00:00Antarctica. The conflict between the environmental organization Sea Shepherd and the Japanese whalers is escalating.
00:15The conservation crew consists entirely of volunteers and is led by Captain Paul Watson.
00:21They fight against a group of Japanese whalers hunting in the Southern Ocean.
00:27The Sea Shepherds believe that Japanese whalers are violating the international whaling ban.
00:35They, in turn, claim that they are only collecting samples for scientific purposes.
00:39Both parties feel they are in the right and push themselves to the limit, even if it could cost them their lives.
00:48Last time at Whale Wars.
00:51Without the niches, their season is over.
00:55Damn.
00:57They obviously killed whales.
00:59This has to stop.
01:02Let's find them.
01:04The niches could be anywhere.
01:08Looks like a ship.
01:13We have the niches. Now let's get started.
01:17We were overjoyed. Finding niches is the main goal of the campaign.
01:34Like an old friend you don't particularly like.
01:36After more than two months, the Sea Shepherds finally have the whaling fleet's factory ship in sight.
01:45Now they can devote themselves to their actual task.
01:48With the Steve Irwin still in port and the Bob Barker 40 nautical miles away, the Gojira crew must hold the position until reinforcements arrive.
02:03Is the blood on the sides?
02:10Where? The hoses on the side?
02:15They are currently processing whales.
02:20The blood comes from a whale that had been killed shortly before.
02:27Blood from the flens deck flows through the openings on the side of the Nischenmaru.
02:31Over the years, almost 10,000 whales were butchered and processed there.
02:35We're determined to stop these guys. Their slaughterhouse is right in front of us.
02:55There's no net above the flens deck. We could hit it from above.
03:01Do you have enough ammunition?
03:02Yes, butyric acid.
03:05The crew wants to try to spoil the whale meat on deck with the foul-smelling liquid.
03:17The Yushins suddenly seem very small. Now things have to move quickly.
03:22Stopping an 8,000-ton ship with a 45-ton ship requires absolute determination.
03:31David versus Goliath.
03:32David versus Goliath.
03:35Where did it go? It didn't work.
03:52Get closer and shoot accurately.
04:09A little slower.
04:11This is your chance.
04:25Great shot!
04:29Over to the flensing deck. There they process the meat, which is hopefully now spoiled.
04:33Hopefully it takes the peace.
04:38Yes!
04:40Now we're on.
04:41Woohoo!
04:43Woohoo!
04:43The world is a vampire sent to drain Secret destroyers Hold you up to the flames
05:00And what do I get for my pain?
05:06Yeah!
05:08Yeah!
05:09The spider of the rage, are you still just ready to pay?
05:15The spider of the rage, are you still just ready to pay?
05:19Yeah!
05:19Yeah!
05:20After eight weeks, the Sea Shepherds finally managed to locate the factory ship of the Japanese whaling fleet.
05:38Currently, only the Gojira is on site. But their efforts are already effective.
05:50There are whales near the factory ship. We're sure to save some lives today.
06:05Minke whales are very curious and come close to the ships.
06:08But probably a few have been torn from their herd in the last few days, because these ones seem to be fleeing.
06:13Captain McLean concludes from the whales' behavior that the harpoon ships are nearby.
06:23Last year they came a little too close to the Sea Shepherds.
06:27Therefore, the crew of the Gojira fears that the harpoon ships will soon appear to protect their mothership.
06:46The harpoon ships will be very aggressive. And we'll be facing three huge steel ships in a fiberglass ship.
06:56It's sure to be tough. But we'll try to hold our ground.
07:002400 kilometers north, the Steve Irwin's refueling has been successfully completed.
07:23The crew must now hurry to get to the Nishinmaru as quickly as possible.
07:30It was nice to hear they found her. Now we can't lose her again.
07:46Security expert Jeff Milstein used his time in port to obtain a special grenade launcher that he intends to use against the factory ship.
07:55I work as a port agent in the Port of New York and New Jersey.
08:05The self-constructed device can fire six bottles of butyric acid in just a few seconds.
08:10It's fun. But the most important thing is that we're ending whaling.
08:26While the crew makes final preparations, Captain Watson calculates the route to meet the Gojira and the Nishinmaru as quickly as possible.
