Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:21,000
DYLAN: We are heading into one of
the harshest winters on the planet.
2
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:22,640
SIA: There's no finish line.
3
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:27,560
TRENT: But there is $250,000
waiting for the last person.
4
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:31,560
LILLIAN: It's so cold.
5
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:33,560
Cold like this can kill you.
6
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:36,040
DOUGY: I can't feel my face.
7
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:37,280
I can't feel my hands.
8
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,200
TRENT: This weather's
going to sort a few people out.
9
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:45,120
CLINT: The wolves howling across
the lake send shivers up your spine.
10
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,720
JASPER: You've got wolverines,
wolves, bears.
11
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:50,440
ALYCE: It's a whole new frontier.
12
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,920
DOUGY: Alone season four, the Arctic.
13
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,000
It's on like Donkey Kong.
14
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:01,800
JASPER: The mind's unravelling.
15
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:03,720
DOUGY: It's gone completely tits up.
16
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:05,280
MISTY: I didn't think
it would be easy,
17
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:06,960
but I didn't think
it would be this hard.
18
00:01:06,960 --> 00:01:08,280
SIA: Oh.
19
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,360
DOUGY: The landscape
doesn't care if you live or die.
20
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,160
(SOBBING)
21
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:13,320
TRENT: Shoulder's on fire.
22
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:16,280
JASPER: Look, look, look.
23
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,320
Oh, that is so beautiful.
24
00:01:18,320 --> 00:01:22,960
LILLIAN: The northern lights are out.
They're telling me to stay.
25
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,680
CLINT:
Permanent now. And here forever.
26
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:29,920
God!
27
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,000
DYLAN: I need to be here
till the end. I'm not tapping.
28
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,640
- MISTY: Whoo!
- JASPER: Whoo!
29
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,720
- SIA: Dinner!
- DOUGY: Ha ha!
30
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,480
RESCUER 1: Hello?
31
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,960
Hello? He's not here.
32
00:01:45,960 --> 00:01:48,120
Hello, mate?
33
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,680
RESCUER 2: He's gone. He's actually
gone. He's missing. Call it in.
34
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,280
We need immediate backup
for search and rescue.
35
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:56,760
RESCUER 2: Koo-wee!
36
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:07,520
It's like rushing into a first date.
37
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,960
Could be the love of your life,
or a divorce waiting to happen.
38
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,040
That wind is bleak.
39
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:16,480
This shit just got serious.
40
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,240
It's a big animal
that's been tracking through here.
41
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,000
It is so dark out here.
42
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,280
There could be anything out there,
and I wouldn't know.
43
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:25,800
(HOWLING)
44
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:26,800
(STICK CRACKS)
45
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,280
Just heard a stick crack.
46
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,200
Definitely didn't deal
with the landing so well.
47
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:33,640
I started getting in my head.
48
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,000
So hard.
49
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,960
Couple of days in with no food,
I'm starting to feel it already.
50
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,760
Oh, look at the worms in it.
51
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:42,760
See that?
52
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,040
Oh, my God.
53
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,600
(GAGS)
54
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:49,920
Have a look at this.
55
00:02:49,920 --> 00:02:51,240
I reckon there's about 30 here.
56
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:52,520
Whoo-hoo!
57
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:53,880
This could get me some fish.
58
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:54,880
Oh, a bite.
59
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:55,880
Oh, got him.
60
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,080
Have a look at that, baby!
61
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,360
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
62
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:02,720
Old Trent from Tassie.
63
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,000
There's the liver.
64
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:06,840
Mmm.
65
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:10,560
Ah, delicious.
66
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,440
Oh.
67
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,120
I'm so thirsty!
68
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,480
Agh!
69
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:13,480
Wow.
70
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:15,600
Stuff it.
71
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:16,600
I'm going to drink it.
72
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:24,520
Oh.
73
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:26,040
Tastes good to me.
74
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,040
Don't try to copy me.
75
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,240
The Asian stomach can handle this,
OK?
76
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:35,480
Ahh!
77
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:46,840
The first thing this morning,
I'm going to make a stove, actually.
78
00:04:46,840 --> 00:04:50,080
A little fire pit in my shelter.
79
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:51,960
I want it to be warm in there.
80
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,560
The weather out here is so harsh,
and we haven't even hit winter yet.
81
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:06,760
So I'm going to go down and get some
rocks to carry back to my campsite.
82
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:09,960
Rocks, rocks, rocks.
83
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,760
This is where
I'm going to get my rocks from.
84
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,720
And I want big, big ones.
85
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:24,360
Otherwise, the foundation of my fire
pit is not going to be stable enough.
86
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,400
I'm out here
competing against the elements.
87
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:41,520
It's going to take serious work
to stay warm and safe here.
88
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:44,600
Oh.
89
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,720
Big one. Big one.
90
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,400
I can last a bit longer without food.
91
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,600
Fishing is not on my radar
at the moment.
92
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,000
It is shelter, water and fire.
93
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,200
Oh, my God.
94
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:06,200
Oh.
95
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:07,480
Oh, my God.
96
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,360
I have to catch my breath.
97
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,360
I can do this. I can do this.
98
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,360
I grew up on a farm in Thailand.
99
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:26,720
Growing up in poverty,
100
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:31,200
so we constantly had to create
and find things that we can live on.
101
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:36,400
Oh.
102
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:45,360
Because of my upbringing,
I have learned to be adaptable.
