[ Animal growling in distance ]

- Get up!
- What? What?

There.

Crap.

We can hear him.

[ Grunts ]

[ Woman screams ]

[ Man shouts ]

- Nice!
- Yeah!

Narrator: Over five seasons,

the 40-day "Naked
and Afraid XL" challenge

has pitted the world's
strongest survivalists

against nature's most
terrifying creatures.

From the open waters
of the South China sea...

It's a miserable place.

Narrator: To the dense
jungle of the Amazon...

Woman: What the hell?

Narrator: And the
sun-soaked African Savanna.

Man: There's blood on
rocks and splattered on trees.

That could be my blood.

I think we need
to get going y'all.

Narrator: Brave men and
women have come face-to-face

with the deadliest
beasts on the planet...

We can hear him.

Narrator: And
live to tell about it.

[ Man shouts ]

Aah!

Did you guys hear that?

Narrator: In the next hour,

survivalists from
all five seasons

look back at their most
memorable animal encounters...

You go from eating the
buffet to being the buffet.

Man: Holy [bleep]

Narrator: To learn more
about how these predators react

when uninvited guests
move into their kill zone...

Carrie: There are lions
right at our water source.

We absolutely
overstayed our welcome.

Narrator: And how
animals of prey adapt

to outwit their
would-be hunters.

Shane: The crocodiles
are learning our patterns

while we learn theirs.

Narrator: Now, through new
interviews and unseen footage,

the survivalists revisit
their most epic kills...

I always want to
give that animal

the true respect it deserves.

Narrator: Heartbreaking
failures... Alyssa: Snare!

Oh, [bleep]

He's off.

And heart-stopping close calls.

[ Animal growls ]

[Bleep]

[ Woman screams ]

[ Animal growling ]

There's more dangerous
animals out here

than any place I've
ever been in the world,

so I'm not gonna
lie, it's nerve-racking.

Damn! Look at that elephant.

Steven: Seeing these
giraffes and these lions,

it can be very intimidating.

Oh, my god. That is so crazy.

Jake: Doing a
challenge in Africa,

you are in this environment

where you have animals that
are familiar with the terrain,

and they're hungry.

You are no longer top predator.

Woman: Holy [bleep]
look at this skull.

Matt w.: Those piranhas,
man, the teeth on those things.

- They're nasty.
- They're everywhere, too.

I mean, every square
inch of this water

would have a chance of piranha.

Matt: The absolute
moment when you strip down

in these environments,

as soon as your
feet touch the ground,

you just realize, "I'm not
at the top of the food chain."

Amber: This is like
reality setting in, guys.

Giovanna: There definitely
were predators around us.

We saw scratch marks in trees.

We saw the Jaguar.

- Whoa.
- What is that?

Okay.

The locals think no one
could survive out here.

There are sea snakes
out here that'll kill you.

I mean, one bite, you're dead.

It's not out of the challenge.

It's at the graveyard.

When you step out
into a place like Africa

where the predators
are more aggressive

than any predators on earth,

and they see you walking,
they're actually hunting.

Melissa: I'm seeing
so many bones.

It's just like, you know
there's a lot of carnivores.

There's a lot of
meat eaters out here.

You can just see it.

They know we're here.

Narrator: From day 1
of the 40-day challenge,

the survivalists are never
more than a step away

from a deadly encounter,

a lesson Jake
learned all too well

on a solo scouting
mission in Africa.

It's a little sketchy

walking around in
very tall reeds out here

with lots of things
that want to eat me.

I was walking up this ravine.

You could tell it
used to be a riverbed.

And there was prints
of all sorts of animals.

Holy [bleep]

That's crazy.

Elephant print.

That's a big-ass foot, could
do some serious stomping.

Kind of amazed me
that these huge animals

were down in this
very tight ravine.

And at this point, I'm in
reeds that are chest-high,

and you can't see a
foot or two ahead of you.

I don't need to be seeing
a whole ton of elephants,

a whole ton of
lions or leopards.

