Roughly 20 miles off the coast of West Africa, the island of Bioko sits alone in the Atlantic Ocean. This rainforest-dominated terrain is home to one of the rarest primates in the world: the drill.

Thank God for drones is probably the biggest oxymoron I've ever heard. You do realize how drones were originally created? Youre thankful the military was spying on other countries and bombing them from the comfort of their offices? This is hilarious.

3:00 Now that's how you check fruit. Step 1: Make sure the surroundings are clear. Step 2: Extend your pinky (a Posh Brit explorer has been there before, obviously) and pick the fruit gently. Step 3: Give it a good sniff. Step 4: Take a small bite. Step 5: Spit it out. Step 6: Repeat. Try that at your local market. You'll never go wrong!
