Force of Nature

Channel 4's series Force of Nature goes in search of the men and women who have got up close and personal with nature in its rawest state. There is little left to the imagination as they battle through the bitter freeze of a Mount Everest storm, the colossal winds and waves of the Southern Ocean, the devastation of an avalanche, the breathtaking speed of the transatlantic jet stream, and more.

If you're tempted to try out the elements yourself, check out some survival tips first. But if you're an armchair thrill-seeker then you might like to discover more about nature's greatest forces from the comfort of your own home.