Just give me, like, soft,
edible gazelle for days.

I was trying to make
noise and talk regularly.

I know hiking in bear territory,

that's what you're
supposed to do

so you don't startle anything.

But apparently, I wasn't
talking loud enough.

[Bleep]

What the [bleep] were you?

A foot or two ahead of me,

something ginormous
jumped out of the reeds

and took off to the right.

Geez.

And that's why I don't like
being in low reeds, right there.

Holy smokes.

I felt all the blood
rush off my body.

It was one of those
poo-you-pants moments,

if you will.

And, yeah, heart just
pounding out of the chest.

I found out about
six months later,

it turned out it was a leopard.

Narrator: The leopard is
an opportunistic hunter,

able to adapt to
its various habitats.

Weighing up to 200 pounds

with a top speed
of 36 miles per hour,

this lone hunter is among
the deadliest of cats.

Jake: A leopard can tear
you to shreds in no time,

especially one that
you almost step on.

And, you know, I
was very fortunate

that it took off in the
opposite direction.

And, I mean, the only
thing I can think is,

you know, he was
intimidated by me.

Look at this. I don't blame him.

Narrator: Despite the dangers,

the search for
food and resources

forces the survivalists
into predatory areas

that would otherwise be avoided,

especially the
shark-filled waters

of the South China sea.

- Whoo.
- Wow.

Come on, guys.

Making that swim was
not the easiest thing to do.

James: Even though we had a raft

to kind of keep our
head above water,

in the back of your
mind, you're thinking,

"there's still sharks out here."

You can't see the bottom.

You have no idea
what's lurking around you.

Narrator: The South China sea

is home to 94
different shark species,

including man-killers
like bull sharks

who hunt in pairs and attack
humans in shallow water

with no provocation.

We're getting into
open water here.

[Bleep]

- Holy crap!
- [Bleep] I can see him.

James: Keep swimming.

You keep paddling.

You have to put a
mental block on it

and not think about it,

'cause if it's
coming, it's coming.

Gabrielle: Oh, [bleep]

Oh, my god!

James: Look out!

Duke: Oh, god.

- Can you see it?
- No, it's gone.

- Wow.
- [Bleep]

Sharks out here
take you out like that.

Those things are deadly.

It's a little bit
terrifying, isn't it?

We should keep our eyes peeled.

Oh, listen.

[Bleep]

I think it would be safer
for us to walk up here

'cause just like [bleep] think.

This is where,
like, lions stalk.

Narrator: Male African
lions normally prefer

to keep their
distance from people,

but will attack if
provoked or hungry,

and they're responsible for
around 250 human deaths a year.

In South Africa,

less than 12 hours
into their challenge,

three survivalists
receive terrifying proof

of the deadly
possibilities of lion attacks.

Lindsey: I think
when you're out there

and from a survivalist
point of view,

it's easy to almost
be lulled into

a false sense of
security at times.

Fat lion paw print.

Really?

David: So, the crew is
getting ready to set up

and shoot Lindsey,
kaila, and Melissa

as they build their boma,

their first shelter on night 1,

and all of a sudden, this
white truck bounces in,

and it's anelda,
our game ranger.

And she says she has
something important

to say to the cast.

If the rangers have
to do something

to protect the cast or crew,

they get to do it,
no questions asked.

What she told them
was pretty scary.

The problem, sometimes,
with man-eating big cats is

if they develop a
taste for human blood,

which is often sweeter

than the blood they're
getting from game animals,

they can choose to go that
route more often than not.

Lindsey: She really had to
kind of smack us around and say,

"girls, I mean,
they're brother lions

that have already
killed two people.

You don't get a
warning from them."

Yeah, no, no. We know.

Anelda: I think you girls
should focus on your boma.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Kaila: We didn't
even think about it,

but we didn't put
any thorns on the top,

and we had anelda say to us,

"these lions can jump
right in on top of you."

Kaila: This whole
wall, we need to fill in.

