1
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:10,440
Can a guy risk it all in America anymore?
2
00:00:12,040 --> 00:00:14,760
You're about to lose your house. Don't lose faith.
3
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:18,720
Go get your glory.
4
00:00:19,660 --> 00:00:21,040
Let go.
5
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:23,580
(bleep) Don't talk to me that way.
6
00:00:23,630 --> 00:00:24,890
Don't try and intimidate me.
7
00:00:26,750 --> 00:00:28,550
Holy...
8
00:00:30,540 --> 00:00:32,840
It's like nothing lives here except bears
9
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:33,560
Bang
10
00:00:36,820 --> 00:00:38,500
Where is the gold.
11
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:45,840
We got gold.
12
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:50,820
I'm ready to die for it.
13
00:00:50,820 --> 00:00:51,700
That I guarantee you.
14
00:00:51,700 --> 00:00:53,060
Here we go.
15
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:55,220
It's a fir fest.
16
00:00:55,220 --> 00:00:56,260
Whoa
17
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,100
There isn't one man in America
18
00:01:04,100 --> 00:01:07,600
if he's got anything inside him
19
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,060
wouldn't want to be here with us.
20

21
00:01:21,320 --> 00:01:24,020
Hey dad. I've got to talk to you about fuel.
22
00:01:24,020 --> 00:01:26,760
I don't think we can afford to get any fuel. So
23
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:31,060
Alright. The way things are,
I don't know what we're gonna do.
24
00:01:31,860 --> 00:01:35,720
Tom Hoffman and his father Jack, run a small airfield.
25
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:37,320
We may have to sell the airport.
26
00:01:37,320 --> 00:01:39,920
It might be the best deal. I just don't know.
27
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:43,720
The American downturn means
this family business is struggling.
28
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,760
This recession has just decimated the
aviation business. It's just bad.
29
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,740
For Todd and Jack, the future looks bleak.
30
00:01:50,740 --> 00:01:53,830
I don't have a degree. You know.
I can't go out there and go get a job.
31
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,880
You know, even if I wanted to, there isn't anything out there.
32
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:01,240
For the Hoffman's there might be one last hope, Gold.
33
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,860
We're over $1200 an ounce.
34
00:02:03,860 --> 00:02:05,640
I thought it was good at $400
35
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,640
This is going to be a life changer if we can pull this off.
36
00:02:08,640 --> 00:02:16,600
With the price of gold at an all time high,
Jack and Todd are about to risk everything
they own on the biggest gamble of their lives.
37
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:22,640
Our business is struggling.
I'm throwing everything I've got into it.
We're gonna go gold mining.
38
00:02:22,640 --> 00:02:29,560
To find a gold claim, the Hoffman's
are traveling to America's last frontier.
39
00:02:30,340 --> 00:02:39,470
Buried in the Alaskan wilderness is
an estimated $250 billion worth of gold.
40
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:48,730
For over 100 years, men have risked
their lives here in the hope of getting rich.
41
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:56,760
And Jack knows the stakes are high.
Back in the 80's he mined for three
seasons, and nearly went bankrupt.
42
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,940
I kept mining, you know, when I guess
the last dog died, you know
43
00:03:00,940 --> 00:03:07,960
He was digging nuggets out of the
ground when the price of gold was just too low.
44
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:13,500
Since then, gold has gone sky high.
45
00:03:13,500 --> 00:03:19,280
Jack and Todd have been on a mission
to find the right place to start mining.
46
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:23,960
And now Jack thinks they've found
a claim that's a prospector's dream.
47
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:25,420
What do you got here.
48
00:03:25,420 --> 00:03:29,500
-I've seen a lot of ground.
-And this is it.
49
00:03:29,500 --> 00:03:33,210
Holy cow. They got 29 grams
in that one test hole.
50
00:03:33,210 --> 00:03:34,720
There's millions of dollars.
51
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,640
Well, if you think we got a shot,
I mean, I'll go..
52
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:38,840
I know we got a shot.
53
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:49,020
The claim the Hoffmans want to lease,
is 160 acres of forest and rock around an old
ghost town in Porcupine Creek, south-eastern Alaska.
54
00:03:49,020 --> 00:03:53,360
It belongs to an old mining
buddy of Jack's named Earl Foster.
55
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,460
Eighteen years. Glad you made it dude.
56
00:03:55,460 --> 00:04:04,240
All along here, it all yielded gold from the surface
down to 20 feet. Here, you take 100 ounces of gold.
57
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:12,060
Since 1898, prospectors have pulled out nearly
$100 million of gold from the Porcupine Creek area.
58
00:04:12,060 --> 00:04:15,690
Dude. That's all gold nuggets right there.
59
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,620
Hehehehehe. Look at those nuggets, Earl.
60
00:04:18,620 --> 00:04:23,960
For every smiling miner,
there are 100 who never make it.
61
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:33,260
Back in the Klondike gold rush in the 1890s,
less than 1% of those who set out struck it rich.
62
00:04:33,260 --> 00:04:37,600
But no one's ever prospected
on Earl's claim with heavy machinery.
63
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:44,240
And the geological samples suggest there's still $15 million worth of gold in the ground there.
64
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,200
I would work this piece of ground first.
65
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:50,820
Todd is gambling that with the
right equipment, he can beat the odds.
66
00:04:50,820 --> 00:04:53,680
We're going. We're going for it man. Hah, he he.
67
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,440
We're going all the way.
So we'll see, how we do.
68
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:04,260
Back in Oregon, they're selling
everything that's not nailed down.
69
00:05:04,260 --> 00:05:07,220
Another day, another $1000
70
00:05:07,220 --> 00:05:12,040
To pay for the machinery to get at the gold.
71
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:24,360
The money's being spent on 2 excavators,
an old dump truck, a front loader,a portable
generating station, a semi, and thousands
of dollars worth of supplies.
72
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,880
What they can't afford to buy, they're building.
73
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:34,080
They're making a shaker and a trommel from scratch.
74
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:39,000
and reconditioning a pump capable of
emptying a swimming pool within minutes.
75
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:44,560
What they need is mining equipment
spec'd out for the wilderness.
76
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:50,620
The Hoffmans are assembling an unemployed
bunch of buddies to operate this equipment in Alaska.
77
00:05:50,620 --> 00:05:53,100
But there's no spare cash for wages.
78
00:05:53,100 --> 00:05:58,540
These guys are paying their
own way,until we strike gold.
