06x02 - Frozen in Fear

[bunniefuu]

It's pouring on us,
and it's like 40 degrees.

Ugh.

My body temperature's
dropping so fast right now.

Yeah, we were, like,
kind of doing okay

Until it started pouring on us.

We're shivering uncontrollably.

We could actually
get hypothermia.

Stop raining!

Narrator: one man...

Narrator: ...one woman,
exposed and alone

It's scary

...at nature's mercy
for 21 days...

Aah!

There's a bear
outside my shelter.

Narrator: ...with no food...

Please don't go.

...no water...
I'm hurting real bad.

Narrator: ...no clothes.

There's an alligator
down here.

Do they have the skill...
Fire!

...and the will to survive...

Woman: I don't think
we're gonna make it.

Captions paid for by
discovery communications

Narrator: deep in the vast,
windswept wilderness

Of ontario, canada,

Lies the area of bark lake,

A rugged patchwork
of thick, hardwood forest

And frigid lakes and marshlands.

Even in summer, stiff winds

And frequent thunderstorms

Can lead to daytime temperatures
in the 50s

And near-freezing temperatures
at night.

It's also prime feeding season

For such dangerous
cold-weather mammals

As black bears, wolves,

And moose.

Moose can grow
to over 700 pounds

And will charge
and trample humans

If they feel threatened.

Cassie: I have goose bumps
all over my body.

I've been out here 20 minutes,
and it's quite chilly.

I'm cassie turner
from honolulu, hawaii,

And I'm a marine biologist.

I'm tired of everyone thinking

I'm just some dumb blond girl

Whose primary goal in life
is to be pretty.

People underestimate me
all the time.

I've been practicing
wilderness survival

Since I was a little kid.

My grandpa would take us hunting
and trapping.

And I've got my survival plan
pretty well mapped out,

All the different ways
I'm gonna try and k*ll things.

I've never found the "no" factor

Of things that you really
aren't capable of doing.

In order
to keep finding my limits,

You know, I'm just pushing them
even further with this.

Narrator: despite her youth,
cassie has amassed

Years of hunting
and outdoor experience,

But exclusively
in moderate climates,

Which could work
against her in canada.

She begins with a primitive
survival rating,

Or psr, of 6.7.

I am most nervous right
now about the cloud cover --

Kind of adverse
to getting wet and cold.

My name's greg wells.

I'm 35 years old,

And I'm just finishing
up a 15-year career

In the military.

I work with u.s. Army
special forces.

We train multinational forces

And do combat operations
worldwide.

So I'm very confident
in my skills.

If you can't start a fire

And you're relying
on that fire starter,

That's not primitive.

That's
"naked and you're an idiot."

I'm super-excited
about this challenge

Being in canada
'cause I do have experience

Being in this type
of environment.

Getting through this challenge
is definitely gonna, you know,

Prove once again that, you know,
I can put my mind to it

And I can succeed
at whatever I want to do.

Narrator: with his military
and cold-weather experience,

Greg has the training to survive
hypothermic conditions.

But working outside
of a military unit

And without the proper equipment
could present obstacles

To his success.

He deploys with a psr of 7.2.

All right, this is it.

Let's get it on
by getting it off.

Nice and brisk.
Whew!

Cassie: I don't mind being naked
so much.

I feel a little bit bad
about embarrassing my family.

It's gonna be an interesting
situation for them,

I think, more than me.

Sorry, nana.

I hope my partner
is not a blonde

'Cause I haven't met one yet
that has, like, one, single,

Coherent thought
other than themselves,

Maybe a pair of shoes.

They're just, in general,

For lack of a better word,
morons.

It's really cold.

Oh, boy.

Turn the corner
and I see my partner

And she's a blond girl.

-Hello.
-Hi.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.
I'm greg.

-Cassie. Nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you.

So, you ready to do this?

It's a chilly day, yeah.

A little cold,
but that's all right, you know?

It's a nice way to start it,
nice and brisk.

Cassie:
yeah, when I see my partner

For the first time,

I'm thinking,
"he looks warm."

So I'm excited for that.