We still have all of this.

Our boma's not even
close to being finished.

There's just not enough time.

Narrator: By
day, a lion's vision

is comparable to
that of a human,

but as darkness falls,

their vision becomes
eight times sharper

than that of the human eye,

giving these powerful cats
an even bigger advantage.

Melissa: We have to
keep the flame all night long

because that is what
the lions are Afraid of.

It just gets so incredibly
dark out there at night,

and you never
know what's out there

lurking by your boma,
waiting to eat you.

This is real, this is Africa,

and you can get
eaten by lions out here.

- Lindsey.
- Yeah?

- What did we just hear?
- We just heard a lion.

Narrator: The chuffing
sound is how one or more lions

communicate to each other,

and at night, it helps
coordinate their attack.

Kaila: It was absolutely crazy.

And we were kind of stupid, too,

because we built our
boma by this ledge.

You know, they could have
just jumped in on top of us

the whole entire time.

[ Lions roaring softly ]

[ Shouting ]

[ Animal squeals ]

Got him.

Rylie: Christina,
what's on your back?!

Aah! Aah!

[Bleep]

Narrator: In five seasons
of "Naked and Afraid XL,"

nature's most
intimidating animals

have kept the survivalists
on edge day and night.

In the Amazon, the
dense canopy of trees

blocks light from
the moon and stars

from reaching the ground,

wrapping a terrifying
blanket of darkness

around the survivalists
and beasts of the jungle.

Matt: The dark of night on
"XL" is absolutely incredible.

There are times
where it is so dark,

you literally cannot see
anything in front of your face,

it's blinding dark.

There is no camera crew there.

There's nobody
on guard watching.

You are by yourself,
you are solo,

and you are in pitch dark

like you've never
seen before in your life.

Russell: What the
[Bleep] was that?

Did you hear that [bleep]?

Yeah, it did, dude.

Russell and I are in the Amazon.

We literally had a large cat

jump up and
stalk right up to us.

Something's out there.

Hold on, man.

Let me get my [bleep]damn spear.

Whatever it was
[Bleep] growled at us.

It's out there right now.
You can hear it walking.

Knowing that you're
not the top dog out there

and hearing a cat walk around,

it definitely had me
puckering for a little bit.

Narrator: Of all the threats
"XL" survivalists can encounter,

predatory cats boast the most
highly developed sense of smell

thanks to a special
olfactory organ

on the roof of their mouths

called the Jacobson's organ.

It pounced about two
or... [ animal growls softly ]

- You hear that?
- Yeah.

[ Animal growls softly ]

Matt: It's growling
just feet away,

and all Russell and I can do

is hope that, you know,
we didn't become dinner.

- It's paws.
- Dude, it's walking over here.

Russell: You don't hear
[Bleep] breaking over there?

I would pay thousands of
dollars right now for a flashlight.

You know these [bleep]
can see good at night, right?

[ Animal growls softly ]

Matt: It just
snuck off, crept off.

That thing came out of nowhere.

I wasn't as worried
as Russell after that cat

because Russell's small.

Cat was gonna eat him
way before it's gonna eat me,

so all I know is I got to
be faster than Russell.

And I had one hand on his back.

I'm like, "I got you buddy,"

in case I got to
throw him forward.

[ Chuckles ]

[ Animal calling ]

- What do you got?
- Impala.

We get lunch today.

Narrator: The joy of bringing
fresh meat back to camp

is a great morale booster...
What do you guys think?

Should we cook it and
eat what we can or...?

I think we should
enjoy it a little bit...

Mm-hmm. =...Smoke some of it.

Narrator: But fresh meat can
also create a fresh set of problems.

Trent: I don't think we should
have that in here tonight.

Trent: Night 3, we were
smoking some of that impala.

It's necessary to keep
a smoke on it all night.

Otherwise, the meat has a
chance of just going rotten.

Jeremy: Safety is being
compromised for sure.

Hyenas break through bomas.

