The Australian version of the television news show 60 Minutes covered the situation in Iceland in a recent program. The presenter Liz Hayes went to Iceland to inquire about the matter and interviewed a few leaders and opinion makers in Icelandic society. She believes that if Icelanders were crazy enough to get themselves into these troubles then they will be bold enough to get themselves out if them again. In a part of the presentation, Ms. Hayes wore a Tindur down coat from 66°North.  

In her introduction Ms. Hayes says: "Take one small and rather odd island in the North Atlantic. Add a bunch of fishermen who fancy themselves as international bankers. Mix in a dash of hot Viking blood. And voila! You have a total catastrophe called Iceland."
