Deadliest Journeys: Philippines

Heart-stopping, adrenaline filled stories and dangerous journeys.

Not so long ago, the tribes on the island of Luzon in the Philippines were at war. Their position far up in the mountains meant that it was virtually impossible for the authorities to intervene. So, the Philippine government launched a project to construct a road between Bontoc and Tabuk, the 2 largest towns in the North. 100 years later however, and the road is still a constant work in progress.

Ancient buses pitch dangerously on the side of the ravines. Each driver must be accompanied by a road worker, whose job is to clear the rubble out of the way and avoid mud slides which could tip the vehicle over the edge. But some villages are inaccessible by bus. Passengers must either walk, or take a scooter taxi.
