Original subtitles

[Chris] Nerves are absolutely high right now.

This redemption, I cannot tell you how much

I have been craving it for the past three years.

[Danny] Here I am in South Africa for my redemption.

I really wanna prove to myself I can do this.

There is no power in this beautiful continent

that can stop me from making it to day 21 this time.

[Anthony] Being here now,

I'd be lying if I said the nerves weren't there a little bit too,

the apprehension.

The minute that these jeans hit the floor, it's redemption time.

I'm back! I'm back! I'm back, I'm back, I'm back!

[Anthony] As far as you can see, it's wild.

It's a little intimidating.

There's zebras!

Welcome to Africa.

[Andrew] I can hear my mom's voice.

Oh, my God, I can't believe we're getting naked out there in Africa again.

[Danny] This is Africa

and if you make this a joke it will take you out.

[narrator] In the remote region of Limpopo, South Africa,

four survivalists return to Naked and Afraid

to redeem their past failures.

But this time, they'll begin the challenge in teams of two

as they fight vicious terrain, extreme temperatures

and bloodthirsty predators

before joining forces on day 11

for an all-out battle for redemption.

Here we go.

Whoo-hoo!

Let's get wild!

[Chris] And last but not least.

All right, it's time to meet my partner.

This environment is super thick.

However, feet still feel good. Can't complain too much.

This sand is a lot more different than the last challenge I was on.

Last time, I was in Mexico.

I ended up getting a heat blister on the insertion height.

That blister pad just tore off the bottom of that foot.

My feet are just killing me.

I was rendered useless

by being unable to put any pressure down on my left foot...

[exhaling]

This is brutal.

I'm 100% sure that this is the point

where my journey ends and I tap out.

...and eventually left the challenge on day eight.

This time, my foot prep is a lot better.

I've been walking around barefoot in the cold winters of Canada

as well as the hot, dry summers

in preparation for this moment right here.

I've been a fighter my entire life,

so tapping out on my last challenge

is something that I regret immensely.

The only way I'm coming out of this location

is completing the 21 or on a medical stretcher.

[narrator] Chris has a strong primitive skill set,

but another injury could threaten his second challenge.

Chris begins with a primitive survival rating, or PSR, of 5.6.

The grass is so tall.

Makes me nervous of snakes

and other creepy crawlies like ticks.

It was the tiniest of things, the little bugs,

that took us out last time.

[groans] This tick bite is killing me.

[medic] Your skin has broken down.

[screams] Ow! Ow!

[screams]

[medic] I think we need to medically tap you.

[Andrew] After I did this challenge,

everyone in my life - friends, family, people I meet -

they always say, "Oh, did you finish? Did you complete it?"

And every single time, I have to say no

and I hate that.

So this is my chance to fix that.

[narrator] Andrew has experience in South Africa,

But even the smallest threats could sabotage him yet again.

Andrew sets out with a PSR of 6.4.

Hey.

Hi.

- You're not a woman. - No. Neither are you!

- You're a Canadian! - How are you doing?

- What's going on? - Good. Chris.

I recognize him. I...

Like, I know this guy from his challenge.

From what I recall on his challenge, he's a really nice guy.

- You're out here for redemption. - I am!

- And I think you are too. - Me... I am. I am.

Wow, this is nuts.

- This is crazy. - Yeah.

- I've been in this area before, so this is... - Have you?

- My last challenge was not too far away... - [Chris] No?

...so I have a little bit... A little bit of experience I hope will help us.

That is outstanding 'cause I don't.

I was in the deserts of Northern Mexico my last challenge.

- [Andrew] Very different. Very different. - Very different.

But I wanna make sure that you and I are in that same place.

Like, it doesn't matter, we're finishing this.

- No more "What ifs", you know? - I completely agree.

- Hell, yeah. We got this. - Yeah, absolutely.

Definitely not what I was expecting.

Never seen a male-male dual redemption.

This is gonna be one hell of an experience.

- Okay. - Boma buddies.

- Yeah! - Yeah, let's go.

- I think I see our bags up over there. - Oh, yeah.

- Shall we have a look? Let's go. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Well, that was kind of a surprise. I, uh...

I... Just, my brain thought a woman and it's definitely not.

The good thing about him having done a challenge before like me...

He's not a newbie who has no idea how hard this actually gets.

I hope that we can quickly become brothers out here

and make sure that we fight it out to the very end.

- Good to get a bag again. - It is.

[narrator] Each teammate brought a personal survival item.

Andrew has a bow and arrow set,

while Chris brought a large knife.

They've also been given a fire starter

and a pot to purify water.

[Chris] I have the map.

- All right. - Oh, man.

This is us. Look at this river.

[Chris] That is a fantastic score

- and if we follow the water... - Whoa.

- ...we'll be okay. - Yeah.

[Chris] Lead the way.

You've been here before. I haven't.

Oh, that's dangerous.

Well, looks like this is my stop.

Here we go!

Welcome to the savanna.

Here I go getting naked again. [exhales]

Okay, let's do this.

[Anthony] There's definitely a lot of thorns in Africa,

that's for sure. Whoo!

[grunts]

Things poking you in all sorts of places you shouldn't be poked.

I did the challenge, my first time, in Brazil.

Overworking myself in such a short period of time

is what led to my medical tap-out.

[Suzanne] Your back is directly in the sun.

[Anthony] I had Suzanne as my partner.

[strains] Yeah, that's not gonna happen.

That is not gonna happen.

[Anthony] If we'd been able to work more as a team,

I would've worked less.

- [Anthony groaning] - [Suzanne] Wow.

[Anthony shrieking]

[medic speaking]

[Anthony] They told me that I had sweated out

all of the essential minerals, electrolytes,

and had to take me out.

I learned that if you get a partner that you can't work with,

that you're not on the same page,

you're destined to fail.

I'm not a lazy man approach, so I don't want a partner

that wants to sit down on their asses and do nothing.

[narrator] Anthony has a vigorous mindset,

but pushing himself too hard too fast

could lead to another downfall.

Anthony has been given a PSR of 5.8.

[Danny] So, my challenge was brutally cold.

8,000-foot elevation way up in the Rocky Mountains.

My partner was tapped on day two.

And about day eight or nine,

a huge storm front rolled in.

I'm miserable.

When the medic tapped me, When the medic tapped me,

I was working on stage two hypothermia.

[medic] This is it. This is the end of the road for this challenge.

[shouts] I tried so hard!

I do feel like I got a bit robbed of my opportunity in my last challenge.

I've been putting a lot of practice into my fire-building skills.

I'm ready to do this challenge again and I'm not quitting.

[narrator] Danny has gained valuable experience since his last challenge,

but he has never been tested by the endless dangers of South Africa.

Danny begins with a PSR of 7.0.

Yoo-hoo!

- How you doing? - [chuckles]

I'm good. I'm a little surprised.

How you doing? I'm Danny.

Danny, I'm Anthony.

- Anthony, pleasure to meet you. - Nice to meet you.

[chuckles] It starts off odd right away.

Like, [groans].

So, this is the first time I've been, uh,

really hanging out naked in front of another guy.

You know, like, what do you even say?

So, um...

