screaming 😂
Well I’m sure he wasn’t thinking when the boat capsized…
It's obvious that he wasn't a hero..
its always easier to criticize these situations sitting behind your computer screen in your home comfortably than actually in a survival situation
Rodger the true definition of a hero, God Bless you sir.
That roger guy was a great crewman who did that right thing, knowing that it meant his own demise
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?@@SpicyTexan64
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!❤😇
Amen to that 🙏🏻 😊
I watch tons of TH-cam 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
So experienced you wouldn't call for a mayday right when you noticed the water?
Right
Exactly.. and no epirb.. no life raft.. no ditch bag...
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.
Jesus gave his life to save our souls.
The captain did not even attempt to help Roger 😪 he should have tried to help Roger..
He couldn’t or he would have died as well
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.
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.
The more reason I fear lots of water 🥺... Rip Rodger
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 TH-cam. 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
RIP Braveheart Roger❤️💯
Rest in peace, Sir Roger. May all respect be given to you. Congrats to the men, enjoy your lives to the fullest for Sir Roger.
Rest In Peace Rogar Sir
Before going out to sea or even getting out of bed….. PRAY before doing anything.
I think if I ever experienced anything like this it would put me off going out again
The Captain should have been prosecuted for taking a damaged boat onto the open ocean with a crew of beginners
The helicopter NEVER sees them the first time.
God is good all the time
Once again I have to compliment the amazing makeup. I mean the whole series is just outstanding, but the makeup adds so much to the drama. It gives a clue to how their bodies were suffering in the extreme conditions and how it affects them as the ordeal progresses. Just brilliant.
Where were the other boats in the race?
That’s a great question. You’d think the boats would be everywhere. 🤔
i hate how they represented steve in the reenactments as if he's missing a chromosome or something
You hate that you right ?
Y’all let him die 😢
Same way, he (Skipper Steve) knew it that it was shark 🦈 infested. Yet he wanted to take them race boat sailing. ⛵️ 🙄 😵💫
They swam out through the hatch with nothing but pop up out of the water with life jackets on??
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
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.
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
I can't imagine the feeling of being lost at sea. Just to be surrounded by endless miles of water is overwhelming!
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.
We don't tend to think 🤔💭 about this.. but.. imagine how many people were in similar situations that didn't survive
note to self : check keel before going out to sea.
Full inspection
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.
If roger could push someone through the hatch, couldnt dude #2 have pulled roger through the hatch?
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.
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.
Roger.. You are a real human! ❤️
Roger is what everyone should strive to be. An absolutely incredible man, rest in peace Roger you definitely deserve it!
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
Amazing work on the part of the Coast Guard!
Screw them all for leaving a man behind without attempting to help. A bunch of cowards with no honor in them especially the old guy who told them to basically not go back since Roger was experienced enough to get himself out of that situation. That statement killed a man. None of them was in danger if they tried to reach the hatch and pull him out. What Roger and the young men should've done was to tie a rope to one of the guys' feet before sending him out. This way Roger can attach the rope to his arm and while exiting the hatch the can pull him out from outside.
Anyhow, trying to honor Roger in the end is just cheap talk. Even one of the young men said the sacrifice Roger made made him wanna live life to the fullest. Really, that's what this is about? No, the experience you went through and getting close to death made you realize that but this has nothing to do with Roger's sacrifice. Sad really how this life is full of living selfish cowards and dead selfless heroes.
Roger was a hero but they are murderers. Roger pushed them through, and they could’ve pulled him through the other side to save him. They tried to act stupid like “maybe he made it on the other side of the boat” knowing damn well he didn’t.
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?
Rip Roger Stone a god damn hero you know he got a spot in heaven
When they swam through the hull they didn’t have life jackets but when they reached the surface they did?
I wondered that too
Why did they leave Roger behind..that was very wrong
You can’t fault them, in a situation like that there’s really nothing you can do..
literally wtf
Being from Alaska and out in a survival suit was hard enough to endure.. how scary with just a life jacket
If you’re thinking of going on a “wild adventure”, then do it now. Just go. You only live once. I really need some new episodes. I can only take so many reruns. 🤦 You can do this! 💪🏻
Make your own episode man. Go hike solo in the Everglades during the hurricane that's coming. That would be a cool story to hear.
