'Deadliest Catch' Season 10 Spoilers: Sneak Peek Reveals Junior's Struggle With Back Pain
"Deadliest Catch" season 10 returns to the Discovery Channel this week with a brand-new episode chronicling Junior's fight against agonizing back pain.
Ahead of Tuesday's episode, fans were able to see a sneak peek at what was in store through a clip released online. Captain Scott Campbell Junior must find a way to overcome the debilitating back pain which flares up five hours into a fishing excursion this week, according to the clip released to Extra TV.
"After I've been sitting here awhile, I just get these stabbing pains that shoot down my leg and its shooting up my back," the skipper explained in the video. "It just gets to the point where I'm nauseated I'm in so much pain."

Fighting the agony, Junior eventually is forced to vomit over the deck.
"We're making some money," he rationalizes. "I just want to get off this boat, right now."
The sneak peek at this week's episode leaves fans wondering how much longer Junior can maintain his post aboard the fishing boat. Junior's story is just one story documented on "Deadliest Catch" which sheds light on the lives and family members of several people who work in one of the most dangerous professions on Earth- crabbing in the Bering Sea.
As previously reported, season 10 will also reveal crab attacks, a government shutdown and plenty of family drama, including problems encountered by Capt. "Wild" Bill Wichrowski, who revealed back in April his issues with a foreman.
"There's another kid on board, my deck boss Nick, he's kind of my other son," Capt. "Wild" previewed during an appearance on the "Today" show.
"Nick has alcohol issues, and there's a lot of trials and tribulations because of that. Toward the end of the season, we have some tough moments because Nick has trouble separating work from fun."
Also this season, Captain Sig Hansen's daughter Mandy joins the crew. Hansen, who is tough but caring, and his crab boat, the Northwestern, have been fan favorites on "Deadliest Catch" since the beginning. Now, Sig is adding his own daughter to the crew.
"Deadliest Catch" airs on Discovery Tuesdays at 9 p.m. EST.
