I'm Bear Grylls
I've been to the top of Mount Everest
And crossed the oceans
frozen Arctic.
Now my challenge is to be abandoned
near an island in the Pacific Ocean.
Every year thousands of people have
problems in this sea.
I'll show you what you
need to know to survive here.
Deadliest Catch
I'm flying over the Pacific Ocean
over 30 thousand islands with
Most of them are uninhabited
It may seem like a paradise
but can be deadly
huge waves currents
unexpected many sharks
make this one of the ocean
most dangerous on earth
if you are in the water will
need to know how to survive.
I'll be in the same situation
anyone who has had this problem
ocean without a life jacket.
All I have is a knife the clothes
the body and the crew
My mission is to get one of these
islands and from there go to a safe place.
The wind seems to be taking me in
right direction to that island
are some 3 km from there but what
My concern here are the currents
and if they will let me
reach the island or not ...
recently succeeded in 3 children
survive after their parents died
when their boat capsized.
after spending 6 days
clinging to the hull of the boat
they then were forced to swim 8 km
in waters full of sharks to
a desert island.
They survived for a week
drinking rainwater and eating blackberries
before being rescued ...
if you are at sea for kilometers of
land the secret is to save energy
this is to swim long distances is
best swimming side and conserve energy
for rebenta??es around the island.
the Pacific islands are known
for its strong surf
and this will be an immediate problem
how to get ashore.
Waves and currents are so strong
it is difficult to get to the rocks ...
This powerful undertow is created by
waves hitting the rocks.
North American waterways each year
because they panic and try to
swim against the current
and quickly become exhausted.
The best technique is to swim parallel to the
coast until you no longer feel the
current pull it.
Then you come to the beach.
Swim breast keeping the head
out of the water and look for the best
access point.
I finally succeeded
But I need water
me and shelter.
But first I need to explore the island to
see what resources it has.
But this part of the island is
surrounded by cliffs.
I am a climber but there
basic techniques you can use.
First find the best route with more
places with support for hands and feet
use your hands to guide and their
legs to push.
Inexperienced climbers tire fast
they try to go only with the arms.
Sound like paradise ...
but even in paradise you do not
survive without food and water.
this point of observation
I can see a beach
seems to be sheltered from the wind and I
I can see palm trees and can have food.
So that's where I go.
But not a ground like this
be careful
the vegetation can hide
funding gaps between the rocks.
Down in this valley seems impossible
because all around is
surrounded by vertical rocks ...
but I found here
fig Bengal and its roots ...
grow along the face of
rock and go to the bottom.
These roots can be
a means to descend.
This part is difficult.
Technically it is more difficult
fall than rise
because it is much harder to see you
where to place the feet and hands
but it is the same rules
you have to relax and go slow
and not move without one hundred percent
sure that the feet and hands are
well supported.
and you can make some one thousand
times but to err is only one.
the most important thing is to always maintain
three points of contact with the tree.
you should not support
with only one hand.
This part is difficult because it is
here where the roots grew
and the rocks of the cliff
are unraveling.
My arms are burning.
I'm running out of strength but
I went down and I'm in the jungle.
I want to get to the beach as soon as possible but
is easy to become disoriented in the dense
Wow look!
Look at the bamboo is
simply amazing
Bamboo is very versatile can use
to shelter spear and other things
essential to survive
and I'll take some with me.
Wow look at this and the risk of
down was truly worth it.
This will be perfect and is a thousand times
more sheltered from the place I got.
It will be a good place to camp and
I'll also be able to fish here.
Now the big question:
- I can not find water?

Review: Decon RW9.
There are over 30 thousand islands on the ocean
peaceful and many are uninhabited.
If you're lost on an island like this there
chances that someone is looking for you.
Then you have to be sure
seen by a rescue group
you need to build a
signal fire.
I want to make the bonfire the highest
I can and that is also the most
flammable possible
to burn very fast and produces light
I want to start with this huge pile
dried leaves of trees to be
use as a wick and then I'll use
these dried leaves of coconut tree and then
make a tripod around the wick.
