I just saw this show for the first time this past weekend. I thought it was pretty cool. How many of you would participate in the show and if so, what item would you take with you? I would take a knife.

    Hell no. I get afraid looking at myself naked in my own bathroom, I sure as hell am not running around in the woods to solidify my fear.

    I think it would be a blast. Knife is the no brainer but Non-stop has a point, the worst part would be the mosquito's.

    I'd do it. I'd bring a pair of underwear.

    I think it'd be fun to do this, I would take a good, trusty, knife as well.

    I love this show. My survival skills are nonexistent so I don't think I'd be able to do it.

    The skeeters and other insects are the only drawbacks. Animals and snakes wouldn't bother me as much as the pesky bugs.

    I watched this show for the first time this past weekend and was completely fascinated. I have no useful jungle survival skills...but if you dropped me naked in the middle of Bloomingdales, I am sure I would be fine (can my one item be a credit card?)

    I would do it. I would take a pot. The worse part to me is the lazy partners. I get frustrated at the episodes where one partner is doing everything and the other is just sitting there waiting. Waiting for food, waiting for shelter, waiting for the fire to magically appear and firewood to magically stack.

    I have to agree, the whiners and the lazy are truly annoying!

    It makes it worse when they sit there at the beginning talking like they do this all the time, and they take survival trips every weekend, and they are so in their element. Then on day 3, they are ready to tap out because "im dying, I can't do this anymore."

    I freakin love this show...but I don't even camp so I would die on like the first day. How come no one ever actually fishes for fish on there? They always make some lame fish basket that never works but no one ever fishes with a makeshift rod and hook. Maybe I'd ask for a roll of flexible metal wire. Then I could fashion all sorts of stuff.

    I would for sure, I would bring a citrus soap bar. It would help with the smell and maybe the mosquito's.

    I love that show. I don't know if I'd do it. The naked part is the worst. ugh. The mosquitos point = torture. Fire and mud would be needed to TRY to ward off the mosquitos.
    I would bring this Survival-II-Knife-with-Blade-Sharpener-Fire-Starter-and-Sheath-38bd476d-d2e9-49f5-8287-d8621ddd6d8c.jpg (knife + fire starter combo) and hoped my partner brought a pot.

    80% of the human population does this their entire lives?

    I would do it. No, I do not have a perfect body but I don't really care. I would take water. I can always make a weapon out of a blunt object and create a fire using sticks and friction.

    Well, 80% of the world's population lives in poverty. A large percentage of that live off of the land and have to make do with what nature offers. My apologies for not fine-tuning that made up quote.

    It would be my luck I'd get paired up with someone who was dumb as a box of a hammers like the chick who says it gets to 110 every summer in Kentucky. Or the guy who has a withdrawal to cigarettes.
