Born Survivor: Bear Grylls [DUPLICATE] - The Everglades

Seizoen: 1 - Aflevering: 3 / 3 - Eerst uitgezonden: 17 november 2006 - Episode ID: 37950

Bear tests his survival skills in the steamy swamps of the Florida Everglades. Every year 60 visitors die here. Some inevitably fall prey to the two million resident alligator population. Searing heat and deadly snakes claim what the gators leave behind. The Everglades is essentially a 40-mile wide, shallow river. It is an extraordinarily beautiful landscape, waterlogged, stretching out featureless for miles or diverting this way and that through mangrove forest. The waters are mostly waist-deep, but they are murky, and Bear needs to find dry land if he is to keep out of harm's, or jaws', way. But first he must cross open water and directly in his path are two 10-foot alligators. He decides to take the high route and shins over a fallen Cyprus tree. Even then he risks falling into the grip of the ever-patient predators. Spending the night in the swamps, Bear builds a shelter up a tree, with a fire to dry his feet. But with no natural mosquito repellant, there's very little rest to be had. The following day, he takes his biggest risk in the series ¿ he must swim across an alligator-infested river¿
