Did Sig Hansen have heart attack on show what happened?

Sig Hansen did not have a heart attack on the show "Deadliest Catch".

While he has experienced some health scares, he has never had a heart attack on camera.

Here's what we know:

* 2017: Sig experienced chest pains and shortness of breath while on the show, but it was later determined to be a blood clot in his lung (pulmonary embolism), a serious but treatable condition.

* 2020: Sig suffered from a herniated disc which caused severe pain and limited his ability to work on the boat.

It's understandable to be concerned about Sig's health, as he works in a very dangerous and demanding profession. However, he has not had a heart attack on the show.
