worried about you, josh.

narrator: In the world's
harshest environments,
10
00:00:42,777 --> 00:00:44,510
two experienced survivalists
11
00:00:44,512 --> 00:00:46,779
put their skills to
the ultimate test
12
00:00:46,781 --> 00:00:50,182
without food, water, or clothes.
13
00:00:50,184 --> 00:00:52,184
[ cries ] [ grunting ]
14
00:00:52,186 --> 00:00:55,588
now in the swampy jungles
of southern nicaragua,
15
00:00:55,590 --> 00:00:57,256
two strangers have
to work together
16
00:00:57,258 --> 00:00:59,258
to survive for 21 days...
17
00:01:01,329 --> 00:01:03,396
Joshua: This is life or death.

00:01:03,398 --> 00:01:06,431
Captions paid for by
discovery communications
19
00:01:06,433 --> 00:01:10,002
my two phobias are
latex balloons and spiders.
20
00:01:10,004 --> 00:01:12,204
I absolutely hate spiders,
21
00:01:12,206 --> 00:01:16,942
and there are a ton of them
out here that are everywhere.
22
00:01:16,944 --> 00:01:18,477
My name's amanda lee,
23
00:01:18,479 --> 00:01:22,548
and I grew up running around
barefoot in the hills of texas,
24
00:01:22,550 --> 00:01:25,151
building different
sorts of shelters
25
00:01:25,153 --> 00:01:27,686
and different ways to start
fire and hunting snakes,
26
00:01:27,688 --> 00:01:29,422
and that's how
we'd get our dinner.
27
00:01:29,424 --> 00:01:32,558
I'm sort of emotionless
about meeting my partner.
28
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,094
It's -- I don't know -- a
natural defense I have
29
00:01:35,096 --> 00:01:36,896
going into situations
I know I can't control
30
00:01:36,898 --> 00:01:38,564
or that I don't know
anything about.
31
00:01:38,566 --> 00:01:43,835
I make no apologies about
liking animals more than humans
32
00:01:43,837 --> 00:01:48,373
'cause, quite frankly, they're
more loyal and easier to trust.
33
00:01:48,375 --> 00:01:50,776
Joshua: Mother nature's
gonna be my bitch.
34
00:01:50,778 --> 00:01:53,446
I am the apex predator.
It's all mind over matter.
35
00:01:53,448 --> 00:01:56,315
Anything she throws
at me, I'll push past it.
36
00:01:56,317 --> 00:01:57,716
My name is joshua.
37
00:01:57,718 --> 00:02:00,986
I'm a gunsmith from
roxboro, north carolina.
38
00:02:00,988 --> 00:02:03,990
I am the total
stereotypical redneck.
39
00:02:03,992 --> 00:02:05,190
[ gunshot ]
40
00:02:05,192 --> 00:02:07,393
a real redneck ain't
afraid to get dirty,
41
00:02:07,395 --> 00:02:08,927
ain't afraid of hard work,
42
00:02:08,929 --> 00:02:10,996
and we'll make chicken
salad out of chicken [bleep]
43
00:02:10,998 --> 00:02:14,867
I grew up on a tobacco
farm in north carolina,
44
00:02:14,869 --> 00:02:17,469
so tobacco industry is
a big part of my heritage.
45
00:02:17,471 --> 00:02:20,139
I've been struggling to
kick this habit for years,
46
00:02:20,141 --> 00:02:22,141
and I think this
21 days right here
47
00:02:22,143 --> 00:02:26,746
will definitely aid in
that, so last cigarette.
48
00:02:26,748 --> 00:02:28,247
No more ever again.
49
00:02:32,954 --> 00:02:36,555
All right. No turning back now.
50
00:02:36,557 --> 00:02:38,691
Growing up, I was always
51
00:02:38,693 --> 00:02:42,294
this fiery, determined
ball of energy,
52
00:02:42,296 --> 00:02:44,696
and then being stepped
on so many times,
53
00:02:44,698 --> 00:02:46,031
I lost that confidence.
54
00:02:46,033 --> 00:02:48,367
I wanted to do this
to prove to myself
55
00:02:48,369 --> 00:02:51,236
that I've still got some
of that ornery spirit to me
56
00:02:51,238 --> 00:02:53,772
and see if I can overcome
that 'cause, if I can,
57
00:02:53,774 --> 00:02:56,775
it just makes me feel like
that much stronger of a woman.
58
00:02:56,777 --> 00:02:59,845
All right, let's light
this firecracker.
59
00:02:59,847 --> 00:03:01,714
Being a redneck, it
ain't nothing for me,
60
00:03:01,716 --> 00:03:03,649
ain't nothing but
another day on the farm.
61
00:03:03,651 --> 00:03:05,851
Except for this farm's
a hell of a lot bigger
62
00:03:05,853 --> 00:03:08,154