08:34Right over there is the Getz Shelf ice cream.
08:41This year, ice conditions are worse than ever. This could slow the Gojira down.
08:50Unfortunately, the Steve Irwin still needs about five days to reach the whaling fleet's factory ship.
08:55The Bob Barker is only 40 nautical miles away, but it has a hard time keeping up with the Nishinmaru.
09:01Full speed ahead. Two hours to Nishinmaru?
09:07Probably a little more.
09:11We're trying to catch up with the Nishinmaru because the Gojira doesn't have an ice class.
09:16If the factory ship runs into the ice, it is extremely difficult to track it further.
09:22But they don't know that we are very close.
09:28Surprise!
09:31I was hesitant because you shouldn't count your chicks before they hatch.
09:38The Nishinmaru could still escape.
09:45At the moment it is up to the Gojira alone to prevent the 8,000-ton ship from escaping.
09:54We're going in front of their bow and doing everything we can to stop them.
10:06We're slowing them down now.
10:07The 8000 ton ship is like a steam locomotive competing against a 45 ton ship.
10:22But I didn't see it that way.
10:27We were ready for anything.
10:29I'm so excited I can't think straight.
10:45Now the slingshot.
10:46Higher!
11:01They don't stop for anyone.
11:06Too much shouting on deck.
11:13You're way too nervous.
11:15Simon and Benno should please calm down.
11:18Don't shout at each other.
11:20Stay calm, okay?
11:23Understood.
11:23The factory ship is still traveling at full speed towards the pack ice.
11:36So it's time for a new plan.
11:42We shoot butyric acid into their air intake on the chimney.
11:45Try that.
11:46Directly under the black chimney.
11:56If we get butyric acid in there, the ship will smell wonderful for the next month and a half.
12:00Okay, let's do this.
12:05Here we go.
12:15Yeah!
12:16Good shot.
12:20We shot butyric acid into the air intake for their quarters.
12:28You stinking election catchers!
12:31You can smell the butyric acid.
12:34Like Luke Skywalker shooting at the hole in the Death Star.
12:43Psychological warfare.
12:46Wait, they've changed course.
12:52Black Rau, they're stepping on the gas.
12:55You are heading southeast.
12:57Towards ice.
13:00The Nishimaru sets course for a vast ice field 30 nautical miles away.
13:05The Gojira cannot follow her there due to her fragile outer shell.
13:16Its top speed is similar to that of the Bob Barker.
13:20So we have to slow them down somehow before they hit the ice.
13:23Let's see what happens.
13:24How is this possible?
13:32A few days ago, the whalers surprised the Sea Shepherds with a trip into the ice.
13:41Environmentalists suspect that the whalers want to shake them off again in the ice.
13:46We need the Bob.
13:58How far away are you?
14:02Quite far.
14:0238 nautical miles.
14:08The Nishim is currently turning to port at 15 knots.
14:13Are they driving into the ice?
14:15Yes, they are changing course and going full throttle.
14:21We are grateful for every maneuver that slows her down.
14:23The Gojira must stop them before they reach the ice.
14:34That's what I was afraid of. We need to get there as soon as possible.
14:44They drive straight towards the ice.
14:47We have to do something.
14:48The Gojira was not built for these conditions and cannot follow the Nishinmaru into the ice.
14:58Therefore, the crew must try by all means to hold off the whalers until the Bob Barker catches up.
15:08What do you need?
15:10A towline.
15:12We can't lose her before the Bob Barker gets here, okay?
15:15The crew prepares a prop fowler for the factory ship.
15:23We threw everything we had on deck.
15:27The only thing that can help with this thing is a prop fowler.
15:32Just a few days ago, the Sea Shepherds were able to disable the Yushinmaru 3 with a Prop Fowler.
15:38The ship then drifted motionless in the water for several days.
15:43John, are you ready?
15:44Ready?
15:44Yes.
15:51We cross her bow.
16:03I've never been this close to such a big ship.
16:09It would have simply crushed us if we had made one wrong move.
16:14I could touch her.
16:20Abnormally close.
16:22There comes this huge ship shooting towards you.
16:28It was like looking down the barrel of a gun.
16:30It was like looking down the barrel of a gun.
16:32We have to get the leash under there.
16:51She's in.