I'm completely
disagreeing with this.

Gary: You don't process meat
in Africa when the sun is setting.

You bury it as quick as possible

because it can
attract hyenas at night.

Jeremy: I think
it's worth the risk.

Hyenas are so persistent.

They'll pluck at that boma,

and they'll try to figure
out how to pull pieces off

and get their head in there.

Me, Jeremy, and
Trent... the wolf pack...

Gary: Hyenas and
the lions are not shy

about approaching
humans at night.

In fact, that's an
opportune time.

That's when they
really are out to kill you.

[ Indistinct noise ]

What the hell?

[ Shouting ]

[ Snorting ]

[ Animal growls softly ]

Jeff: The night vision camera
captured a Jaguar-type feline

coming right into camp,
and it was sniffing us.

It was sniffing our food.

It was thinking about

whether or not we
would be a good meal.

- What?
- Get up!

What? What?

[Bleep] Cat.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Jeff: In all the seasons
of "Naked and Afraid,"

we've never really seen a
wild animal come into camp

and sniff the
survivalists before.

But we've also never
seen a 6-foot electric eel

cooking over the fire as
three men slept around it.

Through the trees, 12:00.

Jeff: [ Whooping, shouting ]

But now he knows we're here.

Jeff: Was it our fault? Yeah.

Was it worth it?

Oh, yeah.

Narrator: Coming up...

Ryan: Go, go, go, go,
go! [ Warthog squealing ]

- Do you see the eyes?
- Where?

Straight [bleep] ahead of you.

Narrator: Despite
the many threats

posed by the beasts of
"Naked and Afraid XL,"

there is a point where
the need for food

turns the hunted
into the hunters.

In season 2, Angel,
Steven, and Ryan

were able to snare
a monitor lizard

with a fishing net...

- Hell, yeah.
- Way to freaking go, brother.

Narrator: But they were
woefully unprepared

for what approached
the snare next.

Steven: Me and
Ryan are in our blind,

and slowly but surely,

this behemoth of a
monster of a warthog

comes to the waterhole.

Ryan: I heard
something up there.

Ryan: That net that
I sort of constructed

out of my fishing line

was a great tool
for smaller game,

but it was no match
for apex predators

or bigger game like hog-zilla.

Ryan: Go, go, go, go,
go! [ Warthog squealing ]

Steven: [Bleep]

[ Exhales sharply ]

Now, in my memory,
hog-zilla was 500 pounds,

and when that thing came up,

the net got wrapped
around my finger,

and if it was wrapped around
two or three more times,

I could have lost my finger.

Ryan: Dude, he
was so [bleep] strong.

Dude, he ran through
that like it was nothing.

It was like when you're
walking through the woods

and a spider web
touches your face

and you just kind
of brush it away.

That's literally, like,
what his demeanor was.

We should have
just thrown spears.

Narrator: In the Amazon,

thousands of wild pigs
roam the jungle floor,

but for primitive hunters,

the thick canopy
makes seeing one,

let alone hunting
one, almost impossible.

[ Animal snorting in distance ]

Matt: Russell and I,

we end up hearing
some pigs in the distance,

so, well, we make our move.

Narrator: Known as
peccary, or skunk pigs

for their strong odor,

these jungle swine are smaller
than their African cousins,

but have proven dangerous in
large groups when threatened.

Matt: Shh. Hey.

Matt: I had to
adapt myself a bit

and find what I
need to by hearing it

rather than seeing it.

Russell: Yeah. Yeah, that's
when we have to be most patient.

Here, we had some of
the largest food source

we could ever obtain.

Matt: Son of a bitch.

But it just didn't
quite come through

on that particular hunt.

The next day, hunger's
getting the best of me,

and I told Russell,
"hey, I'm gonna be gone

until I get something."

These pigs are not
just your average pigs.

They have
incredibly sharp tusks,

don't come out
like a normal pig.

They come straight up and down.

They will skewer a tooth

right through any
part of your body.

