It's a series on the History Channel about the perils of truck drivers that drive on the ice roads in some place artic.

For some reason I am quite intrigued with this show and have been watching it all evening long.

Changes your perspective about guys like Jerk huh?

Talk about a crazy way to make your living.

No kidding!

Two of the drivers look like they've just got their driver's license. TJ and Jay are their names, I think.

I can't imagine driving over a lake of 28 inch thick ice with loads that weigh as much as what they carry!

:eek:

i'd use your super-sponsor powers to delete that. it probably wasn't the smartest thing you've ever posted - and that, in and of itself, is saying something.


which is why i should be a sponsor, but i refuse to re-up until i quit getting banned for poor penmanship...

The show has the same narrator, pace, and timing as "Deadliest Catch."

And Martin is THE MAN!

Yeah it's northern Canada. They do a brief intro at the beginning of each episode about that and I think maybe show the map, I don't remember. I believe the start of the road is Yellowknife, and they end up somewhere north of that at a diamond mine.

And Martin is THE MAN!no it isn't. Mike Rowe narrates Deadliest Catch. He works for Discovery, not the History channel.
