00:00Antarctica. The conflict between the environmental organization Sea Shepherd and the Japanese whalers is escalating.
00:14The conservation crew consists entirely of volunteers and is led by Captain Paul Watson.
00:21They fight against a group of Japanese whalers hunting in the Southern Ocean.
00:26The Sea Shepherds believe that they are violating the international ban on whaling.
00:34The whalers, in turn, claim that they are only collecting samples for scientific purposes.
00:40Both parties feel they are in the right and push themselves to the limit, even if it could cost them their lives.
00:50Last time at Whale Wars.
00:52No sign of the Nishimaru. He has no idea.
00:56We lost the Nishim. We couldn't have made a bigger mistake.
01:04We're getting company.
01:06Is this the Shonan?
01:09This is the most brutal ship in the whaling fleet.
01:14This way we'll never get to the Nishimaru.
01:16The mission of the Bob Barker has changed.
01:24Paul asks us to go to Brigitte Bardot so she can refuel.
01:31We are driving straight into a violent storm.
01:34We don’t find that so exciting either.
01:40Like a roller coaster.
01:46The outrigger is broken. We have to get out of here.
01:54Put on your survival suits.
01:55Is water coming in?
02:04Yes, but you can't get out now.
02:07All the hard work.
02:10The Brigitte Bardot was hit by a huge wave.
02:14The left boom is broken and the ship is in danger of sinking.
02:17Intense. This isn't good news.
02:23A fiberglass boat is like a plastic box.
02:27Without swimmers we could quickly capsize.
02:32Steve Irwin has to come here.
02:36Where is the satellite phone?
02:45Is it in your cabin, Jono?
02:47Where is the damn thing?
02:52Calm down.
02:54Yes, but I have to get out of there.
02:56I want to see how much damage is done and how much water is coming in.
03:00If you open the hatch, everything here is under water.
03:04No reception.
03:07We have to get out of there.
03:10Wait, I'll come with you.
03:14The crew expects the worst.
03:16If the float were to break off completely, the ship would sink in a few minutes.
03:25Jillian, is everything okay?
03:28Your mood affects everyone else too.
03:30Yes, I'm doing my best.
03:38Now it's about survival.
03:40The adrenaline rushes to your head, but you have to solve the problem and stay calm.
03:44Otherwise you are completely paralyzed.
03:46Has everyone calmed down?
03:50Jillian is fine, and so are the others.
03:53My friend Jo is also on the ship.
03:56I had to take care of her.
04:10The situation is serious.
04:13In such a situation you think of your parents, your children, your good friends.
04:19A lot of things go through your head.
04:23We have to secure the swimmer with a rope.
04:30Calm down.
04:34It has broken and could fall off at any moment.
04:36Then you realize that we are sitting in a very small boat and the sea doesn't want us here at all.
04:48We can throw from here.
04:51No, I'm going out.
04:56With waves six meters high, this is severe for any ship.
05:02But it's extremely slippery here and that's pretty crazy.
05:06How well can you throw a lasso?
05:14Bex Strausner tries to secure the swimmer with a mooring line.
05:23Hold on tight and don't go overboard.
05:34Almost.
05:36Done, great.
05:40Now back again.
05:44You do something and have no idea what will happen next.
05:50One more blow and the ship sinks.
05:56You can see the waves that are bigger than the entire ship.
06:00You never want to experience something like that.
06:02I really don't want to be anymore.
06:04The world is a vampire.
06:17What does the ship mean.
06:18That's what the ship is like.
06:19Are you ready, the ship.
06:19That's what barley is like.
06:20Subtitling by ZDF, 2020
06:50The crew of the Brigitte Bardot is in great danger.
07:09And she still has no contact with the other two Sea Shepherd ships.
07:15Nobody picks up.
07:17What is the number?
07:20The crew of the Brigitte Bardot has really hit it off. You have to come see us.
07:38Where are you?
07:3951 degrees, 16 minutes. What longitude?
07:4899 degrees.
07:50Peter, we have bad news.
08:03Our port side boom is broken and is hanging by only a few fibers.
08:09Should we come to you immediately or can you wait for the Steve Irwin?
08:13We need help as soon as possible. Otherwise the crack will extend into the boat.
08:2199 degrees, 21 minutes.
