All language subtitles for Alone S08E01 - The Hunted

Narrator: In "Alone's"
most terrifying location yet,

ten participants face
the deadliest predator

in North America.

- There he is, right there.
- Grizzly bears.

- Hey, bear!
- Got a lot of grizzlies here.

I'm going to have
to live with them.

- Go on, get!

- Every second we're on
the land, we're being hunted.

- Holy [bleep],
a mountain lion.

- He's circling
around my shelter.

Narrator:
Bone-chilling cold...

- Winter is coming.

- When you combine the wind
with the rain and the cold,

this place could make
the Arctic look easy.

- Ah, [bleep].

Narrator:
And complete isolation.

- You cannot hide
from yourself,

mentally and emotionally.

- Ah!

- There's no place to go.

- I am suffering
from loneliness.

Narrator: Who will survive?

- Yes! Yes!

- This could be the end.

- 1 don't want it to tap, but
1 don't want 10 die either.

- You have to suffer
before you can succeed.

Narrator: The last one
standing wins.

- AL what point do
1 push the button?

- This land is as wild
as any in North America.

Chilko Lake
is extremely rugged.

Landslides, rockslides,
fires, winds,

cold, hypothermia, snow.

I mean like, there's a reason
no one lives out here.

- Bye-bye, people.
I am alone.

- The higher elevation
is going to be a huge factor.

We're going to have to deal
with subzero temperatures,

heavy snowfall,
and extreme winds.

- It has officially begun.

[bleep] crazy.

- You're not at the top
of the food chain here.

Black bears, cougar,
wolves, moose,

but then the big one
is grizzlies.

1 mean, if you come up
on a grizzly,

the next thing you know,
you're in a world of hurt.

- The Chilko region
is @ massive,

salmon-spawning ground,

and there is just tons
of grizzly bears.

- Bear tracks, definitely
within the last 24 hours.

So they're out there.

- "Alone" is
the ultimate benchmark.

With nothing
but ten permitted items,

we have to build a life
and survive,

- 1 don't think there's
anything more real

than what we're about to do.
It's all on me.

It's just me and the wild.

- Everybody is here because
they have the physical skills,

but in survival, it's mental,

- There goes my last contact.

Holy [bleep].

It's on.

My heart is beating.

1 am so excited.

Day one, minute one.

And so it begins.
[laughs]

Holy crap.
I'm on "Alone."

It's hard to believe.

It almost brings tears
to my eyes.

I'm so glad to be here.

My girlfriend, Brittany,
and my kids

have sacrificed so much

50 that 1 can come here
and do this.

1 won't waste their sacrifice,.

- So 1 found me
some coyote tracks,

wanted to show you
what they look like.

I've been doing this kind
of stuff since I was born.

When most kids were riding
skateboards,

me and my brother
were sneaking off

to the neighbor's pond
to catch fish.

Wyoming
white-tailed jackrabbit.

My strongest skill set
is big game hunting.

I've been hunting bears
for quite some time.

1 think 1 can safely say
1 have more experience

with bears than anybody
on this season.

Looking pretty mean.

You need to respect them,
but you cannot fear them.

If you fear a grizzly,
they're going to know it,

and that never works
in your favor.

- Hey.
- [giggles]

- The reason I'm doing this
is for the money.

I've got an eight-year-old
daughter that I adopted.

1 have a great girlfriend.
She has a son of her own,

and we have identical
twin girls together.

That money is going to
allow me to spend more time

with my children.

It is going to be
a very tough season,

but my number one goal
is to win,

and there's nothing out there
1 can't overcome.

Shelter, hunting and fishing.
Those are my three goals.

If I can do those
three successfully,

then all I have to do
is overcome the loneliness,

and I'll succeed.

I'm not going to do
too much more exploring.

I've got to start thinking
about dinner.

I've seen two grouse.

I've got to find me
a good throwing stick,

in case 1 come across
another one of them.

1 want 10 do it better
than anybody has in the past,

110 days plus.

To win this thing,
you need willpower

because the suck
is definitely coming,

and the only way
you're going to get through it

is with enough willpower.

