Original subtitles

I'm training. Fig leaf.

Talked to one of the former show contestants

63 days, he said I should work on toughening up my body.

Just getting it used to things, so, there goes.

Hot wire.

Hey.

My girlfriend, she's gonna love the fact that I'm going

To be partnered with a guy.

World needs more strong women.

I look around and all I see are...

Weak women.

Packed up and ready to head out for africa tomorrow.

It's gonna get cold and I'm not keen on

Cozying up to another man.

I'm the type of person that all my friends say

I'm a little scrappy and a little feisty.

I found out that my partner is a girl,

And I'm not really sure how I feel about it.

It's guys versus girls we better bring our a game.

This is my first time in south africa.

I'm out of my comfort zone.

Oh, a giraffe. They're freaking huge.

Now, it feels like I'm in africa.

On the windswept plains of vhembe, south africa,

Four unproven survivalists will attempt a 21 day challenge.

It's gonna be a challenge to survive out here.

Divided into two groups, one team of men

And one team of women.

We're gonna be the bush babes.

They will test their strengt against mother nature

For the first 10 days.

And then merge on day 11

For an all-out survival of the sexes.

Being partnered with a woma makes me nervous,

But at the same time, women are stronger in the mind,

And that's what's needed out here.

It's time to show the rest of the world what we're made of.

One of the advantages of bei on an all-male team

Will be our physical strength.

The disadvantage to being an all male team

May be a clash of egos.

Every guy I know is generall pretty proud of the skills

That they have and if they feel attacked by that,

That may cause some issues.

I'm about to meet my partne and I just want to see...

Is she tough or is she not?

That's my biggest fear is if I just walk up

And I just go, "oh,"

Uh, it's about to happen, all the survival prep

I did. All the years of training.

Hopefully, they're going to pay off,

But it doesn't help with my nerves right now.

This is the spot.

Oh, here we go.

My name is rebel. I'm from kingsland, georgia

And I'm a waitress.

So nervous, I can't even undo my buttons.

My name is cheeny. I'm from maine.

When I was 18, I joined the air force.

I was a sere specialist for eight years.

Time to get naked in south africa.

I'm rusty from bay minette, alabama,

And I am currently retired military.

Normally, I charge for this.

My name is jared. I'm from waterford, wisconsin,

And I'm a service technicia for a packaging company.

There we go.

Let's go feral.

I think in some ways, it's gonna be a lot simpler

Starting with another male.

There's not going to be any weird sexual tension going on.

There he is, there's my guy.

This is not awkward at all.

- Pleasure to meet you. - Nice to meet you. Jared.

- Rusty. - Nice to meet you.

- Yeah. - Do you want to maintain eye contact?

I know the drill. A little awkward, a little awkward.

Yep, yep, definitely.

Different than I expected to, you know,

Meeting another guy, but I'm excited.

Bro out and bound together a little quicker

Than getting over the awkwardness of a male, female thing.

I hope so. I hope so.

What do you think about snuggling at night, huh?

How are you with that?

If if it's cold, I'm cold enough. I'm snuggling.

- Hey. - If you're, if you're fine.

- Survival is survival, man. - Yeah.

- It is what it is. - Hopefully we can get our shelter

- And fire going good. So, we'll be good. - Yeah, yeah.

- What do you have for skills? - So, I'm primarily a hunter.

- Uh-huh. - Hunter, outdoorsman kind of a woodsman.

The experience I'm going to bring out here

Is a strong background in hunting and fishing,

Understanding animal movemen and experience with building fires

And camping outdoors.

- That was the one. - What motivated me to do thi

Is to test my skills to see if I have what it takes

To complete a challenge of this magnitude.

- I think we're going to be in good shape here. - Hopefully.

Jared is an exper bow hunter.

But, he has never hunted outside of the united states

He begins with a primitive survival rating

Or psr of 6.8.

How about you?

So, I did 20 years in the air force.

- Outstanding, thank you. - Retired a few years ago.

Just playing around, hunting, fishing...

- Living the dream. - Trying to.

A lot of my military trainin focused on keeping our troops safe

When they're in austere environments.

I like to describe myself as a modern day renaissance man.

I like to think that I'm capable of doing

All the manly stuff, but I still like poetry.

I've spent my life practicin these skills,

But I haven't actually tested them.

And I feel if you're not testing yourself, you're not progressing.

Rusty has a strong primitive skill set

But his low body fat could threaten his challenge

Rusty sets out with a psr of 7.0.

Looks like we got our supplies over there.

Let's check out what we got.

Oh, yeah. Sweet. Let's go take a look.

I don't have any issues being naked around another woman.

I mean, I went to basic training in the military.

So, it's nothing that I'm not used to.

- Ow. - I'm extremely anxious to meet my partner

Because I don't really get along with a lot of women.

Women are always the most judgmental.

Another naked person.

- How are you? - Good.

- What's your name? - Cheeny.

- Cheeny, I'm rebel. - Rebel?

- Yes. - Oh, my god. Yes. So happy that's your name.

That is my name.

That's perfect, great first impression.

So, what's your background?

Grew up doing survival.

Growing up in the south, there's woods.

Awan, my uncle and then my dad taught me hunting,

Fishing, then cutting grapevines and finding water

I couldn't make spears out of just sticks on the ground

Rubbing them on rocks, you know, shaving them down

To a point.

And I can clean animals especially the small game animals.

People underestimate me because of my size,

And I always proved them wrong.

Rebel has valuabl experience from living off the land,

But she struggles to get alo with other women.

Rebel begins with a psr of 6.2.

- You? - Grown up doin' it, but I also do it professionally.

- Oh, that's awesome. - Been doing it for about 13 years.

This is the ultimate test of all my sere skills.

Sere specialist stands for survival, evasion, resistance and escape.

We would teach aircrew and pilots how to survive

If they ever got shot down in any environment.

We teach them how to evade capture from the enemy,

How to resist interrogation if they were captured,

And finally how to escape.

Cheeny is a skilled survival instructo

But most of her experience comes from working with men

Cheeny has been given a psr of 7.1.

We're gonna be the bush babes.

- Bush babes. Oh, I love it. - Cheeny and rebel.

- The bush babes. - I love it. Bush babes.

Awesome. Let's see what we got.

- We got a pot... - Both teams have been given a pot to purify water

That's perfect.

And a fire starter to keep wildlife away.

This is gonna be our lifeline out here,

Boiling water, keeping predators at bay.

Each teammate has also brought

A personal survival item.

My machete.

Outstanding. Was hoping we'd have a good cutting implement.

- What you got? - I brought my fishing kit.

So, we just got to find a good water source and plenty of fish.

- I brought my long bow. - Nice.

So, should be able to find some protein.

I'm glad to see the bow, that's a beautiful bow.

