This is "Alone."

Dumped into a place
you've never been to before.

Extreme conditions that
are only gonna get worse...

and you've gotta survive.

It's like
I've literally been dropped

in a foreign world.

Ah!

We're in the wild parts
of western Tasmania.

-
- Jesus!

There's a reason why
people don't live out here.

- It's totally untamed.

Feels like
I've broken my ankle.

You're not safe
to continue.

I will not tap out.

Let's get to work.

Job's done.

Yes!

We caught
a brown trout!

Look at that.

Eel for dinner!Yeow!

Trout right there.

It's gonna be the
toughest thing we've ever done.

I can see
something looking at me.

Oh, my God!

I think this place
wants to turn me into a killer.

I'm ready to eat.
I'm so hungry.

I am a completely
changed person.

-The lake's rising.
-It's relentless, man.

The lake has officially
taken our shelter.

I have no shelter.

I don't think you can
go into anything like this

without being
a little bit unhinged.

We're in the wild parts
of western Tasmania.

It's cold. It's rugged.
It's unforgiving.

All ten of us
are bat-shit crazy.

I'm actually here. Whew!

I have always seen nature
as a place that embraces me

in my deepest,
darkest emotions.

The land is the ultimate
therapist, the ultimate healer.

Right now, we're strangers
to each other,

this land and I,
and in a couple of months,

we're gonna know each other
really, really well.

My main goal
in this is to

bring that money home
for my family.

It's my purpose here...

so tapping out
is not an option for me.

Might sound
a little bit crazy...

Here we go.

but...

I'm gonna be there
for 300 days.

Look at this place.

Well... here I am.

To be able to win this
competition is gonna be tough

but I'm prepared for that.

I'll definitely be praying.

Just inviting God
into this experience with me.

When I'm alone
in the wilderness,

I become this wild woman that
is part of the environment

and she just knows how to be

and how to move
and what to do...

Here I go.

and I'm hoping
that she will help me win.

Here's my water source.

Hello! Hello!

Oh, you are so sweet.

Oh, look at this!

My own little bit of paradise.

I'm not a hippie.

And I've got nothing
against hippies,

but I'm not one that's gonna
dance around a tree.

Like, I'm just
an Aussie bush bloke

and I know that this
is gonna be a tough gig.

I've spent a lot of time
in the bush

but this one's gonna be
exceptional.

But I want it tough.
Bring it on.

It's just a whole lot
of fuck-all out there.

This is nothing
like I expected.

It's against human
nature to be surviving alone.

We're meant to be with a tribe.
But to win this,

I will stay out here
for as long as it takes.

This is not a gum boot
kind of day. Oh, yeah!

I did tell myself!

I'm not gonna
get in the water.

That's just a waste
of energy.

This is so nice.

But enough of that. Let's go
find somewhere to put a shelter.

It's scary out there
in Mother Nature

all by yourself.

But I know that
I don't give up easy.

I'm very good at
problem-solving, persevering.

Made it onto the land finally.

Bloody hell, there's ice
everywhere. It's so cold.

There's only three ways out,
you tap out,

you get medically extracted,

or you're the last one
standing.

I hope to be
the last one standing.

Let's do this, guys.

This is definitely
harder than I thought

it was gonna be. I thought,
yeah, off the boat,

you know, walk up 50 meters,

find a couple of trees
to tie between.

It is so thick.
This place is hectic.

But I like to have
a goal that's difficult.

Yep. You've got to be
kidding me.

Whatever's gonna be
thrown my way,

I'm not gonna quit,
I'm not gonna tap out. No way.

I will make it work
'cause that's what I do.

There are ten
people here hoping to win this,

but only one can.

There's a 250,000
dollar prize

for the last person standing.

I came here to win.

As long as I'm drawing breath
and I can take a step...

Let's do it.

...I'm in it to win it.

Alright. Bon voyage. Get out of
here, you scoundrels.

I'll see youse when I see
youse.

Cool.

There they go.

I think I got boat hair.

