21:26 The words," We're not here for a holiday, we're here to survive" is so true. After reaching the island they forgot that they were on the island to survive. First priority should be fire, water, shelter and food, not fun or enjoyment.
Thats what happens when its mostly staged.. They know if they complain enough or if it gets too hard magically food will appear. or a tarp or water cans or fire kit. its not really survival.
Absolutely!… If I’m the problem, there’s a strong chance that things can be better… Maybe not “fixed”, but, definitely better, more positive, more productive…
That is exactly right, if I'm the problem, at least I can do something about it, but they pretend my individual problems are actually societal, and therefore out of our control, and it's simply not true.
definitely on the fucking spectrum how does one fail to read the room this hard. however, the island seems to have taught him to yap less and he seemed like an alright teammate by the end
Thats literally all it would take to survive the Island. Putting your ego aside like it never existed, nobody is a person anymore, everyone is a worker and what needs doing gets done.
I love the way the experience transforms those who survive, they find there real selves and gain strength. It would be interesting to interview them and their family/ friends a year after to see if it changed them in a permanent way for the better. On an entirely different note, they all feel ashamed for the detritus washed up on the beach. But people forget events like the boxing day tsunami that washed whole towns away into the sea, including thousands of tons of plastics. Its all out there floating around even now!
that doctor is a total narcissist. "If you dont help your not eating" but i bet she eats when she doesnt catch it. Or "All night telling me what to do.." but hey, women you do that times 10. lol
Man, honestly, i've watched all of there programs, yet it pisses me off watching em, almost all of em haven't got a clue, it's not hard is it, you get to where you need to be, straight away, you get some of you on the fire, whilst the rest of you get a shelter made, get yourself off the ground, once you've got the fire, you make sure you get something over it, so it wont go out, then you start looking for water and food, how hard can it be.
The thing is, they don't know each other, they are well aware that if something happens they can get a boat to take them to safety and they know they wouldn't let them die on TV, if this was really a life or death scenario, it'll probably be the same, but with cannibalism way earlier than you would expect, before they even rediscover fire
@@amosmoses5630 What happens then is 3 people work on the fire and 5 watch. Delegation is needed in these situations but no one in the modern world likes listening to everyone else because every single one of us is a special little snowflake
the problem will forever be other people. you could be prepared and driven, doesn't matter when the others aren't of the same mind, wanna go off this way and that, or simply don't like you saying facts aloud. with every season so far, it seems that it takes absolute rock bottom for people to finally change, and at that point you're always half a day from annihilation, they never really recover until they escape the island. remember how one of the groups spots an iguana atop a tree when they first hop off the boat, and walk on? they didn't know starvation and desperation yet. imagine if you take that same group at week 5, and put them at that same moment again. watch them go feral hunter-gatherer
Jup thats what i tought as well. I can tell you i had ppl. Like her around me when shit needed to get done and they made me selfcombust every time! Doing nothing let me down and if it fit them doing something unrelated and them complain about being exhausted. Uuuh im getting angry just by thinking about it. If your wellbeing and survival depends on ppl like this your just f*cked! Bottom line.
That was humiliating at 1:30:35 first ben's group stole the camp from James's group and send they send them off shouting like fvck you rich people. And yet they accepted James's group food like where's the shame? Humiliating.
because it's easier to blame someone than to say we all failed. it's a common occurrence in today's world as well, just blame the person you don't like and gang up on them.
he said he would do it, then he should do it. how do you respect someone who takes a job upon themselves for the sake of others, and then fails to do it? think of the shame any of the hunters would feel, when they failed to find food, even if the group wasn't angry with them. they say in their video diaries how badly they wanted to provide for others, and the feeling of failure. shame is a powerful tool. and james was shamelessly dancing and singing like a prat, while the others are soaked through and staring at him
@@StopFlaggingVideoshe wasn’t the one that started the rain, so again how is that his fault? He volunteered to be useful around the camp & was fighting against harsh rain and was doing it along while 7 others stayed at camp.

Yep it was pretty staged. Could just as well had picked a team of rich, fat people that never lifted a finger to do physical labor, vs a team of hardcore workers and fit people that just don't earn as much. What i would really like to see is how they would fair without any fake placed water sources and docile/drugged animals placed to create the illusion of them actually catching an animal, or planting fake plants for them to find.
