No doctors, no dentist, no x-rays, nothing you could possibly save your life, and you get a toothache.

And it costs hundreds of thousand dollars for each person to get down there.

So the U.S.

takes it very seriously.

We go down in these ski-equipped cargo planes.

We leave from Christchurch on a C-17, if you're lucky.

If you're unlucky, you get a C-130 again, which is half the speed.

And they can only get provisions in or out of there about three months of the year.

So the station opens up in November, which is the beginning of their spring, going into their summertime.

And then it ends in February 15th.

And Sean, if you're not out by... Oops, sorry.

If you're not out by February 15th, you're there until November.

You're not going anywhere.

So it's an incredible environment.

And it's dark, by the way, it's dark, pitch black, three months of the year.

What's security like?

So, I actually had a friend.

There is one gun down there.

It's not... There is one gun down there.

It's a .45 caliber 1911.