Look at this.

That's bear.

This is grizzly central.
Every log I look at,

every round log
has been torn into.

The bears tear into it
looking for food.

We are in one of the highest
grizzly bear populations

in North America.
It's not a matter of if.

I know I'm going
to encounter grizzlies here.

Shelter is a big priority.

1 don't not want to spend
too many nights

with this number of grizzlies

without a shelter
that can semi-keep them out.

That's definitely
a grizzly bear.

One.

It's pretty damn fresh.

Not a good sign.

A grizzly bear
is capable of consuming you.

He can just simply end you,

and it can happen
in a split second.

It just hit me
how alone I really am.

- Got a little game trail
coming down this way,

running right down the middle
of this little ridge.

I'm not looking for anything
in particular.

Tm just looking to see
what 1 have to work with.

You always hope that you
get lucky with a site,

but it doesn't do any good
to hope for the best.

You have what you have,
and that's what you're going

to have for the rest
of the time you're here.

Ooh, look at that.
Nice.

The first forage.

Putting food on the table
is my primary concern.

My body type is not built
to hold weight.

The weight that I've put on
is going to fall off quickly,

and once that happens, I'm not
going to have those reserves.

So it's going to be
very important

that 1 know the plants,

that 1 can hunt all the birds,
grouse,

and that I'm able
to catch enough fish.

Pretty good haul.

I'm under no illusions

that it's going to be easy
to be out here alone.

It's going to be
the most difficult thing

I've ever attempted
in my life.

- Whoa! Dad's got it.
- Yes.

- I was a wildlife
[indistinct] for ten years.

I've trapped every animal
in Idaho.

You can't learn that stuff
from a book.

That's experience.
That's what 1 bring.

I'm primarily a video creator
with a focus on primitive

and traditional archery.

Bow building is my passion.
Deadly.

1 want 10 do this because

it's a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity.

I don't feel like I need
to provide anything to anyone.

This is for me.

There's things that you can
only learn about yourself

when you face challenges
like this.

Whoo!

That's what
I'm looking forward to.

My family is the biggest thing
that I'm going to miss,

but for me, the way to them
is through this thing.

The prize money
would be great.

We could set up a couple
of college funds for the kids,

and it'd pay off our house.

This will be far longer than
I've ever been gone before,

and as time goes on, it's just
I'm going to want to see them.

But 1 can't imagine a scenario

that's going to cause me
to tap that button.

- Bye, Dad.

- 1 haven't found anything
that...

Looks like a place
that I would want to hunt.

This stuff is just thick
and uninviting.

Ah, [bleep].
Some grouse.

Dinner!

Beautiful birds.

The thing that separates
the people

that are gonna tap early

from the people
that stay out here

is fortitude, mental toughness

because it's going to
get hard.

The people that go out
thinking that they have

it all figured out,

that have a huge ego
about what they can do,

good luck

because you're going
to get humbled.

It looks like a fine meal
in the making right there.

Being in grizzly country
is definitely going to affect

the way that 1 do everything.

1 have to maintain
a separate cook site

because if a bear
starts associating

food with the place
that you're living,

you're going to have problems,

but 1 don't live my life

in fear of things
that might happen.

When I'm out there
and something comes up,

I'll deal with it.

The [bleep] was that?

Got me all jumpy.

Holy [bleep].

Mountain lion.
[whispering] Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

- [whispering] Oh, my God.

That is a [bleep]
mountain lion.

Damn it.

AR, 1 thought 1 could
get him Yo tree.

That was freaking awesome.

Holy [bleep].

That was a mistake.

I tried to slip back
to my tent and get my bow,

and when 1 did that,

he took that
as an opportunity to leave.

What 1 should have done
was rushed him right then,

and he'd went up a tree and
1 could have killed that cat.

Man, that was cool.

1 hope 1 see him again
with my bow in my hand.

God dang it.

- Freaking awesome.
I'm ready.

Get out of here!

There they go.
There they go.

They're going.

Super crazy.

First impressions:
really freaking beautiful.

My baggage over here.

All right.
Let's get started.

During boot camp,
they talk about drop shock,

and 1 get it
1getit.