I followed up the blood
trail, and that is when I saw

one of the most beautiful
sights in the world,

and that is a very
smelly jungle peccary

laying in front of me.

[ Exhales sharply ]

I don't know if I've
ever killed anything

that meant this much.

The pig in the Amazon
literally brought me to tears,

and it's just a very
powerful moment.

Holy [bleep]

[ Laughs ]

Russell: Man, you could
just feel the energy in the air

when he come walking up
carrying a pig on his back.

Then your brain starts working

as far as, "we got to
get this thing cleaned."

I'd never cleaned
a big-game animal

in that type of
environment before,

so I learned a lot from Matt.

How does that
look to you, brother?

Oh, yeah. That'll work.

I don't know if it
was the hunger

or if that boar
was just amazing,

but I could feel the
energy coming back to me

with every bite.

That is the best
thing I've ever eaten.

Steven: Africa is its own breed.

African animals, they are
incredibly skittish creatures,

mainly because if
you're prey out there,

you're being hunted.

So if an impala or a nyala
or a warthog hear anything,

they're gone.

It's like cheeseburgers
with legs.

There's a snare right there.

There's two if he
goes straight that way,

and there's two if he
goes the other way.

Jake: Ryan has set some snares
on the side of our water source

where we had been seeing

some nyala, some
impala, some kudu

making their way down
quite regularly to drink.

Alyssa: And there's two
if he goes the other way.

Jake: He's huge.

There's a male and
a female right there.

Jake: And this one day,

we saw a herd start making
its way down the bank

and getting closer
and closer to the snare.

They're right there.

[ Gasps ] We got a snare. Snare!

I hear the group start
yelling, "snare! Snare!"

Damn.

I didn't even think twice.

I just dove into the water
and started swimming

'cause the other option was

to run around the
entire bank of the lake.

I don't have that kind of
time. I'm a hungry bitch.

It was just the
adrenaline pumping,

just moment of
"we need this food."

- Oh, [bleep]
- He's off.

[Bleep]

And unfortunately for
us, the snare broke loose,

and I had to watch
dinner run away.

Jake: It's gone.

Narrator: In survival,
the secret to success

often entails innovation,
and several days later,

Jake and his team took
a different approach.

Jake: Desperate times
call for desperate measures,

and we decided a new
hunting technique for our group.

We had made some
incredibly strong snares.

It was one of those moments

where, "a," it's fun to be
out there with your crew

'cause you're all
working together,

and that's always great,

and then to see these massive
animals come down and like,

"this could actually happen."

We all got up and
basically funneled

this very large male nyala
right into this little chute.

It was all going to
plan just perfectly.

- Whoa!
- Go!

Jake: Go!

Alyssa: Yeah, he's at the beach.

- Ah! Ah!
- Hey!

Jake: Hup!

[ Groans ]

Jake: For whatever reason,

he just was insanely
strong, I guess.

Phaedra: How close
was he to a snare?

He broke it. Holy [bleep]

You see that? Jake: Holy [bleep]

And this is strong corded.

Just tore through
1,100-pound test cord.

Holy [bleep]

Jake: It was one
of those moments

where everything went
exactly according to plan,

and yet again, it failed.

I was like a few
feet away from it,

and it wanted to charge.

Alyssa: All I can remember is
being so close and so excited

that I could feel my pulse.

I could feel my heartbeat.

And I think they said they
could hear it on the audio,

that they could hear
how nervous I was.

I really want to kill
one of those bastards.

- Narrator: Coming up...
- Oh, my god! - He get you?

Alright, get back,
get back, get back.

Get back, get back.

Holy [bleep] [bleep]

Oh, my god. It hurts so bad.

Narrator: From 7-ton
African elephants

to 4-ton hippos known to
trample anything in their path...

Woman: Hey!

Holy crap.

Narrator: The giant beasts
of "Naked and Afraid XL"

are a constant concern
for the survivalists.

Oh, my god.