16:54She's in.
17:00So far, the Sea Shepherds have always tried to cast the line in front of the bow of the ship so that it floats in the water.
17:06But this time we simply towed it behind us, so that the prop fowler ran along the center of the bottom of the ship.
17:12The Sea Shepherds hope that this will make it easier for the rope to catch on the ship's propeller and paralyze the Nishimaru.
17:23I hope it works.
17:27Will it hold?
17:28Yes, that's fixed.
17:29We want to stop these guys once and for all.
17:59Now the crew has to wait and see if the Prop Fowler has any effect.
18:18They get faster.
18:22The Nishimaru's propeller was not affected by the line.
18:26The factory ship continues to move at full speed towards the ice.
18:31This is quite frustrating.
18:34The leash will definitely do the trick.
18:36The question is whether they will slow down in time so that the Bob Barker can catch up.
18:40The Nishimaru tore a 200-meter-long line from our deck.
18:56Have they slowed down?
18:59Not yet.
19:01The sooner you come, the better.
19:02Have you caught up yet?
19:06No, we have actually fallen further behind.
19:14We really have to step on the gas.
19:20One more hour and they'll be in the ice.
19:22The Bob Barker is still 30 nautical miles behind the factory ship, which is trying to break into the ice.
19:35Time is slowly running out at Sea Shepherds.
19:38Another 30 nautical miles and we'll be in the ice.
19:41There's a lot on the horizon.
19:48Where?
19:54That's right, there's an ice rink.
19:59We have to stop the boys before we reach the ice rink.
20:02This is exactly the place you don't want to be in a fiberglass boat.
20:15One iceberg and we'll all go swimming.
20:21This is really dangerous.
20:26Another propfowler?
20:29Absolutely.
20:29But we need the lines in the harbor.
20:33Doesn't matter.
20:36Captain McLean decides to use all the lines and chains on board to stop the massive factory ship of the Japanese whaling fleet.
20:47Do we have another chain?
20:5140 meters.
20:53Then cut off 10 meters of it.
20:55Can we get to the screw with this?
21:00Yes, we'll take the anchor line.
21:04The bob is too far away, we have to slow it down.
21:07If we lose the ship, we won't find it so easily.
21:09We take 10 meters of the anchor line and together with the rest we try to cause as much damage as possible.
21:22I said, make a leash, no matter how.
21:31Now we have used all the lines and chains available on board.
21:34In the harbor we have to be creative when mooring because there isn't a single long line left.
21:38How far are you?
21:43We are ready.
21:46I drive to the Nischin and then off I go.
21:48We stop Goliath.
22:13She's doing something.
22:14She goes down.
22:24Well, do you like that?
22:29You can really feel it.
22:31Out of the way, Dave.
22:48Pretty close.
22:57We have them.
23:00One hundred percent.
23:01The leash will do the trick.
23:20Unfortunately, they still haven't slowed down.
23:24They definitely want to move on.
23:3516 knots.
23:38Even the Gujira's anchor line, which was incorporated into the propfowler, could not impress the Nischinmaru's propeller.
23:46The ice field is only one nautical mile away.
23:49Pretty frustrating.
23:50The Bob is still far behind us.
23:56But there is nothing we can do.
23:58We're slowly running out of time.
24:00They drive into really thick ice.
24:18This looks half broken.
24:22The Gujira is not suitable for these waters.
24:29The ice could easily break through the ship's outer hull.
24:32Nevertheless, Captain McLean decides to risk continuing his journey.
24:38Like a minefield of ice.
24:53We didn't really want to go there.
24:55The icebergs are difficult to see.
25:04In that light you can only see them 30 or 40 meters in front of the ship.
25:10If the boys race onto the ice, the season is over for us.
25:17You hardly see them.
25:20Straight ahead, 100 meters.
25:23That's really cute.
25:35We have to get out of here.
25:42We retreated because the ice is our weak point.
25:47And unfortunately they know that.
25:48Captain McLean doesn't want to give up without a fight.
25:58Therefore, he wants to try to circumnavigate the ice field and catch up with the Nishinmaru behind it.
26:03But this is her last chance.
26:06The Sea Shepherds are on the verge of losing sight of the factory ship for good.
26:10We have to go all the way around.
