Original subtitles

Kaila: I HATE SPIDERS.

WE'RE IN, LIKE, BANANA SPIDER TERRITORY HERE.

David: YES, WE ARE.

BANANA SPIDER IS, I'M PRETTY SURE,

THE DEADLIEST SPIDER IN THE WORLD.

WE DON'T LIKE IT HERE, AND WE'RE NOT SLEEPING.

Kaila: I NOTICED SO MANY HUGE SPIDERS.

SUPER POISONOUS.

WITHIN FOUR HOURS, YOU'RE DEAD.

WELL, I'VE ACTUALLY HEARD IT WAS MORE LIKE 10 MINUTES.

OH!

WHAT THE *BLEEP* WAS THAT?

DAMN IT!

OH, IT BETTER NOT BE A BANANA SPIDER.

Narrator: ONE MAN...

Narrator: AND ONE WOMAN...

I'M NOT LEAVING!

Narrator: ...ALONE FOR 21 DAYS...

WHAT IS THAT? ...WITH NO FOOD.

OH, GOD. I'M FREEZING.

Narrator: ...NO CLOTHES...

Narrator: ...NO WATER. GOD! OH!

Narrator: DO THEY HAVE THE SKILLS AND THE WILL...

HURTS.

Narrator: ...TO OVERCOME THE MOST PRIMAL

SURVIVAL CHALLENGE OF THEIR LIVES?

-- Captions by VITAC -- www.vitac.com

David: UGH! SUCKS.

CAPTIONS PAID FOR BY DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS

Narrator: QUEBRADA VALENCIA LIES DEEP

IN THE NORTHERN COLOMBIAN JUNGLE.

HIDDEN FAR BELOW ITS DENSE CANOPY IS A MOUNTAIN RIVER

THAT SNAKES THROUGH

A STEEP-SIDED JAGGED LIMESTONE GORGE,

ACCESSIBLE ONLY ON FOOT OR HORSEBACK.

THIS WILL BE THE SURVIVALISTS' HOME.

THEY WILL SHARE THIS LANDLOCKED PRISON WITH JAGUARS,

BLOODSUCKING TICKS,

AND THE WORLD'S MOST VENOMOUS SPIDER,

THE BANANA, OR WANDERING, SPIDER.

IT'S HIGHLY AGGRESSIVE,

AND ITS FANGS INJECT A LETHAL NEUROTOXIN

CAUSING PARALYSIS AND ASPHYXIATION.

THIS IS THE GREATEST!

OH, I DO LOVE A GOOD ADVENTURE.

I'M DAVID. MY HOMETOWN IS DENVER.

I'M A PROFESSIONAL YOGA TEACHER AND WILDERNESS GUIDE.

I'M AN ADVENTURER. I'M A SEEKER.

WELL, THERE'S DEFINITELY SOME THICK FOLIAGE GOING ON HERE,

BUT A LOT OF USEFUL PLANTS AROUND.

MY FATHER SAYS THAT COMPARED TO THE REST OF THE WORLD,

I MARCH TO THE BEAT OF A DIFFERENT DRUMMER.

IN FACT, HE SAYS I MARCH TO THE SONG

OF A WHOLE DIFFERENT BAND.

HE'S THE FIRST ONE TO REALLY SHARE THE WILDERNESS WITH ME

AND RECOGNIZE THAT I HAD AN APTITUDE.

I'M AN EXPERT AT PRIMITIVE FIRE-STARTING.

I'VE MADE OVER A THOUSAND BOW-DRILLED FIRES

AND OVER A HUNDRED HAND-DRILLED FIRES.

FOUR YEARS AGO, MY FATHER WAS IN A CYCLING ACCIDENT

THAT LEFT HIM A QUADRIPLEGIC, AND I WENT OFF THE DEEP END.

I DEALT WITH DEPRESSION,

AND I STUMBLED INTO THIS YOGA STUDIO,

WHICH CHANGED MY LIFE.

THIS IS A SPIRITUAL JOURNEY FOR ME,

AND MY GOAL IS TO LEARN ABOUT MYSELF.

Narrator: DAVID'S IN GREAT PHYSICAL SHAPE,

THANKS TO YEARS OF YOGA PRACTICE.

BUT IT'S HIS EXPERIENCE AS A WILDERNESS GUIDE

THAT HE HOPES WILL PAY OFF IN THE COLOMBIAN JUNGLE.

DAVID STARTS WITH A PRIMITIVE SURVIVAL RATING,

OR PSR, OF 7.5.

David: AM I GOING TO BE ABLE TO MAKE IT 21 DAYS?

I CAN MAKE IT A LOT LONGER THAN THAT.

I'M REALLY EXCITED.

DEFINITELY A LITTLE NERVOUS, THOUGH.

I KNOW THERE'S A BUNCH OF LITTLE THINGS OUT HERE

THAT CAN KILL ME.

HI. I'M KAILA.

I'M A CUSTOM KNIFEMAKER FROM TROY, NEW HAMPSHIRE,

AND I'M SINGLE.

I THINK THAT WOMEN CAN DO JUST AS MUCH AS MEN CAN,

AND I DON'T LIKE HAVING HELP FROM ANYBODY.

I LIKE DOING THINGS ON MY OWN.

I'M DOING THIS CHALLENGE FOR MY DAUGHTER.

I HAVE AN 8-YEAR-OLD,

AND I REALLY WANT TO JUST MAKE HER PROUD

AND SHOW HER THAT IF YOU SET YOUR MIND

TO ANYTHING, YOU CAN ACCOMPLISH IT.