Yeah, um...

Welcome to Africa.

Yeah, no kidding, right?

And, well,

I was expecting a girl.

[Danny] Um, I ended up with a dude

which, you know... That's great.

Works for me.

I think having a little extra muscle on the team will be a good thing.

Is this your first time, or...

- No, second challenge. - Okay, yeah, me too.

I'm here for redemption.

- Yeah, same thing. - [Danny] Awesome.

- All right, so we got a stake in this. I like it. - [Anthony] Yeah, absolutely.

I got your back if you got mine.

We'll make sure we get through this.

Hell, yeah, brother, let's do this [bleep].

All right, man. Let's check out the bags.

Yeah, let's see what we've got.

[narrator] For their personal survival items,

Danny brought along a primitive fishing kit,

while Anthony has a half-handled axe.

They have also been given a fire starter and water pot.

[Anthony] All right, so, we're about here.

We got a long hike trek to the water.

So we wanna head west-southwest.

We're gonna have to hustle 'cause we've got a shelter to build

and a lot of firewood to collect

- for these long nights, man. - [Danny] Oh, yes, we do.

- Let's do this thing. - All right.

- [Andrew] It's gotten really, really hot. - [Chris] It has.

[Andrew] The sweat is starting to pour.

You can tell a lot times of the year,

- this whole thing's underwater. - Yeah.

You can actually tell it's the dry season out here right now.

[Andrew] Yeah.

Is that what I think it is up over there?

[Andrew] That's some big poop.

Oh, it's... That's still wet.

Just looking at this and the size and kind of where we are,

I'm thinking this is elephant.

[Andrew] Oh!

Yeah, they kill a lot of people out here,

so we gotta keep our head on a swivel.

[Andrew] Well, it makes me wonder...

This river's so dry. Where are they now?

Probably the same place we're going.

Yeah. All gonna fight for the same water.

- Yeah. - Doh!

[narrator] Chris and Andrew are trekking three and a half miles north

where the water sources are populated by hyenas,

spitting cobras and six-ton elephants

which can crush their enemies under monstrous feet

or gore them with piercing tusks.

I'm seeing a lot of rocks.

It is water right there.

[Andrew] That's a lot of water!

Whoo!

This is what we need for everything.

I don't know what's in this water,

but it could be crocodile.

But if we go up just a little bit,

Somewhere where the water's still accessible.

[Chris] What about right here?

It already has a lot of real good protection here

with the trees, so...

[Andrew] And thorns. Good thorns here.

[Chris] And thorns everywhere.

[Andrew] Well, let's get to work.

- All right. - Right, here we go.

We're gonna build a boma out here,

which is basically just a big corral.

Big walls of thorn trees

'cause a lot of the big predators, the big cats,

They are very sensitive on their nose and their whiskers.

They can't push their faces through that thorn

to eat us.

[Chris] I do not miss the feel of things with spikes running into my skin.

Nothing like a little blood to get us ready for all this.

I'm getting the wild man out of me!

[grunts]

It's coming together real nice.

[Andrew] Home sweet boma.

That sun's brutal.

[Danny] Yeah, even in the winter.

[Anthony] Yeah, I'm a pasty Irishman.

Me and the sun are not necessarily friends.

The sun is what led to my tap out.

I sweated out all of the minerals that you have in your body.

Zinc, iron, magnesium. All gone.

That's never gonna happen again.

Man, we've been walking for a while.

Hopefully, end is near.

[narrator] Danny and Anthony have been trekking

three and a half miles south over piercing terrain

to the nearest water source.

The dense bush hides lions and hippos.

Although both charge at high speeds and have razor-sharp teeth,

hippos actually kill over 20 times more people than lions,

making them the deadliest large land animal on the planet.

[Anthony] Look at this.

- I think that's our water. - Whoa!

I love seeing water,

but I know there's also gonna be a lot of animals coming down

- just as excited as we are, so... - [Danny] Yeah.

I don't care to hang out with a hippo.

[Danny] Yeah, we should be on the downwind side of this pond

where we make our shelter, I think.

[Anthony] We've got a clearing right here.

Let's choose this.

This is where I can see it happening.

We got a natural barrier there.

So we close off the other side and we'll be all right.

All right, well, let's get started, man.

- Here we go. - Cool.

[bleep]

[Anthony] Danny?

I see a snake

headed towards the bush.

Run into a puff adder.

Those are pretty dangerous snakes.

One of those gets hold of you and that's end of challenge.

Point your sticks right at it.

You got him. I see his...

Hold on.

You see him? His head's facing me. It's right here.

Straight down.

All right, I'm gonna cut back behind the gland.

[Anthony grunting]

Straight down.

All right, I'm gonna cut back behind the gland.

I got him.

[Anthony grunting]

Here we go.

[exhales]

He's a small one, but we got something.

Yeah.

It's not much, but here you go.

It's beautiful.

Yeah.

[Danny] You're nice and stinky.

Catfish love that stuff.

[Anthony] It's our best chances of getting something big.

If I can triple my meat just by using it as fish bait,

that's the route I'm gonna do.

[Anthony] Okay.

We've gotta get a shelter built.

Daylight's going fast.

Two, one.

[Danny] We're doing it.

[Anthony] Two. Yeah. One.

[Danny] This is a totally different team experience from my last challenge.

[Anthony] I was worried that I would get

another partner that felt like oil in water,

but we're gonna be able to get along

and, uh, work together.

And that type of teamwork breeds success.

- [Danny] Whoa! - Got you.

Well, that's one hell of a door.

[Anthony] Yeah, they're not getting through that.

All right, let's get a fire going.

[Danny] I was tapped out for hypothermia due to the extreme cold.

The nights are long.

Make it cold and that could be absolutely devastating.

Big fire at night to keep the animals away,

keep the cold away, is gonna be key.

Oh, there we go.

There's the magic.

Way to go, Danny. The king of fire.

We got our boma. We got our fire.

- We got our water. - Nice.

Day one, baby.

[Chris] We have fire.

We got water that we just collected.

We have our boma somewhat set.

Not bad for the first day.

[Andrew] Mmm.

I'd forgotten how amazing dirt, gritty water is.

- [Andrew retches] - [Chris] Let's see how gross that is.

- This should be a candle-free house. - [Chris] Yes.

Mmm, is that... Is that boiling dirt water?

- [Chris] Is that African sweat water? - That's my favorite.

- I know, I know. That's why I got it. - [Chris] Yeah.

[Andrew] I would like for you to describe to me how that feels.

[spits] It actually isn't all that bad.

- [Andrew laughing] - [Chris spitting]

In vineyard talk, it has legs.

[Andrew laughing]

It's really neat that both Chris and I.

It's really neat that both Chris and I

are reaching for this kind of... The same goal,

this 21-day redemption,

'cause we both know what it feels like to come short.

And so I think that motivates us to work together and...

I mean, we're just cutting up, laughing a lot.

And when you have cuts all over your body and you're bleeding,

that humor is an incredible survival tool.

Day one always scares me the most

and it's almost over...

- [Chris] It is. - ...so that feels good.

I agree. I agree.

- We just gotta keep up this momentum... - [Andrew] Yeah.

