If those stranded seamen didn’t believe in God,I bet they do now!
It took 80 airmen and 4 aircraft? Seems a bit extreme, but I admit to ignorance about the “rescues at sea” subject matter.
I read where, after a tornado wrecked a house, the rescue team worked dug through the debris, found the cellar door, opened it and saw an old guy standing there. They asked him if there was anyone else with him. He replied, "Just me and Jesus."
