You guys are right. If you drink alot, then sweat a whole bunch, you don't pee much. I speak from experience.
The other day, I hauled hay with my dad, and I drank over a gallon of liquids in one afternoon. I only peed twice between lunch and bedtime. I sweated it all out.

Kalahari was awesome!!! I liked the new opening pictures with the same intro and the new music was great too! I can't find the Amazon jungle episode on you tube though

No, that didn't happen. You read it wrong.
I had no desire to go for one more day and have the safety crew come and pick me up passed out from dehydration.
He didn't want that to happen. That's why he walked back.

I guess your right, makes sense.
Plus i think they would have mentioned if he passed out in the show.

Yeah, it was kind of hard to watch when he was overheated. I've been like that before when you can't cool down. Scary stuff.
Thankfully, he lived to survive another day.

Yeah, we are lucky Les got out of that one ok, I cant help but worry when he does these episodes. The danger level is so much higher than people realize.

I just watched it again too. I don't have that much determination. Personally my throat would be killing me from lack of water.

Yeah, I don't know how my body could handle the abuse he puts his through. The lack of water, food......and those cameras are enough by themselves to make a preacher cuss.
