    SPECIAL: We Thought We Were Dead - The Ice Fisherman Air Rescue

    What started as a normal morning on the ice quickly turned into a life-or-death situation. In this episode, Dave Grey joins us to tell the full story of the ice fishing trip that ended up making national news. What began with calm weather and solid ice turned into chaos when the wind suddenly shifted and a massive sheet of ice broke loose, sending 23 fishermen drifting nearly a kilometer offshore on Lake Huron. With waves crashing into the ice, the wind building fast, and the clock ticking, Dave says they had less than 30 minutes before the ice completely broke apart. Phone calls were made. Goodbyes were said. And for a moment, many believed they weren’t making it home. Dave walks us through the entire experience: the moment they realized something was wrong, the panic spreading across the ice, the terrifying wait for rescue and the unbelievable arrival of the OPP helicopter that ultimately saved their lives. He also addresses the backlash online, the lessons learned and the one decision he says he’ll never repeat again. This is the story you didn’t hear in the news. And if you’ve ever stepped onto a frozen lake… this episode might change how you look at ice forever.
