Expand description
This is the unforgettable true adventure of an astonishing rescue at sea and of the men who endured a record breaking 16-hour non-stop helicopter ride through bone-jarring bad weather on a mission on the ragged edge of impossibility. It is a story of a handful of heroes without peer who were willing to brave a maelstrom and schools of killer sharks, risking their own lives "so that others may live".
