phaedra: Ever since
I got up this morning,

I haven't felt well,

and it's just getting
increasingly worse,

so it's making it really
difficult to function.

[ crunching ]

hey, are you all right? Phaedra?

[ vomiting ]

narrator: In the world's
harshest environments...

Two experienced survivalists

put their skills to
the ultimate test

without food, water, or clothes.

[ crying ]

[ grunting ]

narrator: Now, in the
shadow of the himalayas

in northern india,

these strangers
have to work together

to survive for 21 days...

Phaedra: I seriously
don't feel like I can go on.

Hakim: My first impression
of india was, first off, "wow."

this is an amazing place.

This is really happening,
and I'm just really excited.

My name is hakim isler.

I teach to-shin do
ninja martial arts.

I'm also an iraqi war veteran.

As I'm looking around
and I'm feeling the weather,

I'm gonna need some
way to stay warm,

'cause it's pretty
cool right now.

I have fire skills,
shelter-building skills,

hunting skills,
and stalking skills,

but even more so,

I'm a practitioner of
the ninja martial arts.

And the word "ninja" itself --

it actually means
"one who endures,

one who perseveres."

I'm secure in my skills.

I'm secure in who I am.

You know, I don't
have many doubts.

I was born with what it takes.

Feeling a little anxious,
but it's beautiful.

I've never seen
anything like it before.

The wilderness
is just incredible.

My name is phaedra,

and I have basically
had to be a survivalist

since the day I was born.

My father raised
us off the grid.

We lived in communes,
nudist camps.

I definitely know
how to live in nature,

and nudity's not going
to be an issue for me.

I'm kind of sad that
we're climbing higher.

It means it's gonna be
that much colder. [ laughs ]

narrator: Hakim and
phaedra are being inserted

into the northern
indian district of kumaon

in the steep,
pine-covered foothills

of the himalayan mountains.

Frigid air from the
himalayan ice fields

unleashes storms far below,

bringing nighttime
temperatures well into the 50s.

The hazardous hillsides

are populated by
asiatic black bears,

deadly leopards, and
the dreaded carpet viper,

whose hemotoxic
venom is responsible

for the highest number of
snakebite deaths in the world.

Phaedra: Growing
up the way I did

was difficult for
a lot of reasons.

The people around me were
definitely not very supportive

of me, and when I was
15, I left that all behind.

And ever since then,

I've been searching
for my place in the world

and my -- for,
really, my self-worth.

And my hope is that,
completing this challenge,

I'll be able to find that.

Okay, so, the adventure
begins. Here we go.

My skills as a ninja are gonna
apply to the survival challenge,

very simply because I
have what I call "ninjanuity,"

ability to adapt and overcome

and to see things
for what they truly are

and to make
adjustments on the fly.

Ninjanuity time.

My nickname is "black macgyver."

I'm always inventing.

I'm always creating new
ways to, you know, do things.

And so people just
started calling me --

"man, you're like
the black macgyver.

You're always coming up

with something very
inventive and very unique."

this is what makes
ninjas special.

Hi. Hi.

I'm phaedra. My name's hakim.

It's nice to meet you finally.

Yeah, absolutely. [ laughs ]

very exciting. Very exciting.

You ready to have
an adventure together?

Absolutely.

Right on. Well,
good. Absolutely.

I see we have our
items over here,

so I would like to
see what you brought.

[ laughs ] absolutely.

I tested a lot of
different fire starters,

and this one's the [bleep]

yes.

So we're definitely
gonna stay warm tonight.

So, the tool that I
brought is my hatchet.

This item is actually
something I created.

You have a skinning blade.
You have a saw at the top.

Sounds like a badass tool.

I'm pretty excited
that you brought it.

That's awesome.
That's really, really cool.

Okay, and here's
our map. Here we go.

Looks like we're right
about -- right around here.

So...Looks like that's
where we want to be.

Narrator: Starting
at 4,500 feet,

hakim and phaedra will aim
for gullies 2,000 feet above.

There, they hope to
find a water source

where they can make their camp.

But the higher they climb,
the air becomes thinner,

making breathing more difficult

and accelerating the
effects of dehydration.

I'm gonna have to go a
little bit slower up this hill,

'cause I'm feeling [sighs]

okay.