We're supposed to run if
that one charges us, right?

But sometimes, it's
the smaller beasts

that pack the biggest punch.

In the Philippines, the
survivalists encountered

one of the largest and most
venomous insects in the world...

The Palawan centipede.

Rylie: The centipedes had
it out for us from the jump.

They just were straight
coming out of the rocks.

They didn't try to avoid us.

If anything, they,
like, came at us.

Narrator: Growing
up to 12 inches long,

the Palawan centipede

is an aggressive predator
and nocturnal hunter.

It uses its two
syringe-like pinchers

to inject venom into its prey.

Manu: Christina,
what's on your back?

Aah! Aah!

[Bleep] Get it!
Get it, get it, get it.

- I got it.
- Ooh, don't let him go, either!

Rylie: I got it. It's pinned.

That's the one that
bit me last night.

Die, you mother...

These things are
aggressive, they bite.

I got bit.

Manu got bit.

The bite hurts for
a very long time.

- That's what bit me.
- It's like a worm.

Rylie: Oh, my god.
It's still trying to bite.

- That's it.
- You are nightmare fuel.

They were just awful.

I hate this place.

Laura: Jeff and I
had the best cave

in our first 21
days in the jungle,

but everything in
the jungle has a price.

Laura: Holy [bleep]

[Bleep]

Oh, my god. It's another one.

Holy [bleep] it's a 10-inch one.

I'm not kidding.
I'm not kidding.

I'm not kidding. [Bleep] Get up.

Wait, wait, wait. Let me get up.

Honestly, it's so bad.

I don't know what to do.
Jeff: Was it yellow and red?

I couldn't tell.

Laura just got bit in
the head by a centipede.

Laura's in a lot of pain.

She's feeling dizzy.

Oh, my god. That hurts so bad.

Laura: When I got
bit in the head twice

by a gigantic centipede,

I was pretty sure,
at that moment,

that my life was over.

Jeff: This centipede
is about 7 inches long.

Fortunately, this is not the
deadly version of centipede,

which means Laura's
gonna be okay,

but she's gonna feel very
ill the remainder of the night.

Jeff: It's gonna be okay.

Narrator: In the pitch-black
darkness of the Philippines,

Russell, Charlie, and Duck
had an encounter with a beast

that seemed to be
moving closer and closer.

Charlie: Duck, Russell, and I
are in camp on Barrett beach.

It was the middle of the night,

and Russell wakes us
up because he sees eyes.

They're staring at him.

You don't see... oh, yeah.

All the [bleep] way out there.

- Yeah.
- What the [bleep] is it?

Russell: Dude,
grab your bow, man.

That'll be something
to shoot at.

It's coming down
this way, too, man.

What the [bleep] is that?

It's walking this way.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

Grab your bow.

It's heading to our
left. It's behind the tree.

If this thing jumps on us, I
want to be able to [bleep]

If it jumps on us, well,
two of us are gonna eat.

He's freaking out.
Duck picked up his bow.

I picked up my barong,
and we're all worried,

and we have a
defensive position set up.

Russell: It was watching us
the whole [bleep] time, dude.

It turns out, they
were lightning bugs.

[ Laughs ]

That's right. Your
mind plays tricks, man,

especially when you
don't eat for seven days.

Well, that was exciting.

- Lightning bugs.
- Lightning bugs.

Narrator: To survive for 40 days

in the harshest
environments on the planet,

you need the skill
to turn deadly threats

into much-needed protein.

Okay.

This is what we call
dinner in the Amazon.

- His teeth are... ow!
- Oh!

I told you he had teeth.

Narrator: But as Jeff and
E.J. Discovered in season 1,

some sources of
protein keep fighting

well after the hunt is over.

E.J.: Here, Mr. Eel.

Jeff: In Columbia, when
we first saw that eel

swimming up the river,
it was literally like seeing

a 6-foot-long, medium rare steak

swimming through the water.

And E.J. And I, ' we went crazy.