08:24Simon, the latitude. You give me a different position every time. Please repeat slowly.
08:32Drex phone.
08:33So, the Brigitte Bardot was hit by a wave. Now her portside float has broken.
08:43What is their exact position?
08:45I was only thinking about the crew. I personally selected these people. That's why I feel responsible for them.
08:54They're close friends. And so the Bob Barker needs to get there as soon as possible.
08:58The Bob Barker is 150 kilometers away from the Brigitte Bardot.
09:10At full speed, the crew could reach the trimaran in nine hours.
09:15If the weather doesn't spoil their plans.
09:22We could definitely lose Brigitte Bardot.
09:25When the swimmer breaks off and they only have one left, things get really serious.
09:36Sid, are you there?
09:40Paul, the Bardot has a leak. We're supposed to meet her at these coordinates.
09:51What does leak mean?
09:54The left float is filling with water.
09:58We immediately thought about how we could get to Brigitte Bardot as quickly as possible.
10:02The question was, is everyone on board okay? And how quickly can we get to them?
10:15461 kilometers.
10:18Both engines?
10:20Yes.
10:22Is the schooner still behind us?
10:24The Steve Irwin is located almost 500 kilometers northeast of the Brigitte Bardot.
10:33And she is still being pursued by the Shonan Maru II, which is relaying her position to the whaling fleet.
10:40If the Steve Irwin also goes to the damaged trimaran, the whalers know the position of all three Sea Shepherd ships.
10:47No idea what the Shonan Maru II will do, but they're relaying our position to the factory ship so we don't find it.
11:03Since the Bob Barker is in the middle of a storm, Paul Watson decides to take on the rescue operation himself.
11:10The Brigitte Bardot is battling six- to seven-meter-high waves. One of them has damaged the float.
11:20It's only connected to a few fiber optic cables.
11:24They fear that it could collapse overnight.
11:31I know what it feels like to be in a small boat on the high seas.
11:36You stare into the black night and know that it will take hours until help arrives.
11:43That's pretty bad.
11:49The ship is still stuck in the storm. It must be terrible for the crew.
11:59Must be bad. Some of them are good friends of mine.
12:03They are now sailing on the sea in a wrecked small ship.
12:08I hope we get there before anything bad happens.
12:25The jump runs across the entire top of the float.
12:30We tried to secure it with some ropes, but we're afraid it might break off completely.
12:38He's just hanging on the ropes.
12:44Maybe it will last a few more days, but maybe only a few hours.
12:47Depends on how much stress it is put under.
12:50The Steve Irwin and the Bob Barker must come here.
12:58It will be a sad day when we have to leave the ship to its fate.
13:06The Brigitte Bardot is designed in such a way that it relies on the two outriggers to float stably in the water.
13:12If the damaged float detaches completely from the trimmer, it is very likely that it will sink in a very short time.
13:24Will the ship still float if it breaks off completely?
13:29We don't know, that's why you have to come here.
13:32So really urgent.
13:33The crew of the Brigitte Bardot fears that the next big wave could sink the ship.
13:56Then let's discuss it. Shall I?
14:00I'll do it.
14:03We had to prepare everything for an emergency so that we could evacuate the ship as quickly as possible if it sank.
14:16We're obviously in the shit.
14:19If the float breaks off and the ship becomes unstable, we all have to get into the life raft.
14:26Think about what you absolutely need to take with you in this case.
14:29Even in calm seas, climbing into a life raft is life-threatening.
14:39In the Southern Ocean you have to take into account the wind, the icy temperatures and the rough seas.
14:45In the worst case scenario, the boat sinks and we have to get into the life raft. That's a very serious situation.
14:50Simon, anything else?
14:56I feel completely empty.
15:02Perhaps this is the end of our mission. But first, it's important to get to shore safely.
15:06At first it was a real shock that the ship was actually so badly damaged.
15:25Especially in the Southern Ocean, that's quite frightening.
15:30But we have to put the fear aside now and just function.
15:35Even if it isn't easy.
15:41You feel very lonely.
15:52Let's see where the Steve Irwin is now.
15:56Emo, answer the phone.
15:57How long does it take you to get there?
16:06We're 450 kilometers away. Even at 14 knots, it'll take us 20 hours.
16:14We are only 120 kilometers away.
16:19It takes us eight or nine hours to get to Brigitte Bardot.