26:18They know we can't follow them.
26:25Things look good up there.
26:27We're just waiting here for the Nishinmaru.
26:41Jono, take over for a moment.
26:42They aren't really happy to see us.
26:58That thing is pretty big.
27:00They just rush through it.
27:01What are they doing?
27:09They want to ram us.
27:12The Nishinmaru is heading directly towards the Gojira.
27:19Get out of here while you still can.
27:25They have to turn away.
27:28We need flares.
27:33Get out of here!
27:45Good shot.
27:55They can now have a nice barbecue.
27:58This is for the ramming test.
28:15Just barely.
28:19Did you see how they tried to ram us?
28:21They're coming straight towards us.
28:22They turned around at the last moment.
28:30They're not completely tight.
28:34For the Sea Shepherds it is clear that the factory ship attempted to ram the Gojira.
28:39The whalers claim that the environmentalists provoked them by crossing the Nishinmaru's course several times.
28:45The mother ship of the whaling fleet disappears into the ice.
28:56The crew of the Gojira can only watch and hope that the Bob Barker will appear soon.
29:03The Bob gets through there too.
29:04Where is it?
29:12Didn't anyone look at it?
29:16A few seconds ago she was still there.
29:20Do you still see them?
29:23Just barely, but it's hard to see.
29:25It becomes blurrier.
29:37Do you see the Bob?
29:39Keep your eyes open.
29:44We should have seen them by now.
29:52There she is.
29:55Quite clearly.
30:04At the last second the Bob came.
30:07We were really relieved.
30:14These are the masts of the Nishinmaru.
30:25The Nishinmaru is quite slow. We're gaining a lot of ground.
30:45Well, we'll stay in open water for now.
30:47Finally, the Bob Barker can take over the pursuit of the Nishinmaru.
30:54The Gojira is heading north, where the ice is not as dense.
30:58Get them!
30:59Handing over the Nishinmaru to the Bob Barker is great.
31:14The Gojira has fulfilled its mission.
31:17A beautiful day.
31:21The best so far.
31:22We are back.
31:33Now we're going to catch them.
31:38Thanks to the reinforced outer shell, the Bob Barker can plow through the pack ice at full speed.
31:44The crew's plan is to catch up with the Nishinmaru and block its glide path.
31:51We'll have free rein soon.
31:53Then we have them.
31:54This is such a disgusting ship.
31:59It's good that they don't kill whales.
32:04We simply accompany them back to Japan.
32:09We searched for the Nishinmaru for two months.
32:14It's good to finally be behind their glide path.
32:16They must be angry.
32:31What's up north?
32:40A Yushin.
32:46Damn, how fast?
32:5114.1 knots.
32:56In the worst case scenario, the Yushin will ensure that the Nishinmaru can escape somehow.
33:05The Sea Shepherds are directly behind the Nishinmaru's slipway.
33:09But the harpoon ship is getting closer and closer.
33:11It's an old acquaintance.
33:16Is that number two?
33:19No, number three. She has water cannons.
33:23We are a little surprised.
33:27The last time we saw her, she was floating motionless in the water.
33:34They're probably still angry.
33:40The Yushinmaru 3 will surely do everything it can to keep us away from the factory ship.
33:44So we have to keep an eye on them.
33:49Speed?
33:51Ten knots, we eleven.
33:53Should I call Paul?
34:06Have you lost them?
34:07No, we are right behind their glide path.
34:10Do you need our coordinates?
34:11Although the Steve Irwin is currently 2400 kilometers away from the Bob Barker, planning of the route has long since begun.
34:24Where are the others?
34:26The Yushinmaru 3 is behind us.
34:31Is she just following you? And everything else okay?
34:33Yes, it won't escape us.
34:37We'll be there soon.
34:43Have you lost them?
34:47A whale.
34:52A sperm whale.
34:59You can see it at the breathing hole.
35:04When we found the whaling fleet, there were whales everywhere.
35:10The fact that no more animals are killed is a huge success.
35:15That one over there?
35:17Sperm whales were on the verge of extinction because the oily fluid in their heads, the whale bone, could be sold at an extremely high price.
35:28The whaling fleet does not hunt sperm whales in the Southern Ocean.
35:31But in the North Pacific they are officially allowed to kill ten per year.
