life isn't fair

I used to fart in the bathtub, let the bubbles sink my toy boat ⛵️🌀

Of course it's fair. It's a very tough and risky way to earn a living but everyone who goes out there knows that and they've still made the decision to go. They don't have to go through this; they've all freely made the decision that this is what they want to do and have accepted the consequences, conditions, and risks that come with it.

I've been caught in a very bad storm before. I can guarantee you. It's the most scared I've ever been in my life. The power of the ocean is ridiculous. 18 ft fishing vessel. They basically had to pry my hands off the wheel and throttle. I was responsible for all 4 souls on board. Are transome was getting swamped and we were taking on water rapidly. In the rips off Cape May, NJ. It is the scariest thing I've ever experienced. Your dad is not lying.

That’s BS some people just love to do it the fact that you can provide food by doing it is just a bonus

Yeah being dead doesn't do that. This was just poor judgment.

Find a job doing what you love to do, and you'll never work a day in your life. 🌬🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

Read the book. These guys weren’t just “putting food on their family’s table”. Some of them were raking in $20k a month. And blowing through thousands of dollars at night at the bar. You would risk a couple of waves too.

@Bola Oladapo what is wrong with you

@@derpnick7253 what? All he said was the crew was brave and that the film is based on a true event that happened.

@@slip_the_knot1586 the comment was obviously towards someone else who deleted their comment

@@Creative_Melly oh

and foolish in the movie

I thought it was just a remnant of a hurricane such as a tropical storm or tropical depression

@@matthewsisdecent957 nope. The hurricane slammed into the incoming system and merged.

@@boyscouts83712 man that would be like the perfect storm

@@justthisguy1948 and it really happened with the Andrea Gail. The movie is based off of witness accounts leading up to the last time anyone ever had radio contact with them. After that....🤷‍♂️. The only evidence that the boat was lost and/or sunk was the few surviving pieces of wreckage like a life jacket, (out-of-date)SOS beacon and a few other things were found washed up on Nantucket Island

@@justthisguy1948 also, it happened again in real life when hurricane 🌀 sandy slammed into the New York City/New Jersey area

May I ask you where can I see this movie

@@renaewood8789 you can probably buy it online or rent it .. the perfect storm.

@@casmckay8034 do you know where I can buy it

@@renaewood8789 depends because I'm from the Netherlands I bought it in a DVD store but I'm sure you can buy it in one of the bigger internet stores .

I'll watch you

Rey Ray well that’s creepy

@@khloeconlin it's romantic

@@reyray5071 Sick Fuck.

@@reyray5071 Pervert.

That was exactly where they were headed, even though the final radio contact didn't happen like this in real life

I have the upmost respect for sea fishermen. I know how hard it is to lose your loved ones. Your job is not easy. I love the ocean but I know she's a fickle bitch. One moment she's all calm and happy, then she can become heartless and cruel.

Had to be a rogue wave. If the Andrea Gail had been through similar conditions before, someone must have really gone wrong that night.

Very unlikely she was capsized. Billy would've kept her pointed into oncoming weather. Far more likely they endured a beating all night and were put down by a 100' rogue around midnight. There were tons of them

​@@mgmg116i know I'm late but I think when there was a period of time when there was 100 foot waves The Andrea Gail was climbing a wave and the wave creasted like in the movie but they aren't capsized but the wave just swamped the Andrea Gail and damaged her she went underwater popped up and the waves just sank her when she was damaged

We don’t know the real story of why they tried going through. A broken ice machine is one theory.

The reality was that Andrea Gail was 3 days on its steam home due to ice problems not as the movie depicts Captain Tyne giving the crew to go through or wait it out .....We know that Captain Tyne on October 26 to 27 plotted a course back home but the storm hit on the 28th. Poor guys didn't stand a chance

Pretty sure those guys were super far out in the ocean, plus the storm was so bad that even rescue people died trying to save people out in that storm. They sure as heck aren’t going to go to extra trouble to retrieve some dead fish.

They were at the Flemish Cap. Way beyond the usual fishing grounds. It’s rare to ever go out that far, even though the Cap is still part of the fishing grounds. Most sword fisherman stay relatively close within the Grand Banks, but the sword fish have migrated to the Flemish Cap by this time.

An ice machine aint easy to fix.

Do you think they could've even made it at that point trying to go back?

@@Vikingr4Jesus5919 no

@@christophersanchez4496 didn't think so either.

As someone who lived in gloucester at that time, it's easy to say that, but no one here knew how bad that storm really was.... Billy didn't know.... he wouldn't have put his men, and the coast guard in danger by going out there if he had any idea.

@@FallenAngelCorp Wow that's interesting. I have heard a lot of great stories about what kind of man Billy Tyne was. Did you ever meet him?

@@davidkraft314 No, I never did myself, my father did. He said he was a good man.

Billy was known as one of the saltiest sword board caps in the area. He wasn’t some greenhorn, the storms collided and it became a weather anomaly. They were trying to feed their families man.