- Thank you. Thank you. - Yeah.

- I got the map. - The map.

Let's see what we got here.

So, it looks like we're here.

- Yeah. - And we got some water here.

Yeah.

So, obviously, we're gonna want to follow this river south

All the way to where the water and the food source is.

From here, it looks like we're going to head that way.

- Perfect, let's get to it. - All right.

- High five. - Yeah.

Jared and rusty will be trekking three and a half miles north

Over piercing terrain to the nearest water source

-Ah! -That one went in.

They're insidious, these little things.

My biggest concern for my physical abilities

Are my feet, I mean, some of the thorns here are that big.

The dense bush hides black mambas, lions,

And spotted hyena

That can run lengthy distanc at 37 miles per hour

In pursuit of prey.

Do you have an animal here that you're most afraid of?

- Out here? Leopards. - Okay. Yeah, that's a good fear.

Cheeny and rebel will be trekking three and a half miles south

To an equally threatening environment.

Where seven ton elephants come to drink

And rocky outcroppings becom the hunting ground for leopards.

So, why'd you want to do this?

The challenge, 'cause I was in the air force for eight years.

From what I've been doing as a career, like,

I've been teaching people this stuff.

Yeah, I've practiced it, but never anything like this.

- Yeah. - Oh, ow. damn.

I want to prove girls are tough.

We're just as strong as men

So, deep down, I'm secretly hoping that the women

Outperform the men just because women are tough

And the world needs to see that.

But, what about you?

I'm curious to know why you're here.

- My husband was in the army. - Okay.

Did a year in afghanistan.

He came home, he was messed up.

It's probably going to be the closest chance to...

- See when he went through. - Yeah.

Oh, that's a very good reason.

Yeah.

Elephant poops.

That's pretty dense through here.

Don't have a very long field of view.

So, oh, you're right. You can kind of stumble up onto anything.

Do you want to go first?

- I can't. - I'm good.

My partner rusty's being a former military man,

That's, that comes with a base set of skills

That I think are going to suit us really well out here.

Keep a constant eye out for animals.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, a baboon skull.

Look at that.

Oh. Thing's creepy.

It is creepy. It's great though.

Something just beat it to death.

- Or a leopard. - Yep.

Wasn't fast enough.

And I see some bright green up there.

That may be our water.

Yeah, there's a waterhole. Let's check it out.

Yeah, let's see.

For all the water we haven't seen.

That means that it's the only water for the animals as well.

I think we are good.

Don't see anything swimming in it.

Well, you think you want to set up camping

Somewhere in this area?

Obviously, not right on top of the water.

Yeah, I think so.

- See the leaned over tree there? - Yeah.

Yeah, almost like a pre-made lean to a little bit...

- Ooh. - Hung up here.

Thank you.

That's water. Oh, man.

We're such good navigators.

Wow. That's a nice water source.

Yeah, I mean, I'm digging it.

- Obviously, we don't want to be too close. Yeah. - At the water source.

Especially at night, it's gonna be colder.

- Everything tramples through here. - Yep.

I'm hoping to not come face to face with anything

That eats meat out here.

Because by the time I've see them, it's too late.

- See those rocks? - Yeah.

That's where I would like to go.

Look for a place to do a shelter.

- Yeah. - This'll be nice to be a bit higher,

We don't have to worry about getting trampled in the middle of the night.

Yeah.

Oh, this looks good.

Leopard skin, jump on us here.

- I think this will work. - Yeah.

This is perfect.

We can just, like, bird nest ourselves in here.

We seem to be on the same pa for our goals tonight.

First priority is getting the boma built

And getting a fire going.

Hmm.

Got to figure out how that's in there.

I'm gonna make a headband because I'm sick of my hair in my face.

Doesn't have to be fancy, it's just got to work.

Think I'm gonna mark the perimeter of our shelter

- With some urine right now. - That's a good idea.

These predators pick up on that, we don't speak their language.

But...

They speak that language.

Let's get a fire going right now.

It's not gonna help right now, how windy it is,

It's gonna be hard to get a fire going.

Oh, we'll get it going.

I just need the...

- we have flames! - Yes.

It's gonna be warmer here tonight.

We'll get this going on

And then we need to start finding...

- Sharp... - For the boma.

So we are building our shelter here because it's a natural rock formation

With great overhead cover.

Having a good boma is a matter of life or death

Big, thorny massive wall to keep out every sort of

Predator imaginable.

Now, that is a fire.

We won't be cold, that's for sure.

For tonight, the plan is to stay out of the way

Of anything that might be lurking around.

You know, keep the fire going, keep warm and, hopefully,

We'll be able to get some sleep.

Oh, god, it is so warm in here.

Wonder how the boys are doing right now.

If we get a predator nearby and we need to flare it up.

Fire is going to be very, very important.

If you don't have a fire, you know, you're missing out

On one of the main ways to keep yourself from getting eaten.

Yeah, that magnesium does not want to light.

As night's kind of falling I

It's getting dark and we hav to have a fire to keep us safe.

Ooh, that was close.

Getting the fire started is one thing

I did not think we would have an issue with at all.

Oh, what was that?

Was that... I heard something.

Oh,

It's almost useless.

It's, like, one thing I did not think we would have an issue with at all

Is getting a fire started.

We were both so confident in our fire making abilities.

We did not budget enough tim for making fire,

Which in this environment is a horrible way to go into things.

Yeah, I'm gonna find some different stuff.

All right, I'll keep giving her a try.

Okay.

- Keep a constant eye out for animals. - Oh, yeah.

Let's see.

Why is this so difficult right now?

Try different material.

We heard some hyenas.

So, I'm trying to keep an eye on everything.

Just because some of these animals, they don't give yo any warning.

They'll just charge you.

All right, I got some new stuff here.

- Got some new stuff. - Yeah.

Give this a try.

Look at you.

Luckily, as the sun's setting the last minute,

We got the right tinder.

We got the fire going and it was just the best feeling in the worl

It was gonna be a long, cold, scary night.

It's dark.

Outside our little cave.

It's okay, because we have fire.

Yeah, it's hard to believe we have this...

The taj mahal of bomas.

Yeah.

There's a hyena.

- That was close, man. - Yeah.

Hyena...

I slept surprisingly well.

Yeah, I slept really good actually.

All things considered, I really want to get down

To this pond because it is our best chance

For getting something of sustenance.

I brought my glasses.

So, I can see so much better with these on,

So I'll be able to see, like, super, like, eagle eyes.

Yeah, look at these tracks.

How fresh they are.

Yeah, I didn't see those yesterday.

One thing we got to look out for is when we go to the water source.

You know, we always want to watch out

For some of the larger animals.

I know there's leopards around here.

I know there's lions around here.

I know there's elephants around here.

