The Big Picture The Discovery Channel has given birth to popular reality shows, including Gold Rush. The premise is fairly simple: Six men decide to mine for gold in Alaska after losing their jobs, enlisting the help of their families. Gold Rush grew popular enough to have spinoffs, including Hoffman Family Gold, centering on Todd Hoffman as he starts mining gold again with the help of his father Jack and son Hunter.
"But we got in this car chase like you'd see in the movies, man...And I said, 'Once we get stuck, I'm throwing the cash out and everybody just lay down. We're going to throw the cash out.' We just kept right in front of them. And my driver got us away. And I don't know how he did it, but he was literally screaming at the top of his lungs and so it added to the drama, like my driver screaming; I'm just freaked.
Todd Hoffman’s Car Chase Was Deemed Too Extreme for ‘Gold Rush’ The high stakes of a car chase seem like they would fit in perfectly for a reality show about gold mining, but Hoffman revealed that the incident was never filmed — and for good reason. "The things I did in the jungle were just – they didn't put them on camera because it was too freaky," he said. It makes perfect sense given that most of the hazards miners face are too dangerous to be captured on camera.
1 ‘Hoffman Gold Rush’ Fully Focuses on Josh Hoffman’s Gold Mining Career Hoffman recently returned to the world of TV gold mining with Hoffman Family Gold, which once again finds him mining for gold - only this time he's competing against his son. This comes after Hoffman left the main Gold Rush show, citing a need to spend more time with his family.
