Forty-foot waves, freezing temperatures, swinging 700-pound crab pots, a nearly 100 percent injury rate ... but also the chance to earn enough money for a family to live on for a year or more, for just a few days' work. Welcome to one of the world's deadliest jobs — that of the Alaskan crab fisherman — and witness it firsthand in the 10-part Discovery Channel series

Check out the trailer here http://dsc.discovery.com/fansites/deadliestcatch/splash.html

Really suprised how kick ass this show is.....

Yeah I saw it once. The episode I saw had like a fishing boat sink and some dude fly off into the water to die. Then it was like, our Budwieser fish count is ZERO accross the board so far.

:lol

I found that real funny for some reason.

Yes! I saw like a marathon last week... im hooked! the crab makes you hungry too. You cant get good seafood anywhere in the midwest. argh!

This show is totally fucked up dude. We're one step closer to The Running Man. That one episode where the ship went down and six people died. . . I mean, does The Discovery Channel actually send camera crews out on to these ships? Jesus man - that can't be any safer than the job these poor bastards are doing.

Yeah, this is some very hardcore shit and gives me a greater appreciation for the risks these guys take. Just so I can go to the Chinese restaraunt and feel sorry for the crabs in the fish tanks waiting to be eaten.

Snow Crabs are the shit

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

Oh hell dude, I'll eat them just the same. I just have this strange affinity for seafood - errr. . . sea creatures. They just f'ing look so damn cool; yet they're so damned delicious. :lol

I love this show. It's all about Sig Hansen's boat, the Northwestern. Those Norwegian guys kick ass.

I have been watching it since it started. Too bad next week is the last episode, I was getting addicted to this show.

Discovery starts a firefighting show to take it's place.

dude this show is awesome, i just started watching it this week...

its crazy how much they have to go through in order to capitalize, but many id take $10000 for about 4 days of fishing...