But I will not turn on now I
wait a boat or plane appear
and then I also picked up some leaves
green and put in back to avoid
water intake and keep the leaves
droughts but also produce smoke.
If the rescue come the day I
I need this smoke.
But I have to light another fire now
that must burn constantly to
may light up the sign at any time.
to light the fire I'll use
a technique called * Fire Plow
widely used in the Pacific Islands.
The hibiscus that grows throughout Polynesia
is a perfect wood to use
the bow and spike as has
a low moisture content.
and that helping it going because the sweat
dripping from my nose is down two
times here I need to start again but
let the sweat fall on the left
Come on to almost there!
creating sufficient friction between the arch
and the base you can have an ember that
can be exploited to turn
a strand of coconut shells
coals have already done here
just turn the lock
And soon there will be fire
There you are!
We fire.
Staying warm is no problem here but
the sun is punishing and exposed to
Wind and rain can end up with health
then I'll build a simple shelter.
the hibiscus is a very useful tree and he
is easy to find near the islands
Mexico's Pacific coast and you recognize
the leaves heart-shaped
its smooth bark is excellent
pra tie anything.
Normally I would build the shelter in
shadow but my priority here is
be visible to a rescue that is
flying and any other rescue.
What am I going to do is hold that
most of the fiber shell.
In the first layer I use leaves
dried palm which is very abundant
and I do not waste a lot
energy to find them
and above will use green leaves
they resist water better.
survive is a question
both mental and physical
and sometimes something as simple as a
Diving can lift your spirits.
Usually on islands such as this are
uninhabited because they have no
source of drinking water and the best way
to hydrate is getting those coconuts
and I want to have a problem they
there are ten twelve feet high
and get them will not be easy.
is a technique when climbing these
trees always keep a pressure
the trunk with the heels and toes
feet and switch between hands and feet.
You need to have strong thighs if
know how to ride will be very good at it
but my thighs are
burning and I'm only halfway ...
Coconuts can save your life in this
situation but also k*ll.
People die every year because
coconuts falling on their heads.
A coconut weighs an average of almost two kilos
and can hit the ground with a force of
a metric ton.
I want them the greens are
new and they contain much more water
older the Browns who are in
beach. These greens are much richer
in nutrients and the way I
will take just keep spinning it.
And should fall at any time.
And here he comes ... and there he goes.
Cool.
Down the tree is more difficult
and painful than you think.
I'll tell you this is not something you
will want to do if you are a man.
Coconuts are rich in potassium which
body loses when you sweat.
It's wonderful.
It also has vitamin C and carbohydrates
being a good source of energy ...
And it is not surprising that the Polynesians
call the palm-tree of life.
I met one of the survivors of
tsunami of 2005 that was rescued from
a desert island who survived
shows as well as the coconut
can save lives.
Two sailors survived for
a week in an island
after their boat sank
after spending the night clinging to
wrecks the tide took them to an island
desert where there was water ...
they survived on
coconuts and crustaceans
until rescued seven days after
when the flag was improvised
sighted by a plane.
But if the rescue does not appear?
It's my second day on the island and if you
is in this situation your next
Priority will be food.
I'll try their luck in the ocean.
First I need to do a lan?a.Esse
Bamboo is a beginning to prevent
Split bamboo I need to use some
peel hibiscus wrap it around
Now I leave the tip of the bamboo and
assim.agora fit I can do
four corners sharp.
The sharper easier
will be trying to catch a fish.
I'll try right.
And it will be useful if I need me
defend because these waters are areas
hunting of sharks ...
You're getting very sharp now and this is
even the best casts I can
do to fish.
There are many fish here I
just need to catch them
but there are risks some fish are
poisonous and others can attack me
then keep your hands away
of any hole or crack
because the fish can moray
attack everything you see
and also not try to eat them
morays cause ciguatera
the most common food poisoning
for seafood in E.U.A.
