Faith, determination and human spirit abound in "Fight to Survive," which recounts stories of people's deadly ordeals in the outdoors. Accompanying survivors back to where harrowing events occurred is rock-climber Craig DeMartino, who is featured in the premiere episode. His right leg was amputated below the knee after a climbing accident, but he continued in his sport. In 2006 he became the first amputee to free-climb the 3,200-foot face of Yosemite's El Capitan in one day. Other stories tell of sailor Steven Callahan clinging to a raft in the Atlantic, fisherman Dean Ririe trapped by a boulder in icy water, and hiker Ted Porter falling into a glacial crevasse.

Ed Rosenthal set out for a short hike in Joshua Tree National Park, but in the heat of the day he became turned around and lost. His six-day ordeal of survival in blazing temperatures with no food or water is nothing short of miraculous.

The conclusion to Steven Callahan's survival tale after finding himself adrift.

Craig DeMartino examines the stories of other survivors he's met across the season. Their survival stories are all different, but Craig discovers that these survivors share more in common than you might think.

In Glacier National Park, a man falls into a glacial crevasse leaving him with a broken back and miles from help.
