My friend Adam who runs the cdiver.net website – a online community for the world’s commercial divers – was telling me the dangerous working conditions of commercial divers. Of course, in the most recent season of “Deadliest Catch” we saw this first hand when Captain Keith Colburn of the F/V Wizard took a shot to the head when trying to inspect his ship’s haul. In this video above, the diver quickly looses part of his thumb on a dive job. Yikes! His boss on the radio calmy tells him not too worry about the blood because there aren’t any large fish around. Lots of ways to get hurt! Thanks to all the commercial divers around the world working on oil rigs, ships, underwater pipes, etc. – stay safe!

Ever wonder if Captain Phil gets scared out there on the Bering Sea? Do the guys ever get sea-sick? How about falling overboard? Check out this YouTube video from an appearance on Larry King Live back on April 11, 2009 and get the inside scoop. Captain Phil, Josh and Jake Harris talk about why it seems that most fans of Deadliest Catch are not fisherman, the scariest moments in the life of Alaskan Fisherman and some of the reasons they do what they do! See clips from last season and the Cornelia Marie crew on Larry King Live. What do you think makes the Deadliest Catch such a popular show, especially among people who aren’t a part of the fishing industry? If you could ask Captain Phil, Josh or Jake one question – what would it be?
