REALITY BYTES

Before you dismiss “Ice Road Truckers ” as some show that Weird Al Yankovic dreamed up for his UHF station, don’t pass up on this one yet. Ice Road Truckers has a real frozen bite that will sink into your bones and chill you out this coming summer; even in the 90+ degree heat, without any shade. “Ice Road Truckers” is not your average, tepid reality TV show at all. This series is very upfront and extremely real. If your career happens to be working with hungry sharks, without a net; Ice Road Truckers will still leave you shivering with viewer anticipation.

The History Channel is airing season 2 of their reality show, “Ice Road Truckers” this coming Sunday. If it is anything like last season’s run, this reality based show will give you an inside seat next to those cold as Ice truckers, that drive their loaded down rigs across the frozen tundra, to deliver essential supplies, to those that need to survive the frozen environment, and more.

Why would anyone risk hauling several tons of cargo, in a semi-truck across frozen lakes and rivers, putting themselves in constant perils? The money and the adventure.

Climate conditions on these wild treks, have to be just perfect, else these truckers lose everything; including their lives. These guys put it on the line every winter, doing the unthinkable, for a lot of money, putting everything at stake!

This Sunday evening, the History Channel kicks off season 2 of “Ice Road Truckers” with a recap of last season, to bring everyone up to date.

This video clip below, sums it all up.