[ breathing sharply ]

all right. I'll be okay.

Just need to get my
heart rate back down.

Just one second.

Phaedra: The
dehydration issue is huge,

and I'm starting to get
a pretty bad headache,

which starts messing with your
ability to make good choices,

so, just got to pace myself.

Should we head?

Whenever you're ready.

Yes. Yes. Okay.

Location-wise,
building the shelter,

do you want to build it

where the sun is going
to hit first in the morning,

or do you want it
on the other side?

What do you think?

It's probably gonna be best

wherever the sun's
gonna come first.

That's what I was thinking, too.

I see so much pine over here,

so many resources for us

to build our shelter
right in this spot.

Um...

We're just running out of time,

and it's, like, freaking me
out a little bit, to be honest.

I'm with you.

I want to get that fire started.

I want to get -- I don't --

we still have to gather, like,
a [bleep] ton of wood, so...

Even if we can't
get a fire tonight,

the shelter, I think,
is our best bet.

Hmm.

Okay. Let's get
this started, then.

All right. All right.

Lift it up and drive it back.

Hakim: The shelter
is what I believe in,

and it's what I know that
can really take care of us

in the long run.

Okay.

There's a lot of gaps in there.

It's actually not
too bad, really.

Phaedra: The
shelter is sufficient.

I'm gonna start on the fire,
and I'm gonna get it going,

and hopefully keep it
going throughout the night.

No, this means everything.
This means life. [ laughs ]

this means we don't freeze
to death tonight...Hopefully.

Narrator: The
temperature at the camp

is around 25 degrees
less than at sea level.

Phaedra and hakim must
maintain the fire through the night.

Even though we did what we could

in the time that we could to
get the shelter built and cozy,

the temperatures are dropping.

There's just no sleep to be had.

Narrator: Already feeling

the accelerated
effects of dehydration,

phaedra and hakim
follow a stream uphill

from their campsite

in hopes of locating
fresh, drinkable water

at its source point.

Before you go
trekking any further,

can you see
anything in eyesight?

We're getting closer
to the source, I think.

You think?

I just don't want you to expend

any more calories and energy

going in a direction that
may or may not benefit us.

Think we should
explore that up there?

It's coming down off
the rocks pretty good.

I think that, if you want to
get some water from up there,

have at it.

You're not gonna do it?

I'm not going there. Okay.

But I'll be here,
waiting for you.

Hakim: Water from
a running stream --

that's not my first option.

It's just a recipe for disaster.

Narrator: Drinking the stream
water is a calculated risk.

It could contain bacteria

or parasites that
can cause dysentery

and other deadly
intestinal diseases.

The only safe way to procure
drinking water is to boil it.

Be careful. Okay.

Phaedra: At this point,
to be honest with you,

I just need water in me.

I don't have time to filter
this or boil it or anything.

I'm to the point of
dehydration that's not safe.

Hakim: She took a judgment call

and drank from
that water source.

I might get sick. [ sighs ]

okay.

Worst-case scenario
is she can't go on --

she can't continue today,

and she can't continue
with the challenge,

the adventure.

I can't make it back right now.

I really can't.

And I really feel like
you probably should go.

I just want to make
sure that, as your partner,

that I stay with you.

I don't want to stop you

from getting things
accomplished.

I just need, you know,
20 minutes or something.

I feel like we're a team,

and so I got to
be here for her --

leave no woman behind.

But I definitely want
to respect her wishes,

because if she's
not wanting me there,

then I'm actually adding
stress to the situation.

And so it's just better
if I do something

that's gonna help the team.

It's absolutely critical

that we have somewhere
warm for her to be at tonight,

and so I'm gonna work my hardest

to make sure that
that's there for her.

My main purpose in
life is to help others.

That's why I exist.

It's no strange coincidence

that I'd be here
with a partner...

That needs me...

Because it's what
I was born for.

Hey, partner!

[ breathing sharply ]

[ phaedra vomiting ]

so, my partner's been sick.

It's really sad.

[ phaedra retching ]

and we're hoping that she
can make it through this night.

There's something wrong with me.

Like, I don't know what it is.

[ vomiting ]

are you gonna be all right?