WE ARE EXTREMELY HIGH UP.

I'VE BEEN DOING SURVIVAL TRAINING

FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS NOW.

WHEN I WAS A YOUNG GIRL, MY DAD USED TO TAKE ME

OUT HUNTING ALL THE TIME AND FISHING AND CAMPING,

SO I REALLY GOT ALL OF MY SURVIVAL SKILLS

AND STUFF FROM MY DAD.

Narrator: THANKS TO HER FATHER'S TRAINING,

KAILA IS WELL-VERSED IN HUNTING,

TRAPPING, AND SURVIVING THE ELEMENTS,

BUT THE FACT THAT SHE HAS NEVER LEFT HER HOMELAND BEFORE

MEANS THAT SHE'S IN FOR A SHOCK WHEN SHE ARRIVES IN THE JUNGLE.

KAILA'S INITIAL PSR IS SET AT 6.4.

ALL RIGHT. LET'S DO THIS.

I HAVE NO PROBLEM BEING NAKED.

IF I COULD BE NAKED ALL THE TIME

AND IT WAS SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE, I WOULD.

I DON'T THINK THAT ITS AN ISSUE.

IT'S MUCH COOLER NOW.

MY GREATEST FEAR ABOUT THIS CHALLENGE

IS NOT GETTING ALONG WITH MY PARTNER.

AT THE END OF THE DAY,

IT'S HARD FOR ME TO OPEN UP TO PEOPLE.

BUT, I MEAN, WE KNOW THAT WE HAVE TO MAKE THIS WORK.

I'VE BEEN REALLY PRACTICING TRYING TO BE MINDFUL,

BE VERY PRESENT, AND HERE I AM.

NOW THAT I'M ACTUALLY NAKED AND IN THE JUNGLE,

MY MIND IS JUST GOING WILD.

THIS IS A BEAST.

HI!

HOW YOU DOING? GOOD, HOW ARE YOU?

DOING GOOD. KAILA.

DAVID. NICE TO FINALLY MEET YOU.

PLEASURE TO MEET YOU, KAILA. YEAH.

THIS FEELS A LITTLE...

GARDEN OF EDEN-ISH.

RIGHT? I LIKE THAT.

HOPEFULLY WE WON'T BE CALLED UPON TO POPULATE THE EARTH.

OH, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT.

NO? THAT WOULD BE STRANGE.

IT'S A LITTLE AWKWARD BEING NAKED, BUT...

IT IS, INDEED. ...IT'S NOT BAD, RIGHT?

WELL, YOU WANT TO CHECK OUT OUR BAGS?

LET'S CHECK OUT OUR BAGS. ALL RIGHT.

Narrator: IN ADDITION TO A BASIC POT,

THE SURVIVALISTS HAVE EACH BROUGHT ONE ITEM.

I HAVE A TRUSTY BOW-DRILL SET.

OH, AWESOME.

AND I HARVESTED THE SAGE A FEW YEARS AGO

WHEN WORKING IN THE DESERT OF SOUTHERN UTAH,

AND IT WORKS EVEN WHEN THE WOOD IS MOIST, IS WET.

I HAVE MY CUSTOM KNIFE THAT I MADE.

NO WAY. YEAH.

YOU MADE THAT?

I SURE DID. SUPER EXCITED ABOUT IT.

HOLY BADASS-ERY. WE HAVE A MAP.

A MAP! SO...

YES, AWESOME. ALL RIGHT.

LET'S TAKE A LOOKY-LOO.

WE'RE SOMEWHERE ON THIS RIVER AREA,

AND THIS LOOKS MOUNTAINY...

YUP. ...TO ME.

BUT LOOKS LIKE WE GOT SOME NICE WATERING HOLES HERE,

SO LET'S ROLL THIS DIRECTION.

SO WHERE YOU FROM? I AM FROM NEW HAMPSHIRE.

OH, EAST COAST GIRL, HUH? YEAH. HOW ABOUT YOU?

I LIVE IN DENVER.

I'VE TRAVELED A LOT,

AND I LIVED IN THE AMAZON AS A PEACE CORP VOLUNTEER.

SO I WAS THERE FOR A LITTLE OVER TWO YEARS.

I'VE NEVER ACTUALLY BEEN OUT OF THE UNITED STATES

BEFORE, SO... SHUT UP!

YEAH, IT'S CRAZY, HUH?

GOOD FOR YOU!

David: LET'S HEAR IT FOR KAILA.

VERY EXCITED TO BE WORKING WITH HER,

SUPER EXCITED, GREAT ATTITUDE,

GOING TO BE A LOT OF FUN.

ARE YOU GOING TO SERENADE ME ON THIS TRIP?

YEP!

AH! *BLEEP*

YOU ALL RIGHT? YEP.

THAT'S ONE OF THOSE LITTLE FROGS.

THE NATIVES WOULD USE ITS POISON

AS TO POISON THE DARTS. DARTS?

YEAH.

EXCUSE ME, BUDDY, GOT TO GO AROUND YOU.

LOOKING LIKE THE ONLY WAY

WE'RE GOING TO GET THROUGH IS IN THE WATER.

YOU WANT TO JUMP IN, OR...?

WELL, IF THAT'S HOW WE GOT TO GO.

I MEAN, IT'S PRETTY HIGH UP, BUT, YEAH.

GO THROUGH IT. WE CAN JUST SWIM THROUGH,

GO RIGHT THROUGH THERE, AND HEAD DOWN.

GOOD. ALL RIGHT.