You ready to get started
and see what we got?

Narrator: in addition
to a cooking pot,

Cassie and greg

Have also brought
one personal survival item.

-I brought my machete.
-Good stuff.

I made this sheath for it

So I'll have something
to carry it in.

Nice.
That's perfect.

And I brought with me
paracord.

Paracord is not a fire starter,

And I was hoping we would have
a fire starter in canada.

We will have fire.

Greg: I'm very confident
in primitive fire making,

Like a bow drill
and everything else.

Cassie: I don't have really
strong primitive-fire skills,

So I really hope that he's got
the bow-drill skills

That he says he does.

I have a map.

Nice. Perfect.

We've got bears --
first thing, bears.

-Yes.
-We are here.

There are bears there.

I'm pretty concerned
about moose.

I don't want to
get trampled.

Yeah,
they're kind of big,

And, you know,
they'll step on you

In the middle of the night.

Up here,
there looks like a stream

And a beaver dam.

That'll work great
for the fires and the shelters,

-So we should be --
-this seems like a good spot

To sh**t for, yeah.

-Yeah, ready to get started?
-Let's do this.

All right.

Narrator: to avoid cold winds
coming off the large lake,

Cassie and greg have decided
to move several miles

Into the forest.

They'll head toward a small
stream and beaver pond

That they hope will be
a good source

Of both water and food.

How your feet feeling?

Oh, my feet are great.
Good, good, good.

Well, I'm just thankful
it's really actually quite soft

With all these little
fern things.

I know. It's nice.
It's like carpet.

-Yeah.
-All the luxuries of home.

Minus, like, warmth.

Is this bear *bleep*?

That -- that it is.

In an environment like this,
you have a lot of bears.

You have a lot of wolves.
And moose *bleep*

Ah.

Oh, there's a lot
of moose poop.

Those are predatory animals,

And you may actually be
what's for dinner.

This is
nerve-racking, though,

Coming up on someplace
where you think there's a bear.

Yeah.

It's a little bit more
than what you do every day.

That's for sure.

Thanks.

You got mosquitoes
all over you.

I know. Yeah.
I hate them so much right now.

Whoa. Bear.

Okay.
Which way do you want to go?

Okay, we'll -- we'll --
we'll go around somewhere else.

I don't want to be here.

It was loud.
It was moving.

Greg: god dang.

Oh, here's our beaver dam.

Lake, water --
that's beautiful.

It's beaver fever water.

Narrator: the large amount
of fungus and animals feces

In the stagnant waters
of the beaver pond

Means it most likely
contains parasites

And must be purified
before drinking.

Till we get a fire,
we can't boil down the giardia

That's in the water

That the beavers
are contaminating.

Maybe we can get down
to the stream

And then follow it.
How about that?

Yeah. Sounds good.
Yeah. We'll cut across

And follow the stream down.

This is a little soggy.

This is soggy.

Oh, whoa.
Watch yourself.

Whew.
Sunk in deep there.

Cassie: starting off cold
and wet is an interesting way

To start a 21-day
wilderness challenge.

It's not good for hypothermia,

So we need a really good fire
and shelter

Because it's going to be
a cold, cold night.

Wow.

This is gonna definitely
get us out of the bugs.

This is gonna be
a bit pokey,

And it may be an area
frequented by bears.

-Mm...
-You think?

I don't know.
Given this rock and everything,

I don't think
they're gonna come out here.

We've found a good spot
out on a granite rock face.

It's a little bit open,

So we get
a little more daylight.

It's dry.

You know, we're not gonna
be sleeping in the marsh.

I'm gonna start with the fire.

I got faith in you, greg.
You got this.

I do the partner method
of using a bow drill.

So, one holds, one saws.

It makes things a lot easier.

It's a lot more stable.

Oh, sorry.

Ah.

Smoking,
but not quite enough.

Let's keep going.

It's looking
a little light.

*Bleep*
how did that not kick?

That was perfect.
That should have worked.

That -- that was -- I mean,
you can't get any better

Than that ember right there.

-Yeah.
-Bam. Burn it.