So, literally everything is going to have to use thi

One water source and that means it's dangerou

So, it's probably another if I had to guess,

- 80 yards. - Yeah.

So, start like, really paying attention.

Oh, yes, I can see him.

Baboons.

There's a couple baboons and couple of deer.

Seeing all these animals, I mean it is really cool.

But, that's not my first thought.

My first thought is, "oh,"

Because they're big and they're dangerous.

If we get a stampede going or anybody coming at us,

We don't expect.

Go right there.

Get on that log.

Whoo. Hello.

What did we find?

It's a gecko.

Come on, you bastard.

Sweet.

Beat.

There are fish in there. They're jumping.

They're getting something off the surface.

So, my plan is to get a line out with a hook

With the lizard head on it and kind of just stand ther

And wait and see if anythin comes by to bite it.

Just take the riverbed up, you think, and hit a game trail?

The black bird over there.

On the ground.

They're onto us.

Everything is so alert.

If you start going that way, I'll...

I'll try to cut around this way and get in a good blind spot.

Good luck.

No pressure. Just don't mess up.

So far, what we've seen are birds and an occasional squirrel.

I've got the bird head for my arrow,

So I'll take my chances and I'll shoot an arrow at every bird

I feel I have a clean shot a

Looks like a good shot, but I think the brush just g

Ahold of the tip before the arrow got to it.

No dice.

So, I fire my arrow at the bird.

It ricochets off the ground and lands right under the center

Of the thorn bush.

I should not have shot my arrow into here, this sucks.

These things, they call the devil thorns or something like that.

But, no matter which way they land on the ground,

There's a point up at least one.

Every step, pick up, like, five of these things in each foot.

Oh, this is...

Impossible.

That was a long, painful walk to get a shot off at all.

I did take a shot at one, but seems like they like to hang out

In, like, these kind of open areas

That's just covered with the devil thorn.

Yeah. How are your feet?

Perforated.

Right there.

I don't know what's in here, but I'll get these hooks set up.

Ow!

Damn.

Got a hook in my finger.

It's in there pretty good.

Just trying to tighten my kn and the thing slipped.

It's in there pretty deep too.

That barb is just catching o all my thumb meat.

So stupid.

So gross.

I just feel like I'm going to be sick.

I can't get it out.

Oh, man.

I just feel like I'm gonna be sick.

I can't get it out.

Need to see a medic.

We need a medic, cheeny's injured a finger.

Copy that, I'm on my way.

It's nerve-racking that this happened on day two.

This is the barb, I can't pull it out.

Okay.

So, we're gonna need to cut the hook.

- And fish it out. - Damn.

Cheeny managed to embed a barbed fishing hook

Really deeply into her thumb

Oh, man.

So, we're gonna cut and then we're gonna pull

The whole hook through your finger, you understand?

Oh, I understand. Yeah.

It's in there deep, yeah.

The only option that I had was to cut the fishing hook itself

And feed the entire hook through the rest of her thum

Ow!

Please, god, get this thing out of my thumb.

It's coming.

Good. Big one, huh?

So, deep breath.

Let's get a proper grip and just do it one time, okay?

- Mm-hmm. - One, two, three.

Ooh!

Success!

I'm not gonna cover it because it's going to be better...

Open because it's going to swell.

- Okay. - Try and keep it as clean as you possibly can.

Any injury, there's always an associated danger of infection,

But being in this environmen it is multiplied.

- Thanks, doc. - Good luck.

- Oh, thank you. - That was fun, huh?

Yeah.

I have to keep this thing as clean as possible at least

For, like, a day or two to heal.

Take it easy the rest of the day.

I'm going to be much more careful out here.

I'm just not used to being in an environment that is ju so dangerous.

Kind of print.

Yeah, right here, look.

It's a cat. He was fishing around here.

Just saw this dead fish.

Looks like something was eating on it.

Wasn't there yesterday.

But I bet that's what caught that fish.

Right on the shore was a dead catfish

That looked like some kind of cat had killed over the night.

How's it smell?

Normally, I wouldn't eat a dead catfish

Out of a poop pond.

But, pretty excited to have some food.

Try and fillet this thing a little bit.

See what the meat smells like.

Bottom feeding fi like catfish are high in nutrition,

But tend to have greater levels of contaminants

From the mud they swallow with their food.

We just wanted to take what we knew would last the longe

And eat that just to be extra safe.

That's a hunk of meat.

- I do wonder how the women are doing. - Me too.

I wonder if they've eaten yet.

All right, day thre

Rebel and I have gathered some of the mopane leaves

Because if you lay them out in the sun,

And then you boil them in a pot of water.

You can eat them.

We just need to put somethin in our stomachs

Because it's been about three days

And we haven't had anything but water

And I can feel this morning starting to catch up to me.

It's better than nothing.

All right, let's go.

I'm getting hungry though, I can feel it.

Yeah, for sure. I felt it this morning.

Ow, oh. That's a terrapin.

Look what I caught.

- Oh, no - yeah,

I cannot believe this.

No, I saw a shell and he wasn't really moving.

So, I was, like, I'll just reach down there and grab them.

Oh, he stinks.

Finding the terrapin is not something I'd ever think of as food.

But, you know, when you're out here, you just got to do it.

I just want to kill him the fastest way possible.

God, he's strong.

I'm trying to pry this terrapin's shell open.

And the more I pry, the tighter it squeezes

And I mean this thing has got a grip.

The serrated hing terrapin gets its name

From a hinged shell that makes it difficult to pry open.

I can't get his head out.

Yeah, the best way would be chop off his head

Or stab him in the head.

The only way to kill this thing is to do it incredibly brutally.

And I don't want to do that.

Think we should leave him alone.

Might be in luck today, dude.

Just gonna find a better way to kill him.

Yeah.

Even in a survival situation like this,

I was more than willing to pass it up because

It doesn't deserve it and I wouldn't feel right eating it afterwards.

Looks cooked to me.

I feel amazing pulling out that fish we're going to ea

Which is something I desperately need.

It looks delicious.

I'm not grossed out whatsoever.

I am hungry.

Oh, yeah. Feels good to chew something.

Mm-hmm.

Feel myself perking up a little bit already.

The catfish tasted really good.

It really gave us some energ and made day number three great.

Probably feel a little bit more like a scavenger

Than a predator at this poin

But, my stomach has no problems with that.

Mmm.

So appetizing.

Soaked spinach.

It does look like spinach. That's what we boiled.

I didn't go too crazy because this is just morale thing.

Tastes like weed.

One out of 10. Would not recommend.

Hope you don't upset my tummy.

Well, at least we had something.

You all right?

Damn.

Stomach crunch.

Jared started feeling nauseous.

You know, obviously a little concerned with the catfish

Because that's the last thin you want to be throwing up

Out here, feeling sick.