There is a lot more to it than physical fitness It’s a mental game…… poor people are more mentally worked in and possibly can handle some situations better
@@bradenbart9309 most of them did not seem to handle anything better, at all. they sure laid around better. bitch and complain better. in fact, weren't the island quitters only from the poor team?
No. Have you seen the old versus young series? The old had a way worse physics but made it still. They sometimes put themselves over their limits. It is about strenght of will. This poor group does not have the willpower. And their lack of physical fitness is just a symptom of it. Why are poor people that fat? When I was on a budget I was slim! It is not about the poor quality food it is about daily routines and habbits. Now I own a house but I still just a bike for daily stuff, even when it is raining. And when it comes to food: Unhealthy food is not always cheaper, it is food for the lazy. People who do not like to peel their potatoes. 300g of potatoe chips is as expensive as 1500g of potatoes, or at least 500g of bread. And mineral water is cheaper than softdrinks. Doing press-ups is for free!
I can't belive after over taking the shelter the other group built they have the nerve to call the group that split selfish and thieves. Smh. I want to try this.
That’s like squatters in the U.S. they illegally move into a persons home that’s not in town, then scream and call police when the owner comes back . I’d never thought I’d see it in my country let alone my lifetime. Squatters have owner’s rights! Not in England I suspect?
Same here in UK mate, its called squatters rights, where if a place of business is not being used they can just move in and you cant use force or they call the police...
I mean if your gonna be having fun even for 10mins doubt it was but your seeing your whole team working/building gathering while your enjoying the ocean theres a time for that and its after your done poor group was just unserious while rich was serious i would rather have serious than un while surviving
It took them a week to talk about looking for food. Should've sent 2 people inland to look for food and fresh water while the rest were on fire/shelter duty, Day 1. I wouldn't want to be stranded with any of these fuckabouts.
This show needs a revival, in todays woke world. no fake placed water sources and animals and plants, so pick an island that can actually host 2 dozen human beings over a period of 4 weeks. Then make it a men and women challenge, but a real one, pick the men and women that have survival experience and are fit. let both teams be made up by the best of the 2 genders, not overweight and lazy to create drama. Just the best specimen on both sides. Now that would be interesting to watch. See if women ( the best picked choices !) are actually capable of keeping up or even dominate over men ( also again, the best picks) in a survival situation, no extra handouts tho !
lol I'm wondering why theres the need of competing between men and women...we supposed to help each other so we can live harmoniously.. but yeah that comes from my perspective,I dont need to compete to men to prove I am strong,men should be the pilot and the women is the co pilot...they have to work together to have a smooth land
I think mr Bear always makes sure to sneak at least one or two problematic people into every group lol. Machete? Check! Jerrycans? Check! Dramaqueen? Check! -> Ok send them off they've got all they need.
No one seems to know that there is perfectly way to purify water without making fire. Simply with climbing plants, such as lianas, or pine branches. Easy peasy.
3:28:10 This just sounds like she was already seeing the other guy and tried to blame Ben for it. "You didn't pay enough attention to me." That's a classic. Now he's out of a house, out of a family, and I bet he's still working and paying for them. I don't want to seem rude and I do not know the full extent of the situation, but I'd propose for you to get a DNA test. There have been enough men that found out their kids were not theirs after they've become to old to get any more children.
a drop in the bucket. if you travel around any island nations, be prepared to lose faith in the planet's future, because there are entire waterways that look 10x as clogged
@@StopFlaggingVideosin the earlier seasons people found bottles ropes and everything from scouring the beach lol, that same filth would defo save someone if they were stranded
So Mercedes almost got killed hanging on that broken raft for three hours, limps back to her camp in shock and exhaustion, and her team is mean to her wanting her to do chores. And when Mercedes rests to recover from her ordeal, they didn’t leave her any fish. This team should be ashamed of themselves. Did they not know what Mercedes went through? My overall impression of this season, less team and more mean! One thing though, Mercedes clearly overestimated her abilities to be on this show. With her weight, she was unable to keep up with the chores of the camp. Since a few years back, she used to be normal weight and a swim teacher, in her mind, she probably didn’t realize how much her health had deteriorated.