Whew!

Oh, shit.
That looks like snow.

Yeah, I reckon there's snow
up in the mountain.

That's why it's so cold.

Oh, shit.

Jobs that have to be done.

Whoo-hoo! Perfect.

I wanna prove to people that
if you're 60-plus,

it makes no difference.

Oh I am a lumberjack
and I'm okay

Sleep all night
and I work all day

You're not as nimble
as you used to be,

but you just gotta go
a bit slower.

There we go.

Well, well, well.

Look what I just found.

To all you out there,
that might not mean a lot,

but to me...

now I've got something
to drink out of.

'Cause otherwise it was just
gonna be a big pot,

and if I've got fish or eels

or any other
bloody thing in there,

that'd be a pain in the butt.
So now

we have a drinking vessel.

What was it?

Carlton Cold.
No, I don't know.

Oh, bit of a terrarium
in there.

Ripper, Rita!

I think being 60-plus
going into this challenge,

you have one advantage
and it's that my metabolism

will be much slower
than younger people.

Alright, tent pegs done.

My body, I'm hoping,

will retain fats
for a longer period of time

than younger people
with a higher metabolism.

So I am gonna get a shelter up
straightaway

and then I'm gonna get
huntin' and fishin'.

Time to make fire.

I sort of, live on...

the theory...
just keep at it.

Just keep doing stuff
as you get older.

I retired three years ago

and I'm just non-stop
doing' stuff.

Um, camped with grand kids,

caravanning,
hunting, fishing.

I just don't stop.

Yes!

There's just so much to do
out there,

I need another lifetime.

This is pushing the boundaries
a little bit, though.

How are you feeling' about it?

The only thing
I'm worried about

is you falling over
and breaking a leg

or chopping a finger off, or...

- Good point.
- Yeah.

I have had a bit of a
record. She's a decent size.

Whoa!

Scared the shit
out of me, pal.

Yeah, I've been bitten by
foxes and possums. That hurt.

I got attacked by a koala bear.

Eh, not just me legs.

I've actually been knocked out
by a kangaroo.

Maybe I'll bleed to death.

Had a barb from a stingray
in me hand.

I got chased
by a grizzly bear in Alaska.

"Apocalypse Now."

Oh, I got bitten
by a crocodile.

I like it in the river.

I would describe myself
as a bushman.

Gotta bring a gun, though.

I just wanted to make my life
an adventure. Processin'...

I've always had a natural
attraction to the bush.

Let's make fire!

I haven't had to tune
myself up on too many skills

because I'm just comfortable
that everything

that's in front of me
I'm gonna be able to do.

Sixty-two years
of doing this stuff,

it gives you a confidence,
I think.

I think we're set.

What are you gonna miss
the most?

Toilet paper.

I've got to that age, I don't
feel like a big head sayin',

"You know, I think I can do
this." I know I can do it.

We're outta here.

Look out.

But if I do get beaten, right,

my God, I wanna meet
that person.

Yeah, and pat 'em on the back.
We can do this.

I know I'm gonna get
the journey. That's a given.

But I'd love to get the money
'cause it'll help me kids.

It'd be just a great,
you know, cuddly thing

to be able to help 'em out
in some way.

I'm as dry as a witch's tit.

-
- Rock and roll.

This pot of water.

Mmm. Tannin.

Better fill up my stubby now
I've gone to the trouble of

cleaning' it out
and everything.

Oh geez, I just swallowed
a mosquito, I think.

Or one of those things.
Get out.

Get out!

This is...

without a doubt,
one of the most beautiful...

spots that I have seen.

Words can't really describe it.
I feel...

Oh! I reckon I've seen a fish
bobbin' on the surface

somewhere over there.

Reckon I'm seeing'
some ripples.

I'm pretty ready.
Suss me land out a bit

and, um,
I'll see what's on offer.

See the shimmering reflection
on the trees?

This is just beautiful.

Before I do anything,

I just wanna take this moment
in for five minutes...

before I start.