Still feeling nauseous?

Awful.

It's really hard on the body every time we got to do that.

Rebel's not feeling to good this morning because

Those mopane leaves made he throw up last night.

And I'm, like, "oh, no, this is not good."

It sucks. But, this is the hump,

You just got to get over it.

- Bush babes. - In it till the end.

All right.

As a sere specialist, I've been in her shoes befor

You know, in training. It happens to the best of us

I think your blood sugar's tanking.

That's the biggest thing is we just got to get some calories in

Or something.

There's food in that pond, and every day

That I don't go down and tr to get something out of ther

Is another day without any food.

Try to rest up.

I'll be right back.

I'll do whatever it takes to keep the team together,

Even if that means picking u a little bit of the slack.

I want to catch fish so bad.

They're right here and they swim off.

It's not what I want.

This mud is so deep.

I already feel drained.

Got to keep going, when I sit down, I feel okay.

But when I'm out here, doing anything,

It takes a lot of effort.

God.

The water is very cloudy and it's got algae on a good portion of it.

I don't think this is gonna work.

So, my fishing technique isn't really working out.

I'm gonna figure a way to set this out here and leave it.

Cheeny is doing extra, but I am still getting stuff done.

Everything just hurts.

It's just hard to do anything.

Sucks that I can't physicall do as much,

But getting the priorities done is enough for me.

This sucks.

Do you need to take a break, I'll go get the water?

Don't want to do too much.

We still got a lot of days left.

I'm gonna have to do the bes I can to take care of the ca

And let him rest as much as he can if he's sick.

The catfish that we had, whether it's bacteria from I

Or my stomach being shrunke from not eating.

But now, I'm feeling kind of depleted.

Just trying to recoup a little.

Extreme hunger and dehydrati can be detrimental.

It's tough on the body, hoping that he stays healthy and well.

Give this water a try.

Feel like I got more energy already.

That makes me feel better.

Take energy however you can get it out here.

A lack of food is gonna make us hit a wall.

I feel much better today, but out here is just, you know,

Not what I expected.

There's food everywhere.

Just not easy to actually catch it.

The longer we go without food, the harder it gets.

So, I am doing a lot better than rebel is out here.

It sucks and it's hard.

But this isn't the hardest thing I've ever done.

It's all slimy again.

I owe it to what I went through as a sere specialis

In instructor training.

I mean, we got our asses handed to us for six months

To a year.

This is nothing new to me.

Oh, man, this looks like.

- I tell you, I'm starting to get hungry. - Yeah.

Wildlife as far as hunting goes has been pretty scarce around here.

So, I'm hopeful that when we get to the next location,

There'll be more game to hun

Which means more food for the tribe.

No dice.

My boobs are smaller.

Mine are too, man.

Yours were already small to being with.

- I know, right? - Itty bitty titty committee.

I've never been this hungry in my life.

So, with the merge coming up we got to take every little thing

We can get out here no matter what.

So, I'm turning over rocks to try to find some bait

For my line.

Ooh, it's a big scorpion.

Ha-ha, sucker.

Sweet.

Eeh!

Gonna make good bait, I kind of also want

To bring him back to camp and cook his ass up.

But, I know there's fish in there.

Wow, I've never seen one so big.

Now we can try to pick up where we left off.

I got another piece of bait.

Let's go back to our boma, come back in the morning,

We'll get a line out because that's when

- The fish will bite and... - All right.

Just a couple of tough broads.

I'm making this fish spear hoping that I'm going

To be able to either get a fish or get a snake.

Strip off this bark, straighten it in the fire,

Split the end in four pieces.

Just a normal bushcraft spear.

Cutting in the little barbs here.

I'm gonna call that.

Good enough.

Should be catfish sized.

We'll see.

We'll see.

- That's the challenge. - Yeah.

How do you think the women are doing?

Just hoping that they're doing well.

Hopefully they got the food situation figured out.

- You still have a headache? - Yeah.

Yeah, my eyes hurt too.

I am extremely exhausted, you know, shortness of breat

And getting dizzy and stuff.

All right, back to the pond.

So, I got my scorpions,

And now I really want to get down to this pond

Because it full of food, I've seen it. I just have to get it.

Cheeny's down there right no at the water

Trying to set up some fishing stuff,

So, hopefully, we can get some food.

I'm not sure how much more I can handle.

Without having any food in my system.

My body just doesn't know what to do out here,

I feel it bad.

I couldn't even walk to the water source, so...

Thank god for my partner.

Now, I just have to split hi up into pieces.

It's like the lobster of africa.

All right, now, I'm gonna go set it.

I'm gonna set up some stake and tie the line between

The two stakes with some hooks on that line

That we suspended just belo the surface,

Because if I put anything in there and just the hook,

It's gonna sink down to the bottom into the mud

And nothing's gonna find it

Fingers away from the hook.

There we go.

Then I can leave those hook out there for the day

With bait on them.

All right.

Please catch something.

I mean, I'm coming back here four times a day

To get water anyway, so I can check every couple of hours.

It's kind of like ice fishing, but without the ice.

God, hope I catch some fin.

This morning I'm dragging, I haven't been sleeping wel

Since I got here.

And we have haven't had anything to eat hardly,

But, now, we have a spear.

We're hoping to catch something.

Wind is still breezy.

The sun feels nice.

Deep spot. It's getting deeper there.

Touched two with my feet.

- Did you? - Uh-huh.

- Just jetted out? - Yeah.

Between my legs.

Didn't get 'em. He didn't like it.

- This is a difficult task. - Yes, not easy.

Whoo!

Hoping that breeze comes through.

May be a long night tonight.

- Cold, windy night. - Yeah.

Wind means cold.

- Boy, that wind is not giving up. - Yeah.

I'm shivering. Yeah, it's just, it's hard

To move your body in the cold and that for sure,

Is my, my definite weakness

Yeah. Okay.

This is not gonna be fun.

Freezing.

I don't care who you are, it's cold. It sucks.

And when you're cold like this,

You definitely burn more calories.

Whoo! Man, almost, almost there.

Almost there.

I don't know what to do about rebel. She doesn't feel good again.

Mmm, I'm not gonna tap out.

Oh,

If I don't make it to day 21 my husband's going to be very disappointed.

I'm totally burned out.

Not having food has been really hard.

No way.

Caught a fish.

This is the best day ever.

Oh, yes.

I'm so happy right now.

Come here, you.

I guess I planted that stick a little harder than I thought.

Oh, yes, dude, look at this catfish.

I'm the best fisherman ever.

Gonna get this thing on the shore before I lose him.

No!

No way.

Caught a fish.

I'm so happy right now.

I'm the best fisherman ever.

Gonna get this thing on the shore before I lose him.

No!