I just -- I seriously don't
feel like I can go on.

[ moans ]

I feel like you should
really consider tapping out.

Okay, I take my fire starter,
and you can go [bleep] yourself.

[ vomiting ]

are you gonna be all right?

I just -- I seriously don't
feel like I can go on. [ moans ]

narrator: Just two days

into their three-week
survival challenge,

phaedra's decision to drink

from a potentially
contaminated water source

has put her health and the
success of the team at risk.

Hey, partner!

[ vomiting ]

before they began,

experts in primitive survival
and special forces training

assessed their
skills, experience,

and mental strength

and assigned them a
primitive survival rating,

or psr.

Based on the technical skills

and leadership training
he gained in the military,

hakim was given an upper
intermediate psr score of 6.8.

Although self-taught,

phaedra's mastery of
essential survival skills,

especially fire-building,

earned her an
initial score of 6.2,

but her impulsive
decision-making

may affect more than her score.

If her condition worsens,
she may be forced to tap out,

and hakim would have to attempt

to finish the 21-day
challenge alone.

Phaedra: At this point,

I'm not feeling very
proud of myself.

I just have so much more
to offer than what I've shown.

I am so much stronger.

Hakim: I feel like we're a team,

so I got to be here for her.

So I'm digging a hole

to see if the water
will filter through.

All this sand and rock
-- if it filters properly,

it may pull out
any of the big stuff

that'll do some damage to me.

Narrator: The sand and rock
from the riverbed contain carbon,

a natural filter that
will hopefully remove

any of the impurities
from the water.

Is that well, do you think,
okay for me to drink out of yet?

I drank out of it. Okay.

Replacing the fluids phaedra
has lost due to vomiting

will be essential in
her ability to recover.

How are things going?

They're going.

Yeah? Yeah.

So, right now, you're
rebuilding the shelter.

And then, I assume we don't
have any firewood yet, right?

There's no firewood.
No. No firewood.

If we can gather two
hours' worth of firewood

at the end of
building this thing,

then I think we'll
be good to go.

So you feel like we can
survive the night without a fire?

Absolutely.

I don't know if I feel that way

based on how cold
we were last night.

I have personal experience
being in 18-degree weather

in a debris hut and
being super toasty.

Being up for another full night,

trying to stoke the fire is --
we just can't have that again.

Okay.

It's fine. I'm fine doing it.

I just...

As this is kind of progressing,
there's a pattern starting,

probably because of
me in a lot of ways --

the fact that I am allowing
him to make all the shots,

and I'm just real
angry about it.

Hakim: When it's
something that she wants,

she goes all-out, gets it done.

But if I'm saying that, "hey,
here's what I think we need,"

then she has to take a rest.

Then she'll do some
work for 30 minutes,

and then she'll feel sick again.

And so that's when I
feel really frustrated.

These nights have
been challenging.

It's been unseasonably
cold in india.

I'm really worried that...

I won't be able to stay
warm enough tonight.

Oh, damn.

[ birds chirping ]

so, my partner's been sick

for the first four days
that we've been here.

Ohh.

And she doesn't
want to -- I know that.

But right now she needs to be
getting some medical attention.

Narrator: Concerned that
phaedra's persistent vomiting

and diarrhea could be signs
of a serious intestinal infection,

producers intervene and send
in medics to assess her condition.

She is diagnosed with dysentery,

for which no
treatment is necessary,

and she's allowed to
continue with the challenge

if she chooses.

How you doing?

Let's see if we
can talk a little bit.

Um...

Talking about
yesterday, specifically,

you were down, and
then you were up,

and then you went down again.

I feel like you should
really consider tapping out.

I'm fine. It's not
ever gonna happen.

I'm leaving here on day 21.

And how does that
work for us as a team?

Do you want me --

okay, so how does that
work for us as a team?

Think about this --

if I were to leave,

how would you like to
stay here by yourself?

I wouldn't, but
it's not about me.

You are physically ill.

When somebody can't
keep any fluid down

and they're not
even eating food,

it's coming out of both ends --

you're crapping everywhere.

No, I am not.

I am taking care
of that stuff, okay?

I have been cleaning that up,

and I've been
doing the best I can.

I didn't just leave
that stuff around.

