Alive! Sixty Days Under The Snow (2012)

This is the story of Peter Skyllberg, who defied the weather, biology and human science by surviving for 60 days inside a car buried under snow with nothing but sandwiches and snow to eat or drink. Skyllberg was eventually rescued by a man on a passing snowmobile. This incredible special tells Skyllberg's story of survival and explores the implications he has for the future of medical science and our understanding of the limits of human endurance. This exclusive documentary will air never-before-seen interviews with first responders on the scene, local acquaintances and friends from his hometown, as well as expert testimony from the doctors on the limits of human endurance in light of this case.