Cassie: I am really frustrated
right now.

We have no fire, no shelter,

And it's gonna be dark soon.

Greg: I'm not worried about
night one right now.

It'll get a little cool,
a little brisk,

But I think we're gonna be fine.

Cassie: I hope that you can see
that my pee is steaming

On the rocks 'cause
it's *bleep* freezing here.

This is the frosty nest.

It was our shelter,
which had a roof,

And we have taken
the entire roof

And made it into blankets.

Narrator:
on the verge of hypothermia,

Cassie and greg deliberately
avoid going to sleep.

Anything to raise
our body temperatures

Because it's so cold.

We're really afraid

That we might come down
with hypothermia.

Narrator:
since it lowers metabolic rates

And can suppress the body's
natural warning signals,

Sleep can actually
exacerbate hypothermia.

Cassie:
I wish we had a freaking fire.

I definitely won't make it
through 21 days like this.

Without fire,
we're not going to make it.

Greg: this sucks.

It went from cold to fog.

We were really,
really excited for some sun rays

To sh**t on us,
and instead we got fog.

Greg: last night was miserable.

It was freezing cold.

The shelter didn't work out
quite like we wanted it to,

So we tried to rearrange
just to stay warm,

And it just got bitterly cold
last night.

It's literally
like a wet blanket out here now.

We need fire so bad.

If we had fire, we'd be okay.

Greg: main goals for day 2 is,
take the shelter,

Get a nice, solid frame for us,

Then get the fire going.

That's -- that's got to be done.

Right now, you know, I'm not
concerned about calories.

We have a lot of berries
and easy calories to replenish.

I'm concerned about fire.

I don't see how we could
possibly survive without it.

Cassie: keep it going.

Uh-oh.

Damn.

Okay.

This is getting
very frustrating

'Cause I can't figure out
what I'm doing wrong.

It's disappointing for her,

And it's kind
of a morale breaker for me

Because, you know, I feel like
I've let our team down

With the skill that I brought in
that I was confident with

That now I'm failing to do.

Ah!

I blew it out
when I pulled the damn --

I even saw it in there.
*Bleep*

Cassie: I know that greg
is trying really hard,

But in the same sense,

I am completely relying on him
to make this fire,

And I am also frustrated
that it's not happening.

We're dehydrated.

We haven't had a substantial
source of water.

You know, we come down
to the tough decision

That, you know,
we got to drink.

Cassie: I'm so scared
of this water.

Don't be.

We're gonna
purify it right here,

And you're gonna be good.

I remembered that the moss
around here has iodine, which --

Anyone who's been
in the wood

Knows that you use iodine
for purification of water.

Greg: probably want to drink
on the opposite side

Of the dirt.

Oh, my god.

Mosquitoes.

What you think?

It's water.

It'll keep us going.

Yeah, it kind
of tastes like a*s.

It's a little gritty, yeah,
but it's water.

Whatever it takes,
whatever it takes.

Greg: we reevaluate the rocks

And know that it's just simply
too cold,

Given the night temperatures
and everything,

So we're looking to move.

I was looking back here.

Wow.
There's moose poop right here.

Moose is a consideration,

But the rain worries me more
than the moose because

That one's a slim-to-none.

The rain --
we get rained on,

We're gonna be
just straight miserable.

I'm concerned about the moose.
I don't want to get trampled.

-That way gets a lot wetter...
-Mm-hmm.

Greg: ...on the ground
like we've been having.

And that way sinks back
into the marshlands

Back over
at the beaver dam.

My least favorite thing
about cassie

Really isn't her own fault --

Just that she's young.

So, I have more
life experience

Actually doing
a lot of these things.

I'm trying to help us.

Cassie: wow. There's more moose
poop right here.

Like, this is,
like, probably his bed.

We're on a moose track.
It's a moose freakin' highway.

But I'm trying not
to fight

Because I can't make it out here
alone without my partner,

So I'm gonna let him
have his way.

-I don't believe this.
-Huh?

Greg: a chipmunk just ran
in our hut and ran back out.

We just had a visitor.

We're probably gonna eat him,
like, tomorrow.

