Antarctica is a place of extremes
visibility’s dance 20 laces it’s cold
they’re always cold and camera equipment
doesn’t work so one on that cold camping
it’s probably 100 degrees warmer than it
is right now because Antarctic is so
hard to get to we send a very small team
so on any given day I would be generally
alone it would be say negative 20 you’d
be sleeping in a tent
you’d have to continue to operate camera
equipment you’d be running sound for
several people and you are hundreds of
miles away from the nearest resupply now
we advanced onwards into nothing just
the ice shelf and horizon now so my
first trip down there everyone said
you’re gonna love all the Penguins
you’re gonna see well I didn’t see any
animals for the first month because all
the animals live by the water my second
time down I saw lots of animals my
favorite they were the Penguins because
they don’t have any predators when
they’re on land so they’re just curious
and they waddle themselves right up to
you and they get just a few feet away
and then they just kind of stare at you
for a while and there are these little
fat footballs that just kind of look
into your eyes it’s the cutest thing
very few people go to Antarctica more
people generally go to the Super Bowl
that are on Antarctica at any given time
do we get an incredible window into this
part of the world that most people know
nothing about the most interesting thing
that I took from Antarctica is really
what the series is based on and that is
the people that go to Antarctica the
people that they dedicate their lives
and they’ll be away for three four
months sometimes a year at a time away
from their family sacrificing so much so
we can learn about a very cold climate
that is changing it was amazing
incredible and so insightful and
inspiring but it was also the hardest
assignment of my life
