Three examples of men making a living with out punching a time clock. Three men who have found a way to live off the land as it were. Three men who have found a way to suppliment their incomes by whoring themselves out to a "reality " TV show.
So what, It's mildly entertaining, at times it borders on assinine. I was impressed that the fella had a backup plan that would necessarily involve humping a replacement engine to a broke down snow machine. Kind of explained why such an old small sled, not something more modern.
The show does point out to a vast population that there are ways of supporting ones self that do not involve a subway car, an elevator, or a cubicle. Those who frequent this web site will see very little new on this sort of show and will likely think it is poorly executed. In the same fashion I watch some of the How It Is Made shows and am in wonder of the high speed automation involved in factories. Those who work in that environment would simply roll their eyes at me. I drive a semi, and cannot for the life of me understand the fascination with Ice Road Truckers. It's cold and slick, yep, been there done that. It's called ice fishing Lake of the Woods in January and driving the upper midwest, daily.
