Accidents, Deaths, and Other Controversy

Life in Alaska might be simple but isn’t easy, and many of these cast members have been embroiled in a number of dangerous situations. Luckily, no one from the show has died, but Sue and Glenn have faced danger. Sue was “strong-armed” into a variety of hazardous scenarios by Aaron Mellman, the producer of the show, and without face protections out in extreme cold, suffered frostbite, and furthermore survived a bear attack. Glenn on the other hand, was surrounded by a pack of wolves, but escaped and returned safely to his cabin.

Chip Hailstone spent several months in jail, after making false allegations that a man from the town of Noorvik held his daughter at gunpoint, which eventually turned out to be untrue. As a result, Chip spent 15 months in the Anchorage Correctional Complex.
