From living among polar bears, to servicing the world's northern most airport, the incredible engineers behind these innovative machines break down these groundbreaking inventions and prove how they help us to survive in conditions that could otherwise be deadly.

But what happens when these engineering marvels are on the verge of disaster? In IMPOSSIBLE FIXES, viewers meet the dedicated maintenance crews who race against the clock to ensure critical infrastructures are operating as designed every day. In California, fearless technicians' work at terrifying heights to keep a famous tramway safe.
