Would you take on bees
right now?

The risk with those bees is just
getting the absolute crap

Stung out of you,
versus getting honey.

Woman:
it's about to be nighttime.

Hopefully, they'll be
a little less active.

I just really don't think
this is a good idea.

Ah! Mm!

It's getting real now.

Man: I got a bad feeling

-Aah!
-Whoo-hoo!

Man: holy hell.

We got this.

Yeah!

Get me out!

Man: stung on
the damn john henry.

It's 45 degrees in cary,

And I've spent the last month
breaking in my feet.

I'll be ready to tell
my neighbors what I'm doing,

Because right now
they think I'm crazy.

Woman: jesse, what are you
most excited about?

Being naked.

No, the sun.
I'm excited for the sun.

Are you going to eat
some snakes?

If we're lucky.

Narrator:
central brazil's cerrado --

A landscape
of shifting habitats,

Where contrasting terrains
collide to form

One of the most challenging
places to survive on the planet.

In one region, violent storms
fill steep valleys

With over 60 inches
of rain a year,

Creating a lush hunting ground
for giant anaconda,

Venomous wandering spiders,

And aggressive
brazilian wasps

That can sting multiple times

And paralyze their prey.

Only a few miles away,
these waterlogged ravines

Have eroded into
an arid wasteland,

Forming an equally
formidable territory

Where searing temperatures
over 100 degrees

Beat down on giant
sandstone outcroppings

That provide
the perfect hideouts

For venomous rattlesnakes
and territorial jaguars.

Now, in an epic survival
challenge,

One man and one woman
will have to choose

Between flooded valleys
and sun-scorched savannas

In their attempt to survive

One of the toughest
locations on earth.

This is a really stressful
survival situation.

I'm seeing big,
puffy cumulus clouds,

And I'm just wondering
if it's going to rain on us

This afternoon.

I'm a wilderness educator,
and I'm out here

So I can put
the survival skills

I've been practicing for years
to the test for the first time.

I just hope that I don't become
really frustrated

With the bow drill when it
matters most for making fire

Because I really
don't want to fall apart

Because I know that I know
how to do this skill.

I want to take on this challenge

Because sometimes I can get
frustrated and doubt myself.

I just want the two of us

To make it through
the situation alive.

I think that, if I can
let go of my fears,

That this is going to be
a huge growth experience for me.

♪♪

Wes: I'm excited.
I'm anxious.

Every emotion that
you could possibly have

Is coursing through me
right at this moment.

I'm from cary, north carolina,
and I own an i.t. Company.

I'm a competitor.
I'm 48 years old,

And I want to still be able
to do the same things

That I could do
when I was younger.

I'm doing this because I want
to prove to myself

That I have what it takes
to make the 21 days.

I play soccer against kids
who are in their 20s,

And I want to show them
that getting older

Is not the end of the world.

You can still do everything,
just maybe at a slower pace.

Failure is really
not an option.

I came into this challenge
to make it to 21 days,

And I sure hope my partner
can come with me,

But if she can't, it's not going
to detract from my challenge.

♪♪

Finally here.

♪♪

Whoo!

Brazil, you got nothing.

I can already feel myself
getting sunburned.

I'm really excited.

I've been waiting for this
for a long time.

Wes: I got to admit
I'm a little bit nervous.

Whoo!
It's go time!

Jesse: over in the distance,
it's raining,

But it's baking here.

We'll see you later, buddy.

Wes: I know
it's going to be tough.

I know it's going to be the
hardest thing I've ever done,

But I've never wanted
something so much in my life.

♪♪

Narrator: wes has a strong drive
and athleticism,

But tends to push himself
beyond his limits,

Earning him an initial primitive
survival rating of 6.7.

Jesse has years of training
as a wilderness guide,

But is unsure of her abilities
in a true survival situation.

She begins with a psr of 6.9.

Hey!

Hi.
How are you?

-Good.
-I'm wes.

-Jesse.
-Nice to see you.

Nice to see you too.

This has been
a long time coming.

-Yeah.
-Are you excited?

Yeah, I'm really excited.

-Awkward?
-No.

