All language subtitles for Worlds Toughest Race Eco-Challenge Fiji 0106

[Bear Grylls] Previously,
on the World's Toughest Race...

[ howling ]

58 teams still remain....

This just hurts.

Now spread out over 200 kilometers
in the rugged Fijian wilderness.

The jungle looks pretty much impenetrable.

All teams are now facing some of
the most physically demanding sections

of the entire racecourse.

This is the Eco-Challenge way.

Either you do it or go home.

After a complete disaster on Day 1...

- Whoa!
- Dan, you okay?

Team Bend Racing had made
a miraculous recovery

and are steadily climbing
the leader board.

We need to paddle our asses off.

Let's go catch some Kiwis.

Come on, Sophie.

But Team New Zealand has pulled away
to a commanding lead

by braving the night
and scaling Vuwa Falls on no sleep.

Woo hoo! Look what I found!

For us to win this race...

we sort of look for what our team
calls a "race-winning opportunity."

[Grylls] But their decision has taken
a physical toll,

and for the first time in the race,
the Kiwis are struggling.

And in last place, Team Onyx
has been separated from their captain.

Cliff's a heavier guy, so he's usually
coming up from the back, so,

on bigger hills,
we'd wait a couple of minutes.

Here you go.

He shouldn't be that far back.

Holy cow, this is... Something's not right.

Are you worried?

[ bike crashing ]

[ heavy breathing ]

We've got a team down!
A team is down!

Ah! [ whispers ] Okay.

[ exhaling ]

Tight turn, loose gravel...

fast speeds.
Not a good formula.

We need to get the bike back together.

- What do you need?
- Uh, tools, bandages.

- All right.
- All of that good stuff.

OK, what happened?

Uh, came out of the turn,
went into the ditch. Wiped out.

All right.

[Chriss] They're both on their feet.
They're both on their feet.

Don't panic. They're both on their feet.

[Sam] Hey!

Hey, are you okay?

- Um, could you check the bike?
- Yes.

- Thank you.
- Yep.

- Are you okay?
- Uh, yeah, yeah.

[Coree] He's okay.

- Where's your helmet?
- I took it off. It's there.

[ exhaling forcefully, groans ]

- You get the hand?
- [ Clifton exhaling ]

[ groans ]

Let's...

Sit down.

Your helmet is cracked. Sit down.

Sam looked at his helmet
and noticed a crack on the left side,

so, it raises concern for, you know,
a head injury or... yeah, so... not good.

[Chriss] About how fast do you think
you were going around that corner?

[Clifton] Pbbth. Twenty-five?

So, the impact was like that,

because the front handlebar
just crushed right in and slid right over.

- [Sam] We need to go that way.
- We need to go that way.

Let's go that way on foot,
because it's closer.

It will give you time to just...
whatever you need.

- And then we can figure it out from there.
- [Sam] That's a great plan.

- [Clifton] I like that plan myself.
- Perfect.

We are gonna head back to Camp 2
to get Cliff some medical attention.

As a team, we decided that health

is definitely way more important
than racing, so...

um, we will deal with it.

[Grylls] As Team Onyx
backtracks to Camp 2,

most lead teams will be moving
through Camp 3

into the most challenging
80-kilometer section of the course,

where they must first navigate
through slippery boulders

for over 12 kilometers,
to the base of Vuwa Falls.

All are looking to gain on race leaders
New Zealand,

who conquered this section overnight
and are approaching Checkpoint 23.

Look at the scale of this.

This really is the crux of the race,
this bit.

The teams are gonna be
absolutely exhausted here.

Every step is trying to trip you up.

Slippery rocks, soaking wet,

and in the end,
one of the hardest jungle sections.

And then when they see that huge,
imposing wall ahead of them,

wow, that is going to be a test
of their resilience and team spirit.

But this section will break people,
and it will see teams out of the race.

Okay, let's get up to the top of the falls.
Here we go.

We've been adventure racing
for a while now, almost 20 years.

We used to be four people with
no commitments whatsoever...

and now, we are four people
on a team with 12 kids.

We're having fun, right?

We've known each other for many
years, treat each other like family, and...

that leaves no room for complaints.

