Forty-foot waves, freezing temperatures and a nearly 100-percent injury rate. Crab fishing off the Alaskan coast on the icy Bering Sea is one of the world's most dangerous jobs. But it's also one of the most lucrative, offering tens of thousands of dollars for a few days' work. Follow one group of ambitious men as they battle harsh conditions and intense competition in the frenzied search for an undersea jackpot. Season 2 (Part 1): The start of king crab season in Dutch Harbor is usually cause for celebration, but with a massive storm moving in and the specter of last year's Big Valley tragedy still lingering, captains and crews are uneasy. Then a rare, calm day on the Bering Sea is interrupted by reports of an approaching storm - boasting 50 mph winds and 30-foot waves. After a hide-and-seek run behind Amak Island to avoid a storm, the Northwestern is back on the crab grounds, pulling big pots and filling its holds - until a broken crane brings them to a halt. Meanwhile, the Time Bandit's Captain Hillstrand relishes his decision to leave early and brave the storm. But, when a rogue wave knocks the Aleutian Ballad on its side, shutting down all power and the boat's engines, the crew must scramble in the dark to avoid disaster.
