Part One: Coast Guard Rescue Gone Wrong - Michael Odom's Ocean Standoff | E105

In this gripping episode, set against the unforgiving backdrop of the stormy sea on January 23rd, 1995, Coast Guard rescuer Michael Odom faces the ultimate test of skill and courage.

As Coast Guard Helicopter 6019 hovers above the turbulent waves, Odom meticulously prepares for the perilous mission ahead - the rescue of survivors from the battered sailboat Mirage.

But just as Odom braces himself for the daunting task of plucking sailors from the angry sea, a sudden twist throws the mission into chaos. The captain of the Mirage refuses to abandon ship, defying the Coast Guard's orders and jeopardizing the lives of everyone onboard.

Caught in a tense standoff, Odom and his fellow rescuers face a heart-wrenching dilemma: save all or risk losing them all. But before a decision can be reached, a desperate sailor takes matters into their own hands, plunging into the icy waters below.

Now, with time running out and the storm raging fiercer than ever, Odom must summon every ounce of strength and determination to save not just the stranded sailors, but also himself. Battling exhaustion and the relentless fury of the elements, he knows that the odds are stacked against him.

Will Odom defy the odds and emerge victorious in his race against time? Or will the stormy sea claim yet another victim in its unforgiving embrace? Find out in this pulse-pounding episode of high-stakes rescue on the high seas.

30) Todd Endris and the Great White Shark

Twenty four year old Todd Endris was doing what he loved to do, surf. It was a late August morning in Monterey Bay in 2007. He pulled on his wet suit and paddled into the water, noting a pod of dolphins swimming around. Within a few minutes of surfing he felt an immense force that hit the bottom of his board, catapulting him 15 feet into the air, and then into the water. He knew this could only mean one thing..he was being attacked by a shark. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
