In PEOPLE’s exclusive sneak peek at Tuesday’s episode of the Discovery Channel series, cameras capture the chilling moment when a deckhand goes overboard.

Pandemonium immediately breaks out, with the rest of the deckhands springing into action.
“Man overboard!” one shouts over the intercom. “Get the lights!”
“Get him out of the water — now!” yells Wichrowski.
