S01E04 · Alaskan Mountain Range

Hawaii: Mount Kilauea
S01E05 · Hawaii: Mount Kilauea

Dec 01, 2006

Bear abseils from a helicopter onto Mount Kilauea, an active Hawaiian volcano, so he must tread with unusual caution, given the barren, brittle soil of molted lava, at places even breaking over hot magma, which makes his shoes catch fire, and use his t-shirt as 'gas mask' for sulfuric fumes. Descending into a crater is perilous, sharp-edged and yields very little. After descending the mountain slope, Bear heads into the pristine surrounding jungle. Grylls makes a traditional kukui nut torch to explore a lava tube and finds water, then uses smoke to placate a bee hive ...

Sierra Nevada
S01E06 · Sierra Nevada

Dec 08, 2006

Bear enjoys a risky parachute jump into California's largest, rough and varied mountain range, landing in a lake and hastily stripping to his boxers and improvising fire to avoid hypothermia as the nights are freezing. Using techniques of local Indian tribe, he climbs a tree for orientation, works his way down a peek and crosses changing terrain, through dizzying cliffs, satisfies his hungry self with the little food he can catch, like small snakes and a stick-stunned rabbit, always racing the clock for food and shelter by daylight. Having crossed the forest and nasty...

African Savannah
S01E07 · African Savannah

Dec 15, 2006

A parachute from hot air balloon brings team Bear to Masai country in northern Kenya, a savanna favorite with safari tourists.

European Alps
S01E08 · European Alps

Dec 22, 2006

Every year, 120 million people ski and climb the 80,000 square miles of the Alps, Europe's greatest mountain range. Unfortunately, every year hundreds of people die enjoying this beautiful wilderness because they're unable to survive the potentially fatal conditions at heights sometimes reaching 15,000 feet. Armed with a knife, a water bottle, a cup and a flint, Bear parachutes into the Alps to demonstrate vital survival skills. From a radical new technique to save lives in crevasse zones to building a snow shelter and showing viewers how to escape from a fall into a ...

Desert Island
S01E09 · Desert Island

Dec 29, 2006

Bear shows the challenges of stranding on an uninhabited minor Hawaiian island, as after shipwreck, albeit parachuted. He explores it for food, other resources, a suitable shelter, a signal fire, rain collection. Spear fishing and diving are very hard, the yield modest. So he builds a raft and sets out in high sea, despite the risks including thirst, hunger, sunburn -despite self-made skin protection- and a hungry tiger shark.

Everglades
S01E10 · Everglades

Jun 15, 2007

This premiere episode finds host Bear Grylls stranded in the swamps of the Florida Everglades, where each year at least 60 tourists need to be rescued. With more than a million alligators, thousands of snakes and even black bears roaming these waterlogged lands, the area has more than its share of hazards. Bear demonstrates how to keep alligators at bay, deal with vicious razor-sharp grass and find stomach-churning food that will keep you alive if you find yourself stranded in this beautiful but dangerous destination.

Iceland
S01E11 · Iceland

Jun 22, 2007

While hundreds of thousands of tourists visit Iceland every year to witness freezing glaciers, steaming geothermal areas and huge black sand deserts, more than a thousand visitors find themselves requiring a rescue. Adventurer Bear Grylls demonstrates how to make a snow cave, find water in deep tunnels and avoid frostbite in this Arctic environment. Because finding food is a problem in this climate, Bear is forced to eat a sheep's eyeball and catch a ptarmigan (a wild bird). He also has to deal with blizzards and 50 mph winds as he attempts to reach safety.

Mexico
S01E12 · Mexico

Jun 29, 2007

After sky-diving down, Bear crosses the vast, scorching-hot Mexican Copper canyon, south of the US border. Bear finds the dehydrating heat by day -and icy nights- his greatest challenge while climbing up and down high, steep, unpredictable cliffs. The arid land, surprisingly varied with volcanic hot springs, waterfalls and a glacier, offers little water and sustenance, so he must filter unpolluted pools or finds steaming water and eat what he can catch, like fat grubs and tail-removed scorpions. Exploring a cave with a self-made torch, Bear braves his animal phobia, ...

Kimberley, Australia
S01E13 · Kimberley, Australia

Jul 06, 2007

Even by Australian Outback standards, Kimberley is a vast and desolate wasteland, home to an inhospitable wildlife with a record concentration of poisonous species. Bear braves it, paying due tribute to traditional Aboriginal survival skills, showing how stranded tourists may still hope to get out alive. Even he wrestles with the scorching heat, leaving most of the and dry and very hard to find water or food, so you can't be picky, eating anything not dangerous and drinking what you can, even recycling your own filtered fresh urine. After a storm in a hastily ...

Ecuador
S01E14 · Ecuador

Jul 13, 2007

Bear starts a testing journey trough tropical Ecuador paragliding down in the Andes, then works his way down into the Amazon jungle, trying to follow the course of water gradually swelling into a mighty stream, passing a cave requires getting over his aversion from bats. Wildlife is abundant, yet food not so easy to get, even if you know some local tribal techniques. He eats both a crucifix spider and giant larvae for the protein, making him all the more happy when a self-made bow and arrow allow him to fish-hunt in pools, for piranhas who aren't numerous enough to be...

Scotland
S01E15 · Scotland

Jul 20, 2007

Bear is dropped in the Scottish Highlands, the wildest UK region, notably Cairngorm National Park, every year still quite risky for its many tourists. The unforgiving winter elements scourge Bear with icy wind, cold and precipitation, so he must regularly seek shelter in between threading carefully on snow, ice, slippery moss and sliding pebbles or dealing with snowy slopes with avalanche risk, a rotting deer carcass is inedible but can be skinned for a coat, alas too heavy to carry long. Food and potable water are scares, so he purifies with moss and sets rabbit ...