ONE, TWO, THREE!

WHOO!

YIP-YAW! WHOO! WHOO!

I WAS REALLY NERVOUS AT FIRST, MEETING MY PARTNER.

I THINK HE MIGHT BE A LITTLE WEIRD,

BUT WE SEEMED TO HIT IT OFF REALLY WELL

AND WE'RE GETTING ALONG GREAT.

OKAY.

OH, WAIT, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.

THERE'S A SPIDER RIGHT THERE. WHOO!

YEAH, THERE. WHERE -- OH!

*BLEEP*

GOOD LOOKING OUT. WHOO!

I'M NOT TOO KEEN ON SPIDERS, ESPECIALLY BIG, GNARLY SPIDERS

THAT CAN SERIOUSLY, SERIOUSLY INJURE YOU,

AND THERE'S GOING TO BE A LOT OF THOSE.

STAY FAR AWAY FROM THE SPIDERS.

THERE WE GO. GOOD TEAMWORK.

YEP. THANK YOU.

WHOA.

THIS IS A DEFINITE SPOT WITH POTENTIAL.

IT'S RATHER IDYLLIC, IN FACT.

THIS WOULD BE A GOOD SPOT.

SO I'M THINKING WE HAVE THIS ROCK

BE ONE SIDE OF OUR PLATFORM.

WE RUN A BEAM NEXT TO THIS TREE TO THE OTHER SIDE.

YEP. THAT FEELS PRETTY SOLID.

Kaila: WE'RE TRYING TO BUILD A PLATFORM

TO GET OFF THE GROUND 'CAUSE THERE'S SO MANY BUGS,

SPIDERS AND STUFF, AS WELL AS SNAKES,

TONS OF LITTLE THINGS THAT CAN BITE YOU,

AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY DON'T.

SO GETTING OFF THE GROUND IS DEFINITELY IMPORTANT.

WHOA, THERE'S A SCORPION RIGHT THERE!

I ALMOST STEPPED ON IT, LOOK AT IT,

BECAUSE HE WAS WALKING RIGHT DOWN THE TRAIL.

WHERE? HOLD ON.

HERE, LOOKIT.

HE IS PISSED.

OH, HE'S BIG TOO.

YEAH, THAT'S A BIG ONE.

OOH. OOH.

David: THE BOTTOM LINE IS THE LONGER WE'RE OUT HERE,

THE MORE WE'RE BECOMING AWARE OF THE DANGER

IN SIMPLY WALKING IN LEAVES.

IF YOU'RE THIRSTY, I CAN START TRYING TO MOSEY UP A FIRE.

THAT ACTUALLY WOULD BE AWESOME.

THAT'S GOING TO BE A FUNCTIONAL, FUNCTIONING TINDER BUNDLE.

I HAVE FAITH IN YOU... OH, I APPRECIATE THAT.

...THAT YOU CAN DO IT.

THE FRICTION CREATED

CREATES THIS BLACK DUST, WHICH IS CALLED PUNK.

AND THE BLACK DUST GETS FILTERED INTO THE NOTCH AND OXYGENATED.

AND WHEN THE BLACK DUST HEATS TO A TEMPERATURE OF 600

TO 800 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT,

IT THEN IGNITES INTO A SOLID COAL.

THE COAL GETS TRANSFERED INTO THE BIRD'S NEST.

THE BIRD'S NEST GETS BLOWN TO FLAME,

AND YOU MAKE FIRE.

FIRE!

AND THAT, BOYS AND GIRLS, IS HOW WE MAKE FIRE.

WATER'S ON THE BOIL.

AWESOME KNIFE.

RIGHT?

READY?

David: THERE WE GO.

IS THAT GOOD? YEAH.

WE SHOULD PROBABLY SLEEP BY THE FIRE TONIGHT

SINCE WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE THAT DONE.

WHO SAYS WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE THIS DONE?

I MEAN... SO REALISTICALLY,

WE'RE SPENDING THE NIGHT WITHOUT A SHELTER.

David: I'M FEELING LIKE OUR PACE

IS A LOT SLOWER THAN I WANT IT TO BE.

HOPEFULLY, WE WON'T LIVE TO REGRET

NOT PUSHING THE PACE A LITTLE BIT FASTER.

Kaila: SO WE WOKE UP

BECAUSE WE HEARD AN ANIMAL COMING DOWN THE HILL.

AH!

OH, MY GOD!

Kaila: SO WE WOKE UP

BECAUSE WE HEARD AN ANIMAL COMING DOWN THE HILL.

AH!

DAY 2.

LAST NIGHT, I DIDN'T REALLY GET MUCH SLEEP.

MY BODY TOOK A LITTLE BEATING FROM ALL THE ROCKS.

David: SOME ANIMAL WAS CRUISING AROUND OUR CAMP

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT,

AND IT'S REALLY HARD TO TELL HOW BIG SOMETHING IS.

SO BECAUSE OF THAT, BULLET POINTS FOR TODAY

ARE SHELTER, SHELTER, SHELTER, COLLECT FIREWOOD, AND SHELTER.

Kaila: LOOKS GOOD.

LET'S ASSUME THE POSITION.

PERFECT.

OH, THIS IS SO NICE.

THAT'S WAY BETTER. YES.

THAT IS WAY BETTER, EVEN WITHOUT ANY BEDDING.

WE'RE GOING TO BE BUILDING A FIRE

AGAINST A LARGE ROCK WALL

UNDER OUR SIX-FOOT ELEVATED MANSION,

WHICH IS ALWAYS GREAT TO DO

IN THIS KIND OF JUNGLE-ISH ENVIRONMENT.