79
00:06:00,140 --> 00:06:01,640
They're not gonna get paid.
80
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,780
Until we dig the gold out of the ground.
81
00:06:03,780 --> 00:06:08,140
That sounds kinda silly, but I'll tell
you what. That's the way it is.
82
00:06:08,420 --> 00:06:15,720
Times are so tough, everyone of
these guys is prepared to take their
chances on a share of the profits.
83
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:23,300
There's gonna be a lot of people that are friggen
surprised at what this group of nutballs can put together.
84
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:29,520
Most of the engineering is being done
by the team mechanic, James Harness.
85
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,780
I'm the guy that everybody brings
stuff to after no one else can fix it.
86
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,920
I'm stubborn and I'll make sure it happens.
87
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,640
You're rockin dude. Rock and Roll buddy.
88
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,760
Harness can fix anything.
But he can't fix himself.
89
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,200
I've got a fractured neck from a car wreck.
90
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:53,200
I have an implant in my ankle.
My ankle was completely taken off my body.
91
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:58,000
The pain is, without morphine,
impossible to deal with.
92
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:02,760
The first thing I want to do, when we
get gold, is get spinal surgery.
93
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:08,840
If there's no gold, then I'm sunk
just like everybody else.
94
00:07:10,700 --> 00:07:15,260
Team foreman is Greg Remsburg,
a construction superintendant.
95
00:07:15,260 --> 00:07:19,320
Hey, hey. One guys got to be directing here.
This is how somebody's gonna get killed.
96
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,120
But he's hit hard times too.
97
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:25,820
I haven't had work here in,
in Oregon, for the last year.
98
00:07:25,820 --> 00:07:29,380
He's taking handouts to
put food on the family table.
99
00:07:29,380 --> 00:07:35,700
I hate relying on my parents for help.
41 years old. I should be able to wipe my own bottom.
100
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:41,240
The team safety officer is Jim Thurber,
an unemployed metal worker.
101
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:47,940
Two years ago, he had a successful
business. Now he's about to lose his home.
102
00:07:47,940 --> 00:07:53,560
One more late payment on my mortgage
and we go into foreclosure. So...
103
00:07:53,900 --> 00:07:56,600
Rounding out the team is Jimmy Dorsey.
104
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,340
I am learning how to use this thing. Whoa.
105
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:04,000
He's an ex realtor who's
had to move out of his home.
106
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,640
We are at my mother-in-law's house.
107
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:13,930
I don't wish this upon anybody.
It's really humbling to ask for this type of help.
108
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:23,420
The future of every one of these
guys is resting on Todd's dream.
109
00:08:23,420 --> 00:08:25,020
I'm no miner.
110
00:08:25,020 --> 00:08:30,080
I'm just your average guy tired of
sitting here not making any money.
111
00:08:31,340 --> 00:08:36,400
So, like my forefathers, they balls upped,
and they went out into the frontier.
112
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:45,420
It's spring, and the snow is melting in Alaska,
which means the mining season can begin.
113
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:56,380
At the airport, four lowboys and a semi have
arrived, to carry the four hundred thousand
pounds of mining equipment on the long journey north.
114
00:08:56,380 --> 00:08:59,100
Alright. Let's go. We gotta get this stuff moving.
115
00:08:59,100 --> 00:09:05,080
Every day they're not mining is
money going out with nothing coming in.
116
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,640
We gotta get this tied down, and get out of here.
117
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:15,160
If we don't get this stuff loaded up tonight,
we're a week behind. We gotta keep moving forward.
118
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:21,860
The team is going to use their 2 backhoes
to get their equipment onto the lowboys.
119
00:09:21,860 --> 00:09:26,610
Ex Realtor Dorsey is at the controls.
120
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,000
Stop.
121
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,440
Just, just stop.
122
00:09:36,180 --> 00:09:42,700
Look at him. He's on top of his friggen car.
Your hands. Show me your hands. Clear. Awww.
123
00:09:42,700 --> 00:09:46,660
Jamie Dorsey, has just hit his own car.
124
00:09:46,660 --> 00:09:51,300
Since you did that, you try to get it off there.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
125
00:09:51,300 --> 00:09:53,200
It's never ending with these guys.
126
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,400
You didn't break any windows. You're alright.
127
00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:00,300
-He always is giving me a hard time.
-Where do you want it?
128
00:10:00,300 --> 00:10:06,200
Jack's got about 20 years more experience at this
than Dorsey. So he's taking charge of the loading.
129
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,730
This is scaring me right here.
130
00:10:08,730 --> 00:10:10,440
Holy steinkie.
131
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:16,060
The combined weight of the generator
and it's container is 35,000 pounds.
132
00:10:16,060 --> 00:10:20,960
-I can't lift the whole thing.
I can only lift this end.
-Hold on.
133
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,780
Todd brings in the front
end loader to try and add lift power.
134
00:10:24,780 --> 00:10:27,630
Hang on. Hold up.
135
00:10:27,980 --> 00:10:30,220
Hold up.
136
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:36,650
Okay. We're gonna lift the front, try to slide
that semi up underneath that container.
137
00:10:36,650 --> 00:10:40,380
And then, we're gonna winch it up on there.
We don't know if it's gonna work.
138
00:10:40,380 --> 00:10:48,780
The plan is to use the 400 and the loader
to take the weight of the container, while
the lowboy's winch pulls it onto the deck.
139
00:10:48,780 --> 00:10:53,640
I don't know if that winch is strong enough.
They don't know either, and I
don't want to tear up their deck.
140
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,720
I had a buddy one time and the winch
chain had snapped and killed him, so
141
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:02,120
Every time I see cables like that,
man, I try and stay clear.
142
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,880
Their families have come
to see the final preparations.
143
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:12,190
You got some candy?
144
00:11:12,190 --> 00:11:14,800
Watch that. Watch that cable.
145
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,740
Within seconds, disaster strikes.
146
00:11:20,190 --> 00:11:22,250
(Snap, twang)
147
00:11:29,900 --> 00:11:33,850
Broke the chain, the cable snapped back,
148
00:11:33,850 --> 00:11:35,080
I could have killed somebody.
149
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,360
Hey, you shut up. Don't talk like that.
150
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:43,320
You gonna talk like that, go over there.
You don't talk like that.
151
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:49,900
The last thing the families need is
a reminder of just how dangerous
this mining expedition will be.
152
00:11:49,900 --> 00:11:57,340
All of a sudden, it's become very real.
You see the chain break and you're like,
Oh my god,my worst fears.