103
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:49,480
I know hardship,
and I know how to push myself.
104
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,920
Oh! Oh.
105
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:56,560
OK.
106
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,840
I nearly fell backwards.
107
00:07:04,280 --> 00:07:05,800
OK.
108
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:07,280
I can do this.
109
00:07:07,280 --> 00:07:11,520
I am small,
but I am really gritty, robust.
110
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:17,000
And I definitely have a very
strong competitiveness within me.
111
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,320
Yes!
112
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,000
I'm doing it!
113
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:30,000
Whoo!
114
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:32,560
Oh, my God.
115
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:37,720
I see myself as a little bit of a
secret weapon, because, you know,
116
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:41,360
people do judge me by the way I look.
117
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:47,480
So I want to show them that
don't judge the book by its cover.
118
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,120
In all my ultra-marathons,
119
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:56,360
I put my body, my mind
through hell and back so many times.
120
00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:01,240
Blisters, no toenails,
blue toenails, black toenails.
121
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,000
You're bleeding.
122
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:09,240
I always get broken, but you get
to rebuild a new version of you.
123
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,160
You build a stronger version of you.
124
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:14,720
And I want to see
where this stronger me will break.
125
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,760
I've done probably
50-plus ultra-marathon races,
126
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:25,000
but the toughest have probably been
through the Arctic Circle.
127
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,360
Midwinter in the Arctic,
it was super scary,
128
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:35,760
because it doesn't just go cold,
you feel the pain in your fingers.
129
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,240
The Arctic environment
is nothing new for me.
130
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:42,160
The isolation, the darkness,
I thrive in that environment.
131
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,120
Bye, Mum. We're going to miss you.
132
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:46,920
I'm a single mum,
133
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:51,200
so I'm doing this because
I want to make my girls proud.
134
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:52,720
You be safe, Mama.
135
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,600
Also, it's because
I want to find my limits.
136
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:59,360
I'm willing to push myself
as far as my body allows me,
137
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,640
and I know my body can take a lot.
138
00:09:08,560 --> 00:09:10,680
It's like a jigsaw.
139
00:09:10,680 --> 00:09:13,480
You want this to be right, you
don't want this to collapse on you.
140
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:20,680
The winter can drop down
to below minus 50 degrees.
141
00:09:21,680 --> 00:09:25,520
Warmth is the most crucial thing
in this environment.
142
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,280
Oh! Please don't.
143
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:30,720
Please stay.
144
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:36,120
I wanted my shelter to be warm.
145
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:40,600
And I also wanted to have
a decent place to cook.
146
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,360
I'll boil my water.
147
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:49,920
Don't collapse on me.
148
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,480
Ooh!
149
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,280
Oh... Whoo!
150
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,240
I got a fire pit!
151
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:07,960
I'm so happy!
152
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,080
Can you see me?
153
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:11,640
Hello!
154
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,360
The irony
of me preparing this fire pit
155
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,880
is that I don't have anything
to cook.
156
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:23,760
(LAUGHS)
157
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,360
Morning.
158
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,320
Well, yesterday was a good day.
159
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:47,320
It's going to be hard to top.
160
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,480
Finding all that bait just set me up
for a really good day.
161
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,480
I've got, what, three fish?
162
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,600
Hopefully we'll get
some more fish today.
163
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,080
Alright,
let's check these fishing lines.
164
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,560
I've got food,
and I'm very grateful that I do,
165
00:11:08,560 --> 00:11:10,440
but it's not going to last that long.
166
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:14,560
So I need to catch more fish
to go a long way here.
167
00:11:14,560 --> 00:11:16,680
This line's quite tight.
168
00:11:16,680 --> 00:11:17,680
Let's have a look.
169
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,040
There's a fish on there.
170
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:22,240
Oh, yes.
171
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:23,240
Look here.
172
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:26,480
Oh, yes.
173
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:29,480
Oh, nice trout.
174
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:33,760
Oh, he's a nice trout.
175
00:11:40,560 --> 00:11:42,800
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
176
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:47,840
Have a look at that.
177
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,120
Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
178
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:53,960
Yeah.
179
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:56,240
Another fish.
180
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,520
Another one to Trent.
181
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,160
Yeah.
182
00:12:03,680 --> 00:12:05,320
Jeez, I'm happy with that.
183
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,800
I reckon he's bigger
than the one I got yesterday.
184
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,480
Yeah. Hoo-hoo!
185
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,360
Let's go and check the other one.
186
00:12:13,560 --> 00:12:15,480
This had a tiny little hook on it,
187
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,440
but I thought I'd put a bait on it
anyway.
188
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,080
Oh, shit.
189
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:23,560
Oh, that's a fish.
190
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:30,800
Oh, that's a good fish.
191
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,440
Oh, yeah.
192
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:41,800
Oh, yes.
193
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:45,600
Oh, yes!
194
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:50,840
Yeah.
195
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,000
Yee-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee!
196
00:12:59,560 --> 00:13:01,320
Have a look at that.
197
00:13:03,680 --> 00:13:06,560
Yee-hoo-hoo-hoo!
198
00:13:06,560 --> 00:13:08,440
Another one.
199
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,000
You beauty.
200
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:14,880
Two fish in five minutes.
201
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:17,040
Wowee.
202
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,480
That is a relief for me.
203
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,000
I'm catching fish here.
204
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,440
Got more food than expected so far.
205
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:34,960
There's the liver.