BECAUSE LAST NIGHT GOT COLD ENOUGH

TO BE UNCOMFORTABLE COLD,

SO I KEPT ASKING KAILA IF SHE WANTED TO CUDDLE

FOR SOME BODY HEAT, BUT SHE WASN'T INTERESTED.

Kaila: I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS A SURVIVAL SITUATION.

I FEEL SUPER UNCOMFORTABLE CUDDLING A STRANGE MAN

THAT I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT.

I WOULD RATHER BE COLD.

WELL, THE SMOKE IS GETTING TO ME.

YEAH, IT IS REALLY SMOKY.

WE'RE IN OUR AWESOME SHELTER ON THE PLATFORM.

TOMORROW, WE'RE GOING TO FINISH IT.

MY GOAL IS TO SLEEP ALL NIGHT LONG...

LET'S SEE IF THAT HAPPENS. ...SLEEP UNTIL THE SUNRISE.

WOULDN'T THAT BE NICE? YES. THAT WOULD BE AMAZING.

I'M SO TIRED. I'M SURE YOU ARE, TOO.

IT'S SO COLD.

OUR SHELTER IS COLD. YEAH.

I'VE BEEN IN SURVIVAL SITUATIONS

WHERE WE HAD TO CUDDLE WITH EACH OTHER

JUST TO MAKE IT THROUGH THE NIGHT.

I'M NOT REALLY ALL ABOUT SPOONING.

ALL RIGHT. I THINK I'M GOING TO GO REBUILD THE FIRE...

...TURN ON OUR HEATER AGAIN.

YOU ALL RIGHT?

David: BEING ON THIS ELEVATED PLATFORM IS COLD,

AND WE HAVE A DOWN-CANYON BREEZE.

AND I AM CURIOUS WHY SHE DOESN'T LIKE TO CUDDLE,

AND I JUST DON'T WANT TO JUMP INTO TRYING TO PRY

FOR THAT KIND OF INFORMATION.

BUT THIS IS SURVIVAL, MAN.

DAVID JUST FOUND A TICK ON HIM.

THE TICKS ARE OUT OF CONTROL.

I'VE GOT AN INFECTED TICK BITE IN MY LEG --

NOT ONLY MY LEG, BUT MY PENIS.

AND I HAVEN'T HAD ONE SINGLE TICK ON ME

THIS WHOLE ENTIRE TIME.

SO, UH, FOR PLANS, GOALS FOR TODAY...

YEAH. WE NEED TO FINISH THE A-FRAME.

WELL, THE FRONDS...

WILL BE SOME ROOF.

FLOORBOARD.

MAKE SURE YOU'RE STEPPING ON THE SUPPORT BEAMS THERE.

OKAY.

PLEASE, DON'T -- PLEASE, STEP ON THE BEAMS.

I'M REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT THOSE BREAKING.

YOU WANT ME TO STEP ON THEM RIGHT HERE?

THE BEAMS MEAN, LIKE, THE SUPPORT BEAMS.

YEAH, I KNOW WHAT THE BEAMS ARE.

I'M TRYING TO -- YEAH.

I OBVIOUSLY CAN'T STEP ON THAT ONE, SO I'M SAYING,

DO YOU WANT ME TO STEP ON THE EDGE HERE?

YEAH. OKAY.

I WOULD LIKE TO NOT FALL OFF, SO THAT'S ALL.

DUDE, I KEEP GETTING *BLEEP* IN MY EYE.

I KNOW.

THIS SUCKS.

THIS IS JUST TRASH.

THIS IS JUST ALL *BLEEP* UP TOGETHER.

WHAT'S WRONG?

IT'S JUST A WHOLE BUNCH OF *BLEEP*

I THINK WE'RE GETTING THERE.

Kaila: WHAT'S UP, YOU ALL RIGHT?

SURE. JUST FRUSTRATED?

YEP. SOMETHING I DO?

I DON'T REALLY WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT RIGHT NOW.

WE ARE GETTING READY FOR BED.

I ACTUALLY THINK I'M GOING TO SLEEP

ON THE GROUND TONIGHT, UNDERNEATH OUR SHELTER...

BECAUSE THE LAST FEW NIGHTS HAVE BEEN SO COLD,

SO I DON'T MIND SLEEPING ON THE ROCKS TONIGHT.

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT I'M REALLY FEELING

THAT WE'RE NOT WORKING AS A TEAM.

I ASSUMED THAT YOU WERE GOING TO SLEEP DOWN HERE

WITH ME, AS WELL.

LOOK.

I CAN MOVE THIS UP HERE,

AND WE CAN BOTH LAY THIS WAY.

I CAN MOVE THIS BACK. IT'S NOT --

WELL, I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, THOUGH.

I WANT TO SEE.

SO THAT WE'RE BOTH LAYING THIS WAY.

RIGHT, SO THEN ONE OF US ISN'T NEXT TO THE FIRE.

YEAH, I'LL SLEEP FURTHER AWAY FROM THE FIRE.

YOU'LL BE SO COLD. THAT'S WHAT I DID DAY 1.

THAT'S WHAT I DID DAY 1, AND I WAS FINE WITH IT.

NO, YOU HATED IT! YEAH, IT WAS UNCOMFORTABLE,

BUT I WAS THINKING ABOUT YOU BEFORE MYSELF.

I PUT YOU BEFORE MYSELF.

ANY TIME I HAVE WATER,

I MAKE SURE THAT YOU GET THE LAST SIP.