...'cause we know that, if we don't,

- It goes downhill real quick. - [Andrew] Yeah.

[hyenas calling]

[Danny] First night's starting off warm.

Could be worse.

The wind isn't terrible yet, so all in all...

[hippos grunting]

Very much a live riverbed.

Yeah, thanks for making that door.

[hyenas calling]

[elephant trumpeting]

We've laid down for two minutes,

- two minutes. - [elephant trumpets]

This elephant, right,

- 30 yards, probably, that way... - Yeah.

...started losing their minds.

We're gonna get eaten.

We are gonna get trampled.

- That is what we're looking at... - On night one.

...on night one.

I think... Buddy, are we gonna get much sleep?

[Andrew] Um, I don't think so.

You can probably hear that there's a giant monster right there.

I can't disagree with him.

Day two!

[Chris] We didn't sleep very much.

However, we also didn't get trampled by elephants last night,

so that is a huge victory.

We heard them grunting, we heard them splashing

and we heard them moving about.

They were no more than, probably, 100 yards from us.

No one gets into this house.

[Chris] Today's goal is we're gonna reinforce our boma,

add more thorns, increase the height

to help keep us safe and protected.

I feel like a home renovation show.

This is Property Brothers.

Long-gone turtle shell.

Hey, Andrew.

Got some decorations.

Oh, no way! [gasps]

That is rad.

- Got a turtle shell. Long gone. - Cool!

Makes me feel like, like, a nine-year-old kid who,

when you're out here and you find, like, a cool tortoise shell...

And you better believe we're gonna make a little outfit out of that.

[Anthony] We're gonna need to see if we can catch some fish.

[Danny] Plus, it might feel good to get my feet wet.

- Yeah. - It's warm out today.

I wanna check out this riverbank

and come up with a solid plan.

[Danny] I just saw three or four fish jump up.

In the last minute alone.

Very encouraging.

Some nice, tasty chunks of puff adder meat.

Nice and stinky for them catfish.

Just how they like it.

Here we go.

My last challenge was drastically different from this one.

The nights were much, much colder

and there was absolutely no fishing available there

like there is here, so...

Try out my handline. Hopefully, catch some fish.

I wanna make sure that sinks to the bottom.

Catfish are the bottom-feeders out here.

Drag it back.

[Anthony] I think I saw a turtle.

So, directly across.

There's a hump out of the water.

That's the only thing I can think of

that would submerge looking like a rock.

Maybe we could catch a turtle.

Oh, [bleep].

That's a goddamn hippo.

Oh, [bleep].

So monstrous.

At first, from a distance,

I literally thought that was, like, an island, like land,

that it was just a big mud pile.

Oh, [bleep]. There's two [bleep] hippos.

Oh...

[Danny] Maybe the bigger fish are a little bit further in.

That would make sense.

[Anthony] Once they go down in the water,

you have no [bleep] clue

where they're at or where they're gonna come up.

Then one could pop up over here.

I have no idea.

It's that real and it's right there in front of me.

Oh! Oh, oh, oh!

Danny!

Oh, [bleep]. Oh, [bleep]

There's two [bleep] hippos.

[hippo roars]

Danny!

[Danny] Slime. Look at that.

[Anthony] Danny!

Danny!

[Danny] Is it an emergency?

Um...

Kinda.

I just saw a hippo go under the water.

You're about to see two hippo.

There's two out here.

There's one. Where'd the other one go?

[Danny] Yep, there it is.

Those are the kings of the jungle right there.

I don't wanna go any further down this creek while they're around.

Yeah.

[Danny] As majestic creatures as they may be,

it's also very humbling

when you see them where you collect water.

We are not the apex predator here.

And we need to respect their space.

We're strangers here.

I don't feel safe at all.

[Anthony] Let's truck it out of here before who knows what.

[bleep]

- Just saw [bleep] hippos. - I know.

[Chris] We need to eat.

Today is fishing, hunting, protein.

Yeah.

We're three days into this challenge now.

We're big boys out here. We need some protein.

I am gonna go check out the other side.

Definitely have a spot down here

where we've been hearing all the birds.

Last time, I was a forager.

This time, I hope to be a hunter.

I brought a bow.

Since my last challenge, I've been practicing a lot with the bow.

I'm excited to get out here and use it in a real-life situation

and provide.

- Best of luck to you, man. - Thank you.

- See you in a little while. - You bet.

I'm just gonna work on these bone hooks.

Taken this bone here

and busted off just that center piece.

I slowly start chiseling away,

making a hook shape.

We need food and we need food quickly.

And while Andrew has the bow and arrow,

and that is a great resource for us to have out here -

if we can secure a big kill, that's gonna be outstanding -

however, primitive fishing is something that, I think,

is gonna guarantee Andrew and I success.

[Andrew whispering] I hear tons of birds off in the distance.

I think the guineafowl are in this area right... Right here.

Generally, they're in tall grass

and I won't see 'em until they fly.

I think I might try to go downwind

from a whole flock of guineafowl,

see if I can get a shot off of something.

[Andrew panting]

See it over there?

A squirrel.

[groans]

Tiny little target.

Just barely missed him.

Part of this redemption.

Is proving to myself that I have the skills.

It's a lot of pressure for that one, tiny, brief, quick moment.

That sucks.

I do not feel safe

being on the edge of that water

dealing with my fishing kit,

knowing that there's hippos.

18

And just a little extra.

We're gonna design a trotline

which is basically a fishing line

suspended by two wooden posts

that have hooks hanging down from them.

This way, we can, hopefully, catch some game

while keeping myself safe out here

'cause one little catfish ain't worth dying for.

We got three hooks.

We've got three pieces of bait.

Catfish go after that crappy snake.

Rotten meat, right up their alley.

Yeah.

I don't think there's anything in this world.

That's gonna get the smell out of our hands.

[Anthony] Yep.

[Danny] I will grab the outermost hook.

All right, and I got the pole.

Leave everything else there.

Great.

[Anthony] Avoid the hippo track.

[water splashes]

Danny.

Something just went under right there

and enough to cause a pop-out,

that ripple effect, so... Was it a fish?

Was it a fish?

I couldn't see if it was a fish landing

or something ducking.

It is dangerous.

I get that's their home,

but we're gonna have to invade you're home for just a little bit

'cause we need to eat, we need fish.

Go ahead. Give it a toss as far out as we can.

- Oh, yeah! - [Anthony] Okay. I'm gonna tie it off.

[Danny] Okay, yeah, that'll be perfect.

[Anthony] When the catfish does come,

it can't pull this pole into the water.

[Danny] All right. Secured it onto this bundle of papyrus.

Mission accomplished.

[Anthony] Oh, yeah.

Come on, fishies.

Some delicious smelly snake.

It's what all the cool catfish are eating.

Okay, fingers crossed.

[hooting]

Last challenge,

this was about the time that I was, uh,

this was about the time that I was, uh, on my back

and they were pulling me off the beach,

which, I know, isn't an achievement.

It's not... Shouldn't be a big thing to say, "Hey, I did better,".

But that's already a victory, a personal victory.

[Danny] We have three pieces of snakes on the line out there.