16:24If something happens, they'll be in a life raft, which obviously wouldn't be good.
16:31Alex Cornelison is aware that the crew would not last long in a life raft in this environment.
16:38Therefore, he decides to drive directly through the storm area.
16:42The Bob Barker is a good 300 kilometers closer than the Steve Irwin.
16:45But there is a huge storm between them and Brigitte Bardot.
16:50What is your position?
17:16You are here.
17:17And they can't change course?
17:23No, they have to protect their ship as much as possible.
17:28The Bob Barker is now in the middle of a storm with 15-meter-high waves.
17:33Wow, damn.
17:36I hope the situation eases soon, otherwise it will take too long.
17:41We were tossed around like dolls by the waves.
17:57It's intense to know that our friends are in the same storm in a much smaller ship.
18:01If the Brigitte Bardot loses its float, the ship can no longer be steered and the crew's lives are in danger.
18:19That's why we need to get to them as quickly as possible.
18:21We cannot stay on course.
18:35No chance.
18:38Let's hope for the best.
18:40The Bob Barker is fighting its way through the storm, but the Brigitte Bardot is still over 100 kilometers away.
19:00We crashed head-on through nine-meter-high waves all night.
19:20Our deck beam cannot withstand the sea.
19:22Due to the huge waves, the Bob Barker has to reduce its speed from 12 to 5 knots.
19:34So we need 18 hours.
19:38That's nine hours longer than originally planned.
19:45I'll call Jono.
19:52Hey Jono, you said the float will last another three or four hours.
20:08Unfortunately, we won't be able to do it in time.
20:13There may be other ships nearby that can get there faster.
20:16The Bob is still stuck in the storm and apparently hasn't made much progress since our last phone call.
20:42A sinking ship in the middle of the ocean is a well-known sailor's story.
20:46You never think that something like this actually happens.
20:55The captain of the Brigitte Bardot, Jonathan Renneckel, tries to find out if there are other ships nearby that could come to the crew's aid.
21:05Hi Mike, this is Jonathan, the captain of the Sea Shepherd ship Brigitte Bardot.
21:11Our boom was badly damaged by a wave.
21:22Can you tell us if there are other ships nearby?
21:24They only receive the Bob Barker.
21:45The crew of the Bardot depends on the help of their colleagues.
22:05At the moment she can only wait.
22:07When it comes to life and death, hours turn into days.
22:17It will feel like a lifetime until the Bob Barker arrives.
22:29Everything okay, Jillian?
22:38Sorry, I'm just...
22:40It's okay.
22:41It's okay.
22:41It's okay.
22:43Jillian, it's gonna be alright.
22:44Everything will be fine.
22:47I can't do this.
22:48Hopefully we'll have done it soon.
23:07It's getting worse and worse.
23:08It's getting worse and worse.
23:10The next 20 hours will be tough.
23:25My concern is that one of the crew members will be injured or even die.
23:40The gap is getting bigger and bigger.
23:51We don't know what happens if the float breaks off.
23:54And the Bob Barker is the ship that can get to us the fastest.
23:59I'll talk to Paul and get back to you.
24:04The jump goes over the entire swimmer.
24:07Jono thinks he'll drop in the next two or three hours.
24:10Where is the Bob Barker?
24:19They are not making much progress because they have to navigate around the storm.
24:23How far away are we?
24:25About 390 kilometers.
24:30If that thing breaks off, the boat will still float, right?
24:35I don't know.
24:40You wonder whether the Brigitte Bardot could sink and have terrible images in your head of trying to rescue it with rubber dinghies in the middle of the night.
24:49I just hope we get there before it's too late.
25:06Maybe we hit a piece of ice.
25:10Seriously?
25:11That this comes from the wave?
25:13Now I feel like it was my fault.
25:17No.
25:20It was a monster wave.
25:24I'll set sail with you anytime.
25:28And so would everyone else on board.
25:32As a captain you have a great responsibility.
25:35And you only notice it when something goes wrong.
25:40We know you received the order.
25:45I have the final say.
25:46And now it's about saving the crew and the boat.
25:49You feel a huge burden on your shoulders.
25:51Jono, it wasn't your fault.
26:04I'll give you that in black and white.
26:09The ship was not built for this environment.