I can't believe Ben is a steel worker 😂. Absolutely joke, a steel worker that lazy. And I can see why rich people are rich on that Island, the difference between them is so huge.
agreed, i think the wealth difference is deceiving, this isnt about rich vs poor. its about ambition vs no ambition. those wealthy people don't seem to be "my parents were rich" wealthy, they actually have lucrative careers. it took hard work and dedication to get to that wealth. it makes sense that they'd try the hardest, take the biggest ventures. you could argue that physically demanding jobs produce harder-working people, but when i think of ben, i think of a guy who does the bare minimum, goes home and first thing he does is drink beer. he's probably not "hard-working" in his personal life. definitely didn't look very good laying there all the time, inserting himself as a squatter the moment the rich team made their home... i would be embarrassed to have this video up on the internet forever
2:03:25 lmfaoooooooooooooo bro this is actually sad. Non fishing people might not realize why this is funny, but lemme try to explain, that's a hardhead catfish, they exist in the billions and are extremely common near shore on muddy/sandy soil. They are just about the most voracious bottom feeders in the ocean, they eat anything, including each other, and they are very aggressive, and extremely stupid, I had one bite a bare hook before. Just for kicks, we had already caught more than 20 in the hour we'd been there and realized the hardy boys were biting any crap piece of bait we threw, so I just didn't put bait on and chucked a bare 1/O circle hook out, and I felt at least 3 of those idiots bump into it before a little one snatched it up. This is hilarious to me because once there's hardy boys in the water, you will catch them at all times of the day with the worst bait imaginable, and they were ALL utterly incapable lmfao they needed a net to catch a hardy boi lmfaoooooooo like bro, I bet they don't even have any weight on their line, just hook and bait and think they gonna catch something like that lmfao and they keep casting near the rocks, where the groupers and rockfish will steal your bait and take your line on a tour through dozens of underwater caves lmao I'm not a huge fan of the texture, but they do taste pretty decent and if I were in their situation, we'd be eating catfish for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Actually, nah, I bet you there's good fish in those waters, these guys are just idiots who don't seem to realize that once the sun is up, fishing is done lol early morning and late evening, night time too but tide dependent, always on a rising or falling tide, not during slack water. Also, mangrove swamps are literally a food basket, all of the best eating fish spend time in the mangrove, as well as the fruit trees that also grow in those forests, the thousands of crabs, the shrimp and oysters, and the multitude of birds and small animals that can be easily hunted or trapped. Like bro, it baffles me to no end how these people are going hungry in such a lush forest with so much life, you know how much biodiversity you need to be able to sustain large predators like caiman? It's crazy to think that they haven't eaten in weeks, that same stupid net would work wonders in the mangrove, but nah, keep setting it up near the strongest currents and big rocks lmao
You're Going To An Isolated Wild Island ! .... You got to expect the worst. You're not going to a hotel. If you did not expect this. If you didn't expect this your in some kind of DELUSION?
If this series needs a villain then I volunteer! I would split the group immediately with 3 to 4 other men. I would min/max the steps...the first 3 days is when you have useful calories, you are as useful in the first 3 days as in the next 11 days. You need a BED off of the ground, 7 metres into the bush for no beach flies and no jungle crawlies. You need the bed storm proof ASAP no sleep makes you cry-ie sad, and useless. Finding MUD means that you can strain it through a t-shirt and make clay. Mud Bricks and a chimney means that you can burn up to 1/3rd the amount of wood, ONE OF THE BIGGEST EXPENDITURES OF ENERGY. LIVE BY THE WATER SUPPLY. Fishing is pointless, NETS are where the calories are at. Though a fish caught now isn't swimming and begins to rot in the water, so nets must be checked every 4 hours and NOT LEFT OVERNIGHT. Otherwise Crocodile, snake, starch plant and sugar cane hunts are how you search or are spread out to find the money. Sugar cane in boiled water just needs a single berry, poisonous or otherwise so that the natural yeasts develop alcohol like a sour dough starter. IF YOUR TEAM FINDS ANOTHER TEAM, EITHER TRADE SMOKED FISH WITH THEM OR STEAL ONE OF THEIR JERRY CANS AT 3AM! Each man on MY TEAM should leave with 2 Crocodile skull shoulder-pads, a necklace of at least one snake skull and clothes made from a money parachute. LIE ABOUT EVER FINDING MONEY. Winning is Leaving with clay mugs filled with booze, a suit made of money parachute that you claimed that you never found, Crocodile skull shoulder pads with snake necklace... £20K+ in each mans pocket and a SMUG GRIN. I WOULD LOVE TO BE THE VILLAIN and most importantly..I'm curious just how useless I would be as a personal challenge.
