00:00 Let's see what's going on around our world.
00:03 Three men were rescued from a tiny remote island in the Pacific Ocean after being stranded
00:08 for more than a week.
00:10 The Coast Guard says the men had been planning to fish around the area, which is part of
00:15 Micronesia, but their boat was caught by swells and the motor was actually damaged.
00:22 So they scrambled to shore, but they didn't have a radio with power.
00:26 So they ended up spelling out the words "help" using palm leaves on the beach.
00:32 And to their luck, a U.S. Navy jet spotted the sign.
00:35 We're happy they managed to get some of that help.
