Ice Road Truckers

Why Not Work At The Top Of The World

In 2000, The History Channel, as part of the Suicide Missions series, aired a pilot episode titled Ice Road Truckers. Based on the book Denison's Ice Road by Edith Iglauer, the episode detailed the treacherous job of driving trucks over frozen lakes, also known as ice roads, in Canada's Northwest Territories .

After 2000, reruns were aired as an episode of the series Modern Marvels. Under this banner, the Ice Road Truckers show garnered very good ratings.

In 2006, The History Channel hired the executive producer of Deadliest Catch, to create a series based on the Ice Road Truckers episode.

The series' premiere was seen by 3.4 million viewers to become the most-watched original telecast in the History Channel's 12-year history at that time.
