A plane crash in the middle of the ocean.
Pitch black night. No rescue in sight.

In this episode of Cut Through, Neil Watts shares the full story of the night his plane went down at sea — and the six-hour fight to survive that followed.

From the moment the aircraft lost control, to the impact with the water, to being stranded in open ocean with no clear way out, this is a raw, first-hand account of what it feels like to face death… and keep going anyway.

But this isn’t just a survival story.

It’s about what happens to your mind under pressure.
What you think about when everything is stripped away.
And how an experience like this reshapes what actually matters in life.

In this conversation, we explore:

• The exact sequence of events leading up to the crash
• What it felt like in the moments before impact
• The chaos of escaping the aircraft and entering the water
• The mental battle of staying alive in the open ocean
• The moment he almost gave up — and what happened next
• How facing death changes your perspective on purpose, fear, and meaning

Whether you’re searching for direction, questioning what really matters, or just trying to make sense of life under pressure — this is a story that stays with you.