We should be approaching
the checkpoint up ahead, but...

it will take some time, of
course. This is difficult terrain.

Adventure races and expedition races...

expose your limits and...

to be honest,
you don't need to create problems,

becuase problems
always arise on their own.

Looks wrong again.

- What?
- We should have passed it.

FRAN: I think it's the one on the top.

- ALBERT: Just look at it.
- FRAN: Yes, but I think...

ALBERT: We made a mistake
by marking the wrong coordinates.

FRAN: You just follow the waterfall.

ALBERT: Yes, but the supposed
shortcut is where we just came from.

FRAN: Yes, but it wraps
around. The river wraps the...

ALBERT: Yes, but... oh.

FRAN: The river wraps the cliff.

This point is 300 meters
higher than the other one here.

It can't be.

It's impossible that it's down below.

I don't know. Decide. It's
the same to me either way.

I see here..

EMMA: What problem is there
with trying down below?

ALBERT:
No, we just think it's outside of it.

[Grylls] The Spanish Team Summit
has made a critical navigation error,

a mistake that will cost them hours.

[Emma] Normally, I do adventure racing,
and they last four, five days.

So, it's the toughest
because of the longest,

and the stages are really...

[ exhales ] painful.

Hey, we could go up this way. Look.

We need to follow this river.

It's all uphill.

Your call on what we do next.

We had the mistake that...

we lost three hours
by doing a lot of effort.

And a lot of energy was wasted there.

[ inhales ]

It scared me.

[Grylls] 90 kilometers behind,

teams in the middle of the pack are moving
from Camp 2 to Camp 3,

which includes a grueling 63-kilometer,
muddy bike climb

that leads to the class-3 rafting section.

It's probably the most physical thing
we've had to do since the...

This is pulling and pushing

and lifting your bike over a mountain

and make your way... 50 extra pounds

with beautiful Fijian mud.

There it goes.

[ bird singing ]

- Every last drop.
- That's all our water.

You want to find some?

I just told them we were out of water, and
you pull out a whole fresh water bottle?

- I got water.
- What the hell?

You're out of water. [ laughs ]

Hey, we're a team out here.

That's what you need
in a race like this,

is to be upbeat and have
a little bit of fun,

because if you don't, this jungle,
this climate, this environment

will just beat you up.

This has been really hard on our girl.

We can't help her.
We're dealing with our own... bikes and...

And we can't pull other stuff,
so she's got to do it all herself,

which is tough, she's...

a tough chick, that's for sure.

Coming!

Toughest chick
on this side of the mountain.

It was like four hours

of trying to get through this mud.

- Look at that!
- This is what I'm talking about.

Like, I was getting so worked from pushing
my bike up super steep hills full of mud,

and trying to get the mud out of my bike,

sometimes just putting it on my shoulders
and carrying it.

And I thought, "Man, this is
very physically demanding,

and I might not have what it takes
to get through this.

But I can't let the boys down."

Up here at the moment,
we've got Bend Racing,

now in 15th place
and currently approaching Camp 3.

And that's the team that earlier on went
off at that blistering pace at the start.

One of their team members got heatstroke.

We thought they were gonna be out
from being at the front,

but they're still going,

and to see them up here
at this stage of the race

is a real testament to grit.

I am pretty excited about
how many places we've come up from

when we dropped back so far,

and just continued to, like,

to chip away and keep working
and stay within our game, and...

- [Jason] Now we get to keep chasing.
- Yeah.

And since our blowup on the first day,

it's been fun, because we, you know,
obviously, it wasn't what we planned,

but once Dan got healthy, it was just like,
we're in chase mode.

[Jason]
How many teams can we chase down?

It's really hard to be the weakest link,

but it also feels really good to be pushed

and to be performing to try to get
as much ground under us as possible.

[ strains ]

We're ready to dig in.

Yeah, I think this is an important part
of the race

to keep in mind that we're still gonna be
out here for quite a while,

and so, the call to get a little help
with the packs and stuff,

I think, was really smart.

I'm the old guy on the team.
Got horrible arthritis in one hip,

I've got another fake hip,

two cracked ribs.

I don't need to be going that fast.

