Amazing Footage of the Rescue Swimmer Who Jumped Into a Superstorm | GQ

Simply because the USCG is not necessarily combat oriented they're often forgotten as a branch of our military but these guys have pulled my fat out of the fire on 2 separate occasions and they deserve so much more recognition than they get...as far as respect goes I hold them in the the absolute highest regard!!
Things for everything y'all do for us!!
Nobody cares about the coast guard until they need em
Not true, us grunts know. Coasties > Squids all day, everyday.
Its funny you say that because Navy and Coast Guard rescue swimmers up until recently went through the exact same rescue swimmer school after aircrew can school and even roomed together in the same room in the BEQ. One of my instructors was Coast Guard. However i would be wrong in saying that in the fleet it is also the same. Navy swimmers for the most part are crewman and the rescue swimmer part is secondary. Has it turns out there isnt that many planes going down in the ocean for us to get the call that often but when it does you need someone that knows how. Coast Guard primary mission is just that to pull people out that need help. Drunk surfer, folks on vacation, olympic swimmer with a cramp or a 747 that crashed in the ocean. No matter time or weather they will come for you but if all this occured in the past its a decent chance that coast guard rescue swimmer partner pushing that concrete block across the bottom of the pool was in the Navy. Just saying
Adrian Woodard, a 747 doesn’t just crash into the ocean. I’m an aviation enthusiast and I know that it does happen. But when it happens it’s not a controlled landing, even if it is it will most of the time end up in fiery catastrophe scene. No pilot who has enough control of the plane to ditch the plane would ditch it on water unless they’re running out of fuel or something with no other options.
TL;DR
No plane would land there with good control, most likely ending in an explosion like ‘landing’.
"Because even the Navy needs heroes"
My brother was a helicopter rescue swimmer in the coast guard for 15+ years. So very proud of him ❤️. For years it was difficult hearing the stories but now with him recently promoted to chief and no longer out in the helo’s I can watch footage. These men are true heroes.
I don't know how their helicopter can take off due to the massive weight of their balls. Props to the crew and to the helicopter.
Jorge Mendez it’s a superpuma can fly in any conditions
Get a new joke
That’s an original one😉
Julio Blind, I wouldn’t consider a crew with balls of steel being ‘a condition’.
lol. true that!
These guys should be paid a lot more than they get. Cut politicians wages by half and give it these heroes.
Standard military pay......
No we got paid more than that. You got automatic e4 after graduating RSS. Plus you got flight given you got your hours every month. Depending on the situation you could also get hazard duty pay.
Thanks
Id do it again for free if they feed me and bought my dr pepper and clothes.
heli tack Originally politicians were never supposed to be paid. Take all their pay and raise he all military pay.
My hat is off to the brave men and women who risk their lives every time they fly out to save others. Anyone who does this for a living has my respect forever. God bless you all.
Swimming in 60 mph winds and 12 foot swells to rescue 12 men and didn't lose a single one. That's a life well-lived.
My son was a Navy rescue swimmer. I am very proud of him.
Billy Bob well I took it as he did rescue swimming in the past and now he's alive and onto something else. I think you read it wrong but I'm no English pro 😊
TilemanSD no one asked about your son, did you just come to this video to say that ?
Noah H no asked you to mock this guy but here you are
the guy with gills yes, there is no need to thank me. For I am just a normal citizen who wants people to know how dumb they sound
Army vet here. Thanks to your son for his service.
God, it gives me chills to hear someone say that. As a coastie, when someone asks what you do and you can tell them “I’m a rescue swimmer”....it’s like saying “I’m John, I’ve been in the coast guard for 10 years...and I’m mutherf--ing Superman.”
This is so cool! I want to become a coast guard rescue swimmer when I’m older, I love to swim and I’m in love with helping people. This is generally just my dream job,
These people do so
Much just to save others!
the food chain in the ocean: shrimps
So others may live.
So that others may live
@@scotrule6128 "So others may live" is the USCG rescue swimmer motto.
"That others may live" is the motto of the USAF Pararescue airmen or "PJs".
Oh calm down
So that others may live. Doc
Amazing men. The definition of " a man's man"
With my most respect to this swimmer and to all CG.
I’m here after reading about this rescue in Rachel Slade’s Into the Raging Sea. You guys do something that’s so amazing and unbelievable. You are real heroes of the world.