and a hell of a lot
more dangerous.
63
00:03:27,808 --> 00:03:28,874
Hi. Hi.
64
00:03:28,876 --> 00:03:29,809
How are you?
65
00:03:29,811 --> 00:03:31,343
If I was any
better, I'd be naked.
66
00:03:31,345 --> 00:03:32,411
Oh, wait.
67
00:03:32,413 --> 00:03:35,281
[ laughs ] I love it already.
68
00:03:35,283 --> 00:03:36,549
Yeah. I'm amanda.
69
00:03:36,551 --> 00:03:37,549
I'm joshua. Joshua.
70
00:03:37,551 --> 00:03:38,817
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
71
00:03:38,819 --> 00:03:40,219
See you've got the
same outfit as me.
72
00:03:40,221 --> 00:03:43,088
Oh, yeah, I mean, god, I
hate it when people match.
73
00:03:43,090 --> 00:03:44,290
Dang it.
74
00:03:44,292 --> 00:03:45,424
And it took me five hours
to pick this one out, too.
75
00:03:45,426 --> 00:03:47,493
Really? I threw it
on in 30 seconds.
76
00:03:47,495 --> 00:03:49,028
'course. Men.
77
00:03:49,030 --> 00:03:50,296
Exactly.
78
00:03:50,298 --> 00:03:51,897
Immediately, we
were able to have
79
00:03:51,899 --> 00:03:53,499
kind of that banter
back and forth
80
00:03:53,501 --> 00:03:55,234
and sort play off
each other's sarcasm,
81
00:03:55,236 --> 00:03:59,171
so I think that's gonna work
extremely well in our favor.
82
00:03:59,173 --> 00:04:01,240
Let's see what we got here.
83
00:04:01,242 --> 00:04:02,575
All right, well...
84
00:04:02,577 --> 00:04:04,643
Narrator: Like many
survivalists before her,
85
00:04:04,645 --> 00:04:06,445
amanda has elected to
bring along a machete.
86
00:04:06,447 --> 00:04:07,846
Oh, nice.
87
00:04:07,848 --> 00:04:09,314
What'd you bring?
88
00:04:09,316 --> 00:04:12,985
While josh has opted for a
more unconventional tool.
89
00:04:12,987 --> 00:04:14,019
Duct tape.
90
00:04:14,021 --> 00:04:15,987
[ laughs ] awesome. Awesome.
91
00:04:15,989 --> 00:04:19,191
My dad always says, "if
you can't duct it, [bleep]"
92
00:04:19,193 --> 00:04:21,794
this is a redneck's multi-tool.
93
00:04:21,796 --> 00:04:23,796
We are going to be clothed.
We are going to be shoed.
94
00:04:23,798 --> 00:04:25,197
I love the color
you chose. I know.
95
00:04:25,199 --> 00:04:26,999
Maybe I can get
joshua to make me
96
00:04:27,001 --> 00:04:30,469
some sort of a
duct-tape bikini bottom.
97
00:04:30,471 --> 00:04:34,340
In addition to their tools, josh
and amanda were each given
98
00:04:34,342 --> 00:04:36,809
a primitive survival
rating, or psr,
99
00:04:36,811 --> 00:04:40,612
as determined by a panel
of experts in primitive survival
100
00:04:40,614 --> 00:04:42,481
and special forces training.
101
00:04:42,483 --> 00:04:43,883
While unorthodox,
102
00:04:43,885 --> 00:04:47,486
josh possesses a solid
level of basic wilderness skills.
103
00:04:47,488 --> 00:04:49,888
But the fact that he is a smoker
104
00:04:49,890 --> 00:04:52,691
brings his physical
stamina into question
105
00:04:52,693 --> 00:04:54,693
and lowers his score to a 6.1.
106
00:04:54,695 --> 00:04:57,162
Amanda's limited
experience in the outdoors
107
00:04:57,164 --> 00:04:59,565
makes her an
intermediate-level survivalist.
108
00:04:59,567 --> 00:05:01,433
But her tendency
to act as a loner
109
00:05:01,435 --> 00:05:04,236
could interfere with her
ability to work with a partner.
110
00:05:04,238 --> 00:05:05,904
She scores a psr of 5.8.
111
00:05:05,906 --> 00:05:09,575
If they're able to make it
to the end of the 21 days,
112
00:05:09,577 --> 00:05:12,211
their psrs will be reevaluated.
113
00:05:25,792 --> 00:05:27,693
[ sighs ]
114
00:05:27,695 --> 00:05:30,329
the one thing that's a
little disturbing to me,
115
00:05:30,331 --> 00:05:33,365
almost unnerving, right
now is the lack of wildlife.
116
00:05:33,367 --> 00:05:35,267
I've seen some insects, but...
117
00:05:35,269 --> 00:05:37,469
It's all gonna
come alive at night.
118
00:05:37,471 --> 00:05:40,739
It's almost like they're
in hiding from something.
119
00:05:40,741 --> 00:05:43,408
I don't know if we're
scaring them off
120
00:05:43,410 --> 00:05:45,444
