00:0013 or 14 days since I've eaten. That's ridiculous.
00:21Protein, a little bit of fat.
00:23This is the weakest I've felt.
00:25Like I've actually got aches in my stomach right now. I could vomit.
00:29I don't know how much longer I've got.
00:32He ate the jerky!
00:35Get!
00:36Now that Paul knows, that's where my foot is.
00:39See what I have to deal with. Nothing is safe.
00:42Yes! Oh yes!
00:44Things are looking up, man. They really are.
00:47We can celebrate and have a little feast.
00:50It's the beginnings of acute gout on my left ankle.
00:53I'll tell you what, it's scary.
00:55Like it's that bad. It's just, it's just bloody horrible.
00:59I'm not ready to go home. Not now. Not here.
01:04I'm not ready to go home. Not tomorrow. Not tomorrow. Not tomorrow. Not tomorrow. Not tomorrow. How can you do, you have to go home?
01:08I don't know.
01:38It feels like I've broken the ankle.
01:58That's gout.
01:59Ow, ow, ow.
02:01It's a build-up of uric acid, which is like smashed-up glass, basically.
02:06It's just bloody horrible.
02:11I'd rather a broken ankle than gout.
02:21One thing I never thought about was getting bloody dragged because of gout.
02:25I just hope it goes away.
02:29Want to stay out of here?
02:33No.
02:35I haven't met you.
02:38Please, no.
02:44I'm not ready to go home.
02:48Not now.
02:50Not here.
02:58Doctor, how are you going?
02:59How are you doing?
03:00Any acute problems?
03:02Anything?
03:03Um, yeah, look, the issue I had was a bout of gout.
03:10Okay.
03:11And, jeez, it came on like a tonne of bricks.
03:14Left ankle.
03:15Left ankle.
03:16Right.
03:17Okay.
03:18No fevers or feeling upset sort of in yourself?
03:23No.
03:24No.
03:25No.
03:26No.
03:27No.
03:28No.
03:29No.
03:30No.
03:31No.
03:32No.
03:33No.
03:34No.
03:35No.
03:36No.
03:37No.
03:38No.
03:39How about down the...
03:40Oh, yep.
03:41Yeah.
03:42All right.
03:43Thank you very much.
03:44I'm just going to go and have a word.
03:49Fearful.
03:50After all, it's hard work, you know?
03:51A bit of the end.
03:56Fearful.
04:16So, there are other things that look like gout, which we also worry about.
04:36So in this particular instance, we'd worry about septic arthritis.
04:39The things that you really need to watch out for in that situation is if you're vomiting,
04:46if you're feeling lethargic and tired and hot, that is more likely to represent a septic
04:53arthritis.
04:54Yep.
04:55But the moment, that's looking like gout.
04:57Yep.
04:58So, we can say you're safe to stay on.
05:00Yep.
05:01But we're concerned, and you should be concerned.
05:06Right.
05:07If this flares up big and red, if you cannot move, if you start getting the vomiting,
05:12you need to let us know.
05:13Right.
05:14Yep.
05:15Absolutely.
05:16Yep.
05:17No worries.
05:19Oh.
05:20Fuck.
05:21What a relief.
05:22What a fucking relief.
05:27Just in case there isn't God, thank you.
05:33All right.
05:37Let's get to it.
05:38Let's get to it.
05:40Let's get to it.
05:41Oh, Sophia.
05:51We'll see you then.
05:53Look.
05:54Yeah.
05:54Come on.
05:55We give him more results.
05:56This is time after suffering, pain just, let's get to it.
05:57Come on, listen to him.
05:57The mare is just within 2⁄4 Appleship.
05:58Oh my God!
05:59We've given it!
06:01You come on, say you step in the same way!
06:03He's lost on me!
06:03Oh, fuck off, Quentin!
06:26Get out.
06:28Get!
06:30We walked straight in here, went on the bed.
06:33Off he goes, a little dickhead.
06:41Yeah, you better run.
06:47Sniffing where I dug, that's where I poop as well.
06:53Came straight in, walked straight in, didn't even say hello.
06:59Went to the bed and it was slippery.
07:02So he was like, you know, like, skitzing, like...
07:14What are you doing?
07:23Quentin's actually keeping me company.
07:24He's, he's a source of entertainment and excitement.
07:30I don't know.
07:32Maybe I just accept him and he becomes a friend,
07:37instead of chasing him off all the time.
07:39It's been 40 days.
07:44I actually feel good and I look healthy and I feel healthy.
07:51I feel like this is one of my favourite parts of the day.
08:00Oh, the sunsets from here are spectacular.
08:04I feel like this may be the last big solo adventure I have for quite some time.
08:17I've been gearing up for a while towards the next chapter of my life.
08:26Moving away from a carefree, traveller, vagabond life.
08:30And I think the next chapter of my life is a family.
08:44Prior to coming here, I had to walk away from
08:48a relationship that wasn't heading in the direction I was going.
08:56He never wanted to have children.
08:59And I decided I do.