Definitely crazy.
[chuckles]

Whoa.

Yeah!

Look at that right there.

It is a little bull moose.

That's freaking cool.

They look like a log,
like a branchy log,

and then it turned its head,

and 1 thought it was like
a bird flapping wings.

But it's a freaking moose.

That is such a sweet greeting.

I'm so pumped.
Home.

1 am officially home.

I live in St. Croix,

beautiful sunny
U.S. Virgin Islands.

There's never a day
where 1 can't go to the beach.

My wife and 1
teach primitive skills.

When 1 first started getting
into these primitive skills,

it was immediately like,

"Oh, this is the rest
of my life,"

and it was something
that 1 put myself in entirely.

I lived in a primitive shelter

for seven years
through the winters.

1 spent an entire year
using nothing but stone tools

as my cutting implement.

1 understand how to exchange
the modern distractions

for the ability to listen.

When you're successful
at a challenge like this,

it's because you're listening.
It's because you're open.

You're not trying to force
your ideas on things.

I see this in a lot of ways
as a vision quest.

1 want to reach
deep inside myself

and see what else is there
and to evolve.

It never gets old.

You ready for daddy
to go or no?

- No.

- Mommy, you ready
for daddy to leave?

- No.?

- Daddy, you ready to leave?

No, not really,
but you know what?

Daddy will never feel
ready to leave.

1 want this experience
to change me.

I'm excited to see how 1 deal
with the hardships

because 1 have the skill set,

and 1 have the mentality
that can do it.

1 knew it was taking
a huge chance

not bringing a fire striker,
like, enormous chance.

Feeling a little defeated
because it's not there.

But I've been doing
primitive fire-making

for more than 20 years now.

That's something that 1 feel
confident enough in,

and then that's gonna
save me the extra item

to bring with me.

[as British narrator]
Will he get the fire to start?

Will all of the naysayers
be correct?

Stay tuned!

[normal voice]
My expectations are always

higher than my ability.

As my ability gets better,

my expectations
soon outstrip them,

and that is what's
driven me in life,

So close!

Constantly reassessing

and constantly improving
on my skills.

Oh, thank goodness.

Fire!

Not really sure
which way to explore first.

This is all about
learning the land today.

Before busting out my shelter.

See what around my sch-pot.

Hmm.

A big old bear poop.

Some hair, some berries.

I've been through
bear territory before.

I've camped a few nights,
but this is the first time

where I've planned
on an extensive stay

in grizzly habitat.

They live here.
This is definitely their spot.

Getting needlessly
dangerous here,

so 1 suppose 1 should go
and make my way back to camp.

- My morning drink.

1 just drained the grit
out through my teeth.

That's enough for now.

Swallowed some weird little
caterpillar looking things.

Extra protein.

Would you look at that view?

Got this epic mountain
in front of me,

a lake that looks like
Caribbean freaking blue water.

This is one of the most
beautiful places I've been.

This is home,
for long as 1 can stand it.

My passions are music
and the wilderness.

I'm in a Pagan folk band
and a metal band.

So my focus goes
to those two things along

with whatever 1 can do
to pay the bills.

I feel like I've been
preparing for this experience

for years, just doing
the things 1 enjoy.

1 got tons of plant knowledge,

a lot of bushcrafting
knowledge

and fisherman knowledge.

Great catch.

My fiancée just came back
from her first ultrasound.

My fiancée is pregnant
with twins.

The $500,000 prize money would
allow me to give my family

and twins that are
on the way a good life.

1 think the mental game

is one of the most important
things of "Alone,"

and I've got the mental game.

1 can control those thoughts

that are going to make you
want to press the button.

I'm going out there to win it.

Anytime 1 feel like quitting
or I'm cold or I'm starving,

I'm just going to think about

what that money
would do for my family.

Bye!

That's all the fire
I'll need to keep going.

The main reason
1 brought these overalls...

Is that you guys wouldn't have
to see my ass crack as much.

See?
No cracking.

All right. I'm going
to do a little exploring.

Pretty pleased so far.

I think my spot
has got a lot of potential.