But on that island, no one was rich ? It was just about attitude and willingness to overcome and work to get things done. And (sadly?) it appeared to be true. Watched the whole show and i still don't quite understand how the different sides were feeding themselves.
James skipping and singing, as well as recording a vlog adventure while on a trusted task did not help, but really it was tan and shireen’s fault the most. The flood was because tan shut down shireen’s worries of building shelter on sand(she was also angering the group then), shireen didn’t suggest moving out of the flooded area either. Though in reality it was absolutely nobodies fault. The other watchers could have scoured for termite mounds as well, they didn’t have a proper shelter from rain too.
I actually would argued about the idea building the "Britania" raft and go voer to the small island. Because I don´t think it would be anything else like the more easy to explore bigger island. But: it was a brave thing to do that. I also think Mercedes was especially brave to go on that tripp because of her condition. A explorers in history put their life on risk for the wealth of their countries. Why can´t the poor group appreciate it? They might be annoyed by Mercedes lazy behaviour before, but despite that every group should care for their members. I got a feeling that the rich group despite things go wrong, even when it is the fault of someone, pull themself together and push forward, while the poor group waste time and energy with the blame game.
First off .. these people were acting far too posh for a 100k income. Second of all .. how are you rich as a fund raiser? Don't people wonder why the person raising funds from them is rich?
Like he says multiple times in every season. He ensures that the island has enough food for them to survive. Why would there be a few wild lager animals on the island? How are these multiplying? Obviously placed. And they are fairly honest about it.
One just needs a logical brain and how to get along and not be lazy. Most of the natives in my Town in Brazil could do that, They will have a waterproof shelter off ground real fast, dont fear hunting all of them fish. And we would be chilled out!
So hard to watch. The "poor" group is not acting like a team. They are lazy. Build a shelter soon, later you wont have enough strength. You have to work on your shelter daily, make it better and comfy. You have to try to find food, try fishing every day! This bodyshaming attitude is rude. They are enough people, why not let rest 2 a day. Collect enough wood, i personally would collect from farer away to near, because it is getting harder each day. Dig a ditch around your shelter, so its not flooded so easy. So many things you can do. Its pretty hard. Of course. But there are a lot little things you can do to make it a bit easier
1:49:28 I think she is beautiful. Like id I had to rank the entire lot on do-ability, probably a solid third place. 2:11:40 I would actually bump Mercedes up second place after seeing the rest of the swagger acting that way. 2:16:31 100% the most attractive person at this point. 2:40:14 The funny thing is that merging is 100% the correct answer. Like, if not the correct answer - but is opposite of what they are currently choosing, which is obviously not working. So even if nobody wants to team - arithmetically yields food. **Like say the presence is leaving a footprint and the animals are aware of the humans habitat and naturally migrate away. When all people then in whole change location while actively hunting - would be where the animals are** ****2:52:18**** THIS IS CHEATING. He obviously received foods while attending medical camp. Which cheats them all out of 5 weeks. If you fast forward he even has high level of focus and decisive attributes - I feel robbed of my previous predictions if the game is caught at this point. 3:00:54 They should be passively setting traps and re casting the net before high tide.
Thanks for putting the whole season in one place. So much easier to watch.

Then make it a men and women challenge, but a real one, pick the men and women that have survival experience and are fit. let both teams be made up by the best of the 2 genders, not overweight and lazy to create drama. Just the best specimen on both sides.
Now that would be interesting to watch. See if women ( the best picked choices !) are actually capable of keeping up or even dominate over men ( also again, the best picks) in a survival situation, no extra handouts tho !
lol I'm wondering why theres the need of competing between men and women...we supposed to help each other so we can live harmoniously.. but yeah that comes from my perspective,I dont need to compete to men to prove I am strong,men should be the pilot and the women is the co pilot...they have to work together to have a smooth land
Ngl the best of the best would be a breath of fresh air
I think mr Bear always makes sure to sneak at least one or two problematic people into every group lol. Machete? Check! Jerrycans? Check! Dramaqueen? Check! -> Ok send them off they've got all they need.
No one seems to know that there is perfectly way to purify water without making fire. Simply with climbing plants, such as lianas, or pine branches. Easy peasy.
