Narrator: THEY SURVIVED
IN PAIRS AND IN GROUPS,

AND NOW THE BEST OF THE BEST

ARE TAKING ON THEIR GREATEST
CHALLENGE YET --

TO SURVIVE 21 DAYS...

HOLY *BLEEP*

...WITH NO SUPPORT...

OH, MY GOD!

...NO ONE TO WATCH
THEIR BACK...

Man: THIS IS MY SHOT.

Narrator:
...COMPLETELY EXPOSED.



I'M TERRIFIED.

CAPTIONS PAID FOR BY
DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS

IT LOOKS LIKE
IT'S GONNA BE ROUGH.

I MEAN, I KNOW
IT'S GONNA BE ROUGH.

IT'S LIKE A GIANT PUZZLE
OUT HERE.

I JUST GOT TO FIGURE IT ALL OUT,
PUT IT ALL TOGETHER.

I CAN'T GET COMPLACENT OUT HERE,
BEING ALONE.

JUST CAN'T LET MY GUARD DOWN.

I'M GONNA HAVE TO BE
EXTREMELY ALERT,

EXTREMELY AWARE.

I'M NOT REALLY SURE
IF I'M 98% EXCITED, 2% SCARED

OR 98% SCARED, 2% EXCITED.

IT'S GOOD TO HAVE
A HEALTHY AMOUNT OF FEAR.



IT'LL KEEP YOU ALIVE BECAUSE
THIS TERRAIN IS A LOT DIFFERENT

THAN MY LAST CHALLENGE
IN SOUTH AFRICA.

LAST TIME, I WAS COMPLETELY
SURROUNDED BY MOUNTAINS,

SOMETHING THAT
I'M VERY USED TO.

THERE'S NO MOUNTAINS AROUND.

THIS IS FLAT, YOU KNOW,
LOTS OF TALL GRASS.

PREDATORS LOVE TO HUNT AND STALK
THEIR PREY IN THE TALL GRASS.

DAMN.

MY NAME'S RYAN HOLT,
AND I'M FROM ROXBURY, MAINE.

AND I RUN A HOSTEL
AND WILDERNESS GUIDING SERVICE.

I'VE DONE THREE PREVIOUS
CHALLENGES --

IN THE EVERGLADES,

SOUTH AFRICA, AND THE BAHAMAS,

AND I'M BACK NOW
FOR NUMBER FOUR.

Narrator: RYAN'S SOLO
SURVIVAL RATING, OR SSR,

WAS ESTABLISHED BASED ON HOW
HE FARED ON HIS PAST CHALLENGES

IN THREE CATEGORIES --

SELF-RELIANCE, MENTAL TOUGHNESS,
AND SKILLS.

ON HIS 21-DAY CHALLENGE
IN THE EVERGLADES,

RYAN'S PARTNER LEFT ON DAY 16.

HE SNARED AN ALLIGATOR
WITH A HANDMADE BOOMSTICK NOOSE,

WHICH HELPED HIM SURVIVE
THE REMAINING 5 DAYS ALONE.

ON HIS 14-DAY CHALLENGE
IN THE BAHAMAS,

RYAN WAS RATTLED...

HOLY *BLEEP*

...WHEN HE CAME WITHIN A FEW
FEET OF A HAMMERHEAD SHARK,

BUT ULTIMATELY
HE SURVIVED TO THE END.

ON RYAN'S 40-DAY CHALLENGE
IN SOUTH AFRICA...

I FEEL LIKE IF I DON'T JUST GO
ON THAT SOLO PART

OF THE JOURNEY
THAT I'M GONNA REGRET IT.

...HE LEFT HIS GROUP
TO GO IT ALONE ON DAY 28.

WOW!
LOOK AT THAT.

HE HAD SUCCESS FINDING FOOD
ON HIS OWN,

BUT THEN ATE
CONTAMINATED FRUIT...

OH, MY GOD!...AND HAD TO BE

EVACUATED THAT SAME NIGHT.

IT HURTS SO BAD.

RYAN BEGINS
HIS "ALONE" CHALLENGE

WITH A SOLO SURVIVAL
RATING OF 8.3.

Ryan: I WOULD SAY THAT
THIS CHALLENGE HERE

IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE
BY FAR.

THIS IS A PERSONAL REDEMPTION.

BECAUSE OF MY LAST CHALLENGE,
I CAME OUT HERE WITH A MIND-SET

THAT I'M NOT GONNA EAT
ANYTHING BESIDES MEAT.