I can only hold my breath for two
minutes before returning to the surface.
Of all animals humans have the
less able to hold their breath.
But I need to continue and I would
more spirit a good meal.
This turtle would give me a meal
delicious but in the late 70 they
joined the list of extinction I only
eat if you were very desperate.
I'm out of breath but I definitely
I'm getting hold your breath for
longer than the first time
and this is what I gotta do go
increasing the time gradually.
Meet with a shark
was not what I expected
luckily this is a sand shark a
less aggressive species here
but this is a reminder that can
be others around.
Then it's time to leave the water and fast.
but I will not give up it is at these times
you need to keep trying
and if not work then
arrange a new plan.
I'll try a traditional technique
used by the inhabitants of these islands
I'm looking for a plant that can
be used to poison fish.
The fish poison is common in all peaceful
it has oval leaves and is
found near the back ...
the poison is in the roots only use roots
small and fresh it contains more venom.
Often the fish are caught
these rock pools at low tide
and what I'll do is grind these
timbo roots to catch the oil it
and this is really cool just need to grind
and then stir it into the water.
In minutes any fish that has
contact with it will float
the surface.
The plant and roots contain rotenone
a natural toxin used for centuries
by native peoples to catch fish
and the poison has no harmful effects on
humans then it is safe to eat fish.
Legal caught eight that's dinner.
Now that caught the fish I need
cook them and what I'll do is
bake them in what they call immunity and it is
an oven made of traditional Hawaiian
stones and I always wanted to do this but
never had time to do properly
first you have to dig a hole
so now I use my catcher
giant that I did before
that was pretty cool.
and I can get one of these stones and
put them here and are very hot
and they are going to bake the fish ...
then I wrap them ...
these stones will be hot for
many many hours and the sand is a
excellent insulator.
Well to bake these fish I'm
wrap them in leaves of melaleuca
and these leaves are very important
for the Polynesian people are known
to combat aging which
is very good but more importantly
that will give flavor and retain moisture.
That will be right in the middle
and will cook in steam
I will now tie it together ...
And now ready for baking.
So I'll use some of these
sheets to cover the bottom of the oven
'm here more leaves
up and just wait
for over an hour ...
It should be ready I can not wait.
As the fish bake I'll extract
a little oil of coconut meat
that will protect me from the
sun and sea water.
What I'm trying to do is
crushing to extract the oil
never creamy
as a sunscreen
but I just want to knead
enough to get the oil
and it is this oil that will protect me
seawater rashes and sun.
and all I need to do is turn a
little in the hand and rub the skin so
and you can tell the oil coming out and
give me a good protection.
My fish must have been baked.
Therein lies.
And I see that the eyes jumped pra
out I do not know if you can see
'll take one ...
the eyes of the fish jumped and
that means they are ready
and those you can eat whole and
this looks good ... I could stay here
indefinitely have shelter food
and what to drink but I want to go home
and tomorrow I will do something you've always wanted
build a raft and go out to the sea.
I put in the position of a stranger
an island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean
have found shelter and food I could
wait for weeks for the rescue
but if you run out of food and water you just
if you can survive off the island.
And that's what I'll do.
The natives of the Polynesian used
travel thousands of miles by canoe
similar to this these canoes
the tree trunk and when they wanted to go
further they put
stabilizer hand
much like this and this gave
more stability for the canoe
but I do not have the time or tools
to make a canoe drawn up like this
but I have great resources here very
bamboo and much rope arrangement to
and what I can do is a catamaran
a version of two fins it here.
It is far less sophisticated
but it has stability.
I can use this to get off this island.
Bamboo is used by sailors
for thousands of years for its strength and
buoyancy. There are air pockets
between the nodes of the plant and even in us
are tiny pockets of air.
To break down the bamboo one I need
build a fire in their base
because there's no way to cut it with
my knife I would take an eternity
but before doing so I'll stick a
these cameras because they are filled with air
and if I did not stick the fire will heat
air and bamboo may explode.
