Video of crew trapped on capsized ship, coast guard rescue operation

South Korea's Coast Guard rescued all 15 crew members of a ferry that capsized during rough weather conditions off the country's southwestern coast. The ship had been tossed about by strong winds and waves before taking in sea water during the incident on Sunday. When the Coast Guard cutter arrived on the scene, the 495-ton ferry had capsized and seven of its passengers were already in the water, with the rest standing on top of the upturned vessel.