If we get some fish on our line,

it'll be a big game changer here.

I don't wanna see either one of us gas out.

Over-exertion, for me, was an issue the first time.

So we'll just make sure we've got firewood

and check the trap each time we go down to get water.

No big worky stuff.

Day four morning.

Taking out cold, damp asses down to the trotline.

Hopefully, catfish is what's for breakfast.

[sighs]

Starting to get a little chillier, yeah?

No sun.

Would make me really happy if something was already on that line.

[Danny] Not what I was hoping for.

We'll leave you alone if you leave us alone. How about that?

Sound fair?

I'll take that as a yes. [chuckles]

[Danny] Let's hope so.

[Anthony] Nothing there.

[Danny] Nope.

It's all gone.

[bleep]

Oh, even...

Even better, they stole one of our hooks.

[Anthony] There's a lot of fish in here.

Gotta find where to get 'em.

We're [bleep] out of luck

until we can find another snake or more bait.

Um, catfish, they like stinky things. They like rotten meat.

You can't just slap a worm on that

and that really work for you.

So yeah.

[Chris] I'm gonna go with some fishing this morning.

And for that to work,

we need to make some fishing lines for the bone hook.

There's a line.

It's gonna wrap around here,

very similar to a snelled hook,

and then run all the way up to the line.

There we go.

Find a nice fishing pole for that.

That's gonna be my quick fishing pole.

Just gotta bait it, throw it in the water.

Nice and easy.

Termite mound.

It's a perfect opportunity to try and find bait.

[bleep]

This is a spitting cobra.

It'll actually spit venom right on me.

Not only will it create lesions on the skin,

but could actually cause me to go blind.

And I have to be very, very careful with it.

Oh, I want that snake.

This is one of those risk versus reward.

There's a lot of risk in this.

But redemption is something that has to be earned.

[snake hissing]

[bleep] We're spitting venom.

Come on.

[roars] Yeah!

That cobra tried spitting at me.

The Canadian struck back first.

We have food, baby!

This is huge.

We actually have food for the first time in this challenge.

This is an absolute game changer for us.

No way!

[Chris] We got 'em, baby.

Oh, my God, it's huge!

[Chris] We got 'em!

- Oh, my gosh. - Got in there and started swinging.

Yes!

That's a big old meal.

That's a big meal, baby.

I needed that so much.

Boom!

Man, you're my dude.

- You're my guy. - You're my dude!

We've both been working hard,

but we've been coming up with zeros as far as food goes.

This feels like we finally put one on the board.

Something in our belly and it's just...

I remember last time, my last challenge,

how quickly that brings your spirits back.

Snake is done.

[Chris] Beauty.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

- First meal here. - Yes!

[Chris] So good.

[Andrew] It's kinda like bland chicken.

You just pull the little, teeny strips of meat

through the tiny little ribs.

And it's pure protein.

Crazy, it's one of the most, like, dangerous snakes in the world, too.

Uh-huh.

Ain't no match for the boma bros.

No.

[Anthony] Um, food's been our one hold-back.

The hunger level is passed the hunger level.

Really need a victory right now.

[Danny] I am scouting for resources,

[Danny] I am scouting for resources, any resources.

Exploring new areas,

making sure that there's no stone unturned.

My main fear is that we're not gonna have the right bait

to attract the catfish to it.

The snake worked great.

The snake attracts them very quickly.

They snatch it right off the line.

But finding more snakes is the troublesome part.

There's bound to be some good stuff here somewhere.

[Chris] I'm losing weight.

We've eaten a snake in seven days.

So, those are the guts right out of that cobra.

I'm gonna attach those to my fishing line.

I don't know about you, but if I was a catfish,

I would think that looked pretty good.

Bait's in and floating.

Let's see if we can turn one meal into two.

[Andrew] Set up shop behind these little reeds.

I'm always a team player.

So, like, I wanna make sure that I'm giving my all

and that I provide for my best boma buddy Chris.

He brought home that snake.

Now it's my turn to get a kill to get some protein.

Man.

[Danny] Oh, my God.

We are so close to these hippos.

[Anthony] Yeah.

It's a little bit of a fright, a little bit of a worry.

We can't find any snakes, lizards, or things to use for bait.

I recommend, our last-ditch effort,

We just use some animal droppings.

Something fresh, something stinky.

[Anthony] Catfish are crapfish, so...

All right, we'll give that a shot and see.

Fairly fresh. Still moist enough.

It's moist to the touch on the inside.

[Danny] Yeah.

I don't have a whole lot of hope for it,

but it's better than nothing.

Bait's out. Now we wait.

[Chris] Day nine.

This is all brand new

so I need you to take my hand and walk me through it.

- Yeah? - Yeah.

- I got your back, dude, no matter what. - [Chris] I know you do.

I got your back.

It doesn't get easier, that's for sure.

[Chris] I've seen what day eight can bring,

but I've never seen what day nine, 10, 12 brings.

Because I tapped out on my last challenge on day eight.

This is all brand new

and it is all incredibly exciting.

However, the snake provided a little bit of protein in our diet.

We need to secure food

on a more regular basis to survive.

[bird screeching]

Do you hear that?

When you hear birds go crazy, you just gotta be ready.

[groans]

Figures.

- [Chris] Well... - [groans]

[Chris] ...there's always tomorrow, buddy.

[Andrew] Yeah, always tomorrow.

That's what they tell losers.

You're not a loser at all, man.

There's always gonna be another opportunity for you.

And here I am with a partner that...

I couldn't have asked for anyone else.

We just gotta keep fighting through, man.

[Andrew] Yeah. Yeah, definitely.

Aw, I love you, dude.

[Chris] Love you, buddy.

- We'll get food. - Yeah.

That's true.

The hunting's not going so good.

So I'm, uh,

Disheartened, uh, let down.

[tearfully] That's what I feel right now.

[Anthony] It's been a hell of a day.

But one more line-check just in case.

[Danny] I don't see any movement.

[Anthony] I don't see movement either.

[Danny] Food is priority.

At this point, I'm pretty spent.

I'm just fatigued in everything I do.

Unfortunately, it's

mentally and emotionally putting me back in my last challenge.

Looks like it's slacked.

Yeah.

- [Anthony] Nothing? - Wait, wait! Holy [bleep]!

Holy [bleep]!

Looks like it's slacked.

- [Anthony] Nothing? - Yeah.

Wait, wait! Holy [bleep]!

Holy [bleep]!

We got one!

We got a catfish.

Whoo!

[grunts] Check this out.

Oh, hell, yeah.

Wow!

Oh, my God, we can finally eat.

We can finally have a meal.

All this effort was finally for something.

- Nice. - Yes!

[Anthony] We get this much protein and the fats in this...

- [Danny] Oh, yeah. - [Anthony] ...we'll be feeling good.

[Danny] Thank you, Africa.

Fish head stew tonight!

Mmm!

Tasty morsel.

Catfish is on the menu.

Oh!

Look at that.

Well-marbled.

Perfectly cured.

Mmm. Delicate.

Full of flavor.

Essence of hippo.

[Anthony] I've eaten catfish. I've eaten a lot of catfish.

