Sig only disregards his own health. He cares so much about his crew but while he's having a major heart attack he says "Im not dying so just shut up about that." What a mad lad.
As Johnathan Hillstrand said during the Phil Harris Tribute, "it's Just the Bearing Sea Mentality" Sig has it, ANd of course I think most top Captains have that, As long as my crew is ok and im having trouble, thats fine, Crews Safe.
@@ericjohns9999No, Nick sued Hansen Ent Inc and in return Hansen Ent Inc sued the Original Productions (Discovery’s producers) and their medical team bcuz their COVID protocols kept crews from being able to be seen by anyone not affiliated with the show. When he wasn’t feeling good at first (at sea) Sig had Discovery’s medical team look at him and they were the ones that misdiagnosed him.
I've always been impressed with Sig's ability to separate the importance of someone's health vs getting the job done. When it's been a legit concern you've never once heard him complain about the situation. He might acknowledge it, but it's never a complaint.
@George-Floyd_conservative he did that because it was during covid and discovery wouldn't not let him leave to see a doctor. He had to use Discovery's medical team. Ans I believe Sig sued Discovery. That's just what I've heard though.
I had a pain in my ribs like that for months kept working finally went to the hospital and they tell me you have colon cancer and your so anemic we don’t know how your standing. Thank god he went when he did i got lucky life is so precious never take it for granted
Northwestern is my favorite boat. They're much more of a family (literally and metaphorically) than most of the rest of the boats featured. Little greenhorn drama, father, brother, daughter, son-in-law, long time crew. I'm realizing lately also, I like post heart attack Sig much more than I liked younger Sig.
After you had one leg in the grave you see life very differently and also treat things differently. He can't afford being stressed cause his heart attack was stress related .Poor Nick. Hope his appendix hadn't burst..🙏💙
Nick is VERY lucky. Appendicitis goes from a little random pain to putting you in the ground with lightning speed. He's a good fellow. I've never had the chance to meet him in person but i've got friends who know him. I'm very glad they caught this in time.
Realistically if you have the pain of a burst appendix and go get treatment right away it's not really that dangerous, infact it's the most performed emergency surgery people are admitted for. However if you are at sea, or you don't have access to medical care, it is very very dangerous.
@@masonicmachine incorrect, i went from haveing a pressure in my lower right groin area to raging fever and it almost about to burst in about a day and a half. in fact apparently it did burst during the operation to remove it. it nearly killed me in the time it took for the lab results to confirm it and going under the knife. its a bad condition and can kill anyone, anywere, anytime. mercifully it has a distinct and un-mistakable set of symptoms and when you have it you bloody well know.
My sister almost died of a burst appendix. It's scary as hell. I hope Nick recovered well and continuing rocking on the Southwestern 💙❤.When Sig blew the horn i got emotional. Sig is a good captain and friend ❤💙
Everyone else is talking about the needle and the only thing I can talk about is that crosswind during takeoff. Pilot has balls of steel and skills. Watch the snow on the ground to get a idea of just how fast the wind is moving. Hope Nick got his appendix out and is recovering well.
Having been on a small commuter plane in heavy crosswind - your only hope is pilot knows when to hold and when to fold. Ours aborted landing and flew back 300 miles to MPLS from Intl Falls.
He is like 15 degrees nose right. Although having to land there might even be scarier, having to point your nose in the same direction just to stay straight with the runway
When I worked out in the gulf, we worked on one platform, and lived on the other. When the chopper landed in the morning to fly us over, we would strap the pontoons to the heli-port to keep the chopper from blowing away. He would get the rotors revving real high and give the signal to pop the straps. That was a wild ride. Because no matter what, we always came out sideways and dropped like a rock....Damn. I miss the good old days. LOL.
I watch this show and these guys have a brotherhood much like what you would find in the military. You push yourself further everyday because you don't want to be the weak link in the system. Guys like Nick, they would never complain, the lead by the example they set. Hats off to these guys for standing up and watching out for each other. On a separate thought. I would love to have Discovery sit down with Mandy and ask her about being a third generation Hansen sitting in the seat that her grandfather did. You know that she has to have some strong emotions when the thought comes up, hey, my grandfather sat here. After one of those moments that scare the crap out of you. I wonder just how many times she has said a thank you to her grandfather for designing and building such a solid fishing vessel? What an amazing heritage.
