Survival Science

Nick and Laura create tests to explore the immense power and startling speed of grizzly bears; they use Hollywood stunt tools to experience an attack and then try to recreate a miracle arrow shot that saved a man from being killed by a bear.

In addition to marksmanship and long-range shooting, military snipers are trained in a variety of skills: detection, stalking, camouflage, infiltration, special reconnaissance and target acquisition.

Laura and Nick travel to a state-of-the-art direct effects lightning test lab. With some "explosive" experiments, they'll determine the power of lightning, and they'll find out how hunters and fishermen can protect themselves.

Nick and Laura experience Nature's fury through storm amazing generating gear that simulates terrible hurricanes, ice cold winds and even tornados. For these experiments they'll use remarkable technology that creates massive storms on Hollywood sets.
