73. Searching Blind: Ben James

RNLI 200 Voices

About this episode

How do you search for someone in the middle of the sea in the middle of the night? We asked Tenby lifeboat crew member, Ben James

Research has shown that when one of our senses is compromised, others become more heightened. Tenby crew member Ben James talks about the challenges of finding someone at night, and about how the kit that crews rely on includes eyes and ears adjusting to the inky blackness.
