Episode 172: It Floats

Not Today

17-year-old Josh Long and his best friend, 15-year-old Troy Driscoll, decided they wanted to go shark fishing one Sunday afternoon in 2005. The two planned to spend a few hours in the ocean off the coast of South Carolina in a small row boat, however things got bad very quickly when their small boat got caught in a very strong rip tide that pulled them out to sea in a matter of minutes. The teenage boys would have to spend the next 6 days stranded in the middle of the ocean, with no food, water, or a way out.