Someone's gonna get their head blown off.
153
00:11:57,340 --> 00:12:05,080
Despite their narrow escape, the crew
still needs to work fast and hard to
get the equipment loaded.
154
00:12:27,780 --> 00:12:33,140
Finally, all of the Hoffman's precious
mining gear is safely on the lowboys.
155
00:12:33,140 --> 00:12:36,520
And ready to go to Alaska.
156
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:47,300
Up ahead, getting 400 thousand pounds
of mining gear to Alaska, the hard way.
157
00:12:47,300 --> 00:12:51,140
The Hoffman's crew runs out of road.
158
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:52,800
Back back back back.
159
00:12:52,820 --> 00:12:54,820
Unhook it. I will.
160
00:12:54,820 --> 00:12:58,180
And Todd loses it, on the final leg to the claim.
161
00:12:58,180 --> 00:13:01,540
Unhook the Gator, now.
162
00:13:10,420 --> 00:13:12,980
The day of departure dawns.
163
00:13:12,980 --> 00:13:17,800
Todd Hoffman and his crew of wannabe
miners are about to head off for Alaska.
164
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:21,820
We're back on schedule now. Everything's
loaded up, tied down, ready to go.
165
00:13:21,820 --> 00:13:24,700
There's still some last minute packing to be done.
166
00:13:24,700 --> 00:13:29,600
But Todd's gone home for
a last moment with his wife, Shawna.
167
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:39,140
I know those guys are gonna be pissed off
but, I gotta spend this last few minutes with
my family, and, it's a lot of weight
on my shoulders, you know, and
168
00:13:39,140 --> 00:13:45,160
I can do it, as long as her, and Peewee,
wild girl over there, are Okay.
169
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:51,340
Todd's wife and daughter are staying in
Oregon. But he's taking his two sons,
Hunter and Hudson.
170
00:13:51,340 --> 00:13:57,760
It's going to be hard, seeing all 3 of
them leave. This will be the first time
to be away from them that long.
171
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,380
And like Todd, Greg will be bringing his son, Brandon.
172
00:14:01,380 --> 00:14:08,880
I'm excited for what he's gonna learn
from me, from this group of men, and
He's gonna grow up a lot this year.
173
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:13,520
But the other wives and families will stay behind.
174
00:14:15,300 --> 00:14:17,420
What am I supposed to do? Stay here?
175
00:14:17,420 --> 00:14:20,660
I was really hoping to hear that you're
okay with being here all summer.
176
00:14:20,660 --> 00:14:22,800
Not really.
177
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:27,700
I don't like the long distance marriage thing.
178
00:14:32,940 --> 00:14:39,260
Meanwhile, Jack, and James Harness are
going to pick up a couple of final essential items.
179
00:14:39,260 --> 00:14:41,740
Spear guns.
180
00:14:44,900 --> 00:14:47,540
The bigger, the better. In terms of bears.
181
00:14:47,540 --> 00:14:50,000
Not having a gun is suicide up there.
182
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,680
This 44 Mag is made out of titanium.
183
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:59,180
You don't need something this big for, for humans.
184
00:15:01,020 --> 00:15:04,520
Harness settles on a 50 calibre hand cannon.
185
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:05,240
I gotta have this one.
186
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:05,640
Get that?
187
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:06,000
Yup.
188
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,270
Good. Come on back here
and we'll do the paperwork.
189
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:20,160
Loaded with firepower, the guys gather
with family and friends for their last goodbyes.
190
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:24,520
Thank you Lord for this day, and Lord,
for the good weather and we just thank you...
191
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:29,220
Their local Pastor, Mike Hallstead,
comes to bless their journey.
192
00:15:29,580 --> 00:15:33,960
But it looks like the Pastor's caught
a bad dose of gold fever himself.
193
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,580
I, I think I'm going to Alaska.
194
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,660
It's really exciting that he's coming.
195
00:15:39,660 --> 00:15:42,220
Can't let these guys go up
and have all the fun without me, so..
196
00:15:42,220 --> 00:15:45,600
Now, with guns and God on their side
197
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,580
The town takes a moment
to reflect on what lies ahead.
198
00:15:48,580 --> 00:15:49,500
I love you.
199
00:15:49,500 --> 00:15:50,500
You too. Take care.
200
00:15:50,500 --> 00:15:51,760
You be careful. okay.
201
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:52,240
You too.
202
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:57,500
The main anxiety that I have
is for the families that are left here.
203
00:15:58,740 --> 00:15:59,840
I'll call, okay.
204
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:00,540
Okay,
205
00:16:00,540 --> 00:16:03,920
Everybody's going to have a real struggle.
206
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:05,740
He's buying a new truck?
207
00:16:05,740 --> 00:16:09,340
Yeah, and he's going a, a long time.
208
00:16:13,220 --> 00:16:17,120
I believe the people that step up to the plate
209
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:21,740
like our people will be able to take care
of ourselves and our families and our friends.
210
00:16:21,740 --> 00:16:23,560
Aw, it's hard to leave.
211
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,140
Hard to leave my girls.
212
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:30,840
I'm gonna do everything I can, for all these people.
213
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:32,600
I want them to be happy.
214
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:36,940
I want them to have gold, you know.
Put it in their pocket.
215
00:16:36,940 --> 00:16:42,760
Pay for their houses.
Pay for their cars.
That, that's what I want it for.
216
00:16:43,100 --> 00:16:45,880
I'm ready to die for it.
217
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:58,280
After months of hard labor, blood, sweat,
and tears, the team is finally on the road.
218
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,320
Yessss...Wooohooo.
219
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,680
I've done a lot of crazy things in my day.
220
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:10,720
This might be the biggest, most
ambitious thing, I've ever tried.
221
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,740
You have no idea how good this feels.
222
00:17:13,740 --> 00:17:19,340
Man, I've been waiting. I mean,
I've had my stuff packed for weeks.
223
00:17:20,180 --> 00:17:22,080
I'm excited.
224
00:17:22,940 --> 00:17:24,720
I'm apprehensive.
225
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:31,540
But moving 400,000 pounds of gear
to Alaska, is not as simple as a Sunday cruise.
226
00:17:31,540 --> 00:17:37,020
We gotta haul all this gear to
Seattle, get it on the barge, by 3 PM.
227
00:17:37,020 --> 00:17:40,760
Then we got to drive 2000 miles up to Alaska.
228
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:46,420
I have no idea what's in store for us.
