  1. 0:03If you are lost at sea, the probability
  2. 0:05of being rescued is very low. But what
  3. 0:08is certain is that the sea will
  4. 0:09eventually bring you to land, somewhere
  5. 0:11. The question is whether it will bring
  6. 0:14you back dead or alive. The sea is
  7. 0:18truly terrifying. And the most
  8. 0:19terrifying thing about it is not sharks
  9. 0:22or dehydration. The most terrifying
  10. 0:24thing is sea-related hallucinations.
  11. 0:27This phenomenon has literally baffled
  12. 0:30scientists, despite the depth of the
  13. 0:32region. I have brought you the truth
  14. 0:34about the sea and the chances of
  15. 0:36survival if you get lost in the heart
  16. 0:38of the ocean. And why sea
  17. 0:40hallucinations are the biggest factor
  18. 0:42in the death of those lost at sea. We
  19. 1:16all know that the sea has thousands of
  20. 1:18ships sailing every day. Figures
  21. 1:20indicate and confirm that there are
  22. 1:23more than 300,000 ships and boats at
  23. 1:25sea every day. This makes a person feel
  24. 1:29that in case they are lost at sea,
  25. 1:31there is a chance of encountering a
  26. 1:33ship or a boat, since there are
  27. 1:34thousands of them. But the calculated
  28. 1:38mathematical probabilities are
  29. 1:40disappointing to a great degree. A
  30. 1:43person will enter the sea in 2012 and
  31. 1:46remain there until 2014. 17,112. In
  32. 1:56this small village called Costa Azul,
  33. 1:58near the Mexican state of Chiapas,
  34. 2:00lived a fisherman named José Salvador
  35. 2:03Alvarenga. An experienced and
  36. 2:06professional shark fisherman, with his
  37. 2:09companion Ezekiel Córdoba. On this day
  38. 2:12, he decided to set off on a fishing
  39. 2:14trip as usual. The planned duration of
  40. 2:16the trip was just two days. But
  41. 2:19unfortunately, the winds do not always
  42. 2:21blow as the ships desire. Since ships
  43. 2:23desire a light and gentle breeze. As
  44. 2:26for the wild, strong winds, no one can
  45. 2:28handle them at all. But unfortunately,
  46. 2:31the winds do not always blow as the
  47. 2:32ships desire. A few hours into the trip
  48. 2:36, a very strong storm began, and it
  49. 2:39lasted for a whole week. Fisherman
  50. 2:42José, due to his experience in the
  51. 2:44area, realized this was no ordinary
  52. 2:46storm. He immediately started throwing
  53. 2:49his equipment and supplies overboard.
  54. 2:51To such an extent that he threw away
  55. 2:53more than 500 kilograms of food,
  56. 2:55supplies, and gear. He thought that
  57. 2:59this storm would not last long; an hour
  58. 3:01, two, or three, and it would stop. And
  59. 3:04then they would return to the port from
  60. 3:06which they departed. But unfortunately,
  61. 3:09the storm lasted for seven full days.
  62. 3:12For a whole week, the fisherman José
  63. 3:14and his assistant had no sleep and no
  64. 3:16rest. Their only goal was to cling to
  65. 3:19the boat so they wouldn't be thrown
  66. 3:21overboard. After a whole week, the
  67. 3:23storm finally ended. But it had swept
  68. 3:25them far away into the heart of the
  69. 3:27ocean. They no longer knew in which
  70. 3:28direction they were headed. Land was no
  71. 3:30longer in sight. And on top of that,
  72. 3:33unfortunately, they had thrown away and
  73. 3:35discarded all their supplies and
  74. 3:36equipment. They threw more than 500
  75. 3:38kilograms into the sea. A dark tragedy
  76. 3:41they were stuck in. As you know,
  77. 3:43problems don't ask for permission; they
  78. 3:45don't come one by one, they come all at
  79. 3:47once. Our crew would lose their
  80. 3:50supplies and food. And they would also
  81. 3:53lose their engine; it broke down and
  82. 3:55stopped working. And they would also
  83. 3:57lose contact with the port; they no
  84. 3:59longer had any communication. And so
  85. 4:01they were lost in the ocean, without
  86. 4:03food, without an engine, and without
  87. 4:05communication—the fisherman José. He
  88. 4:08and his assistant survived only on fish
  89. 4:11. Which they caught only with their
  90. 4:12hands. And they ate it raw, uncooked.
