The show aired on multiple networks in the United States, Canada, the UK, the Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand, India, Iran, Pakistan, South Africa and the Philippines.

The show was compiled using footage of interviews and dramatic reenactments of the situation. The main focus of the show was providing an explanation of how the participants survived the ordeal against typical odds and outlining the decisions they made that kept them alive.