Plants everywhere, berries.

1 haven't tried fishing yet.

Look, there's a snack
right over here.

Whether my job is losing
100 pounds and starving

or having success
fishing and hunting,

this is my job now.

1 have twins on the way,

so 1 don't really have
the option of going home.

Oh, yeah.

Now 1 have some material
to forge a knife.

All right.
Guess we'll pull that iron out.

If I can't bring
a fixed blade with me

'cause 1 chose the multi-too),
then 1 just have to forge one.

Get the fire really hot
and get a nice bed of coals,

and then 1 pull it out
when it gets red hot.

And then hammer it with
the back of my axe on a rock.

Maybe when it's done,

1 can prison shank
a musk ox like Roland.

I got a little backyard forge
at home,

and I've made some knives and
jewelry and stuff like that.

It's just a long, slow process
without proper tools,

but the fact
that 1 found metal

was just like,
oh, it was so perfect.

1 couldn't believe it, man.

1 don't think anybody has ever
forged a knife on "Alone."

I had a pretty miserable
night.

1 had to sleep off and on.

1 didn't sleep really good.

I'm pretty sure
I'm sleeping upside down.

I know I'm sleeping on a lump.

I've seen fresh grizzly tracks
just 300 yards from my camp.

This is not the place to be.
So today is moving day.

1 know where T'm going.
1 just got 10 get there.

As hungry as 1 may be

and as hungry as I know
I'm going to get,

the predators are first and
foremost on my mind right now.

1 want a shelter.

Once I'm able to move
into my shelter,

hunting and fishing then
becomes number one on my list.

I intend to build
a log lean-to,

a log cabin
that's lean in one way.

The main reason is bears.

1 just don't want to sleep
underneath a tarp

with grizzly bears around,
you know?

It's gonna give me
a little bit of comfort

and a little self-assurance
that the bear is at least

going to have to work at it
before he can get in there.

I've been doing this kind
of stuff all my life.

Definitely blue-collar.

The only job I've ever
really held is a roughneck.

A roughneck works on the rigs
that drill for oil.

It's a very physical job,
a lot of manual labor.

You're working 12 hours day

nonstop moving
very heavy iron,

very heavy equipment,

and it can be
extremely dangerous.

Then, on top of that,
at the very minimum,

you will be away
from your family

for half of the year.

But as 1 grew older
and grew smarter,

I started realizing what was
really important in life,

and it wasn't work.

1 gave up my career
in the oil field

and doing so,

it's been extremely tough
financially.

But never one have
1 ever regretted it.

I love my family
with all my heart,

and I've been fortunate enough
to have this opportunity.

1 have to succeed.

1 can move in there,

give you a peek inside.

It's not the prettiest,
but I got it done

as efficiently
as 1 possibly could.

The shelter gives me
peace of mind.

It's gonna protect me
from grizzly bears

or other predators
and keep the rain off me.

Home sweet home.

- I just walked out
to the beach,

and the smoke
is finally clearing up,

so I'm going to show you these
amazing, amazing mountains.

[whispering]
Oh, my goodness.

[normal voice]
This is so cool.

But the way the wind
is coming up off that lake,

1 think that I'm going
to move the shelter.

Right now, it's too close
to the beach.

So I'm going to go see
what's here.

This is pretty steep,

but it's definitely doable.

I can get up there and walk
the edge and look down.

There's just so much to do.

I'm from Pennsylvania,

and we get plenty of cold
and snow,

so building permanent shelter
is of course a priority.

Everything that I do,
I've taught myself.

I've taught myself to be
a hunter and to fish and trap,

and now 1 teach it.

I own and operate
a retail sporting goods store

and training center
where 1 teach

youth about the outdoors.

Look at you.

1 have a strong skill set

in predator hunting.

That's pretty crazy.

I'm chasing
a North American Super Slam,

which is the 29 large
North American animals,

with my bow, in hopes to be

one of the very few women
that have done so.

1 am leaving behind
my two children,

my daughter, who is 25,

and my son, who is 22.

My end goal
for this experience

is to prove that,
as a woman, 1 can do this.

