Williams you are a brave man, with 2 life boats at your disposal you didn't use them because you never wanted to leave anyone behind. A true hero and a true colleague we would all want to work with is who you are.
-
these oil companies don't care about anything or anyone... the only thing they care about is the money they make.
-
Mike Williams is tough af. To survive through all of that, you have to be true warrior. A man's Man. God Bless him and his family.
-
Couldnt even imagine myself in that situation. Middle of the night, middle of the ocean, engulfed in flames, explosions all around, and you have to jump 10 stories into the darkness below.. Then you get to relive it over and over in your head. No amount of monetary compensation can make up for that.
-
BP should not be allowed to operate.
-
One of the most compelling examples of Honor Duty and ultimately Survival that I have ever heard of in my lifetime. God Bless this Man
-
God bless Mike Williams. SSOO TRAUMATIC. He tells this better than any book could write it. What a precious soul.
-
Mike I hope you are well. Thank you for sharing this story. I know it was painful to relive during the interview. Bless you and your family.

Exxon Valdez nuts
-
I have not pulled into an Exxon station since.
-
13min in and all I can say is WOW!!🤯
-
The fact that the title of this video is plural shows how negligent this industry really is
-
The first part got me glued! To the screen for like 10 minutes
-
I'm curious why my comment was removed about swimming in the Gulf of Mexico? Other comments were also removed by other people?
-
CEOs, lobbyists, and the higher up will tell you all their work is perfectly safe, for humans and the environment. The actual people who work on the rigs can show you missing fingers, legs, and eyes, and then tell you about the friends they've lost on the job due to the negligence of the higher ups. The lies we have been told over the decades are catching up to us all. If you believe the petro industry is safe, I've got a nice beach side property in Louisiana to sell you, cheap.
-
Well done to the mississipi engineers etc who helped to mop up that oil bubbling up out of the seabed and polluting everything. Too the Taylor company that was a greedy scumbag move on trying not to take responsibility for what you've done.Aye hope those 3 guys make millions from the oil they are collecting and a big THANKYOU for helping to save the environment for everyone,wildlife,fishermen etc everyone that relies on that waterway for their livelihood.
-
First one is the most incredible interview ever.
-
This brings back memories.
-
And there's no doubt, nor wonder why our Native American Indians do NOT want the oil lines running through what land US America has given them, known as Reservations.

SAFE FIRST!!!!!!!!! DAM THE COST!!!!!!!!!!
