The Pacific Northwest U.S. Coast Guard was diverted from training by a mayday call to save a wanted man in Oregon. CNN’s Jim Acosta talks to Lt. Tripp Haas about how they pulled off the rescue. #CNN #News
See the moment a huge wave pummels this boat during Coast Guard rescue attempt
What a heroic rescue!!
President Trump would have had these Heroes at the State of the Union address. Brandon is going to have the family of a victim for his “we hate the police” State of the Union Address
@barn owl That is a CUCKO BIRD level comment, Owls represent wisdom and knowledge.
@barn owl .the only hero to trump in this video is the one out in the stolen the boat thinking he is about to get a pardon from *FORMER AND NEVER AGAIN DONALD J TRUMPET HIMSELF* ! WELL HE CAN WAIT FOR THE PARDON LIKE ALL THOSE FROM JAN* . *6th. Who will not either. Tell your other favorite criminal to get in line and wait* !

@Todd Dillon …. Lmao 🤣😂
We live in amazing times … a boat capsizes and we get multicamera HD footage within hours
All real boaters love Coasties. They are our security blanket
Glad everything ended up well, but it’s mother nature’s way of saying “you are not going forward with this stolen boat? ” !
They’ll let the guy go with a stern warning.
Bravo Men !!!
Go Coast Guard !!!
it is Great rescue , Coast guards did very great jobs ,, it is unbelievable ,, how they can found him after boat flip over !!! & rescue it ..
Wow! they’re fantastic. Heroes in training.
Go online and watch what these guys do- this was just another day in the office. These Coasties are out there every day, making our waters a safer place. All done, crew! Well done!
This is a normal day on the Columbia River bar in winter. It’s crazy that the boat was out there.
The CG does their water rescue training in Astoria, Oregon because of the reliably horrible conditions. This is an example.
“Reliably horrible” Yeah that’s an extremely apt way of describing it 😂
You nailed the crazy part. A yahoo in a stolen boat who was later turned over to the authorities in Victoria BC Canada as he was wanted in that jurisdiction. No clue, no worries, no care about the property damage to the boat or the risk to human lives put at risk to save his sorry @$$.
A few days before this, the same guy put a dead fish on the porch of the Goonies house in Astoria, covered the security cameras with stickers, then danced around the property. He’s from BC, where there’s a province-wide warrant for him already for criminal harrassment.
I grew up in Alaska and have been in some seriously scary seas. This is my worst nightmare! The Coast Guard are badasses that just don’t get enough credit.
100% I did 6 patrols on a 726 Ohio class boat & there is nothing more intimidating, overpowering, awe inspiring, & humbling than the ocean. On an 18,000 ton boat make you feel like an empty 2-liter bottle getting tossed around.
The fact that the guy they rescued stole this boat-makes the story even more amazing!
The men and women of the Coast Guard put their lives on the line all of the time. They ARE my heroes!
I can’t believe the times my relatives crossed the bar in the 19th and early 20th century. Actually thinking about it, my 2nd grandfather’s brother was a ship’s captain whose craft went down with the loss of him and the crew. I believe it was 1876.
The rescuer dived underwater just before the wave reached him. That’s some training kicking in at the right moment.
Excellent representation by the Coast Guard. 🇺🇲✨⭐ Thanks for your service ☺️
A real Gentleman who gave everyone credit who has involved in this spectacular rescue. Well done Lt. Haas.
As the daughter of a Coastie, this warms the cockles of my heart! Thank You All for your Service. GOD BLESS THE COAST GUARD CREW OF AIR STATION ASTORIA AND CAPE D RESCUE BOAT CREWS.
Well done guys. Thank you for your service.