206
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,920
Those dead baits I found,
man, they were killer.
207
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,520
Can't believe it.
208
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:46,960
Whoo!
209
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,160
Trent from Tassie. He's here to stay.
210
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:52,480
101 days.
211
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:54,640
Here we come.
212
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:28,720
Day four.
213
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,240
I'm here.
214
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:35,600
I live here now.
215
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,400
In this tent.
216
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,040
In this forest.
217
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,440
We're at the edge
of the Arctic Circle.
218
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:51,960
Look at that.
219
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:54,840
This place is so cool.
220
00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:00,280
To think I'm going to be here
when it's all white as well.
221
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:01,760
It's going to be incredible to watch.
222
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:06,360
Wow, it's nice here.
223
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:10,360
Awesome.
224
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,320
I've never seen ice.
225
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,040
I've never seen snow.
226
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:17,800
It's wild what I'm doing here
227
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,480
and I'm really excited
for the experience.
228
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:28,960
Oh! Look, look, look, look.
229
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,200
Reindeer.
230
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,240
How cool.
231
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:47,520
And I see babies too.
232
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,200
Look at that little one.
233
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:58,200
So white.
234
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:01,560
Amazing.
235
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,000
Holy moly.
236
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:15,160
In the wild.
237
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,600
Hoo-woo!
238
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,000
Try and do it as calmly as I can.
239
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:28,880
I'm a man of the land.
240
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:30,680
Oh, here comes a kitten.
241
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,960
I grow my own food.
242
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:34,480
I forage.
243
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,600
I build my own structures.
244
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,800
This is my house bus,
the old Bedford.
245
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:41,440
Built the roof on it.
246
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,760
Replaced the original chairs
with some speedboat chairs.
247
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:50,400
I live on a small permaculture farm
with mostly just family but also
248
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,320
some friends live here as well
so it's a bit of a community.
249
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:57,720
Alright, lamb is from Mark's flock
and I butchered that one.
250
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:03,880
All the skills that I've been
developing since a young teenager
251
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:08,160
are just building to this experience
and preparing me for it.
252
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:13,000
I've got the creativity and problem
solving skills built in from just
253
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,000
living on the land.
254
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,360
And then the physical skills that
I've got over time from my fishing
255
00:17:17,360 --> 00:17:21,640
and my boat hunting
and my building that I do.
256
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,520
- See you, Mum.
- Bye, darling.
257
00:17:25,360 --> 00:17:30,920
This is maybe a bit of a ceremony
for me or a passage into being a man.
258
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:35,200
I came here to test my skills
and to come home a different person
259
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,600
improved by the experience.
260
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,240
- See ya!
- Bye!
261
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:41,560
Love you all.
262
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,440
And hopefully with $250,000.
263
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,480
My shelter is going to be
exactly nipple height.
264
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,520
Today is
permanent shelter construction.
265
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:01,080
I've got a bit of building to do,
a bit of shifting.
266
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:02,160
Top time.
267
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,760
Making the permanent shelter the one
that's going to be tight and solid
268
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,280
and keep me warm when the snow comes.
269
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,840
It's frigging awesome.
270
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:18,920
Oh, wow.
271
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:20,640
Oh, this shelter is cool, so cool.
272
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,760
I'm thinking of calling it Manden.
273
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:24,280
Like a man den.
274
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:25,640
What a cool home.
275
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,120
One more stake.
276
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,280
No way.
277
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:34,520
Slug.
278
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,360
Just what I want.
279
00:18:40,360 --> 00:18:41,360
Bait for me.
280
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:44,640
Thank you, buddy, just come with me.
281
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,920
That is some bait
if I've ever seen it.
282
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:50,480
Oh, yes.
283
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,800
That's awesome,
that's this afternoon fishing.
284
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:54,840
Yes!
285
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:58,680
There's my slug bait.
286
00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:02,120
I'm going to give it a whirl.
287
00:19:02,120 --> 00:19:04,400
Very gently cast it.
288
00:19:05,360 --> 00:19:07,520
Because the slug's fragile.
289
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,840
The fish,
they're going to really slow down,
290
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,440
almost hibernate
when that ice comes.
291
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,080
So I really need to be fishing them
while they're in that active,
292
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:22,080
aggressive phase,
293
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:26,080
where they're just trying to feed up
and store fat for the winter.
294
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,280
Oh, oh, I've got action.
295
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,360
Got a tug straightaway.
296
00:19:33,360 --> 00:19:34,680
Did he frigging just take my slug?
297
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:35,680
No, the slug's still there.
298
00:19:37,120 --> 00:19:39,360
You stay on there, slug, you stay on.
299
00:19:39,360 --> 00:19:41,320
We're a team now.
300
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:44,440
Oh, we've got splashes near it.
301
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,080
Get ready.
302
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,960
Get a tug,
I'll give it a little tug back.
303
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:50,040
Come on.
304
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,320
Have a bite, have a bite.
305
00:19:54,120 --> 00:19:56,480
Oh, holy moly.
306
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,520
Come on, come on, come on.
307
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,600
Oh, I saw a splash.
308
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,280
Get ready.
309
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,320
Get a tug,
I'll give it a little tug back.
310
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,680
Come on.
311
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,080
Oh, I've got a fish.
I've got a fish.
312
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:25,640
I've got a frigging fish.
313
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,400
Holy moly. Holy moly.
314
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:31,520
Oh, my God.
315
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:35,600
It's a grayling.