I think it's important to have
some sort of little thing

before you go anywhere
just to introduce yourself

to the bush or the country.

Indigenous
and non-Indigenous,

everyone's got their own way
of connecting.

I think it's more the thought

and the energy
that you're putting out there.

It's hard to believe
that I'm here now.

Had that little moment of...

who I am,
what I'm doing here...

why I'm doing it.

Fuck. Can't believe I'm here!

First little task of the day
is going to be to find...

flat ground.

I feel like there is
a big calling for me

to be out in bush.

It's probably a lot to do with
my Indigenous heritage as well.

Sloppy!

Having a natural respect
for the land

and listening to your
instincts,

you know,
actively try and be

as connected as I can be
to country.

I've just gotta think, whatever
shelter I do right now,

it's not...

it's not forever.

First night's shelter,
close to the water and all,

so I'll give it a bit
of tree cover there

to help me combat the winds.

I don't like wind.
Wind is not my friend.

I even wrote a poem
about wind.

Basically says that
I don't like wind.

Alright.

That old fart-assing around.
Let's get into it.

My strategy for surviving
when I get out on the land

is to KISS,
keep it simple, stupid.

It's an acronym.

So I just want to
keep everything simple.

Get my shelter knocked up
pretty quick,

and then for the rest part,
keep it simple, stupid.

Oh, I'll tell you what.
It's a surreal feeling

that,

there's no dinner.

- Going into this challenge...

I've opted not to put on
excess weight.

I'm probably a kilo lighter
than I normally am.

I guess my philosophy is,
I don't wanna be starving.

I don't want it to be a
starvation contest for myself.

I want to be able
to bring in food

and showcase what I can do.

Poncho. Put it over that
as another insulation layer

and that should hopefully
hold it all together.

And then I'll lay
my sleeping bag out on top.

Alright, so, that's pretty...

Let's just suss it out.

Oh, quite nice!

Now I'm totally alone.

Holy fuck.

What have I done?

It's so scary.

There's some sign
of pademelons here.

And one big hop...

there,
then another big hop.

I'll see if can make
a little trap for a pademelon.

This kind of survival
is a game

against your ability
to sit with the uncomfortable,

to sit through the suck.

Bit of a mind game.

You could sit here
for 30 days without food,

but what drives
you to tap out?

Could be missing
your loved ones,

could be just hungry,
cold, afraid.

I think this might be it.

Just near the water and fishing
will be key for me,

'cause that's my strong point.

I reckon
I'll establish camp.

I think first few days,
shelter, shelter, shelter.

Except...
some Tassie devil poo there.

There's bones and fur.

And there's poo there.

That's not good.

It's a Tassie devil area here.

I see their poo everywhere.

I'm gonna build, like,
a headboard behind me.

Because...
they might scurry around

and I can't even hear them
at all.

'Cause I can't hear a thing.
Not one thing.

- I'm so excited for you.
- I feel the same.

I've been deaf
since birth. At the age of 17,

had to go and get
a cochlear implant

so that I could learn
to hear things

that I've never heard before.

Because of my
social isolation,

and the challenges
that I've been through,

has really drawn me
to nature,

and I feel like I'm
included in nature.

So I think being alone
is one of my strengths.

I've always loved
going out bush

and going fishing
since I was two years old.

My dad taught me
bush craft skills.

He was like my best friend.

He always taught me
to never give up.

I'm doing this
to make my dad proud

and, um, to be able to
show that, you know,

a deaf lady can be
the last one standing.

My wife, Jess, she grew up
with a, um, dad who was deaf

so I think, um, she understands
who I am as a deaf person.

Love you so much.

I love Jess very much.
She's my soulmate.

I know we will miss each other,
that's for sure,

but with the prize money,

Jess and I will be able
to buy a home in Tasmania

and we'll be able
to start our family.

She'll be back soon. Yeah.

So I'm out here
for our future.

Getting a little nervous
because it's getting a bit cloudy

and the sun's disappearing
behind the trees now.