THIS TIME AROUND, I PLAN
ON HUNTING BIG GAME

WITH A PRIMITIVE LONGBOW.

I'M GONNA BE STRONGER
BY THE TIME I LEAVE HERE.

MARK MY WORDS.

ALL RIGHT.

NOW IT'S STARTING TO FEEL
A LITTLE MORE LIKE HOME.

I THINK I SEE SOME OF MY ITEMS
WAITING FOR ME.

Narrator: FOR THIS CHALLENGE,
RYAN WAS ALLOWED TO CHOOSE

JUST THREE ESSENTIAL ITEMS
TO KEEP HIM ALIVE.

BRAND-NEW CUSTOM KNIFE,

POT HERE TO BOIL WATER,

AND LAST,
BUT DEFINITELY NOT LEAST,

I'VE GOT MY LONGBOW.

OH, LOOK AT THIS.

INSIDE THE SATCHEL, GOT MY MAP.

IF I CAN GET MYSELF
ON A GAME TRAIL AROUND HERE

AND FIND
WHERE IT STARTS TO FORK,

AND YOU FOLLOW IT LIKE AN ARROW,
IT'LL POINT ME TO WATER,

SO THAT'S WHAT
I'M GONNA BE LOOKING FOR.

OKAY, AND THE SOLO JOURNEY
BEGINS.

LET'S GO FIND WATER.

Narrator:
RYAN WILL BE VENTURING OUT

INTO THE SEMIARID
LIMPOPO REGION OF SOUTH AFRICA,

ALSO KNOWN AS THE "GREAT NORTH,"

WHERE TEMPERATURES CAN REACH

A STIFLING
104 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT.

IN THIS EXTREME HEAT,

HE COULD SWEAT UP TO
1 QUART OF WATER AN HOUR

AND QUICKLY SUFFER
FROM DEHYDRATION.

BEING ALONE, RYAN WILL ALSO BE

AN EASY TARGET
FOR THE MOST LETHAL

AND OPPORTUNISTIC
PREDATORS IN THE WORLD --

SPOTTED HYENAS,
WHO WILL AMBUSH ANY ANIMAL

THAT STRAYS FROM THE PACK

AND CAN CHASE THEIR PREY

AT SPEEDS
OF UP TO 37 MILES PER HOUR;

LEOPARDS, WHO SEE SEVEN TIMES
BETTER IN THE DARK THAN HUMANS

AND CAN POUNCE UNDETECTED
FROM THE TREES TO MAKE A KILL.

Ryan:
I'M NOT OUT HERE TO SURVIVE.

I'M NOT OUT HERE TO CRAWL
TILL THE END ON DAY 21.

I'M OUT HERE TO THRIVE.

THIS IS THICK.

I DON'T LIKE THIS AT ALL.

LOTS OF ANIMAL TRACKS ALREADY.

THESE ARE SOME BIG PRINTS.

BEFORE I GO ANY FURTHER,

I'M GONNA PUT ONE
IN THE CHAMBER.

IT'S HOT.

AND I'VE BEEN WALKING
FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW.

I'D LOVE TO FIND A WATER SOURCE
SOON 'CAUSE IT'S HOT.

THE SUN IS JUST BEATING
DOWN ON ME.

IT REALLY JUST DRAINS ME.

I'LL PROBABLY LOSE ALL THE WATER
I HAVE IN MY BODY

RIGHT NOW,
SO THAT COULD BE A REAL PROBLEM.

♪♪

WE'VE GOT TWO GAME PATHS
HERE MERGING TOGETHER,

KIND OF CREATING AN ARROW.

AN ARROW THAT POINTS TO WATER.

THE FURTHER I MAKE IT DOWN
THIS WASHED-OUT, DRIED-UP RIVER,

AS FAR AS I CAN SEE
THROUGH THESE TREES,

I SEE A LITTLE BIT
OF A REFLECTION.

OH, YEAH, THIS IS WATER.

LOOKS LIKE A SWAMP.

BEEN WALKING
FOR A COUPLE HOURS NOW,

AND I JUST CAME UP
ON THIS HUGE BODY OF WATER.

IT'S PRETTY SWAMPY.

SO FAR, I DON'T SEE ANYTHING
BESIDES WATER BIRDS.

BUT FOOD IS THE LAST THING
I NEED RIGHT NOW.

