Just watched an episode last night and is pretty interesting the problems these guys have to face in sub-zero weather in the middle of nowhere with a 20 ton truck over ice.

I've been wanting to catch it, but have missed both episodes so far due to work.

I saw a one hour special last year on the same topic. Apparently these guys get paid boat loads of money to work 4 months out of the year.

the wife loves that show and we watched both shows and it is only 60 days or 2 months and they can make 40000-80000 in that amount of time

that was a cool show. especially those divers that are under the water that look up when they hear the cracking of the ice just to see a huge truck pass over them. That would scare the hell out of me.

I can tell you one thing I wouldn't get under that ice. I had better gettin' a Healthy pay check if someone wants me to do that kind of shit!

I'd like to try that, ONCE. Just to say, "I've done that". Nice paycheck too!

BUT, I hate the cold. Winter here, is bad enough. Fighting frozen brakes sucks!