Just about a month ago, I broke two ribs.

And first thing the doctor said is,
"You're done."

Like, no "Eco."

You know, like any real, like,
long-term athletes

who've been training for something
for a long time

will tell you that's not the best option.

You know, I'm feeling better.

Like, every day gets exponentially better.

And my team knows,
and they're all super supportive,

so, that's, you know,
we're going to factor that in.

I'm going to be really honest
with where I'm at, but, you know...

We're here.
So, we're gonna give it our best.

- Man, this trek is brutal!
- Yeah.

These rocks are really, really slippery.

[ thud ] Aw!

[ Jason groans ]

Hold up! Yo!

I need help!

I don't like to suffer,
but I like to suffer with a purpose.

If I stop being competitive,

then I just feel all the pain
that's going on in my body.

I just f_____ up my rib.

Yeah. I mean, I'm going to keep going fast,
I just don't, like...

I know.

[Jason] Let's go.

We're just gonna keep pushing, because
that's why this sport exists for us,

to teach us about ourselves
while we're out there.

It's what gets you close to all those edges
and over them,

so that you have to react and adapt.

- I landed right on my back.
- [Stephen] I saw your feet sticking up.

[Jason] I didn't hear a crack or anything.

It just really hurt.

[Grylls] 15 kilometers ahead...

[ bird trilling ]

teams are reaching
the base of Vuwa Falls.

With 450 kilometers of
the World's Toughest Race behind them,

this death-defying climb
will push teams to their limits.

The other teams are gonna come up here,

and on top of this,

somewhere,

is that fourth medallion.

Yeah, this is a soul-destroying climb.

And at this point, if they can do this,

this is the tipping point.

Because right here, really,
is the crux of the World's Toughest Race.

After being lost for hours
on the trek from Camp 3,

Team Summit finally emerges
at the base of Vuwa Falls...

The leaders?

But are now trailing
both New Zealand teams,

Australia, and Canada.

Right now, we are in 5th.

What it means is that we
are on the top five, but...

I'm happy, but I would like to...

improve a little, if I can.

If we cannot, then maintain.

But...

Fight 'til the end.

Never give up, so...

we will do this.

[Grylls] Before attempting
this daunting climb,

Fran takes a moment to remind himself
of what matters most.

My kids... my three kids here.

My girlfriend.

My sister, who died of cancer last year.

And my mom at the hospital with my sister.

These just give me more motivation.

I just look at them here and
there, and they brighten my day.

Each day, you start to miss everything.

You miss your family, your friends...

everything.

And, well, this is a good
way to keep them close.

CAMERA OP: And what if
something goes wrong, like...

CAMERA OP: You don't
get upset with each other?

No, what for?

There's a Chinese proverb that says...

"If your problem has a solution,
why get angry?

If it does not, why get angry?"

There's no need for that.

[Grylls] Team Summit is exhausted
from their costly navigation error.

But in order to stay in the lead pack,

they must dig deep
and somehow find the strength

to overcome
the most physically-draining section...

Oh... Whoa!

That they've faced so far.

[Emma] In this special race,
the stages are...

[ exhales ] You suffer a lot.

Why is it so complicated?

[Emma] So, it's like, "Come on, push you
more harder, harder, harder."

What will be your limit?

What will be your top and say, "No more,"

or say, "F___ you," or say whatever?

If you can ask me,
"Are you going to repeat an Eco-Challenge?"

If it's like this, never again.

[ laughs ] It's so hard.

[Grylls] As Summit pushes towards the peak,

several other lead teams begin their
thousand-foot descent of Vuwa Falls...

Why don't you take it,
and I'll take the one next to it?

All chasing Team New Zealand,

hoping the front runners
will have to stop for rest,

and they can make up precious time.

It's a long way up,

and I still can't see the top.

Just... have to keep going.

Well done. Oh, my God. [ laughs ]

Dios mío.

Why did we do this, no?

What is the answer? Tell me.

- Why?
- [ Bear laughs ]

Why we cannot stay at home or go
to the beach or just stay in the resort?

You are amazing.

- No.
- And from here...

you can do a last push through the jungle,

hard bit of jungle now,
but then it's like downhill, you know?

