“Many brave hearts are asleep in the deep, so beware, beware,” echoes the haunting refrain of an old sailors’ song, capturing the allure and peril of life at sea. For those who venture onto the waves in search of fortune, there is much to fear—and perhaps none face greater risks than the men and women who challenge the unforgiving Bering Sea. Season after season, they wrestle with its icy depths, risking everything for one more bountiful harvest, all while trying to outrun the ever-present danger of sudden death. Among these fearless souls, brothers Andy and Johnathan Hillstrand have earned their place as masters of the trade, navigating the treacherous waters with skill and grit.

If you've watched them on Deadliest Catch, you've only glimpsed a fraction of their story. Time Bandit invites you to dive deeper—feel the biting cold, smell the salty air, and experience the adrenaline-fueled life on the edge. Born and raised in the tiny fishing village of Homer, Alaska, the Hillstrand brothers were destined for a life at sea, following in the footsteps of their hard-driving, successful fisherman father. With the rhythm of the waves in their blood, they can’t imagine life without the rocking deck beneath their feet or the promise of Alaskan king crab waiting to be hauled from the ocean floor.

Every season, they face towering 60-foot waves, dangerous ice floes, and the bone-crushing weight of 1,000-pound steel traps tossed by brutal winds, all while the hungry, open sea looms as a constant threat. Even on land, the shadow of the sea lingers, as they live fast and hard, knowing the next season could be their last.

Time Bandit is the Hillstrands' own tribute to the rough, independent, and soul-satisfying life they’ve chosen. Equal parts wild and introspective, thrilling and heartbreaking, this is the true story of two brothers locked in an ancient, awe-inspiring struggle between man and the powerful, unpredictable force of nature.