Nick is one of the people I admire most on the show, so nothing can happen to him, have wondered what my brother is Sig? While you struggle with everything from catching storms and damage to yourselves and the boat, God is always with you. Robert from sweden.
My fathers appendix burst at sea and we almost lost him to septic shock. Dr was surprised that he lived considering the amount of time it took for him to get medical attention and surgery. A week later I was having mine removed at the same hospital.
Had a buddy die at 15 due to appendicitis. Thats nothing to mess with. His ruptured than he fell into coma in a vegetable state and they pulled the plug a few days later. I'm happy they were on top of that. It saved that man's life.
Not surprising tbh, while appendicitis in itself isn't that bad if taken care of quickly, if it ever degenerates into peritonitis it just becomes one of the worst possible things for the body...the fluid that spills from a burst appendix is both highly infectious and extremely irritant/corrosive. It would essentially shut down and destroy everything in its path. :(
My dad went to emergency with appendix pain, the jerk ER Doc dismissed him and said it was just gas and sent him home. His appendix burst in the car and luckily my mom turned around and b lined it back when the pain suddenly went away. My dad is a peaceful person, but he wanted to knock that doctor out when he saw him again
Sig is so good, his safety record is so good, bless, he does what's right always, sometimes he is super focused on the numbers, and the grinding, but at back of his mind, he does care, genuinely care, Blessings, Sig is my favourite captain, I watch deadliest catch all the time.
So he don’t sue sig, he sued the production company and subcontractors for not providing immediate medical attention.. Sig and the F/V NW are now suing the production company, on board medical team, and subcontractors for medical issues that arrived from Nicks Issue.. At first the lawsuit was against sig, after realizing it wasn’t sig, the lawsuit was refiled against the other parties I mentioned.. Rip Nick
@@LearningGilmour if you check a variety of sources he sued Sig. Then Sig sued the production company.. whether the original suit was amended or not is unclear. At the present it's not the top issue.
@@loonhaunt I just went online and read for myself before I posted, the original suit was against sig, that was dropped and he then sued the production company sig as well took up a counter suit against the production company..
They were *insanely* lucky that they were at the dock, and that Nick didn't try and bullshit his way out of going to the hospital (Nick is a tough ol' cuss, and he doesn't say squat unless something is REALLY bad).
Love the line someone was looking over him ! Same ONE that was looking over Sig & his brother same one that was watching over me when i had the same heart attack Sig had and survived. Thank you my lord for saving me ❤
I haven't had appendicitis *knock on wood* but I have had the painful pleasure of seven gallstones in my gall bladder, which was removed. NOT saying appendicitis is minor pain at all, but it wouldn't surprise me if the pain of appendicitis and gallstones are similar in severity. O.M.G., that hurt.
I had exactly the same thought! Ive stopped watching about 8 years ago and its amazing how fast theyve aged. CIgarettes, no sleep and manual work do that to a human I guess.
Nick is an old school crabber. Just like Phil, nick would have never said anything until it was way too late. It’s fortunate that y’all were at dock and he said something.
@B. Bashnerd Lol, the ENTIRE CREW does cocaine. I know, you don’t wanna believe it. But it’s the absolute facts. I did SAR for over 2 decades, seen more than enough.
@@SAR-MH53 doesn't make them bad people. Just means they needed an escape from their situations and therefore deserve compassion and help when they are ready to accept it.
I had appendicitis. I have a very high pain tolerance an went 2 days with pain then it ruptured, went another 2 days an then was finally taken to a small clinic where they told my dad an me that my appendix had ruptured and I needed surgery now. So my dad took me to a hospital Doctors put a rush on all my work, had me in a mri within 30 minutes of arriving and had me in surgery within the 1st hour of getting there. After waking up the next day the doctor talked to me about how close I was to being past the point if no return, I developed gangrene on all my intestines and some of my organs. If I had waited another few hours the infection would've been so severe that they would've just given me pain med till I passed. A 30 minute routine surgery turned into a 4 1/2 hour surgery, the amount of cleaning they had to do was extensive. It took 1 week in the hospital under observation and 2 weeks of recovery before I could do much on my own.
