Thank you Leatherman for supporting OCN's amazing work! ❤❤

[@JustMe-vk4fn]

I need some garden gloves, etc. I'll look for Leatherman since they supply OCN

[@Lesloi6227]

Yes I’m going to look them up too as I need a tool for m6 upcoming travels

[@ktinxx]

Normally, I am rather averse to product placement but in this case, I make an exception: So many of OCN's videos have proven the undeniable versatility and indispensability of the Raptor and other Leatherman tools! It even inspired me to buy a Raptor for my son's 16th birthday in June, he will soon finish his training as a school paramedic and this will be his reward. 😊 Great tools, great rescues, great stories! Go OCN!👏👍❣️

[@OceanConservationNamibia]

For the record, Leatherman does not pay us to use their tools, or to post this video, for that matter. Their tools are simply the best for the job we do, and we are very lucky to get the Raptors for free 🙂

[@ktinxx]

@@OceanConservationNamibia I didn't think they were paying you! It's just great to see it work out so ideally for all parties involved, you, the company, and most of all - the seals! 😃👍

[@markthompson9914]

Thank you Leatherman 🙏🏻 U have made many seals healthier and many many people happier ✌️🇬🇧

[@mnicholl93]

As amazing as all the OCN team members are, hats off to @Leatherman for supporting them with perfect tools for the tasks met while rescuing seals. Thank you @Leatherman 🙏🏻 I love that the team's Raptors are personalized; I used to work at sea as an engineer, we also had to have tool boxes in our pockets to save constantly having to run up and down the 4+ floors of the engineroom to fetch tools from the workshop so we all guarded our own Leatherman multi tools, and marked identifying marks on tools like adjustable spanners with marker or paint pens, or a more permanent marking achieved painstakingly with a centre punch and hammer, 1 dot at a time 😁

[@CMarie-bx7ty]

Good for Leatherman for helping w/ your tools. Your team deserves all the help that they can get❤😊❤

Just let’s us see that without those fantastic tools you couldn’t do the great job that you do. The drone footage shows us the thousands of seals you are dealing with! Thanks OCN🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@ZebaKnight]

Thanks, Leatherman, for sending these great guys excellent gear. I hate promotions/ads generally, but I don't mind this one at all. Leatherman earned my attention and admiration by making high quality gear and by getting it to people who use it to do life-saving work.

@@OceanConservationNamibia Thanks. There's nothing like having excellent tools, especially when the work is delicate _and_ dangerous.

[@klwthe3rd]

A rescuer team is only as good as the tools on their belt. God knows all the crap that gets around these seals necks, only the best cutting instruments will do. Thanks Leatherman for your contributing to OCN!

[@kathesofiadarosaschmidt5021]

I will always admire the precious work you do! Congratulations!

Thank you só much for this! It gives us perspective on where you are situated and where you work. The description of your tools are also very interesting. The Leatherman tools really live up to their reputation!! 👏👏👏👏👏💙💙💙💙

[@pjglory3348]

I had always admired Leatherman tools even before I knew about their life-saving use by Team OCN but once I saw the extent of materials they can cut through, my admiration just grew and grew. Thank you Leatherman for supporting these guys in their important humane work!

[@lisa_gg_w]

Thank you for the inside glimpse of the equipment. You all do wonderful work.

[@mlhart3741]

Absolutely outstanding videography and editing (coming from this photographer...) Love the drone shots of the coastline, water-to-shore shots, and visual illustration of all the tool functions. Great that the camera frames you all as superheroes, too - bravo, bravo!

[@karenplath_]

Watching this in 4K as with all the videos, it makes the experience so much better. Hopefully, the upcoming premier on June 8th will also be in 4K.

You and Leatherman all do a great job...

I totally got that. I didn't think you had any paying sponsers. I know it's a delicate situation, but it's too bad Leatherman and Jeep or Range Rover doesn't sponsor you ☹️

[@lisahess339]

I always say, no matter what the job, you have to have the right tools to do the job right. Looks like you've found the right tools with Leatherman. Excellent video by the way!

[@sharonparmelee9633]

You guys are the absolute BEST!!! Your empathy for these beautiful creatures makes me so emotional sometimes. I know you love these seals and it shows!!!! It is heartwarming to listen to you talk with each other and to those sweet (or not so sweet sometimes) seals as you make their lives better. You all need major kudos!!!! It must be beyond frustrating to know that almost all of these injuries could be illuminated if humans took just a little more care with what and where garbage was dumped. THANK YOU ALL!!!! You are all heroes!!!!!

[@HealthyDisrespectforAuthority]

Leatherman.. there really is nothing comparable.

[@lynngreene1993]

What a joy that was to watch!! 4 mins of pure & utter brilliance!!! It felt like I was there with you all. Thanks for sharing your 'secrets' in your secret bags boys!!! Love you all ❤O❤C❤N❤

[@johnlennon335]

I think that sometimes a small tool, similar to a small battery powered soldering iron could melt through, without adding more tension to the entanglement.

[@ncc74656m]

It'd be amazing to have Leatherman make custom OCN variant items to purchase to support you. I've been following since you had a couple thousand subscribers, and it's been awesome to see you grow, and I remember when Leatherman came on board to provide you your tools.

[@mymobile5014]

I have a pair of those Leatherman Raptors, they even cut through steel packing straps! Great video it's nice to see 'behind the scenes'

[@sandralutz-rodriguez2864]

So pumped that Leatherman makes the Raptor tools and is a huge supporter of OCN! Plus made right here down the street from me in Portland, Oregon.

Thank you for doing these series! I have been wondering about that tool. Can't wait to watch the film!

[@lilesosannaflower9956]

That was interesting and good to Know when watching rescues

[@gardengnome132]

I know the tools have evolved but it seems like now you have the very best available for your rescues. It has to make such a tough job less stressful - emotionally and physically - to have the right gear. If the seals only knew, they'd thank you as well!!!
