    Yeah, we watched this. Like you, I saw the write up and was undecided. It was amazing to me what a hard life those guys lead and how happy they seem to be with their lot. Not a place for softies like me I fear.

    Was wondering what would happen if you killed a rabbit for the pot in the same manner as they do with the reindeer.lol

    Great filming and I especialy liked the soviet tank transport. You have to be pretty handy if it breaks down 2 days from anything, dont think the AA would come out.

    The way that guy got the reindeer flat on his botty just by grabbing him and twisting was amazing. I don't think I'll be spilling his pint!

    Apparently down to -60C in the winter and over 30C in the summer.