It's not about you
leaving it around --

I'm not talking about that.

I'm talking about you
and what's happening.

I mean, this is a bad scenario.

I don't say, "I can't do this,"

until I am dragging
myself across the ground.

[ voice breaking ]
but until that happens,

the thought of going home,

knowing that I
could accomplish this

is completely unbearable,

and it would ruin me
for the rest of my life.

[ crying ] like, I can't --

I can't go home.

I feel like you should
really consider tapping out.

[ voice breaking ] the
thought of going home,

knowing that I
could accomplish this

is completely unbearable.

[ crying ] I can't go home

knowing that I
could have done this.

It's really a not
nice thing to do

to try and make someone feel bad

because they had
a major sickness

out here and had
no control over that.

And I don't know
why he would do that.

I can honestly say I think

that he's never had to
care for anyone but himself,

and he doesn't
know how to do it.

Hakim: Empathy is, in
the spectrum of a ninja,

is very important --

to be able to feel what
that person is going through.

But if that starts
to destroy you,

that could put you
in a really tight spot.

And so you can't
really be a protector

if your own personal
being is being degraded.

Narrator: Every freezing night is
making hakim and phaedra weaker.

Without food,
they are struggling.

Hakim continues to
improve the shelter,

while phaedra focuses
her limited energies on fire.

How you feeling?

[ shivering ] really cold.
I want to get this started.

Okay. What's your --

what can you help
me with right now?

I can help by building a fire.

All right. Got it.

Phaedra: I do have
very strong opinions

when it comes to
male/female roles,

and I don't deal well with
being put in a box as a female.

He's been bossing
the whole time,

and it's really annoying.

Hakim: I am frustrated because
there is so much to be done.

There is a time when a person
goes from being a possible asset

to a hindrance, somebody
who's holding you back.

So, I feel like we haven't
really been a team.

And so I really wanted
to take an opportunity

to ask you what you think
could improve that scenario,

that position.

Do you really want to
know my honest opinion?

Absolutely.

'cause I don't think
you're gonna like it.

Okay. [ chuckles ]

[ blows ]

I really don't feel like
you care about me at all.

Truthfully, I don't.

And obviously --

this is sad. This is really sad.

You're telling me that
I don't care about you.

I've been doing
as much as I can.

You do not care about me.

I think that's
what's happening is

that you're like
some sort of princess

and you're just used
to -- oh, my [bleep] god.

Did you just say I'm
some sort of princess?

I did, and I'm sorry.
Don't talk to me.

You've been down
for almost five days.

You haven't done anything
because you've been down.

I've been collecting rocks.

I've been collecting
firewood for you.

I've been building the shelter.

Yes, you are so amazing.
I'm so proud of you.

I don't need you to tell
me that I'm amazing.

No, no, no. You do. You do.

I don't even need you
to acknowledge me.

I'm not gonna respond
to anything else you say.

I am gonna be successful,

and I do not need
you to do that.

If you can do your
thing all by yourself,

I'm just gonna
stay in my shelter,

and you can stay
out here by fire.

Oh, your shelter?

What have you done on
there, besides lasso some stuff?

[ scoffs ] what have you done?

I am proud of all the
things that I have done --

I don't care if
you're proud about it.

Don't interrupt what I'm
[bleep] saying right now.

There we go again.
Don't interrupt me.

You're cursing at
me. You know what?

This conversation is
seriously over. We're done.

When it rains tonight,
where are you gonna stay?

In my side of the shelter.

You don't have a
side of the shelter.

You didn't build the shelter.

So you're gonna kick -- oh.

Okay, I take my fire starter,

and you can go [bleep] yourself.

How about that? See ya.

How about that?

I can actually make
a bow and drill.

Of course you can.

Hakim: Me and my partner --

we have two different opinions
on, I guess, life in general.

And I don't think surviving
is really the issue here.

You know, we can survive --

it's just a matter of
really surviving together.

Phaedra: I learned a long time
ago showing signs of weakness

is a disappointment,

and I'm looked at
as a pathetic woman.

You know, I told myself
many a times that no one,

especially another man,

would ever do something
like that to me again,

and it definitely triggers
that response of panic for me

and makes me act irrational,

and it's embarrassing, so...

