Most Dangerous Transports: Siberian Ice Road | Mega Transports | Free Documentary
A Mega Transport on one of the most dangerous roads in the world - the Siberian Ice Road. It doesn't forgive mistakes. It's treacherous. And unpredictable. A life-threatening adversary that has left many fractured and broken.
The Kolymar mountain range in eastern Russia - an inhospitable frozen landscape. With temperatures as low as fifty degrees below.
Only in winter, when the snow buries the underlying mudflats, is this region accessible at all - over the Ice Road.
One of the biggest businesses in the area involves transports to gold mines! Sometimes what they need is a colossal machine-like Komatsu D four hundred and seventy-five A. It's one of the biggest bulldozers in the world. It weighs in at a hefty eighty-six tons - far more than the world’s heaviest tank.
The mega transport route leads from the Russian Magadan through the tundra of Siberia for a total of one thousand kilometers.
Over snow-covered mountain passes, temporary bridges and unpaved ice roads.
There the truckers are on their own. Spare lines, workshops, rescue services of any kind - you won’t find any of these on the Ice Road! In order to reach the destination in time, the men will drive most of the way without breaks. Day and night.
The mine is basically still "hibernating." But in a few days, this year's digging will begin. And, if the transport and bulldozer don't make it there in time, the mine could lose an estimated ton of gold this season!
For the drivers an icy, brutal battle: "Man against Nature’s cold heart".

As a guy called Denis, i agree. 😂
Hats off 👏 to the brave trucking crew who risked their life through the deadliest cold.
I’m proud of this truck team. They completed a great job in an extreme weather.
Obviously They Are Truly Capable With The Russian Adventure Spirits. Finally They Reached To The Intended Destination.
@@naleenperera1969 the whole operation is a mess. The equipment wasn't even gone over before they left in such a precarious situation. Not something you would see in the west typically.

I can't even imagine if I was part of the team traveling that far with a freezing temperature. Thank you for the effort of this documentary!
It's only about 621 miles. Not actually as far as you'd expect. The length of the united states almost 3000 miles, and can be driven in less than a week.
@@chrisfrommrbeast Thats a 621 mile drive thats harder & more stressful than 99.9% of the population will ever know.

All the Ice Truckers deserve a lot of respect. Their job is not easy I have friends and family that also do ice trucking up north in canada it's mentally challenging job. You need balls of steel to do this job. They put their life on the line every time when they drive those roads. That's why we should respect all the truckers around the world without them nothing would be able to run.
Like they said "High risk,high reward", shout-out to these truckers and the guides. Watching documentary about life on harsh environments is more valuable than paying and watching movies in theatre
Imagine doing all these because you want to take good care of your family, hats off for this guys
Come on, it's a job, a hard one... But it's not like they're bleeding their souls out of their bodies. Try searching for North Sea fishermen, or the peruvian guano collectors. Mining it's also a dangerous job
or maybe for themselves,,maybe they want a good house or car,,u cant tell
Or maybe Ṃustáƒá Saadi from the hot Middle East and Jose from the hot Latin America just don't know what they are talking about and are envious of the character of those people? :-)))
Thanks Free Documentary. Another great upload. My ancestors came from Northern Russia and Siberia has always fascinated me, its danger and its beauty. Respect to these hardy Russian people.
you know its a hard and dangerous job, when 3 years of experience is a newcomer.
Exactly that...

Well he still behaves like one
yeah, but it's more of a '3 winters' really
@@ness2965 10 months a year winter there
So much time, effort, patience, teamwork and dedication put into this kind of job. I'm not complaining of being tired anymore. This is a whole nother level of "a job". I have so much respect for these men. Bravo!👏👏👏
they dont do it for pennies
Brutal! My grandpa was in Siberia as a POW during WW2 for 3 yrs!
"He didn't PUT THE F**KING CHAINS ON!" the narrator actually said it😂😂
The way he said it was hilarious too lol. He sounded like one of the characters from Thomas getting slightly annoyed 😆
Exactly so awesome that he actually said it 😂🙌🏼
Well done said sir SAVAGE 😂
Бархатные шторки с бахромой наше всё))) Супервайзер Валентинович одобряет.)))