But I don't think I've ever eaten fish that tasted this good.

[Danny] This moment couldn't get any better.

Mmm-hmm.

All right, bud, so I'm thinking I'm gonna go pull lines.

All right, bud, so I'm thinking I'm gonna go pull lines

and get those packed up, ready to go.

[Andrew] Sounds good to me.

Do your thing, come back, we'll figure it out.

- [Chris] Yeah. That's all we can do. - See you.

[Chris] Hopefully, we'll maybe have a fish.

Day 10. That's a little milestone, I guess.

I'm excited for any milestone we can get out here.

I definitely feel beat down.

My energy level's, like, so low.

I'm just kinda like [groans].

But I know I gotta keep fighting.

[Chris] Andrew is absolutely feeling the effects of being hungry.

Looks tired. He looks run-down.

I'm really starting to worry about him.

Keeping Andrew in the game is paramount.

I've been down that path of losing a partner.

I do not wanna go down that path again.

Andrew and I started this challenge together

and I really wanna finish this challenge together with him.

I'm gonna take out my fishing line

and, hopefully, we'll maybe have a fish.

Nothing there.

But the hook's there. Bait's gone.

Just so excited to see what the next chapter holds after merge.

Tomorrow, we march.

[Danny] Let's do this.

Merge day! [howls]

[Anthony] Merge day! Merge day! Merge day!

Party time! Excellent! [sings guitar tune]

Anthony, I'm not gonna miss this place at all.

No, I'm ready to collect everything,

- put this behind us. - [Danny] Yep.

[Anthony] Day 11.

We are literally at the halfway point.

[Danny] Now that we've been able to secure fish,

we've got some momentum.

I've had that... That victory,

um, and felt real food in my stomach.

That gives me so much encouragement

and confidence that we can do this.

We're ready for the merge, so bring it on.

[Anthony] We'll see who we meet up with.

Uh, maybe two girls.

And maybe they used to be on the Swedish bikini team.

It would make it more enjoyable.

We're here, so we gotta move down that riverbed.

Until we see what looks like a big-ass termite mound.

[Danny] Yeah.

- Goodbye. - Goodbye, boma.

[Chris] What we're essentially doing with this merge

is starting over from day one again.

We're dehydrated, we're tired, we're sore.

We don't have any food in our tummies.

This is gonna be a far more daunting task on 11

than it is on one.

[Andrew] This is us.

- Get back to the riverbed. - Yeah.

And then follow the river.

[Chris] That makes sense to me.

[narrator] To reach their merge point,

the survivalists will have to travel

two miles from their respective camps

over a scorched landscape inhabited by lions

and leopards.

They will then hike another two miles east

to a large pond surrounded by massive rock formations.

We've done 11 days.

We can do 10, -make it a new location. - Yeah.

[lions growling]

Entering uncharted territory.

I think I'm gonna probably actually keep one of these...

[Chris] Probably a good idea.

...in my cradle on the handy.

[Chris] Quite the killing zone in here.

Especially because you can see a lot of fresh activity.

So watch the trees for leopards.

That sun has the potential to kick our ass

before this is done.

This is a decent hike.

I've got to just pace myself.

As much as I have this attack attitude,

due to the last challenge, I'm not gonna do that.

Redemption is not in the bag yet.

Danny, how you feeling, brother?

- Starving. - But good.

So we soldier on.

Try and keep my breathing regular and not...

- get out of breath. - Yeah.

[Andrew] I definitely battled weakness and dehydration.

I'm definitely feeling the effects

of that malnutrition.

Body just kinda wearing down.

Hang on. Pause.

Doing okay?

[Andrew] I'm starting to pass out. I'm sorry.

Oh, I hate this feeling.

It's the worst feeling in the world.

Hang on. Pause.

Doing okay?

[Andrew] I'm starting to pass out. I'm sorry.

It's a marathon, not a sprint.

[Andrew] Oh, I hate this feeling.

It's the worst feeling in the world.

[Chris] Slow and steady, buddy. Slow and steady.

That's right. It's my body and I'll protect it.

I'm ready whenever you are.

Let's ride. We're good.

[Andrew] We're pushing on.

I'm a little light-headed,

so Chris right now has my six, making sure that I'm okay.

We're hoping this isn't much further.

We have very little left in the tank right now.

[Danny gasps]

[Anthony] I think I see a big termite mound.

Oh, yeah.

- This must be our termite mound. - Yup.

[Danny] Yoo-hoo!

[Anthony] Here, naked people!

[chuckles]

Hello, hello.

- Hello! Greetings. - Oh, Lord.

What's going on, guys? How you doing? Chris.

- I'm Danny. - Good to meet you.

- Pleasure to meet you, Chris. - I'm Andrew.

- Andrew? - What's up?

- Good to meet you. - Chris.

- Chris? Anthony. - Anthony, good to meet you.

- Hey. Andrew. - Andrew.

- Anthony. Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.

So, we're here for redemption.

What about you guys?

[Anthony] Yeah. Same thing. This is a redemption party.

- This is a redemption party. - We're on that, bro.

Let's say it's a redemption sausage party.

- Yeah. [laughs] - Holy cow.

This is a first, y'all. This is a first.

- [Anthony] I think so. - Yeah.

All dudes.

Surprise, surprise. It's a sausage fest.

Maybe a little extra muscle

will be great for getting the boma started.

We'll see how it goes.

But feel like this will work out great.

I'm really excited to see a bow.

Heck yeah. This is everybody's bow,

- we all use it. - Fantastic.

How's your all's first 11 days been?

Uh, hasn't been bad. Um...

- We caught some fish, we caught some... - Yeah.

Danny brought some fishing line and stuff,

so we were able to actually hand-fish out there.

That's awesome, that's awesome.

[Anthony] This psychopath caught a Mozambique...

[both] Spitting cobra.

- Oh, nice. - Yeah, yeah.

- The spitters? - The spitters, yeah.

- It was terrifying. - I'm with you, man.

That's impressive.

All right, how about we figure out

where the hell we're going?

This is the next chapter, boys.

The next chapter.

[Anthony] We're halfway home, man. We're halfway home.

Uh, and we gotta continue up-river.

Uh, anybody got suggestions for the quickest path?

We wanna try and make a straight line

or just follow the river?

[Chris] We don't know how deep that water runs,

if we try and cross it.

- Because of hippos. - [Andrew] Yeah.

All right. Keep on pushing forward.

- It's all we can do. - I'm down with that.

- Here we go. - Let's go, boys.

- I'll follow you. - Let's get to it.

- All boys pride, let's go. - Lead the way.

- Ow! - [laughs]

[narrator] From the merge point,

the newly-formed team will hike two miles east,

reaching areas with higher elevation

that will cause cooler temperatures,

until they reach a large pond.

As the area's only water source,

it attracts the deadliest predators of the region,

including leopards, lions, and spotted hyena,

which have the strongest bite of any mammal,

allowing them to easily crush the bones of their prey.

[hyenas growling]

Chris and I get on, like, thick as thieves already.

I don't know what your all's relationship has been like, but...

Oh, he annoys the [bleep] out of me.

