A crab fisherman is a real person. Just ask one. And believe you-me, when a red crab claw grips a finger (or in one episode, this one guy's crotch) there is nothing natural about it!
Actually I would classify the Deadliest Catch as a documentary slash soap opera. Technically speaking, of course. Last episode, they came to shore for a prop repair and one of the deckhands got arrested right on the dock for missing a court date while he was out at sea. The other deck mates all rushed to the ATM to take out cash to bale him out.