  91. 4:15As for water, they had only three
  92. 4:18sources. Either they drank rainwater.
  93. 4:21Or they drank the blood of turtles and
  94. 4:23birds. Or they drank their own urine.
  95. 4:25Over time, even their urine was no
  96. 4:27longer an option. Because their urine
  97. 4:30had developed a high concentration of
  98. 4:31salt. They derived no benefit from it.
  99. 4:34Other than it making them thirstier.
  100. 4:36Meaning it was better for them not to
  101. 4:37drink it. Here, things might seem
  102. 4:39complicated to you. And the situation a
  103. 4:41bit dire. But the real dire situation
  104. 4:44is just about to begin. Because until
  105. 4:46now, they were two. Meaning they were
  106. 4:48fighting the most dangerous thing at
  107. 4:50sea. Which is hallucinations and
  108. 4:52madness. And people who work at sea
  109. 4:54know this issue well. The fisherman
  110. 4:56José and his assistant were two.
  111. 4:58Meaning they kept each other company.
  112. 4:59They talked to each other. Sometimes
  113. 5:01gossiping, and so on. The most
  114. 5:02important thing is that they were two.
  115. 5:04And this helps in fighting
  116. 5:05hallucinations and madness at sea. But
  117. 5:08this situation would not last long.
  118. 5:10Because after a few weeks. His
  119. 5:13assistant and companion, Ezequiel
  120. 5:15Córdoba, could not endure. And he
  121. 5:17would die. And here, José could not
  122. 5:19bear this situation. He could not bring
  123. 5:21himself to get rid of his companion's
  124. 5:23body. He kept it in the bow of the boat
  125. 5:26. He left it there for a whole week.
  126. 5:29Every day, he would talk to him. He
  127. 5:30would converse with him as if he were
  128. 5:32still alive. He would ask him how he
  129. 5:34slept. Whether he had eaten. Whether he
  130. 5:36had drunk. Whether he was happy. In a
  131. 5:38desperate attempt to fight the
  132. 5:40loneliness. But in the end, he had no
  133. 5:43other choice. Other than to dispose of
  134. 5:45the body at sea. And as soon as he
  135. 5:47threw it into the sea, he lost
  136. 5:49consciousness. Here, the real suffering
  137. 5:52and true hell would begin. Everything
  138. 5:55that happened before is nothing
  139. 5:57compared to what is coming. The hardest
  140. 5:59thing at sea is loneliness. Which leads
  141. 6:02to hallucinations and madness. The
  142. 6:04toughest challenge is fighting
  143. 6:05loneliness. And trying to keep one's
  144. 6:08sanity. This is a harder task than food
  145. 6:11and water. If you are lost at sea and
  146. 6:14alone. Without a companion, it is
  147. 6:16nearly impossible to resist madness.
  148. 6:18You will desperately try to make
  149. 6:20friends with anything at all. Even if
  150. 6:22it's just anything. A piece of wood. A
  151. 6:24stick. A water bottle. A pack of
  152. 6:26cigarettes. A person lost in the heart
  153. 6:28of the ocean tries to make friends with
  154. 6:31anything. To fight madness so they
  155. 6:33don't go crazy. And it is not only the
  156. 6:35loneliness that drives one crazy. But
  157. 6:37the scenery that repeats every day is
  158. 6:39also maddening. Every day you see the
  159. 6:42same view. Zero change. In front of you
  160. 6:44, behind you, right and left. The same
  161. 6:46decor, the same view. It is as if
  162. 6:48space-time is fixed and unmoving. And
  163. 6:51this feeling makes you enter into
  164. 6:52advanced hallucination. The famous film
  165. 6:55Cast Away, many of you know it. Tom
  166. 6:57Hanks, who was alone on a deserted
  167. 6:59island. Would form the most famous
  168. 7:00friendship. Which is with a ball he
  169. 7:03named Wilson. Because of this ball, he
  170. 7:05was able to keep his sanity and not go
  171. 7:07crazy. And this ball was everything to
  172. 7:09him. Because he knew the most dangerous
  173. 7:12thing was not hunger or thirst. But
  174. 7:14loneliness. Because loneliness causes
  175. 7:17madness. And the day he lost the ball
  176. 7:18Wilson, he almost went crazy. He
  177. 7:20started crying and he too lost
  178. 7:22consciousness. The same cinematic
  179. 7:24fiction would come to life in reality.
