Sam Roscol is an athletic 50 year-old and he’s Mr. Safety in Polynesia… 1.85m of energy, commitment and love of life. Sam Roscol is the head of the GPI, the Polynesian Emergency Service. With his team of volunteers, he is responsible for the safety of people on Polynesian territory in case of natural disasters.
Their activity: rescue… anywhere, under any circumstances… cyclone, tsunami, accident on the mountain or at sea, plane crash… the range of their interventions is wide.
But when he’s not on a mission, Sam and his team play at explorers. He’s already opened up some 180 canyons by making some tricky passages safe.
We accompany Sam Roscol and his team during their training and we follow one of their dangerous missions step by step.
