DRAMATIC VIDEO: Coast Guard attempts rescue at edge of Niagara Falls

[@kurtwissing7095]

The force it would take to open the door the way he did must have been immense. Not only that, but the pilots and crew chief keeping everything stable with the wash from the falls... This should be in a Coast Guard recruiting commercial. Absolute bad ass.

[@rolllarry]

I read somewhere that he used the current to help push the door, that is why he went for the passenger side. Amazing

[@deborahhughes6923]

This lady did this on purpose??? I just found out and she died??? Oh my gosh! But this human is still a "hero"!!! Amazing human being!!!👌👍👌👍👌

[@SmokinLoon5150]

Outstanding. This goes to show the level of skill and professionalism that the US Coast Guard has and operates by. I'm glad we have them.

[@LifewithChance8800]

Thank you for saving that about the USCG Lots of people think marines have all the balls

[@silntstl]

@@LifewithChance8800 I have had Marines and Army Special Ops tell me we are absolutely insane going out and flying in Hurricanes and other inclement weather conditions.

We visited Niagara falls in 1989 when I was 13. I found the whole area to be very unsettling. This video sums it up perfectly

[@Youraveragegamer_97]

try living there, its a nightmare dealing with annoying tourists constantly

[@irishlass9999]

I've lived here all of my life. The Falls are invigorating, refreshing, peaceful, and spiritual. One has to respect nature, be cautious, and careful while enjoying the beauty. Someone who drives into the rapids is doing so out of despair.

[@TheMusicHeals.kjhjhhg]

Then maybe you should never leave home the world is to scary.

[@frederickduff5335]

So did I find the "whole area unsettling" and now I know why. Thank you.

[@irishlass9999]

To rpm773: People who visit Niagara Falls are, indeed, shocked by the close proximity of danger. People who live here are not overwhelmed by it. When I visited the Grand Canyon in 1976, I was afraid of falling into it. I'm not tempting fate by hanging over guard rails or climb over fences to walk on slipery slopes like some people do.

[@deborahhughes6923]

WOW!!! These are our real "HEROS"! That is wonderful!!! What a job!👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@Youngstunna508]

The amount of balls these guys have is beyond crazy !! You got to be in real good ass shape to even attempt to be in the Coast guards !! They always had my Respect !

[@TickleSalty]

These Coast Guard rescue teams have nerves of steel. They’re the only ones who could have pulled off such a rescue.

[@MarylandRailfanner-w2t]

Such a powerful helicopter

I Love The United States of America Coast Guard Most Honorable herself!

That one dude laughing bothers me

[@rodonis88]

Why?

[@TheMusicHeals.kjhjhhg]

he is american. enough said

[@JimNagel1]

So is the guy that got the call & flew from Michigan just to be dropped into that scary as hell water with a rope and an axe, crawl into the submerged vehicle & strap a dead body to himself so her family could bury her. Pretty sure they have to factor in the weight of that guys stones when loading that chopper.

[@poopsock7493]

Some of these people in the comment section bother me more so.

[@dakotajaymes8580]

@@TheMusicHeals.kjhjhhg Absolutely correct because EVERYONE in the world know that only Americans visit Niagara Falls from the 'merican side, and Canadians and tourists ONLY visit the Canadian side of Niagara Falls. Thank you for your astute observation and commentary, genius!! 🙄

[@Jay_Force_One]

Ok. So how the fuck did someone get their car out there? The stupidity of humans never ceases to amaze me. How people get in certain situations is beyond me.

[@greg33770]

how the heck did a car get in that far to begin with ?

[@UFC_Buffalo]

@@robmuir2361 easy if u go off the road, over some grass, and then over the boulders that line the shore lol. They had to try to get in there lol.

[@greg33770]

@@robmuir2361 thanks Rob, i didn't realize you can easily drive your car into the water anywhere around there, i would assume there would be fencing.

[@george-cann]

probably drove there

[@sadeaton]

He forgot his barrel.

[@chitownbangin]

@@robmuir2361 I'm looking at the map and I don't see any easily reached area from even the pedestrian walk bridge. Unless she drove in intentionally, I don't understand how she got in the river.

[@ivanstayner8818]

Its probably SOOOO fuckin cold. Omg.

[@jbrob1750]

Sir, you cannot park there.

[@dabs2thebrain]

someone needs to tell them they cant park there

[@shirleyjhaney1041]

I wonder if the energy the falls generate (?) could be harnessed

[@BrianCraig-qn7qf]

Go Coast Guard 👍

[@hughmacdonald3595]

Skip,. No resolution.

[@sadeaton]

Did this dope not know you are supposed to go over the falls in a barrel and not a car?

[@fazer8201]

how in the hell did a car end up in there

[@lyniereese1150]

that is what I would like to know!

[@timothyj1966]

GEESH!

Well that was a waist of 58 seconds of my life

[@jonesjones7057]

Exactly. Let's cut the video before anyone sees the rescue!

[@Tairqthephotoman2024]

I didn't now we had a undercover police

Wouldn’t it be easier to strap the rescuer to the fence by a cable and wade in?

apparently not

[@joshuabrege4811]

@@george-cann you realize how fast and powerful that current is? No way they could swim there 🤦‍♂️

The answer: absolutely not a hope in hell. The force of the water before it goes over the falls is unbelievable.
