I was quite happy to see that DSC episode of Extreme Machines. The trucks they showed were Arctic Trucks which is a large 4x4 company in Iceland.

The explosion for filling a tire is not myth it's really handy to do when it's very cold out.

The kettle holes in the glaciers are very dangerous which is what those long "wheelie bars" you saw. They are long poles that help keep you topside of the glacier.