I've always worked
in male-dominated industries.

1 had to be confident
in myself

50 that the men that 1 worked
with would respect me.

1 can win this.
1 feel very confident.

Unless 1 get attacked
by a bear,

I don't think I'm tapping out.

There's this big, open spot.

1 have trees
to block that wind,

but I'm still not too far
from the water.

So, yeah, I think it looks
like a good spot.

It's going to take me awhile,
but...

maybe I'll leave
my shelter down there

and get started on one up here.

I'm going to build an A-frame
to help keep the snow off

because the snow
is going to be so wet.

1 know it's going
to be really heavy.

It's very warm here right now,
but the cold nights

just kind of remind you
that winter is coming.

1 want to build something
small to contain heat,

and knowing that there's
SO many grizzly bears

in the area,

1 want to build
something sturdy.

Grizzly bears
are a serious threat.

That's a very large animal
coming at you very fast.

They're 8 to 10 feet tall
and 800 to 1,800 pounds,

covering 60 feet a second.

They're going to be on you

before you even know
what happened.

So it keeps me on high alert.

Not going to reach now.
Got to move that one closer.

I've always been the hunter,
never the hunted,

but I'm confident
in my survival skills,

My ultimate goal
is to prove to myself

what I'm made of
and what I can do.

All right, so...

1 got the frame up.

1 just want to get it up
and get moved down here,

so when I'm here I can make
additions or change things.

I feel like things are going
to start to work out better.

- [laughs] Oh, wait,
don't time, Chad.

"Where we going?"
We're going over there, Chad.

I don't know where we're going,
actually, but I'm excited.

Oh, yeah.
Old Chaddy, Chad.

Chad is my camera.

He's not just this
inanimate object.

We're personal now.

Jorge is the smaller camera,
but still good quality.

Gary and Gordo are GoPro.

So today is a shelter day.

I'm going to be hungry as hell,
but time expenditure

will be worth it,
especially if I can do

the bulk of the material
collection today.

Another blow down area.
Let's avoid that.

Whoa, bear.
Move off, bear.

Holy [bleep].

You keep moving, mama.

Hey, you keep moving, mama.
You take those cubs with you.

I'm not your food.

Don't you stop.

Whoa.

That was close.

That was crazy.

Whoo.

You know, 1 felt pretty good
until she turned.

So she--they were
walking down this way,

and then somewhere in here
they smelled me.

And she snorted
a little bit, like,

she gave a little grunt,
like--[grunts]

And then they turned and they
started coming up this way

and actually got closer.

They were, like,
exactly right in there.

Right there it looks like.
Right in here.

Looks like a track, yeah.
Definitely, right here.

Look, there's the back
part of the paw.

Here is the front part
of the paw.

Wee. That was close.

- [bleep].

I'll never get him with a rock.
I suck.

I'm pretty damn hungry.

My body is going through
a shock right now.

There's no doubt about it,
but it's a choice 1 made.

1 put food aside,

and 1 made a conscious effort
to build shelter.

I got to start
going after some fish.

So I need to make some lures.

I'm allowed to bring
a toothbrush.

1 got smart, and 1 brought
a silver toothbrush

With a hole drilled
in the end.

Now 1 thought is,
1 could cut this off,

get another hole in it...

And maybe I could use it
as a lure.

I've been torn whether I was
making the right decision,

putting all my effort
into a shelter

because 1 am going
very hungry,

but you just have to adapt
and overcome.

That's all you can do.
You adapt or you tap.

I'm going to find out
what works.

And there's my lure.

That wind
is really blowing now.

1 have to fish
on this rocky point.

Anywhere from shore, I'm just
going to lose the lure.

The wind is not
making it easy.

Ah. It goes around my hand.

This is a complete failure.

The wind is so strong
it actually pulled my line

so hard that the lure
never goes into the water.

11 can't get fish,

my odds of succeeding
out here are very slim.

1 need 10 start eating.

1 didn't understand
how hard it is to be hungry

and how much it slows me down
and how much it hurts me

and how much it takes
an emotional toll on me.

[stammers]
It's wearing down on me.

1 know it is.