I'm pretty comfortable
being naked. Are you?

-I am too.
-Okay.

Yeah. This will work out
just fine.

Yeah.you look like a hippie.

Are you a hippie?i guess so.

Jesse: when wes asked me
if I was a hippie,

I didn't mind it too much.

It's a question
that I've gotten a lot.

Wes: we used to call them
earth girls.

I was a hippie.

I had hair down to the middle
of my back.

I still have both ears pierced.

Okay.
So what did you bring?

I've had this bow
for about 5 years,

An extension of my arm.

Wes:
I hope she can use it.

She says she can,
and it appears to be homemade.

I feel confident that we'll get
a fire quickly with this.

Oh, fantastic.
Yeah.

All right.what did you bring?

A little unorthodox,
but I brought climbing rope.

Okay.

I chose the item
because you can make

100 Different things
from this.

Cool. It looks like
we have a machete.

Oh, awesome.i also the map.

So I guess we're at the top
of this waterfall.

Okay.
So the valley here...

Everything in this valley
feels super wet,

And this over here
is maybe a bit drier.

But at the same time,
it looks like we got

Some major predators.

I think, if we can head
into the palms,

We can probably find shelter.

I see a lot of resources
down there as well,

But I tell you,
as I'm looking down here,

I'm noticing the clouds.

It looks like rain is coming
and quite soon.

So we should probably get going.

-You okay with that?
-Yeah. Let's go.

Jesse: the plan right now
is just to hightail it

Down into the valley,
where we saw a lot of resources,

And get our shelter set up
as soon as possible.

Wes: I'll follow you.

We don't have any time to waste.

♪♪

Easy as you go.

I think we should just get
a little tinder

Packed away before it rains,
and I see some over there.

-So do you mind if we...
-No, let's do that.

...run and get some?

So you're pretty good
with that bow drill, huh?

I've never quite done it under
pressure like this situation,

But I have probably made

A couple hundred coals
at this point.

Oh, wow.

Wes: jesse seems great.

She's got a lot of energy.

She's young, though.

I suspect she's a little
impatient,

But when I was her age,

I was impatient too,
and who knows?

I might still be.

Jesse: this kind of grass
makes me a little bit worried

About stepping on a snake.

-Snakes and stuff?
-Yeah.

Narrator:
over 60 types of snakes
can be found in the cerrado,

Including the highly venomous
coral snake.

It looks like such a steep
drop-off.

Just be careful.
I'll be right behind you.

If you see something
you don't feel

Comfortable with,
just stop okay?

Okay.

Just watch out because
this looks like rock,

But it's really
loose sandstone.

Watch out.all right.

You're clearing a good path.

I'm sure you already know this,
but when you,

Like, are descending, don't rely
too much on trees and stuff

Because they can, like,
give out on you.

Thank you.

Jesse's skill set
seems pretty strong.

I like somebody who's aware
of their environment.

Jesse:
I'm sure you know that.

No, it's all good.
It's all good.

Wes: she's very smart,
very observant.

I'm very excited to work
with her.

While we've got this
vantage point,

I think we've got
to pick a spot,

Even if it's not perfect...

-Yeah.
-...and make it happen.

How much daylight do you think
we have left?

We don't have very long before
the night starts settling in.

And you know what?
The lower we get,

Just the wetter it gets
from the rainy season.

You see this big scraggly tree
over here?

Yeah.you want to lean-to that?

Sounds good.all right.

Jesse: everything in this valley
feels super wet.

Wes: I don't think there's
a dry spot in this canyon,

But I really don't see
a whole lot of other options.

There is no way we're going
to get through this night

Without rain.

And with the temperatures
dropping with the rain,

It's going to be a cold night

If we don't get
something going here.

I'll tell you what I'll do is
I'll work on the structure part.

Okay.
I'm going to go get some palms.

All right.

Wes: my partnership with jesse
is going well.

I'm feeling really optimistic
about our partnership.

Wes seems, like,
super respectful.

Wes: I know she's got
some experience.

I wonder, really, how much.

But, hey, she's down there
whacking palm leaves,

Trying to get us stuff
for a roof.

