Alaska Missing Person, Update on my friend
Crave Life Episode 51
Many of you have asked and continue to ask what happened to my friend, Vladimir Kostenko, that disappeared in December 2019.
This video was a difficult one to make and was a challenge to edit considering the circumstances.
I also want to use this opportunity to thank-you for the overwhelming comments and support you have provided during this period of time. I am just a no-body up here in Alaska that tried to share and bring awareness to a very unfortunate event. Sadly, this is far from the only one. These types of things keep happening and good people are forever lost.
Take the time to always stop and analyze your plan A, B and C. What will you do when get in trouble wh...

Mental Strength inside a Russian ICE BATH

Crave Life Episode 48 My forefathers and heritage had a remarkable tool in developing mental strength. This old tradition dates back to the 15th century during the Tsardom period of the Russian Empire. Perhaps the term “Crazy Russian” has origins to the ice holes of the freezing motherland. I live in Alaska, which offers an exceptionally good climate for making a traditional Russian Ice hole. I...

With the right winds, they can fly up alongside the mountains for hours. Wind coming up the mountain valley hits the slopes and creates a narrow band of lift. This type of flying is called ridge soaring. When learning to paraglide, you w...

      It's not the same. Tail Number N3054V is the one that crashed. The DC4 in the Video is N96358 which was damaged in a runway overrun in 2020 and wasn't repaired ever since. Don't know if it will be repaired in the future or if this fatal crash was the end of the commercial usage of the DC4.

    These rescues are serious. A local lady got lost with her kids. They had to get search and rescue from 2 villages to search for her. She had a rifle, and had to shoot a moose so she and her kids had something to eat to survive. Seriously. This is ALASKA. It is not Chicago or metro Dallas. 656,000 square miles of wilderness. 1/3 the size and 1,000 miles longer than the continental United States. You don't vacation here unless you're on a Princess or Norwegian Cruise Lines passenger ship. One service area for medical aid is the size of the state of West Virginia. Alaska is BIG. God bless these search and rescue boys. Pray for them, their job is real hard I know a guy who's probably one of Alaska's top 10 search and rescue guys. He's an Eskimo. Has serious tracking skills and can live off the land and keep them alive if he finds them that way. King of stink weed and traditional herbal lore. Don't come up here and adventuring fool! Try something light hearted like the base of My. Everest. Go out with safari guides and real outfitters. LOCALS and natural born Alaskans get lost in Alaska. Only the Jeremiah Johnson's and Grizzly Adams survive up here. This is real and dangerous frontier wilderness!! Princess or Norwegian Cruise Lines: book your vacation now.

    a little detail: "Berlin Airlift during World War II" probably you mean the Berlin Blockade which was 24 June 1948 - 12 May 1949. WWII ended in 1945. It was the Cold War, though. And those Raisin Bombers were very welcome!

    Directors note: work on editing. Too much repetition in imagery flying. Shore up some of the dead space. Video should have been about 30% shorter. Think about narrative structure. Clear beginning, middle, end. Needed a more information in the beginning. Set up the story more cohesively and avoid loose ends and meandering through it. You should do voice over narration to tie things together better. Not subtitles. You have a lot of potential. A for effort.

    I take it that you, or others, have searched the areas you think Vlad went missing during summer (no snow) and didn't find any traces of clothing or gear he had, so I'm assuming your theory if where he went missing might be wrong. Maybe Vlad disappeared himself. It's been known to have happened many times to others in the past.