Six years ago,
I had a heart attack,

and my heart is not as strong
as it used to be.

And that's a concern for me.

At night it beats really hard.

1 don't know why.

I'm sure it's got something
to do with going hungry.

Something to think about.
I'm going to get some sleep.

- It's just breaking day.

This thing is
SO open right now.

It looks like the weather
is turning better.

But it's so open right now

that if we did get
another storm with wind

and rain come through
while it's like this,

it would blow rain all
under here and I'd get soaked.

So I've got to get that--

I've got to get this thing
walled in

and a little bit more secure
before the next storm comes in.

But 1 might try to do
some fishing

before 1 start working
on the shelter.

1 built a fishing rod
and reel.

There's no deep water off
of my beach that 1 can see.

1 mean, its a good 30 yards

to where it even starts
to drop off.

And so the reel should be
much more efficient

and much more effective
to cast to that deeper water.

I like it.

When 1 was working
for Fish and Game,

1 was gone for 150 days
a year sometimes.

1 know there's fish here,
somewhere,.

So leaving the family
wasn't difficult

because it's not
an uncommon thing.

1 might move down
to a the deeper spot.

But this is different.

Solitude is not something
that I'm accustomed to.

1 miss my family.

This will be the longest
I've ever been gone,

but 1 know that they can
handle everything,

and I'll be back
when it's time.

Holy [bleep].
I got one.

Come on, come on, come on.
Come on.

Come on, come on.

Oh, yes.

Whoo! Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.
1 can't believe that.

Oh, my God.
That feels freaking amazing.

Holy [bleep].

So there's my little lure
that I made the other day

out of a rusty bottle top
and some paracord.

And there's the very first fish
that it caught,

and my first fish of the trip.

I am so...

unbelievably happy.

That is--man, that's awesome.

Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you.

I think I'll have
some breakfast.

- Sitting in the middle
of the berry patch.

They're just a little

kinnikinnick berry.

So I'm going to start picking
these a little at a time.

Just kind of munching
on them right now.

I'm not going to eat too many.

But 1 have so much to do.

I'm going to pick
at these a little bit.

I don't really love
the little seeds.

Anyway,
1 just want to show you.

I'm not going to sit here
and eat on camera.

So anyways,
kinnikinnick berries.

Okay.
Packing up to move.

It is so windy today.
This is going to be crazy.

Here we go.

Okay.
Tarp, stay there.

With the rest of my stuff
before you stress me out.

The walk I am not
looking forward to,

but once I get there,
it's going to be so worth it.

I'm up.

This is going to be
such a hard walk.

It's just crazy.

11 can express
how grateful 1 am to be here.

Oh, my goodness.

Ooh!

My strongest skill,
1 think, is adaptability.

I've had to adapt
to different homes

in different settings
and scenarios my entire life.

So 1 feel very confident

that 1 can maintain
the mindset

that 1 need and hang
in there until the end.

So this is actually going
to be the back

of the shelter,

The fireplace is going
to go here with a chimney,

and 1 chose that
because the wind

comes from that direction

and it's going to blow
right through.

It's really, really small,

but I can stand up
and I'm not in a wind tunnel.

It's time to settle in.

Yeah, wintertime, 1 definitely
need to get this buttoned up

because 1 plan on being here.

This is just the beginning.

I'm just kind of

trying to not think about it,

rolling around a lot, but

I'm starting to feel nauseous.

I'm not sure what it is,

maybe the berries.

Oh, my God.
1 feel so yucky.

Okay.

[sighs] Man.

Al right.

I'm going to roll around here
a little bit more

and see how 1 feel.

It's just frustrating
at this point.

To be positive is difficult.

You only have a limited amount
of time to get your shelter up

and get your snares
set and fish.

Don't dare lay down.

When 1 used 10 think
about the possibility

of coming on this show,
1 thought, you know,

I've survived my whole life
basically on my own,

and 1 thrived.

But when you're
in the wilderness

and you're feeling unwell,
it's just not that simple.

1 feel terrible.

1 don't know what to do.

Tm starting to think,
"Can 1 do this?"

