I can say, with out a doubt, nobody is going to fall overboard in the Bering Sea just to "HAM IT UP " the shock of hitting the water alone is enough to cause cardiac arrest add to that the weight of foul weather gear and hip boots filled with water and your lucky if you can stay afloat long enough for a rescue.The rule is 50 degree water for 50 min. and you stand a 50/50 chance of survival. The avg. temp in the Bering Sea is around 38 degrees at those temps you get 15 min. with a 15 % chance of survival.

True professional fishermen.
