Has anybody watched this show??
Pretty good show on the Discovery Channel , A Survival expert takes a bunch of people(read ditzy greenhorns lol) into the wild and gets em lost to see how well they survive. Last night they were in British Colombia and that group did pretty good,they actually took the guy seriously and made out ok. Tonight they were in the Arizona desert and this bunch dropped the ball big time!!! One guy even had a breakdown from heat stress and the rescue crew had to fly him out.
It came on at 8pm eastern both last night and tonite ,I dont know when its on again ,but Im gonna check the website to find out. I dont know the surival experts name but he seems to know his stuff.Pretty good show.

I saw one episode last night that took place in Arizona. The expert that was with them is the author of "98.6 Degrees: The Art of Keeping Your Ass Alive" I may have to check that book out.

It's Cory Lundin, the Abo-dude. He was at Trail Days last year. Pretty cool guy, never wears shoes anywhere.