I want to name him
"monster."

He's gonna go over
and eat all of our blackberries,

Before we get over there again,
fat little b*stard.

It's pouring on us,
and it's like 40 degrees.

And it's just freezing.

It's really cold.
We're getting soaked.

We could actually
get hypothermia 'cause --

Greg: yeah.

Cassie: yeah, we were, like,
kind of doing okay

Until it started pouring
on us.

I don't think
we're gonna make it.

That's three of the most
flammable *bleep* I know --

Birch bark, beard, pine needles.

Narrator:
since 15 minutes of shivering

Burns as much fat
as an hour of exercise,

Cassie and greg are losing
critical amounts

Of fat and calories each night.

Their intake of berries
cannot possibly sustain them

Unless they can find a way
to stay warm.

Okay, we're through.

Oh, stay together.
Stay together. Stay together.

No. *Bleep*

That was burning.
What happened?

Right now I am going to bust
open a blister on a fir tree,

And you come out with nothing
but pure pine sap,

Which is very flammable.

So, hopefully the pine oil
will strike it up quickly.

We go back and we hit it
four, five, six more times.

Nothing happens.

*Bleep*
that thing was burning!

Cassie:

Stop raining!

The rain's let up
a little bit.

Hmm?

Was that a moose?

Is he gone?

Holy *bleep*

A moose just walked
right by us.

Cassie: we're changing shelters
right now because we decided

That it would be best to
get out of the moose path.

Last night's experience
was probably one of the worst

I've ever had in my life.

It was just totally
bad circumstances all the way

Around with the moose
and the rain.

And the structural integrity
on our other campsite

Started to kind of weaken
a little bit,

So that's why we're gonna go

With a little bit
larger-scale structure,

But something
a little more durable,

A little more secure
'cause we got a few more trees

To kind of close us in.

None of those animals
are gonna come near us again.

Hey, cass.
-Yeah?

I see him.
Let's go get him.

Monster is our local chipmunk

Who eats
all of our blackberries.

And then those he doesn't eat,

He just pulls off there
and leaves them sitting out

On the rocks.

-Do you have eyes on him?
-Yeah.

He's in these rocks
straight in front of me,

Like five feet.

Cassie: he just went down
behind the rock.

Did you get him?

*Bleep*
right by your feet!

-Where is he?
-Damn.

Jumped off
the ledge again.

We're gonna get
that little b*stard.

Yes, we are.

Greg: day 5. We're kind of just,
you know, feeling like crap.

Both of us are just sluggish
from the cold.

Cassie: in this environment,

I don't think any shelter

Is going to be able
to keep out the cold.

It's just absolutely frigid.

I think that every single night
without fire

Is a struggle
against hypothermia.

Um, I think
since we're having a hard time

Keeping the coal going,
we should use the cedar boards.

We finally find a cedar board
to use for the bottom,

Which we've been looking
for the whole time we were here.

So, I feel really good
about fire today.

I feel like we can get it.

Okay.

Cassie: you got this.

Looks good.

All right.

Oh, yeah, it's sparking.
I see that.

Looking good.

Yes.

What the *bleep*

Why did it go back out?

Why in the hell
did that not start a fire?

That should have started
a *bleep* oil blaze.

-I have no idea.

I mean, so much
of this in here is burned.

I'm lightheaded as hell.

I'm about to choke to death
on the smoke.

I don't know what to tell you,
cassie.

I can't explain it.

I've never had this kind
of problem.

Man.

Greg: I'm doing my best here
to get, you know, a shelter,

And now a fire
that's, you know, part of it.

It sucks, you know?
This sucks.

Last night was really scary.

I underestimated
this environment.

I was just in complete doubt
that I was gonna make it at all.

Cassie really picked me up.

She got me through it.

You literally saved my life
last night

'Cause I was going down fast,

And, you know, coming over
and giving me some body heat

That I just couldn't
produce anymore --

I really appreciate that.
Thank you.

It really hits home
about how real

Of a survival situation
we're in

And how we need to lean
on each other for support.

I can carry these
if you can get those.

