- I was contacted by Channel 7 in Australia
about doing a project in Newfoundland. They had a team that was
travelling to North America, and they wanted to film a story
about icebergs. In particular, they were interested in climbing
one and planting a satellite tracking beacon on top. Since I
already had experience doing
this, I agreed to help them out, and
the next thing I know I'm off to Conception Bay to meet up with
them and my old friends Rick Stanley & John Oliviero from
Ocean Quest, who were part of the team when I did this the first
time, back in 2015. This iceberg seemed stable, but it actually
rolled about 2 1/2 hours before I climbed, it, then it rolled
again a couple of hours after I got off. Thank you to Rick Stanley,
Johnny Oliverio and rest of the team at Ocean Quest for helping
to keep me safe.
