Prince Harry let the cameras roll this past fall when he paid a visit to the disaster relief group MapAction. The new clip, released on Wednesday, documents the 32-year-old's visit to Norway in September, to surprise volunteers of the organization during a major disaster stimulation exercise.

"As proven, without all these maps and without your knowledge and without all the time you are able to give up as a volunteer, I dread to actually think what would be happening."