Come on in here,
just a little closer, man.

Ej.

We were gonna kill
this thing at all costs.

We weren't even thinking
about our own lives at that point.

Narrator: A giant electric
eel can grow up to 8 feet long

and pack a deadly
600-volt charge.

Human fatalities
are not uncommon

and often involve victims

drowning in shallow
water while stunned

or dying from cardiac arrest.

Here he comes.
Right behind the head.

Got him. Nice.

Jeff: Whoo!

[ Grunts ]

- You good?
- Yeah.

- I felt the... I felt the elec... aah!
- He get you?

Alright, get back,
get back, get back.

Get back, get back.

Get back. He got me.

Jeff: I've grown up on a farm.

I've been shocked
by electric fences.

I have never been
hit by an electric fence

that hurt as bad
as that eel did.

Let's machete that bastard.

Aah! Aah!

Yeah, you're alright. Ohh.

1,500 volts through my body!

When we were hitting that
thing with out metal blades...

Aah!

And that electricity
was going into the arm,

up into the shoulder,
straight into our chest,

I could literally feel the
electricity in my heart.

Ooh.

Shane: I'll take the knife.

I'm telling you,
Shane, when it hits you,

it's like a horse
kick to the chest.

Aah! Son of a bitch!

- We broke his spine!
- He's done.

Yeah, I cut him in half.

He's got him. E.J.'S got him.

You need me, I'm here.

Oh, dude, look at that! Yeah!

- Yeah!
- Yeah!

Jeff: It hurt like a bitch,

but food will make ordinary
men do extraordinary things.

- Yes!
- Black rock boys!

- Yes!
- Yeah!

[ Both screaming ]

Narrator: Coming up...
Gabrielle: Oh, my god.

- Aah!
- Oh! [Bleep]

Pin him. Pin him.

- [ Gasps ]
- Aah!

Rylie: [ Screams ]

Kaila: If a lion jumps
into your boma,

you're [bleep] out of luck.

[ Shouting ]

[ Squeals ]

Giovanna: I would
grab something large

and start swinging probably.

I'm not really sure
what I would do.

[ Animal growls in distance ]

Oh, shut up!

I'd be s.O.L.

I'm the first one
they're going for.

Just hope that
you can run faster

than the rest of the girls.

I'm not covering your ass.

I'm running.

Woman: Oh, [bleep]

Your best bet, honestly,
make your amends with god...

- Aah!
- Go! Go!

And hope that that
lion takes you out quick

because that's
honestly the best thing

that's gonna happen to
you in a situation like that.

- Good one.
- I want my mommy!

I want my mom!

Narrator: The smaller the
animal, the harder it is to spot,

and deep in the
Philippine jungle,

the element of camouflage

made one of the
world's deadliest snakes

a nearly invisible threat.

Gabrielle: Rylie and I are
walking through the jungle.

We're kind of on a hunt,
seeing what we could find...

Keep an eye out.

And I see a viper
laying on a vine.

Gabrielle: Oh, my god.

Holy [bleep]

And it blended in so
perfectly with the environment.

I was amazed that I
even spotted this thing.

Aah! Oh, [bleep]!

Narrator: The venom
of the Palawan pit viper

attacks and destroys
platelets in the bloodstream

that are responsible
for clotting,

causing many victims to
bleed to death internally.

You're going to
want to pin its head

very hard to the ground
if it comes your way.

This is his home territory.

He's gonna move a
lot faster than we will.

Rylie: Alright.

Gabrielle: I was going
to use caution, you know,

not make any sudden
moves or do anything

that I thought was
going to jeopardize the kill

at the same time.

Gabrielle: Let him get my stick.

Careful, though,
'cause his headed...

Pointed at you now. Mm-hmm.

- Holy [bleep]
- Got to pin him.

Pin him. Pin him.

- I got it.
- Pin him.

Rylie: Hold on.

You got to get close
to his head, okay?

[ Gasps ]

Aah! Pin him, pin him.