This is not gonna be easy.
This is gonna be tough.
229
00:17:48,700 --> 00:17:52,960
The only practical way to get
all the heavy gear to southeast Alaska,
230
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,720
is by sea barge.
231
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,040
They sail once a week from Seattle.
232
00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:01,320
And if the team misses the barge,
it'll cost them one week's time.
233
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:05,020
And thousands of dollars in expenses.
234
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,980
We have to make it to the barge by 3pm.
235
00:18:11,980 --> 00:18:14,860
We got 6 hours to go 200 miles.
236
00:18:14,860 --> 00:18:21,880
My one concern is that we've got a bunch of
old equipment, and travel with old gear,
anything can happen at any time.
237
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,760
After only an hour and a half,
238
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:30,040
the team's campers and SUVs have ground to a halt.
239
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:35,620
Well, I was following, following Jack
down the freeway, and I could smell smoke.
240
00:18:35,620 --> 00:18:42,780
A hot burning rubber smell so I knew
someone in the convoy, was uh, losing
a tire and then I saw smoke coming from Jack's
241
00:18:42,780 --> 00:18:46,500
wheel, then next thing I know,
chunks of tire is flying I saw.
242
00:18:46,500 --> 00:18:51,500
Blown fuses and dead batteries
bring the team to a standstill.
243
00:18:51,500 --> 00:18:57,560
The convoy is now split in two.
But one team member is still making good time.
244
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:06,480
Now, it's up to Dorsey to deliver
the heavy gear to Seattle by 3 pm.
245
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,540
Well, I gotta keep these big rigs moving.
246
00:19:08,540 --> 00:19:10,980
If we don't make it to the barge, today
247
00:19:10,980 --> 00:19:15,820
Another barge isn't going to be sailing for
Alaska until next week. This is gonna
cost Jack and Todd thousands.
248
00:19:15,820 --> 00:19:20,380
The lowboys should make the barge,
as long as Dorsey can keep them moving.
249
00:19:20,380 --> 00:19:23,180
Dorsey. Big time blowout here.
I'm gonna pull over right now.
250
00:19:23,180 --> 00:19:25,400
How could we have a flat. That's ridiculous.
251
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:29,560
Dammit.
252
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:38,200
Well, I'm driving then all of a sudden, BANG,
then I saw all this air and whatever shoot out.
253
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,500
So. We're kinda in a pickle here.
254
00:19:40,780 --> 00:19:45,640
Meanwhile, Todd's got the
campers and SUVs back on the road.
255
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:49,040
It's less than 3 hours till the barge sails.
256
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:49,600
(phone ringing)
It's less than 3 hours till the barge sails.
257
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:50,060
(phone ringing)
258
00:19:50,060 --> 00:19:51,780
This isn't good.
259
00:19:51,780 --> 00:19:53,180
It's Dorsey.
260
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,800
So. We had a blowout on the dump truck.
261
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,740
The rest of the convoy's just heading on, right?
262
00:20:00,740 --> 00:20:02,760
No. The rest of the convoy's waiting.
263
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,540
Get whatever we can get on that friggen barge.
264
00:20:05,540 --> 00:20:08,500
What do you want us to do? Do you
want, want me to send everyone ahead?
265
00:20:08,500 --> 00:20:13,740
Dorsey. Get that friggen truck fixed,
and get it up to the barge.
266
00:20:13,740 --> 00:20:17,040
You are going to cost us Bigtime.
267
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,240
Send it, okay, even the guy, alright.
Alright. I'll do it.
268
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:25,340
Todd wants you guys to just keep going.
Screw the convoy. We want
to get this stuff up to the barge.
269
00:20:25,340 --> 00:20:27,740
So. Go for it.
270
00:20:30,360 --> 00:20:34,760
The lowboys are back on the road.
And they should make the barge.
271
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:38,980
The challenge now is to get
the dump truck to the dock by 3.
272
00:20:38,980 --> 00:20:43,320
Dorsey calls a repair service to get the tire replaced.
273
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:51,260
Hi, just calling about an ETA
on a tire service repairman.
274
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,240
Thank you so much. Alright.
275
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:59,420
I guess, it's gonna be an hour. An hour to wait.
276
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:07,800
Every piece of equipment has to get on
the barge. Or they'll miss a week's mining.
277
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,900
It's all hanging on Dorsey fixing the blowout.
278
00:21:10,900 --> 00:21:16,880
If Dorsey screws this up, well, he just better not.
279
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:18,340
I don't know what we're gonna do.
280
00:21:18,340 --> 00:21:19,180
Coming up.
281
00:21:19,180 --> 00:21:21,060
Rushing death defying river.
282
00:21:21,060 --> 00:21:23,800
Todd and the team brave freezing waters.
283
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,740
Man that's deep. Go Go.
284
00:21:25,740 --> 00:21:28,060
And risk it all on treacherous roads.
285
00:21:28,060 --> 00:21:29,300
Oh. Oh. No.
286
00:21:29,300 --> 00:21:31,180
trying to get to their claim.
287
00:21:31,180 --> 00:21:33,280
This is where the gold is, boys.
288
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:37,960
We made it. Yee Haw. Woooo.
289
00:21:59,420 --> 00:22:01,020
(Woof. Woof.)
290
00:22:02,100 --> 00:22:05,920
This dump truck needs to be
on a barge in just over an hour.
291
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:10,360
But it's got a blowout. And Dorsey's
waiting for the guy to come and fix it.
292
00:22:10,360 --> 00:22:13,140
It's only been 41 minutes. They said 20 minutes.
293
00:22:13,140 --> 00:22:14,380
That, that's him right there.
294
00:22:14,380 --> 00:22:15,540
Alright.
295
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,860
Things are suddenly looking up.
296
00:22:21,980 --> 00:22:25,700
Gold price just went to $1237 an ounce.
297
00:22:25,700 --> 00:22:29,060
That's the highest amount, it's ever been, in human history.
298
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,540
The dump truck is finally getting back on the road.
299
00:22:34,540 --> 00:22:35,620
What's wrong?
300
00:22:35,620 --> 00:22:36,600
Heartache.
301
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:40,060
But there's less than an hour to get to the barge.
302
00:22:40,060 --> 00:22:45,100
We're underway. We're heading off to Seattle.
We're gonna try and meet up with the barge.
303
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:50,680
We gotta get to that barge.
304
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,020
We got 50 minutes to go 40 miles
305
00:22:53,020 --> 00:22:57,220
Time enough. It's gonna be touch and go. I'l tell you that.
