This winter, Bellini plans to travel to the west coast of Greenland, select an iceberg, and survive on it for an entire year.
As a message on his website explains, "Clinging to that piece of drifting ice, Alex will spend up to 12 months to witness the last phase of its long life, while managing with a constantly changing environment. As the iceberg will get smaller and less stable Alex Bellini will have to adapt himself to the new situation."
...
Bellini won't be out there on that slowly shrinking hunk of ice in a store-bought tent. Instead, he'll be living in a special "survival capsule" created by engineers at a Washington state-based company. The spherical domicile is designed to withstand disaster-intensity physical forces and is equipped with watertight doors and air supply tanks, in addition to GPS equipment that will track its location.

In a couple of months, we’ll hear the dramatic story of how he is stranded and awaiting a daring rescue because the iceberg is either melting or capsizing, or breaking apart. Then half a dozen brave men and women will risk their lives to save this narcissistic idiot from his own folly so he can write a book and appear on Oprah.
Lol
Will he urinate and defecate on the beloved iceberg? This fool is an eco-terrorist.
Another great video. Thanks.