316
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,360
Look at the frigging... Yes!
317
00:20:37,360 --> 00:20:38,680
It's grayling.
318
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:39,920
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
319
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,120
Got a fish, got a fish, got a fish.
320
00:20:43,120 --> 00:20:44,720
Oh, yeah.
321
00:20:46,120 --> 00:20:47,520
Grayling.
322
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:49,720
Fish.
323
00:20:51,120 --> 00:20:52,360
A fish.
324
00:20:52,360 --> 00:20:55,320
Oh! (LAUGHS)
325
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,800
That is so cool.
326
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,280
That is so frigging cool.
327
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,280
I caught a fish.
328
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,280
Oh, I can use those eyeballs as bait.
329
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,120
I've got so much bait now,
I've got guts.
330
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:13,960
Like one fish is great,
but if I can turn that one fish
331
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:15,640
into a bunch of other fish,
332
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:16,880
that's primo.
333
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:18,560
That's really good.
334
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,200
Fish and lingonberries.
335
00:21:36,360 --> 00:21:38,360
Oh, yeah.
336
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:41,520
So frigging cool.
337
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,760
It's really encouraging to like see
fish,
338
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,120
have figured out how to catch them.
339
00:21:50,120 --> 00:21:51,520
It's been a cool day.
340
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:52,640
Been a really cool day.
341
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:55,720
Fish has got a bit of hair in it.
342
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,440
Mmm.
343
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:06,960
That is really good.
344
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,160
So great to have this food.
345
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,040
I'm getting set up here.
346
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:14,400
I'm getting set up.
347
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:31,480
Better get back inside.
348
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,560
There's a few
really dangerous animals here.
349
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,680
Wolverines, wolves, bears.
350
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,880
It's definitely
nothing like Australia.
351
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:52,600
It's about as far away from home
as I could possibly get.
352
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,120
Damn, I look sexy.
353
00:23:25,120 --> 00:23:26,120
Hey, baby.
354
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,600
Day five, baby.
355
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:33,600
All right, let's go.
356
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:43,280
I've had like
such an emotional time out here.
357
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:47,360
It's not what I was expecting.
358
00:23:47,360 --> 00:23:52,520
Like, I knew
it was going to be tough, you know.
359
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,200
I just didn't expect it
to be so emotional.
360
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,720
I hope that turns around
and we find joy in stuff.
361
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,880
My biggest priority from here on out
362
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:10,400
will just be getting this
permanent shelter done.
363
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:18,320
My plan for today is just make
the A-frame and then I can like just
364
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,800
build the walls up and see how we go.
365
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:24,880
I can handle staying at my location
a couple more nights.
366
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,520
Hopefully the weather
stays good for me.
367
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:32,280
But I think this is where
the official location is going to be.
368
00:24:34,120 --> 00:24:40,960
This experience, it's been such
an emotional rollercoaster for me.
369
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,440
Getting this up
is going to be difficult.
370
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:48,200
But I know I work with validation.
371
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,920
And one of those validating processes
372
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:56,640
are actually witnessing
your project come to life.
373
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,240
So I think once I move into that
other shelter,
374
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,320
it'll just be a morale booster,
you know.
375
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,240
A little bit high,
but that's all right.
376
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,240
All those doubts
kind of go away a bit.
377
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:14,720
All right.
378
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,120
It's like one of the first homes
I've ever made, you know.
379
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,120
I haven't had too many of them
in my life.
380
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:30,360
I left home at 15
because home was too intense for me.
381
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,000
For me,
winning would be an opportunity
382
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,840
to start a new chapter of my life.
383
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,000
It feels nice
to have a bit of direction.
384
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:44,160
I feel back.
385
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,040
I feel better, you know.
386
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:51,040
Oh, guys,
I feel like I'm having fun again.
387
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,480
I don't know how that happened.
388
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,440
Fucking doing this.
389
00:25:58,440 --> 00:25:59,960
Just saying.
390
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:09,200
Cool.
391
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,120
Oh, yeah.
392
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:13,600
Gosh.
393
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,760
I was really worried there for a
moment that I wasn't going to get to
394
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,360
enjoy my time out here, you know.
395
00:26:21,360 --> 00:26:22,480
Really worried.
396
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,200
Check it out.
397
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,120
Fuck yeah, she's back, baby.
398
00:26:29,120 --> 00:26:30,440
For now.
399
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,000
Don't get cocky.
400
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,960
Oof!
401
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:51,880
Hey, fish!
402
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,840
Hello, fish.
403
00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:57,040
You there?
404
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:01,600
Come on, please.
405
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:02,600
Don't be shy.
406
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:03,760
I need a few of you.
407
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:04,760
I'm here.
408
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:05,760
Come on.
409
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:15,160
Day five.
410
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:16,960
Wow.
411
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,680
See these beautiful birds?
412
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:28,200
I have to keep reminding myself
that this is a marathon.
413
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,520
So I have to take it easy,
bit by bit.
414
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:35,280
I need to do the most important
things, the heavy things,
415
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,200
which is shelter.
416
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,920
I have to make that
in one or two days, max.
417
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,920
And today's a beautiful day,
so we'll take advantage of this.
418
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:48,280
I'm thinking about the long run.
419
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,960
And in order to survive that long,
420
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:54,880
a safe, secure shelter
with a fireplace inside.
421
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,040
That's my number one priority.
422
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,480
And then focus on the food.
