Scott Thompson, a commercial fisherman, took his boat out on the Santa Barbara Channel around 5 p.m. on Jan. 26. Five hours of swimming later, he wound up on an oil platform with no boat.
Thompson wasn’t fishing that day but, rather, clearing his mind after recently losing a close friend.
Along the way, Thompson was met with a seal, who seemed like a sense of hope at the time. “The seal would go under water and he came up and nudged me,” Thompson told KABC. “Did it know, like hey, this human is in trouble; hey, keep going dude?”TowBoatUS captain Carson Shevitz told CNN Saturday this is one of several platforms off the coast and is lit up during the night.
The platform’s crew helped him up and called the U.S. Coast Guard, Shevitz said. He was then taken to shore and transported to the nearest hospital, where he was treated for hypothermia.
