69. Nick McCaffrey: 60 Degrees North

from RNLI 200 Voices · host RNLI

Nick McCaffrey – aerial videographer for TV’s Wild Isles – on life at the RNLI’s most northerly lifeboat station Sometimes, the wild weather around the Shetlands is a sight to see, and can make Aith Lifeboat Crew Member Nick McCaffrey feel like he is in the middle of Armageddon. Nick has experienced 100mph winds, and even on a calm, flat day, he warns, it’s easy to get caught out. The weather isn’t the only spectacle though, and sightings of dolphins, basking sharks and even killer whales are not uncommon. Nick’s ‘day job’ as a videographer made him the ideal person to capture the wildlife for David Attenborough’s series, Wild Isles. Let him introduce you to ‘the locals’.  200 Voices is produced by Adventurous Audio for the RNLI    Interview by Adventurous Audio Soundtrack composed and performed by Jon Nicholls    The RNLI is a charity celebrating 200 years of saving lives at sea - find out more at RNLI.org/200