Yes, I can.

All right.

Go team.

Teamwork is, like,
legendary right now.

Well, it's definitely
keeping us in the game.

Yeah.

At least I didn't get
a *bleep* damn girly girl

'Cause then I would have been
very upset.

What were your thoughts
coming into this on, like,

Who your partner
was gonna be?

One of my things
was I was hoping

I wouldn't get
a blond girl

'Cause I haven't met too many
that have been very bright.

No.
You know what?

People think
that about me all the time,

Which is why I do stuff
like this.

Well, I think
you're a friggin' rock star

And you're doing awesome
out here.

I'm glad
that I'm out here

With somebody
who has those feelings.

I like to show people
that, you know, I'm a hard-a*s.

I'm out here doing anything
that any guy could do

And a lot of things
that half the guys wouldn't do.

Cassie is the exception
to the blonde rule.

She's awesome.

Cassie's nothing like any blonde
I've ever met before.

The house looks b*mb,
and it's hot in there already.

Awesome.
Let's go try fire again.

Let's start a fire.

Yes.
That's what I meant.

Let's go start a fire

So we can eat some frogs,
damn it.

I want to eat that chipmunk
that keeps stealing our berries.

I want
a chipmunk sweater.

That would be warm --
make a blanket out of him.

-You got this. You do.

I like the confidence.

I like the positive,
positive vibes.

If you believe it,
you can achieve it.

-Big hit.
-Okay.

I think
we need to go faster.

All right.

You've got this.
You've got this.

Looking good.

Getting a lot of smoke.

Oh, sweet jesus.

Get that going
quick, quick, quick.

I'm trying.

We'll get a couple
of these good pieces going here.

Whoo!

Damn, that's hot!
I like it!

I have made fire!

It was beautiful, you know,

Probably -- probably
the best thing I've seen

Since I absolutely was dying,
literally, to have it.

Look at our fire!

People don't understand
what six days

Of no clothing, no bedding,
and 40-degree nights feels like.

To finally have warmth
again is --

Is amazing because we're really
starting to need it

Since we're losing all our
body fat from not eating.

Ooh, there's a frog.

Got one.

Two.

Got him.

Holy cow.

Ready for dinner?
-Yes.

We've got lake vegetables,
frog legs,

And blackberries.

Oh, come here,
you delicious b*stard.

Oh, wow.

It's so good.

That was really good.

Good work, cassie.

Thank you.
Good work on that fire.

Greg: having a great partnership
with cassie

Is the critical piece
of what we have right now.

If we continue to grow,

Then we're gonna make it
through the hunger,

The, you know,
sleep deprivation, the cold,

The rain, everything else.

We're gonna make it
right through that.

Canada's about to see
what's up now.

Now we got fire,
this is easy as hell.

There's a huge storm
blowing in today,

So instead of doing
what we had planned,

Which was setting up some traps,

We are now stocking up firewood
like crazy.

That's wind,
but that means big rain,

Like monsoon big rain.

Cassie:
oh, it's dying down quick.

Cassie:
canada is not messing around.

Thank you, canada,

For showing us how
incredibly challenging you are.

We believe you.

Narrator:
after finally securing fire,

Greg and cassie have been
hit hard by a new storm

And intense cold front.

Over the next three days,
temperatures plummet.

Greg: this weather just sucks.

I've never been anywhere
where every single day

It just beats you down.

And it's just --
I'm so pissed about it.

We are all out of wood,
and we're --

We're out of firewood
and birch bark.

We are closing in on the doors
of -- of going home

If this don't --
if this don't --

We're burning our bedding
at this point.

We're all in.

This isn't staying lit.

All right, this is everything
I've got on birch bark.

I'm throwing my bedding
on it now.

You want to keep an eye on it,
and I'll go out

And get a batch?
-Yeah. I got you.

Oh, my god.
Ugh.

Greg: come on, baby.
Come on, baby. Come on, baby.

Let's go.
What you got?

This is everything I could get
that was kind of dry.

How's it looking?

I think it's lighting.
-I think it is, too.

Greg: I think
we might have this.