LIKE, I'M ALWAYS THINKING OF YOU,

SO FOR YOU TO SAY THAT I'M SELFISH OR ANYTHING

JUST BLOWS MY MIND

BECAUSE I'VE BEEN THINKING OF YOU SINCE DAY 1.

WE BOTH CAN SLEEP DOWN HERE TOGETHER.

I WOULD MAKE IT POSSIBLE SO THAT WE COULD BOTH LAY DOWN HERE.

THERE'S ROOM DOWN HERE. WE CAN MAKE IT WORK.

IT'S NOT LIKE IT'S NOT POSSIBLE.

I'M NOT AN ASS*BLEEP*

ALL RIGHT.

David: LAST NIGHT, I HAD SOMETHING OF A SPIRITUAL FAILING

WHERE I GOT QUITE UPSET,

AND IT CAME OUT IN THE FORM OF ANGER.

AND IT WAS REALLY BASED ON FEAR OF US NOT BEING A TEAM.

AND THAT'S SOMETHING I'VE BEEN LOOKING AT,

IN TERMS OF MY MEDITATIONS IN THE MORNING,

BUT THERE COULD BE ANY SLEW OF REASONS

WHY SOMEONE IS COMFORTABLE OR NOT COMFORTABLE

WITH VARIOUS LEVELS OF PHYSICAL CONTACT.

SO I DON'T WANT TO PUSH HER.

LOOK AT THAT RIGHT THERE.

YEAH, THAT'S A PRETTY RIPE MANGO.

SPLIT THIS MANGO WITH MY PARTNER AND...

SEE IF THAT BRINGS A SMILE TO HER FACE.

HEY.

DID YOU FIND ANYTHING? YEAH.

MANGO?

Kaila: I THINK EVERY TIME I OPEN UP TO SOMEBODY,

I ALWAYS GET LET DOWN,

AND I THINK HAVE A REALLY BIG WALL PUT UP.

BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, WE KNOW THAT WE HAVE TO

MAKE THIS WORK AND GET ALONG WITH EACH OTHER.

OOH! THANK YOU!

OH, THAT'S AMAZING.

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH RIGHT NOW.

David: IT'S IN MY NATURE

WHEN I START TO GET FRUSTRATED IS

I SEEK TO BLAME SOMEONE WHO'S AROUND ME.

BUT, YOU KNOW, THAT'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS

THAT I'M TRYING TO IMPROVE.

THAT'S AMAZING.

Kaila: OH, I JUST SAW SOME EYES.

David: OVER HERE? YEAH, HERE.

I CAN'T SEE IT. IT WON'T FOCUS.

BUT IT'S RIGHT NEXT TO THAT TREE, TO THE LEFT OF IT.

RIGHT THERE?

OH *BLEEP*

WHAT IS IT? I DON'T KNOW.

IT LOOKED LIKE A VERY, VERY LARGE RAT.

WELL...

WELL, IT'S PROBABLY GONE, WHATEVER IT WAS.

IT'S OKAY.

I THINK IT'S WORTH SETTING UP.

WE HAVEN'T FOUND MUCH PROTEIN.

WE FOUND, ALTHOUGH, SOME CARBS, AND THAT KEEPS US MOVING.

BUT IT'D BE REALLY NICE TO BRING IN SOME MEAT.

I THINK THAT WOULD GIVE KAILA AND I A LOT OF STRENGTH.

A LITTLE BIT OF MEAT ON THE TABLE.

IT'LL BE A GOOD THING.

Kaila: OPOSSUM STEW OR SQUIRREL STEW.

DID YOU HEAR THAT? NUH-UNH.

YOU DIDN'T HEAR THAT? NO, WHAT?

SOMETHING JUST CAME CRASHING DOWN OVER THERE.

IT WAS RIGHT THERE WHERE WE SET UP THE TRAP.

THIS IS KIND OF WHERE WE WANT TO GO.

IT'S JUST THAT WAY.

ALL RIGHT.

WELL, I THINK WE JUST ABOUT MADE IT.

AND THERE'S NOTHING.

UGH, THAT SUCKS.

YOU WANT ME TO CARRY THAT?

CARRY WHAT? THE POT?

UP TO YOU.

Narrator: 10 DAYS INTO THEIR CHALLENGE,

DAVID AND KAILA STILL HAVEN'T HAD ANY PROTEIN.

THEIR TRAPS ARE FALLING SHORT, AND THE WEAKER THEY BECOME,

THE HARDER IT IS TO MUSTER UP THE ENERGY TO HUNT.

OH, HEY!

THERE'S A SNAKE.

David: ON IT.

YEAH, DO IT.

'CAUSE IF HE'S HIDING IN THAT, HE'S GOT TO COME OUT.

YEAH!

GOOD HIT!

YEAH!

OH, THAT DID IT!

THAT LOOKS LIKE A WHIPSNAKE.

TORE HIM UP.

WHERE?

OH, MY GOD.

THAT'S INSANE.

WOW.

YEAH! THAT'S GOING TO BE GREAT.

YEAH.

OH, HERE COMES THE INTESTINES. MMM.

David: HOW DO YOU PLAN ON COOKING THAT SNAKE?

I'M GOING TO KEBAB IT OVER THE FIRE.

SNAKE KEBAB? SNAKE KEBAB.

MMM.

THAT'S REALLY GOOD.

MMM.

YOU OKAY?

FEEL NAUSEOUS? YEAH.

WALK AWAY FROM THE BED, PLEASE.