306
00:22:58,940 --> 00:23:03,020
At this point it nay be a lost cause. It's all messed up.
307
00:23:03,020 --> 00:23:10,640
The team hits the gas. Desperately trying
to get the last straggling vehicles to
the port before time runs out.
308
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:19,600
With minutes to spare, the crew catches up to the convoy of lowboys outside the Seattle shipping terminal.
309
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:20,580
Get em unloaded.
310
00:23:20,580 --> 00:23:25,400
It's exactly 2:58 We have 2 minutes to get on this barge.
311
00:23:30,820 --> 00:23:36,820
Drop dead fantastic.. Everybody caught up
with each other, so, ha ha ha, you know.
312
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:44,420
They were literally, closing the gates when we pulled in.
313
00:23:44,420 --> 00:23:47,220
I mean, we made it by the skin of our teeth.
314
00:23:47,220 --> 00:23:51,400
Yeah. It was an amazing journey. I didn't
think we were actually gonna make it.
315
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:54,440
Yeah.
316
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:55,620
We made it.
317
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:05,780
200 miles down, out of a 2000 mile journey,
man, and I feel like I already got my butt kicked.
318
00:24:06,140 --> 00:24:10,620
As the barge leaves port, carrying
the weight of their hopes and dreams
319
00:24:10,620 --> 00:24:14,200
the team now has to race up north to meet it.
320
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:19,040
A journey that will take 5 days, if, all goes well.
321
00:24:19,380 --> 00:24:24,360
We got 2000 miles of road in front of us. The Alcan Highway.
322
00:24:24,360 --> 00:24:28,280
One of the worst stretches of highway in the whole United States.
323
00:24:29,180 --> 00:24:33,720
I'm gonna take this team of guys,
and I'm gonna kick this thing right in the face.
324
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:35,640
We're gonna go get some friggen gold.
325
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,840
Want gold? Want gold huh. Want to go to Alaska, huh.
326
00:24:43,500 --> 00:24:45,660
I gotta, take a pee.
327
00:24:45,660 --> 00:24:48,280
We're not stopping here.
You're gonna have to pee in a bottle.
328
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,920
Hey, be careful. It's not funny. Don't get it on the seat.
329
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:56,200
It's Greg's fault. Greg won't stop.
So, whaddaya do. Got to pee in a bottle.
330
00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:00,800
Supervisor Greg is pushing the team to put in the miles.
331
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,400
So they can meet the barge on time.
332
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,000
It's my job to keep this convoy moving.
333
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,320
Every day that we're not mining is costing us more money.
334
00:25:10,460 --> 00:25:12,620
Got everybody in line?
335
00:25:12,620 --> 00:25:16,120
Jack, Hallstead, Todd.
336
00:25:26,900 --> 00:25:34,380
With Greg driving them hot,
this band of mining greenhorns covers
the 2000 miles in just 4 days.
337
00:25:34,380 --> 00:25:39,200
So they're ahead of schedule,
as they reach the Alaskan border.
338
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,560
1, 2, 3, wooohooo.
339
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:42,480
We're here.
340
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,400
That's right. There's Mount Leland.
341
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,240
And, this is those trees right there. That's Porcupine Mine.
342
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:48,960
There's the town of Porcupine right there.
343
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:50,140
Let's start digging.
344
00:25:50,140 --> 00:25:51,260
Let's do it.
345
00:25:51,260 --> 00:25:54,400
Yeah, we made it. Wooo.
346
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,240
The port of Haines, Alaska.
347
00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:01,560
This is where the barge carrying the team's heavy equipment will dock.
348
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,760
See ya. Thanks for the call. Bye.
349
00:26:04,100 --> 00:26:07,100
Okay. The barge just came in. All our stuff's there.
350
00:26:07,100 --> 00:26:08,700
Get started.
351
00:26:09,260 --> 00:26:12,120
First thing I want to see show up is my gun.
352
00:26:12,120 --> 00:26:14,120
Because I don't want to be a bear snack.
353
00:26:14,120 --> 00:26:16,720
There's one cube case. Looks like a guitar case.
354
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,020
Is it guitar or tol guns.
355
00:26:18,020 --> 00:26:18,960
Guns.
356
00:26:20,180 --> 00:26:21,500
Yeah. We got guns.
357
00:26:21,500 --> 00:26:23,720
We're gonna have weapons on us before a bear attacks.
358
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,700
Bring a handful when you come.
359
00:26:25,700 --> 00:26:29,620
As well as 45 guns and 180 boxes of ammo
360
00:26:29,620 --> 00:26:34,400
the guys need to pick up nearly
400,000 pounds of heavy machinery.
361
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:38,880
including the 2 excavators,
the King of which, is the 400.
362
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:43,960
The 400 backhoe's our ace in the hole.
It can reach down 30 feet.
363
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:47,200
It can lift out boulders that are the size of a Volkswagon.
364
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:53,200
But this 100,000 pound beast,
and it's 60,000 pound cousin, the 270
365
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:57,620
are no good at the dock.
They need to get them up to the claim.
366
00:26:57,620 --> 00:26:59,980
There's just one little problem.
367
00:26:59,980 --> 00:27:01,520
The Klehini River.
368
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:06,740
We don't know what capacity this bridge is,
but we got to get our 270 across, or the lowboy.
369
00:27:06,740 --> 00:27:10,640
Everything could go in the water.
We lose a driver,
we lose the equipment
370
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,100
We're up a creek. Literally.
371
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:33,500
We're about ready to take this 270 excavator
across the Porcupine Bridge, and our one
concern right now is the weight.
372
00:27:33,500 --> 00:27:39,900
The 270 weighs 60,00 lbs., and that's
not including the tractor trailer.
373
00:27:39,900 --> 00:27:43,220
We're missing a bunch of wear
boards here. Donny, what do you think?
374
00:27:43,220 --> 00:27:47,880
This is a state maintained bridge.
But obviously the state hasn't been
here this year to maintain 'em.
375
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:48,900
Oh boy.
376
00:27:48,900 --> 00:27:52,100
Dude, I got serious reservations about this, so
377
00:27:52,100 --> 00:27:57,520
Whatever. It's your call Rams and Donny.
It's ultimately yours. So, is that cool?
378
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:58,440
Right on.
379
00:27:58,440 --> 00:27:59,220
Alright.
380
00:27:59,220 --> 00:28:00,880
Okay. Let's do this.
