Filmed like a documentary, "Ice Road Truckers" shows the dangerous routes these truckers have to take to deliver their goods. These brave souls drive across ice covered rivers and lakes, trusting the ice to support the weight of the truck and cargo. They brave the elements as they drive across the Arctic terrain through Alaska and Canada, including the Dalton Highway. Notorious for its unforgiving nature, the Artic is always a challenge for any who are desperate enough to brave it.

Swamp People

When Louisiana was settled, its people had to be as harsh as the environment they were living in. In an environment where the predators were more vicious and dangerous than the people, and the wilderness that surrounded them was vast and untamed, man had to pit his wits against the unknown to survive.

Today, the wilderness has been tamed, somewhat, but the predators are still more dangerous than the people. Louisiana’s native inhabitants have become known as the Cajuns, and the Cajuns have their work cut out for them as they hunt in the wilds of the Bayou, with hundreds of miles of wetlands and marsh to navigate through. History follows these people as they hunt for alligators, and encounter some of the many dangers Louisiana holds.