True hero's one and all, thank you for your tireless efforts in saving those in distress.
All my respect to this brave men! 🙏
Lived and commercial fished in Kodiak since 1974 and I can tell you that we lost so many young men and women but when the Coast Guard made it---they have saved hundreds of lives...including the 6 crew of the Odyssey, October 1984...my husband and 5 others who thought they were "dead" and began to load the pots with buoys so that their bodies would be found..they thought no one had heard them, no one ansered the may day...and then the C-130 flew "low and slow" the powerful plane that can get close to the ocean, and dropped flares -- and then the helicopter and rescue swimmer showed up-saved 6 men in that one.....Whenever I hear them going over, I run outside to look at the J-Hawk or the C-130...Heros they are...all of them
Imagine you’ve lost hope and despair is all around you , you know a hero when you see them in action , a courageous silhouette amongst a swirling wave a grey spray , then hope becomes real again .
Their crews respectfully are nicknamed REAPERS ,,why ? Cause they collect up lost souls ,like fire crews they the ones who bravely face danger everyday
@Justin credible I think you'll find its probably to do with SOS save our souls ,so it collecting lost souls as reapers collect souls ,dunno why you'd associated you'd think otherwise ,murbid comments shows no pride in people who selflessly go out into the worst storms known to save and preserve life of another
God bless these brave man
These people are my greatest heroes! I am terrified of water AND heights so to even watch this is scary. They jump right in there, and their only agenda is to save people. No politics or ideology. Just doing their utmost to get people to safety. AMAZING PROFESSIONALS! ABSOLUTELY HEROES!
bad to the bone, those coasties...great history..great men and women...dont kid your self, combat ready as well (Vietnam) ...they lost one on the east coast...the storm of the century...he left behind 4 kids and a wife...we will never forget those who give their all...we salute the Coast Guard men and women.
Absolutely amazing, keep going this way heroes, thank for your service.
Oh My God. What a team effort. Salute to all of you! I have goosebumps seeing it as a real scenario.
That feeling when you're one of the last 3 and you see the helicopter flying away.....
The RS most likely stayed on scene with them.
The very best of humanity, no exceptions
I'm so scared of water, i get watery eyed thinking about being in hurricane weather. I'd be crying like a little baby. You guys are braver than i am in that regard.
Awesome job guys, well done. Much respect and thanks. You guys keep the coasts safe for all of us to enjoy !!
Goosebumps.
Tim Rohrbach same all over this is very cool to watch
Rescue swimmers are beasts..but how do they float with those huge brass balls?
True to life...Semper P, brother! And...to this day they will say, "We were just doing our jobs." God speed!
Freakin right brothers!
That’s some major badassery there
What about AW3 Dorner USN HS-11. He swam through sharks to save 4 people who had been adrift for a couple weeks after a hurricane capsized their sailboat. Btw, awesome job to this CG crew.
God Bless You
I will always respect the women and men whose jobs are to risk their lives for us. Salute.
Unsung heros........everyone one of the team....but especially the crew who helo's out to save people.
They embody courage.
How awesome it is that we have an organization dedicated to serving the American public on the water- maximum respect and appreciation!!
just awesome, that's the way dude, this is what it's about!!!!
Could've been citizen of the year! But we ended up with that joke Kaepernick. This is what a real hero looks like.
Sadly they'ed would just accuse him of white privilege and racism and ask why wasn't it a black man that rescued the survivors.
Bro the job of a rescue swimmer is to jump into the water. Do we say now every USCG swimmer gets a courage award?
You said it
Kaepernick does not pretend to be a hero. You are comparing apples and oranges.
Kaepernick is simply making a point that badly needs to be made, about the persistence of racial prejudice in the US as a whole and racial bias by law enforcement in the US. Millions of Americans - not just blacks - support what he is doing. It
Get over yourself.
An entitled athlete complaining about getting benched by pretending to care about racism.
Now that truly is a hero.
App is in and hoping to make this my career. Could not be more excited to take on the challenge.
Did you do it?
@AvalancheCleo unfortunately hurt my knee on an off-base run. Wait time for school was unknown at the time so I switched rates
@@suppaduppa5 Oh I'm sorry to hear that.
These guys are total badasses and heroes.
This man needs the medal of honor or something.
