WHAT IS AN ICONOCLAST? Jon Krakauer

http://www.sundancechannel.com/iconoc... Jon Krakauer answers the question: What is an Iconoclast?

In the "Iconoclasts: Sean Penn + Jon Krakauer" episode of "Iconoclasts," Into the Wild, Jon Krakauer's bestselling novel adapted for film by Sean Penn, serves as a roadmap for their journey to Alaska. The two retrace backpacker Chris McCandless' steps along the Stampede Trail to the bus where he was found dead 15 years ago. While driving, flying in a helicopter and hiking to the shrine-like bus, the duo share a deep connection to the Alaskan landscape and discuss their thoughts on McCandless' spirit of adventure, their common bond with nature and the creative process it inspires. This episode includes music from the Into the Wild soundtrack composed and performed by Eddie Vedder. Directed by Joe Berlinger.

ICONOCLASTS airs Thursdays at 10pm on Sundance Channel.

@land4x4ever He's no iconoclast, just an asshole

@btheadtrip No, it means you are a destroyer of religious idols or traditionally held beliefs.

he maybe an iconoclast, he is also a arsehole, the things he said about anatoli boukreev in "into thin air" was nothing but unadulterated bullshit, he knew it as well. I wish this prick would disappear into thin air just like poor old toli did 11 years ago.

RIP Anatoli you were the better man

sso iconoclast is a bad thing? Idols are no good in the bible right? Im going to go look it up, and come back... I think Im an iconoclast... does it mean being your own icon?

[pheasguide]

literally it means idol smasher in biblical terms.

Sounds self-absorbed. You don't always get what you want in life if you want to accommodate for others.

I believe you may be right Sean. HM, middle-of-nowhere