35:36Many experts believe that it is impossible to save this endangered species from extinction.
35:41I think whaling has no place in the 21st century. It's just so incredibly cruel.
35:51These animals live in family groups. They are intelligent and very social. They suffer just like you and me.
36:00If we weren't here, the Nishinmaru would be returning to Japan with whale meat worth almost 100 million euros.
36:09We're trying to reduce their profits. And that's why it's all the more important that we bring them back to port for good.
36:21200 nautical miles further north, the crew of the Gojira is de-icing the trimaran.
36:25Frozen seawater can pull the pontoons down, and that's not good for stability.
36:33You certainly don’t want to carry any extra weight on the outside cave.
36:37So we make sure that we get the ice off and that it doesn't get stuck.
36:53I've never done that before.
36:55My hands are frozen.
37:14My favorite ice scraper is the spatula because it doesn't scratch the deck.
37:20You can get under the ice sheets and lift them off easily.
37:34Dirt usually turns the vegetables in the pan.
37:38I can't feel my fingers anymore. But it's going great.
37:49Like pinpricks.
38:09Your teeth are cold too.
38:19It's not as smooth as before, but whatever.
38:25You can't leave here without a safety harness. If you fall in, you're done for.
38:32The Yushin Maru 3 is moving.
38:41Oh. Still on the port side.
38:44We'll keep an eye on Yushin in case she does anything stupid.
38:57Are you coming closer?
38:58What are they up to?
39:03The captain of the Yushin Maru 3 is probably angry. So we expect them to behave aggressively.
39:09All windows closed because of the water cannons.
39:17They have water cannons, so we covered the dinghies.
39:21They might also use flash grenades. We're preparing for anything.
39:26They're coming closer. They're moving over to Steierbord.
39:38They're about to try something.
39:43A little faster.
39:47They have a plan. Maybe they want to swindle us.
39:50The Yushin Maru 3 is right behind us. That's why everyone is a little nervous.
39:58Last year they rammed a ship to try to dissuade it from the Nishin Maru.
40:08Both sides blamed each other for the collision.
40:12The whalers claim they were only trying to defend themselves against an attack by the Sea Shepherds.
40:17Environmentalists oppose the decision.
40:20We have a hole on the starboard side.
40:33Do they want to come between us?
40:34They want to ram us.
40:37Get ready.
40:45Captain Cornelison orders the crew to take all protective measures in case of a collision.
40:50When the Yushin is within range, shoot.
40:56The crew members are on alert.
41:03They're pulling something at the rear.
41:05Maybe a whale.
41:07Two years ago, whalers brought whales onto the factory ship despite the presence of environmentalists.
41:23Then another collision occurred.
41:25Is there something on the leash? I think I saw something.
41:39The Sea Shepherds fear that a whale is tied to the side of the harpoon boat.
41:45Did anyone see anything?
41:46There is nothing there.
41:50And they turn away.
41:55Wow.
41:58What are they doing?
41:59Test whether a transfer is possible.
42:03They always come to the starboard side.
42:04That won't happen.
42:12The Yushin Maru 3 wanted to see if it could unload a whale.
42:18How long does it take you?
42:20Not long.
42:22Ten minutes?
42:23Oh, dear God, now.
42:25No, 30 seconds.
42:2730 seconds.
42:39We are waiting for something.
42:43The other harpoon ships are currently hunting.
42:46And after testing whether they can unload a whale, they probably already have one they want to bring here.
42:53On me it's Schneider.
43:01They would certainly like to take advantage of the opportunity.
43:06If a harpoon boat with a whale appears, I will not deviate from our course.
43:12If they want to ram us, fine. We won't evade.
43:15Next time at Whale Wars.
43:24The Chilean Navy will seize the factory ship if it enters Chilean waters.
43:34We tried to keep up with the Yushin Maru. But the weather was an absolute nightmare.
43:40Supposedly the Japanese are ending whaling, but I don't trust them.
43:52Their actions did not fit with this.
43:56They're just making a fool of you.
43:57The Yushin Maru is still here.
44:00They want to trick us.
44:01The Nominke
44:02The rock legends that you are with are to be said goodbye to.
44:08All of these are a bit Ro BT...!
44:10That is still.
