the way that particular series was set up, pretty much any6thing would have survived and ran. it was dropped dead square on all wheels, so worst case it would have burst tyres or broken some leaf springs. leaving it in the sea, it had no ECU and wasnt running so no engine or electronics damage, crashing into a tree was done so it missed the radiator etc if the impact was misjudged and too hard, even setting fire to it, the fire was confined mostly to the seats to prevent the ignition wiring being burnt through etc. even the wrecking ball only hit the bed, from memory, or its likely the cab would have crushed or been unable to open the doors. set up like that they could have used pretty much any Diesel vehicle from the pre electronics era

NGL, I agree with Jeremy about the shotgun part. Maybe you can give the polar bear one, MAYBE two warning shots. But if that doesn't deter it, I wouldn't expect two more to make any difference, other than leave you with only 1 round to hit an angry moving target exactly at the right spot.
@blarfroer8066

@lloydevans2900
4 ай бұрын
What slightly confuses me is why you would pick a shotgun in the first place as a deterrent against polar bear attack, let alone for actually killing it if you absolutely needed to. I mean, it is one of the largest species of bear, if not the largest: Adult males weighing 550 Kg on average (adult females are usually about half that, unless they are pregnant), though they can on rare occasions reach almost double - the largest specimen ever recorded was apparently just over 1000 Kg. They also have thick fur, thick and tough skin, plus a subcutaneous fat layer at least 10 cm thick. Plus they can run at 20 to 25 mph - so if a polar bear starts chasing you, unless you can run at Olympic sprinter type speeds, it is going to catch you. Given all that, you're going to need a rather powerful gun to have much chance of stopping a polar bear which is determined to chase you down and rip your face off. Some kind of large calibre rifle firing high velocity armour-piercing ammunition would seem to be in order. Something more akin to an "elephant gun", of the type which were at one time used by big game hunters. This could be considered overkill, but if you're somewhere approaching the north pole, thousands of miles away from the nearest hospital or any kind of backup, why would you not want to leave as little to chance as possible?
@blarfroer8066
4 ай бұрын
@lloydevans2900 Canadian gun law, probably. Also, elephant guns are unwieldy and take training to fire accurately. I doubt that any of the guys present at the shoot would've been able to hit a moving bear with any type of gun.

I'm surprised that game survived getting shotgunned when James' SPAM didn't.

I can’t believe they cut the G&T part! It was one of the funniest parts of that episode, and seemed for them like one of those simply joyous less-scripted moments.

It was the first truck that got to the magnetic north pole. The truck is a museum piece not unlike any famously saved piece of history.

I'm guessing that most viewers don't realize that "jet fuel" (aviation turbine fuel, commonly known as ATF or "avtur") and diesel fuel are essentially the same, so diesel engines can all run on jet fuel and gas turbine engines ("jets") can run on diesel. Jet A1 is the most commonly used specification worldwide. JP-8 is basically the same thing but with more additives (for corrosion inhibition and to lower freezing point) and is the standard fuel of the US military... including all ground vehicles.

It would be nice to see video about what happened with the burma tracks if they can be found or if they are gone completely after filming

One thing that always confused me was that damage was there when they set off. Did they record the whole thing backwards? Or did the damaged foot rail come from training?

My Karin Everon in GTA V might have more miles. It sucks that the gin and tonic scene was cut. Having a gin and tonic because you're in international waters was hilarious.

13:20 Did Mike really just ask if a Hilux was going to start? 2 things....first it's a freaking Hilux and second...do you really think Arctic Trucks would hand you the keys to the truck if it hadn't been cared for? It would reflect pretty badly on them if it hadn't started.

Quick thing, there has been a lot of reported concerns about better help and their practices over the last few years, Asmon did a react to a video highlighting these reports recently, might be worth a look before any further sponsorship on content. I can’t remember the issues that were raised in the video, but I know that there was a lot of public outcry a few years ago

growing up in the american south, tires with sidewalls like this were all over the place. The guy who owned one of the tire shops in town had an F350 crew cab with 44x19.50 on a 15 inch rim lol. however most people in town had atleast 35x12.50 on 15 inch rims, long story short large tires were on every other truck when i grew up in the 90s.

Betterhelp has unqualified therapists. This is dangerous and you guys need to stop doing business with them. The fact that you guys did ZERO research before doing business with them, is beyond ignorant.

Jeremy is totally right about the shotgun bit. If a polar bear decides to charge you, a single round of buckshot is not putting it down unless you get a perfect hit right into its brain. There's a reason large caliber "stopping rifles" used for big game hunting are side-by-side rifles: so you always have access to a followup shot.
