There is a fine line between a life-lasting memory and disaster. Whatever the discipline -- alpinism, big wave surfing, foreign travel -- we calculate risk, formulate plans and sometimes we have the spunk to see them through. Two friends, Jacob Bain and Colin Brynn, recount their story of traveling in Laos and one spectacularly bad idea. Join us as we follow them and a bamboo raft down a river at the edge of the world. Sometimes bad ideas work out for the better...sometimes.
