If You Don’t Like Heavy Surf Compilations, Don’t Watch the USCG’s Day 6 Rescue Video

Let’s get real though, who doesn’t like heavy surf videos?

I guess technically we should try to stay impartial when it comes to contests, and content for that matter, but the USCG’s Day 6 video in their Top 10 Rescue Videos of 2012 countdown/contest will get you pretty fired up.

In the video, the men and women of Coast Guard Station Coos Bay, Ore., film as they train in the harsh environment of the Pacific Northwest, where battling waves and weather is “just another day at the office”. You can tell they had some fun putting this together, from filming to editing. Check it out…

Day 6: Surf’s Up!

So far, the USCG is more than half way through their Top 10 Rescue Videos of The Year showdown. The video countdown began this past Saturday and will continue through New Year’s Eve with voting open until January 4, 2013. Make sure to watch the videos as they are posted on Compass, Facebook and YouTube, and then cast your vote by ‘liking’ on the Coast Guard’s Facebook page or on the Coast Guard’s YouTube 2012 Videos of the Year playlist.

To recap, here is a look at the videos so far:

Day 1: Mission to Nome

Day 2: Lifeline

Day 3: Downed seaplane

Day 4: Train So Others May Live

Day 5: Advanced Helicopter Rescue School

Day 7, 8, 9, and 10 videos are yet to be disclosed. Do you have any guess as to what they will be?
