    World’s Most Dangerous Roads - China - The Sichuan-Tibet Highway: • World’s Most Dangerous...
    The Canadian ice roads exist only for a few months in the winter when the ice is thick enough. The only time of the year when goods can be transported up to Northern Manitoba. We accompany the truckers Vlad and Hugh as well as the aboriginal Canadian Scott with his pick-up on their long journey to a village called God’s Lake. A risky trip in icy temperatures, sometimes even below - 60 degrees Celcius.
    The men are in constant danger of getting stuck and need to forget everything they ever learnt about driving on a highway in order to arrive safely.

    • @FrigidPhoenix
      @FrigidPhoenix 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @Train 2noplace After watching all of it, there absolutely is some dramatization.. I'll give some quick thoughts on things said throughout the documentary and you're free to ask questions.
      I am not a trucker so I am probably not the best person to ask about the specifics of that. But Northern Manitoba is a very sparely populated harsh climate. Temperatures generally range from -30 to -40 C in the winters, and with windchill hit -50c or lower multiple times a year. So if you arnt prepared then you'd absolutely could end up in a life or death situation. But with that said anyone living or working here WOULD be prepared and know what they are doing. It's livable if you take the proper precautions (evidenced by the people who DO live here full time). Some ice roads also exist for much longer than a few weeks. Being properly dressed and prepared can make a huge difference.
      A lot of these communities that have ice roads also have small airports which could be used, so to say they are completely dependant on the truckers in the winter is dramatized. However having the truckers go in is very good for the communities, as you can ship so much more via truck than a small plane. But if needed, then these communities could get stuff flown in as they do in the summer.
      To say that EVERY community is 100 percent dependant off state assistance is a generalization. Some reserves have more resources than others, and some manage their resources better than others. However infrastructure as a whole is lacking, the people live in poverty compared to the rest of Canada, drugs and alcohol are a major issue which they are trying to get under control to the best of their ability. This is directly related to past treatment of the native peoples of Canada as referenced at 14:00 , where they were stolen from their communities by the Canadian RCMP, put into Catholic residential schools where they would be beaten and treated so poorly that in some the death toll was over half of the children taken there. This only stopped in 1996 and so the effects are still felt today. I bring this up because this actually is a common experience for many of the peoples here and not dramatized in the documentary, just not much was said about it.
      I also feel like truckers probably don't actually get stuck as frequently as they did in this documentary. To say it doesn't happen would be wrong but I do feel it happened abit more than normal in the video. Comments like "metal breaks in half at -40" is only true of some forms of metal - forms that I don't imagine you would use in a truck made for this climate.
      This comment is long enough so i'll leave it at this for now!

    I had an uncle who used to drive the Ice roads out of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan al the way out to a place called Rabbit Lake and Pat Lake in North Saskatchewan for the uranium mines. Brutal, and scary work. He lost a few close friends on those long frozen roads. It was not unheard of for it to be a week before the next truck would drive up along the road and no one ever heard of a satellite phone back in the 1970s and 1980s. Not even a satellite pager or distress beacon. When your truck broke down or got stuck, it was a death sentence. Driving in a small convoy was the only way to insure safety

      Back then Truck convoys with a Pilot/Mechanic Truck would usually be the norm ,
      No one other then a complete Idiot , or a really desperate driver would go solo , and most of those are Dead now.

    This was a good episode. I get nervous for them when they talk about the lake that turned into a road and they can only use that route during the Winter. I don't know if I would be brave enough to drive on a frozen lake. More power to them and I'm glad they had safe travels. These are some great episodes to thank you Free Documentary for all of your work.

      it's actually more common than people realize, here in Canada! take a look at google maps with the traffic feature on someday, you might be able to tell where the permanent roads end, and just how many bodies of water we have here making roads hard to develop. There are many first nations communities up north that are fly in only communities, only reachable by land in winter.

      It's really not as bad as these documentaries and ice road trucker shows make it seem. I've been on these roads every year since i was a kid, and started driving on them when i was 17. The only thing that sucks is the long hours. It once took 16 hours to get home

    • @onlyamberrr9635
      @onlyamberrr9635 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also 20+ years i've never ever had an experience of ice breaking. Only time i've ever heard of a vehicle going through the ice (no fatalities) is when a vehicle breaks down on the ice during the last 2 weeks of it being driveable and the owner not being able to fix it before the ice melts. I've never heard of anyone dying by going through on the winter roads

    • @tired1923
