Insight into a Sailor's Life

Denmark students get a harsh education when they’re set to work on a 60m-long sail ship

Denmark students get a harsh education of life at sea when they’re set to work on a 60m-long sail ship. Stuck together on the three-month trip, shipmates, Maria and Thomas, tell us the ups and downs of being one of Captain Opi Nelson’s hardworking crew.

Also on the show, the winners of the Edge’s Bicycle Competition; the student exchange system that lets young people study overseas at very low cost; and part two of The Captain Cosmos' guide to Doomsday.
