Additional Information:

Get the full first Season of the award winning Survivorman Series. No food, no shelter, no fresh
water, no tools... no camera crew. One man - alone in the wild for seven days with only his wits
and stamina to sustain him. Each episode finds "Survivorman" Les Stroud abandoned in a remote
location. He carries little more than the clothes on his back and his cameras. Les not only needs
to survive for a week without supplies, but he has to film everything himself, lugging over fifty
pounds of camera gear the entire time. The Costa Rican rainforest, Arctic ice-flows, Georgian
swamp and the high Sonora desert include a few locales where Les has overcome seemingly
impossible obstacles. 7 Episodes: Canadian Boreal Forest, Arizona Desert, Costa Rican Jungle,
Georgian Swamps, Lost At Sea, Arctic, Rocky Mountains, Utah Canyonlands, Planecrash
Bonus: This DVD also includes an exclusive "Behind the Scenes" segment.

Episode Information

Episode 1: Canadian Boreal Forest

The Boreal Forest of Northern Canada is a vast tract of wilderness stretching from the Atlantic
Ocean to the Pacific. It is home to moose and beaver, crisscrossed by rivers and lakes and
frost-free for only about three months of the year. Stroud intentionally tips his canoe in mid-stream
and crawls from the icy waters onto shore where he does a quick inventory of his supplies. A handful
of cashews and beef jerky, a solitary match, a multi-tool and 50 lbs of camera equipment to document
the next seven days in the bush.

Episode 2: Arizona Desert

The Sonora Desert in the south-western United States covers an area of approximately 120,000 square
miles. It is an arid, seemingly barren environment with scorching daytime highs and freezing overnight
lows. Riding a dirt bike out into the official middle of nowhere, Les simulates a break-down scenario. He
empties out the contents of his pack - half a gallon of water, a snack bar and his multi-tool-7 more days!

Episode 3: Costa Rica

A Costa Rican getaway - as far removed from everyday living as you can imagine: lush rainforests and
deserted tropical beaches. Marooned on Costa Rica's Osa Peninsula, Les "Survivorman" Stroud has only
a few items to aid him for the next 7 days: swimming goggles, 3 ballpoint pens, a multi-tool and the
clothing on his back. On top of keeping hydrated in the intense humidity and relentless heat, Stroud must
cope with deadly snakes, enormous spiders, land-crabs and scorpions.

Episode 4: Georgian Swamps

The swamplands of Georgia's Altamaha River Basin are all that one would expect of a Primordial bog:
dank, menacing, swimming with slithering creepy-crawlies and, of course, alligator-infested. This is the
welcoming environment Stroud will be immersed in for seven sweaty days and bone-chilling nights.

Episode 5: Canadian Arctic

Pond Inlet, on the Northern reaches of Baffin Island, provides one of the most challenging landscapes
our planet has to offer. Over 700km north of the Arctic Circle, it sits amidst grinding, ever-shifting flows
of sea-ice where polar-bears roam in search of meat. In this severe climate Stroud has been equipped
with a bare minimum of raw materials to aid him for the next 7 days - a hunk of uncooked seal-liver,
some oil-rich blubber for heat, a seal-hook, three matches, and a knife.

Episode 6: Rocky Mountains

This episode sees Stroud airdropped onto a snow-covered peak in the Canadian Rockies courtesy of the
Canadian Mountain Air Rescue Service. They'll come looking for him in seven days. Until then Stroud is
entirely on his own, save for the grizzlies, cougars and wolves that also call this place home. To emulate
a real-life survival scenario - in this case a heli-hiking expedition comes to grief - Stroud has been provided
with a few readily salvageable items, among them a broken camcorder and tripod. One man's trash is
another man's treasure!

Episode 7: Utah Canyonlands

The spectacular red landscapes of Utah's canyonlands are as beautiful as they are inhospitable. Like outlaws
of old who were known to eat their own horses out of desperation in this forlorn place, Stroud will cannibalize
the mountain-bike he has ridden into the middle of nowhere. As well as these scavenged bike parts to aid him,
he also has a multi-tool, a magnesium flint-stick and an old energy-bar - that he has a use for other than eating.

Episode 8: Plane Crash

In the remote winter-bound forests of Northern Ontario, a crashed plane lies in the snow beside a frozen lake.
There is no one alive on board. But this plane didn't crash here - the decrepit old wreck has been airdropped
from a helicopter to provide a temporary home for Survivorman. For a week Stroud will have to survive in this
harsh snowy wilderness with only an axe, a multi-tool and a single blanket to aid him.

Episode 9: Lost at Sea

Living "off the land" takes on a new meaning as Stroud casts off for a week at sea. With no food and only a bare
minimum of equipment, Stroud will be set adrift in an inflatable life raft off the coast of Belize. Battling hunger,
thirst and the Caribbean heat, he must also keep his cameras dry to film the ordeal. To top it off - the life raft has
a few bad leaks and needs constant bailing. It also leaks air and requires frequent re-inflation with a hand pump -
Survivorman is in for a busy few days!

Episode 10: Behind the Scenes

"Behind the Scenes" is an intimate one-hour look at the making of the Survivorman series. We go behind the scenes
of this popular show to take a look at clips and outtakes over the nine episodes.

I think it is what you are talking about Trooper. The picture of itis on the back of the DVD box.

Ok i think I figured it out, the picture with the leaf is only a picture; it wasnt actually recorded that way.

I think, this is my assumption Smile

Prepared properly and fresh, you dont get the seaweed taste and the meat is good. It is best when the rice is still warm, fresh out of the cooker in my opinion