381
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,480
Let's go. Okay.
382
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:04,440
We're going.
383
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,680
This is our biggest challenge to date.
384
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:17,600
We got a bridge that we don't know if it
can handle the capacity. It's this old steel
trestle with wood decking that's half rotten.
Everything could go in the river. So
385
00:28:17,620 --> 00:28:20,360
This is a big deal for us right now.
386
00:28:20,620 --> 00:28:23,720
Keep everybody off that bridge 'cept for us.
387
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,140
Let's go.
388
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,120
(loud creaking noises)
389
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,460
(cracking noises)
390
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:51,340
Geez.
391
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,840
I'm hearing this sucker squeak.
392
00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,160
(groaning noise from bridge)
393
00:29:00,620 --> 00:29:03,120
I'm hearing this thing rattle like
394
00:29:03,660 --> 00:29:06,440
It's squeaking, moving
395
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,340
Holy Fuck!
396
00:29:11,340 --> 00:29:12,280
That board
397
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:15,300
Come on. We're almost there. We're almost there Donny.
398
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,320
Boards are squeaking, snapping.
399
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,160
My god, dude.
400
00:29:25,860 --> 00:29:27,360
(horn) Honk, honk, honk, honk
401
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,700
Yahoo. Wooh wooh. Cheering.
402
00:29:30,380 --> 00:29:31,540
Man.
403
00:29:31,540 --> 00:29:32,520
Hee Rah!
404
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:33,980
Donny.
405
00:29:33,980 --> 00:29:34,000
Leave it to Donny.
406
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:34,820
Right here, Man.
407
00:29:34,820 --> 00:29:37,500
Balls, Donny. You got balls
408
00:29:37,500 --> 00:29:37,940
Woo hoo.
409
00:29:37,940 --> 00:29:39,740
Never done that before. So.
410
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:41,280
Right on dude.
411
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,330
There was one spot where the tire
slipped down about 8 inches.
412
00:29:44,330 --> 00:29:47,540
(chatter)
413
00:29:47,540 --> 00:29:49,620
Lord. Teach me how to swim, fast.
414
00:29:49,620 --> 00:29:52,290
(Laughter)
415
00:29:52,290 --> 00:29:53,860
Well, let's get back to work.
416
00:29:55,530 --> 00:29:57,530
The relief is short lived.
417
00:29:57,530 --> 00:30:00,640
The bridge was straining under the weight of the 270.
418
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,690
And now the 400 has arrived.
419
00:30:02,690 --> 00:30:05,660
And it's nearly 40,000 lbs. heavier.
420
00:30:06,820 --> 00:30:11,210
Jack phones Alaska's Dept. of
Transportation to see if the bridge will take it.
421
00:30:11,210 --> 00:30:12,800
Well, thanks a lot.
422
00:30:13,500 --> 00:30:14,220
Yeah.
423
00:30:15,250 --> 00:30:17,250
I don't know what we're gonna do now.
424
00:30:17,250 --> 00:30:20,020
Now that could be just terrible.
425
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,050
It turns out, the bridge has been damaged.
426
00:30:25,050 --> 00:30:31,040
And the 100,000 lb. excavator is way beyond
what the Dept. of Transportation will allow.
427
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:32,380
Well.
428
00:30:32,380 --> 00:30:36,860
He says that there's no friggen
way we can go across that bridge.
429
00:30:36,860 --> 00:30:40,700
He says it'll either buckle, or the pilings will give way.
430
00:30:41,340 --> 00:30:44,040
We've come all this far, and this stops us.
431
00:30:45,900 --> 00:30:47,030
We're screwed.
432
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:48,860
Flat out
433
00:30:48,860 --> 00:30:49,930
Screwed.
434
00:30:49,930 --> 00:30:52,000
I don't know what we're gonna do.
435
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:58,930
We need that excavator. You know.
If we don't get that thing across
436
00:30:58,930 --> 00:31:06,530
it really is gonna just. It's gonna
severely affect us, uh, maybe to
the point that, we have to just, give it up.
437
00:31:06,530 --> 00:31:14,630
The 400 backhoe is crucial, because
it has the reach to get down to bedrock,
where all the gold nuggets settle.
438
00:31:14,630 --> 00:31:22,200
Jack's prepared to risk everything to
get the 400 across. Even if that means
driving it straight through the river.
439
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:27,160
I've crossed 'em. But not quite
this big. And not quite this deep.
440
00:31:29,930 --> 00:31:33,960
You know. If I do, and I die, no big deal.
441
00:31:34,330 --> 00:31:37,700
I just want to get it across.
442
00:31:38,030 --> 00:31:43,300
The springtime temperature of
the Klehini River is only 41 degrees.
443
00:31:43,300 --> 00:31:48,630
The water's so cold. This is glacier
runoff. This is glacier melt.
444
00:31:48,630 --> 00:31:54,330
If my dad got even in there for just,
a little bit of time, he could die.
445
00:31:54,330 --> 00:31:56,300
Lookit dad. Look how deep it is.
446
00:31:56,300 --> 00:31:58,330
No no. It's only six feet.
447
00:31:58,330 --> 00:32:00,300
You don't see anybody crossing here.
448
00:32:00,300 --> 00:32:01,700
They have, lots of times.
449
00:32:01,700 --> 00:32:03,600
Not now. Not this time of year.
450
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,560
Listen dad. That's a rushing, friggen river.
451
00:32:06,620 --> 00:32:07,820
I know that.
452
00:32:07,820 --> 00:32:10,560
You're gonna go through your death defying river thing.
453
00:32:10,580 --> 00:32:11,820
Thirty four degrees, that's it.
454
00:32:11,820 --> 00:32:15,260
You dropped off or something, you're done.
we're done. Our season's over.
455
00:32:15,260 --> 00:32:20,780
I think we'll get out in that deep part
there and our track will pop off or
something and then that's it.
456
00:32:20,780 --> 00:32:24,800
We'll be those idiots from Oregon that came up and, um
457
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,420
There's their excavator. That was their whole mining season.
458
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:35,720
Todd decides to cross further up the valley,
where the river splits into 3 main channels.
459
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:39,040
The only way to stop the old guy, is for me to do it.
460
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:41,440
I think I've found a better place to cross.
461
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:45,800
It's moving pretty quick. And we gotta
get rolling. It's getting warm out. So.
462
00:32:46,060 --> 00:32:50,640
All that snow melt, off these big
mountains and glaciers over here,
is just making this thing deep.