OH, MY GOD. I DON'T WANT TO GO OVER THERE.

SUCKS.

David: FEEL NAUSEOUS? YEAH.

OH, MY GOD.

WALK AWAY FROM THE BED, PLEASE.

OH *BLEEP* THIS.

Kaila: I GOT WICKED SICK LAST NIGHT.

JUST ALL OF A SUDDEN, I WAS LAYING DOWN,

AND I JUST GOT REALLY NAUSEOUS

AND COULDN'T STOP PUKING FOR LIKE 30 MINUTES.

IT WAS PRETTY BAD.

SWEET.

HOW ARE YOU FEELING?

FEEL A LOT BETTER THAN I DID LAST NIGHT.

David: I DIDN'T SLEEP MUCH LAST NIGHT.

APPARENTLY, SNAKE DOES NOT AGREE MUCH WITH KAILA --

VOMITING AND DIARRHEA.

THANKS FOR LOOKING OUT FOR ME LAST NIGHT.

YEAH.

YOU'RE NOT SO BAD.

OH, MY PLEASURE.

Kaila: THE BUGS ARE HAVING A FIELD DAY ON ALL OF MY WOUNDS.

David: LOOK AT THIS BAD BOY.

Narrator: KAILA AND DAVID HAVE HAD ONLY VERY LIMITED PROTEIN,

SO THEIR BODIES ARE STRUGGLING TO HEAL AND FIGHT OFF INFECTION.

BY DAY 13, DAVID'S TICK BITE HAS BECOME BADLY INFECTED.

A MEDIC HAS BEEN CALLED IN TO CLEAN THE WOUND.

WITHOUT TREATMENT, DAVID RISKS DEVELOPING SEPSIS,

A LIFE-THREATENING CONDITION

WHERE BACTERIA POISONS THE BLOOD SUPPLY.

David: OH!

WOW.

GOD, THERE'S SO MUCH.

LET'S GET ALL THE REST OF THAT OUT THERE.

THAT WAS TERRIBLE.

OH, THERE'S MORE, YEAH.

OH, MY GOD!

OW.

OH, IT'S WAY DEEP.

David: IT'S A CHALLENGE TO KEEP THIS CLEAN,

NOT ONLY FROM WATER, BUT JUST ALL THE DIRT,

AND SO, I THINK IT'S A REAL STRONG POSSIBILITY

THAT IT COULD GET RE-INFECTED

AND I MAY HAVE TO GO THROUGH ALL THIS AGAIN.

Narrator: OVER THE NEXT FOUR DAYS,

KAILA AND DAVID HUNKER DOWN AT CAMP

CONSUMING WILD EDIBLES AND TRYING TO HEAL THEIR WOUNDS.

THEY NEED TO CONSERVE THEIR ENERGY

BEFORE THEY SET OUT FOR THEIR GRUELING EXTRACTION.

BEING OUT HERE NOW FOR 2 1/2 WEEKS

AND... MISSING THE PEOPLE BACK HOME,

NOT BEING ABLE TO JUST TOUCH BASE

AND SAY ANYTHING AND TELL THEM I LOVE THEM IS CHALLENGING.

AND TO DEAL WITH THIS LEG WOUND AND THE STARVATION

AND THE SLEEPLESS NIGHTS ON TOP OF IT.

IT'S JUST BEEN A CHALLENGE.

Kaila: I MISS MY DAUGHTER,

AND I MISS MY MOM AND DAD A LOT, TOO.

RIGHT NOW, I'M DEFINITELY MISSING THEM LIKE CRAZY,

AND I AM COUNTING DOWN THE DAYS.

DAVID AND I WOKE UP, AND WE WENT AND DID SOME YOGA.

I'VE PERSONALLY NEVER DONE IT BEFORE,

BUT HE INVITED ME TO DO IT WITH HIM.

AND WE'VE HAD A LOT OF TIME OUT HERE BY OURSELVES

TO TALK AND REALLY OPEN UP TO EACH OTHER,

AND I DON'T REALLY OPEN UP TO PEOPLE IN GENERAL.

I THINK THERE'S DEFINITELY A POSSIBILITY

THAT I'LL BE MORE WILLING TO OPEN UP

TO PEOPLE AFTER THIS EXPERIENCE.

SO THIS IS ALL THE STUFF WE NEED TO TAKE.

YEP.

David: TOMORROW IS EXTRACTION DAY,

BUT BECAUSE WE'RE HIKING OUT OF A 5,000-ACRE JUNGLE,

WE'RE STARTING TODAY, ON DAY 20.

AND THE LEG'S BEEN KIND OF A MINOR NUISANCE ALL THE TIME,

SO HOPEFULLY IT WONT SLOW ME UP OR HINDER ME ON EXTRACTION.

I THINK AFTER WE GET PAST THIS POINT,

IT'S GOING TO BE PRETTY FLAT.

Narrator: DAVID AND KAILA'S FIRST OBSTACLE

IS THE STEEP CLIFF FACE OF QUEBRADA VALENCIA,

A ROCKY WATERFALL

THAT WILL BRING THEM TO THE JUNGLE FLOOR.

IF THEY MAKE IT TO THE BOTTOM,

THEY'LL SET UP CAMP FOR THE NIGHT

AND ON THE FINAL DAY, AVOIDING THE MANY CAIMAN,

RAFT FIVE MILES DOWN THE MAGDALENA RIVER

TO THEIR EXTRACTION POINT.

THESE ROCKS ARE SO SKETCHY.

YEAH, THEY ARE. THEY'RE SLIPPERY.