- [Danny] Yeah, I do. - [laughs]

[Anthony] No, we, um... We've gotten along great too,

and I think the more we can all work together... Yeah?

...um, the easier we make this.

- The better we make this. - Yeah.

Anthony and Danny are fantastic guys.

We share a lot of the same ideas

when it comes to survival.

We're all pulling in the same direction.

This is gonna be awesome.

[warthogs snorting]

[Anthony] Mom, are we there yet?

Mama! [laughs]

Andrew's outpacing us.

I'm just eager to get there before I pass out.

I've been struggling today on this hike.

But once I get there and get some rest

and can lay down for a few minutes,

yeah, I usually will bounce right back.

[Anthony] For sure.

[Danny] We're, like, walking into,

like, a completely different environment right now.

Whoa, baby.

This is a beautiful sight.

[Chris] What have we got?

[Andrew] Water.

[Chris] Oh, wow.

Oh, yeah.

- [Anthony] Ow! - [Chris] That is beautiful.

[Anthony] Look at that.

Oh, this is gorgeous.

Oh, yeah.

We can make this work.

[Chris] Oh, yeah.

I'm digging these rock formations.

[both] Yeah.

[Andrew] I'm thinking this spot up here with the view.

Ooh, yeah.

[Andrew] Rock background for heat and wind block.

[Chris] Altogether I'm pretty happy with this spot.

[Anthony] Yeah.

Holy crap, you guys.

- We got a double water view. - Gorgeous.

- Yeah. - Where you been all my life?

[Chris] There's a lot of work still ahead of us.

We're gonna need a bigger boma,

which means more heat loss. More fire.

But we're also gonna have a lot of hands

pulling in the same direction.

I think it's gonna be really, really good.

[exhales]

Hey, just quick... My pulse is low.

Blacking out, losing vision.

Oh, that's not good. That's what happened to me.

- So you stay with us. - [Andrew] Yeah.

Yeah, so thank you for your patience.

I'm kind of emotional,

because I don't like y'all working, and not working.

But just give me a minute, I'mma bounce back.

- [Anthony] We got you, we got you. - Okay.

Everybody might need one of those days.

Take your time, dude. Do what you need to do.

We're getting through this.

Five minutes till the water's boiled,

then we'll have a drink for you, bud.

I love it. Thank you.

I'mma bounce back. I'll be right back, guys.

[Anthony] I know. We believe in you, brother.

Yeah, it's a bit worrisome.

Blurred vision and dizziness.

Those were also my symptoms,

and the next stage from that is passing out.

That is what led to my medical tap-out.

I know once you get there,

you can't just get up and shake it off.

I hope that's not the case.

It's only right that he finish this time.

But it's scary.

I'm gonna go check on him.

Yeah, he's gonna need that moral support right now.

- [Chris] Yeah, exactly, so... - Yeah.

[Chris] About two hours into getting to location,

Andrew hits a wall.

He starts feeling lightheaded, he starts feeling dizzy.

A very, very difficult moment for me

because Andrew has been my ride-or-die since day one,

And I'm really starting to worry about him.

This is gonna be a tough road to bounce back from,

and I really hope that he doesn't tap.

[Andrew sobbing]

[sighs]

I'm... I'm fine. Just frustrated.

I'm just overdramatic by nature.

[chuckles]

[sighs and sniffles]

[exhales sharply]

[Chris] It's a marathon, right?

[Andrew] Yeah.

[Chris] Right there with you.

Okay.

[Anthony] Day 11 done.

Rough day, but a good day.

We got what we needed done.

[Danny] Boma wall, boma door. Heaps of firewood.

[Anthony] Heat up done.

We are more than halfway through this thing.

Hard day. Glad this day's over.

So lightheaded, and just kinda come and go,

but I'm just gonna push on, hope for the best,

'cause I'm afraid that it's gonna be mighty cold.

It's tough fitting four big dudes around one fire

to the point where we can all stay warm enough all night,

'cause it's freezing cold out here.

[sighing]

Oh, God.

Oh, it's getting a bit colder.

[Andrew sobs]

It's just miserable [groans] and I hate it.

I hate it so much.

[sobbing]

[Anthony] Oh, I [bleep] hate the cold.

Really cold.

Burnt through pretty much all the rest of our firewood.

Oh [bleep].

[Andrew sobbing]

[Danny] Oh, son of a bitch.

[Andrew sobbing]

Oh...

[Anthony] Oh, man.

[Andrew] It's just the worst.

It just feels the worst.

[Danny] Nine days, that's all we gotta do.

Nine days and that's all,

and we are [bleep] out of here!

All right.

Turn the heat on, South Africa.

Hands down, the worst night we've gone through.

This is about as bad as it can get, I hope,

'cause if it gets any worse...

I don't know where you go from there.

[Danny] I know the cold is one brutal enemy to have.

It can take you out of the game.

It's reminding me a lot of my experience in Colorado,

and that's something I'd rather forget.

[Andrew] It's [bleep] spirit-crushing.

I feel pretty beat down today.

Four big dudes trying to huddle round one fire.

It's so cold we're sleeping with the flames

about three inches from our faces,

and then our other half behind our back

is freezing cold.

It's like we're sitting laying on an ice box.

It's the craziest thing to be that hot and that cold

at the same time.

I'm gonna go fill these pots up.

[Anthony] My big concern tonight is warmth.

Try to stop that breeze from coming through

and freezing my back out

- like it did last night. - Yeah. Mine too.

We can prop some bamboo

up against, like, this wall, for sure.

Yup.

[Andrew] You know, I always tell everyone,

"Push, push, push, till you can't."

My last challenge was certainly hard as well, but...

I think this challenge has brought me to that point.

It is kinda like you're sinking in quicksand.

And I realize that's a lack of food, water, sleep.

And I feel like I just sank too far this time.

I just can't climb out.

Hey, boys. [clears throat]

Um, I hope if you'll, uh... respect my decision,

I'm tapping out.

This challenge kinda broke me a little bit out here.

There's some things more important.

That is me and my body, and, uh...

nothing hurts worse than saying that out loud.

Uh...

But I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry for leaving you guys.

Are you sure?

- You sure we can't support you through this? - I'm sure.

- We'll be friends forever. - Forever.

[Andrew sobs]

I'm gonna leave all my supplies.

My bow is yours, of course.

Just kill it out here.

[sniffles]

That would make my...

That would make all of this worth it.

Just see y'all cross that line and... [sighs]

[Sean] Hi, Andrew. Hi, guys.

Hey. Um, I'm choosing to tap out

[clears throat] of this challenge.

- Are you sure that's what you wanna do? - Yes.

Okay, would you like to say goodbye

- to your fellow contestants? - Yes, yes. Thank you.

I'm here with you, brother.

[Andrew sighs]

[Andrew sniffles]

All right, thank you, guys. Be careful.

We will. See you, Andrew.

I feel like... I feel like...

quitting is the worst thing in the world.

But in this moment, this is what I have to do.

This story will go on because I have new friends,

and I'll have memories to tell from this forever,

and that's a great, great prize

that I get to take home with me.

I pulled out on day 13 last time.

It's day 12 this time, so... a day short, but, uh,

you know, numbers are numbers.

