It's so cold here that the sea freezes. Josh and Matt are determined to not just survive here, but to live like kings for the next seven days. With deep snow, treacherous ice, brutal temperatures and no obvious food sources, this punishing place is about to push these two men beyond the limit of anything they have ever experienced. Matt struggles to forage for any edible food growing under the thick snow cover, and although Josh spots some animal trails, poor visibility and extreme cold are hindering his hunting efforts. In their desperation to eat, Matt is forced to make porridge from tree bark. This is survival at its most extreme. Written by discovery channel See less