So, today, I obviously wasn't
acting [chuckles] very nice,

and I feel really
bad about that.

I realize that you were,
like, doing your very best

and you've been working all day.

And not only that,

but you were very
concerned about me,

and that's an amazing
quality of yours.

Anyway, the way that [chuckles]

I acted is totally
inappropriate, so I'm sorry.

Thank you. I'm sorry, too.

Everything's cool
between us. [ chuckles ]

if you're still cool. [ laughs ]

I am. Yeah? Okay.

[ birds chirping ]

[ groans ]

phaedra: How's
the sun treating you?

Oh, it's treating me
good. I really needed this.

I know, right? Yeah.

Narrator: After seven
nights at high altitude,

hakim and phaedra's shelter

has yet to provide
the warmth needed

to protect them

from the hypothermic
nighttime temperatures.

What do you think about
bringing a little fire inside?

Like a fireplace? Okay.

So, you want your
fire pit like that.

I agree.

The decision to start a
new shelter from scratch

is a risky one.

They must work
quickly to finish it

or face a night completely
exposed to the elements.

Other than these four,

how many more
you got over there?

I don't know --
three, maybe, four.

Hakim: We're actually doing
slats of wood as our wall,

and then we're gonna put
some mud and dirt over that

to help us keep the wind out.

We're going to build a fire pit

right on the side
of the shelter.

I'm trying to squeeze
in all the cracks,

make sure it's as
stable as possible

so we can have a good fire.

Now, that's a fireplace.

Hopefully. We'll
see what happens.

I know we were talking
about eating food today.

[ chuckles ]

do you feel like
doing crab hunting?

Is that... Yeah, definitely.

I want some crabs. [ chuckles ]

damn it. Damn. I can't see.

With our shelter,

I think we have some of the
main things now to be comfortable,

but we haven't had a lot to
eat since we've been here,

and I'd like nothing better
than to christen this stove

with a hot meal.

[bleep]

this guy may be
more ninja than me.

[bleep]

phaedra: Which
direction did he go?

Yeah, he's right
here in this area,

and I can't -- there he is.

Where? Right there.

Nice.

Look at you --
princess of the forest.

Narrator: A crab of this size

contains, at most, an
ounce and a half of meat.

If they share it,

it will yield only
about 20 calories

and 4 grams of protein each.

We're about to cook up some
crabs that we found today --

cooking them on a hot stone.

It's been from my
experience that,

if you share food
together with one another,

it actually, I mean,
brings us together

and makes us get
along a lot better.

You have skills, man.

Good night.

Phaedra: I'm so
dehydrated right now.

We didn't -- haven't
eaten for days.

[ thunder crashing ]

it's not like a
regular rainstorm.

It's like death.

Hakim: It's cold out here.

Oh, damn, it's cold.

Narrator: After 12
days of struggle,

hakim and phaedra
have finally built a shelter

strong enough to protect
them from the extreme cold

of northern india,

but they have subsisted on
very limited amounts of food.

[ gags ]

oh, it was swimming
down my throat.

[ chuckles ]

you okay?

It was fighting you
all the way down, huh?

Mm-hmm.

[ laughs ]

narrator: Over the
next three days,

they focus their full attention

on hunting and
foraging for food.

See if I see
anything on this ridge.

The longer they go

without a more significant
source of protein,

the weaker their
bodies will become.

[ bird squawking ]

damn it!

Well, it was worth a shot.

[ both laugh ]

hakim: [ chuckles ] yeah.

Right?

Ew.

You can see my chest
bone. Do you see that?

Yeah.

[ thunder rumbling ]

here comes the rain, people.

At least we have fire,
so that's a positive.

Here's hakim sleeping --
or trying, anyway, at least.

He's smiling. [ laughs ]

must be having good
dreams of cheeseburgers.

Oh, dang.

Looks like we got
ourselves a dead bird.

Kind of slightly disturbing,
'cause I just drank right there.

Hey, hakim!

Yeah?

I found your breakfast.

You what?

I said I found your breakfast!

I'm looking for you.

I'm down by the water hole!

Narrator: The meat of
this red-billed blue magpie

would provide about
250 calories each,

but it could also
contain diseases,

such as avian/bird
flu or encephalitis.