We had a “Nick” at work who complained of sore ribs for a couple days . He went out to warm up his car and died ! Nobody noticed at first , it looked like he was looking underneath his seat for something .
That is the TRUE fisherman , blare the horn like st. Micheal blared the trumpet in heaven!! Respect for you Sig, and to your crew of the northwestern and hopefully Nick made a quick and healthy recovery!!! 🤙🦀🤙🦀🤙
I just have to say, I honestly have to wonder how Jake Anderson reacted to hearing about this. It seems like Nick was more then an uncle and crew-mate to him, especially with what he went through and Nick having to be the one to deliver the news.
Been there done that going into my 8 th of pregnancy had to have mine taken out . No fun mine didn't repture thank goodness. None the less very painful. Speedy recovery Nick. Sig your the best
I had appendicitis when I was pregnant with my third baby. It was the tail end of my first trimester and that whole pregnancy was an illness but that two days before I finally went to the hospital were literal hell. I was throwing up non stop, in severe pain. Thought it was just really bad morning sickness that was out of control but finally gave in and went to ER. Because of the baby they couldn’t do any scans other than an ultrasound which they said would be very difficult to see if it was appendicitis on an ultrasound. I ended up spiking a fever and once they did the ultrasound they said the appendix was so big it was undeniable and It was close to bursting. Had emergency surgery which needed to go about differently due to my pregnancy. Had to sign forms that I knew there were risks having surgery at that point in my pregnancy. All ends ip going well, was in the hospital for a week and 6 months later (after a very difficult pregnancy) my lucky rainbow baby was born. 0/10 do not recommend appendicitis.
@@BasketOfPuppies lol got to find the humor in bad things man, otherwise you’ll lose your mind. But now anytime one of my kids starts complaint of a weird pain in their abdomen in the spot where the appendix is I start to panic.
@@BasketOfPuppies seconded, dont recommend it. i had it too and lucky it burst wile i was on the table which im told would have been mortal agony. the runup was absolutely no fun at all.
My prayers go out to you Nick for a speedy recovery and also to the rest of the fleet so that God and all the angels in heaven always watch over and bring you home safe every time you go out to sea. It’s weird how an organ that doesn’t really serve much purpose anymore can cause such a huge and serious problem when it gets inflamed or infected.
The part where Sig said Nick's white blood cell count was triple what it's supposed to be (4,500 to 11,000 WBCs per microliter of blood, so multiply those numbers by 3) just floored me. That could have easily been catastrophic for Nick in a great, big hurry. I'm glad they caught it in time.
Appendicitis is no joke. Had it myself as a teen while at high school. I started having of moderate pain in the lower belly, had the presence of mind to go to the infirmary wing to get checked and receive advice. The nurse gave me a first dose of painkillers and told me to come back immediately hat if the pain started to focus more on the lower right side during the day. It sadly did, so I was sent off home to see the doc and get scanned, which confirmed the appendicitis. By the time (2/3 days) I got a room at the clinic for the surgery, the pain had become such that, the final night, I could no longer sleep. The surgeon who took care of me said my appendix was real bad when he removed it and that I was lucky to avoid peritonitis as it hadn't burst. Even after surgery was performed, I could not get up and walk at all for 3 days as the pain was too strong. I left hospital 5 days after the surgery and could still hardly walk unaided. That shit is really highly infectious and can kill. Particularly peritonitis. Plain and simple. If you suspect appendicitis, get medically checked asap !
2 yrs ago I had a fever for about 10 days I disregarded as an autoimmune flare-up. Cut to day 12 I passed out at 7 am when hub & daughter were getting ready. It was sepsis from my gallbladder. 5 days in hospital on IV antibiotics. The dominoes fall fast once septic shock starts. I had around 30 needle site sticks. Fluid on my lungs. Beeped blood thinners & IV antibiotics first 3 days. It was pure hell.