People thought their job was difficult until they found this documentary. Great work!
Being a Canadian I recognize that squeaky snow and you know it’s cold when it sounds like that.
Some body told me snow is worse than sand on undercarrage
@@dennisholst4322 It's the salt they put on the roads
gotta love those brisk minus 40 mornings in canada

May God bless these truckers for their courage and strength.
Yeh totally, while there's millions of people starving and homeless in the world, your pathetic booming voice from the sky is going to watch over these guys. Moron.
No such thing as god, and it's not about courage and strength. It's about proper planning, making sure your equipment is in proper order, and knowing what you're doing.
@@mynameisray The ability of a proper planning comes from God.
@@nikokapanen82 - Uhh.. No.. It comes from thousands of years of evolution, trial and error, and understanding. If you want to believe in something that doesn't exist, go for it, but these abilities and achievements are mans and mans alone. If we left it up to people who thought praying and believing in some false deitie would make everything happen we would still be walking around like cavemen bonking one another on the head with sticks.
@@nikokapanen82 - And the fact that their are many different religions that all don't worship the some fake god tells you something. Either you're wrong, or they are wrong. I personally think you're all wrong for letting text in an old camp fire book written by some crank lead your life, but it is what it is.
We need more videos from Siberia ice roads, guys. Good job. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Russians are a tough bunch. Great video. I left New York for Florida because the winters were getting to difficult for this old man, after seeing this video I'm glad I did. I'm in my air conditioned condo with a constant 76 degrees F all year long. Thank you for entertaining me.
Can't ignore the equal amounts of hard work and bravery by this channel's team.
So you happily ignore the people who do this every day for decades? :-)))
I thought Snowrunner game was tough but after seeing this, I find it relatively easy.
Same
Same bruh!
Ice road expansion!
Those guys are tough...
Yeah, these guys can't just shoot out a winch like spider man every few feet. Gotta love those snow runner super powers!
Truckers doing a great job ❤️ Hats off to all of the transporters ❤️
Здраствуйте. Я смотрю ваши видео, а здесь случайно вас нашёл ☺.
Respect to those guys! Real tough conditions! Real professionals!
Can we all appreciate the smoothness of the transition with the crack windshield and the line in the snow at 37:52
I used to do runs of construction materials throughout the mountains of southern oregon and northern California. It was scary as hell allot of the time and I felt so hard core. I'm thinking these guys would laugh at me. They got my respect.
Hahahahaaha!! I feel the same, with my tranportation job!!
🤣🤣
Hwy97 from Bend Oregon to Redding California is no joke!
That's actually good. Treat everything as dangerous or needed a careful drive that way you are truly safe.
Honestly, this road looks pretty tame. Most of there issues seem to be basic lack of preparation. You'd be worse of doing winter logging in Maine or NH let alone Oregon.
These videos makes youtube valuable.
yessssssss
No our saviours, Mr.Beast and PewDiePie and FlyingKitty makes youtube valuable. This channel for example its almost like BBC.
Your comments make KZhead valuable, hari krishna. 👁 👁 👄 and you make the world a better place.