Or build a Filter with coal, stones and sand
@@brigitterohr6927 that won't filter out the bacteria
always good to be back on surely island, doesn't resources deminish after each time a season has been filmed there?
4:25:15: Raft falls apart at Sea: 🙄They had 150 Horsepower Spotter boat 75 Ft., away.
About every 10 minutes i kept forgetting which group is which 😅
42:00 cear grylls just turned into crip mac shit man, good shit cear grylls keep it 55th street
Free crip mac
Why do they always OM for breathing exercises? Every season. Please someone actually teach them breathing exercise for cs.
3:28:10 This just sounds like she was already seeing the other guy and tried to blame Ben for it. "You didn't pay enough attention to me." That's a classic. Now he's out of a house, out of a family, and I bet he's still working and paying for them. I don't want to seem rude and I do not know the full extent of the situation, but I'd propose for you to get a DNA test. There have been enough men that found out their kids were not theirs after they've become to old to get any more children.
Disgusting how dirty the island is. I really hope that some of the proceeds for this program goe's to cleaning up the mess.
a drop in the bucket. if you travel around any island nations, be prepared to lose faith in the planet's future, because there are entire waterways that look 10x as clogged
@@StopFlaggingVideosin the earlier seasons people found bottles ropes and everything from scouring the beach lol, that same filth would defo save someone if they were stranded
So Mercedes almost got killed hanging on that broken raft for three hours, limps back to her camp in shock and exhaustion, and her team is mean to her wanting her to do chores. And when Mercedes rests to recover from her ordeal, they didn’t leave her any fish. This team should be ashamed of themselves. Did they not know what Mercedes went through? My overall impression of this season, less team and more mean! One thing though, Mercedes clearly overestimated her abilities to be on this show. With her weight, she was unable to keep up with the chores of the camp. Since a few years back, she used to be normal weight and a swim teacher, in her mind, she probably didn’t realize how much her health had deteriorated.
They were obviously super tired of her. Understandable.
Don't think Laura is supposed to be on the non-wealthy team. She's a nurse. There's no way she's making less than 100k euro's
2:33:37 🤣 🤣 🤣
Yeah a bit different than the US tele
I am quite happy that Mercedes is leaving. No work No Food No Right to Live
I can't believe Ben is a steel worker 😂. Absolutely joke, a steel worker that lazy. And I can see why rich people are rich on that Island, the difference between them is so huge.
agreed, i think the wealth difference is deceiving, this isnt about rich vs poor. its about ambition vs no ambition. those wealthy people don't seem to be "my parents were rich" wealthy, they actually have lucrative careers. it took hard work and dedication to get to that wealth. it makes sense that they'd try the hardest, take the biggest ventures. you could argue that physically demanding jobs produce harder-working people, but when i think of ben, i think of a guy who does the bare minimum, goes home and first thing he does is drink beer. he's probably not "hard-working" in his personal life. definitely didn't look very good laying there all the time, inserting himself as a squatter the moment the rich team made their home... i would be embarrassed to have this video up on the internet forever
He is the janitor.
She's a gynaecologist and hates fish 😂😂😂
Post traumatic stress disorder
They invited the wealthier group to join them in the shelter. I would have bundled in!
2:03:25 lmfaoooooooooooooo bro this is actually sad. Non fishing people might not realize why this is funny, but lemme try to explain, that's a hardhead catfish, they exist in the billions and are extremely common near shore on muddy/sandy soil. They are just about the most voracious bottom feeders in the ocean, they eat anything, including each other, and they are very aggressive, and extremely stupid, I had one bite a bare hook before. Just for kicks, we had already caught more than 20 in the hour we'd been there and realized the hardy boys were biting any crap piece of bait we threw, so I just didn't put bait on and chucked a bare 1/O circle hook out, and I felt at least 3 of those idiots bump into it before a little one snatched it up.
This is hilarious to me because once there's hardy boys in the water, you will catch them at all times of the day with the worst bait imaginable, and they were ALL utterly incapable lmfao they needed a net to catch a hardy boi lmfaoooooooo like bro, I bet they don't even have any weight on their line, just hook and bait and think they gonna catch something like that lmfao and they keep casting near the rocks, where the groupers and rockfish will steal your bait and take your line on a tour through dozens of underwater caves lmao
I'm not a huge fan of the texture, but they do taste pretty decent and if I were in their situation, we'd be eating catfish for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Actually, nah, I bet you there's good fish in those waters, these guys are just idiots who don't seem to realize that once the sun is up, fishing is done lol early morning and late evening, night time too but tide dependent, always on a rising or falling tide, not during slack water.