423
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:06,560
So what I do,
I'm actually using these two trees.
424
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:10,840
And I'm just going to make
a wall on this side.
425
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:18,120
But once I finish, that will protect
me from rain, wind, wild animals,
426
00:28:18,120 --> 00:28:19,640
and also the cold winter and snow.
427
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:24,160
Because they're coming.
I have to prepare for the worst.
428
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:28,320
Keep working.
429
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:37,800
So this side is done.
430
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:42,480
Without using paracord
or anything else.
431
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:46,360
Because I need to use
this paracord for gillnet.
432
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,040
So I don't want to use it
to tie up this log.
433
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,080
I'm not a trained survivalist,
434
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:58,000
but I grew up in Afghanistan
on the war zone.
435
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,840
And I crossed seven countries
to make it to Australia.
436
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,720
And I suffered a lot
during this journey.
437
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:11,400
Once I got my permanent
Humanitarian Protection Visa,
438
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,360
completed Year 10, 11, 12.
439
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:15,720
Got my HSC.
440
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,160
Got my Taekwondo black belt.
441
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:22,680
And became a 10-time state champion,
a couple of national champions.
442
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,880
And I was representing Australia
as well.
443
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,720
I'm not an expert in survival.
444
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:32,960
I think most of my skills
come from my childhood.
445
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,840
I've learned most of my hunting
technique from my grandfather.
446
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:41,240
In Afghanistan, they're not doing it
for trophies, for sport things.
447
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:43,920
And anything they hunt, they eat.
448
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,600
So I ended up all the way...
449
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:50,720
I've done this survival thing
in real life.
450
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:55,840
For our people,
giving up is not in our DNA.
451
00:29:55,840 --> 00:30:01,960
So we'd rather die in a honourable
way than living in a shameful life.
452
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:10,400
Tapping out from where I came from
and who I am is not an option.
453
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,040
We've got a visitor.
454
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:15,800
Look, it's beautiful.
455
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,680
Hello. Hi.
456
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,160
Just right behind me there.
457
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,600
Hey, mate, do you speak English?
458
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:29,600
Hey, can you just drop something
for me as well, please?
459
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,200
I'm hungry.
460
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:34,240
(LAUGHS)
461
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:35,560
Let him enjoy.
462
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,200
And we've got to go back to work.
463
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,880
Please stay.
464
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,560
Please stay with me.
465
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:14,440
Might not be the most good-looking
shelter, but I'm proud I built it.
466
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,280
Keeps me dry and keeps me warm.
467
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:20,800
I'm happy with that.
468
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:24,800
Getting pretty hungry,
need to get some food.
469
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:30,960
So today I am keen to go explore.
470
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:34,760
Hopefully I can find some mushrooms.
471
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,000
Changing my socks.
472
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,000
So...
473
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:47,560
..this morning I put on a pair
of socks that I used yesterday on.
474
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,000
And I could feel
that they were a little bit damp.
475
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,680
And I put them on anyway.
476
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:57,160
And it took me ages
to get my feet warm up.
477
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:00,560
And that was just laziness of me.
478
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,720
I knew I shouldn't have done that.
479
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:07,400
Because I have
a pre-existing frostbite already.
480
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,240
I got it
when I raced in the Arctic.
481
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:16,720
So my frostbite is up here.
482
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:17,840
My precious toe.
483
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:22,560
I need to look after her
or she'll take me down.
484
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:28,040
In the Arctic Circle,
the smallest mistake can be fatal.
485
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,760
Calories intake
is my main focus today.
486
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:38,640
So today's hike,
hopefully it brings some good news.
487
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,080
Have to be careful.
488
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:55,840
I can use a lot of calories
doing this, but I got no choice.
489
00:32:55,840 --> 00:33:00,000
Hopefully I can find some mushrooms.
490
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:19,680
I'll climb up to the highest point
on this land.
491
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,120
I just want to see what's around me.
492
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:26,440
Plenty of birds around this area.
493
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:30,440
Could be mushroom that I recognize.
494
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,360
(GASPS) Oh, my God!
495
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:49,920
I'm going to eat a mushroom
for dinner tonight.
496
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:52,760
Do you see that?
497
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:00,960
There's another one here.
498
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:05,800
Two mushrooms.
499
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:09,120
Oh! I'm going to have dinner.
500
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:13,680
That was a big climb
for two mushrooms.
501
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:19,560
Now I have to find my way back
to my shelter.
502
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:20,760
OK.
503
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:30,720
When the sun's up, I know
it's going to go down really quickly.
504
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:48,320
I think I've discovered
another lake on this land.
505
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:50,080
There's a big lake.
506
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:52,600
There's a tiny little lake
over there.
507
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:54,720
And then there's another lake here.
508
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:03,600
I really have to find my way back.
509
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:04,800
To my shelter.
510
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,520
To be honest,
I'm not too sure where I am.
511
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:17,800
I need to find my way back.
512
00:35:24,240 --> 00:35:26,080
I've been out all day.
513
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,240
Here's another lake.
514
00:35:31,240 --> 00:35:32,880
It's one lake after another.
515
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,320
I just lost my way, to be honest.
516
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:44,880
It's getting really dark.
517
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:46,640
Now I'm freaking out,
518
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,200
because I haven't taken
my head torch.
519
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:51,640
Oh, my God.
520
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:01,720
God. It's not good.
521
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,680
I don't know where I am.
522
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:56,680
We're heading
down to the drink to have a swim.