ONE SLIP, AND WE'RE GOING DOWN A LONG DUN-DUN DUN-DUN.

YEAH, EXACTLY.

OUCH.

THE LONG HIKE TO THE JUNGLE FLOOR

IS STEEP, JAGGED, AND SLIPPERY,

AND DAVID AND KAILA'S PHYSICAL COORDINATION

HAS BEEN DRASTICALLY IMPAIRED BY 20 DAYS OF HUNGER.

CONCENTRATION IS CRITICAL.

THIS IS AMAZING.

LOOK BACK. LOOK WHAT WE CAME DOWN.

HOLY CRAP.

THAT'S INSANE.

OH, LOOK, BANANAS!

I'M KIND OF NERVOUS

ABOUT RUNNING INTO SOME BANANA SPIDERS.

YEAH, I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW HOW MANY BANANA SPIDERS

ARE IN HERE RIGHT NOW.

THE WANDERING SPIDERS OF COLOMBIA,

KNOWN ALSO AS BANANA SPIDERS,

WALK THE JUNGLE FLOOR AT NIGHT LOOKING FOR PREY.

THEY'RE FAST, AND THE VENOM

CAN NOT ONLY ASPHYXIATE THEIR VICTIMS,

IT CAN CAUSE LOSS OF MUSCLE CONTROL AND PARALYSIS.

I THINK I SEE THE RIVER.

YEAH?

IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE WE CAN GO ANY FURTHER ON FOOT.

LOOK'S LIKE WE'RE TAKING TO THE WATER AT THIS POINT.

ALL RIGHT, KAILA, WHAT SHOULD WE DO FIRST?

WHAT'S OUR PRIORITY?

SO OBVIOUSLY, GETTING THE RAFT DONE

IS TOP PRIORITY, I THINK.

DO YOU WANT TO START CUTTING DOWN SOME BANANA TREES?

YEP.

IT WAS QUITE A LONG WALK.

WE FOUND A CAMP THAT WE'RE GOING TO SETTLE OUT FOR TONIGHT

AND START BUILDING OUR RAFT

AND THEN TOMORROW MORNING HEAD OUT.

WE DECIDED TO USE SOME BANANA TREES

BECAUSE THEY ACTUALLY FLOAT A LOT BETTER THAN BAMBOO,

AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO JUST TIE A BUNCH OF ROPE TOGETHER

AND TIE THEM OFF.

I THINK KEEPING IT SIMPLE IS REALLY THE BEST WAY TO GO.

WE SHOULD BE DONE.

THEN WE GET TO RELAX ON OUR LAST NIGHT HERE.

I KNOW. OUR LAST NIGHT. AWW.

OH.

WITH ALL THE BANANA SPIDERS.

BANANA SPIDERS! YAY!

David: WE WANTED TO PUT SOME TIME INTO PREPPING OUR CAMP,

ESPECIALLY WITH THE BANANA SPIDERS IN THE AREA.

WE REALLY WANT TO CLEAR THE GROUND.

HEY, THERE'S A BABY TARANTULA OVER HERE.

OH, IT BETTER NOT BE A *BLEEP* BANANA SPIDER.

THERE HE IS.

THAT IS A BANANA SPIDER.

YEAH, I FEEL LIKE HE'S REALLY FAST.

NOT THAT FAST! OH.

MAYBE THAT FAST.

NOT THAT FAST.

YOU GET HIM?

I DON'T KNOW. I GOT SOMETHING.

WE DON'T LIKE IT HERE, AND WE'RE NOT SLEEPING.

Kaila: I NOTICED SO MANY HUGE SPIDERS.

SUPER POISONOUS SPIDERS.

THEY'RE EVERYWHERE.

OH!

WHAT THE *BLEEP* WAS THAT?

DAMN IT. OH *BLEEP* THAT'S...

Narrator: 20 DAYS AGO,

DAVID AND KAILA WERE DROPPED INTO QUEBRADA VALENCIA,

A 5,000-ACRE JUNGLE IN NORTHERN COLOMBIA,

WITH PRIMITIVE SURVIVAL RATINGS OF 7.5 AND 6.4.

DESPITE SOME INITIAL CLASHING, THE TWO WERE ABLE

TO COME TOGETHER AS A HIGHLY EFFECTIVE TEAM.

YEAH! THAT'S GOING TO BE GREAT.

DAVID SUFFERED WITH AN INFECTED TICK BITE...

...AND KAILA EVENTUALLY RECOVERED FROM A BAD REACTION

TO SNAKE MEAT.

NOW THE TEAM IS HALFWAY THROUGH AN ARDUOUS TWO-DAY EXTRACTION.

IF THEY CAN MAKE IT TO THEIR RESCUE POINT,

THEIR PSRs WILL BE REEVALUATED.

OH, DAMN IT!

OH!

WHAT THE *BLEEP* WAS THAT?

*BLEEP* ARE YOU OKAY?

DAMN IT. OH.

SOMETHING THAT JUST *BLEEP* TOOK ME OUT.

THAT'S WHAT JUST HIT YOU IN THE FACE.

THAT JUST CAME OUT OF NOWHERE.

OH! OH, THAT'S HARD, TOO.

YEAH. WASN'T EXPECTING THAT.

David: IT FEELS LIKE SOMEONE JUST CAME OUT OF NOWHERE

AND PUNCHED ME RIGHT IN THE EYE.

IT HIT YOU RIGHT IN THE EYE?

YEAH.

TERRIBLE.

TODAY IS EXTRACTION DAY!