To those guys in my pride, my brothers out there,

hope you feel my spirit with you.

There's no bigger cheerleader in the whole world than me.

[narrator] After making it only to day 12,

Andrew leaves the challenge with a PSR of 5.4.

[Chris] I never knew that,

you know, 12 days ago,

I would meet somebody that I would form

such a strong connection with in Andrew.

He's my brother.

It hurts.

[sniffs]

That one kicks.

[Anthony] Yeah. Hard.

Especially for you.

Why don't we let you chill for a bit?

Covering each other's back is the only way

you get through [bleep] like this.

[Danny] Andrew left,

and I think it's weighing very heavy on Chris's mind.

So Anthony and I are doing everything we can.

We're making sure he gets rest.

I think that's gonna do him a world of good.

All right, she's loose.

Danny was able to do some exploring and find

a small patch of bamboo,

which is gonna be extremely helpful.

Bamboo, you're building houses

out of this in other countries.

There we go.

One, two, three.

Seems like I'm always chopping [bleep].

Now we're doing just a basic lean-to with the bamboo,

with the bamboo, which will add some shade

and also work as a wind break

to give us a spot to sit, relax, out of the sun

during the hottest parts of the day.

[dramatically] Limpopo Pride.

Breakers of wind, builder of bomas.

[Anthony] We'll be so much more comfortable tonight.

Better structure, warmer temperatures.

A good night.

The boma's been improved, so tonight, already,

not nearly as chilly.

It's good. I expect it's gonna be a good night.

Let's see what tomorrow brings.

[Danny] All right. Another beautiful morning.

[Anthony] Oh, yeah.

Yeah, no wind anymore.

Last night was a huge improvement.

The wind isn't drafting through like it was before.

I probably slept more last night

than I have this whole time.

Here we are, day 13.

I have now broken through the threshold

of my last record.

I was medically tapped out of Colorado on day 12.

So, what's the plan for today, boys?

- [Danny] Oh, food. - Food.

- Food is the plan for the day. - I agree.

[Anthony] Hopefully you're pulling in a goose,

but we'll get some fishing lines out there as well.

Out there as well.

[elephant trumpets]

[Danny] We are getting much, much skinnier.

We're all feeling the effects of fatigue,

so the plans for today -

we're gonna get our fishing lines in the water

and hopefully catch more food.

[Anthony] Hopefully we can rail one in.

[Chris] I know Andrew really wants me

to finish this for him.

And I think that is allowing me to turn a corner

and really refocus on what the mission actually is,

and that is completing the full 21-day redemption.

Not only for me, but also for Andrew.

One that that Andrew told me before he left is

he wanted me to continue to use the bow,

and I'm gonna go out hunting today.

I am still carrying him with me

and we are gonna make it

through the finish line together.

I see two geese.

Hoping I'm gonna be able to sneak up on them

and get a nice, clean shot.

[geese quacking]

They might have caught my shadow, plus my smell.

And they were gone.

That's hunting.

[lion growls]

I think the next few days are the most critical

for securing food.

The extraction hike is still a long way away.

We are running short on energy.

I think it's time for a hunt. Test my luck out there.

I've never gone bow-hunting before.

So it's intimidating but exciting.

Every animal's gotta drink out here,

so I'm hoping that I can find some coming down to the river.

I plan on hiding among the bushes and trees

and just waiting.

Let's go see if we got breakfast on the menu.

Nothing.

Bait's still on it. No signs of any nibbling or nothing.

We'll come back and check on that in a little bit.

[Danny whispering]

- [waterbuck groans] - [bleeping] I hit it.

[bleep] I hit it.

[bleep]

Holy [bleep].

There's no breathing. There's no movement.

My arrow went straight through

the entire body, through the lungs.

Right behind the elbow.

[exhales deeply]

[ragged breathing]

Thank you for your sacrifice.

[exhales deeply]

[softly] Yes.

[inhales sharply] We can finally eat.

[chuckles]

[ragged breathing] Yes!

We can eat now.

I just shot a South African waterbuck.

I cannot believe this is happening.

[sighs] Time to tell my tribe the good news.

[howls loudly]

[shouts] We have meat!

- Yeah! - Come quickly!

Bring the knife! Bring the axe!

Bring your appetite!

[sighs]

Never in my life did I think this would happen.

I've never been bow-hunting before.

I've pretty much just been target-shooting at home.

And I shot a 400-pound waterbuck from 20 yards away.

[sniffs loudly]

After all this suffering, it's a dream come true.

Oh, beauty.

It's a South African waterbuck.

It's awesome, buddy.

Well done.

I got her right through the lungs.

[Chris] Good shot, baby. Good shot.

Thanks, man. Thank you.

[Anthony] That's a major thing for Danny.

He'd never been big game-hunting.

He just drew back an arrow

and actually took down big game

first time, first try, so, uh,

that'll be a once-in-a-lifetime

world-living experience for him, for sure.

[Chris] Just keep peeling it away slowly.

This is absolutely insane.

[Chris] It's awesome. Good for you.

[Danny] With an animal that size,

it is a huge, huge undertaking,

so we decide to just quarter it...

- [Anthony] There we go. - [Chris] Yeah.

...get the legs off.

That's where the largest amounts of meat are.

I'm gonna leave the rest for the wildlife.

[sighs]

And back to camp.

[Danny] Things can change on a dime.

And it just proves

that if you keep your mental game strong,

you will make it.

[Chris] So, here's what I'm thinking.

We're losing sun.

- [Danny] Mmm-hmm. - And this is a lot of meat...

that we're not gonna have time to process all today.

So why don't we wrap this

the best we can in the grasses,

and throw it in our cave?

I like that idea.

Nothing's getting in that cave.

It's filled in with acacia.

[Danny] Bulletproof plan, gentlemen. Let's do it.

[Anthony] I like it.

We are scrambling to figure out

a way to preserve all this.

So we decide for now we need to wrap it up.

So we decide for now we need to wrap it up

in grasses, make sure it stays clean,

and we're gonna stuff it in the cave

that's beside our boma.

The cave stays nice and cool.

It's like 50 degrees in there in the heat of the day,

so it's the perfect place to keep it refrigerated.

[groans]

We have meat.

Oh, my God, that looks so good.

- [Chris] Doesn't it? - Yeah.

[Chris] This moment is massive.

We all needed food, and we were at that critical point,

and Danny provided it for us.

A toast to you, my brother.

You actually [bleep] killed a waterbuck in Africa.

[chuckling] I know.

[Anthony] You won't forget that any time soon...

- No. - ...in your life.

No. This is, like, one of the biggest moments

in my entire life.

Wow.

[Danny] Not only have I achieved a dream.

[Danny] Not only have I achieved a dream

some people can only hope to accomplish, but...

I fed my tribe for the rest of the challenge.

- We all got full bellies? - [Chris] Yeah.

[Chris] We kept our meat in our primitive cold storage

all night.

And even just opening this right now,

I can feel how much colder it is.

We have a ton of meat

that I gotta process here very, very quickly.

We gotta get it on the smoker, get it preserved,

and make sure that we don't lose any of this,

especially so close to extraction.

Building a smoker frame.

The idea is a tripod.

