One dude who slept on the ground in the Amazon said he woke up and the whole ground was moving. He noticed 3 meters all around him there was nothing but ants. You might had thought that special effect in Indian Jones and the Crystal Skull where that guy is eaten alive by swarms of ants is just made up, actually... its not that far from reality.

from wikipedia: According to Charles Darwin, the indigenous peoples of South America stated that people did not need to fear the jaguar as long as capybaras were abundant.[96] The first official record of a jaguar killing a human in Brazil dates to June 2008.[97] Two children were attacked by jaguars in Guyana.[98] The jaguar is the least likely of all big cats to kill and eat humans, and the majority of attacks come when it has been cornered or wounded

I've watched a lot of survival stories of people trapped in the Amazon. In nearly every vid someone ends up running into either a venomous snake, wild boar, or wild cat within the span of a few days to 1 week. Few have survived longer. I used to think yeah there are wild animals out there but the chance of running into a jaguar isn't that likely. Hell with that! That place is crawling with vicious animals. I see why the natives built a massive fence around their town. Les was right to get the heck out of dodge. He wasn't even there but a few days and he's already being stalked by jaguar.

it was always the point, if you watch his directors commentary videos, he explains that the producers from the network arealways so finicky and nitpicky. he often found it hard for him to pursue his original ideas without people attempting to control and warp the final product. For example, in season 3 he hated the whole idea of "setting the stakes." He hated doing some scripted setup for the journey, "Im here for eight days, i have to make it to that plateau, no crew, no contact, yada yada yada." He said he would rather just get into it and explain more of the landscape and its natural beauty, and let the drama unfold itself, instead of trying to set up added suspense. The network producers did not agree however.

I wore those same boots for 30 days on NOLS. Our instructors didn't want us to change into water shoes when we forded rivers (which were almost a daily occurence) so I spent the month with wet feet walking inside those boots. I can only imagine how much worse the fungi are in the hot amazon when it was bad at 10,000 feet!

The fact Les remained calm, never panicked and got right into the hut shows his mental toughness. If he were to freak out. He could have startled the Jaguar to attack.

The thing that gets me about the flight from the Jaguar isn’t the big hungry cat behind you. That thing is walking, crawling, practically stuck in traffic following you to the village. It could’ve pounced the second it wanted to. The thing that really gets me is that Les was walking essentially blind through the Amazon hoping he doesn’t take a wrong turn. Depending on distance, minutes or seconds of a degree couldn’t had him miss the village by a couple hundred yards left or right. He’d be plowing straight ahead into the night and ensuing nightmare when a big cat stuck in traffic decides his Canadian ‘fast’ food delivered itself to a nice picnic area.