And we do mistakes, because we are tired.

I just keep on going, keep on going,
push hard, push hard, and...

- Nunca te rindes.
- Never give up.

[ speaking Spanish ]
No, you cannot give up.

- [ speaking Spanish ] Never ever.
- Nunca jamás.

That's why it's the World's Toughest Race.
And you are an inspiration.

- Thank you.
- Don't want to hold you up.

[Grylls] After a sleepless night
conquering Vuwa Falls

and the freezing pools that followed,

Team New Zealand got a much-needed
3 hours of rest at Checkpoint 23.

But the leaders are still
absolutely exhausted

as they push forward to another grueling
stand-up paddle section.

Well done, my friend. You did so well.

We're just cheering you on
and following every second.

- Oh, cheers, thank you.
- You can do this.

- Yeah, yeah.
- You can do this.

I mean, what you... what you guys
are achieving is beyond extraordinary.

You're over that tipping point.
And are you feeling okay?

- Did you get a good rest?
- Really good rest, thanks.

Even 3 hours can sort of feel like,
you know, a whole night's sleep.

[Sophie] That was a really challenging
stage that was really physically taxing.

You couldn't really get your heart rate up
to warm up.

You know,
I did have some mild hypothermia.

I can't recall being that cold for
such an extended period of time before.

So, when you're telling young guys how
to be top of the game in adventure racing,

what do you recommend, Nathan?

For me in these races, it's always about
just sort of personal health

and, you know, if he runs individually
looking after their health

and making sure their feet are okay,
and they're eating and drinking and...

everyone needs to be, like,
super committed

to pushing hard
and enduring some suffering.

[Grylls] So, after resting for 3 hours,

New Zealand's once-commanding lead
has now dwindled to under one hour,

so, they've got to push hard
on the paddle boards

to regain some separation.

All-time world's greatest adventure racer,

leading his team, out in front,

calm, polite, efficient, smart.

And strong as hell.

The Kiwis are the first team to embark

on this strenuous 20-kilometer
standup paddle section...

which is followed by
a 40-kilometer highlands trek...

leading to the final camp of the race.

As the leaders push hard towards Camp 4...

falling even further into last place,

Team Onyx continues their journey
backtracking to Camp 2,

where team captain Cliff can receive
medical attention from his crash

and be reunited with his assistant crew
and daughter Mikayla.

It was like a catcher's glove.

The ditch just kind of
caught me in the side.

Had it not been there, stuff would have
been strewn all through the jungle.

I feel a focus on Cliff
and what's going on with him,

because, you know, we want him to be okay,
we want them to say he's okay

and then want him to rest and heal
and do what he needs to do,

but at the end of the day,
it's human life, and...

it matters a lot.

CHRISS:
Let me tell you where my mind is at.

CLIFTON: Okay, stop.

- [Coree] Thank you.
- [Chriss] Okay?

Walking up the hill, we already started
thinking about "This race is over for us."

Death. This race isn't over
until the athlete says, "I can't race."

- I'm not saying that.
- Or medical says you can't race

or they can't source a helmet.

In my mind, if the athlete wants
to continue to race,

and medical says it's clear
to continue to race,

we can source another helmet,
I would like to continue racing.

If I were you, I would not continue
under any circumstance.

- I hear you.
- [Sam] It's head trauma.

That doesn't heal the same way as the body.

It'll affect you forever
if you don't really take care of it.

- [Clifton] I hear you.
- Okay.

I'm gonna want to go.
If you don't feel comfortable, I'm good.

- I will respect your wishes. Okay?
- [Sam] Okay.

My only concern would be, you know, like,
what if he's okay today,

and then we get out in the mountain
somewhere,

- and then you're not okay.
- Yep. Okay.

- Okay.
- [Sam] Let's go see it, then.

- Cool.
- [Sam] Let's get you checked out.

He's pushing the bike.

Yes, it's somebody I care about;
yes, it's my teammate,

but now he is the patient.

And I have to address his needs
and make sure he's okay.

[ thunder ]

[Grylls] As Team Onyx backtracks
towards Camp 2,

160 kilometers ahead,

teams that have just climbed Vuwa Falls
now move into a taxing river section.

