Somebody told me that they didn't drink or eat for 3 days, and I dismissed it as BS coming from him.
Dan193 · 31-35, M
or 6 days, I don't remember.

@Dan193 You can go three weeks without food as long as you consume water.

@JimboUk if you watch those naked and afraid shows, they show them going 3-4 weeks without/little food...
JimboUk · 31-35, M
@Deadcutie Naked and afraid shows, you lost me.
Deadcutie · 18-21, F
@JimboUk there is a show on discovery channel called naked and afraid.. they send a man and woman literally naked out in the middle of nowhere with only one survival item of their choice. And they gotta survive for a month or so
JimboUk · 31-35, M
@Deadcutie Sounds like fun. My one item would be Ray Mears.
Dan193 · 31-35, M
@Deadcutie For real? They were saying the Bear Grills show was fake, and he had survival skills coupled with all sorts of stuff in his backpack, like rope, knife, flint and other surprises.
Deadcutie · 18-21, F
@JimboUk don’t know what that is
JimboUk · 31-35, M
@Dan193 Where did you hear that?
Dan193 · 31-35, M
@JimboUk Word of mouth.
Deadcutie · 18-21, F
@Dan193 bear grills isn’t fake per say, but is most likely scripted.. for instance he will set up survival situations and demonstrate how to get out of them, his controversy came when someone on the crew suggested that bear grills sometimes goes to a hotel after shooting as if he’s out sleeping in the wild.. also, it’s hard to recreate the destitute of loneliness when you have a camera crew with you to keep you company...
In naked and afraid, the two people are alone, they do all the camera work. However a medical team is nearby by helicopter if one taps out

@Deadcutie So if they survive one month they win some prize money, or how does it work? Also did it ever happen for the contestants to have sex?
Deadcutie · 18-21, F
@Dan193 no, I don’t think they win prizes.
In several episodes relationships happen, but it’s not shown, they just talk about it.. in most episodes, by the 2-3 week they hate eachother and are usually fighting..
Dan193 · 31-35, M
@Deadcutie Would you ever go on a show like that?
Deadcutie · 18-21, F
@Dan193 no
Dan193 · 31-35, M
@Deadcutie What about from all the reality TV shows out there. Which one would u consider going on, if you were casted, by one of those agents that walk around and look for contestants for their shows?
Deadcutie · 18-21, F
@Dan193 I’d do survivor or the amazing race
Dan193 · 31-35, M
@Deadcutie You watch survivor?
Deadcutie · 18-21, F
@Dan193 religiously since I was about 5-6
Dan193 · 31-35, M
@Deadcutie I found about it when I was in high school, and the same, watched it every season, some multiple times. Which are your fav seasons and survivors? or winners?
JimboUk · 31-35, M
@Deadcutie
@Dan193 😄Three weeks fighting for survival stuck with the same person you just met, I can imagine that turning sour.
The truth is most reailty shows are scripted. I haven't watched it in some time so didn't hear about the hotel controversy. I cant blame him to be honest lol
JimboUk · 31-35, M
@Deadcutie Amazing race, is that the one where their chased by wolves?
