“It was not going to happen again,” Trosvig wrote. In a brief Facebook post Tuesday, he said he had lost his twin brother “to the sea.” Trosvig, a resident of Kodiak, Alaska, has been fishing in the area for more than 20 years, according to local media. The crew members’ names have not been released, nor has the rescued fisherman’s medical condition. Officials said it wasn’t clear what caused the Grayling to capsize. “It is a testament to how tough those fishermen are and how far they will go to help their fellow Alaskans.” “That fisherman didn’t hesitate,” he said in a statement. Riley, the helicopter pilot, also praised Trosvig’s actions. “Chris was the hero,” Pruitt told the Dispatch News. The Coast Guard told local media that the fisherman was taken by helicopter to the Kodiak Municipal Airport, where medics treated him for hypothermia and aspiration of diesel fuel. After about five minutes, Pruitt said, the fisherman was revived. Once on board, Trosvig immediately started performing CPR, Pruitt told the Dispatch News. The video ends as the men begin lifting the fisherman out of the water. A man on board throws them a rope and an orange float and pulls them to the vehicle’s aft.
