We experience these through the eyes of the lifesavers as they must make life-or-death decisions, face fierce conditions and tackle difficult and dangerous situations. But we also see the optimism, passion and courage that is crucial to a successful rescue, and experience the genuine joy felt by the volunteer crews and lifeguards in being a part of something so important.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach remarkable story is one of bravery, jeopardy and an unrelenting commitment to battling the forces of nature and saving every life.

They are ordinary people doing the truly extraordinary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Surviving the Storms, The RNLI takes us on a journey through the world of emergency services on the oceans.