Cassie: oh, my god.

It looks like our log
is actually starting to burn,

The one log we have left.

We're not going home yet.

I don't know.
High five, team canadia.

Son of a b*tch.
It's sunlight.

That is sunlight.

Greg: we have survived
the torrential downpours,

Although it has left us
a little bit tired

And weakened

And we have depleted a good bit
of our wood stockpile.

What else you got?

It's cold,
and we're hungry,

But we still have fire
after the storm,

Which is awesome.

Absolutely.

We rocked that one.

So, canadian storms,
you got nothing on us.

Cassie: so far,
I haven't had a lot of chances

To do much hunting.

We're doing pretty poorly
with food.

We haven't really eaten enough,
so the hunger's starting to hit.

This terrain makes it a little
difficult to set these up.

I made the deadfall trap.

They're good for, you know,

Any kind of small animals,

Anything you can bait in.

Hopefully when he goes
to pull that acorn

Off the stick,
it will trigger the trap.

We'll see.

Greg: right now I'm collecting
some acorns for me and cassie.

Acorns from black oak trees

Are considered the most
bitter in the world.

They can cause severe diarrhea

Unless the tannins
are leached out

Through several stages
of rinsing and roasting.

Greg: I'm gonna boil
them down a little bit later,

Kind of use this to supplement
our nourishment right now.

Come on, baby.

Try that one.

Oops.

*Bleep*

Oh, my god.

Ugh.

Okay. Yeah.
Mnh. Gross.

They look so good.

They look just like peanuts,

And you think
they're gonna taste good,

But they totally suck.

If you were to,
like, solidify urine

And try and eat that...

...that's pretty much
what they taste like.

I'm glad
we're eating piss.

Oh *bleep*

Hmm?

Cassie: I just woke up,
and I'm going to check my trap

And see
if there's anything in it.

It looks like the trap deployed.

Fingers crossed.

It's not looking promising.

I don't see any blood.

Ah, nope.

It looks like he cleaned out
our acorn.

I hate him.

Today I think the hunger
is really starting to hit.

I'm noticing how hungry I am.

Ohh.

He went for it.

Man.

Oh, that was a good fish.

I may just grab a few more
lily flowers

And head back
'cause I'm freezing.

Greg: monster loves your trap.

He was standing on top of it,
eating berries.

Cassie: I hate him.

I'm gonna k*ll
that little b*stard.

I want to k*ll monster
for eating all of our berries.

That's just pure vendetta
right there.

Cassie: look. He's on this log.
I see him.

I'm gonna cut out
through the wood line this way

And try and get around him.

Okay.

*Bleep* *bleep*

We didn't get that one,
but the game isn't over.

Get him!

Oh, he's in that hole.

Where the *bleep*
could he have gone?

He ducked
right under that spear.

Yeah, he did.
That was a good shot.

Today we almost
k*lled monster twice,

So it's hopeful.

We're close.
Monster's good as dinner.

I'm feeling really low.

The hunger is starting
to really become an issue.

I'm to the point where, like,
I'm shaking almost constantly.

Greg: damn it.

Seriously,
I'm gonna spear his a*s.

He's dinner.

You little son of a b*tch.

*Bleep* cassie!

Narrator: over 19 days,
the intense cold and heavy rains

Of canada's bark lake
have tested cassie and greg

At every turn.

It's just dumping on us.

With years of training
and a psr of 7.2,

Greg struggled greatly
before finally getting fire.

Damn, that's hot!
I like it!

With a psr of 6.7,
cassie has endured the cold.

Cassie: ah, nope.

But her hunting skills have yet
to yield a large return.

It's cold, and we're hungry.

Narrator:
now on the cusp of starvation,

Greg and cassie
will have their psrs

Reevaluated if they make it
out of the woods.

You little son of a b*tch.

*Bleep* cassie!

Hey, I need the machete!

I got about a 12-inch snake.

See if you can chop through
right there.

Whoo-hoo!

-Yeah!
-We got a snake!

-*Bleep* yeah!
-Nice!

Whoo!

k*lling that snake
was absolutely necessary.

