GERMAN DEEP SEA FISHERMEN: A tough job at the limit! Extreme fishing off Greenland WELT HD DOCUMENTARY (reupload) German deep sea trawlers in action - The battle against weather and time The hunt for the black halibut takes German deep sea fishing as far as West Greenland. Crews work around the clock in temperatures well below zero and stormy seas. Specially built ships like the trawler "Mark" transport over 1000 tons of fish and brave waves that can be up to 18 meters high. But even the most modern technology is no guarantee: nets that get caught in propellers can paralyze operations and pose high risks. Highly mechanized fishing on the North Atlantic A factory on board the "Mark" processes the catch directly - from removing the heads to packaging. Precise cuts, so-called Japanese cuts, are crucial for the demanding markets in Asia. Faulty goods or technical failures not only endanger the success of the mission, but also the reputation of the crew. A special highlight: Even at -30 degrees in the cold storage rooms, the work runs smoothly. Danger and community Working on deep-sea trawlers requires mental and physical strength. Camaraderie is crucial, because small mistakes can have fatal consequences. Despite all adversities, the "Mark" and its crew also managed a forced break in Greenland and completed their mission with a full catch quota - a testament to the toughness and professionalism of German deep-sea fishing. #deepseafisherman #documentary #documentation 🔵 WELT DOKU YouTube Channel / weltdoku 🔵 The WELT news livestream / @weltvideotv 🔵 WELT Podcasts YouTube Channel / weltpodcast 🔵 WELT news channel YouTube Channel / weltvideotv 🔵 WELT Netzreporter YouTube Channel / dienetzreporter 🔵 The top news on WELT.de http://bit.ly/2rQQD9Q 🔵 The media library on WELT.de http://bit.ly/2Iydxv8 🔵 WELT news channel on Instagram https://bit.ly/IGWELTTV 🔵 WELT on Instagram http://bit.ly/2X1M7Hk
