agreed making a good hand as well as finding one is something that todays people just know nothing about. people are lazy, entitled, and fucked now….addicted to drugs and video games, mentally weak and emotionally unstable…..the fundamentals of being a man is going down the fucking tube…. that’s why people don’t understand that compliment. that 10 min clip….that’s the only thing that stuck out to me was when he said “he was a good hand” that’s a rare and special thing now days.

I respect the film crews. They have jobs to record everything, but when the captain's & crew ask them to leave to process tragedy, they comply & give them the space they need.

When I was in the military I did maintenance at locations up to 200 miles away from the base everyday here in the U.S., and we'd sometimes get BOLOs for missing kids in the area we were driving/working in. The worse time was always getting the radio call for the canceling of the BOLO and then waiting for the response when we called back as to the reason why it was canceled (always was the kid was found somehow, but we were essentially asking if the kid was found alive (no matter the condition) or ....otherwise, without asking if the kid was alive over the radio). Usually the kid was okay (sometimes were told going to the hospital for checkout, but okay), but then there were those few other calls...

My father was stationed at Dutch Harbor during the War. He was a flight engineer on a Catalina. Early June of 1942, his Cat was searching for the Japanese Fleet headed for Midway. They received word that Dutch Harbor was getting the duck bombed out of it. The Cats were ordered not to return. They were all on their own. Dad's crew voted to keep searching for the Japanese, even though they knew it meant ditching in the ocean. The very cold North Pacific. As they ran out of fuel, they radioed their final position. Being a sea plane, the Catalina landed on the water. However, it quickly foundered in the rough seas. All made it into a life raft. Three days later, fishermen from Dutch Harbor saved them. They all spent time in the hospital due to hypothermia. But when he got out, Dad got 30 Day's Survivor Leave. He went home and married Mom. What a generation. All thanks to the fishermen from Dutch Harbor. Thanks guys.

God Rest you Todd , I didn’t know you , but your Brothers did , and as long as one of them remember you, you’ll live on … fair winds and following seas brother

Seeing stuff like this in person hits hard an a realization that your putting your life on the line everyday . I've seen it when I worked in alaska it definitely a hard pill to swallow

[@captainconway2236]

that awkward moment when you've watch so much Coast Guard Alaska that you can recognize the Helicoptor Pilot's voice when it plays over the speaker in Deadliest Catch.

I was 31 when this was aired. Just past my prime, was a Marine and they were interviewing people to go with them. At 25 out of the corps I would have, I was in my prime. At 31, a small part of me thought I could but I chickened out from auditioning. I don't regret my choice, but I wasn't in my 20's anymore. Huge respect to these guys! R.I.P. Todd!

31 isn’t out of your prime. You got another got 10-15 years. I’m 30 right now and feel old but I know when I’m 50 I’ll wish I was 30 again.

[@fairycherub1]

I'm fairly new to the show , but it certainly opened my eyes . What these men go through to get crabs etc. How they work in those conditions I will never know. It's a cold , dark thankless job. Big respect to.them all.

[@donnaashcraft7208]

Thank you to ALL you fishermen/women who work hard for us to enjoy seafood. Be safe.

My condolences to Todd's family and friends
