In this series, he flies to some of the remotest parts of the planet to find out how people survive and thrive in places only a plane can reach.Arthur Williams heads into Canada's vast untamed wilderness, beginning by taking a 1930s flying boat upriver to the Great Bear rainforest region and viewing ancient rock art commemorating chiefs of the Kitasoo First Nations tribe. He then hitches a lift with a supply plane to Wekweeti, a Native American community in the far north that was built in the 1960s as a social experiment. Finally, Arthur tries his hand prospecting on the edge of the Arctic Circle with a man who has made $3 million dollars from gold deposits he has spotted from the air (From the UK) (Documentary Series) PG CCFollow the conversation on twitter: #SBSDoco |