  180. 7:26Fisherman José lost his companion. And
  181. 7:29he too would lose consciousness, right
  182. 7:31after he got rid of the body in the sea
  183. 7:33. Stuart Grassian, an American
  184. 7:36psychiatrist, conducted a serious study
  185. 7:38in 1983. A study that included many
  186. 7:41prisoners sentenced to solitary
  187. 7:42confinement. He found that most of them
  188. 7:45suffered from isolation syndrome,
  189. 7:47hallucinations. Visual and auditory,
  190. 7:49and even talking to people who don't
  191. 7:51exist in reality, and this is exactly
  192. 7:53what fisherman José suffered from; he
  193. 7:55suffered from the same symptoms, severe
  194. 7:57hallucinations, and even creating
  195. 7:59imaginary characters that weren't real
  196. 8:01at all, with the goal of talking from
  197. 8:02time to time. And this is a smart move.
  198. 8:06And fisherman José is not considered
  199. 8:08insane, because the act of talking to
  200. 8:10non-existent characters...This is a
  201. 8:11very smart act. And because of this act
  202. 8:14, José would be able to keep his mind.
  203. 8:16And not fall into madness. Because
  204. 8:18unfortunately, he wouldn't just stay
  205. 8:20for a few days at sea. A week, two
  206. 8:22weeks, two months, no. Unfortunately,
  207. 8:25he would spend more than 400 days at
  208. 8:28sea. On January 30, 2014, on the coasts
  209. 8:37of the Marshall Islands, a man and his
  210. 8:39wife would see a human emerging from
  211. 8:41the sea. But his appearance was not
  212. 8:44normal. A human with thick hair,
  213. 8:47emaciated build, thin and weak, and in
  214. 8:49a pathetic state. And this person was
  215. 8:52the fisherman José. Who entered the
  216. 8:54sea on 17/11/2012. And came out of it
  217. 8:58on 30/1/2014, meaning he stayed in the
  218. 9:01sea for 438. Days. He entered the sea
  219. 9:05at this point and came out of it at
  220. 9:07this point. He covered a distance of
  221. 9:0910,783. A vast, huge distance, from
  222. 9:142012 until 2014. Only then did he
  223. 9:17emerge from the sea. During this entire
  224. 9:18period, he saw with his own eyes. And a
  225. 9:20few ships passed in front of him. And
  226. 9:22they were very far from him. They
  227. 9:24couldn't see him. And they couldn't
  228. 9:25hear his voice. And it was only by
  229. 9:27chance that he could reach the Marshall
  230. 9:28Islands. He had no engine, no sail, no
  231. 9:31oar, nothing. Just so you know to what
  232. 9:34extent the vast sea is wide. And the
  233. 9:36chances are very slim to meet a ship in
  234. 9:39the sea. For 438 days, he didn't meet a
  235. 9:42single ship. He was alone in the sea.
  236. 9:44And this shows that the probability of
  237. 9:46meeting a ship and being rescued is
  238. 9:48very slim. A very slim, tiny
  239. 9:50probability. And this we will show you
  240. 9:52mathematically in this video. If you
  241. 9:55were lost in the sea, the probability
  242. 9:58of your survival is very slim. Because
  243. 10:01you have many problems and challenges.
  244. 10:04Storms, waves, winds, hurricanes,
  245. 10:05tsunamis. And then food, water, and
  246. 10:08fishing. And then fighting
  247. 10:09hallucinations and madness. All of this
  248. 10:12shows that the probability of your
  249. 10:15survival while lost at sea is very slim
  250. 10:17. We knew that human history began in
  251. 10:25Africa. Unfortunately, the first
  252. 10:27beginning of human history was in
  253. 10:29Africa. Then with time, early humans
  254. 10:31would quickly realize that Africa is
  255. 10:33not the best home. And there, they
  256. 10:35would decide to migrate from it. And
  257. 10:36they would expand to the rest of the
  258. 10:38world's continents. Any corner in the
  259. 10:39world, as long as it's not Africa. And
  260. 10:41of course, the migration was a land
  261. 10:42migration on solid ground. On foot,
  262. 10:45barefoot. Because we are talking about
  263. 10:47hundreds of thousands of years. Their
  264. 10:49minds were blank; they had no means of
  265. 10:50transportation. Human expansion began
  266. 10:53from Africa. They traveled by land,
  267. 10:55reaching Asia, and finally Europe. This
  268. 10:58. The entire migration was by land.