@Jhon Krasnovskiy what is an autist?
Mad respect for this. I can not imagine the cold in Siberia and the amount of courage and brains for the ice road with that amount of Tons. Wow is all I have to say. Now when I circle check my haul truck Kamatsu 830Es I will think it's not as cold as it is in Siberia don't rush.
Ice road truckers in Canada and truckers in US take a bow…salutations ☝️👍👏🙏
This narrator is the best ever hear. Such a strong voice. Russian truck driver there are really fighters.
Are you serious,!i am english,every time i hear him say 'mega' i feel like crying.
It would be better if the narrator was accurate. So much is incorrect to make it sound dangerous that it's a joke.
Dillon Sykes Mister Please tell me is this Narrator native English speaker ? By the way I’m not ELTS Teacher. And My life rule is don’t blame anyone. Every Person deserves respect even your enemy.
@@seadbiberovic7791 You say, "Every person deserves respect, even your enemy"???? How about 'disrespectable, and/or disrespectful people? Your assertion sounds like so much pap.
These truckers really deserve a very big bonus! I have a great deal of respect for these truckers. J.C. Moes. (68) Lelystad the Netherlands. Уважайте вас, ребята, много уважения!
This is a hell of a job. Hats off to these brave men.
What a simply job is this....are you mad...🤔
Здоровья нашим ребятам..без слез нельзя смотреть
The bulldozer they brought to the mine was in mint condition while the bulldozer at the end looked used with peeled off paint and it even seemed smaller
Got it ☺ makes sense
Russian maskirovka, they fooled you.
@Mellivora Capensis 😂
@OAT351 if the dialogue is unscripted and they're trying to do things maybe it's not fake. I mean 20 years have passed, some things change.
@OAT351 This isn't actually a 'reality' TV Show. Its a Documentary.
This video showed up on my recommendations just after buying snowrunner
sergio7D dude same here
Same
yup
Showed up for me after reinstalling Euro Truck 2. The invasive overreach of corporations is getting out of control.
I downloaded snowrunner for free days before it was released
Hi everyone I'm also a mountain trucker in Pakistan 🇵🇰 But I salute to these guys for there hard work.... Take care everyone ❤ & also take care of others on the road
What a nonsense you are talking about ... this is really simply job i have bieng done with 15 years 😕😕
Wow 😍🥰 what an adventure,what a good experience😍😍😊😊🥰🥰 from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰❤️🥰
This was too stressful to keep watching...and I'm just watching!
💚
Kudos to these hard working truckers! God bless them, what a dangerous job
Kudos to the trucking crew who achieved this unbelievable journey by risking their life.
I have never seen snow or such ice, I have lived in the tropics all my life - these kind of documentaries fascinate me!
You are the lucky one.
What a f....k are you talking about ... visit and see...
46:50 That's not the bulldozer that we were seeing throughout the entire trip. 47:20
I was thinking the same thing lol.
The commentator actually makes the scenes sound deadly or worse before they happen, even though the transporters easily make it through the situation!
Yep, narrator needs to tell their story, not dramatize every easily-solved little problem. We all know it’s dangerous and respect their work, but don’t need the drama queen narration.
You did a great job my dear Russian brothers,🌹 It's more than gold mine to me ❤️from Sri Lanka🇱🇰👍
After I watch this, I realize we are so lucky living in the city with wide and clean road. Salute to them who transport that giant bulldozer, need extraordinary skill and experience to make that transport can be done without mistakes.
"Супервайзер Валентинович" звучит интересно:)

Thank you for this free documentary!! I really enjoyed it!
Thank you for watching!
My trucking days were challenging, but nothing similar to this! Great work!
I did some math. Over the whole trip, these absolute legendary drivers averaged 12.5 km/hr.