This is proving one of
the most unforgiving paths

of the whole of the World's Toughest Race.

Higher elevation, a lot of deep pools,
and cold.

We've seen the Spanish team clear
the top of the falls.

They're going to be
entering this stage now.

Let's hope they keep moving, keep warm,
and keep strong,

for this is gonna reduce people, I know it.

For the next 8 kilometers,

they must swim
through bone-chilling waterways,

and the dense jungles serve as a barricade

that keep them submerged
for most of the route.

[ thunder ]

Today... [ shivering ]

a nightmare.

[Emma] It's cold.

[ Emma shivering ]

We are tired.

And also, we got lost.

[ thunder ]

[ speaking Spanish ]

[Grylls] Ahead of Team Summit

and chasing New Zealand,

Team Canada Adventure
have just conquered

this difficult and freezing
swimming section...

[Rea] Where's the warming hut?

And are rewarded with some relief
at Checkpoint 22.

[Rea] Food?!

- Coffee.
- Oh, my God.

We were borderline hypothermic off and on
for, like, the last 2 hours.

We're just so depleted,
and the water was so cold.

Yeah, that was brutal.

[Rea] Yeah, um, it was hard.

It was probably the most miserable
I've been so far

and probably the most miserable
I've been ever [ laughs ].

So, that's quite an achievement. [ laughs ]

Our goal is to push ourselves
physically and mentally,

and, you know, really explore our limits.

If it rains on the teams coming through
over the next few days,

there is gonna be
serious carnage in there.

I think they'll be pulling teams out
like crazy.

[Bob]
We are definitely chasing New Zealand.

- Ow.
- Sorry, sorry, sorry. Sorry.

We are going to push to try and catch them.

We've got a shot, you know.

Let's take the sucker down.

Thanks again, guys.

[Rea] Sounds good!

[ thunder ]

[ heavy rain starts ]

[Grylls] With temperatures dropping
even lower

and still hours from the warming hut,

Team Summit's mental and physical strength
are being tested.

[ thunder and lightning ]

[ shivering ]

Emma?

I'm putting on my Gortex...

and then I'll come there.

[ exhaling loudly ]

[ shivering ]

How much longer?

How long is it?

[Emma]
When the rain came, it was the hell...

[ thunder ]

because of the cold, because
I was feeling really... really bad.

[ thunder ]

[ Emma straining ]

And my teammates were in front,
and I couldn't see the finish.

And I said, "Oh my God, I cannot do it."

This is the first adventure race
that I have the feeling of...

arriving to a limit in my
mental and physical strength.

It scared me. It scared me a lot.

[ thunder ]

[Grylls] 35 kilometers ahead,

Team New Zealand is powering through
the standup paddle section.

There you go, you're looking at
the special forces of adventure racing.

Arrow formation, wind on their backs.

They are powering down this lake now.

Keep going.

[Grylls] 'Cause they have got
an awful long way to go.

The whole length of this lake.

Something like 30-plus kilometers.

Paddling when they are so drained already.

They have this relentless resilience
and determination to never give up,

and that's one of the most potent weapons
in their arsenal.

New Zealand's 4-hour lead from this morning
has been cut down to under an hour,

as Team Gippsland Adventure
is nipping at their heels,

as they're now entering the lake
for the standup paddleboard...

Shouldn't be too bad, as long
as there's not a headwind.

Followed closely behind
by Team Canada Adventure,

who have just arrived at Checkpoint 23.

With plenty of race left to go,
anything could happen.

Well, we got pretty lucky.
We didn't have as much rain.

We got through, like, three quarters of it
before the rain hit.

- Right.
- So, it was just a lot of water.

That was real nasty.

[Grylls] 40 kilometers
behind the lead teams,

Bend Racing has made it past Camp 3
and are moving towards Vuwa Falls.

Team captain Jason has managed
to push through his rib pain,

but the team is now lost
in the same section

that Team Summit struggled with
earlier today.

There's no way up that.

Oh, yeah, over here.

What?

Yeah, that way.

Here we go. Nice work.

We had a huge nav error,

just 'cause we kind of panicked about
getting to the climb site before dark

and just moved too fast.

