THERE'S NO DENYING HOW CRUCIAL THIS IS.

NICE. NICE. NICE.

THE AMOUNT OF EFFORT THAT SHE'S PUTTING INTO THE RAFT

IS A VERY REDEEMING QUALITY.

OH, LOOK HOW NICE THAT FLOATS.

YOU KNOW, I'M KIND OF COMING UP ON THE END OF MY ENERGY,

WHEREAS SHE'S BEEN SORT OF CONSERVING HERS.

WHOO!

Makani: DEFINITELY FEELS GOOD TO PULL MY WEIGHT.

SO FAR, SO GOOD.

Makani: YOU READY?

♪♪

SWEET, DUDE.

WE BUILT A RAFT.

DUDE, THAT WAS BOSS.

MAKANI AND I GOT OFF TO A BIT OF A ROUGH START,

BUT I'M GLAD THAT SHE AND I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CONNECT

IN THE WAY THAT WE HAVE OVER THE COURSE OF THESE SEVERAL DAYS.

YOU'RE A VEGAN, AND I'M A TAXIDERMIST.

I KNOW.

LIKE, HOW MUCH DIFFERENT COULD YOU GET?

♪♪

BYE, SHELTER.BYE, SHELTER.

YOU SERVED US WELL.

THIS IS NOT AN EASY EXTRACTION.

WE HAVE TO DO IT ON THE RIVER,

AND THAT'S GOING TO BE A CHALLENGE.

ALL RIGHT. LET'S DO THIS.

♪♪

Narrator: TO MAKE IT TO THEIR EXTRACTION POINT,

MAKANI AND SARAH MUST TRAVEL THREE MILES THROUGH RAPIDS

AND STRONG CURRENTS, ALL WHILE AVOIDING THE PIRANHA

AND BLACK CAIMAN IN THE RIVER'S MURKY DEPTHS.

WE CAN'T REALLY SEE ANYTHING BENEATH US, SO...

I KNOW. IT MAKES ME A LITTLE NERVOUS.

♪♪

I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S A ROCK OR A LOG OR CAIMAN.

♪♪

Makani: WATCH OUT FOR THIS PART.

THERE'S A TREE.

♪♪

HOLD ON.

♪♪

ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT.

HERE COME SOME RAPIDS.

OH, MY GOD.

THIS IS NOT GOOD. THIS IS NOT GOOD.

HANG ON.

♪♪

LET IT SPIN. LET IT SPIN.

♪♪

OKAY.

HERE'S SOME MORE RAPIDS UP HERE.

GET READY.

HOLD ON. STRAIGHTEN OUT.

STRAIGHTEN OUT.

BACK DOWN THERE, THIS WAY.

HOLD ON. HOLD ON.

*BLEEP* AH! HEY. HEY!

*BLEEP* YOU GOOD? YOU GOOD?

WE'RE JUST GOING TO HAVE TO LET IT TURN.

LET IT SPIN. LET IT SPIN.

HEY! HEY!

YOU GOOD?

OKAY.

YOU GOOD?

OKAY.

IS THAT OUR BOAT? THERE'S THE BOAT!

OH, MY GOD.

WHOO!

WHOO!

WHOO! WHOO-HOO!

OH.

OH, THAT IS THE MOST MAGICAL BOAT

I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE.

HEY.

I CANNOT BELIEVE IT.

♪♪

WHOO! OKAY.

WHOO!ALL RIGHT.

GOOD? YEAH.

WE DID IT!

WE DID IT!

OH, MY GOD. YEAH.

OH, MAKANI. YES!

WE DID IT. I KNOW.

Makani: MY BIGGEST LESSON OUT HERE IS MY ABILITY TO GET ALONG

WITH SOMEBODY WHO IS MORE OR LESS MY OPPOSITE.

Sarah: I THINK THE BIGGEST LESSON THAT I'VE LEARNED

IS ACTUALLY ONE FROM MAKANI.

WHAT WORKS FOR ONE PERSON ISN'T NECESSARILY

GOING TO BE WHAT'S BEST FOR SOMEBODY ELSE,

AND WE CAN MAKE THAT WORK IN A PARTNERSHIP.

Narrator: AFTER SURVIVING 21 DAYS NAKED

IN THE AMAZONIAN JUNGLES OF ECUADOR,

SARAH LOST A TOTAL OF 30 POUNDS, AND MAKANI LOST 10 POUNDS.

THEIR PSRS RISE TO 7.1 AND 7.0.

YEAH!*BLEEP* ROCKED IT, DUDE.

THE HUGE GUY COULDN'T MAKE IT BUT FOUR DAYS?

WE DID IT. YEAH.

I'M REALLY, REALLY PROUD OF MAKANI AND I

FOR BEING THE FIRST WOMAN DUO TO MAKE THIS KIND OF CHALLENGE.

AH! WHOO, WHOO!