Also, mangrove swamps are literally a food basket, all of the best eating fish spend time in the mangrove, as well as the fruit trees that also grow in those forests, the thousands of crabs, the shrimp and oysters, and the multitude of birds and small animals that can be easily hunted or trapped. Like bro, it baffles me to no end how these people are going hungry in such a lush forest with so much life, you know how much biodiversity you need to be able to sustain large predators like caiman? It's crazy to think that they haven't eaten in weeks, that same stupid net would work wonders in the mangrove, but nah, keep setting it up near the strongest currents and big rocks lmao
I would absolutely love to be on that show!!!
Season 1 and 5 was the best
You're Going To An Isolated Wild Island ! .... You got to expect the worst. You're not going to a hotel. If you did not expect this. If you didn't expect this your in some kind of DELUSION?
1:10:01 This really pulled on the heart strings. I'd love to have that cheery sweet man as my friend.
Yes they are snobs. Because they made something as response they took Wats theirs and left.
If this series needs a villain then I volunteer!
I would split the group immediately with 3 to 4 other men.
I would min/max the steps...the first 3 days is when you have useful calories, you are as useful in the first 3 days as in the next 11 days.
You need a BED off of the ground, 7 metres into the bush for no beach flies and no jungle crawlies.
You need the bed storm proof ASAP no sleep makes you cry-ie sad, and useless.
Finding MUD means that you can strain it through a t-shirt and make clay.
Mud Bricks and a chimney means that you can burn up to 1/3rd the amount of wood, ONE OF THE BIGGEST EXPENDITURES OF ENERGY.
LIVE BY THE WATER SUPPLY.
Fishing is pointless, NETS are where the calories are at. Though a fish caught now isn't swimming and begins to rot in the water, so nets must be checked every 4 hours and NOT LEFT OVERNIGHT.
Otherwise Crocodile, snake, starch plant and sugar cane hunts are how you search or are spread out to find the money.
Sugar cane in boiled water just needs a single berry, poisonous or otherwise so that the natural yeasts develop alcohol like a sour dough starter.
IF YOUR TEAM FINDS ANOTHER TEAM, EITHER TRADE SMOKED FISH WITH THEM OR STEAL ONE OF THEIR JERRY CANS AT 3AM!
Each man on MY TEAM should leave with 2 Crocodile skull shoulder-pads, a necklace of at least one snake skull and clothes made from a money parachute.
LIE ABOUT EVER FINDING MONEY.
Winning is Leaving with clay mugs filled with booze, a suit made of money parachute that you claimed that you never found, Crocodile skull shoulder pads with snake necklace...
£20K+ in each mans pocket and a SMUG GRIN.
I WOULD LOVE TO BE THE VILLAIN and most importantly..I'm curious just how useless I would be as a personal challenge.
The rich not wanting to share , and a doctor being so arrogant and un welcoming says alot about that team.
But on that island, no one was rich ? It was just about attitude and willingness to overcome and work to get things done. And (sadly?) it appeared to be true. Watched the whole show and i still don't quite understand how the different sides were feeding themselves.
2:41:40
"What's a wang"
"A peni"
"Oh-- 😳"
You watch the whole show and not once did they mention or show fishing or gathering fruits…. Nice. How exciting
They mentioned fishing multiple times and even caught a catfish 😅
Nobody on the island knew that They were in the presence of a Certified fourklift operator.😂😂😂😂 U gold Mercedes.
She says James killed the fire but isn’t she the one who was in charge of making the camp area for the fire?!
James skipping and singing, as well as recording a vlog adventure while on a trusted task did not help, but really it was tan and shireen’s fault the most. The flood was because tan shut down shireen’s worries of building shelter on sand(she was also angering the group then), shireen didn’t suggest moving out of the flooded area either.
Though in reality it was absolutely nobodies fault. The other watchers could have scoured for termite mounds as well, they didn’t have a proper shelter from rain too.
Snake guy 😂 cut it out
They have a fishing net and with the kills they had bait to lure fish in why didn't they try for more fish? It would work with minimum effort.