- [Jason] What's our bearing?
- West.

What? We're going west?

You're tired, and you're a little bit tired
of each other sometimes.

We want to go this way. Right?

I don't know.

[Stephen] This is not a great spot to stop.

I think we need to go back up there.

I mean, unless we catch, like, this trail,
'cause see this trail here?

Stephen is very analytical,

so he likes to understand everything
and every choice.

So, that's that creek, right?

- Dude, this is totally the...
- I think we're at one of these.

So, when we started to get lost,

he demands a high level of confidence,
if he's gonna follow somebody.

And so, when I lost that,

we had to take some time to sit there
and have these conversations

so that I could convince him, you know,
that I was worthy of being followed,

even though I had just made them
wander around for hours in the wrong place.

So, we definitely don't want to go too far.

- We're about a K from these powerlines.
- Right.

I just don't wanna go south too far.

[Grylls]
Even with Jason's navigation issues,

Bend Racing hopes to make it
to Vuwa Falls before dark.

Team Onyx has backtracked
all the way to a now empty Camp 2,

and injured team captain Cliff
is reunited with his assistant crew

and daughter, Mikayla.

One of the crew members
came over and said,

"Somebody on your team
has fallen off of their bike,

and they're coming back here."

- You want a chair?
- Uh, yeah, that'd be great.

And my gut reaction was like,
"Oh, it' s my dad."

[ voice breaking ] Um...

Sorry.

You look dazed.

I'm good. I'm good.

You know you were concussed recently.

And I could just
see in his eyes that, like,

he just looked off.

Um, Mikayla's concern is that I had
a concussion about three months ago.

[medic] You did?

Did you hit your head?

[Clifton] I don't know if I've had
a lot of concussions,

but I did suffer one
about three or four months ago,

you know, in a bike accident as well.

And so, I've made this decision

not only just for me
and the team that I'm racing with

but just making sure that I make
the best decision.

Any blurred vision when I'm doing that?

- There was.
- Okay, where was that?

When you were going down on my left side.

I'm not the ego-driven, you know,
you're a guy, you're a Marine,

stand up, be strong.

Our advice would be
that you enter hospital...

just to keep an eye on you.

Normally it's for about, sort of,
12 to 24 hours.

You would be with people who would be able
to recognize a worsening head injury

and be able to do a CT scan.

- If needed.
- If required.

[Grylls] The medics can't diagnose
a concussion in the field

but advise Cliff to seek further evaluation
at the local hospital.

However, the decision to continue racing
is up to Cliff and his team.

Everything on the left side of my head
is muffled right now.

So, even though they can't make the call
that it's a concussion,

I think that's what it sounds...
That's literally what it means.

[Sam] So, what do you want to do?

I don't want to get you guys
out in the middle of the jungle

and not be able to do it.

[Sam] Okay.

[Clifton, voice breaking] If I'm not thinking
clearly, then I'm not leading my team.

And if I'm not doing that,
I'm not being a captain, so...

So, at times, you have to...

change who and how you are.

For what's best for the team.

- [Coree] I respect you 100%.
- [Sam] Same here.

And, honestly, I mean, your health
is way more important than a race.

I'm glad we got to do
what we got to do together so far,

and we're still in Fiji.

- [Coree] Yeah. Yes, we are.
- [Clifton] Okay?

I feel for them.
I feel for the team. I feel for my dad.

This race for him was
13 years in the making.

But even though it didn't end
the way he wanted it to,

I'm incredibly proud of my dad...

because representation
is the biggest thing for us.

As an LGBT black woman,

I know how important that is.

And, um, you're probably making
a difference for a lot of people,

and that's what matters.

[Sam] I think regardless
of whether we finish the race or not,

we came here to be the people who we are

and to show the world who we are.

- Sam, thank you, thank you.
- [ Sam laughs ]

- Thanks for momming me.
- Mm-hmm.

[Sam] Just...

just being the person you are
is always enough. [ whimpers ]

[ sighs ]

So...

I guess that's important to say.

You're enough. Each one of us is enough.

All right.

[Clifton] We came here on a mission...

to make sure that those people
who feel marginalized,

unseen, underrepresented,

and not only the outdoors,
but in society as a whole,

feel that they have a voice.