So I need to insert the tip of the knife
blade or just to release the pressure.
This thing is very hard but I think ...
I can to see it now could
make a hole and this
should relieve the pressure.
Now to make the fire I brought a
embers of the camp fire in these
coconut shells and is still on.
it's still on.
And I can use a Quaker
of dry woods here.
The fire almost went out and I do not
our walk another 800 meters to
the forest to get one more hot.
Cool!
I'll wrap it up with
the bark of the hibiscus.
This simple design of the catamaran
will give me more stability
and more space for supplies.
I can not wait to see it in the water.
The deck has to be strong and flexible
enough to withstand the strong waves and
waves and let me higher
possible for me to keep dry.
And because the vessel is so
heavy made under roller bamboo
for me to take
it to water more easily.
I need a candle without any candle
journey is at the mercy of the currents.
This is a part of the vessel
is a mystery to me trying to make a
sailing and this is something I never did.
And honestly do not know will not work.
If it works or not.
I weave these leaves
palm to the candle
and make a wooden structure
to support involving everything.
It may work well
I for some of these and I
tie everything together.
And it might work.
But I do not know if it will endure the rigor
the ground is the open sea.
I decided to find out how things are
conditions of the sea from the island
and are not good.
There is no way I leave this island before
these winds stop then
look at that it is a cauldron of water
busy and it's intimidating just by looking
and is as far as I can see.
Any raft would have problems in a
sea so I'll have to wait for the winds
calm down.
Then I see something in the water a bottle
and it can save my life.
If I can get the bottle will
make much difference to me
down but there will not be easy.
Waves like that can be lethal.
Recently a family was wiped out
a platform like this for a large
wave while looking at the surf.
The couple had drowned but the water pushed
son of 11 years for the rocks
when it was rescued by lifeguards.
Waves usually
has a regular pattern
they come in succession seven
and are becoming increasingly important.
So if I were the patient
adequate and comply with standards
I can avoid the waves.
The bottle floated towards deeper waters
calm I'll take the chance.
This bottle can be
essential to carry water
but now it's time to go
the sheltered side of the island and give
finishing touches on my boat.
open sea I need to have
control of the vessel.
Then I get a paddle with hibiscus.
'm Tying with a
fiber to resistance.
This also will be my rudder is a work
hard and time consuming but worth doing right
not want to be at the mercy of the currents.
My candle is also
beginning to take shape now.
Weaving is one of those things that
can not be done quickly
and is also good to have time to sit
quietly the sun set the fire is
access and I can make it calmly
and I'm feeling now is that
will definitely work
like a candle ...
And every leaf I weave I am a
step closer to my house.
After leaving I can face the
greatest fear of sailors adrift ...
Sharks.
He just hit down here.

The next morning it's raining.
But this is good news for me.
It is a way to take a bath
cool and remove the sea water to me.
This is much better than that salt.
When it rains so try
make the most.
I'll see if collect a little water and
best way to do this is ...
I just found a shell
old coconut ...
and if I put the sand in this way
one of those big leaves the rain will
drain here and fill it here since
is raining very hard to fill in
minutes. It will be a
good glass of fresh water.
In this heat you should drink at
least half a liter of water every day.
My bottle just give me
five days of water.
This is hard work but I managed
this is my candle and also
my protection against the sun
when at sea.
It was too much.
I need to make sure I have
all supplies they need
it is the following since this
sail beauty is so heavy that
I can not get it back to the beach.
I need everything that is nescess?rio
to face the ground that holds.
In the water I to taking more
coconut oil to protect me
pra sand and polish my knife.
If I sight any vessel
I will use as a signal reflector.
To me this is very exciting and
I will never forget those days
but I pray with all my heart
and soul for this to work.
It is the moment of truth if you
find that your raft will not hold
leave it and swim back but this
Polynesian design seems to be stable.