523
00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:00,000
Wash, scrub,
whatever you like to call it.
524
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:03,200
I was going to leave
the camera behind, but...
525
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:05,920
I know
you're a pack of twisted buggers.
526
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,360
You'd probably want to see me naked.
527
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:10,720
I've got news for you.
528
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,280
It's not going to happen today.
529
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:15,760
This is a family show.
530
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,280
Who knows what will happen
in the weeks to come, mind you.
531
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,080
What are we? Day five?
532
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,920
Rapidly closing in on our first week.
533
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:30,880
I've got nothing to show for it.
534
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:35,280
What the hell have I actually done?
535
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:38,920
Everything takes so much time
out here.
536
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:48,360
So many times on Alone,
537
00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:51,560
we've seen people rush around
like a blue-ass blowfly
538
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:55,800
trying to build frigging mansions
for shelters and everything else.
539
00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:57,520
And what's happened?
540
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,440
They've crashed and burned
just about every time.
541
00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:15,240
So my strategy all along
is just slow down.
542
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:21,320
Try not to burn too much energy.
543
00:38:23,240 --> 00:38:26,320
It's quite relaxing, that sound,
just the eyes shut.
544
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,400
Warmth of the sun, just the waves
lapping on the beach
545
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:30,880
and a bit of wind in the trees.
546
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:45,440
I've just turned 57 years old.
547
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:50,560
But I've probably got even a better
mental toughness now
548
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:53,120
than I had 30 years ago.
549
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:57,440
The tough life at the farm has made
me a pretty resilient character.
550
00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:00,080
It certainly teaches you
survival skills.
551
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:06,920
I do a lot of hunting
around the farm, hunt wild deer.
552
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:09,080
That's how we get most of our meat.
553
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:13,120
And I've done a lot
of incredible outdoor experiences.
554
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,040
Kayaked 10,000 kays around Alaska,
555
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,040
mountain biked across Australia
and through Nepal and across India.
556
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:23,280
Countless hunting trips throughout
New Zealand and now I've got a good
557
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:27,160
grounding in just about
every outdoor skill I can think of.
558
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,720
Shelter building, fishing.
559
00:39:29,720 --> 00:39:31,040
There he is.
560
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:32,040
Holy shit!
561
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,200
Look at that.
562
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:35,600
Bloody hook...
563
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:36,960
It's gone right into my thumb.
564
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,320
I'm always looking
for another challenge
565
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:42,200
or something
that's going to push me along a bit.
566
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:44,680
It's almost
like a mountain to climb to me.
567
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:49,440
It's like there's a summit up there,
you know, how can I get there?
568
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:52,320
And on the top of that summit
is obviously a pile of cash.
569
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:55,960
I have no doubt I can win this
because I've got the right attitude,
570
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:57,200
the right mental attitude.
571
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:58,800
There's only one way
to do these things -
572
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:00,280
you just harden up
and get on with it.
573
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:01,520
Take a cement pill.
574
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:03,480
That is tough skin.
575
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:08,040
Wind's not blowing,
the lake's reasonably calm,
576
00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:09,080
we better have a fish.
577
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:15,000
We might just chuck the rod in
and have a few clicks of the fly.
578
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,480
Just see if there's anything lurking.
579
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:27,400
Priority today, really, is to attempt
to catch a fish
580
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:29,240
and get a bit of food
in the old belly.
581
00:40:29,240 --> 00:40:31,000
It's starting to grumble and groan.
582
00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:35,520
Here, fishy, fishy, fishy.
583
00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:37,680
Got a big body.
584
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:40,400
Six foot two.
585
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:44,880
Takes a hell of a lot of calories
and a lot of food to keep her going.
586
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:52,000
Come on, fishy, fishy, fishy.
587
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:57,200
What's that there?
588
00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,120
Is it a fish?
589
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:04,560
Oh, bloody rock.
590
00:41:07,720 --> 00:41:09,040
Damn.
591
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,960
Thought we might
have been fairly deep out there.
592
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:14,160
Got to be kidding me.
593
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:17,480
I'm going to try
and get the hook back if I can.
594
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,120
OK, get some gear off.
595
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:29,800
OK.
596
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:32,480
No need to look now.
597
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,680
A man's got to do
what a man's got to do.
598
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:45,640
Oh, under my feet too. Ow!
599
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,240
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
600
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:55,440
Yep, got him. I got him.
601
00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,000
Jesus Christ, that's cold.
602
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:04,960
My external organs have
just about become internal organs.
603
00:42:08,720 --> 00:42:14,440
Well, it didn't go quite to plan,
but at least we didn't lose any gear.
604
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:19,320
I still think it's got potential
here, but it's just not deep.
605
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:23,160
Can't beat having a nice drop-off
to fish into, eh?
606
00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:27,680
So we're going to have to just
keep looking, keep exploring.
607
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:30,160
We'll get there.
608
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:36,000
Don't discount that old
grey-haired farmer just yet.
609
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:57,640
Just lost my way, to be honest.
610
00:42:57,640 --> 00:42:59,880
I don't know where I am.
611
00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:02,440
This is freaking me out.
612
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:08,120
I'm sweating.
613
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:10,960
Thirsty.
614
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:15,240
I can see water all the way there,
so I'm just going to head toward it
615
00:43:15,240 --> 00:43:18,600
and then try to find my way out
or back to the shelter.
616
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:28,920
I found my way back.