We're starving.
We're hungry.

I'm just -- I'm so excited.

Today
for your dining pleasure,

We're offering
crisp forest snake.

You're the chef.

Ah, thank you very much.

Mm-hmm.

Ah, dude.

Oh, yeah.

This is delicious.

That's so good.

Good work.

I'm pumped.

k*lling the snake,

And me and cassie
have a decent little meal.

And now we're ready
to cruise on out of here

Like it's a camping trip
onto extraction.

Cassie: it's morning 21.

Because I'm a warrior,

I thought
it would be appropriate

To do body paint
for extraction.

I'm ready to get out of here.

Narrator:
to reach their extraction point,

Cassie and greg must trek
into the heart of bear country

Through six miles
of thick undergrowth

To meet a rescue plane
on the shores of bark lake.

-All right, are we ready?
-Yep, we're ready.

Bye, monster.

See you, fuzzy,
you little b*stard.

Ahh.

All right, well, obviously
this is not a good choice.

Cassie: we're in this wooded
environment.

We're getting our feet
destroyed.

There's a lot
of dead trees on the ground

And lots of sticks everywhere.

Ugh.

All right.

Sweet *bleep*

We keep getting in rougher
and rougher *bleep* here.

Greg: I am a little on edge.

Some of the places
we were walking appear

To have never,
ever been touched by anything.

Whew.
It is not gentle on the feet.

No. This sucks on the feet.

Big thorns, big thorns.

Trying to traverse
thick brush --

It's extremely difficult.

Whew.
Look at this.

Here's our big lake.

-Hey, right here!
-Come on!

Come on, catch us!
-Right here!

-Help!
-Hey!

-Whoo!
-Bring her here!

You got to be kidding me.
One pass? Come on.

I think I hear them
coming back around.

Greg: hey! Right here!
He's landing.

-Come on!
-There he goes! Come on!

-Whoo! Come on, plane!
-Right here!

-Yes.
-Whoo!

Cassie, high five.
Team canadia.

Team canadia.

Damn right!

Whoo!

-It's cold! Whew.
-It's okay.

We can make it
to this plane.

Oh, wow.

Reach out, girl.
I got you.

-Whoo-hoo.
-Come on.

-Oh, my gosh. Thank you.
-Good job.

-Hey, hey.
-Hey. Appreciate it, brother.

No problem.

Cassie: oh, my god,
we got on an airplane.

High five.
Yeah.

We did it.

Greg: going through
these circumstances

And this environment
and these situations with cassie

Has really helped me grow
as a person.

Day one to done.
Let's go home.

Goodbye, canada!

He saw me
at face value, you know,

A young, blond girl
coming out here

To survive
in the woods with him.

But once we both saw how much
we were both willing to put in

In order to make it,

I think we came
to respect each other.

Oh, my god, we did it!

Greg:
if you have the patience

To make your point,
listen to theirs, you know,

And come to a common ground,
it's liberating.

Cassie: even when things
weren't working,

We just stayed positive
and kept trying new things.

And, you know,
I think it just shows you

If you choose to survive,
then you will and you can.

Never stop pushing.
Never stop moving forward.

Always challenge yourself.

Whoo!
Goodbye, canada!

We are out of here!

Whoo-hoo!

Narrator: over the course
of 21 days in canada,

Greg lost 30 pounds.

Though he initially struggled
to show his strengths...

Why in the hell
did that not start a fire?

That should have started
a *bleep* oil blaze.

...greg ultimate answered
every challenge he faced.

I have made fire!

Narrator: as a result,
his psr rises from 7.2 to 8.0.

Almost losing her age in weight,
cassie dropped 21 pounds.

While the cold never let up,
neither did her resolve.

-Whoo-hoo! We got a snake!
-Yeah!

Narrator: she displayed
the strength of a seasoned pro.

Big thorns, big thorns.

Her psr increases
from 6.7 to 7.8.

In the extreme cold of canada,

Cassie and greg shivered,
but didn't waver...

High five, team canadia.

...proving they can survive

Naked and afraid.

Greg: no more monster
to eat all of our food.
