Overview

Adrift in the open ocean could you beat the elements and avoid death? Would YOU know what to do? Ross McFadyen spent 12 years as a survival instructor for the U.S. Air Force. He's been in every conceivable sea survival situation. In this episode, Ross jumps overboard from a sailboat, gets stranded in a life raft, and shows you how to defend yourself against sharks. He advises that you should prepare ahead of time, stay positive, and make the most of the environment around you. While you can't predict what crazy disasters will happen to you if you go to sea, you sure can have a better chance of survival with Ross McFadyen's knowledge.
