"Have you ever had that sinking feeling that you've just been dropped off to the wrong place by a taxi? You look around at an unfamiliar building thinking to yourself "Whoops, this can’t be right?" as you watch the taxi cab taillights fade into the distance?," says Storm Hunter Mark Robinson on day one of his Arctic adventure. "Try that when it's an outcropping of rock in the middle of nowhere on the edge of the Arctic ocean as it starts to rain."
Tonight's episode of Storm Hunters explores the furthest reaches of the North-West Passage to unearth the most extreme and awe-inspiring natural phenomena in the Arctic.

Robinson adds that despite the initial nerves and uneasy feelings, he was excited about this Arctic voyage with incredible potential.
"This was going to be a trip of a lifetime," Robinson recalls. "I just had to make sure that I managed to document it in every way possible. And make sure it was compelling and incredible. "

Another view of that massive iceberg. It looks like it was once part of an ice shelf in northern Greenland. pic.twitter.com/w18CNksnFO
