Real Survival Stories

Arctic Adventure: Showdown on the Tundra

Teenager Alex Messenger journeys into remotest Canada in search of true adventure. He never imagines he’ll end up fighting for his life at the edge of the Arctic Circle. Cornered by a fearsome, four-legged beast, Alex must do his utmost to stay calm and remember his training. But even if he survives this encounter, how on earth will he and his friends make it out of the wilderness?
