- 00:29
fire to public figures shivering transport from new pull them
- 00:33
together and okay so what went wrong Well advice is

Too bad This guy didn't listen We're looking for a
- 00:43
bit of cause and effect here And this man certainly
- 00:45
has a conflict with nature and maybe even a few
- 00:47
conflicts But what caused the man to become locked in
- 00:51
this life and death battle with cold Not listening If