Phaedra: Birds really
carry so many diseases.

[ chuckling ] they really
-- I mean, if they're dead,

there's something bad
that happened to them.

I say we go back to
the hut and start a fire,

cook it, eat it, and then
we move on with our day.

I just don't want
to get sick again.

One week out.

Dude, me neither, but
we do need the energy.

All you can use is, you know,
your logic and your deduction.

And you know, you
look at it. You touch it.

You see, you know,
how old it looks,

and then you want to make a
determination based off that.

Maybe I'll take each wing

and make a little
bra for myself with it.

[ laughs ]

one bra? [ laughs ]

hakim: In a time like this,

where we've gone days without
really having any type of meal,

it's only so long we're
gonna be able to survive

without eating some
sort of substance.

I really don't want
to eat this thing,

but at the same
time, I really do.

Oh, don't worry about it.

I'll eat it for both of us.

I know you will. [ chuckles ]

no, you need
to eat it, for real,

'cause extraction
day -- I will carry you,

but I will definitely
not be happy,

no, nobody's carrying
me. I'm walking.

Phaedra: I need food.

I can eat a handful of
worms every day. [ chuckles ]

but, you know, it's,
like, sizzling on the fire,

and I'm like, "[bleep]
I'm eating this damn bird,"

and I'm eating it.

The amount of meat
that's on this is huge.

Yeah. I'm looking at it.

There you go. Cheers.

Might be [bleep]
our brains out tonight.

[ laughs ]

what do you think? Is it cooked?

There's a little
bit of red in there,

but it looks pretty cooked.

[ birds cawing ]

okay, this is [bleep]
good. [ laughs ]

[ laughs ]

[ thunder crashing ]

so, it looks as if it might
have a storm today.

I was thinking we would
have a little bit more time,

but it's looking like
that's not the case.

Narrator: A powerful cold front

has suddenly moved
in from the north,

bringing winds over
30 miles per hour

and the first serious test of
the survivalists' new shelter.

[ thunder crashing ]

you can hear, in the
background, major thunderstorms.

We gathered as much
firewood as we could,

and now we've just
kind of hunkered down,

and we're trying to stay warm.

I don't feel like our shelter
is ready for a storm at all.

It's not like a
regular rainstorm.

It's like death.

Narrator: 16 days into their
3-week survival challenge

in the himalayan
foothills of northern india,

hakim and phaedra's initial
primitive survival ratings,

or psrs, are being affected
by their performance.

Phaedra's sickness from
drinking untreated water

has slowed her
down significantly,

putting great strain
on her teammate.

Hakim has demonstrated
great work ethic,

but struggled to control
his frustrations early on.

Despite their troubles,

both contributed equally
to their impressive shelter,

which will raise their scores,

but only if they're able to
survive the current storm

and make it to their
extraction on day 21.

Narrator: For the
last three days,

a brutal storm has
forced hakim and phaedra

to bunker down in their shelter,

unable to venture out for food.

Phaedra: It's not like
a regular rainstorm.

It's like death.

[ thunder crashing ]

I'm so dehydrated right now.

We haven't eaten for days.

[ thunder crashing ]

we're just trying to
keep the fire going,

keep it warm in here.

[ thunder crashing ]

narrator: Beaten down,
exhausted, and starving,

they are one day away from
a demanding extraction hike

back down the mountainside.

Phaedra: I feel
really exhausted.

Like, I feel this, like --

like, it's hard for
me to just function.

Mentally, I'm,
like, not, you know,

running on all cylinders.

Hakim: I'm really exhausted.

But...

Making sure I'm
there for my partner

so she can get some sleep.

We got a long trek
ahead of us tomorrow --

make sure that she can do it.

Try to live up to my ninja code.

Black macgyver out.

Physically exhausted. I'm tired.

[ phaedra vomiting ]

she's curled up.

Hey, are you all right?

[ groans ]

narrator: Phaedra's dysentery
has flared up once again.

The timing could not be worse.

Phaedra, what's going on?

Hakim: I'm definitely
worried about her.

I've been worried
about her since day 1.

What -- what are you feeling?

I feel nauseous.
It's just I feel sick.