- Boy, am 1 starting to stink.

Holy cow.

Yeah. That's no good.

This is the progress I made
on my knife last night.

I think I'm about done
with the shaping of it.

At some point, you just got
to accept it's as good

as it's going to get
with a rock, pliers and an ax.

Mountain fix blade
is almost done

Or should 1 call it
the troll shiv?

I think I'll call it
the troll shiv.

So the other thing
I was working on last night,

my bone nose ring.

It's starting to get
to the point

where 1 can get it to fit.

It needs a little spit lube.

1 have a pierced nose,

but you're not allowed
to take jewelry out here.

So 1 figured 1 would
whittle down a bone

and keep the nose
ring hole open.

Hold on, 1 know this is gross.

1 found it
under an eagle's nest.

It was a bigger bone,

and 1 carved a chunk off of it
and whittled it down,

filed it until
it was nice and smooth.

Oh.

There it is, folks.

Bone nose ring.

- Wind blowing like crazy
all night long.

Yup. Maybe the wind will die

and I'll go fishing,
but it doesn't sound like it.

But if 1 can't fish, 1 st
can work on my fireplace.

1 can work on building
a cook shack.

1 can build a door,

carve a spoon.

I got lots of stuff to do.
No shortage of stuff to do.

It just the things
I really need to do

are the hardest,
and that's get food.

I'm going to get up
this morning

and take my bow down,
walk the beach,

see if 1 can't find
one of them grouse.

The hunger is getting to me,

and 1 know the only way
to get through it

is to stay busy
and keep after it.

There's grouse everywhere.

All it's going to take
is a little ingenuity

to get these grouses
in my pot.

Holy [bleep].
Dinner just flew over there.

Here, Mr. Grouse.

Where are you?

My heart is pounding so hard.

1 don't feel right.

Oh, [bleep].

Something's wrong.

Oh, [bleep].

Ow.

Oh. Hang in there.

Oh, [bleep].

[crying]
I'm having chest pains.

It hurts.

1 feel a heart attack.
1 don't know what's wrong.

Oh, 1 don't want to tap,

but 1 don't want to die,
either.

Get--ow.
[bleep].

Go away. Go away. Go away.
Go away. Go away. Go away.

Go away.

1 promised 1 would tap
if 1 got chest pains.

1 promised.

Oh, 1 don't want to tap.
1 just--{bleep).

I don't want to die either.
I've got to go.

1 need help.

I'm so sorry, Brittney.
[sniffles]

I'm so sorry.

No, please, please,
please don't die.

Please don't die.
[sniffles]

I hurt. I hurt. I hurt.

1 don't know
how to work this phone.

Please don't have
a heart attack, please.

Please don't have
a heart attack, please.

Please. Please.

[groaning]
Please. 1 swear.

1 swear.

This is Tim.
1 need help.

I'm having severe chest pains.

My heart is beating real hard.

1 think T might be having
a heart attack.

I'm scared.

I'm going to live through this.
I'm going to live through this.

I don't give a [bleep]
what the [bleep] happens.

I'm going to live through this.

I'm going to make it home
to my family.

Please don't die. Don't die.

Don't die. Don't die.
Don't die.

Oh.

1 have severe chest pains

and my heart has been
beating really hard.

- I'm going to get you to put
one of these under tongue.

It's just regular aspirin.

- 1 made the right choice.
1 know 1 did.

1 know what this pain is.

It was identical
to my heart attack,

and this pain will end my life
if I don't get help.

My main purpose
in life is happiness.

The only thing
that matters is family.

So when you experience
something

that makes you think you might
never see them again,

it's your family
you think about the most.

- Tim, thanks for talking to me
about your time on "Alone."

1 know you just got
out of the hospital.

Your experience
is really fresh.

So let's talk about
what happened on day six.

First, can you give me
some background

on your health condition?

- Six years ago, 1 suffered
a very massive heart attack

that nearly killed me,
and in the end,

it resulted in only having
35% heart function left.

- Wow.
- I knew coming in here

that it might be a factor.

I can literally feel

my heart beating
in my head and my neck.

- And the doctors cleared you?