  269. 11:01Ancient humans never approached the sea
  270. 11:03at all. They didn't have the necessary
  271. 11:05capabilities to sail. And here is a
  272. 11:08very important and difficult question.
  273. 11:10Ancient humans lived on all continents.
  274. 11:13The question is, how did ancient humans
  275. 11:16reach the North and South American
  276. 11:18continents? How did they manage it? How
  277. 11:20did they cover all this distance? By
  278. 11:22what means did they even cross this
  279. 11:24distance? How did they even know of
  280. 11:26this continent's existence? Where did
  281. 11:28they see it? How did they know about it
  282. 11:29? Knowing that human traces, bones, and
  283. 11:32skulls have been found on the North and
  284. 11:34South American continents. They are
  285. 11:36hundreds of thousands of years old,
  286. 11:38meaning they are very ancient. How
  287. 11:40could humans reach this continent? Even
  288. 11:43we ourselves only discovered this
  289. 11:45continent recently by mistake and
  290. 11:47chance. How did ancient humans know of
  291. 11:50its existence and manage to reach it?
  292. 11:53This matter involves a dangerous twist
  293. 11:55that humans carried out in ancient
  294. 11:56times. We will discuss and delve into
  295. 11:59this in a video dedicated to it.
  296. 12:01Ancient humans started in Africa, then
  297. 12:03Asia, then Europe. Eventually reaching
  298. 12:06North and South America. One continent
  299. 12:09remained, which is Australia or the
  300. 12:11continent of Oceania. To reach it, they
  301. 12:14had to cross the sea. This was the
  302. 12:17first giant maritime voyage in human
  303. 12:20history. The oldest human traces found
  304. 12:23in Oceania or Australia were stone
  305. 12:25weapons and axes. Which were 65,000
  306. 12:28years old. This means that 65,000 years
  307. 12:32ago at least, humans made a massive
  308. 12:34maritime voyage. And traveled all this
  309. 12:38distance to reach this continent, which
  310. 12:40they didn't even know existed. And this
  311. 12:43is a maritime adventure. Not easy at
  312. 12:45all. It requires experience, navigation
  313. 12:48, and even maritime equipment. So how
  314. 12:50did they do it 65,000 years ago? The
  315. 12:54human relationship with the sea is
  316. 12:56strong and deep-rooted. The sea has
  317. 12:58always served as the greatest source of
  318. 13:00food for humans. Humans have always
  319. 13:03known the dangers of the sea. But they
  320. 13:05had no choice. They had no other option
  321. 13:07. Actually, at that time, there was no
  322. 13:09choice. They didn't know what a "choice
  323. 13:10" was, so to speak. But even so, humans
  324. 13:12were cautious. They needed the sea, but
  325. 13:14were afraid of it. That is why they
  326. 13:16would get close, then retreat quickly.
  327. 13:18But over time, unfortunately, humans
  328. 13:21began to lose their caution. And they
  329. 13:23stopped being as careful. And this is
  330. 13:25exactly where humans began to trust the
  331. 13:27sea. And the disasters began. The
  332. 13:32relationship between humans and the sea
  333. 13:33was no longer limited to food. It
  334. 13:35became a commercial relationship. The
  335. 13:37number of ships is rising. The number
  336. 13:40of fishermen is rising. The number of
  337. 13:42voyages is rising. And even the number
  338. 13:45of casualties is rising. And the number
  339. 13:47reaches into the millions. This will
  340. 13:49make the sea the largest human
  341. 13:51graveyard. And the difficult problem is
  342. 13:55not always due to the fierce and wild
  343. 13:57sea waves. But the sea is terrifying to
  344. 14:00a certain degree. Something tiny, small
  345. 14:02like you, can send you to your doom.
  346. 14:05And here we have the example of the
  347. 14:07silent killer. A small, simple killer,
  348. 14:09but it has claimed millions of victims.
