A survival film made during the Cold War, this film attempts to give practical advice to airmen who find themselves stranded in the "desert without sand" -- the arctic tundra. As the U.S. military began seeing the polar regions as a potential battleground with the Soviet Union, more and more flights were made into these regions, and the need for films like this one greatly increased. In this film the crew of a C-119 Flying Boxcar bails out and must survive in trying circumstances.
This film is part of the Periscope Film LLC archive, one of the largest historic military, transportation, and aviation stock footage collections in the USA. Entirely film backed, this material is available for licensing in 24p HD. For more information visit www.PeriscopeFilm.com

I remember when my SR 71 went down over Treasure Island. My waist gunner, Lt Magor MacGyver, and I built a 17 room hut from drift wood and palm leaves. That first night we had gluten free chicken Parmigiano and pasta that we were able to scrounge from the surf using our helmets. We used some loose odds and ends to build a particle accelerator which we used to create bio engineered fuel for the rocket sled we were designing. Turned out that the Swedish Bikini team showed up on day three for a private retreat where they were going to work out their nymphomania issues. Well two weeks later we were back at our secret base in Vegas.

Better than the desert one though where the "Captain" forced his men to suffer and like it in the desert for 4 days before finally opening the map to realize there's a base within treking distance...and then HE was the big hero in the end who saved them. no sense of irony or anything.

What a great survival film, when the rescue plane first comes into view, it almost makes you want to wave back! This film reminds me of a very good motion picture called "Island in the Sky" starring John Wayne co -starring Lloyd Nolan, James Arness, Andy Devine, Harry Carey JR. and others. In the movie their plane also strays off course with fuel running out, they had to crash land on a frozen lake in an unforgiving area of the subarctic! So, they didn't have any berries fish or native birds to eat. But they had to somehow survive! It's 109 minutes long, so you may want to make some popcorn.

I was raised in Alaska. In Boy Scouts many of our leaders were retired military. They all knew how to make shelters out of parachutes. Elaborate chainsawed shelters that would hold a bunch of people and were very comfortable and warm - even in winter. I always wondered how their survival skills all assumed you soft landed a C130 full of fuel parachutes, parachute cord, bailing wire, tools, chainsaws and food. Now I know.

Yeah we all get it's a moral boost movie and meant to show what could be done to survive a bleak situation while also pointing out the issues that could arise. This is a fantastic film because it really shows both the good and foolish sides of human nature. It does gloss over how long they were stuck there though. Everyone's just being satiracal out of respect cause it is so well done. There are others from the era that are outright terrible...like the Jungle one where the entire crew left the pilot to die and the narrator and moral of the story is "DOn't be the pilot in this situation." when they ABANDONED him and didn't care that he died in the end. That one was genuinely awful.

XD When he said "We could give the Waldorf competition" I thought the same thing, but that's what makes this video so great. Optimism maximizes the chance of survival. Unlike the others which treats being lost as a "sending their crews to their deaths, Lord of the Flies style (the Jungle and desert group ones...), this one really shows a team that actually wants to live to see another mission and isn't using thier bad situation as an excuse to act like they should've never touched grass. Homeboy made KITES. Shoot makes me want to actually go camping rather than stay home! That's what makes a good survival video.

One thing these guys had going for them was that back in that time, most boys were in Boy Scouts, or lived on farms and learned a lot of the outdoorsman skills that "modern people" no longer carry on Our lack of farms and the destruction of Boy Scouts has given way to social media and electronic games. Our military does teach some survival skills, but without the foundation - it doesn't stick as easy. It's true that GPS may have saved these guys, but I think the outdoor skills are sadly missing - even us boomers enjoy a different, more wild childhood.

I was a Cub then a Scout for a short time. I tell you now that from what I remember I learned. That I too could survive this if I had a box of popsicle sticks and a bottle of white glue. This was ingrained in us. In that little basement room of the Salvation Army in the city. Frankly you learn more from KZbin like this vid. But they made one big mistake. Any free time they should have 2 guys constantly searching for fire wood. Cold, wind or breeze and soaking clothes, especially boots and socks would be lethal. That was a massive oversight for a survival video.

I was taught enough in Boy Scouts to safely spend a couple of nights if delayed in the eastern woods. And to self rescue if needed. And when I left Home I would spend many nights in the outdoors while working my jobs as a young Man. I could do that because of Scouts. And when my Kids were in scouting. Me and some other parents all went out of our way to make our Children real world Rocky Mountain Survivers. Our Kids are Highly Skilled. And have continued to build those skills as young Adults. Best Wishes from Montana! M.H.

Picture two 55gal drums top and button off and placed on high ground and 2 troops laying in them on watch during the winter. I never got cold only wet. Horizonal rain and dangerous winds.

To me, this seems more like a Training Film, but not positive. Back in 1958 while in the USAF, i was going to Goose Bay Labrador for the Tops In Blue contest. We flew from Iceland to Newfoundland in a MATS C-54, and then boarded a C-119 for the flight to Goose, which if i recall, was about 2-2 1/2 hours. We were required to wear parachutes. We had been told that about a month before, a C-119 and lost an engine and had gone down somewhere in the Canadian Arctic...same general area where we were headed. We flew at 7000 feet, didn't need oxygen, and i think this was sometime in early April. It was a scary flight for us "ground Airmen", but glad to say both flights up and back, were uneventful. Then flew C-54 back to Keflavik.