So, Team Onyx was really here
to create that voice.

Unfortunately, we didn't get to the heights
that we wanted to

in order to promote that message
and finish this race,

but we still accomplished our mission.

We are the first all-African-American team
to ever be in an Eco-Challenge.

We may be the first,
but we don't want to be the last.

Yes, we do belong in adventure racing.
We belong in everything.

You know, you just haven't seen us yet,
but we're coming.

We have started something.

[Grylls]
Back at the pools above Vuwa Falls,

Team Summit has struggled for hours,

swimming through the freezing water.

Both Emma and Fran are now
on the brink of hypothermia.

Emma...

[Emma] I'm coming, I'm coming.

What a nightmare.

What kind of person would do this?

[Emma] It was really tough,
this section with the river...

the slippery rocks.

[ breathing heavily ]

Then the cold water...

so unpleasant.

[ thunder ]

Albert and Jukka managed to find a trail
between the...

the trees, the jungle,

and they... they found one,
and we were lucky.

We could avoid the last swims.

Ahh!

Fran was really in a unhealthy state.

[ straining ]

[Emma] In that point, we didn't know,
is he going to quit right now,

or do we put the shelter and tarp and say,

"Let's ask for help"?

[ thunder ]

[ Fran cries out ]

[Grylls] As the sun sets on Day 5
of the World's Toughest Race,

over 200 kilometers behind the leaders,

Team Tabu Soro has stopped
near Checkpoint 15

to wait for their friends from Team Namako.

But the fellow Fijians
are nowhere in sight.

The river is quite refreshing,
so that's good.

But we are worried about...

the other Fiji team, Namako,

because they left
about an hour and a half before us,

and they're not here yet.

So, we think they took a wrong turn
somewhere...

which is not good.

Right now, just starting to...
not "starting," already,

miss the family and all the kids.

[ sighs ]

I'm counting the days.
Today's day number 5,

and, uh... can't wait to reach
the finish line and go home and...

give them all a hug.

Maybe that's Namako.

That's them?

Yeah, yeah. We made it.

[Anna] Whew!
Tremendous sense of relief.

- [man] What happened?
- We made a mistake.

It's all right, bruh.

We're here now. We're here together, bruh.

When anyone needs a hand,
we stop and wait for the other team

and neither of the teams'
got anything to prove, so...

Fiji's got one big team.

It's got eight people in it.

That's how we roll.

[Anna] I don't think
we're gonna make this cutoff.

We will make the cutoff. Don't worry.

That's the worst-case scenario.

- All right. Let's go.
- Let's go.

Slow and steady, yeah?

[Grylls] The Fijian teams
are planning to work together

to cross the finish line...

but they are still 100 kilometers
from the Camp 3 cutoff,

which is 46 hours from now.

Already past Camp 3,

Team Bend Racing put their faith
in Captain Jason's navigation,

but they've been lost all day long
in the difficult terrain

leading up to Vuwa Falls...

and the team is reaching a breaking point.

Yes, I can say I made a horrible nav error.

I feel horrible.

I want to apologize to all of you and...

I appreciate... I appreciate
hearing you say that,

but I'm not... we don't need to unpack
sorries and stuff like that.

If you don't want to follow me,
I understand that, all right?

I want to know what...
I want to see what the plan is.

[Jason] Where's the map?

Sit down with me, okay?

I assumed...

[Stephen] Which is K.
[Jason] Yes.

[Stephen] I feel like you're desperately
trying to... to fix this,

and I don't feel like we're being honest
about how lost we are.

Okay.

And I've lost
all of my confidence in us...

knowing where we are.

It's the stuff that I teach people to do
if they're lost on a river.

Right, and I feel like you teach people
that if they were this far gone,

and they had made this many poor choices,

that they should get some rest
and wait 'til daylight

before they say that they're 100% certain
about anything.

I want to... I want to get rest.

Like, I'm not suggesting we go now, at all.

We're gonna move faster, like,

the best race thing to do
is to get some sleep,

move faster in the daytime,

and, like, not have

this horrible feeling
that we all have right now.