I need to really work quickly
before it gets dark.

It's gonna be scary tonight...

in the cold, in the dark.

Anything could happen.
There could be

Tassie devils
screaming at the door,

coming in and out of here.

We want that to be tight.

I don't want animals to crawl
into my shelter

and, you know,
give me a fright,

so I'm going to be building
this headboard

to protect my sanity.

Back at home, I rely on
my wife or my dog

to alert me
for whatever's out there,

but out here, I'm by myself.

Everything's pitch-black.

Just inside now.

Inside my shelter.

But it's hard to sleep.

There's so much noise
out there.

I don't like not knowing
what's out there.

Yeah, my brain goes
to weird places.

I'm not brave enough to leave
my cochlear implant on.

Let me know
if there's an animal out there

screeching away.

Turning it off,
there's complete silence.

You hear nothing.

Going to be a fun night
with the devils tonight.

I just heard
something outside.

Fuck. I wanna look...

but I'm so comfortable.

I'm havin' a fucking look.

I am most afraid
of starvation.

I wanna be able to bring in
food, so I've just

gotta do what I can when I can.

-
- It's a small rodent, for sure.

Alright, so just there...

is a little mouse hole.

Ha, it's probably
a mouse den...

That's great.

under this tree.

- Here he is.
-

Goin' down the hole, so...

- Yeah, I don't know.

-

Fucking got him. Don't know how
far down he's goin'.

Hopefully he's just here,
like...

So I just wanna give it a good
enough look that I'm satisfied.

Don't wanna wrestle a big snake
out either. That'd be not ideal.

Could be down here too,
the pricks.

It's hard to see down there.

Where the fuck
would you have gone, buddy?

Fucking vanished
like a fart in a fan factory.

So that was a bit of
an unexpected

start of the morning.

-
- That's,

that's a real shame, but
it is a really good sign.

Don't wanna ruin that hole
too much, to be honest.

I'm gonna start my process
in making a couple of traps.

Should be able to make
two or three traps.

'Cause that could be
a very good food supply for me.

First night out here, and...

it was alright.
So, that's a win, you know?

Just do that
another 80-odd times,

and I'll be done.

It's such a blessing. It's such
a blessing to be here.

You know,
have the chance to...

Have a look at this.
That is my first find.

That's not a long neck bottle,
but, man, that is fantastic.

A jar. That is good.

That is gonna be
a great handline for me.

That is an awesome find.

Awesome find!

So good. Thanks, God.
That's... so good.

Thank you Lord
for giving us food

Thank you Lord
for giving us food

My wife and I grew up
in a small country town.

We're country folk. We're
really involved in church.

We've got an active
church community in town there

and Lauren and I love being
part of that with the kids.

But I'm not gonna be alone
when I'm alone

because God's
gonna be with me out there.

He's got my back,
and it's gonna be great.

I can win this competition.
Beautiful!

I've been fishing my whole life
and I'm confident

of being able to
put fish on the table.

I love you. Yeah.

When I was 16, I read my Bible

and this one verse
stood out to me.

- One, two, three!
- Ah!

He said, "Be strong
and courageous."

And those words
just stuck out to me.

"Be strong and courageous."

And since that moment, that's
almost been my life verse.

This is gonna test me,

but it's just an opportunity
to be strong and courageous.

Lots of hungry burps
going on in the tummy.

My tummy is used to having

a big, fat breakfast
at the minute.

It's all good.

Look at that. Ducks.

He's tiny. About the size
of a grapefruit,

but it tastes nice.

- Or maybe...

I'll just nab
a big, fat, brown trout,

like a floppin' monster, yeah.

-
- Pardon me.

Okay. Point the jar
where I want it to go.

Give it a lob out.

One of my goals coming in here

was to come in here
the heaviest I'd ever been

and probably tip the scales
at about 105 kegs.

Alright. Often times,
I mean, if they're flighty,

they'll... It could take
a little while,

but often times,
when you first cast

is a really good time, you
know?