No!

No.

No, no, no.

Damn it.

I let my excitement get the best of me

And I made several crucial mistakes.

I could cry, but I'm too dehydrated.

That was a big loss and that was my bad.

You never celebrate before you have a fish in the net.

Ah, I honestly feel awful

Having to tell rebel that I just lost our first meal.

Oh, my god. So mad right now.

Naked and frustrated.

Haven't been afraid once, I've just been frustrated.

I'm cold and tired and I'm not drinking enough water today

And that's what happens.

- Hey, rebel. - Hi.

Bad news, I lost the fish.

Damn.

Sucks the suck.

- Yeah. - Happens.

So thirsty.

I'm worried about you.

Yeah, I'll be all right.

Just got to rebait it now.

- All right. I'll be right back. - Okay.

Well, there's catfish in here.

I know how to get them...

God.

I hate catfish too. I think they taste like

But I would have totally been happy to eat one.

Really hard to breathe. I can feel my heart pulsing

I think of my husband and, you know,

What he went through and, you know, I'm not gonna tap out.

No, I'm not, but like my body's gonna give up.

I just touched one right there.

You want me to try and drive them towards you a little bit?

See if we can find it.

I keep getting my hands on the fish, but they're too strong

And too slippery for me to get ahold of them.

- That one? - Yep.

- Yeah. - Got 'em by the fins.

Want me to come up with you?

- I got the mouth. - All right.

I got him.

Yeah.

I feel amazing pulling out that fish

We're going to eat which is something I desperately need.

- There we go. - Yes!

- Dinner. - That's where you got 'em, huh?

Seeing that fish means resetting the clock on our survival.

We have everything we need here

And the last piece of the puzzle is food.

This is gonna be amazing.

Gonna be eating good.

You all right?

You know, I've been taking o for the team

To try to help us both out.

And so exhausting. I know you're tired.

- I know you've been feeling sick. - Yeah.

I feel for you. But at some point, like,

I can't burn myself out either, you know?

Yeah.

I mean, you gotta listen to your body.

- Yeah. - You really do.

Because there can be some serious long term effects from this.

I know.

I'm still gonna take care of you, but I need to focus on myself.

This is the most important thing I've ever done in my life.

Yeah.

So, I have to finish it.

Physically, it's been up and down and up and down.

But...

- I want to be here and... - I want you to be here too.

All right?

Thank you.

Who would've thought that big ol' catfish in that little pot.

I did not think so.

It's amazing to know that we're going to have full bellies

Before we merge.

The meat's done. If you want to, we can boil the head a little bit more,

But I think we're good.

Whoo, that's hot.

- That's good. - Mm-hmm.

It is an amazing feeling having meat

And I know this catfish is going to give us the strength

We need to last longer.

Tastes like we're not starving anymore.

We made that happen. That was teamwork.

Hopefully, when we team up with the girls,

It'll, uh, continue the good teamwork.

It's gonna be a long physical day tomorrow.

Could be in the blazing sun all day.

I'm working on a hat for my poor little head.

I'm just doing a basic grass weaving technique.

Using my little...

Awl I made, burned a little hole in the center of it,

So I can feed it through a little better.

We're taking today as a hydration and rest day

In preparation for the big journey to meet our tribeswomen.

The straw hat is coming along nicely.

You know, it's tedious work, but hopefully,

It'll keep my noggin from getting sunburned.

Cleaning off all the stuff on the outside a little bit.

It looks great, man.

That's good enough.

- Keep the sign on. - Classy, you gotta put a feather in that thing.

Oh, yeah.

- All right. - Let's get down there and get water.

Get water and check our lines.

Check the lines, yep.

You know, I'm concerned abou the merge tomorrow

Without having any food in my system

And the way I've been feelin for quite a few days now,

But if my husband went through even a portion of this,

You know, it's a lot, but it's made me more desperate

To just keep going and prov that I can make it.

My sticks have gone.

Oh,

Doesn't mean that's a bad thing.

My first thought was somethi ran away with her whole line

We're screwed.

- Oh, my gosh. - Grab it, grab it, grab it.

Oh, yes.

Yes!

Get your machete out, let's kill this thing.

Okay.

Oh, I feel so bad for this fish right now.

I don't care because I'm gonna eat it.

Look at all that red meat.

Mmm.

- Redemption. - Yes. Yes. Bush babes.

We needed that.

This is the redemption that I needed.

You're really roasting yours, huh?

Yeah. Catfish is, like, the dirtiest of fish.

- Catfish never tasted so good. - Mm-hmm.

So good.

I just feel myself coming ba to life

With every bite I take of this thing.

You know, thinking about getting closer to the merge

This is exactly what we need

I didn't think I'd feel this bad

After I got food in me.

Damn.

Oh,

There's a fish in the water.

Getting really sick to my stomach.

I tried to stay laying down

Tried to, you know, breathe calmly and everything,

Trying to make the nausea go away.

I don't know what it was, hopefully it passed.

Hopefully, I don't have to deal with it anymore.

Merge day is tomorrow.

Hey.

Hey. You okay?

Hey, you okay?

Hey. Hey. You okay?

- Yeah. - You just passed out.

You just dropped, dude.

I thought I was over the hump. I thought I was better

And now this is giving me a lot to think about.

I feel just horrible.

Honestly, I feel worse than I have this whole time.

I was real worried last night after you passed out.

- Things could've been a lot worse. - Thank god, I fell on you.

- You can always lean on me. - Yeah.

I mean, I'm dizzy and nauseated

And trying to deal with that on a six mile hike in the sun.

It's probably not the smartest idea.

I think this is, yeah. I think this is it.

I don't think I'm gonna...

Think I'm gonna tap.

You sure?

Yeah, I'm sure.

You gotta have physical or the mental, right now I don't think either one.

I know I don't have the physical.

You've definitely got the mental.

You know, I came in here for a reason.

I wanted to get closer to what my husband went through

And I think I did that, so...

Gotta say, rebel, you are the toughest chick I ever met.

Hard as woodpecker lips.

Honestly, just based on the way the last couple of days have gone,

Part of me saw this coming.

There is some relief, honestly, because I've been watching her

Suffer all week.

I wanted her to make it to 2

I mean, it sucks, but I feel like she made

The right call this morning.

You got this.

She's a trouper, man. I gotta hand it to her.

She's one tough cookie. Extremely proud of her.

I'm gonna miss you, rebel.

I said I wouldn't tap, but not gonna risk it,

Not gonna put that on my partner either.

Watching rebel go down the hill and get into the truck

Was one of the most real moments I've felt in a while.

After making it only halfway through the challenge,

Rebel's psr drops from a 6. To a 5.3.

Can't say I feel better because I still feel like.

Gonna vomit at some point, I know I am.

