Wow, Are you serious? Is what I want to ask the producers of NBC's "KMART" version of Survivor, called the Island!!! I say it's the KMART version because, the producers have provided the cast of 12 men, 3 knives, 3 machetes, and just 2 containers of potable water. The cast must forage on the Island for everything else. So no rice or beans and no "water hole" to get water. Whoever scouted this island in the pacific some where, did a really piss pour job of it. While walking from one beach to another, the men find what they think is fresh water, but because they are all too scared to taste the water and make sure it is fresh, they waste valuable time and resources trying to purify this water which later turns out to be sea water. They strain this puddle of water through a T-shirt and then boil it and then foolishly pour it into a container which has some fresh water in it. Mixing sea water with their fresh water. And while this is happening, another part of their group is just drinking the other container of water like no tomorrow almost drink the entire container. So, when the group that has the sea water finally meets up with the 2nd group and gives them the bad news about the water, there is very little water left in the 2nd container. Dayum!!! Then one of the men in group #2 wants to prove that he is a "MAN" and so he goes all day long without drinking any water and gets heatstroke and must be rescued by boat. And that was definitely a medical emergency!!! The temps on this island range from low 80s all the way up to over 102 degrees during the midmorning temps. You need to drink water or some kind of fluid when it is that hot because the human body is losing moisture through sweat and urination during those high heats. They have tons of coconuts, so they could drink the coconut water in the coconuts, but it might give them diarrhea. But it's better than nothing, so far no one has suggested that.
This group is full of guys from all walks of life, one is a trauma surgeon, another one is an engineer, 1 is the ex chief of police, another one is a bird farmer, a couple of them are ex military, and finally another one is an attorney and trust fund baby. I was really surprised that the group of guys were so inept at making fire, no one brought flint or a lighter or matches, I don't know maybe those items are banned? I don't see why they would be, but maybe they are. What kills me the most is how no one practices making fire b4 they get to the island? That is just so stupid!!! Don't they know, that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure?
So on episode 1, for food, they find a giant python and they hack it to death and then skin it and cook it after, the black guy makes fire using his eye glasses. And they cook it and eat it. In a future episode, they catch a pig and kill it. And there is plenty of coconuts to eat on this island, but I am not sure if there are any other fruits on this island. I didn't see any fruit trees. There should be lots of crab and of course if they can make a net or a diving spear, there is plenty of fish in the ocean. hahahaha
In my opinion, this show has the greatest potential for allowing someone to die on it. Oh, the other thing is, these guys are filming themselves. There are no other camera crews with them. That's right, that was the profession of 4 of the cast members, they are professional cameramen.
I'm gonna say it again, only white people (yeah, I said it!!!) need to challenge themselves to the point of risking their lives. This is not the correct island for this type of reality show. Water should be difficult but not impossible to find. Also, had the show been taped during the "rainy" season, then they would have ample fresh water, since this island doesn't have any. Mark my words, if these guys do not find a water source on episode 2, then they will start dropping like flies with heat stroke and they will have to radio again and again for help!!! Or someone will die. Which is a real possibility with this group, they are not organized and there are too many worker bees amongst them and so far no one has stepped up and tried to be a leader. They need to make a shelter not sleep directly on the sand. Bugs can climb in their ears when they sleep directly on the sand. They need to be wary of spiders and centipedes.
I predict one season of this show, 2 tops b4 someone dies. This show is a HOT ASS MESS!!! There is no tribal council because people are going to get kicked off the show for medical emergencies! No voting. hahahaha