There's... dust and stuff
that's disturbed, so.

The importance of
getting food is massive.

There's only so much
fat reserves on your body,

and I guess
the clock is ticking.

But I can win this competition

because I've got the mindset,
I've got the grit.

Exciting task.

But more importantly,
God's got my back,

and it's such a comfort
having that faith.

Pardon me.

Little hunger pangs.

Food will come. It'll come.

Now I'm fishing.

I'm gonna use this
for making some of those traps.

It's not sausage. Saw sedge.

I'm also gonna use it
for getting some breakfast

'cause you can eat
the bottom of it, so.

Gonna get a fair bit of this.

Funny what you think tastes
good when you're hungry.

Yeah, well, anyway, rat on
the rotisserie would be nice.

If there's one of the bastards
probably a thousand of 'em

there, so that could be
a really easy

source of food for me.

The holes of these mice, or
whatever little rodent it is,

they're like that big.

So if I were to put,
you know, three or four

at the entrances
of some of these holes,

I reckon I'd have a fair chance
of getting one or two.

A part of my strategy
coming in here was to practice

as many passive ways of getting
food as I possibly can.

Just kind of push down
on itself, it doesn't unravel.

I don't really want to be
exerting energy

after, you know,
the first week.

I want to just be sitting back
and relaxing.

If it doesn't work,
I can use 'em

as bloody-as fish traps, so.

The only difference between
this one and a fish trap

will be that the top
will have a bit of wire.

So the idea will be that...
it will go in here,

and then I've got a heap of
little bloody sharp bits

like that, so when they go in,
they don't want to come out.

Wish I put me weight on
in me ass.

Butt is sore.
Let's put it to action.

Rat Trap 3000.

I'll just put a bit of stuff
around it just to...

block any other bloody holes
that it's gonna come out of.

Trap is deployed.

Fingers crossed,
we're having some,

some wood rat stew.

I'm gonna risk it
for the biscuit.

This is where I want to be.

High and dry.

Sunshine.

Plenty of water.

Firewood.

Did I mention sunshine?

All about the sunshine.

I like it.

But I need to get back
to my other camp.

Moving camp, I'm probably
gonna be burning more energy

than I am getting back in.

Death trap,
everywhere you look.

Not a horrible spot
that they dropped me off.

It just didn't connect
with me.

I felt really closed off,

and I'm somebody that
doesn't like to be tied down.

Just like to have freedom
and open spaces.

Oh, that's a pretty rock.

Oh.
Okay, focus, Karla.

I live a pretty
nomadic lifestyle,

so wherever I park up
is where home is.

The white picket fence
and the 2.5 kids isn't my path.

Career started off
in zoo keeping,

and then
I went to naturalist

and commercial skipper,
a helicopter pilot,

and now I'm working
as an expedition leader.

I like the fact
that I have ultimate freedom.

Somebody can call me
and be like, "Hey, Karla,

I need a guiding
position filled

in Arnhem Land for six weeks.
Can you come?" "Yes, I can."

That's freedom that very few
people have in this life.

I know that I've got
a good set of survival skills.

Definitely knowing wildlife
is gonna be a strength for me.

I think I have a general grasp
of fishing, and I can hunt.

Foraging is definitely
a skill of mine.

I love bush tucker.
Every time I go out bush,

I'm looking, "Can I eat that?"

So I've got a good,
sound knowledge of what plants

you can and can't eat.
Bush soap. I've got skills,

but I want to test them.

For me, I want to win.
For me, I want to succeed.

And I want to come out on top.

Still haven't eaten anything,
and I'm starting to feel

a bit weak now, and I'm just
gonna get weaker and weaker.

I'm gonna check the trail cam.

I just want to see
if there was any activity.

So, we'll see.

There is...
That is a wallaby.

That's just straight up
in that game trail.

He's just feeding.
Okay. This is good stuff.

Sorry, little guy,
but you are on the menu.

This is a little bit more
surrounded, eh?

Look at that.
Everything's disappeared.

