I have to say that this episode was my least favorite of the I Shouldn't Be Alive series. Personally I found the kids to be rather unsympathetic because they were so stupid to begin with. I mean, after six hours of walking south of their target camp wouldn't most normal people turn around head back the way they came? I would. And the guy especially creeped me out; he just looks creepy. I wouldn't trust him to walk my dog let alone follow him into the Amazon forest. And the girl was so whiny, useless, and weak. Her hysterics made the situation worse for both of them. They got out of the Amazon by sheer luck alone, not because they "survived" anything. They didn't even bother to make some kind of shelter for nighttime or build a campfire. Duh.

Thumbs down on those two. Hopefully future episodes will have braver people to showcase.