I know I shouldn't be
in a panic,

And I'm trying
to keep myself calm,

But I know
we have limited time.

I'll deal with water tomorrow.

I...

Really, um, hope we picked
a good shelter location.

I think there's a chance that,
if it rains,

We're going to get flooded.

Aah!

♪♪

Ow!

Holy *bleep*.

Hey! Are you okay, jesse?

♪♪

Aah!

♪♪

Ow!

Holy *bleep*.

Hey! Are you okay, jesse?
What happened?

I just -- I got stung,
but I'm good.

Just -- I think we should
just keep building the shelter.

Are you sure?
Yep.

Narrator:
the toxic sting of the brazilian
wasp can cause swelling,

Vomiting and, in some cases,
anaphylactic shock.

Jesse:
got stung in the eye.

I don't want to worry wes unless
there's a reason to worry,

But I'm wondering if my eyelid
is going to swell up.

I think these tiny little wasps
are what stung me on the eyelid,

But they seem like
they've calmed down now.

As long as I don't try
and cut the palm they're on,

I think we're good.

Ah! Ow. Okay.

Not going to cut any more there.

Oh, that one got me good.

I need to get more palms
for the thatching,

Even if my lip really hurts.

Wes: she's tough as nails.

She's taken two stings already,
and other than a little yip,

She hasn't complained
one damn time.

Oh, wow.
Awesome.

It's a time-consuming process,
building a decent shelter,

And then you don't know
how decent it is

Until it starts raining.

This camp spot,
I'm not a fan of it at all.

This is, I think, what we had
to choose for tonight,

But as far
as a permanent location, yeah,

I think we'll be
pushing on tomorrow.

It's all about
the first 24 hours.

You got to have
a decent first night.

I mean, it's not raining.

So that's something.

Hey, guess what's happening.

What?
It's raining.

I'm not lying.

♪♪

We're trying real hard
to get out of the rain

And trying real hard
to get some fire going.

Jesse: it's, like, really
starting to get dark.

Yeah. It is really starting
to get dark now.

Just tell me when you want me
to jump in on something.

-Okay.
-And I will.

Otherwise,
I'll leave you alone.

Wes: I can see that
she's struggling.

I'm really trying to be
a team player,

And I pretty much will stop

What I'm doing to help her
with anything she needs.

Okay. You want to jump in?yep.

Oh, *bleep*.
Dang it.

Ow, ow, ow. I just --got a little warm though, huh?

of the 21 days,

Blow on the ground.

Oh!

It's gone. Wow.

Wes:
last night was tough.

It was a long night.

In fact, I can't remember
a longer night.

♪♪

I'm really anxious to get going
to find shelter location 2.0.

Well, let's look at the map.all right.

We really feel that we need
to get in a drier environment,

Even if it doesn't have
the same resources.

A drier environment
will also give us

A better chance
at getting a fire going.

This looks rockier and kind of
browned-out on the map,

So hopefully it's drier.

Yeah.
It looks a lot drier.

And maybe some cliff shelters.

Hey, that wouldn't be bad,
either.

We are definitely on
to less greener pastures.

This place held so much promise,
but it was god-awful.

Hopefully, this doesn't
take all day.

There's a giant snail.

Get out of here.

Oh, my god.

Are you going to
call him gary?

Gary?

Sure, we can call him gary.

That's going to be
so much protein.

Oh, that's awesome.

We just have to keep it, like,
wet and hydrated

Until we have fire.

All right.
Well, let's get to our location,

And let's make that fire,
like, number one.

That'll be awesome.cool.

All right.
We got to be getting close.

Oh, god.

He's not happy.
Gary.

He's trying to make a getaway.yeah.

I feel like he's trying
to flee the shell.

We really don't want him
to die until we cook him.

I just hope he makes it.

Oh, my god.
This is a tough trail.

Ah!

Wes, are you okay?

I'm starting to get dehydrated.

I would have never expected
to be dehydrated

On day 2, never.

I'm just really starting
to feel pretty sluggish.

I don't want to weigh you down.

Jesse starts going so fast,

And I really can't
keep up with that.

I think I see
where we're going.