or something else out there.
121
00:05:48,248 --> 00:05:49,415
Ooh, let's see.
122
00:05:49,417 --> 00:05:51,283
What's you seeing, josh?
123
00:05:51,285 --> 00:05:54,820
Uh...I've seen tracks
similar to that in florida
124
00:05:54,822 --> 00:05:57,489
where the american
alligator lives.
125
00:05:57,491 --> 00:05:58,490
Okay.
126
00:05:58,492 --> 00:06:00,860
Well, we do have
some caiman out here.
127
00:06:04,665 --> 00:06:06,431
Josh and amanda
have been inserted
128
00:06:06,433 --> 00:06:08,434
along the southern
border of nicaragua
129
00:06:08,436 --> 00:06:10,235
on the shore of
the san juan river.
130
00:06:10,237 --> 00:06:12,304
Here, one of the
largest populations
131
00:06:12,306 --> 00:06:14,573
of fresh-water caiman
in central america
132
00:06:14,575 --> 00:06:17,643
will force them to move inland
through the thick rainforest
133
00:06:17,645 --> 00:06:19,978
in search of drier
ground for a camp spot.
134
00:06:19,980 --> 00:06:21,513
But the jungle is home
135
00:06:21,515 --> 00:06:24,984
to aggressively territorial
spider and howler monkeys
136
00:06:24,986 --> 00:06:27,586
and over 150,000
species of teeming insects,
137
00:06:27,588 --> 00:06:30,689
deadly spiders, and
highly venomous snakes.
138
00:06:40,934 --> 00:06:44,870
I think I see a little bit
of a clearing up ahead.
139
00:06:44,872 --> 00:06:47,539
I hate to almost do it,
but we're losing light fast.
140
00:06:47,541 --> 00:06:50,075
We're gonna have to set
up a temporary shelter.
141
00:06:50,077 --> 00:06:52,678
Clouds have been
moving in and out, as well.
142
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,347
We're only losing
daylight, so if this is it,
143
00:06:55,349 --> 00:06:57,215
let's get started building.
144
00:06:57,217 --> 00:07:00,352
I think I set my machete
down over there.
145
00:07:00,354 --> 00:07:03,288
Oh, you did? Hey,
I'll tell you what.
146
00:07:03,290 --> 00:07:06,558
That's kind of hard to
see in natural colors.
147
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,159
This is rather bright.
148
00:07:08,161 --> 00:07:10,362
Let's wrap a wrap
around the handle.
149
00:07:10,364 --> 00:07:11,697
Make it noticeable.
150
00:07:11,699 --> 00:07:13,365
Yeah, in case we lose it.
151
00:07:13,367 --> 00:07:16,168
Definitely don't want
to lose the machete.
152
00:07:16,170 --> 00:07:17,235
Make it purdy.
153
00:07:17,237 --> 00:07:18,436
I'm super excited.
154
00:07:18,438 --> 00:07:21,507
It seems like we both have
the same sense of humor.
155
00:07:21,509 --> 00:07:23,575
I'm kind of the duct tape queen,
156
00:07:23,577 --> 00:07:25,510
so this is gonna be interesting.
157
00:07:25,512 --> 00:07:28,247
How do you like this height?
158
00:07:28,249 --> 00:07:30,516
You're the michelangelo
here. You're the architect.
159
00:07:30,518 --> 00:07:31,650
Then I'll cut another one,
160
00:07:31,652 --> 00:07:33,719
and we can put it on
the other side of this.
161
00:07:33,721 --> 00:07:35,187
It makes it a little bit wider.
162
00:07:35,189 --> 00:07:36,788
The trunk will be
part of the bed,
163
00:07:36,790 --> 00:07:37,990
if you're okay with that.
164
00:07:37,992 --> 00:07:39,191
Whatever, man.
165
00:07:39,193 --> 00:07:41,794
So, this is a good length.
166
00:07:41,796 --> 00:07:43,128
It's splitting.
167
00:07:43,130 --> 00:07:44,396
Amanda: Pull it towards you.
168
00:07:44,398 --> 00:07:45,597
Yeah. Yep.
169
00:07:45,599 --> 00:07:47,065
There you go. [ groans ]
170
00:07:47,067 --> 00:07:48,400
good grief.
171
00:07:48,402 --> 00:07:50,936
It's a brand-new machete.
172
00:07:50,938 --> 00:07:55,807
Has a factory edge on
it, which dulled quickly.
173
00:07:55,809 --> 00:07:59,544
So I'm having to
exert more force
174
00:07:59,546 --> 00:08:01,413
to do the same amount of work.
175
00:08:01,415 --> 00:08:05,818
This [bleep] sucks.
176
00:08:06,554 --> 00:08:09,088
Amanda: Wow, that's solid.
177
00:08:09,090 --> 00:08:11,022
I'm not a big cuddler.
178
