Yeah, like are we being tricked? Yeah. Like what's happening? Are we hallucinating?

By the time Thielen made it to the raft, two of the other men had already climbed in, but there was still no sign of his friend, Robert Terry. Thielen looked back and spotted Robert Terry a few yards behind him. And he said he had stopped swimming and was clutching his chest. And he said his face was twisted in like a grimace.

And Thielen thought Terry might be having a heart attack. And then all of a sudden, he just disappeared completely under the water. Did a fucking shark get him? And he said a few seconds later, he appeared again above the water. And he was now swimming towards the raft. And Thielen called out to him, encouraging him, being like, you're going to make it. You're going to make it. Come on.

and even got into the water to help him. And he had just lowered himself into the water when he turned to see a large white tip bolt out of the water and grab Robert Terry, dragging him under the water. And he was gone.

He was that close to rescue. That motherfucking shark. That shark is a fucking asshole. I hate that shark. I love sharks. I do too. That shark's a fucking asshole. That particular shark, I hate. Because that was a bitch move. That was like that to me. Are you kidding? You've had a feast for days, you piece of shit. And he was that. And he was so close. And for his friend to watch that.

For Thielen to watch his friend and be encouraging him, being like, come on, we're almost there and getting into the water to help him. And then watch him be dragged under by a shark. And you can't even like you can't even properly celebrate that you're being rescued because you just watched your friend get eaten. And it's like how do you ever get over that?

And Thielen said like he said that he was in complete shock and he just sat in the water for a second in complete shock. I bet. Like couldn't overcome it. And he's like and obviously I had to and I managed to get myself back on the raft. Yeah before another shark. He's like I can't let myself get dragged under. Now, Mark's plane was just the first of many to arrive at the scene.

For the rest of the afternoon, a steady stream of planes flew overhead, dropping rafts, life jackets, other supplies, just making sure they could survive in the time before they could get them out. Knowing the rescue ships were still a ways off and that time was of the essence, Mark's made a decision that would likely save a ton of people's lives.

He decided, so to land a seaplane of that size on the open ocean and in such a small window to be like accessible to stranded survivors was very, very risky. It's just not something you can do. But Marx decided to, that he was going to do it, that he was going to try it.

So he descended to the lowest point he could and put the plane into a power stall, which is an aviation phenomenon that causes the plane to lose lift. And he brought the plane down on the surface of the ocean with three hard bounces. And he said to his astonishment, the plane suffered only minor damage.