  349. 14:13And this killer is—brace yourself—
  350. 14:15Vitamin C. Impossible, that can't be
  351. 14:18true. This gentleman says that between
  352. 14:211500 and 1800, sailors who died from
  353. 14:24Vitamin C deficiency are estimated at
  354. 14:26two million victims. In 1747, Scottish
  355. 14:29doctor James Lind took 12 sailors and
  356. 14:32divided them into groups. He gave each
  357. 14:35group a specific treatment. The group
  358. 14:38that recovered the fastest was the one
  359. 14:41that was taking lemons and oranges. And
  360. 14:44this is because of the Vitamin C found
  361. 14:46in abundance in lemons. Just to show
  362. 14:48you how terrifying the sea is, a simple
  363. 14:50Vitamin C deficiency finished off many
  364. 14:52people. We haven't even talked about
  365. 14:54the waves, storms, currents, and the
  366. 14:56depths of the sea. The sea is not what
  367. 14:58you imagine it to be. The sea is truly
  368. 15:01terrifying. Terrifying sea storms,
  369. 15:04giant waves, hurricanes, and powerful
  370. 15:06winds. But the real horror is the
  371. 15:10whirlpools—the maelstroms. These
  372. 15:13whirlpools were the cause of the
  373. 15:14sinking of thousands of ships. The
  374. 15:17largest whirlpool recorded in history
  375. 15:18is the Old Sow. And imagine with me how
  376. 15:21large its diameter was. It was 76
  377. 15:24meters. That means a whirlpool as big
  378. 15:28as a Boeing 747 or larger than an
  379. 15:31Airbus A380, and despite all this, man
  380. 15:34won't be deterred. No, he needs to be
  381. 15:37deterred. Humans, by nature, are crazy
  382. 15:39about adventure, challenges, and even
  383. 15:41action. Man's relationship with the sea
  384. 15:43is a massive one. The maritime
  385. 15:46transport and container sector employs
  386. 15:48approximately 1,890,000 sailors. And
  387. 15:51more than 74,000 transport ships are
  388. 15:53operating within it. Almost all human
  389. 15:56industries are transported via the sea.
  390. 16:00To such a degree, imagine that all the
  391. 16:02household furniture you have in your
  392. 16:03home was likely at sea one day and
  393. 16:05transported across it. And let me add,
  394. 16:08if you are watching me on TV, then
  395. 16:10likely this TV was once in the depths
  396. 16:12of the sea. Just to show you to what
  397. 16:14extent the sea is considered an
  398. 16:16excellent means of transport. Anything
  399. 16:18in your house, right and left, has a
  400. 16:20high probability of having been
  401. 16:22transported by sea. Besides transport
  402. 16:24and goods, the sea is also considered
  403. 16:26the largest source of nutrition.
  404. 16:27Thousands of fishing vessels enter the
  405. 16:29sea every single day. Millions of
  406. 16:31fishermen enter the sea every day. But
  407. 16:34unfortunately, the number of fishermen
  408. 16:37entering the sea is not the same as the
  409. 16:39number of fishermen leaving it. In 1999
  410. 16:42, the International Labour Organization
  411. 16:45estimated about 24,000 fishermen die at
  412. 16:48sea. And the problem is this number is
  413. 16:51on the rise. In 2019, it reached 32,000
  414. 16:55victims. And more recently, the number
  415. 16:59will continue to grow and exceed
  416. 17:00100,000 fisherman victims at sea, which
  417. 17:03is equivalent to 3,000 fishermen dying
  418. 17:05at sea every day. As for illegal
  419. 17:08migration, the numbers are terrifying.
  420. 17:11Just recently in 2025, the estimated
  421. 17:13number was 33,000 migrant victims in
  422. 17:16the Mediterranean Sea alone. And the
  423. 17:19number could be even higher, because
  424. 17:20there is great secrecy regarding this
  425. 17:22information; they don't want to
  426. 17:24disclose the real figures. And the
  427. 17:25stories of migrants who get lost at sea
  428. 17:28are very painful stories. And every
  429. 17:30boat lost at sea, with high probability
  430. 17:32, all the migrants end up as victims.