They were given fishing hooks too but preferred to sit on the beach and complain about hunger 😮
I actually would argued about the idea building the "Britania" raft and go voer to the small island. Because I don´t think it would be anything else like the more easy to explore bigger island.
But: it was a brave thing to do that. I also think Mercedes was especially brave to go on that tripp because of her condition. A explorers in history put their life on risk for the wealth of their countries.
Why can´t the poor group appreciate it? They might be annoyed by Mercedes lazy behaviour before, but despite that every group should care for their members.
I got a feeling that the rich group despite things go wrong, even when it is the fault of someone, pull themself together and push forward, while the poor group waste time and energy with the blame game.
Pretty sure shareen the only one who can survive
Shareen is absolutely a keeper what a beautiful, tough woman❤️❤️❤️
guy is there 1 min oh im struglling hahahahha ffs
I want to experience that kind of survival challenge someday. .
If you have to tell people that you're the alpha, you're not the alpha.
First off .. these people were acting far too posh for a 100k income. Second of all .. how are you rich as a fund raiser? Don't people wonder why the person raising funds from them is rich?
That wild pig was totally dropped off by the producers so they didn’t starve.
Like he says multiple times in every season. He ensures that the island has enough food for them to survive. Why would there be a few wild lager animals on the island? How are these multiplying? Obviously placed. And they are fairly honest about it.
Similar thing happened in s2 as well
When she says she hates coconuts, does she mean opening them? If not its says a lot!
i'm surprised people haven't lord of the flies each other
Ngl if I were Mercedes I would just go on a diet of water and salt.
When I look more at the end who edited this cut out to much we miss out what are you all doing 🤦🏼
Good times creates weak men weak men create hard times hard times creates strong men its a viscious cycle actually👍👍
I haven't seen Ben do anything lol
Honestly, why would you invite three people who are just on a weight loss holiday.. Bad choice.
I am not expert but i know that the first thing to get is fire, shelter for the fire if i know that i am in a weather like that
So the vegie .. got more food. Than the fuckn carnavores .. are u kiding me
One just needs a logical brain and how to get along and not be lazy. Most of the natives in my Town in Brazil could do that, They will have a waterproof shelter off ground real fast, dont fear hunting all of them fish. And we would be chilled out!
Exactly thats like a bear grls production directed
i hate how early the groups merge cos seriously why even start separated if this is the end result its a huge fail right from the start
James don't feel down it was their fault the fire went out not yours.
Brave social experiment
Bear Grizzley I challenge you for the UFC fighters in a group making it on an island trip.😊
How yall say it in the uk? "Wasteman"😂
mangrove!!!! not mango! 🤣
Really sad to see Ben go at the last moment.
I hated on barns the rich leader , but no matter how many times he failed , he got back up n kept trying until success
So hard to watch. The "poor" group is not acting like a team. They are lazy. Build a shelter soon, later you wont have enough strength. You have to work on your shelter daily, make it better and comfy. You have to try to find food, try fishing every day! This bodyshaming attitude is rude. They are enough people, why not let rest 2 a day. Collect enough wood, i personally would collect from farer away to near, because it is getting harder each day. Dig a ditch around your shelter, so its not flooded so easy. So many things you can do. Its pretty hard. Of course. But there are a lot little things you can do to make it a bit easier
1:49:28 I think she is beautiful. Like id I had to rank the entire lot on do-ability, probably a solid third place.
2:11:40 I would actually bump Mercedes up second place after seeing the rest of the swagger acting that way.
2:16:31 100% the most attractive person at this point.
2:40:14 The funny thing is that merging is 100% the correct answer. Like, if not the correct answer - but is opposite of what they are currently choosing, which is obviously not working. So even if nobody wants to team - arithmetically yields food.
**Like say the presence is leaving a footprint and the animals are aware of the humans habitat and naturally migrate away. When all people then in whole change location while actively hunting - would be where the animals are**
****2:52:18**** THIS IS CHEATING. He obviously received foods while attending medical camp. Which cheats them all out of 5 weeks. If you fast forward he even has high level of focus and decisive attributes - I feel robbed of my previous predictions if the game is caught at this point.
3:00:54 They should be passively setting traps and re casting the net before high tide.
aaaah no....a rerun of a re-run.....Bear must be broke