But, I hope my family is proud of me.

I may not have made it 21 days, but, damn it, I made it 11.

I'm gonna miss my teammate.

I'm excited about meeting the two women.

At this point, I'm just fatigued.

- So, it's hard to show any... - Yeah.

Emotions in that way. Yeah, I'm excited too.

All right, where are we going?

Turtle boma there.

I think we can take the riverbed up.

Stop at the waterhole, get muddied up. Let's do it.

Let's do it.

To reach their merge point, the survivalists will have to travel

Four miles from their respective camps over

An arid landscape covered with scorching rocks

And piercing thorns until they arrive at

An exposed dry lake bed.

From there, they will head west to a waterhole two miles away.

Being out here alon not having rebel with me

Is already pretty lonely.

Terrain's already a lot different, it's a lot more open.

There's a lot more animal poop.

A lot more game trails.

So, make sure I'm moving slow and I'm listening for hooves

And growls and snarls.

And I don't have a copilot with me to keep an eye on stuff,

But just got to be extra careful is all.

I don't want to end up like this guy...

- Sun's getting brutal now. - Yeah, sure is.

I'm curious what the women are going to bring to the team.

If they've made it this far,

They're just as badass as anyone else out here.

I would love it if they had a fishing kit,

That would make getting those fish a lot easier.

Yeah.

Sand, very nice.

To the angry grass.

Hate walking on this grass because that's where the flipping thorns are.

This is definitely the grassiest spot I've been in yet.

So, my biggest concern here is leopards.

They blend in real nice with this grass.

Meeting up with the boys, or boy, who knows what I'm gonna come up to.

I'm hoping that they're stro

As we gotta build other boma gotta look for more food.

It's gonna be a completely different game after the merge.

Holy thorns, batman.

Lizard.

Where there's lizards, there may be snakes.

We are totally exposed out here.

Definitely nothing that looks like this in wisconsin.

I've been looking forward to this day,

Just for, you know, getting new environments,

Having a new team dynamic as far as extra people.

There's one. I don't see a second.

There's one, I don't see a second.

Nope.

- Hey, tribes woman. - My dudes.

Am I happy to see you.

- How long have you been alone? - Just today.

- How are you doing? - So much better now.

Good.

- I'm jared. - Jared, dude, cheeny.

- Cheeny? - Yeah, nice to meet you.

- Rusty. - Rusty. Dude, nice hat.

Oh, thank you.

I gotta say you guys are exactly what I was hoping to walk up to.

I see tools.

I see cordage, I see a hat.

They just look like a couple of real bushmen.

So, what happened to the partner?

She just wasn't feeling good.

Just getting super sick, nauseous, dizzy all the time.

Yeah, I had that on day three, but it passed luckily.

I feel a little bad for the other woman,

That she wasn't able to make it,

But I know that cheeny has gone through 11 days

Just like us, so she's gott be worth her mettle.

Eating?

I had catfish.

How'd you catch your catfish?

So, I did a line with three hooks on it.

We're hoping someone would have a fishing kit.

Yeah.

- I think we should... - Figure out where we're going.

Go to camp, huh? We're here.

Mm-hmm. That's where we're headed.

So, should probably skip this open, muddy area

And go up and over that and make our way around.

- That works great for us. - Let's hit it.

Try to find the most foot friendly path.

From the merge point, the newly formed tea

Will hike west to a small po two miles away.

As the area's only water source,

It attracts the deadliest animals of the vhembe bush,

Including elephants, hyena, and nile crocodiles

That kill an estimated two to 300 people per year.

Amazing how many trees there are for being as barren as it is.

We gotta cut up over this way a little bit.

So what do you do?

- I'm a wilderness survival instructor. - Oh, man.

- Yeah. - That's awesome.

- I'm a retired air force. - Oh, no, me too.

- I got out at eight years. - Sweet, what'd you do?

- I was a sere specialist. - Oh, cool.

Skills that cheeny's bringing as a former sere instructor

And a wilderness guide,

She's gonna be a great addition to the team

Oh, man.

Oh, my god.

This heat is no joke.

Burning my tootsies.

Found water.

I see plenty of hunting of possibilities.

Now there's turtles in this pond.

Oh, my favorite.

Fill up the pots and then find a good shelter site,

Build a fire and get it boiling right away.

- Sounds good. - This is looking kind of good.

The temperature is not warm right here.

- Yeah... - Everywhere else is blazing.

We can use part of this bush as, like, part of the wall.

- Uh-huh. - Kind of build around it.

Let's do it.

Lots of hard work ahead.

Let's get this lit, so I can help the boys.

There we go.

Our new partner's got a fire going.

Jared and I struggled a little bit when we tried to start one,

So it's good to see.

Dude, you're a beast chopping that.

Yeah, I figure we don't have much choice.

So far, working with these two boys,

I feel like it's a much mor equal partnership.

I mean, we're all tired. We're all draggin' ass,

But we're all doing what nee to get done

And I don't give a

- About sharing a shelter with two men. - There we go.

I'm going to be in this boma all night with these dudes.

I'm going to be pissing in the corner right there,

And I don't care.

Pretty cool.

Strong work today, boys.

We have a really strong tribe.

I don't see why all three of us can't make it out

On day 21.

Gonna head down in the water soon?

Yeah. See if we can get some turtle-inis.

We burned a lot of energy yesterday in getting here.

Let's go to the water.

And then building up the boma, we just don't have it in us,

So it'll be worth it to go out and start getting some, some food.

There's a lot of terrapins in here.

There we go. That was easy.

Dude, yeah. We eatin' today, boys.

That'd be good with more than one.

I bet we could all eat one. I'm game for it.

Swim pretty quick, huh?

Well done. Here we go. One piece.

Man, you're hero.

Shove a rock in there, he's gonna close up wicked tight.

Coming out in a second as soon as I get him in the water.

Poor guy thinks she's just giving him a bath.

I put the turtle back in the water.

So, he would open up his shell a little bit.

- Do you have a broadhead handy? - Sure do.

The way rebel and I were trying to do it,

We were trying to get in with our knife and the knife

Doesn't have a sharp point on the end.

For me, I was, like, "yeah, I'm not gonna kill him this way.

- It's just too up." - yeah.

The broadhead makes a big difference.

Stick it in and go all the way forward till it stops.

Yeah.

So, he's gonna bleed out pretty quick,

And then we can eat him up.

I'm glad they did that as fast as they did.

Hot supper.

I'm good with three.

Yeah, we should save him for another day.

Cool.

Damn, best day ever.

You getting more kills with my arrows than I am.

Perfect.

Man. That never looked so good.

- Terrapin soup, huh? - Terrapin soup.

Terrapin two ways.

Barbecued.

It tastes a lot better than it looks right now.

Man, I can't believe I said I would never eat this.

