Description: .com The Ice Road Truckers series generates its addictively dramatic mileage with a -pronged approach, where the dangers of the environment are both echoed and amplified by the volatile personalities of the drivers themselves. Set upon the mind-bendingly unsafe highways of South America, this second season of Deadliest Roads not only finds a location where the threats loom from every angle, but also features a cast locked in seemingly perpetual squabble with their fellow haulers. (If these trucks had passenger-side ejector seats, they'd be firing off every episode.) After dispatching with some of its returning crew in surprisingly short order, the show focuses on IRT fixtures Hugh Rowland and Lisa Kelly, veterans with no love lost for each other. As they attempt to deliver their fragile cargos to places only accessible by some infamously lethal routes (sample names: the Death Road, Dead Nun Canyon), they find their task further complicated with the addition of rookies looking to rise to the top of the heap. Every mile brings on a different cliffhanger, usually literally. For a show with such an iron-clad formula, IRT manages to find an impressive variety of backdrops for its characters to precariously barrel through, with each installment revealing another jaw-dropping series of mountain peaks and cramped tunnels for exploration. (The episode in which Lisa and another trucker must haul a herd of llamas through miles of salt flats has an eerie sci-fi feel.) While the setups may come across a bit contrived at times--delivering a load of fireworks on a road that just happens to be on fire? What are the odds?--the white-knuckle coolness of the activities never diminishes. Viewers prone to vertigo should proceed with caution. --Andrew Wright Product Description The road to success can be deadly. In the second season of IRT DEADLIEST ROADS, Lisa, Hugh and Rick, three of the toughest North American truckers, are driven to extremes in of the world's most unforgiving environments: The Andes. As they cross borders to navigate the highways of South America, this fearless trio encounters some of the deadliest roads in history. Everything they've learned in more than 40 years of combined experience is tested in nerve-rattling conditions they've never experienced before. Whether it's driving along 1,000-foot cliffs or dodging avalanches, skill and ingenuity go full-throttle. Factory sealed