  431. 17:35The sea is truly terrifying, and the
  432. 17:37people who work in it daily are the
  433. 17:39ones who know its truth. These people
  434. 17:41have very difficult jobs, and they stay
  435. 17:43at sea for long months. The sea causes
  436. 17:46hallucinations and brain dysfunction if
  437. 17:48you aren't disciplined and mentally
  438. 17:50strong. Even though science and
  439. 17:53technology are developing, the victims
  440. 17:55and human losses at sea keep increasing
  441. 17:58. What happens to you in the first few
  442. 18:05minutes when you realize you are lost
  443. 18:07at sea? Your greatest enemy is not
  444. 18:09hunger, nor thirst, nor the tiger shark
  445. 18:11. The greatest enemy you face is your
  446. 18:14own mind. Your mind, or the human mind
  447. 18:16in general, has an imaginary power. It
  448. 18:18could convince you that you are ruling
  449. 18:20the world and make you rule it. And it
  450. 18:22could convince you that you are the
  451. 18:24biggest failure and make you die in an
  452. 18:25instant. Once your mind knows you are
  453. 18:27lost at sea, it starts bombarding you
  454. 18:29with thoughts. Dark thoughts; it
  455. 18:30doesn't bring you any positive ideas.
  456. 18:32For example: you're done for, they'll
  457. 18:34never find you, and your death is
  458. 18:36guaranteed, no exceptions. Here, your
  459. 18:38greatest strength becomes your greatest
  460. 18:40enemy, making you die in your mind
  461. 18:42before you die in reality. Sailor José
  462. 18:44and his companion Ezequiel Córdoba
  463. 18:46both went through the same conditions.
  464. 18:48Both were in the same boat. Both ate
  465. 18:51the same food. Both drank animal blood.
  466. 18:54Both suffered from malnutrition, and
  467. 18:55both suffered from dehydration. But one
  468. 18:58of them lived and endured for 438 days.
  469. 19:01And one couldn't even last 30 days and
  470. 19:04died. Did he die of hunger? No. Did he
  471. 19:06die thirsty? No. Did he die of fatigue?
  472. 19:09No. But he died in his mind. His mind
  473. 19:11couldn't handle the situation. He
  474. 19:13couldn't handle the pressure. He
  475. 19:14couldn't cope mentally. He lost the
  476. 19:17challenge psychologically. In the end,
  477. 19:18he died in his mind before he died in
  478. 19:21his body. A prisoner was sentenced to
  479. 19:23death. On the day of the execution,
  480. 19:25they decided to try a new method of
  481. 19:27execution. A painless method, and the
  482. 19:29prisoner agreed. They brought him, tied
  483. 19:31him up, and blindfolded him. They stuck
  484. 19:33a needle in his hand. They began to
  485. 19:36drain his blood drop by drop. With
  486. 19:38every drop that dripped onto his hand
  487. 19:39and fell to the floor, he felt it. He
  488. 19:41felt its warmth and heard its sound.
  489. 19:43They kept draining the blood drop by
  490. 19:45drop until he lost consciousness. A few
  491. 19:47minutes later, his heart stopped, and
  492. 19:50he died. But the surprise is that they
  493. 19:54hadn't drawn a single drop of his blood
  494. 19:56. All the drops were just warm water.
  495. 19:59And the prisoner believed it was his
  496. 20:01own blood. And after a short time, he
  497. 20:04died. The prisoner actually died
  498. 20:06without them ever touching him. Without
  499. 20:07them even coming near him, he lost
  500. 20:09consciousness, his heart stopped, and
  501. 20:10he died because of a thought in his
  502. 20:12mind. This story shows the power of the
  503. 20:14mind. It can convince you of anything.
  504. 20:16You might believe anything. It can make
  505. 20:19you imagine you are dying now, and you
  506. 20:20actually die right then. The mind has
  507. 20:22terrible power. That is why I told you
  508. 20:25your first enemy at sea is your mind.
