It’s not clear where or when this took place, but as you can see in the GIF, it happened in record time. Whatever this fisherman was suffering from was treated quicker than it could ever have been expected from the onset — all because of the incredible skill and professionalism of the United States Coast Guard.

Seriously, take in every aspect of this visual account. The way the chopper pilot keeps the aircraft steady over a boat going pretty darn fast. The USCG member in the boat itself sending off the fisherman in a secure basket, as it rises with no wasted motion over the open ocean and into the safe haven of the orange helicopter.

It’s quite the operation, all dependent on teamwork and military members that are damn good at their job.

Oh, and the Coast Guard? Yeah they do these kind of rescues ALL THE TIME.
