Man Vs. Animal, Sub Vs. Polar Bear: So you are a badass Commander in the U.S. Navy, with one of the world’s most sophisticated weapons platforms–a Los Angeles class nuclear attack sub–under your feet. You are ordered to the ice fields at the top of the world, to within 280 miles of the North Pole to do some classified bullsh*t and collect water samples (water samples!? with a billion dollar sub? note to Navy: get a mission..). Only you can’t get out of the damn boat, because you are imprisoned by 3 curious polar bears. Maybe they were Russian? At least the Navy only shot pictures…