I salute you sig you are the best captain of the fleet by far. I was in seattle last week staying in the westin Hotel. They said anything we can do for you sir I replied could you get me sig hansens autograph before we cruise to alaska. I was unlucky. Take care and stay safe sir. Tom.
My father had appendicitis while out of town on work. He managed to drive himself to the emergency room and after being made to wait 6 hours with no more than a Tylenol to ease his excruciating pain they sent him away chalking it up to digestive issues. An hour later at the hotel he suddenly felt no pain. Luckily he didn’t interpret this as a positive thing and raced back to the hospital where he collapsed in the entrance of the ER. They took him in for emergency surgery and luckily were able to contain the septic contamination. After he was in recovery the doctor that sent him home had to see him as part of his rounds, he wouldn’t even look my father in the eye and treated him very rudely. Wish I could get my hands on that guy.
Pinned comment --- THIS CAN BE DEADLY -- Symptoms are similar to food poisoning. Vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, and fever. I thought I had food poisoning and was ignorant and tried to be tough.....until my appendix burst and i almost died. Please don't let that happen to your or friends.
very similar thing happened to me when I was 9. I was out sick at home my appendix ruptured (didn't know what happened just a good amount of pain when it ruptured) while my mom was at work I tried to tough it out. 7 hours later I was in the hospital the staff had to run after the pediatric surgeon because he was walking out after his shift and I spent nearly two weeks in the hospital. Appendicitis is no joke
Sig only disregards his own health. He cares so much about his crew but while he's having a major heart attack he says "Im not dying so just shut up about that." What a mad lad.
He has a will of steel, even gave up a lifelong smoking habit to lesson the strain on his heart and lungs!

All ends ip going well, was in the hospital for a week and 6 months later (after a very difficult pregnancy) my lucky rainbow baby was born.
0/10 do not recommend appendicitis.
It's the "do not recommend" that makes that hysterical, before that it's all terrifying.
@@BasketOfPuppies lol got to find the humor in bad things man, otherwise you’ll lose your mind. But now anytime one of my kids starts complaint of a weird pain in their abdomen in the spot where the appendix is I start to panic.
@@BasketOfPuppies seconded, dont recommend it. i had it too and lucky it burst wile i was on the table which im told would have been mortal agony. the runup was absolutely no fun at all.
I'm so glad you and your baby are ok! Wow 🙏🏻
I'll ask my church to pray for him and so will I and for the rest of the crew. Be safe out there guys.💖
He’s all good . I believe the show is filmed abt 6ish months before airing
RIP Nick Mavar
I love the way they add sound effects when squeezing his toe.
Godspeed and fair winds Nick
My prayers go out to you Nick for a speedy recovery and also to the rest of the fleet so that God and all the angels in heaven always watch over and bring you home safe every time you go out to sea. It’s weird how an organ that doesn’t really serve much purpose anymore can cause such a huge and serious problem when it gets inflamed or infected.
The part where Sig said Nick's white blood cell count was triple what it's supposed to be (4,500 to 11,000 WBCs per microliter of blood, so multiply those numbers by 3) just floored me. That could have easily been catastrophic for Nick in a great, big hurry. I'm glad they caught it in time.
Get well soon, Nick.
I know the Paramedic first hand! Great guy!
These guys have the type of work ethic, that Sig was correct...he WOULD have pushed until he ruptured and became septic.
Good dave sig, the signs of a good leader a good captain and a good boss.
Rest in peace Nick...
Sad he died so young,RIP
The guy didn't even flinch...😯
Wow! They actually said Covid and it was bleeped or anything. Damn. 😂
That seattle kraken shirt though! The boys love them some hockey
Praying for you, Nick!
I thought for a minute they were talking about the Nick that od’d. Wrong Nick. This Nick is rock solid in recovery and a pillar of the program.
Blessings to you and your whole crew!! Nick is in Good hands, Thank God!!
Appendicitis is no joke. Had it myself as a teen while at high school. I started having of moderate pain in the lower belly, had the presence of mind to go to the infirmary wing to get checked and receive advice. The nurse gave me a first dose of painkillers and told me to come back immediately hat if the pain started to focus more on the lower right side during the day.