Stupid.

Terrapin, they taste amazing

You know, it's the calories and fat that we all need.

If we eat terrapins the rest of the week, I'm okay with that.

I can think of a potential team name

For consideration.

- What's that? - The feral family.

Mm-hmm.

I like that.

Everything's about balance.

A man and woman, they balance each other.

Everybody brings a different skillset,

A different mindset to the table, different background.

So, I feel like we have a great dynamic.

I mean, we're more than just a team now, you know, we're a family.

Look at you.

I stepped on him.

I'm so sorry, little turtle, but we need this.

There we go.

Holy.

- Eggs. - Nice.

Egg yolks, man. Those are super food.

14 eggs going in the pot.

Yeah, see, there's more.

This thing is all eggs.

It's like easter. It is easter.

Yesterday was thanksgiving.

- Today is easter. - Sounds like the roast beast is coming next.

Ooh, gotta have the roast beast.

Salut.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

Yeah.

When I was walking out, stepping on this thing.

This will be the third day in a row that we're eating

And that's unheard of so far.

I feel my muscles repairing themselves a little bit,

I feel less sore.

Feel a little more energy.

Feeling overall pretty good

Hanging by the fire.

Cleaning our teeth because we have so much terrapin meat in them.

It's a good problem to have.

Tell you what... You leave africa hungry, that's your own fault.

- Giraffes. - Oh, yeah. Look at 'em.

Holy

I feel like I'm in jurassic park right now.

Technically, the closest I've ever been to a giraffe.

Waking up this morning, I'm feeling good.

We all went to bed with full stomachs,

And I've got energy, I feel great.

Luckily, we've been eating so much terrapin

And I haven't had to go hunting yet.

See any turtleheads?

No.

Damn it.

Wondering what that is.

You see, rusty, terrapin trail.

Leading right out of the water.

Tracks out of the water means they're leaving town.

God.

Terrapin trail leading right out of the water.

Tracks out of the water means they're leaving town.

- Yeah. - I wonder if we bugged them too much.

When we first got here, getting terrapins was like picking low hanging fruit.

They were everywhere.

Pretty disappointing.

We're gonna have to focus our efforts on other food sources,

But we have another fisherman now, we have our hunter.

I'm reasonably confident we're going to eat.

Let's head back to camp, unsuccessful.

In our waterhole, our food supply ran out.

So, I'm putting pressure on myself to get another food source

By way of red meat.

- It's time to hunt. - I'm gonna go in there, right there.

Sounds good.

I have a tremendous amount of faith in jared

With his hunting ability, he's very knowledgeable, he's very skilled.

There's a mess of guineafowl down here.

Feeling a lot of pressure to close a deal on a game animal over here.

Really, really want to be able to provide for this tribe.

So, I really need to get it going.

- Hey. - What's up, man? See anything?

I took a couple shots at some guineafowl.

None connected.

- No joy. - Just be positive.

Keep trying new things and you'll get success.

I'll kill something before I leave this country.

I swear.

Oh, we know you will.

That was cool.

- Keep an eye on him. - Hunt this morning?

Sure.

I'm really hoping to get some fish for these boys.

So, my plan is to get a line out with a hook

And rusty and I will put out some bird traps

And jared can get out hunting.

We know that we have to start thinking outside the box.

What do you think the best spot would be to run the line?

Well, I see a lot of activity there.

So, maybe I just answered my own question.

I've got my baited hooks.

Hopefully, we'll have a catfish on here in the morning.

I'm setting a deadfall trap here, hoping to get guineafowl.

So, as long as they like the bait, we should have something.

Check this trigger here.

Yeah, we're good there.

See if I can set up a spring pole bird trap

To just one where they step on it.

It'll trigger the trap, catch a bird.

A spring trap use a bent sapling stick

To a trigger with a line that extends into a loop.

When an animal walks throug the loop,

The trigger is released and the sapling whips

The snared animal into the air.

Can you hold this tight end?

Just so, I can get it tied quick.

The bad thing is you generally have to set 15 traps

For every one animal you catch.

And if something gets in there before the morning,

It's gonna get eaten.

Let's hope that doesn't happen, huh?

Mm-hmm.

I don't think the impala have been to the water yet.

I think it's super-hot.

Let it cool off a little bit.

I'll be hidden...

I think they'll make their way back here.

Holy

It's an elephant.

Now there's two of 'em.

Oh, thank god. They left.

Those elephants were within 50 yards of my blind.

They could have very well taken a different path

And walked right through it.

It's an unnerving type of situation.

The hunger's really getting to me,

I never imagined I'd be licking all these

Aphid secretions right off the trees.

Aphids are tiny insects that feed by

Sucking sap from plants.

They're edible and contain honeydew,

A sugar rich liquid derived from the plant leaves they feed on.

I don't know if they're casings that they leave behind,

But at this point, anything I can get where we definitely

Wanting some food.

Day 17 is in the bag.

I've been feeling bad.

It's not good.

Also mentally low.

I mean, we're all starving.

- Getting dizzy at all? - No.

Nice.

- You guys? - Oh, yeah.

Rusty's struggling.

He's, uh, doesn't have really any body fat left

To speak of and it's taken a toll on him harder than anybody else here,

So we're keeping an eye on him.

We're all real hopeful that jared is gonna bring ba

Something soon.

I know what I needed.

It's, like, the wind is about the same today.

Might be a little hotter, which may drive a little more

- Movement to the water. - That would be amazing.

Jared is putting a ton of pressure on himself

And we're doing our best to let him know that, you know,

It's hunting. It's unfamiliar territory.

So, hopefully, he's not taking the burden all on himself.

Trap hasn't been sprung.

The lines been out in the water for a couple of days

With bait on the hooks.

Still bait on 'em.

I'm not sure if there's any catfish in here.

No. There's nothing in there that's biting.

I'm definitely going to still keep trying

Because if you don't try, you don't get any.

So, we'll just have to readjust.

The wind is a lot, lot calmer today.

Sun's out, should be a hot day,

And that's gonna drive these animals to the water.

I underestimated how difficu it would be to procure food out here.

You think of africa as a land of bounty,

But I feel like I let my tribe down.

Starvation is a whole new level of hard.

It's a different type of tired.

It's a different type of physical, mental

And emotional drain that I've never experienced before.

And so, I have to just try not to focus too much on food.

It's absolutely maddening.

I did not expect to starve this much here.

I'm feeling like I'm the reason we're starving right now.

My legs feel pretty weak, but...

Well, there's no doubt we're starving to death.

Slowly but surely.

Starving. No fun.

All my thoughts are consumed with food.

Crazy how just that has taken over almost

My entire existence.

I'm literally starving, we're all literally starving.

Physically, I'm not doing the best.