26:15Jono was captain of the ship for two and a half years before Sea Shepherd bought it.
26:19That is why the situation is particularly difficult for him.
26:23Right now everyone is just thinking, will we make it?
26:40It has become dark and the crew knows that help will not arrive until the next morning at the earliest.
26:49We should return to our normal shifts.
26:54Everyone has to sleep.
26:57It's not easy right now, but everyone just needs to lie down for a while.
27:04Six-hour shifts?
27:06The most important thing is to keep an eye on the swimmer.
27:12It's already quite dark and you can't see it from here.
27:16But we will check it with a flashlight every ten minutes.
27:20We need to make sure the boom is still intact.
27:24The situation is serious and getting worse.
27:33Today the gap has grown by almost 20 centimeters.
27:40If it looks like it's going to break off, please get rid of me.
27:44The waves have not diminished.
27:53We had sleepless nights and there was always another bang.
28:00You can't sleep or go to the toilet in peace.
28:04This is really exhausting.
28:05A mega wave keeps coming and you can hear it crashing onto the boat.
28:27You won't be able to sleep a wink all night.
28:35I told some crew members that they needed to sleep.
28:40If everyone stays awake, we'll all be dead tired at the same time.
28:46But either way, this will be the longest day of my life.
28:57The sun rises over the Southern Ocean.
29:00The Steve Irwin sailed through the night to help the crew on the Brigitte Bardot.
29:18I can't reach her.
29:23You last spoke to your colleagues ten hours ago.
29:30The satellite phone is also dead.
29:37The Bob Barker is approaching the last known coordinates of Brigitte Bardot.
29:43We have to give Bardot our position.
29:51The crew of the Bob Barker is also unable to reach their colleagues on the Brigitte Bardot.
29:55Jono said the float is only loosely hanging from the ship.
30:01I'm really worried about the crew on board.
30:10No answer.
30:12Peter, this is Sid.
30:22Hey, Sid.
30:23Did you reach Brigitte?
30:26We can't get through.
30:29No, we're trying hard.
30:34I've tried it five or six times.
30:36Nobody can reach them.
30:45Who knows if she survived the night.
30:53The Bob Barker has arrived at the last known coordinates of Brigitte Bardot.
30:58There is something right in front of us.
31:12Take the binoculars.
31:15The point on the horizon is only 15 kilometers away.
31:19The crew therefore tries to contact Brigitte Bardot via radio.
31:23The point belongs to skewed.
31:24No, not just Hz.
31:26For example, I ask.
31:27Jean-No, Jono.
31:28Peter?
31:40Brigitte Bardot?
31:41Bob Barker?
31:46Roberto?
31:47This is »Sien.
31:48It is » for« Peters.
31:48This is » heartily rethought.
31:49Roasted pill.
31:50And that's what's so special about Denise.
31:51iana It works now.
31:51I hear you, Peter.
31:58Nice to see you.
32:02Thank you for coming.
32:04It goes without saying.
32:06How's the crew doing?
32:10Everyone is fine.
32:13Maybe they should call home and say everything is okay.
32:18Okay, let's do it.
32:19It was a huge relief.
32:25After such a long time, we finally had contact with Brigitte Bardot again.
32:30After a sleepless night, the crew members of the Brigitte Bardot wait for the arrival of their colleagues.
32:50We just sat there and stared at the Bob Barker.
32:59Nobody said anything.
33:01It was all completely unreal.
33:02You lie in your bunk and are completely exhausted.
33:17You try to sleep, but with every wave you think, is the swimmer going to fall off completely?
33:22We feel like we have failed because we didn't do our job.
33:30The whales will therefore suffer.
33:31At the moment we are just exhausted.
33:41We could have sunk last night.
33:48Every now and then you ask yourself, what are you actually doing here?
33:50And when you suddenly find yourself in mortal danger, it's pretty intense and you start to feel scared.
34:00The sun has risen and I have only slept for half an hour.
34:13I tried to sleep, but every creak and every bang woke me up.
34:19You never know if the thing will fall off or not.
34:22When it happens, you have no control in the middle of the night.
34:25That is quite threatening.
34:30If this thing breaks off, how do we get the ship to safety?
34:44We just tie everything together as tightly as possible.
34:47There is nothing more we can do.
34:50It's best to secure everything with a rope.