617
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:32,160
Oh, my God.
618
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:35,520
I've never been so happy
to see shoreline before.
619
00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:38,120
Oh, thank God.
620
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:43,640
Thank God.
621
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:46,840
I'm back.
622
00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,000
So upset with myself.
623
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:06,000
I did all the things
you're not meant to do.
624
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:07,080
So silly.
625
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:15,960
When I saw that sun was coming down
and I was in the middle of nowhere,
626
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:20,360
that's when I realised that I was
in a competition and that my time
627
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,160
might be over.
628
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:26,640
And I'm not ready to leave.
629
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:29,960
I'm here...
630
00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:31,440
for another day.
631
00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:01,160
Look how beautiful she is.
632
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:04,200
Oh, such a different vibe
with the sun out.
633
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:09,920
There's a rock over there
that I've named Pride Rock.
634
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:13,240
And I'm going to sit on that every
morning and meditate for 10 minutes.
635
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:24,400
The way my mind works is a balance
of intuition and intellect.
636
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:31,000
Meditation has been my path
to fine-tuning my intuition.
637
00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:36,960
I think you do need a degree
of intellect
638
00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:39,440
to be able to be successful
out here.
639
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:42,840
But you also just need to follow your
gut to do things that feel right.
640
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:47,920
Oh, satisfying.
641
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:48,960
Look at that.
642
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:51,640
Beautiful bush medicine.
643
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:55,840
I studied science at university,
so I am a trained scientist.
644
00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:57,920
And there's that part of my brain
645
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:01,840
that loves to know how things work
at the most minute detail.
646
00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:03,520
So it hasn't completely charred,
647
00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:05,960
it's just sort of dried it out a bit
and hardened it.
648
00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:09,800
People don't often consider nerds
and hardcore survivalists
649
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:11,920
to belong in the same basket.
650
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:15,440
I'm definitely both.
651
00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,800
I didn't discover my love of nature
until my mid-20s
652
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:23,960
when I started hiking
in the Himalayas.
653
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:27,960
I spent a month training at the
Himalayan Mountaineering Institute
654
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:29,160
in Darjeeling.
655
00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:33,320
That opened up a whole avenue
for me of adventure.
656
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:39,000
I think learning survival skills
just organically evolved
657
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,320
from spending
so much time in the outdoors.
658
00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:45,040
A lot of my bushcraft skills
are self-taught.
659
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:49,240
So making notches using axes,
de-looming trees.
660
00:46:49,240 --> 00:46:54,120
Anything that is going to really
help me build a robust,
661
00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:56,080
bomb-proof shelter.
662
00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:58,320
And also I would say
that I've got a pretty good technique
663
00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:02,160
when it comes to fly-fishing
and hard-body lure fishing.
664
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:05,920
I think I'm a serious contender
for Alone.
665
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,520
Having a combination
of science and spirituality
666
00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:10,920
is going to serve me well
out there on the land.
667
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:13,280
And I can't wait to see
what's in store.
668
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:21,440
After days of agonising,
I've 100% locked in
669
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:24,120
the site for my permanent shelter.
670
00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:25,760
I've put the scaffolding together.
671
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:29,520
There she is and that's what the
bones of her are going to look like.
672
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:31,200
I think she looks really good.
673
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:33,360
So my plan is to move in tomorrow.
674
00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:34,800
No ifs or buts.
675
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:37,920
I'm moving in on day 7.
676
00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:40,920
It's going to have the structural
frame, the tarp's going over it.
677
00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:43,960
I'm going to put some rocks around
the bases of the poles as well
678
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:45,920
just to give them
that extra stability.
679
00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:50,560
I want to get
as many rocks up here as possible.
680
00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:55,760
So I'm going to go down the river
and just get rocks.
681
00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:59,160
And fill my pack up with them
and lug them back up the hill.
682
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,240
And then before you know it,
I'll have walls.
683
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:08,840
I reckon I'm going to be carrying
about 40 kilos of rocks each trip.
684
00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:11,200
Which is like, not small.
685
00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:15,160
It's like carrying a small child
or a small person on my back.
686
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:20,680
Here we are.
687
00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:23,680
There's just rocks everywhere.
688
00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:25,240
I'm in Wonderland.
689
00:48:25,240 --> 00:48:26,800
Alyce in Wonderland.
690
00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:33,640
Oh, my God, that is heavy.
691
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:38,120
Building a good shelter
that's warm enough
692
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,160
is going to be important
in my strategy.
693
00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:44,920
You know what, that'll do.
694
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:47,280
Alright, let's see
if we can carry this.
695
00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:52,360
Oh, my God.
696
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:56,480
Ow. Oh, okay, that really hurt.
697
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,000
Fuck.
698
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:05,080
I think I just pulled a muscle
in my hip trying to get up then.
699
00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:07,600
Goodness.
700
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:09,480
That really, really hurt.
701
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:14,760
I've got to get back up the hill.
702
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:19,720
Like, right here.
703
00:49:19,720 --> 00:49:21,200
Oh, my God.
704
00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:24,840
Yeah, that's not good.
705
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:03,960
Humble abode.
706
00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:05,720
I'm pretty happy with that team.
707
00:50:05,720 --> 00:50:07,040
Whoo!
708
00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:11,440
You see this behind me?
709
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:13,400
I made this.
710
00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:14,760
I did.
711
00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:16,400
The one and only.
712
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:18,320
The Mist.