PUTTING THE WARRIOR PAINT ON.

WHOO-HOO!

ONE, TWO, THREE.

LIFT UP, LIFT, LIFT, LIFT.

THIS IS GOING TO BE CHALLENGING.

THIS IS GOING TO BE CHALLENGING. YEAH.

THERE WE GO. OH, BOY.

David: WHEN I THINK ABOUT IT, I'M A LITTLE BIT NERVOUS.

WE ARE STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE,

AND OUR RAFT IS SO SKETCHY.

PADDLING THROUGH THE SWAMP,

SUBMERGED CAIMAN PROTECTING THEIR YOUNG.

YOU GOT TO STILL BE ON GUARD

BECAUSE THIS GAME ISN'T OVER YET.

Kaila: THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS THAT CAN KILL YOU OUT HERE,

AND IT'S VERY, VERY DANGEROUS.

SO I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT NOT TO FREAK OUT OR ANYTHING

BECAUSE IT'S JUST GOING TO MAKE THE SITUATION WORSE.

THERE ARE SO MANY WATER SPIDERS ON MY OPEN WOUNDS.

I CAN SMELL THE OCEAN.

David: I SMELL FREEDOM. WHOO-HOO!

WE GOT THIS.

OH, MY GOODNESS.

AND WE MADE IT! AH! WE DID IT!

WHOO-HOO! THERE'S THE BEACH!

YES!

WHOO! WE DID IT!

I SURVIVED IN THE COLOMBIAN JUNGLE NAKED FOR 21 DAYS

AND DEFINITELY SUFFER. WHOO-HOO!

AND I LEARNED SO MUCH ABOUT MYSELF.

I'LL TRY TO, WHEN I LEAVE HERE,

HAVE A LITTLE MORE FAITH IN PEOPLE

AND LET THOSE WALLS DOWN A LITTLE BIT.

I'M JUST SO HAPPY.

THIS HAS BEEN AN INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE.

I'LL HAVE TONS OF MEMORIES TO SHARE WITH MY DAUGHTER.

THIS IS DEFINITELY LIFE-CHANGING.

David: I CAME IN TRYING TO MAKE THIS

AN EXPERIENCE OF GROWTH AND PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT.

AH! AND I'VE REALLY GOT

A WHOLE NEW LEVEL OF GRATITUDE

AND APPRECIATION IN THE WILDERNESS

AND HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO MY HEALING AND MY HEALTH...

WE'RE OVER HERE!

...AND I'M SO HAPPY TO BE COMPLETED AND DONE.

LET'S GET OUT OF HERE!

READY?

MY DAD -- HE CAN'T WALK ANYMORE,

BUT RIGHT UP TO THE TIME OF HIS INJURY,

WE WERE STILL CLIMBING MOUNTAINS AND GOING BACKPACKING.

I THINK HE'S JUST REALLY PROUD OF ME,

AND I'M PROUD OF HIM.

THIS EXPERIENCE WAS BRUTAL,

BUT WE NOT ONLY SURVIVED, WE ROCKED.

YAY! YEAH!

WHOO-HOO!

YEAH! WHOO-HOO!

Narrator: OVER THE COURSE OF 21 CHALLENGING DAYS

IN THE COLOMBIAN JUNGLE, DAVID CONSUMED ENOUGH PROTEIN

TO KEEP HIS ENERGY LEVELS HIGH,

BUT HIS NEAR-CONSTANT ACTIVITY AND MORNING YOGA SESSIONS

STILL ENSURED A 16 POUND WEIGHT-LOSS.

AFTER AN EARLY FIGHT ABOUT SHARING BODY HEAT...

...DAVID WAS ABLE TO CONTROL HIS ANGER

AND WORK WITH HIS PARTNER EXTREMELY WELL,

DISPLAYING A WIDE ARRAY

OF SURVIVAL SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE.

AND THAT IS HOW WE MAKE FIRE.

Narrator: AS A RESULT, HIS PSR HAS RISEN FROM A 7.5 TO AN 8.1.

DURING HER 3 WEEKS IN COLOMBIA, KAILA LOST A TOTAL OF 13 POUNDS.

ALTHOUGH SHE HAD NEVER BEEN TO A JUNGLE

OR EVEN OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES,

KAILA PROVED HERSELF ADAPTABLE TO THE ENVIRONMENT

AND A VALUABLE TEAMMATE TO HER PARTNER.

YEAH! THAT'S GOING TO BE GREAT.

HER PSR INCREASES FROM A 6.4 TO A 7.4.

THE TICKS AND SPIDERS OF COLOMBIA

WANTED TO TAKE THEM OUT.

David: OH, MY GOD.

BUT THESE TWO SURVIVALISTS PROVED THEIR WORTH

AND LIVED TO TELL ABOUT IT.

"NAKED AND AFRAID."

WE MADE IT! WHOO! WE DID IT!

David: ONE LAST LITTLE GIFT FROM MY LAST NIGHT IN COLOMBIA,

SOMETHING BIT OR STUNG ME IN THERE.

A LITTLE PERSPECTIVE.

BUT THE BEST THING IS -- YOU READY? YOU READY?

AFTER TWO LONG DAYS OF FLYING HOME,

I FINALLY JUST LANDED,

AND I AM HEADING DOWN TO BAGGAGE CLAIM RIGHT NOW

TO GO SEE MY LITTLE GIRL! AH!

Kaila: HI, GUYS!

CONGRATULATIONS.

Woman: OH!

I MADE THAT JUST FOR YOU.
