In 1845, Sir John Franklin and a crew of over 120 men set sail from England to travel the unnavigated sections of the Northwest Passage in the Arctic. All of them disappeared without a trace when their ships became trapped in ice and abandoned. While the wrecks have been located and a couple bodies have been found on several islands over the last 175 years since the disappearance, Franklin\u2019s grave remains elusive.<\/p>\n

In\u00a0Explorer: Lost in the Arctic<\/em>, National Geographic photographer and filmmaker Renan Ozturk and explorer Mark Synnott set sail from Maine to Greenland to trace the Franklin expedition\u2019s path and search for Franklin\u2019s final resting place. Ozturk, who has often captured mountain expeditions on camera, talks to\u00a0TV Real Weekly<\/em>\u00a0about what it was like filming at sea and the steps taken to ensure safety when embarking on such a harrowing journey.<\/p>\n
