Ice Cold Courage – Trailer [1080]

FESCH.TV INFORMIERT:

There are places on this planet that few of us will ever experience… vast frozen realms of glaciers and mountains, locked in snow and ice… These regions store the fresh water that sustains most life on earth, they cool our planet, and they are home to our most precious wildlife… but for us, these frozen worlds are hostile and dangerous…

The rare people who do venture here – scientists, explorers and extreme athletes, hold an intimate understanding of these environments, and now faced with climate change they are united by their drive to protect these rapidly changing places…

Join us as we embark on a series of expeditions from Antarctica to the Arctic, to explore and understand our frozen worlds with the people who know them best… Experience the beauty and danger of the Antarctic Peninsula with legendary mountaineer Brennan Lagasse and Olympic gold snowboarder Torah Bright. Trek across the Antarctic Island of South Georgia to reveal incredible wildlife and retreating glaciers with environmental scientist Tim Jarvis. Witness the power of a volcanic eruption as we travel up the Andes, climb sheer ice-faces with Canadian chemist Richard Federley, ride the world’s most extreme Alaskan mountains with backcountry legend Jeremy Jones and freeskiing superstar Sammy Carlson, and follow Inupiat elder Robert Thompson onto the frozen ice sheet of the Arctic to track polar bears.

From the mountains of Antarctica to the icy ocean of the Arctic, these are the stories of incredible human endeavour in our rapidly changing frozen worlds… This is Ice Cold Courage.