@@reboundrides8132 And so were the Coast Guard who risked getting killed.

@@starpilot1983 It's all made up. No one knows exactly what happened.

dansma32 I fished in Alaska was no where near as bad as that storm my uncles a skipper on a crab fishing vessel seen a power greater than god plus had a rogue Wave side swipe the boat

I get what you mean. Another idea would have been to just stay where they were and try to help others by connecting with the Coast Guard.

SgtBaker16 At least they'd be alive.

Towards the end of the movie they did turn around

Yeah, "turned around" as in sailing south into the fury of the merged systems and right into THE EYE OF THE STORM!

Very good !!! I read the book before they made it a movie. Scary!!!

Sadly, these were real men who lost their lives. If you ever get a chance to visit Gloucester,MA go to city hall and read the names of the lost. The wall is large, and it's full.

What?

I am sure they were in real life. This is Hollywood

​@@datura1983 the only people who'd be out in that weather are the ones who were crazy enough to not care.

@@wicklash9065nah some people are forced to some deck hands have to go out for money or captain will fire them i had to fish hurcian Ian

The real life story makes it more clear. The storm formed overtop of them without much warning when they were already halfway home after the trip. And you can't drive in a storm. Your boat is going to go wherever the wind and waves push it. All you can do is control which direction the boat points.

The Perfect Storm

yes np

@@zoumhs999 what does np mean

@@zoumhs999 thankyou

Yes, they were headed through the storm because they had a large catch. If they had waited it out, their catch would have spoiled and they’d have made no money. Unfortunately, the Andrea Gail didn’t realize the severity of the storm and thought they could go through it.

The catch would have spoiled because their ice machine stopped functioning.

They were faced with a choice: stay where they were and ride out the weather, only to lose thousands if not hundreds of thousands of dollars in fresh caught swordfish and have to throw it overboard and to the birds thus going back broke. Or risk it all with the weather and arrive in port for a major payday. Unfortunately, as they were sailing back, the weather got worse and worse than they were gone. Now their final resting place is at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean among the countless others that have lost their lives to the same career or other things like world wars and etc

In the movie they knew that they were sailing into a really bad storm. They didn't know 3 weather systems were going to merge. In real life they were on day 3 of they're trip home when one of the storms basically formed on top of them. As another captain said, whatever happened to them happened quickly because Tyne never gave any indication that they were in any trouble. Just that bad weather was coming.

The Perfect Storm

Pretty accurate analysis, but the boat most likely lasted for a few hours before being overwhelmed by the storm, much longer than a few minutes

*That’s not how storms work because you can literally see them from a distance*

*It LITERALLY had to be a conversation about driving through that big grayish blackish lightning thundering cloud*

@@Overlookedtooverbooked Storms can absolutely form from nowhere, but beside the point in this instance; The movie plays this up for drama. The boat was already halfway home when they got first warning of bad weather (along with all other vessels off the East Coast) via weatherfax from NOAA. The initial forecast was for mild weather, a bit of wind and some chop. By the time the updated forecast came out, predicting serious and potentially threatening conditions (still under-reporting the conditions the storm would actually end up producing) it was dawn the next day, way too late to turn around - the storm would catch them no matter what at this point.

@@Overlookedtooverbooked damn you just got proven wrong

Maybe in our grandkids life time. The area to search is huge. From the flemish cap to Nantucket Island. The seafloor in that area is huge and deep...

@@boyscouts83712 They were just 130 nautical miles East of Sable and likely didn't make it much further than that, considering all the wreckage from the boat (and there wasn't much) washed up on Sable's shores. That puts them within a 100nm radius. The boat is likely at the bottom of The Gully

Part of the system they used to help.make the radio work

Blew away the antennas and destroyed the crow's nest railing and platform. Probably took their anemometer too (windspeed gauge)

The waves were so big it wouldnt have mattered

The Grand Banks in late October/early November are freezing cold. Plus, 90ft waves; gale force winds and a rogue wave to boot. Survival suits only last a few hours before they wear out. Life jackets make you bob up and down in the water and with the size of the waves, you'd just swallow a lot of crap ton of seawater and drown. Also, Great Whites and Mako's feast on floating bodies.

because it IS.

@@skyguy1988 I prefer a pool :-) 👍

In real life, the storm formed over the Andrea Gail as they were heading home, They didn't knowingly sail into this deadly storm.

And by turning southeast, you're sailing into the teeth of a category 4/5 Hurricane with and equally destructive nor'easter right behind u

What is fun gee

It's important to note that we literally have no idea what happened to them in actuality, and all this action stuff was made up for the film. All we know is the boat disappeared, and only a few oil drums were ever found.

These fisherman weren't "asking for it" they were out there trying to make a living and nature screwed them over

“Toxic Masculinity” just a made up term by beta males wishing they were female.

Yes, because FOOD isn't necessary...