463
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:59,120
I keep getting a marker on these rocks and
it's going up slowly. Just like the tide coming in.
464
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,300
I'm worried about how fast this water is.
465
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,880
Watch for the sinkholes out there.
466
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,000
There it goes. Here we go.
467
00:33:22,780 --> 00:33:25,460
Here we go. Here we go.
468
00:33:36,740 --> 00:33:37,940
Holy, crap.
469
00:33:37,940 --> 00:33:40,260
Keep going. Keep going.
470
00:33:41,820 --> 00:33:44,060
I'm going. I'm going.
471
00:33:47,860 --> 00:33:50,220
(chanting) Go! Go!
472
00:33:54,700 --> 00:34:00,180
We got probably 3 more of these channels to
get across, so. Each one goes a little deeper.
473
00:34:01,860 --> 00:34:05,780
Frank's gonna eyeball everything, and watch the tracks.
474
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:11,240
I got Hallstead over here. Scouting out in front of us.
475
00:34:12,780 --> 00:34:16,520
Yeah. He's just gonna find the shallowest spot that he can.
476
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:22,880
Well. There's a little worry for me.
Because I think, about foot of
water and this thing might start floating.
477
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:25,280
What's he doing.
478
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,900
No, no no no no. Heyy.
479
00:34:28,660 --> 00:34:31,340
Nonononono. You float Al. Back it up.
480
00:34:31,340 --> 00:34:32,640
Steerike.
481
00:34:34,060 --> 00:34:36,520
That was the..Ahh, I'm soaked.
482
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:43,420
Make sure I get through this.
483
00:34:43,420 --> 00:34:45,760
Man. That's deep. Go. Go.
484
00:34:48,060 --> 00:34:50,900
That was awesome. You were deep man.
485
00:34:51,180 --> 00:34:52,160
Man.
486
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:55,740
I'm just gonna drive up there.
487
00:34:56,840 --> 00:35:00,440
Now this one here, I'm not
gonna cross. Too deep right here.
488
00:35:01,100 --> 00:35:04,660
Todd. This one right here's going about
10 miles an hour, and it's too deep for me.
489
00:35:04,660 --> 00:35:06,000
You gotta get over here.
490
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:07,140
He'll figure it out.
491
00:35:07,140 --> 00:35:10,800
You're like a cat. You always land on your feet.
492
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:15,050
Well, that would be nice. It's easy for you to say
"get over here" cause you're 8 feet off the ground.
493
00:35:27,740 --> 00:35:29,940
Ho, baby. I'm getting wet.
494
00:35:29,940 --> 00:35:31,020
Mike. Get outta there.
495
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,020
You're gonna go down.
496
00:35:33,900 --> 00:35:36,600
No. Back, back, back, back.
497
00:35:36,820 --> 00:35:37,940
Woo.
498
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:43,340
That was a lot deeper than I thought it was.
499
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:50,920
You coming or what?
500
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:54,880
Hurry up. It's getting higher. So figure out
a way to get over here, and get over here.
501
00:35:55,300 --> 00:35:57,220
I can't. I can't cross that.
502
00:35:57,220 --> 00:36:00,160
Well, see, just gonna leave me stranded out here.
503
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,660
Get back here and pick me up.
504
00:36:04,380 --> 00:36:06,140
Todd. Can you hear me?
505
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:07,960
Yeah. I got ya.
506
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,320
It's real important that you go back and get Mike.
507
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:18,340
If this water comes up any higher, he could
just get swept away and just roll that Gator down
508
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:23,760
We'll pick him up as crab bait down there, so go get him.
509
00:36:24,300 --> 00:36:26,680
I know. Quit talking dad.
510
00:36:28,940 --> 00:36:31,540
You try to tell him, and ah
511
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,580
Sometimes you get a little cavalier about it.
512
00:36:36,580 --> 00:36:38,460
I'm going to come save you.
513
00:36:38,460 --> 00:36:39,620
We'll see.
514
00:36:42,090 --> 00:36:43,060
You want to lift it?
515
00:36:43,060 --> 00:36:44,010
Yeah. Let's lift it.
516
00:36:45,050 --> 00:36:46,620
You sure you want to ride it?
517
00:36:46,620 --> 00:36:47,860
I'll ride it.
518
00:36:47,860 --> 00:36:48,760
Cuckoo.
519
00:36:50,740 --> 00:36:52,420
It's strapped real good.
520
00:36:58,280 --> 00:36:58,980
Hang on.
521
00:36:58,980 --> 00:37:00,930
Now you're messing with me, Todd.
522
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:02,730
What are you so scared of?
523
00:37:02,730 --> 00:37:07,420
You're only hanging off a 4-wheeler, over a rushing river.
524
00:37:07,420 --> 00:37:11,970
Hey Todd. You gotta be really careful
about dropping guys in the water there.
525
00:37:11,970 --> 00:37:14,000
(Todd laughs)
526
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:19,420
That water's so cold, turn you purple in a half a second.
527
00:37:21,570 --> 00:37:24,400
Now we got water coming up.
528
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,200
It's not just a little bit. It's a lot.
529
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:29,820
I hope they can get everybody back over here.
530
00:37:32,370 --> 00:37:34,420
This is the final push coming up.
531
00:37:34,420 --> 00:37:37,550
We got the deepest and fastest channel right ahead of us.
532
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:39,420
I'm good. Here we go.
533
00:37:43,710 --> 00:37:46,310
Five.. You better get on here.
534
00:37:46,310 --> 00:37:47,480
Hurry up!
535
00:37:48,750 --> 00:37:51,100
We've all worked so friggen hard for this man.
536
00:37:51,100 --> 00:37:54,660
and said, if I can't get this out now, we're screwed.
537
00:37:54,910 --> 00:37:56,440
How we looking?
538
00:37:56,620 --> 00:37:58,600
Gonna get deep here in a second.
539
00:37:59,510 --> 00:38:01,750
Okay. We're gonna go down.
540
00:38:01,750 --> 00:38:04,040
Gonna come over your toes in a second.
541
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:05,550
Oh boy.
542
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,280
Here we go. Here we go.
543
00:38:15,550 --> 00:38:16,750
Whoa.
544
00:38:20,100 --> 00:38:22,400
All together. Hurry up. Hurry up.
545
00:38:24,260 --> 00:38:27,040
Unhook the Gator. NOW!
546
00:38:34,060 --> 00:38:37,110
Hurry up. Hurry up. Unhook it.