  509. 20:27You must know how to control it in the
  510. 20:29first few minutes. Otherwise, you are
  511. 20:30guaranteeing your own death. And this
  512. 20:33mind is the greatest challenge any
  513. 20:35person lost at sea faces. If you don't
  514. 20:38control your mind, after a short while,
  515. 20:40you'll go see your grandma who died in
  516. 20:412001; only after you control your mind
  517. 20:43can we move to the next task. This is a
  518. 20:46difficult task, but not harder than
  519. 20:47controlling the mind. There is a rule
  520. 20:49called the Rule of Threes. Three
  521. 20:51minutes without air. Three hours
  522. 20:53without shelter. Three days without
  523. 20:55water. Three weeks without food. Three
  524. 20:58minutes without air is the maximum
  525. 21:00average time a human can endure without
  526. 21:02breathing. If you are drowning at sea
  527. 21:05and don't know how to swim, you have
  528. 21:07three minutes to find something to hold
  529. 21:08onto. In case you don't find anything
  530. 21:12to hold onto, after a short while
  531. 21:13you'll go see your grandma; you
  532. 21:15probably missed her, you rascal. When
  533. 21:18you find something to hold onto—a
  534. 21:20ship, a piece of wood, a boat, or a
  535. 21:22raft—then the phase of searching for
  536. 21:23food and water begins. And here, you
  537. 21:26don't have many options. You have one
  538. 21:28option, which is fishing at sea: fish,
  539. 21:30squid, turtles, and you'll eat them raw
  540. 21:32. As for water, you have two choices:
  541. 21:35either rainwater or drinking animal
  542. 21:37blood. As for drinking seawater, it is
  543. 21:40not an option at all. It's off the
  544. 21:43table, strictly forbidden. And I will
  545. 21:45tell you why. Seawater has
  546. 21:47approximately 35 grams of salt in every
  547. 21:51liter. That means 3.5%salt. The human
  548. 21:56kidney, our kidney, cannot filter water
  549. 21:58with more than a 2%salt concentration.
  550. 22:02In other words, for every liter of
  551. 22:04water you drink from the sea, your body
  552. 22:06loses a liter and a half of water. In
  553. 22:09short, your body will lose a lot of
  554. 22:11water to filter the little water you
  555. 22:13drank. It’s a bad deal, a failed
  556. 22:16business. You drink a liter of water
  557. 22:18and consume a liter and a half. You're
  558. 22:20not doing well. Wait, wait, wait—a
  559. 22:21little trick. We caught you. We are
  560. 22:24educated people and we know that
  561. 22:26seagulls drink seawater and nothing
  562. 22:28happens to them. Why? Are you trying to
  563. 22:31lie to us? Seagulls do indeed drink
  564. 22:33seawater. But this bird has salt glands
  565. 22:37above its eyes. Their role is to
  566. 22:39extract and expel salt from its body.
  567. 22:41And humans don't have this technique.
  568. 22:43In short, seawater is not fit for
  569. 22:45drinking. No exceptions here. If you
  570. 22:47want to drink it, go ahead, God help
  571. 22:49you, but take responsibility. Haste
  572. 22:50brings regret, and patience brings
  573. 22:52safety. Let's assume, sir, you've
  574. 22:54controlled your mind. You have food,
  575. 22:56you have drink, you have fish—you
  576. 22:58have everything. You still have one big
  577. 23:01, difficult challenge: hallucinations.
  578. 23:06The problem that occurs to cause
  579. 23:08hallucinations is very simple. In short
  580. 23:10, the view you see in front of you is
  581. 23:12the same view you see behind you. The
  582. 23:13same view to the right and left; there
  583. 23:16is no difference at all. It's as if
  584. 23:18space-time has stopped. The same view
  585. 23:19you see today, you will see tomorrow,
  586. 23:22next week, and next month, until you
  587. 23:24see your grandma who died in 2001; when
  588. 23:26you are lost at sea, the probability of
  589. 23:28help arriving is very low.
  590. 23:30Mathematically and statistically, it's
  591. 23:31almost non-existent, except in one case
  592. 23:33. No, help arrived early. When you go
  593. 23:37missing at sea, your family must notify
  594. 23:39the authorities, emergency services,
  595. 23:41and maritime police to come and rescue
  596. 23:42you as quickly as possible. Time is
  597. 23:45very important and sensitive. Every
  598. 23:47second that passes, the probability of
  599. 23:49being found decreases further. This is
  600. 23:52calculated mathematically. When you
  601. 23:53first go missing at sea, they know your
  602. 23:56approximate location. But as seconds
  603. 23:58and minutes pass, the circle of
  604. 24:00probability widens and grows. And the
  605. 24:03chance of finding you decreases. In
  606. 24:051992, a massive container ship carrying
  607. 24:0828,000 rubber ducks. This container
  608. 24:12sank into the sea. All the ducks were
  609. 24:14cast into the ocean. But the surprise
  610. 24:17was that all the ducks dispersed across
  611. 24:18the ocean. Every duck headed in a
  612. 24:20different direction. And they ended up
  613. 24:22on a variety of. Different coastlines
  614. 24:24around the world. 28,000 ducks, each
  615. 24:26one went in a different direction. Even
  616. 24:29though all these ducks were in one area
  617. 24:31. Yet each duck went to a specific spot
  618. 24:33. This means it is very difficult for
  619. 24:36rescuers to predict your location.