713
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:20,240
So...
714
00:50:20,240 --> 00:50:23,320
I'm going to move
everything into it now.
715
00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:25,160
Mission.
716
00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:27,840
I just got a pep in my step today.
717
00:50:29,240 --> 00:50:30,240
Mad happy.
718
00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:33,320
Alright.
719
00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:35,560
My biggest concern right now
720
00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:39,200
is just making sure
I get the bed frame up there.
721
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:51,080
Ah.
722
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:54,520
Whoo.
723
00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:09,640
Whoo.
724
00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:12,160
Feeling a little tired.
725
00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:22,240
Alright.
726
00:51:22,240 --> 00:51:25,240
I officially moved
into this campsite.
727
00:51:26,840 --> 00:51:27,840
Um...
728
00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:33,520
I should be feeling good about it.
729
00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:36,120
Or maybe I'm just
low blood sugar or something.
730
00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:38,960
Burned a lot of energy doing that.
731
00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:40,800
Those logs were hectic.
732
00:51:59,920 --> 00:52:03,880
It seems after every time
I do some hard yakka,
733
00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:07,040
and I think burn a lot of energy...
734
00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:10,600
I just get
into a very emotional state.
735
00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:14,240
I really wonder
how everyone else is doing.
736
00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:20,120
I just keep having
these big bouts of emotions.
737
00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:23,000
I'm struggling with trying
to find the balance, you know.
738
00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:27,440
Yeah, like I'm just not...
739
00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:32,680
I'm just not enjoying myself
as much as I thought I'd be.
740
00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:36,400
And maybe it's because
it's the alone factor of it.
741
00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:42,960
There's a big chunk of my life
where I did a lot of stuff alone.
742
00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:47,560
Like, I had a drug overdose.
743
00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:49,400
When I was in hospital,
744
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:53,200
no one was with me in the hospital.
745
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:00,120
And...
746
00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:04,040
It's a pretty shit feeling, you know.
747
00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:06,880
Pretty shit feeling.
748
00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:13,120
No one...
749
00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:17,600
No one came.
750
00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:25,080
And my body's like, "What? I thought
you'd left that tough life behind."
751
00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:30,120
Me too, my friend, me too.
752
00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:33,160
But it's a quarter
of a million dollars on the line.
753
00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:40,080
And the only thing
my mind is telling me is like,
754
00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:41,960
"Why are you doing this to yourself?"
755
00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:43,560
You know? Like...
756
00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:45,480
"What are you trying to prove?"
757
00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:56,200
I just didn't think
it would be like this.
758
00:53:57,920 --> 00:53:59,080
(SOBS)
759
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:09,840
I just feel like I'm in like this...
760
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:12,200
constant fight or flight mode
761
00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:13,840
this whole experience.
762
00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:23,880
Yeah,
that's all I'm realising, you know.
763
00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:28,000
And I'm just emotional.
764
00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:33,640
(EXHALES HEAVILY)
765
00:54:33,640 --> 00:54:35,320
Fuck, I needed that cry.
766
00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:37,960
I just needed...
I just needed a big cry.
767
00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:05,680
Oh, God.
768
00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:08,800
This hip has gotten worse.
769
00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:13,160
Really beating myself up for picking
up those rocks in the bag like that.
770
00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:15,600
You know, it wasn't really necessary.
771
00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:18,760
I was going to move
into my permanent shelter today.
772
00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:23,280
And I need to move all my stuff
about 50 metres up the hill,
773
00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:24,720
onto flat ground.
774
00:55:24,720 --> 00:55:28,400
I cannot stay on this sloped block
any longer.
775
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:31,520
It's okay,
I'm going to find a solution.
776
00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:38,080
So this...
this position like on my knees...
777
00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:41,000
Well, on my shins
and leaning a bit to the right,
778
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:42,880
it seems to be better.
779
00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:44,160
Like, workable.
780
00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:46,960
Yeah, that's better.
781
00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:49,120
Right leg, right leg.
782
00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:53,480
I'm just going to take it in small
trips and just move everything up.
783
00:55:55,080 --> 00:56:00,200
I'm going to start with my little
day pack and just see how that goes.
784
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:03,840
Just little steps,
I'm not going to push it.
785
00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:04,840
Oh, my God.
786
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:08,680
You just really can't appreciate
how steep it is.
787
00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:13,560
Oh, it hurts.
788
00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:18,960
Nah.
789
00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:21,080
This is not a good idea.
790
00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:23,560
I physically cannot with this hip.
791
00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:25,200
It's going to destroy me.
792
00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:28,320
I don't know what to do.
793
00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:35,560
(SOBS) I had so many plans.
794
00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:39,840
Because my body feels so low.
795
00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:41,040
I think I have something.
796
00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,120
Oh, no!
797
00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:45,960
How much failure can I take?
798
00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:49,560
I'm building a damn boat
in the Arctic.
799
00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:51,480
Hey, mate, come check out my boat.
800
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:55,040
I can't keep going like this
without a feed.
801
00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:56,440
Oh, no.
802
00:56:56,440 --> 00:56:59,800
I've got one hope
and that is to find fish.
803
00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:03,200
There's so much riding on this kayak,
it's unbelievable.
804
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:05,360
Oh, my hip.
805
00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:06,960
I feel like giving up.
806
00:57:08,720 --> 00:57:11,200
(LINE BUZZING)
807
00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:13,560
I just don't want to be doing this
alone, you know.