Probably the worst I've been, I can tell I'm consuming myself,

You know.

When a male's bod fat drops below 6%,

His body starts to consume its own muscle.

But, dehydration can also cause a loss of mass.

Everything's spinning. Wow.

I'm feeling really dizzy.

When I get up or lay down, it just... Everything spins.

It would be pretty awful to have to leave right now.

We've put in so much time out here.

That would be extremely disappointing.

Yeah.

I'm disappointed that I wasn't able to secure a big game kill,

So we're going to be doing everything I can to help rus

Make it to the extraction.

We're gonna collect pots of water,

Be extremely hydrated as hydrated as we can

And just rest.

Rusty is pretty much skin and bones at this point.

He has no more body fat left, but when one of us is dog tired,

Then the other, other ones of us, you know, step in.

Back already?

That walk takes it out you.

Yeah, it does.

When one person has a hard time,

We help pick them back up and we're all gonna finish this

As a group because that's what we set out to do.

And my body is feeling empty. I mean,

You feel it all the way in your arms and you're...

Just everything's empty.

We call our tribe the feral family.

And my tribe are definitely taking care of me.

So, it is night 20.

Finally.

Tomorrow's day 21, extraction day.

I'm tired, I'm ready to move on.,

Ready to go back home to my family.

Yeah, I'm proud of us.

Excited, exhausted, cold.

I'll be much more excited after extraction tomorrow.

I just... I don't want to slow us down tomorrow

For extraction.

It'll be a zombie March in my current mental and physical state.

And, man, I can't wait to be out of this place.

Holy

I'm getting all dolled up for the boys.

Putting on our, what's this stuff called again?

- Mascara. - Eyeshadow.

Eyeshadow.

Shows much makeup I wear.

We're going for that dirty pirate hooker look.

- Here you go. - Oh, yeah, wouldn't kick me out of the boma

For eating crackers.

All right. Don't worry, we'll be dolled up for the boys tomorrow.

Holy

Oh, that is a monster one.

Yeah, it is.

Yeah.

Nasty sucker.

That would hurt like a son of a gun.

This was just crawling.

Right next to my head.

Glad she woke up before it could do anything.

So much for sleeping tonight.

Yeah.

You want to eat him?

I think we should all take a bite.

- Sounds appropriate. - I think so.

Yeah, it's not too bad.

I'm ready for day 21.

- I'm cold. - This weather's a little crummy.

- It's cold. - For me it's gonna suck.

Hopefully, we were able to warm up.

- Yeah. - I am ready to get out of here.

Today, for extraction, the weather just sucks.

Super cold.

So, I'm just thinking extraction's probably gonna be miserable.

- Check this map out before we leave the fire. - Yeah. Good idea.

There we are where our camp is.

Yeah. Extraction right here.

This weather is prime hunting for big cats.

It is. They like hunting in conditions like this,

So we really got to be mindful of those.

We can't lose sight of our safety,

Even though we're so close to getting done.

- Shall we do it? - Yeah,

Let's put this fire out.

Let's get the feral family out of here.

- Yeah. - Feral family's leaving the den.

- Skedaddle. - Goodbye, boma.

The tribe will be heading four miles northeast

Across the thorn-ridden terrain to their extraction point

In the middle of a grassy plain.

The cold will further deplet their dwindling energy level

And they'll have to be on guard for deadly vipers

And leopards that could take advantage of

The cool weather to hunt their prey.

- How many days has it been since we ate? - Seven.

I definitely feel the lack of sleep and food in my head.

Yeah.

That wind is whippin'.

Yes.

Ooh, brutally cold.

My goodness.

Man, it cuts right through you like a knife.

Especially with no body fat.

So I'm trying to haul ass in these open parts.

Yeah.

To the game trail and onward.

I can't bow, man.

Ow, knowing this ow, ow, ow. Damn it.

We're just sick of being in pain.

Seems like it's the perfect height for a big cat

To lay down and wait.

Are y'all seeing all this elephant dung?

- Yeah. - It's a lot more concentrated in here than

We've seen before.

Starting to see more and more of it.

And with that wind if it's hindering their hearing,

It's actually a little easier to sneak up on 'em unexpectedly.

It'll be a bad day to get between a mom and a baby.

- Oh, yeah. - Or around a territorial bull.

They don't like that.

And they'll let you know that they don't like that.

By killing you.

I was gonna use my hat for blocking the sun.

- Now it's keeping me warm. - For sure.

And seeing a view like this.

- Now. - Out here.

- Breathtaking. - Take a picture.

It's cool.

Yeah. Real nice.

It looks like we're gonna go down to the valley.

- Let's keep moving. - It's cold.

Yes.

- Getting dizzy. - Careful, it's easy to roll

- An ankle in this, so... - Yeah.

I just want this to be over.

- Yeah. - It's opening up.

It's gonna be a brutal walk across this field.

- Sure. - Sure.

I'll tell you that.

Hey, hey, a vehicle. Hey.

Yes.

- Oh, my god. - Yes.

- I'm excited. - Yeah.

Ooh! 21 days.

We did it.

- Whee! - We made it.

Yeah.

- Oh, goodness. - So happy.

- All y'all are warm. - Yeah.

Ooh, this is nice.

I think we all learned from each other in this experience.

When you have good teamwork people can shine

Where they have stronger skills than others.

It's a give and take relationship

And being out here, what I'm gonna miss the most

About being naked and afraid in south africa

Is my teammates.

- We're outta here. - Outta here.

- Ooh! - Whoo!

Right there.

Going into the men versus women challenge,

It was a little different for me.

But, once we merged, I really didn't see

Any gender stereotypes come up.

One big takeaway for me, women can do practically anything

A man can do and a lot of stuff better.

During this challenge, gender didn't play any part.

There's a standard and if you meet the standard

Cool, it should be the same across the board for everybody.

I think I really improved.

As long as you carry your weight, like, who gives? Who cares?

It feels pretty fantastic to be the last girl standing

In the man versus woman challenge. Feels real good.

Cheeny lost 13 pounds.

Her psr increases from 7.1 to a 7.7.

I'm disappointed that I wasn't able to secure

A big game kill, but I'm happy with how

My mental state held up.

I'm pleased with my body overall, how it handled this challenge.

Jared lost 16 pounds.

His psr goes from 6.8 to a 7.4.

South africa has bee an amazing experience.

She's also been very brutal

It just reinforces the fact that nature isn't cruel

Or kind, she just is.

And you have to deal with that.

Rusty lost 18 pounds.

His psr rises from 7.0 to a 7.6.

I'm so happy right now. I did this for

The sere community and I hope they're proud.

Honestly, I'm super gratefu for this whole experience.

But I'm also very happy that it is over.

Whoo! Feral family, we did I

- Awesome. - Yeah.
