15-Year-Old Alaskan Boy Miraculously Survives Days at Sea After Boat Capsizes: Video
- A 15-year-old Alaskan boy named Derek Parker survived for days in the frigid Bering Sea clinging to an overturned boat near St. Lawrence Island.
- Derek went fishing with his 35-year-old sibling Sidney Kulowiyi and their cousin, but the boat never returned as planned, leading to a search by Alaska State Troopers, the Coast Guard, and the Alaska Air National Guard.
- Poor visibility delayed the rescue mission until weather improved, when Coast Guard crews found Derek about four miles east of St. Lawrence Island and rescued him.
- Derek's older brother, cousin, and the boat’s captain drowned during the incident according to Derek's mother, and the reason why the boat capsized remains unclear.