So...

next plan is,

see all this water
dropping off the tarp?

Well, the plan is
to fold this edge up...

like that.

And then, make all the water
run to one end,

and then I'll make myself
a little bloody water sink.

You know, we're
making a gutter.

Starting to work already.
Works real good.

Build a little tank down there
out of something.

Not sure what yet, but...

And then I won't have
to boil water all the time.

Save some bloody firewood.

I can just lay under there
with my mouth open.

So, really, I just need
four sticks, four pegs.

My son Rhys always says

I don't drink enough water,
so I will here.

Me poor old bloody
zucchini fingers,

by shit,
they've done some work.

One thing I've noticed
with age,

you lose a bit of dexterity.

I think it's the word.
That's a big word for Muzza.

Not the prettiest thing
I've ever seen, but bingo.

That really runs.

Should fill that
in no time at all.

So, gutter's made,
tank's made.

Mission completed.
Jesus, look at that.

Got half a stubby
just in a couple minutes.

Have a drink.

Oh, this shit does taste
better than the lake water.

I'm looking for some
nice, big, flat rocks.

Today's plan is keep working
on the shelter.

That's priority.

Get a warm,
dry firewood system.

If I can get that down pat,

I'll feel less stressed
during the night.

Uses a lot of
energy, this work.

I'm just worried about
just spending too much energy

and cause me to lose
too much weight.

I can feel my abs burnin'.

Gotta get rid of the grass
and tree roots

so the heat in the fire
doesn't catch on and travel,

but I'll layer it
with some rocks on the base

anyway, but just to be safe.

Game of "Tetris."

Just trying to block up
the holes a little bit.

Get some mud in there

so the embers don't fall
down onto the ground.

I think it's looking great! I
need a big stone to put on top.

So close. Come on.

It takes off
and then it goes away.

Come on. You got this.

You got this.

Come on.

Come on. You got this.

I think it caught on,
but it just went out, so

I need to try and watch it
as it catches on.

Don't give up.

Stay in the game.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Fire. Thank fuck.

Sorry for swearing.

Just watching to make sure
it's not...

going too high up
into my shelter.

Bugger. Watch for those
embers going up.

I'll just let it go
down at night...

to smoke.

Because I can't hear when
something starts taking off

and I'm just sitting
in my shelter,

sleeping in my shelter,
all's fine and dandy, and...

there's an emergency,
"Oh, that poor deaf lady."

Don't worry. She's fine.
She's smart.

I'm always met with,

"No, you can't, Ceilidh.
You can't do that."

But I've learnt a lot
already in life.

I push through.

If I fumble, make a fool
of myself, who cares?

Just pick up and keep going.

You can be a lady
with a disability.

You can do this.

So, one day at a time.

One day at a time.

I can feel my legs
and muscles

just feeling, like,
a little bit...

Ooh! Another.

Sore, crampy.

It's definitely
from lack of food.

I need food.

I need to procure food.

I've hunted with spears...
There it is.

throwing sticks,
clubs, knives,

and even just
with my bare hands.

As a kid, I remember
going up on a hill

looking over rabbit warrens
with a little .22 Magnum,

shooting rabbits, and then
learning how to skin a rabbit,

and dad showing you
how to do it.

So I guess I've had
a pretty unique upbringing

in my Indigenous culture
and my non-Indigenous culture.

It does allow me to have
a foot in both camps.

I was lucky enough to play

in the professional
NRL system.

I guess all those things,
as a footy player, teach you

the skills with mental
strength and determination,

and, you know,
you don't half-ass things.

You do it to the best
that you can

and get in the grind,
see things through.

Hold it. Hold it. Hold it.

I am leaving behind
my wife, Ainsley,

and, um, our two little kids,
Remi and Lani.

Big mate.

Me and my son have got
such a close bond.

That's gonna hit home.
That's gonna be a challenge.

I've got to not try and think
about him while I'm out there.

I'll be back before you know
it.

Aw! Oh.

It's gonna be bloody hard,

but I came here to win
for my family and my kids.

