Overview

If lost in the rain forest, could you beat the elements and avoid death? Would YOU know what to do? When adventurers Kevin Gale, Yossi Ghinsberg and Markus Stamm followed jungle guide Karl Ruprechter into the Amazonian rain forest, they were expecting adventure, not a life and death struggle that only two of them would survive. Based on their story, former Green Beret and special forces veteran Capt. Myke Hawke shows how you can make it out of the Amazon alive. He wrestles anacondas for food, and demonstrates how to find safe water, build shelters, spot poisons, and navigate your way out of the jungle to safety.