It's okay.

It's not okay.

Hakim: She can't
keep water down --

that means that she's
gonna be severely dehydrated

trying to make this trek.

How you feeling?

I'm not so nauseous
anymore, so that's good.

Phaedra: The hike out's
gonna be kind of difficult

because I woke up feeling
good, but as soon as I get up,

I start feeling really sick.

Um, I just...

I think I'm gonna throw
up. Hold on one second.

Hakim: I may have to put
her arm around my shoulder

or over my shoulder and just --

you know, we just take
it one rock at a time,

trying to get
down to extraction.

To be a part of her
experience of winning --

that would be priceless.

Mentally, I'm there.
I'm ready to go.

I'm ready to get out of here.

Narrator: To reach
their extraction point,

hakim and phaedra must
descend 2,000 feet in elevation

over a distance of 5 miles

through treacherous
streams and ravines

to a road where they'll be
rescued by a land vehicle.

Phaedra, give me a
second. [ chuckles ]

let's move together.

Take your time.
We're not in a rush.

You okay?

Yeah.

[ shivering ]

damn, I'm getting
so cold right now.

[ blows ]

I need warmth.

I need hydration.

It's crippling me.

All my limbs are just,
like, freezing right now.

Gonna take a little
second. Hold on.

Okay.

Take your time.

You just keep being
an inspiration, phaedra.

The reality is I have
what it takes to do this.

My body has it. It's in there.

I just have to find it.

Okay.

Okay. Let's go.

All right, you can do
this. You're doing great.

[ breathes sharply ]

I'm feeling kind of
sick, but I'll be fine.

I just -- I just
need to get there.

Just be careful around here.

Oh! Watch it.

Be really careful.

The moss is really
slippery over here.

Hakim: Okay.

I don't feel like I have
much more in me, actually.

Oh, you got way more, phaedra.

We're gonna finish
this thing together.

You okay?

Yeah.

Be really careful. That's
a really slippery slope.

Hakim: There is a special power
that I acknowledge in my partner.

I think I'm okay.

There's a person inside
of her that does not quit,

that does not give up.

Look at what that is up ahead.

Looks like a road.

Oh, my god.

Yeah.

I hear a car.

You do? Yeah.

Do you hear it?

Go for it, girl. Go for it.

[ horn honking ]

hey!

Hakim: She thought she was
strong enough to do it without me.

I thought that I'm strong
enough to do it without her.

But...We weren't.

We had to do it together.

Teamwork is the primary reason

that we crossed
that finish line today.

She will take a knee, I'll
pull out my ninja sword,

and I will knight
her. [ chuckles ]

she will be an honorary ninja.

We're going home
with the chickens!

[ laughs ] these
are gonna get eaten.

I came into this hoping
for a change inside myself,

hoping to find that
self-confidence,

and I-I truly have.

I saw a really ugly
side of myself out here,

but I also saw a
positive side of myself.

And I saw that I can be a
strong, independent woman

without losing my
temper or being angry.

And even though we
had our differences,

in the end, I could trust hakim
and he did have my back.

And there's no way
I could do this alone.

Hell, yeah!

[ laughs ] we did it!

Narrator: Over the course of
the three weeks in northern india,

the physical transformation

experienced by the
survivalists was dramatic.

Phaedra lost a
total of 22 pounds,

while hakim lost 36 pounds.

Hakim showed
impressive skills throughout,

and despite an early conflict,

proved to be a very dependable
and supportive teammate.

Phaedra's risky decision
and subsequent sickness

put a strain on the team,

but she showed
incredible fortitude

to get through the 21 days.

As a result, hakim's score
improved from a 6.8 to a 7.4,

and phaedra's psr
improves from a 6.2 to a 6.9.

First time brushing
my teeth in 21 days!

Narrator: After a few
days recuperating in india,

both survivalists are now
home and back to full health.

This has to go.

Just at the doctor's office to
get some blood work done.

But, you know, overall,
I feel really great.

I'm getting my weight back
up, about to eat some ribs.

Narrator: They
resolved their differences

and worked together to
take on the extremes of india.

Working as a team enabled them

to pool their skills
and experience,

thus proving they can survive...

Mmm!

That's good. [ laughs ]