It sadly did, so I was sent off home to see the doc and get scanned, which confirmed the appendicitis.
By the time (2/3 days) I got a room at the clinic for the surgery, the pain had become such that, the final night, I could no longer sleep. The surgeon who took care of me said my appendix was real bad when he removed it and that I was lucky to avoid peritonitis as it hadn't burst.
Even after surgery was performed, I could not get up and walk at all for 3 days as the pain was too strong. I left hospital 5 days after the surgery and could still hardly walk unaided.
That shit is really highly infectious and can kill. Particularly peritonitis. Plain and simple. If you suspect appendicitis, get medically checked asap !
Hurry and get well Nick.
Appendicitis is no joke had one a couple years ago, feels like a dagger going into your side, hurts like hell
Prayers for Nick
He is darn lucky. My appendix burst when I was 12 and I was very very ill. I had emergency surgery. You do not mess around with appendix
2 yrs ago I had a fever for about 10 days I disregarded as an autoimmune flare-up. Cut to day 12 I passed out at 7 am when hub & daughter were getting ready. It was sepsis from my gallbladder. 5 days in hospital on IV antibiotics. The dominoes fall fast once septic shock starts. I had around 30 needle site sticks. Fluid on my lungs. Beeped blood thinners & IV antibiotics first 3 days. It was pure hell.
I'm so proud of us Blue Collar workers.. Love all you men and women...
God I love and appreciate Sig so much.
Sig's always been my fav
RIP Nick 🕊️
I salute you sig you are the best captain of the fleet by far. I was in seattle last week staying in the westin Hotel. They said anything we can do for you sir I replied could you get me sig hansens autograph before we cruise to alaska. I was unlucky. Take care and stay safe sir. Tom.
The horn blow broke me😢
Hey there Nick...Amigo...Hope your feeling better...Anthony / Lady C / Bristol Bay
I love Sig! So much better than those drama queens over at the Drama I mean Saga😂
Yep Sig said ur done. So he joins Jake on the Saga. When Sig heard about that he was pissed off.
best ship ever on this programme
It’s a good thing all of this happens while In port
Ohhh nooooo! Nick cracks me up when a bad pot comes up.
My father had appendicitis while out of town on work. He managed to drive himself to the emergency room and after being made to wait 6 hours with no more than a Tylenol to ease his excruciating pain they sent him away chalking it up to digestive issues.
An hour later at the hotel he suddenly felt no pain. Luckily he didn’t interpret this as a positive thing and raced back to the hospital where he collapsed in the entrance of the ER. They took him in for emergency surgery and luckily were able to contain the septic contamination.
After he was in recovery the doctor that sent him home had to see him as part of his rounds, he wouldn’t even look my father in the eye and treated him very rudely. Wish I could get my hands on that guy.
RIP Nick.
Nick is a beast.
Love y'all. So glad you see your crew as 👪
Ich liebe diese Männer Ich liebe diese Serie!!!Alles Gute für alle !!!👍👍👍🐙🐙🐙🇩🇪
Good call to have the medic come back out and check him again
He sued Sig over the whole ordeal. Made me lose a lot of respect for Nick.
Rip nick
Pinned comment --- THIS CAN BE DEADLY -- Symptoms are similar to food poisoning. Vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, and fever. I thought I had food poisoning and was ignorant and tried to be tough.....until my appendix burst and i almost died. Please don't let that happen to your or friends.
very similar thing happened to me when I was 9. I was out sick at home my appendix ruptured (didn't know what happened just a good amount of pain when it ruptured) while my mom was at work I tried to tough it out. 7 hours later I was in the hospital the staff had to run after the pediatric surgeon because he was walking out after his shift and I spent nearly two weeks in the hospital. Appendicitis is no joke
If there's an emergency at sea, Sig is who everyone wants to be captain of their ship or boat.
When he blew the horn at the plane taking off. 😭
Love the Seattle Kracken sweatshirt. RIP Nick. You’re heavily missed
R.I.P.good man gone
my uncle had the same thing, and it burst, he was out at sea for days with septic shock, he was yellow when he finally got to the hospital
