The 130th Flag: A Nat Geo Superskilled Story with Dan Baird

Join world-renowned Survival Expert and Head Producer Dan Baird for an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the making of the second season of National Geographic’s award winning series, Superskilled. In this gripping presentation, Baird reveals the logistical grit and raw human potential required to document host Eva zu Beck as she masters ancient traditions in the world’s most unforgiving landscapes. From the precision of high-speed horseback archery on the Mongolian steppe to the breathless ascent of Andean glaciers alongsideBolivia’s Climbing Cholitas, Baird shares how the Superskilled team bridges the gap between indigenous wisdom and modern elite performance to achieve storytelling greatness.

This journey holds a rare place in history as only the 130th Flag expedition authorized by The Adventurers’ Club of Los Angeles in the 105 years since its founding. By carrying this prestigious banner, the Superskilled team joins an elite lineage of pioneers recognized by the Club for pushing the boundaries of global exploration in pursuit of human knowledge. It is a distinction reserved for those who do more than just travel—they expand the map of what is possible.

Don’t miss this deep dive into the limits of physical and mental resilience, where the “superskills” of the past provide a roadmap for the explorers of tomorrow.