I'm off the island and the winds seem
be weaker than in recent days
I was watching them and the winds
winds finally stopped
and this is the window in the weather that I was
and I hope it stays that way
until I go a little further.
The chops will weaken my boat
and I hope that this calm will last.
But now the first problem
be open sea is the sun.
It's very hot here and the candle
you give me a bit of shade
but my biggest problem now is
amount of water splashing on me
and I can feel my skin
is getting very dry
and that's why I brought
this coconut oil.
I will now pass same to avoid
irritation caused by sea water.
The best way to keep cool is to
a swim with a time range
but it is always good to tie because there
many stories of survivors
being separated from their boats.
But there is something in the water
and I need to get out fast.
I should have looked at two
times before entering.
It's lucky I was out of the water
and usually the sharks are in
surface and you can see their
dorsal fins but these are
the bottom and I had no idea how
close when they were immersed.
When you need to leave the vessel
never take the clothes and shoes
statistically when there is a group of
people at sea usually those
are without clothes are
first to be attacked.
This is because sharks can mistake
the reflection of sunlight on the skin with a fish.
Wow look at this guy look! Wow
Those tiger sharks and the worst
bite out of all the sharks of the sea.
Look at this guy and if you are in
water being attacked the better you
can do is yell hit the water and
punching the shark in the nose or the guelrras
are the most sensitive parts of it.
This is the view that
castaways fear most.
And it is very hard to keep calm.
I built a raft and leave the island
to show you how to survive at sea.
But now I'm facing a situation
like many sailors adrift.
Wow he hit the bottom of the vessel.
I wish that they would go away soon.
Look! look! look! look!
Except the white shark the tiger is
responsible for more human deaths
than any other shark.
Wow this is not good!
But soon they get bored
me and go away.
This makes me wonder how people
survive a week after the other
these vast oceans.
It takes willpower and
determination to keep hope.
Therefore it is important to keep
busy and do everything possible to
try to find more food and water.
It's time to fish
and I'm using a hook made with the
bone of a fish that I caught on the island
a bit of bait
and a line made of hibiscus fiber
as well as a bamboo stick.
Cross your fingers for me to get something.
I'll relax and see what I can.
Hey I fished something.
Wow look at it is actually a fish
surgeon they are ugly and gross
and you can tell because look are very
sharp and here is something that
with a knife and something like
a blade and it is very sharp
can easily cut a vein
if you hold wrong.
And what I'll do is open it and ...
Can you see the backbone here and all that
I want is the fluid inside.
Not much but it's better than nothing.
One of the most incredible
survival at sea I've ever heard
was a couple of "Baileys" husband
and woman who were hit by a
whale when they were on the yacht and
ended up in a life raft
more than 100 days and they survived
eating raw sea turtles seabirds
and fish and all they had was
some safety pins and hands.
They were eventually rescued by a
small fishing boat but the clothes
they literally rotted in the body
and they had sunburn and
wounds throughout his body but survived.
This making of Farenheight 100
[38 Celsius]
but the reflection of sun on the water gives
impression that is much more.
And I run a shadow
the risk of heatstroke.
The Pacific is a vast ocean but also
has busy shipping lanes.
However it is likely that they will not
you see unless you call the
their attention first.
It has a boat there probably 6 or 8
miles I see the top of it
when he stops going up and down on
waves but surely is a boat.
I'll use this knife go sand pra
shine and use it to do a sign.
And a sign of these can be seen
? uns 10 kilometros de dist?ncia.
Great and a man was seen over
like this you just need to make a "V"
fingers and the blade angle to the sun
hide the knife and go doing this and pray
that someone there you see the deck.
Surely definitely
they are there.
Although this site seems idyllic was
much more difficult than I imagined.
And now I understand better how
the sea can be unforgiving
but also the heroism of some
people who survived it
it's almost like one of those
places that you can only enjoy
only after having been there. But for me
is definitely the time to go home.
