Anyone watch "Naked Castaway" ?

Military guy from Britain who traversed the length of the Amazon by himself is set on an island off the coast of Australia. No food, no clothes, no tools. It amazes me that a human can exist on sea snails, coconut, taro root and the occasional gecko or crab for 30 days. I'd have drowned myself after a week.

There are "feral goats" so maybe there's hope of more protein in future episodes.

I saw the first episode tonight and it was decently entertaining (plus he has a cute ass which apparently they can show these days)

I'm a big fan of "Survivor's" competitiveness aspect, but I think the cast is too pampered with awards. I'd like to see how a real survivor adapts without any resources.

There's a trailer at the Discovery Channel site with this warning: If you are easily offended by the sight of naked buttocks, please avert your eyes.

Here's the link: http://dsc.discovery.com/tv-shows/naked-castaway/videos/naked-stranded-alone.htm

and I'm not buying the fact that the big goat "got tangled"...

He should have gone inland right away.. that's where he would have surely found fruit to eat.. and abundant water.