  620. 24:38Because the sea will take you in a
  621. 24:40completely random direction. No human
  622. 24:42can accurately predict your location.
  623. 24:45Imagine yourself as a tiny speck in the
  624. 24:48middle of a vast ocean. By rough
  625. 24:50proportion, a person in the middle of
  626. 24:52the ocean is like a grain of sand. In
  627. 24:58the middle of a football stadium. This
  628. 25:01is a misconception that many people get
  629. 25:03wrong. Because mathematical calculation
  630. 25:05and proportions yield a different
  631. 25:07result. A person in the middle of the
  632. 25:09ocean is like a grain of sand inside.
  633. 25:1520,000 football stadiums. I tell you,
  634. 25:24finding it is near impossible. The same
  635. 25:27principle applies to a person lost at
  636. 25:29sea. It is nearly impossible to find
  637. 25:31them unless you know their likely
  638. 25:33location to narrow the search radius.
  639. 25:35Without that probability, it is very
  640. 25:37difficult and nearly impossible to be
  641. 25:39found at sea. Of course, it is nearly
  642. 25:41impossible, not absolutely impossible.
  643. 25:43Because many people have been found at
  644. 25:46sea and rescued. But the mathematical
  645. 25:48odds are very slim. So far in this
  646. 25:54video, about 20 minutes have passed.
  647. 25:57This means from the first second you
  648. 25:59started the video until this minute, 10
  649. 26:01people in the world have drowned. Every
  650. 26:04single hour, more than 30 people drown
  651. 26:06in the world. Meaning, in this video
  652. 26:09from start to now, 10 people in the
  653. 26:10world have drowned. The number is very
  654. 26:12terrifying. Unfortunately, most victims
  655. 26:15of the sea are from poor countries.
  656. 26:17They are the people most likely to get
  657. 26:19lost and drown at sea. From migration
  658. 26:22to fishing without safety or protection
  659. 26:25. That is why most victims are from
  660. 26:27Africa and poor nations. But the
  661. 26:30biggest killers are small boats and
  662. 26:31skiffs. Four out of five victims are in
  663. 26:35small boats. 76%of victims die due to
  664. 26:38getting lost and drowning at sea. The
  665. 26:41overwhelming majority, 99%of victims
  666. 26:44who get lost and drown at sea, are men,
  667. 26:47not women. Even when tourist and
  668. 26:50recreational ships sink, when rescue
  669. 26:52operations begin, they prioritize women
  670. 26:54and children. They have priority before
  671. 26:57they move on to the men. In summary,
  672. 26:59the sea is vast, wide, and very huge.
  673. 27:02The chance of encountering a ship or
  674. 27:04boat to rescue you is very slim. So
  675. 27:06often, you have to save yourself on
  676. 27:07your own. This is what makes the
  677. 27:10probability of survival very low and
  678. 27:12slim. Brothers and sisters,
  679. 27:21unfortunately, we've reached the end of
  680. 27:22the video. I hope you enjoyed the
  681. 27:24concept. I thought of this idea in the
  682. 27:26last video I posted for you, where the
  683. 27:28six students got lost at sea. But they
  684. 27:30managed to reach land and save
  685. 27:31themselves. That's why I thought of
  686. 27:34this concept of survival probability at
  687. 27:36sea while facing the greatest enemy at
  688. 27:38sea. Which is the hallucinations that
  689. 27:40the six students didn't suffer from
  690. 27:41because there were six of them to keep
  691. 27:43each other company. So it was necessary
  692. 27:46to make this video to study the
  693. 27:47probabilities of survival at sea and
  694. 27:48show you that the chance is very small.
  695. 27:51That’s it, I hope you liked the
  696. 27:53concept. Drop a like and subscribe to
  697. 27:55the channel. Bye-bye. And peace be upon
  698. 28:00you. Bye-bye, brothers. Bye-bye, peace
  699. 28:02be upon you. Peace be upon you, bye-bye
  700. 28:04.