34:51We'll take another look at the damage.
35:08I slept for five hours.
35:10My body was exhausted, but my thoughts were racing through my head.
35:15When I see the damage, I feel really sick.
35:17The entire upper part has shifted.
35:26It's a miracle that thing isn't gone yet.
35:29The swimmer is dead.
35:35The crew of the Brigitte Bardot is safe.
35:38But nobody knows how the Sea Shepherds’ mission will continue,
35:42after their secret weapon in the fight against the whalers is disabled.
35:47It feels like a dream.
35:55At the same time, I am very angry about how the whole thing happened.
35:59We have worked so hard on the ship to prepare it as best as possible for deployment.
36:06But Mother Nature gave us a real kick in the ass.
36:09The Steve Irwin is now only 80 kilometers away from the Brigitte Bardot.
36:23She is still being pursued by the whaling fleet's security ship.
36:26Has the Shonan come closer?
36:34I don't want them to get attached to Bob Barker.
36:38As soon as we are only 50 kilometers away, the Bob Barker should move on.
36:42Paul says the Steve Irwin will stay in contact with us as it approaches.
37:08We'll leave in time so we don't have the Shonan Maru 2 on our backs.
37:15Sounds good, let's keep our eyes open.
37:17The crew of the Bob Barker is preparing to launch one of their small boats to assess the damage to the Brigitte Bardot.
37:35I have them.
37:37Yes.
37:38We are really happy to see you.
37:49Nice to see you.
37:52Then hurry up so we can get on with the actual campaign.
38:00Phil Peterson has been repairing ships for 30 years.
38:04He should try to secure the swimmer as best as possible.
38:08Hopefully the Shonan doesn't accelerate.
38:13We have to hurry.
38:21They're on their way, Alex.
38:30When we finally saw the Bob Barker, it was like heaven on earth.
38:34When I saw the damage, I immediately knew it was serious.
38:43The swimmer was only held up by a few ropes.
38:45The ship was definitely not seaworthy.
38:49Peterson doesn't have much time for a temporary solution.
38:53Because the Steve Irwin and the Shonan Maru 2 are not far away.
38:57You see what we did with the cucumbers.
39:06Anyone else want to join us? We have two free spots.
39:10Ryan and Joe are determined to continue with the mission.
39:19It was clear, it was either now or never.
39:22I was completely exhausted mentally and physically.
39:33But I still didn't hesitate for a second.
39:35This has been my home for months now.
39:44But I'm glad I can continue to be involved.
39:50Beck Straussner and Phil Peterson secure the swimmer with additional straps as best they can.
39:55This is only a temporary solution until we get to Perth or Fremantle.
40:08There it will be properly repaired.
40:10It makes perfect sense for Ryan and Joe to go on the Bob Barker.
40:36This means there will be fewer crew members on board in case we do have to evacuate.
40:52The captain gave us 15 minutes to pack and then we were off.
40:58I am happy to continue to be part of this campaign.
41:01I am happy to continue to be part of this campaign.
41:06Love you guys.
41:06See you back in four weeks, Dan.
41:11Say hi to Hammer.
41:13Say good time.
41:14Thank you.
41:19All right.
41:30Looking good?
41:31If the Shonan appears now, the campaign is over for us.
41:41Alex Cornelison wants to return to the whaling grounds as soon as possible.
41:49Sorry, Jono.
41:51I can't do anything to myself at the moment.
41:53We have to leave now so the Shonan doesn't catch us.
41:56There is no longer any acute danger and the ship will hold out safely until the Steve Irwin arrives.
42:06We are ready.
42:10Now we're back to the Nishin Maru.
42:15The Bob Barker is returning to Antarctica.
42:18The crew doesn't know what awaits them there.
42:20But she expects the reception to be rather frosty.
42:33The Bob Barker is now all alone in searching for the factory ship.
42:39The other two go to the harbor.
42:41So now everything depends on us, here in the Southern Ocean, in the fight against the whaling fleet.
42:46Next time at Whale Wars.
43:05We won't know what weapons they have until we get there.
43:09This is not a game, this is war.
43:13We must stop them immediately.
43:16Suddenly the float broke off.
43:19The ship must be evacuated.
43:25This puts everyone in danger.
43:28Look at it, look at it, look at it.
43:32Look at it, look at it.
