Have you even seen that series of Ice Road Truckers, that is more crazy, some can go right through the ice and freeze with-in minutes.

Have you read the books by Ewan McGregor & Charlie Boorman?
They toured on motorbikes through Russia etc...hooked up with russian truckers to get across some rivers - those guys KNOW what they are doing.

No but I did catch some of the Discovery show (the long way round or something)

Had some pretty cool bits.