AS YOU CAN SEE,
I'M SWEATING A LITTLE BIT.

THE MINUTE I STOP SWEATING,
THAT BECOMES A REAL ISSUE.

THAT MEANS I HAVE NO WATER
LEFT TO SWEAT OUT.

SO I THINK I NEED FIRE,
WATER, SHELTER, THEN FOOD.

THAT'S A GOOD THORN TREE
RIGHT THERE.

I THINK I FOUND A WINNER.

I THINK THIS IS GONNA BE
A GOOD PLACE TO CALL HOME.

CHANGED MY MIND-SET.

I THOUGHT I WAS GONNA START
WITH FIRE FIRST.

ONLY GOT A COUPLE HOURS
LEFT BEFORE SUNSET,

AND I MUST HAVE PROTECTION
FROM PREDATORS BEFORE NIGHTFALL.

I'M BY MYSELF, SO I DON'T
HAVE TO BUILD A BIG BOMA.

♪♪

THORNS, YOU HATE THEM,
BUT YOU NEED THEM.

THE FIRE AND ALL THESE THORN
TREES ARE THE ONLY PROTECTION

I'M GONNA HAVE
AT NIGHTTIME OUT HERE ALONE

AGAINST THE BIG CATS.

JUST LEAVE THAT RIGHT THERE.

I'M ALREADY STARTING TO FEEL
THE EARLY ONSET STAGES

OF DEHYDRATION.

Narrator:
ALONG WITH EXCESSIVE THIRST,

FATIGUE AND DRY MOUTH

ARE SOME OF THE EARLY
SYMPTOMS OF DEHYDRATION.

DEHYDRATION'S
PUTTING ME IN CHECK.

THERE'S NOT A SINGLE
WATER SOURCE OUT HERE

THAT YOU CAN DRINK CONFIDENTLY.

WITHOUT BOILING IT,
YOU'RE GONNA GET SICK.

AFTER GETTING SICK ON MY LAST
CHALLENGE IN SOUTH AFRICA,

THAT'S THE LAST THING
I WANT TO HAPPEN.

I GOT TO PUKE.

NO,
I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE.

I'D BETTER GET MY FIRE
GOING FAST.

I'M STILL A GOOD HOUR AWAY
FROM HAVING FRESH WATER.

TAKE THIS APART.

ON THE FIRST TRY.

WHEN I ATE

GOOD MORNING.

FIRST 2 DAYS HAVE BEEN KIND

GETTING USED TO

WITH NEW ENERGY.

I'M TAKING OFF ON MY MORNING
WALK NICE AND EARLY

BEFORE IT GETS TOO HOT,

AND LOOK FOR A SPOT TO BUILD
A BLIND FOR THE BIG GAME,

SO THAT'S THE GAME PLAN TODAY.

NOW, IF I DON'T EAT
SOMETHING TODAY,

IT'LL BE DAY 3 WITHOUT ANY FOOD,

ONCE AGAIN.

Ryan: I HYDRATED LAST NIGHT.

I HOPE IT'S ENOUGH TO CARRY ME
THROUGH ON THIS LONG TREK.

OUT HERE, THIS IS
THE TALLEST GRASS

I'VE SEEN SINCE I'VE BEEN OUT
HERE, AND IT DOES NOT SIT WELL.

NOT ONLY DO PREDATORS STALK
AND PREY IN THIS AREA,

BUT, ALSO, THE VENOMOUS SNAKES
THAT ARE OUT HERE --

SPITTING COBRAS
AND BLACK MAMBAS.

THEY HANG OUT IN THE GRASS, TOO.

Narrator:
LETHAL AND HIGHLY AGGRESSIVE,

BLACK MAMBAS CAN GROW UP
TO 14 FEET LONG.

AND THEY CAN MOVE AT A SPEED
OF 12 MILES PER HOUR.

Ryan: I AM, LIKE, EYE LEVEL
WITH THIS GRASS,

AND I DON'T SEE IT
OPENING UP ANY TIME SOON.

*BLEEP* THIS GRASS.

♪♪

IT'S STARTING TO GET HOT.

THE SUN'S COMING UP.

I CAN ALREADY FEEL IT.

AS I WALK OUT HERE,
IT'S GONNA BE A LOT HOTTER.

I WON'T LAST LONG.
NOT IN THIS HEAT.

THE LAST PLACE I WANT TO BE --
IN HERE.

QUITE THICK, HUH?