You mean way the hell
over there?

I mean, holy smokes.

Dude, that's, like,
1/2 mile.

So maybe that's where
her youth steps in.

Are you seeing this up here?

These look a lot
like the cliffs on the map.

Wes: being as late in the day
as it's getting,

Didn't think it was going
to take 2/3 of the day.

It's going to put us at a real
deficit for making a shelter.

♪♪

Narrator: jesse and wes have
traveled over 8 miles to arrive

At a unique and rugged landscape
known as the city of rocks.

These sandstone outcroppings
have formed

Over millions of years,

Creating the perfect habitat
for venomous scorpions,

Rattlesnakes...

...and jaguars.

But it's the area's
aggressive insects

That can be
the most threatening,

Including arapua bees that build
their hives on the rock walls

And will die to defend them.

Jesse: this spot over here
looks like it could be dry.

It might be the best choice
for tonight.

Oh, good lord.

This place looks
five times worse.

What do you think about
where you'd have a fire?

We'd have to have
the fire up in here.

We're exhausted, and we really
don't have time to dig in

And build a full shelter like we
thought we were going to have,

And so we've got
a little makeshift

Overhang that we're going to
try to hole up in tonight.

I'm going to kind of wander
down here

And see if I can find
a decent water source.

I wish I had more energy
for trying to start this fire

Because it's going to be
a huge energy output.

Fire feels really crucial
right now,

Especially because we want
to be able to cook gary.

All right. I need to go find
firewood materials.

♪♪

Wes:
jesse and I have a lot to do
still before nightfall,

But we haven't drank water.

I mean, we're thirsty
constantly,

So I've got to find
a good source that's close.

Look at these termites.

Or -- or are they -- no.

That's definitely bees.

Oh, my god. Oh, my god.

Ah! Ah!

I can't believe that
just happened as I said that.

Holy *bleep*.

Wes: I'm trying to find some
close water source,

And it looks like this
is kind of a ravine headed down.

So I'm hoping, if I follow it
a little ways,

It'll put me
onto some fresh water.

I can't really think of a time
when I felt this tired

While doing bow drill.

I don't think I've ever
wanted a fire

More in my life, actually.

so soaking wet.

Everything was wet, and we
just made a joint decision that,

"Let's get out of here.
Let's go to the dry place."

It just didn't work out
like we planned.

This area obviously gets
a lot of rain still,

But compared to where we were,
it's still the better bet.

This might be more than
I can carry.

Is there room to bring
any of the firewood in?

You know, there's really not.

There's barely room for us to be

Less afraid of us.that's so close to camp.

Look.
He was hanging out right here.

Bam, bam, bam, bam,
bam, bam, bam.

They walked the same trails
we do, you can be sure of that.

My gosh.

Narrator: jaguars are stealthy
hunters that stalk their prey

Before launching
a surprise attack.

Unlike most cats, jaguars k*ll
with one powerful bite,

Piercing the skull
or neck of their victim.

There's a ton more over here.

Is there really?yeah. Someone hangs out.

And now he's 20 feet
from camp.

It's pretty dang close.

I just say that the cats are
getting more familiar with us.

It's very unnerving knowing
that your life really

Is at risk out here.

Oh, my god. He's huge.what?

Okay, on the back side
near the beehive is, like,

A 10-inch lizard.

Holy *bleep*.

This is, like,
the biggest thing I've seen.

Don't forget, of course,
that that is the bee area.

That bee thing, man.

We don't want any part
of that.

He just lowered himself.

Jesse:
what do you want to do?

Running in there waving a stick,
I'm not too big on.

Those bees will tear us
a new one.

Yeah.
I'm going to go for it.

I need to just, like, run in,

Lob a couple rocks,
and disappear.

It's a long shot,
but when he's this big...

Yeah.

...you just can't not try.

All right.
They already know we're here.

Oh, be careful.
Don't get eaten alive.

Oh, ow!
Damn it. Nope.

Oh, okay.

Just stay still.

Oh, my god.

There we go.

Ooh, he's a juicy one!
Thank you very much.

Ah, we'll let him...

Gee.