That was one of the hardest
things I've had to do.

But also,
all of Indigenous Australia

to be able to showcase
a few traditional things.

You know, I want that title
of the first

Indigenous person
to win "Alone."

Wonder if worms...

I wonder if they can,
like, sense the vibration...

and, um,

like, go deeper or something.

Oh, big sucker.

Ah!

Something's been here
scratching and I presume

they're chasing worms.

So I was like, "Well,
don't go against the locals.

See what's there." And I just
got two worms...straight away.

Oh, my God. I'm so excited.
This is like the first...

proper...

bait. I've found
little small, pissant baits.

Ooh! He's a fiery bastard!

So a rock with wire,
and then about a foot of...

um, line
to the, uh, the worm.

So, hopefully I can get it out
a little, a decent way.

Moment of truth.

I'm bloody hungry though,
let me tell ya.

I feel I'm hungry.
I need food.

Fall at your own risk.

Ooh.

You know, I hate to say it.

But I fucking miss, I miss

my wife and kids,
like, terribly.

And I think it's the whole not
touching point, like, the...

the contact when you're away.

Like, I've been away from
my wife and kids before, but...

I've never gone this long
without talking to them.

It just, it does, it...

If you say it out loud and
start thinking' about it, it...

it absolutely gets to you.

Anyway. Ah.

We made it
through another night.

It's been five days
since I had a decent meal.

I'm tired,
exhausted, hungry.

Got the...got the diarrhoea

that you get when you don't
have much food and when you...

your body starts to go into
that ketosis mode, I think.

So, I think, this morning,

it's time to go fishing.

Branch ready with fishing hooks
and little, itty-bitty worm.

I thought I could last
another few more days

not having to worry about food,
but I need to start now.

I'm on the skinny side,
on the lean side,

so I'm not a big person, don't
have a lot of fat on me, so.

Oh, yeah.
There was a trout

that just came here and it's
going up, and it saw me.

It was a, it was a trout.

There are trout in here.

I saw it with my own eyes,
there.

I see a white-bellied
sea eagle.

That means there must be
food out here for him to eat.

My dad had a sea eagle
tattooed to his arm.

And dad was a really good
fisherman and hunter.

So dad taught me how to fish.

Dad really,
really helped me to be myself.

He really shaped me
for who I am today.

Yeah, dad wasn't
my biological father.

Oh, he...he and I met
when I was about one.

He met my mom. I was a little
one-year-old toddler.

And he took me in.

He loved me so much.

He got leukaemia...when
I was around two.

My mom and dad were like,

"We want to have a child,"
before he goes through chemo,

so they had my little brother.

My little baby brother. He's
such a good fisherman, he is.

So he had leukaemia.
He survived.

He survived that, and...

we lived...we lived
some happy days.

Then, uh, dad
got leukaemia again

when I was 16 years old.

Yeah. I was 16 and Grant was
14.

It was a long,
he had a long battle.

And he
couldn't make it.

He didn't make it.

It's like my dad's
watching over me.

How's my hair lookin'?

Check this out.

A water tank.

Plenty of water.
That's great.

Won't have to light a fire
for a few days.

The tank's full,
so I'm stoked.

Right, I'm gonna go on a,
just a bait mission.

Day five.

Five days is the longest
I've ever been without eating.

It's not about being the best
bloody fisherman out here.

It's about being able
to find bait.

I just found my first worm.

Look at this, another one.

Jesus.

Look at that.

That's one of the biggest worms
I've ever dug up.

You fucking beauty.

That gives us hope.

Running out of daylight.

Four.

Let's go.

You'd have to think
you gotta catch something.

There's gotta be some really,
really dopey fish out there.

Look at that.
Normally I'd chop him in

but I'll try everything,
you know,

before a whole worm as well.

I don't want to catch
the smart ones.

Want to catch the dumb ones.

Suits my personality.

Right.

Oh, shit.
I got a bite! I got a bite!

What?! Jesus!