547
00:38:37,110 --> 00:38:38,200
I will.
548
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:44,680
The team's excavator is stuck in freezing
water, as it tries to cross the rising Klihini River.
549
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:49,420
Their hopes of gold could be sunk,
before they've even gotten to the claim.
550
00:38:49,420 --> 00:38:51,130
Get the Gator out of there.
551
00:38:54,550 --> 00:38:56,220
Hang on.
552
00:39:08,530 --> 00:39:10,330
Keep going. Keep going.
553
00:39:10,330 --> 00:39:11,930
Is it rocking?
554
00:39:12,240 --> 00:39:13,530
Whoa.
555
00:39:13,530 --> 00:39:14,860
Walk it up.
556
00:39:17,970 --> 00:39:19,680
You got it.
557
00:39:20,820 --> 00:39:26,600
(excited cheers)
558
00:39:26,620 --> 00:39:29,110
My butt got clenched.
559
00:39:29,750 --> 00:39:33,640
That was, uh, about as close as you can get.
560
00:39:35,170 --> 00:39:38,330
Todd and the team have made it over the river.
561
00:39:38,330 --> 00:39:42,620
But now, they're off the public highways, and onto dirt roads.
562
00:39:42,620 --> 00:39:47,770
The last 9 miles to porcupine creek,
are the most dangerous yet.
563
00:39:47,770 --> 00:39:54,330
I don't care if I got to friggen walk, or how I,
or hitch hike on a friggen moose. I'm going in,
564
00:39:54,330 --> 00:40:00,130
It takes Kahunas to do this.
There's dangers, every time we turn around.
565
00:40:00,130 --> 00:40:04,710
I'm just worried about the front
3 vehicles getting out of Jack's way.
566
00:40:04,710 --> 00:40:08,200
The unloader's got the least amount of control.
567
00:40:09,110 --> 00:40:13,350
The unloader starts hopping, he can hop right off the road.
568
00:40:16,220 --> 00:40:21,400
My dad is just bouncing like crazy back there.
Think he's trying to go a little too quick.
569
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:25,510
Careful coming down this guys.
570
00:40:25,510 --> 00:40:26,840
Copy that.
571
00:40:29,550 --> 00:40:32,110
This is good. We're getting there. We're getting there.
572
00:40:32,110 --> 00:40:34,860
and this is a hairpin corner.
573
00:40:34,860 --> 00:40:41,350
Just 2 miles from the claim, lies an ice
covered hair pin bend with a sheer drop
574
00:40:41,350 --> 00:40:43,460
100 feet down to the river.
575
00:40:43,460 --> 00:40:47,910
I don't even know what to tell you on that.
Just hug that, hug that hillside the best you can.
576
00:40:52,710 --> 00:40:54,170
I'm getting out of the car.
577
00:41:01,770 --> 00:41:03,680
Be careful right there.
578
00:41:07,150 --> 00:41:08,660
What happened back there?
579
00:41:08,750 --> 00:41:11,880
I was sure that we were gonna
lose a wheel off of that cliff there.
580
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,680
Report to me how Jack looks around that thing.
581
00:41:15,710 --> 00:41:17,480
Jack's looking good.
582
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:20,200
Jack's always looking good. Why is that?
583
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:22,820
Not as bad as it could have been.
584
00:41:23,730 --> 00:41:25,730
Good teamwork, everybody.
585
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:28,440
We made it.
586
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:29,480
Yeeah.
587
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:31,060
Gawd, it feels good.
588
00:41:31,060 --> 00:41:34,710
Hey guys. We're arriving at Porcupine.
589
00:41:34,710 --> 00:41:36,620
This is our new home.
590
00:41:37,530 --> 00:41:40,200
This is the bridge to Porcupine Creek.
591
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:44,950
Look at the creek guys. It's flowing
big right now. Lot of snow melt.
592
00:41:44,950 --> 00:41:48,220
This feels awesome. It feels like I'm coming home.
593
00:41:53,240 --> 00:41:54,440
Look at those mountains.
594
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:55,170
Oh Jeez.
595
00:41:55,170 --> 00:41:56,660
This is amazing.
596
00:41:58,710 --> 00:42:01,880
They put everything they have on the line.
597
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:06,820
left their loved ones behind, and risked their livelihoods
598
00:42:06,820 --> 00:42:08,640
to be here.
599
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,730
This is where the gold is boys.
600
00:42:13,750 --> 00:42:18,860
(laughing)
601
00:42:18,860 --> 00:42:19,970
Alright man.
602
00:42:19,970 --> 00:42:21,310
Glad we made it.
603
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,880
Everything you see right here is ours.
604
00:42:25,460 --> 00:42:28,240
All this down here is ours.
605
00:42:28,240 --> 00:42:30,200
Up there is ours.
606
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:31,750
This is nuts.
607
00:42:31,750 --> 00:42:33,770
Dude, never seen anything like this before.
608
00:42:33,770 --> 00:42:35,130
Beautiful, isn't it?
609
00:42:35,130 --> 00:42:36,110
Who cares.
610
00:42:36,110 --> 00:42:37,860
We did it. We did it. We did it.
611
00:42:38,060 --> 00:42:38,900
We did it.
612
00:42:38,900 --> 00:42:39,790
Celebrations.
613
00:42:40,110 --> 00:42:41,260
We got plenty
614
00:42:42,410 --> 00:42:44,430
See how calm.
615
00:42:44,430 --> 00:42:45,150
Good job.
616
00:42:45,150 --> 00:42:46,190
Okay guys. Hey.
617
00:42:46,190 --> 00:42:49,890
This is the opportunity that we've all been talking about.
618
00:42:49,890 --> 00:42:53,400
We're gonna take it, right here, you're all millionaires.
619
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:56,350
The only thing is, you got to get it out of the ground.
620
00:42:57,530 --> 00:42:59,260
That's the whole theme.
621
00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,950
There isn't one man in America
622
00:43:03,950 --> 00:43:07,350
If he's got anything inside him
623
00:43:07,350 --> 00:43:10,570
wouldn't want to be here with us.
624
00:43:11,970 --> 00:43:14,860
My dad created the dream, and
625
00:43:14,860 --> 00:43:16,880
We all knew it was a dream.
626
00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:18,510
I definitely needed a dream.
627
00:43:18,510 --> 00:43:23,530
And we're in. We're all in now, Okay. And
628
00:43:23,530 --> 00:43:26,000
Now I'm gonna start kicking some ass.
629
