Sig Hansen has been a captain on 'Deadliest Catch' since its first season in 2005, and he says that keeping his crew alive and motivated has been a challenge over the last 19 years.
Sig Hansen has seen a consistent challenge over the past 20 seasons as captain on 'Deadliest Catch.' In an interview with Fox News Digital, Hansen explained that although the crew face many challenges while on the Bering Sea, the weather is a constant struggle for members on board. 'I mean, there's always a challenge. The challenge is to succeed, right?' Hansen said. 'There are life-threatening situations – been in a few of those.
Hansen explained that the reason 'Deadliest Catch' has been so successful is because it's multi-generational, despite the fact that it was never intended to be a show for the entire family. 'Number one, It's blue collar and there's a work ethic and I think people respect that.
Now I feel like that show is on autopilot,' he said. 'What goes through my mind is like, you take some things for granted. I know that's not just me, but everybody takes it for granted because they're supposed to be there.' He echoed his earlier sentiment that 'Deadliest Catch' has become a show for all generations over the years.
Fans can catch Sig and the 'Deadliest Catch' crew navigating the Bering Sea for the 20th season on Discovery Channel starting June 11.