- Yeah.
- Right?

Um, we just got to decide
if we're gonna stick together

and... and figure this out and fix it.

Fix it and move forward.

We're sleeping first, or we're going in?

- [Melissa] Sleeping.
- [Jason] No, we're sleeping.

Let's get a dry top on or something.

Yeah, dry top, dry pants. I'm freezing.

[Melissa] We love you, J.

- Yeah, I love you guys too.
- [Melissa] It's okay.

Don't... Don't get mad; get even.

Heh! I love you too, Jay.

I just don't want to keep getting lost
out here.

Nobody likes being lost.

[ thunder ]

[Grylls] In the darkness around Vuwa Falls,

Team Summit avoided some freezing water,

by bushwhacking through the jungle.

Emma has managed to recover somewhat.

But teammate Fran
is now in a critical state.

[ thunder claps ]

This is life and death,

and to keep moving is their only chance.

[ in Spanish ] We are very wet...

and we've been going on for hours.

We left at 3:30 a.m.

Had we reached the top by
now, we would have stopped...

put our tarp down
and taken our clothes off...

put on whatever dry clothes
we had, and been together.

It's a disaster.

That's why, when you have hypothermia...

to stop is to die.

[Grylls] In desperate need of help,

Team Summit finally reaches
the warming hut.

[Dr. Carachi] Now, let's get your gear off.
Now, listen to me.

We need to get your wet stuff off.

Listen to me. Listen.

- You're okay. You're safe just now.
- You're okay.

Listen to me. You're going to be okay.

Nick, can you please get the hot blanket
out of the front of the thing?

It's the very front thing, okay?

[Dr. Carachi] Okay, let's get this
stuff off, and I need a towel as well.

- What's his name, please?
- [Albert] Fran. Fran.

Fran? Fran, sit up. That's it.

- [Dr. Carachi] Okay. All right.
- [Dr. Thorne] Thank you.

How long has he been like this?

- Like one hour.
- Okay.

Can we get a hot drink or something,
please? With a bit of sugar in it?

It's cocoa, so it's sugar and cocoa.

[Dr. Carachi] Listen, bud. Listen.

Come on. Come on here.
There we go.

I need you to sit up for me.

Okay. Will you take a hot drink just now?

- Yeah, that wet stuff needs to come off.
- Okay.

Watch yourself.

Okay. Listen.

- I need you to take it easy.
- [Dr. Thorne] You're okay.

Okay. Okay.

[Fran struggling]

You want to try and see if he gets it?

He has cramps. He has cramps.

Cramps? Okay.

[woman]
Just try and drink something for me.

[Dr. Carachi] So, there's different stages
to hypothermia.

The first stage is
you shiver as a response,

but as you get colder and colder,
you lose the ability to shiver.

And your conscious level can decrease.

I need to get him into this blanket
as much as possible.

[Emma] Fran, te ponemos
en una manta de sobrevivencia.

[Dr. Carachi] Fran, we've got
a sleeping bag here for you, mate.

Okay.

And, ultimately, if you become very cold,
then you can develop heart arrythmias

and can die as a result of that.

- Right now, he's...
- [Emma] No, we are going to wait here.

- Yeah, yeah.
- [Emma] And see how he recovers.

[Emma] And we will decide on the daylight.

[Dr. Carachi] Okay. All right, sure.

- Right now, he's too cold, and...
- [Emma] No, no, no. Completely.

And we have to thaw,
and after one hour, two, three, four...

- Yeah.
- We decide.

Right now, his conscious level is impaired,
you know, I think.

- So, it's quite soon...
- No, no.

You're right, though.
We'll see how he gets on. Okay?

- All right. Thanks.
- Thank you.

I'm just gonna take a blood sugar reading
from his finger.

A sharp prick coming up, okay?

[Fran struggling]

- [Emma] Vamos, Fran.
- [ Fran yells ]

[Dr, Thorne] You're all right.
You're all right.

[ yells loudly ]

- [Dr. Thorne] You're okay. There we go.
- [ Fran groans ]

[Emma]
Now we're going to rest here a little.

We are going to see how he evolves.

And... and... see what to do.

Difficult and hard.

[ roaring ]