00:08:11,024 --> 00:08:13,225
I love my personal bubble.
179
00:08:13,227 --> 00:08:14,960
So I'm nervous about tonight.
180
00:08:14,962 --> 00:08:17,562
I'm not gonna be
snuggling up on someone,
181
00:08:17,564 --> 00:08:19,164
just for the comfort
of physical touch.
182
00:08:21,435 --> 00:08:24,169
Narrator: While amanda
reinforces the shelter,
183
00:08:24,171 --> 00:08:26,304
joshua fashions a
cup from duct tape
184
00:08:26,306 --> 00:08:29,808
so they can turn their attention
to the next necessity -- water.
185
00:08:35,716 --> 00:08:40,386
Hey, I found some mud
down here, pure mud.
186
00:08:40,388 --> 00:08:41,787
Whoo! Water.
187
00:08:41,789 --> 00:08:43,655
It's very, very small trickle.
188
00:08:43,657 --> 00:08:45,858
The water gathered
in these stagnant pools
189
00:08:45,860 --> 00:08:47,860
has most likely
been contaminated
190
00:08:47,862 --> 00:08:50,662
by nearby plant life,
mosquitoes, and animal feces
191
00:08:50,664 --> 00:08:55,934
that can cause typhoid
and other deadly diseases.
192
00:08:55,936 --> 00:08:57,469
This area's like
really, really wet.
193
00:08:57,471 --> 00:08:59,671
I think we might be able
to find some water in here.
194
00:08:59,673 --> 00:09:01,673
Because of the presence
of carbon in the dirt,
195
00:09:01,675 --> 00:09:03,408
digging a small seep well
196
00:09:03,410 --> 00:09:06,544
will filter out many
potential contaminants
197
00:09:06,546 --> 00:09:10,349
as the water slowly trickles
from the sides and below.
198
00:09:10,351 --> 00:09:13,218
We're wasting a
lot of energy for this
199
00:09:13,220 --> 00:09:15,087
if it doesn't turn out.
200
00:09:17,358 --> 00:09:18,423
Look, look.
201
00:09:18,425 --> 00:09:20,024
It's starting to fill in.
202
00:09:20,026 --> 00:09:21,026
Yeah.
203
00:09:21,028 --> 00:09:23,062
Like, it's just
flowing in on its own.
204
00:09:28,235 --> 00:09:32,905
Hey, we can make, like, a
little pallet out of duct tape
205
00:09:32,907 --> 00:09:34,039
to cover it.
206
00:09:35,976 --> 00:09:38,377
Nice.
207
00:09:38,379 --> 00:09:39,378
That's great.
208
00:09:39,380 --> 00:09:40,646
I'm surprised.
209
00:09:40,648 --> 00:09:44,116
I didn't think it was
gonna taste near that good.
210
00:09:44,118 --> 00:09:45,851
It's a make-or-break for us.
211
00:09:45,853 --> 00:09:49,254
If there's water in the
morning, we're gonna be okay.
212
00:09:49,256 --> 00:09:54,026
If there's not, there
is no plan "b" yet.
213
00:09:58,799 --> 00:10:04,736
Right now about to make
my partner a brassiere
214
00:10:04,738 --> 00:10:07,806
out of duct tape
and possibly vine.
215
00:10:07,808 --> 00:10:09,474
I don't know yet.
216
00:10:09,476 --> 00:10:13,679
I feel it's a good
gesture of community
217
00:10:13,681 --> 00:10:18,950
to kind of help her cover up.
218
00:10:18,952 --> 00:10:20,351
I'm a modest girl.
219
00:10:20,353 --> 00:10:23,555
I don't really care to have
everything out on display,
220
00:10:23,557 --> 00:10:26,825
so I'm very grateful that
he put that together for me.
221
00:10:26,827 --> 00:10:29,961
And tomorrow, we'll get you
some matching underwear.
222
00:10:29,963 --> 00:10:31,229
That would be great.
223
00:10:31,231 --> 00:10:33,432
I've already had
quite a few things
224
00:10:33,434 --> 00:10:36,335
interested in the accessories
I have down there.
225
00:10:42,510 --> 00:10:46,044
These things are
all over my back.
226
00:10:46,046 --> 00:10:47,846
It's a little bit too dark to be
traveling to our water hole.
227
00:10:47,848 --> 00:10:49,247
Yeah.
228
00:10:49,249 --> 00:10:51,516
We've got a bed, we've got
some fresh drinking water,
229
00:10:51,518 --> 00:10:54,720
and that's crucial to survival.
230
00:10:54,722 --> 00:10:57,255
I'm really, really
worried about fire.
231
00:10:57,257 --> 00:11:00,792
There is not a lot of dry
wood to work with out here.
232
00:11:00,794 --> 00:11:03,395
That's a priority
task for tomorrow.
233
00:11:03,397 --> 00:11:09,200
So, our shelter is
listing. It's listing terribly.

