Anyone watch this? Started on Monday and will track 13 average blokes dropped on a small Pacific island for 4 weeks with not much more than the clothes they're wearing; a couple of knives and machetes; no food or shelter materials; and only enough water for 24 hours. Think they've had 1 day of survival training and that's it. 2 of the participants are also the cameramen so you can't accuse them of having a full production crew on hand complete with luxury trailers and a beer fridge a la 'I'm a Celebrity'!
A half hour after being dropped in the mangroves they reached their first camp site and found a boa constrictor. I'm yelling at the TV to kill it and Mrs F thinks I'm just being blood thirsty. Needless to say they don't and by end of day two they are all starving and one bloke has resorted to eating a small scorpion!
It took them about 14 hours on day two to succeed in lighting a fire using a bow drill and only then could they boil the standing water they had found or else the whole thing was going to come to a very quick end!
Looks like it could be quite entertaining. Bet they wish they'd killed the snake though