The Medal of Honor is a combat medal. They would have been eligible for the Gold or Silver Lifesaving Medal or the Distinguished Flying Cross.
Thank you for your service...
Thumbs-Up #866 I am, Saturday 14 Apr 2018. That is what I like, professionalism and communication. It is astounding to me that there are 16 dislikes. I would expect zero!
You guys are the real heroes!!!!
U guys are some true hero's
God blesse these men!
The anxiety of having to leave three people out there twice had to be rough. Well done y’all are definitely under appreciated in my opinion.
Simply awesome 👏🏻 thanks brothers 🇺🇸🙌🏻🍻🍻🍻
Balls out bravery!
That's badass I salute you guys way to go good job
Rispetto assoluto per questi uomini coraggiosi🇮🇹💪🖐️🖐️🖐️🖐️
Respect! wow brother nerves of steel and balls of brass your a class act mate.✌❤
hats off 2 u guys u r awesome thank you for your SERVICE
Godbless,Godbless, for this men and women!
Warriors protect...RESPECT !😳🙏
Coast Guard Rescue Swimmers, their selection training has the same fail rate as Navy SEALs.
Thank you all for your service!
Bless you boys!!!
Yeah but you ain’t got nothing on that oil rig guy. He swam out to it with no wetsuit. It was raging in flames and listing over. He”d climbed bare hand up the steel to the first deck. Then after searching the gangways and pushing forth through heavy flames, he’d ripped open a steel door. All bare handed. Saved the oil rig workers. Then as helicopter took off a second floor 10,000 Tonnes pontoon was collapsing so he’d stayed back to brace his body against It’s supports. He’d held it there. Chopper flew off to safety. Clarke Kent his name was.
Honestly I am shocked that the helicopter could handle his giant balls
Simply awesome
Courage
True heroes
Way to go Brother Coastie!
Ballz of solid steel! Semper Paratus! Thank you for your service!
These heroes don’t get enough credit let me tell you
I know they don't the recognition but...these are true heroes.
Crazy job respect too all
Thank you for your Service!
There we have it. Brass balls do float!
Thanks for being a Legend 👌👍
I would just be thinking lowering down into the black sea.."Theres Prob not a Great White Shark right here but there very well could be....."
We’ve got idiots and adrenaline junkies who’d go out to sea on extreme conditions, putting the lives of these brave men when they get into an accident.
Only the best. Awesome.
SOML. ...........great job brother. ........Naval SAR swimmer...surface/ air
Semper Paratus! Great job Coasties!
God bless you guys
True hero
Bravo.
Aye that's pretty good
Aye Coast Guard! Semper Paratus
Yes, whatever they get in pay could not be enough for what they do. Elected politicians are grossly overpaid. Our military and Coast Guard are grossly underpaid. The problem is that Congress votes for their own pay raises.
This must change. It's gone on way too long.
These heroes deserve the highest monetary rewards. What truly GREAT men they are.
Heroes!!!
We’re just not going to mention the 12th survivor? I’m no mathemetologist but 8+3≠12
Always Ready!
heros
Hero's.
The Elite Of Badasses !
HEROES! salute to ya
What are the bumps
looks like he was telling him to press down on the carrier for some reason but idk
I guess to keep the line tight to help the winch?
Young lad here has never had a bump or a line lmao
I think the basket was stuck so he made the helicopter go down so the basket would jolt up and in
What was happening was the Pilot was bumping down the hoist cable via a switch he has on his flt controls up front in the cockpit. The helo hoist system could have experienced a malfunction of some sort (which was mentioned the cable was fraying if that was the first helo) or the Flt Mechanic running the hoist was not able to lower the hoist cable once the basket was inside the helo. He should of had a hand held, remote pendant to operate the hoist unless he was in a situation where he could not use it.
Should make a. Movie about this
Oh, my God. That looks scary.
This is the toughest job on earth. I can't image jumping out of a helicopter with 50-100 foot waves blowing wind and the cold. Alaskan crab fishing has nothing on these guys.
Balls of Steel.
How was the hoist able to maintain its structural integrity with his big brass balls?
There are so many times we see the bad side of human nature. These guys's job is to show the best side at all times.
one more reason for me to avoid oceans, big boat trips etc. Anxiety level is maximum seeing these vids...
