    Survival journal, day 3. I'm still watching old episodes with no end in sight. The Canadian talks at me, but I fear that he lost his mind long ago. The side panel whispers of a distant "Season 3". Will I ever see my family again?

      @@matthewcallgreen4551 for sure, as someone who's not enthusiastic of big waters myself I can imagine how much of a toll it takes on your mental, then on the other hand the alternative is sleeping on the bed of Amazonian jungle with an infinite amount of insects around you and what not. I agree with you, Lost at Sea was the most mentally challenging one and Amazon was the most physical.

      Yes, it's a amazing how a place so full of life, insects plants and animals has so little to survive on. You expect a lack of resources in some other places. And I did expect the danger here due to teeming life but there's very little commensurate resources unless your raised in an indigenous tribe w generations of knowledge and ability.

      I've watched a lot of survival stories of people trapped in the Amazon. In nearly every vid someone ends up running into either a venomous snake, wild boar, or wild cat within the span of a few days to 1 week. Few have survived longer. I used to think yeah there are wild animals out there but the chance of running into a jaguar isn't that likely. Hell with that! That place is crawling with vicious animals. I see why the natives built a massive fence around their town. Les was right to get the heck out of dodge. He wasn't even there but a few days and he's already being stalked by jaguar.

    I wore those same boots for 30 days on NOLS. Our instructors didn't want us to change into water shoes when we forded rivers (which were almost a daily occurence) so I spent the month with wet feet walking inside those boots. I can only imagine how much worse the fungi are in the hot amazon when it was bad at 10,000 feet!
