- This 1943 War Department training film (T.F. 1-3403) instructs viewers on how to survive a crash landing in an arctic climate. The film follows an Army Air Forces pilot, Hardy, as he recalls his survival training, which is presented as an internal dialogue between the pilot and his instructor. The film’s second reel begins with Hardy fighting to get a tree out of the snow. He walks back to the plane and cuts out wire from the wing flaps. He takes the parachute and wire back to where his fire is (01:34). He uses the tree pole he wrestled free to make a center pole for a shelter. He uses more poles to create a sloped wall and covers it with spruce branches. The wind and snow begin to pick up as he finishes his shelter (04:05). He collects more tree boughs to pack down onto the floor of the shelter to serve as insulation. Hardy goes to light a cigarette with a match, but then he remembers to conserve his matches. Hardy takes off the nose of the plane and uses the cone as a pot to melt snow (06:06). As he melts snow, he unrolls the parachute to function as his sleeping bag (07:55). At night, he wakes up to the sound of wolves (09:26). Back at the base, the men divide up flight areas for the search (10:32). The film cuts back to the crash site where the plane is blanketed with snow. Hardy lights a smoke fire, mixing green and dry wood and adding oil. He finds a rabbit run and sets a snare with wire from the plane (12:48). Hardy dusts snow off his plane to assist any search. Hardy makes a windbreak for his shelter (15:24). The film shows Hardy drying his boots and socks over the heat of his fire, further insulating his shelter with snow, and making improvised snowshoes (17:06). He snowshoes to his snare, where he finds a rabbit. He eats the stewed meat at his shelter. Hardy uses tree branches to write out a large SOS on the snow (19:32). He hears what appears to be a Martin B-26 Marauder (or a B-17) flying overhead, and he waves at the airplane. The pilots see Hardy and circle back around, airdropping supplies to the stranded pilot (21:36). Hardy does an inventory of the supplies he received, looking through the emergency kit and extra clothing. Hardy cooks dinner inside his improved shelter (24:20). He climbs into a sleeping bag and faces the fire. A plane lands on a snow field, and men unload a dog sled and dogs from the cargo bay (25:42). The dogs pull the sled through forests and deep snow. The two-man rescue team and dogs arrive at the crash site to find Hardy resting in his shelter (27:40). Hardy rides in the sled away from the crash site. The film ends with a shot of a pilot who was in a similar situation and didn’t know what to do; the camera pans out to reveal his amputated legs.

Wooh, that ending was graphic. The sensors would definitely not let you do that now.
When you’re in cold weather always check your toes, that’s good advice.
Also your fingers, nose and ears.
YOu know he will be ok when you start getting happy music at 6:15. lol
The difference between a debacle and an adventure is attitude and preparedness. That's a pretty luxurious lean-to. Nicely done. Good snowshoes, too, considering the situation.
And that survival kit had everything except Rita Hayworth in a silk teddy, or that Little Blond in Edmonton. :)
Yes, up North you've got the awesome Willows... Always pliable to bend & twist & make whatever you need!
Moose love 'em too!
I LOVE these films! 💕
Thank you :)
This reminds me of one of my favourite movies; "Island In The Sky" with John Wayne...
From the directors of The Andy Griffith show, almost looks like fun, then there's reality. This is probably Northern CA vs -80F. But in ideal conditions, being prepared is the matter of life or death.
Lord that looks cold
5:10
I totally thought that this mad man just stuck a cigarette up his nose
What is the name of the actor that played Hardy?
Best Wishes! M.H.
Wish I had a BIC"
This would be Al right if it wasn’t for darn clock going!
Here's the issue: Tens of thousands of films similar to this one have been lost forever -- destroyed -- and many others are at risk. Our company preserves these precious bits of history one film at a time. How do we afford to do that? By selling them as stock footage to documentary filmmakers and broadcasters. If we did not have a counter, we could not afford to post films like these online, and no films would be preserved. It's that simple. So we ask you to bear with the watermark and timecodes.
In the past we tried many different systems including placing our timer at the bottom corner of our videos. What happened? Unscrupulous UA-cam users downloaded our vids, blew them up so the timer was not visible, and re-posted them as their own content! We had to use content control to have the videos removed and shut down these channels. It's hard enough work preserving these films and posting them, without having to spend precious time dealing with policing thievery -- and not what we devoted ourselves to do.
Love our channel and want to support what we do? You can help us save and post more orphaned films! Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/PeriscopeFilm Even a really tiny contribution can make a difference.
Sun Valley Idaho....or.... Northern California......wasn't the Arctic..!?
