How People Live in Antarctica | Life in the Coldest Place on Earth | 4K Documentary

Every February, the last plane leaves Antarctica. For the people who stay behind, there are no flights in, no flights out, and no way home for six months. In this 4K documentary, we live one full year at the bottom of the world: the survival school where newcomers sleep in snow trenches, the summer town at McMurdo, the day the door closes, the long polar night, a daring midwinter rescue flight to the South Pole, the hidden worlds beneath the ice, and the morning the sun finally returns. And we try to answer the strangest question of all: why do so many people who survive it sign up to go back? 🌍 Where are you watching from?
