The polar regions are zones of enduring mystery. The Arctic region has its fair share of unanswered questions. For instance, why are there 3 poles – the geographic North Pole, the magnetic North Pole and the Pole of Inaccessibility? Did Admiral Richard Byrd really reach the North Pole? What can we learn from the many historical traditions that state that the North Pole is home to a gigantic mountain or tree at the center of the world? How is the North Pole connected to the Old World? Do lost civilizations exist in these forbidden regions? Why does international law restrict access to these areas? This video includes information on Montreal, Iceland, Thule and other areas inside the Arctic Circle.