HOPEFULLY IT OPENS UP HERE SOON.

TALLER THAN ME.

THE ADRENALINE RUSHING
THROUGH MY VEINS

BECAUSE OF HOW TALL
THIS GRASS IS AROUND ME.

I'M STILL NOT OUT OF IT YET.

AH, MAN.

GOING THROUGH ALL THAT
TALL GRASS,

I REALLY FEEL LIKE
I CAN'T BREATHE.

*BLEEP*

THIS BOW IS GETTING HEAVY.

DOESN'T SEEM LIKE I'M DOING
A WHOLE LOT OF WORK,

BUT WHEN YOU'RE SORT OF, LIKE,

WALKING THAT SLOWLY
THROUGH TALL GRASS,

AND YOUR HEART RATE'S GOING
THAT FAST FOR THAT LONG,

WHEN YOU GET A SECOND
TO BREATHE, YOU'RE TIRED.

YOU JUST FEEL TIRED.

PHEW! IT FEELS LIKE A...

FINALLY, I THINK IT OPENS UP.

I'M ALONE.
I MEAN, I'M CLEARLY ALONE.

MAN, THIS IS A TREK.

YEAH, IT FEELS LIKE I SHOULD
HAVE BEEN THERE BY NOW.

WOW, THAT IS GNARLY.

I'M SEEING MORE AND MORE BONES
IN THIS DRIED-OUT RIVERBED.

OH, DAMN!

THAT'S A LEG.

THAT'S A FRESH KILL.

CLOSE BY.

I'M GETTING THE HELL
OUT OF HERE.

NOTHING IS GONNA STOP ME
FROM FINISHING THIS WALK.

*BLEEP*

THEY JUST SCARED
THE *BLEEP* OUT OF ME.

I'M STILL ALIVE!

THERE'S A PARADISE OF
A WATER SOURCE STRAIGHT AHEAD,

AND IT LOOKS LIKE RIGHT
AT THE END OF IT IS MY "X."

FROM HERE, EXTRACTION
IS REAL CLOSE BY.

I CAN FEEL THE END REALLY
NEARBY, AND I'M, LIKE, HESITANT.

I KIND OF WANT IT,
BUT I KIND OF DON'T.

LEAVING IT
FEELS LIKE YOU'RE LEAVING

A LITTLE PIECE OF YOU BEHIND,
BUT THAT'S ALL RIGHT.

LIFE IS GOOD BACK HOME.

LOTS TO LOOK FORWARD TO.

AND I'M BRINGING A WHOLE
NEW ENERGY BACK WITH ME.

♪♪

OH, BOY!

LOOKS LIKE THAT'S MY RIDE.

I HAD A REALLY AMAZING CHALLENGE
OUT HERE.

IT WAS THE MOST POWERFUL
ONE I'VE BEEN THROUGH.

ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL
EXPERIENCES I'VE EVER HAD.

AND I DON'T
WANT TO GET ON THAT.

I KNOW I HAVE TO,
BUT MY TRANSFORMATION

WAS SO HUGE OUT HERE.

YOU KNOW, THAT CLIMACTIC BATTLE
BETWEEN JUST MERE SURVIVING

AND THRIVING, AND I THRIVED.

THIS WAS AN EPIC REDEMPTION.

TO BE ABLE TO COME OUT HERE,
BACK TO SOUTH AFRICA,

AND KICK IT OFF ALONE,
FINISH ALONE,

AND DO EVERYTHING
IN BETWEEN BY MYSELF

REALLY OPENED MY EYES
TO WHAT I'M CAPABLE OF.

Narrator: RYAN LOST A TOTAL OF
17 POUNDS DURING THE CHALLENGE.

HE FOUGHT HIS WAY BACK
FROM DEBILITATING DEHYDRATION

AND THRIVED ON BIG GAME.

HIS SOLO SURVIVAL RATING
RISES TO 9.8.

I PUSHED MY LIMITS MUCH FURTHER
THAN I EVER THOUGHT.

NONE OF THOSE VICTORIES,
ALL OF THE --

THE HARVEST, THE IMPALA --

NONE OF IT WOULD HAVE BEEN
AS SWEET

WITHOUT THE TRIALS AND ERRORS,

THE STRUGGLES
IN THE FIRST 2 WEEKS.

OW-OOOOOWWW!

21 DAYS! ALONE!

I LIVED OUT HERE MORE THAN
MOST PEOPLE LIVE IN A LIFETIME.