I keep sliding towards you.
235
00:11:11,272 --> 00:11:12,271
Okay.
236
00:11:12,273 --> 00:11:14,606
We can switch
positions, if you'd prefer.
237
00:11:14,608 --> 00:11:17,676
No, 'cause then you'll
end up sliding into me.
238

You're good. Stay
there. I'm sitting.

Amanda: I did a
piss-poor job on that bed.
252
00:11:53,046 --> 00:11:54,846
Well, our bed is toast.
253

Yep.
254
00:12:01,254 --> 00:12:03,521
It was freezing cold last night,
255
00:12:03,523 --> 00:12:06,391
so I first and foremost
want to get a fire started
256
00:12:06,393 --> 00:12:09,528
and get working on that so
that we're not having to rely
257
00:12:09,530 --> 00:12:12,464
on body heat to
actually stay warm.

Joshua: I'll keep you swatted.

I'm getting eaten
alive by horse flies.

Josh was trying to bat them
away as I'm working at it.

But we're still
not getting fire.
262
00:12:23,877 --> 00:12:25,777
We're still
struggling with that.
263
00:12:27,214 --> 00:12:28,813
Have you ever started
a fire like this before?
264
00:12:28,815 --> 00:12:30,949
Not this way.
265
00:12:30,951 --> 00:12:34,352
Nor have I.
266
00:12:34,354 --> 00:12:36,221
Yeah, that's super wet. Damn it.
267
00:12:39,693 --> 00:12:41,493
Joshua: Time to hydrate or die.
268
00:12:41,495 --> 00:12:43,428
I really hope there's
water in our well.

00:12:43,430 --> 00:12:45,497
Amanda: For sure.
270
00:12:45,499 --> 00:12:47,532
I see our tape.
271
00:12:50,770 --> 00:12:52,437
Kind of a pivotal moment here.
272
00:12:52,439 --> 00:12:54,706
Joshua: Since we don't
have fire to boil our water,
273
00:12:54,708 --> 00:12:57,175
this well is really important.
274
00:12:57,177 --> 00:12:58,176
Okay.
275
00:12:58,178 --> 00:12:59,378
Ready?
276
00:12:59,380 --> 00:13:01,379
No. I'm scared.
277
00:13:01,381 --> 00:13:03,848
It's a do-or-die moment.

are hurling nuts at us.

They were looking for

these things at us.

They were hitting the

We decided to get out of here
and not linger too much longer.

We seem to be interrupting

for our new shelter,
315
00:14:34,741 --> 00:14:37,409

down, doing straight strips
316
00:14:37,411 --> 00:14:39,210
in an effort to make a blanket
317
00:14:39,212 --> 00:14:42,680
for us to have some
warmth tonight.

