Episode notes

Now if you have been one of the people swept up in the TV show Alone, you are going to love this episode, because Ada Blackjack, is a woman, who makes the Alone contestants look like amateurs. Ada Blackjack was stranded on Wrangle Island, in the Arctic Ocean, for more than 2 years. Her four male explorer companions all perished in the harrowing conditions. Not only that, when she arrived on Wrangle Island, she had zero survival skills. Everything she learned, she taught herself after the men had disappeared and died.