Alright, it's pinned real tight.

You got him?

It's all the way down.

You got all the
time in the world.

Take your time.

Cutting a snake's head off

is a little bit more
difficult than you'd expect,

especially on
damp rainforest soil.

He's been decapitated.

Yeah. Whoo! [ Laughs ]

Thanks, buddy. Feeding
some hungry girls.

I was able to cut its head off,

and, you know, we got the kill.

It felt like we were providing,

and just the morale you get

out of bringing
back protein is huge.

The boys are gonna be excited.

Narrator: In five seasons,

the men and women
of "Naked and Afraid XL"

have set their hunting sights
on all manner of animals.

[ Groans ]

No such luck today.

The successes are
few and hard-earned,

but extremely meaningful

to those skilled and fortunate
enough to experience it.

Matt: Day 34 was an epic day.

I walked miles that day,

and eventually, I was able
to finally make the move

and spot and stalk
a beautiful impala.

Matt: Got him!

There he is.

Yeah, baby.

Every animal that
I harvest out there

has been a very
emotional moment.

Oh, my entire life, I've
trained for this moment.

Matt: Because of that animal

giving its life to
aid in our survival,

I always want to
give that animal

the true respect it deserves.

Very emotional moment.

Matt: Part of
the warrior spirit.

Thank you, girl. Thank you.

Thank you, to this
animal, for giving its life.

It's beautiful.

That'll be enough to
take us to extraction

and to feed our bellies.

That's absolutely
game right there.

Woman: Whoo! Yeah!

Matt: We are still out
of breath from this hike...

Kaila: Hey, guys!

And we look over,
and there's Lindsey

carrying kaila's warthog
on her shoulders.

- [ Screams ]
- [Bleep]

Matt: We all were
just in disbelief.

Holy [bleep]

Kaila: It was like this
little tiny watering hole

that Lindsey and I would go to,

and we would see these
warthogs almost every day.

And finally, I had one
come close enough to me,

and I just ended
up getting a shot off.

[ Warthog squeals ]

- Did you hit it?
- I got it.

- Did you get it?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- [ Screams ]
- [ Laughs ]

Kaila: Lindsey and
I both jumped up,

we're screaming and
freaking out and hugging.

Kaila: Oh, my gosh.

We finally got to
provide for our team.

That was what we
had been putting

all this time and energy into.

I'm so excited. I love you.

- Nice!
- No way!

Oh, my gosh!

- Warthog?
- Oh, yeah!

You guys are [bleep] awesome!

Man: Wow!

Kaila: We finally
were successful,

and I finally shot a warthog.

It was just such a
great day to celebrate.

Lindsey: Oh, an impala!

What? Holy [bleep]
that's awesome.

- Wow.
- [Laughs] Nice work!

Matt: We all were
just in disbelief

that we just came
back with a feast

and turned it into
a jumbo feast.

Oh, yeah. Look at these.

Today, we have become meat rich.

On day 34, we now have
more meat than we can eat.

- That piece right there.
- This one?

- Oh, that's...
- It's [bleep] amazing.

Matt: It was just an
absolutely incredible moment

that was shared in the success
of perseverance, you know?

[ Laughs ]

Oh, my god.

- Whoo! Yeah!
- Great job, everyone.

Narrator: For the survivalists,

the presence of the world's
most dangerous animals

has always been a hallmark

of the "Naked and
Afraid XL" challenge...

Man: Whoa!

What a welcoming sight.

Generating feelings
of sheer awe...

Woman: Oh, my god.
There's a bunch of them.

Look.

- Holy...
- That's awesome.

Narrator: And paralyzing fear.

Lions. I can hear lions.

Narrator: All for
the opportunity

to test their skill
and determination

in a natural world few
will every experience.

Lacey: I want to know,

am I strong enough
to go out and survive?

Jeff: And it's scary
to some people,

but for me, that's a challenge.

Was it worth it? Oh, yeah.

This is what I
live for right now!