Thank you! the content is educational and at the same time fantastic.
Greetings from Algeria to the great team. I love Siberia. I hope to work with this great team
26:57 --> WOW!!! Respect and humbled by your profession and any other of the sort.
This is real trucking. Snowy weather, havy load and no pop songs on the radio.
What does the music have anything to do with it
@@joshmcaloon6998 everything or anything
Ужас просто, вот ето настоящий мужчина! Красавчики!
It feels like we're on the chilly side of KZhead. Good job by the camera crew for filming in those conditions, but literally no words to describe about those drivers.
This is what I do . I learn a lot, more experience added to my job, USA and Canada, nice job 🇷🇺
This is what i do also here in dubai And I'll like to work also in USA or CANADA.@ jiddo inbox me your gmail ad.
Driving a passenger car over Siberian winters for 18 years, i have seen a lot of situations, similar to the one above. Sometimes people died of cold, being jammed in a cabin. i always drove fully dressed, to be ready for the worst.
I like how they tried to pass the old dozer at the end as the one they brought up there lol
The guy that had to put the blade on that dozer probably gave them the middle finger.
@@gurugump4327 lol ya funk that noise
imagine telling the siberian chief site that you want to mount up and gear the new dozer just for a shot after all they have been through
Yeah, I saw that. Hahaha! ^..^~~
“Are we gonna wait for them to hook up the dozer?” Then they all laughed and laughed, it was a great time!
I respect this drivers
I guess I should NOT complain about it being colder than usual down here in the Southern US 🇺🇸 🤔 These Russians have balls of steel! They deserve much respect! 🇷🇺
Nah if their balls were steel, they would have been frozen solid....
If been trucking for 20 years and I’m still a rookie you learn every day something new
I love my Australia. You ice truckers. Awesome. Amazing. Fantastic.. The challenges yous face amazing. Keep on truckin.
20 years ago I had an employee from Russia actually Soviet Union who after his time in the Soviet/Afghanistan war drove in that area of Siberia. But it wasn't as cushy as it is now. He also didn't just drive from Magadon to the Gold mines but he would caravan all the way from Czechoslosvokia in Eastern Europe to Magadon which is easily 5 times as long as this trip. He had some stories to tell. He wasn't hauling that kind of weight though but I remember about how the route was only useable in the winter and also all the cold requirements shown in this video how the trucks and cargo would run weeks and weeks straight and how the engine would freeze solid in minutes if turned off. I know they had to carry a lot of fuel with them. They used 6 axle Tatra all wheel drive vehicles with 2 driven front axles and four in the back, Ex Soviet missile carriers if I remember correctly. and they didn't use fifth wheel trailers (which I always thought was weird) but hauled wagon style trailers. Interesting to see this video now wish I could show it to him now for comment.
Wow! My hats off to these very brave men I can't begin to imagine all of the difficulties and adversity to face!
If you know my job you will hats off thousand times 😢
Drivers did a great job! We need to learn from those guys
a profound documentary !
I was exhausted by the end of this video!!
Hahahahaha same
Did you know that outside of America they make documentaries where the narrator doesn't talk like that?
But how can people possibly understand and enjoy a documentary if the narrator doesn't talk like that? I feel sorry for non-Americans. Probably have documentaries that are narrated by some posh British gentleman who swallowed a dictionary. 👁 👁 👄
i can''t watch when they use that low brow, kind of fake dubbing, very irritating......and i'm Canadian
What do you mean, "fake dubbing"? I thought all Russians were masters of ventriloquism and just like to show off their skills 👁 👁 👄

I was impressed with the team work and hard effort those guys put in except the greenhorn broke a rule but I hope he’d learned a valuable lesson from his mistakes. Hope to see more ice roads videos them.
U really think that was the case, or was it for the show 🤭🤦♂️
As a fellow trucker,you got to have nerves of steel this is nuts
Much respect for the drivers! Really good narrator anyway!
I am a train and I approve this footage.
thanks for your team for taking such efforts to film the documentary in freezing cold .I have experienced minus 16 degrees temp at buffalo in US it nightmare for me. Thanks
Great vid. Excellent work by the transporter. Love from Botswana - temperature now is +35
Amazing what you can do with just 480hp and a massive rear axle ratio. Big up to the TGX on this one.
Interesting/informative/entertaining. Excellent motion picture 📷 photography pictures/maps.stimulated drawings of trucks with their cargo. Enabling viewers to better understand what the orator was describing. Special thanks to veteran drivers/road crews.⛄⛄ Sharing personal information/driving 🚗experiences. Making this documentary more authentic/differentiating facts from fiction.

One of the best documentary. Icy road, road of bones, siberian road. Very tough journey. Russian are strong people. I wish, I could visit siberia. Thanks! Free documentary. Good effort.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love the way that guy/in the commentary, categorizes the Russian people, as if they were one person.
It's nearly to the impossible!!but with all difficulties the journey is through. The spare tyres could have been transported by the leader's SUV it would have solved the problem. God bless the drivers 🙏🙏
Now that was nice to see. I love the snow and big equipment. I really enjoyed this episode.
A very realistic Documentary. The Realality of a life threatening Job.And that's why it's better as a team then a one man Showboat.
Watching this I realised what true hard work really looks like!
These are some tough jobs which can only be done by some tough people. God bless them
Incredible story and good work team
This was a amazing documentary 👍
Великолепная операторская работа!
It would've helped if you guys gave a constant update on the temperature, its by far the scariest and most interesting part of this whole video.
When they were changing the tire at night it was -40 °C Jeeeez
I love these kind of documentaries, atlaest we gain knowledge, but the life of a driver, is much difficult, and so risky.
The machine shown at end of video is not the same one they hauled up there.
You are right! That is very suspicious. I liked the documentary, until I saw this. 🧐