- You talk to your doctor
about it, and 1 did,

and you ask him, you know,
all the, "Can 1 do this?

"Should 1 do this?
You know, I'm going

to go out there and starve.
Should 1 do that?"

And every doctor is like, "No.

No, you shouldn't do that."
- Any person says no too.

- You know, but he's,
"Well, look, I understand.

If you're going to do it,
you know, here's the risk.

Here's the things you need
to watch out for.

You know,
here's what could happen."

- So tell me about
your strategy

of building your shelter
rather than finding food first.

- Well, I knew that doing both
at the same time

would be pretty lengthy.
I had seen bear sign.

1 was worried about bears.
1 had no protection.

I've seen a lot of people
come on,

and they don't wind up having
a really good shelter for 14,

sometimes even 20 days,
and 1 didn't want that.

You know, the hunger is going
to come no matter what,

so I figure,
"Let's face it head-on.

Let's get it on,
get it over with."

By day three,
1 was really hungry.

1 had gone, like, 72 hours
with absolutely no food at all,

but it was a risk that 1 took
and maybe in hindsight,

you know, maybe the wrong one.

- How did that play
on your emotions and your mind?

A lot harder than
I thought it would.

Oh, God, please be an onion.

1 wasn't prepared
for the mental effects

of going hungry.

For lack of better term,
it just caused a depression.

Shelter is my nemesis.

- There's a lot of people
on the show, they go hungry,

and 1 don't think people
at home

they understand what
that actually does to you.

- And 1 didn't understand
until 1 went through it.

Going hungry for even three
or four days

really messes with your head.

Keep thinking about my family.

Keep imagining that they're sad
and terribly missing me.

You know, those people
that just sit on the couch,

watch this show
and mock all those people

that tap out prior to day 30,
1 was one of them.

- Mm.
- 1 have been humbled,

and it was a struggle
for me to push through,

and that morning
when the chest pain came,

that's when 1 got really scared

because it's
the exact same pain

1had when 1 had
my heart attack.

Oh, [bleep].

There ain't a doctor
around the corner.

I'm not going to
get help right away.

1 was afrad
1 was going to die.

Oh, 1 don't want to tap,
and 1 don't want to die either!

- I was the first out there
to respond to you, and, wow,

1 can't imagine what you were
going through, Tim.

I mean, one, it's hard
to tap out of this show.

1 know you didn't want
to do that.

None of us do,
and so tell me

how you were feeling
when we first arrived.

- By the time you guys
had gotten there,

1 still didn't know.

I just didn't know what to do.
It hurt.

- It's a good call, Tim.
- Yeah, I--

1 wanted to bring home
the money for my family so bad

that 1 could not help
but think,

"What if you're wrong,
and it's not the heart attack?

It's not even a risk
of a heart attack."

1 made a mistake.

Even though 1 know all logic
was telling me,

"Get out of here. Get help,"
but in the back of my head,

I'm tapping out on day six
for nothing,

but 1 knew...

1 made a promise,
if 1 had heart pain,

1 would tap out,
no questions asked.

You know, it ended my dreams
of winning this thing,

but 1 get to go home.

- Tim, thank you so much
for sharing your story with me.

1 know it didn't end the way
that you wanted, but, you know,

you reminded us all about
what it is to keep your word,

and 1 thank you for that.

- I am bummed that it ended
so extremely early,

but 1 know
1 did the right thing,

and in the end,

I am extremely grateful
to have had this opportunity.

- Holy [bleep].
Those are bears.

- Get out of here!
[air horn blares]

- Grizzly bear can kill
a human with one paw swipe.

- Hey, bear!
- They're everywhere.

- It doesn't get
any more real.

It's just you and nature.

- That just stepped it up
a notch.

- One in ten chance
for half a million dollars.

What's your breaking point?

- Something horrible
is happening.

- One simple slip-up
could send me out of here.

- Doh!

- There's a point this
is not worth it.

- It's bloody cold.

- I'm struggling.

- This is a cold like I've
never experienced before.

- That was most dangerous thing
I've done yet.

- I feel like I'm gonna
to pass out.