Run a reed through the next one and the next one,

lay reeds across, you create a rack.

Three or four racks based on that.

[Danny] We've got some waterbuck sizzling

- on a hot rock. - [Chris] Yup.

Cooked over an open flame.

We're living it up out here, everybody.

We're almost out of here

and we're still feasting like kings.

Not to mention this sweet, sweet smoker.

Not to mention this sweet, sweet smoker we've devised.

The Meat-za Hut 2,000, is that what it's called, Anthony?

Yeah. Yup.

[Danny] This is a thing of beauty.

[Chris] Anthony, you constructed this beast.

You wanna do the honors?

[Anthony] Sure.

I'd like a ribbon to maybe cut it and...

- [Danny laughs] - You know?

That's jerky.

I'm gonna grab another chunk for you.

[Danny] Oh, nice.

[Anthony] This is a lot of meat.

With the cold nights we have

and it stored away in the cave safely...

[Anthony] Mmm-hmm.

...I think we're...

getting pretty damn good at this, boys.

Making it happen, boys. We're making it happen.

[animal calling]

[leaves rustling]

- [hyenas cackling] - [bleep]

[Anthony] Hey! Get out of here.

Get, get. [bleep]

Get out of here.

[hyena cackling]

[Chris] Hey!

Get the [bleep] out of here!

All right. Back by popular demand,

the legends are true, my friends.

The Meat-za Hut 2,000.

The ultimate pinnacle in smoking technology.

It gets better. That's right. It gets better.

We're gonna reinforce the walls,

get some more proper fuel, and before you know it

we're gonna be swimming in meat.

Yeah, that's a great mental image, isn't it?

[deep voice] We've got the meat.

Spoil your meat [echoes] meat, meat, meat...

Hyenas.

- [hyena braying] - Hey! Hey!

[hyena cackling]

[geese quacking]

So, we've had the honor and privilege.

Of being visited by hyenas last night.

We've got two thorn barriers

so hopefully it's doing its job.

'Cause hyenas, they're opportunistic animals

and they are ruthless.

They seem to be gone now.

My brave hero Chris scared them all.

[chuckles]

Thanks, buddy.

[Anthony] Last supper.

[Danny] Oh, man. It's bittersweet.

You know, I am gonna miss this.

Wherever the winds may take us in life,

we're always gonna have 21 days in Africa.

Mmm-hmm.

[Chris] And this is the redemption tribe family.

And that is something

that will never, ever be removed from us.

To our last night here.

Absolutely. Last night.

[burps loudly]

Compliments to the chef.

[Anthony] Team effort, boys. Team effort.

[Danny] Mmm-hmm.

All right, got my axe and I'm taking my bow and knife,

the spear, the bow and arrows.

I've got one of the pots and the fishing line.

This is it, fellas.

- Hell yeah, it is. - Action time, boys.

Say goodbye... to your Air B-and Boma.

[Danny] Uh-huh.

[Anthony] Whoosh.

Let's take a look at the map and figure this out.

With our boma here, it's gotta be there.

- [Chris] Call it a day. - Yeah.

- We good with that? - Yeah. Let's do it.

Let's get the hell out of here.

[narrator] The tribe will be heading four miles northeast,

across hostile terrain covered with jagged rocks

and needle-like thorns,

to their extraction point next to a small lake.

To their extraction point next to a small lake.

The soaring temperatures

will further deplete their dwindling energy levels.

And they'll have to be on guard for black mambas,

lions, and crocodiles lurking in every shadow.

[Anthony] It's what it's all for, boys.

- [both] Yeah. - [Danny] The end is near.

We don't get redemption till we get to

- that extraction vehicle. - Yeah.

As of right now, it's just another day.

[Danny] Yeah.

Now we're rock-hopping.

This extraction hike is incredibly treacherous.

There is a ton of rocky outcrops and a very hot sun.

And it's prime location for scorpions

as well as snakes.

- Feeling that heat now. - Oh, yeah.

- You just bake in the [bleep]. - Yeah.

It's still pretty early morning right now though.

[Danny] [bleep] stinky rotisserie chickens.

Heating up.

[Anthony] Let's keep our eyes on point.

We haven't seen a lot of them out here,

but we are in snake territory right now.

[Chris] Yeah. The brush is only getting thicker, too.

You know, despite all the water we drank this morning,

my mouth and throat is already parched.

[Anthony] Yeah.

[Chris] I'm running on fumes, boys.

[Anthony] I understand that, man.

Let's just try and keep pushing.

Right in front of the left.

So, first challenge, I sprinted a marathon.

You can't do that.

I learned from my mistakes.

You gotta listen to your body.

Stay resilient. And I did.

Redemption, it's not in the bag yet,

but get me the F out of here. Let's go.

Whoa. That's a big body of water.

Got a lake ahead of us.

Wow.

That is Africa.

That should be our road on the other side of that.

- It has to be. - Somewhere.

Come on, final push, fellas.

- Final [bleep] push. - Do it!

[Danny] By day 12 of Colorado,

I had nothing left in me.

Now here I am, day 21,

and I've done more than redeem myself.

I made it this far. I'm gonna make it out of here.

No breaks, no rests. Let's just finish it.

Oh, I can hear something.

We're just over there.

- Oh, yeah! - Oh, there it is!

- Yeah, yeah! - There it is!

[all] Whoo!

- Yeah! - Whoo!

Get over here, baby.

- Yeah, we did it! - Yeah, boys!

Yeah!

Whoo!

- Limpopo! - Yeah!

This moment. This is our redemption.

Yes.

Nobody's ever taking that from you, brother.

Oh... The past three years have been filled with

what-ifs and who-knows.

And I have learned that I am a lot tougher.

Than I maybe thought I was.

And today, that all comes to a close.

I've done it. I've done 21 days.

I have achieved redemption.

Andrew's coming with us.

This will forever change me for the better,

and I am so thankful for this opportunity to come back.

[bleep] did this, boys.

We did this, boys!

Yeah!

- Yeah! - [Anthony] See you, Africa!

This feeling is profound.

It is undescribable.

It has been an accumulation of three years for me.

Two for you. How long for you?

- Five. - Five.

Five years of thinking this was never gonna happen again.

[narrator] Over the past 21 days,

Chris lost 18 pounds.

His PSR increases from 5.6 to 7.4.

[Chris] I would be remiss if I wasn't sad

that Andrew wasn't here joining us.

Andrew, buddy, we missed you, and you are with us in spirit.

It hasn't hit me yet. Like it's not real.

[Danny] This is the challenge that I wanted.

I wanted the hardship and the success,

and that's exactly what I got.

Nothing will ever be as challenging as this.

And with that in mind, I can do anything.

[narrator] Danny lost 16 pounds.

His PSR goes from 7.0 to 8.1.

[Anthony] Having a redemption

was something I couldn't say no to.

This is literally one of those life events that,

whatever else may come, may go, this is permanent.

[narrator] Anthony lost 15 pounds.

His PSR rises from 5.8 to 7.9.

- Redemption is forever! - Yeah, baby.

[all whooping]

[Anthony] Goodbye Africa!

[Danny] Goodbye Limpopo!