I'm gonna put tape going
across back the other way

when I get it done, so that
way, both sides are teal.

in the middle of the night,

00:14:53,026 --> 00:14:55,493
we can have a nice,

701
00:39:04,944 --> 00:39:06,877
[ breathing heavily ]
702
00:39:28,166 --> 00:39:30,133
[ sighs ]
703
00:39:33,639 --> 00:39:35,505
[ engine whirring in distance ]
704
00:39:35,507 --> 00:39:36,706
oh.
705
00:39:36,708 --> 00:39:37,808
Hey!
706
00:39:40,045 --> 00:39:41,979
Hey!
707
00:39:43,649 --> 00:39:45,182
Oh, my word.
708
00:39:47,987 --> 00:39:50,387
Oh, god.
709
00:39:53,058 --> 00:39:55,926
Hey!
710
00:39:58,397 --> 00:40:01,898
I came on this challenge
to confirm in myself
711
00:40:01,900 --> 00:40:03,733
that I am a strong woman
712
00:40:03,735 --> 00:40:08,138
and that I can mentally
overcome immense challenges.
713
00:40:08,140 --> 00:40:10,674
Oh, I did it!
714
00:40:10,676 --> 00:40:13,876
21 days! 16 alone!
715
00:40:13,878 --> 00:40:16,679
The person coming
back from this challenge
716
00:40:16,681 --> 00:40:18,548
is a heck of a lot
more confident
717
00:40:18,550 --> 00:40:20,550
than the person going in,
718
00:40:20,552 --> 00:40:22,685
and I think that my
self-esteem points
719
00:40:22,687 --> 00:40:24,354
get bumped up a little bit.
720
00:40:24,356 --> 00:40:27,491
Whoo-hoo!
721
00:40:27,493 --> 00:40:28,892
People have always asked me,
722
00:40:28,894 --> 00:40:30,761
"what's the craziest
thing you've ever done?"
723
00:40:30,763 --> 00:40:33,563
and now I have a pretty
definitive answer for that.
724
00:40:33,565 --> 00:40:36,033
Aah-ooh!
725
00:40:39,838 --> 00:40:43,240
Narrator: Over the course of
her record-setting survival ordeal,
726
00:40:43,242 --> 00:40:46,776
amanda experienced
significant physical changes.
727
00:40:46,778 --> 00:40:48,979
She lost a total of 21 pounds.
728
00:40:48,981 --> 00:40:51,381
Based on both
survivalist's performance,
729
00:40:51,383 --> 00:40:53,116
their psrs were reassessed.
730
00:40:53,118 --> 00:40:56,786
Josh's unconventional
approach showed some promise,
731
00:40:56,788 --> 00:40:59,789
but his tap out on day 5
drops his psr significantly
732
00:40:59,791 --> 00:41:02,592
from a 6.1 to a 4.3.
733
00:41:02,594 --> 00:41:05,729
After josh's departure,
amanda struggled to secure food
734
00:41:05,731 --> 00:41:07,663
and maintain her
mental composure,
735
00:41:07,665 --> 00:41:09,800
but in the end, showed
incredible fortitude
736
00:41:09,802 --> 00:41:12,135
in making it through to day 21.
737
00:41:12,137 --> 00:41:16,640
As a result, her psr
rises from a 5.8 to a 6.3.
738
00:41:18,877 --> 00:41:22,545
So, finally back
to civilization,
739
00:41:22,547 --> 00:41:26,082
enjoying being back
with my puppies.
740
00:41:26,084 --> 00:41:29,252
But we're still healing
from all of the bug bites.
741
00:41:31,090 --> 00:41:32,221
I quit smoking.
742
00:41:32,223 --> 00:41:35,825
Absolutely still
regret tapping out,
743
00:41:35,827 --> 00:41:38,428
even though I know
it was for the best.
744
00:41:38,430 --> 00:41:41,098
But I can do it.
745
00:41:41,100 --> 00:41:42,966
I will do it.
746
00:41:42,968 --> 00:41:45,102
And I would love the
chance to try again.
747
00:41:45,104 --> 00:41:49,105
Narrator: In the end, amanda overcame
the swampy jungles of nicaragua
748
00:41:49,107 --> 00:41:51,441
and proved she has what
it takes to survive alone
749
00:41:51,443 --> 00:41:53,510
longer than anyone before her...
750
00:41:53,512 --> 00:41:55,245
Amanda: Aah-ooh!
751
00:41:55,247 --> 00:41:58,582
Narrator: ...Naked and afraid.
