Im in Iceland, tackling the dangers youd come across if you got stranded here. But a deep glacial river is blocking my route. My only option is to jump. Ok. Freezing water can send my body into shock. Im also rapidly losing heat and thats making me w...
What you often get with crevasses is just a thin covering of compacted snow. Uh, its called a snow bridge. And you can see there just where one has collapsed. And this is why they are so dangerous. You dont know when you are on one, and you dont know...
A snow hole like this will keep you out of the wind. The next thing I need do is to dig a bit of a pit down. And the reason I do that is that cold air sinks. So I dont want this cold air around me. So I want it to go down into what they call a cold w...
I was hoping this is gonna be a good place to shelter. But its not. Shes gonna act like a wind funnel. I need to think again and get out of here pretty fast now. As it grows darker, a storm once again is moving in. Ive got minutes before its gonna hi...
But as quickly as it came, the storm lifts. And it gives me a brief chance to get my bearings. What weve got here is an ice cave. And caves can give you protection. The problem is this cornice all the way up there and how Im gonna get over this, over...
Man, this place is bleak. Im here in the middle of winter. Just now its 15 degrees Fahrenheit. But in a few hours, it can get down to a deadly minus ten. Get some feeling back in the hands again. My goal is to show how you could survive in this waste...
Im Bear Grylls. Ive served with the British Special Forces. Ive climbed to the summit of Everest and crossed the frozen oceans of the Arctic. Now, Im in Iceland, a land of huge glaciers and volcanoes. Every year, a thousand tourists need to be rescue...
They are responsible for over 60 unprovoked attacks in Australia every year. Crocodiles very rarely miss a target. And recently there was a guy canoeing in Queensland and a crocodile came up underneath him, turned him over and took him. Never underes...
But as the landscape alters, therere new dangers. Everythings just changing now. Look, the weather is getting worse, the wind picking up. But also, this river is really widening, which means that its prime crocodile territory. There are two types of...
Dawn has broken over the outback in north Australia. As soon as the sun comes over the horizon, I can feel its warming rays. The temperature is already 90 degrees Fahrenheit and rising. But at least, Im near water. Its time for an early-morning river...
Im in the baking heat of the Kimberley in north Australia. Out here, over 3,000 people each year get bitten by snakes. Im gonna show you what to do if you come face-to-face with one. Its an olive python. Lets just get him out here. There you come. We...
Ok. You should keep following a river like this downstream. It will lead to a bigger river, then the coast. Walking has always been a big part of Aboriginal culture. And for them, its about experiencing the landscape and learning to live with nature....
What Ive got to do here is really grip just with my thighs and let them take the strain and just balance with my arms and try and protect my family jewels. Theres water at the bottom of this gorge. But you cant guarantee its drinkable. You have to fi...
Coming off these hills is not as easy as I thought. And theres obstacles everywhere you turn. And theres no way Im going to be able to cross this. And thats not the only danger youll face in this wilderness. Ahead are snakes and the most dangerous of...
Finding your way across this vast landscape is difficult with so few landmarks to help. The native Australians have their own unique method of navigation. One of the reasons that Aborigines are, in many ways, the ultimate survivors in the outback is...
