Fisherman Survives Day at Sea in Crate

http://gma.yahoo.com/blogs/abc-blogs/fisherman-survives-day-sea-crate-133619864--abc-news-topstories.html

From the article:

The boat overturned and the men were thrown into the icy waters with no lifeboat, no life vests and no radios to call for help

These guys are VERY lucky to be alive.

Post a link to the article.

Oops. Link fixed.

amazing the other guy was able to get a suit on in crap conditions.  Both guys are hella lucky

Darwinian!

Hats off to the USCG once again. Seven flights before they found him. I'm glad they've got my back! Those guys rock 

What an incredible story - as a kayaker, I couldn't imagine going out on a boat without life-vests or a radio - and to think these folks fish daily on the waters of S.Alaska - I'm assuming are much more turbulent than our coast here off CA - seems like a small price to pay for a couple of staple items... forget the sharks, I'd be more worried about freezing to death/hypothermia... 'rudolph the red-nosed reindeer' indeed...