09:02So we parted ways, but he's still a dear friend of mine.
09:08I want to have children and that's a priority.
09:23To build a life, to raise a family.
09:26Yeah.
09:28My child is going to grow up barefoot and muddy, playing in the dirt, fishing,
09:35you know, foraging.
09:42I'm 39.
09:45I think I'd like to have two.
09:49I better get cracking.
09:51I'm ready now, but it has to be now.
09:56So the biological clock is a bitch.
10:00And it's ticking very loudly.
10:05I think you've got to find you.
10:07I don't.
10:08I don't know.
10:09But we are better at all.
10:10So, no luck fishing this morning.
10:40Ah, it's a little bit disappointing, but I can't catch something every day, I guess.
10:48Well, it'd be nice, but, yeah.
10:55I haven't had a bowel movement in a couple of weeks, which is...
11:02I mean, I've never had an issue of constipation.
11:05Hopefully there's nothing wrong with my bowels, you know.
11:09Because imagine that, getting pulled out.
11:12I don't want to be that guy, you know.
11:18You know, I don't want to get pulled out because I can't take a shit.
11:24You know, that would really suck.
11:27Yeah, that would suck.
11:32We're back to living paycheck to paycheck as far as food goes.
11:43So, I'm hoping we can catch another trout tomorrow if we can.
11:49But, if we don't, you know what we'll be doing.
11:53We'll be back to bugs.
11:58Of course, first things first.
12:00We've got to go check that wallaby trap, as we do every day.
12:05We've done it for three weeks now, with no success.
12:10One of these days, I'm going to be a bit of the time.
12:15Not today, but maybe tomorrow.
12:17Keep the faith, you know.
12:19Nothing.
12:20She's still set and primed.
12:23It's my daily disappointment.
12:26Nothing in the traps.
12:29Not today, team.
12:31You just never know, man.
12:34three weeks now with no success. One of these days we're gonna get a bloody
12:42patty melon. Bloody hell, so close, we're getting so close, nothing in it, nothing in it.
12:51It's disappointing you know. I'm trying to come to the realisation that trapping
12:56is probably not the best use of my time here.
13:04So the trap has not been touched. Well, it hasn't been set off. Oh Jesus, bloody hell.
13:29There's a patty melon in our trap. Well, he's licking the salt. I think. Yeah. I can't believe we didn't catch it.
13:45It's fully inside of our trap right now. If only it had landed on the plate, I would have set the trap off.
13:55Jesus, man. Bloody hell, we were close then. Shit.
14:06What can we do to make that better?
14:08Man, that is such a tease. To see it in there, like it was in there. It was just there.
14:27It's another way we could do it. We could have a wire going from the base of the trigger plate down and up.
14:34I don't want to set it off because it's really heavy to put that bloody door back up.
14:40And the energy is, you know, she's pretty low. I just want to feel it.
14:47Oh, lovely. All right. Now I've got to reset it. Just everything's harder, you know. Everything takes longer.
15:06Oh, my goodness. I'm poked. I'm tired. I tell you. I just want to come up.
15:19That's what my body's telling me to do. Just go to sleep.
15:25It's quite amazing how tired your legs get.
15:30Just leave them there a little so that it does fall.
15:36I don't have to lift it up again.
15:39They just feel fatigued, you know.
15:46Fuck.
15:52Fire out.
15:54I think I'm fine.
15:59Must've done it again.
16:00I do not think I know that we will get into aiety and come out until we do the peace.
16:03I do not think we will.
16:04Yes.
16:09You are washing their righty.
16:13Just walking away, yes!
16:14I think, yes.
16:16No, you're going to
16:19The fggt-
16:21It's a bit of a cold night, and I'm not too far off getting ready to go to bed, but I
16:42thought I'd go out for a quick fish and see if I can locate some eels.
16:48I've got the hand line, I've got a couple of worms.
16:51I don't want to go too hard, I just want to go out and have a quick look.
16:58I haven't eaten in days.
17:07I am so hungry, all the time.
17:10I think about food, I dream about food, talk about food.
17:18I want a trout, I want a basin thrush, I want a paddy melon.
17:22It's starting to affect my mental state and my staying ability here.
17:29The creek's a lot higher tonight.
17:35I don't want it to be tough right now, but it is.
17:39I just keep thinking about food and then my family.
17:44I keep trying to keep a positive attitude, but this stuff, this stuff's rough.
17:52It's some sort of stonefly.
17:53It would make really good bait.
17:59It's some sort of stonefly, I have to ask my mate who's an expert.
18:06Andy, can you tell me, is that a stonefly?
18:10Pretty sure of us.
18:13What's that?
18:16Oh, fuck.
18:17It's very energy.
18:21Something's gone on.
18:26I just love the noises of the night.
18:36That's fine.
18:55What's going on here?
19:01Oh.
19:04Yeah, I know.
19:07Yeah, I know.
19:28Oh, oh.
19:31Oh, oh.
19:33I just.
19:34Oh, oh.
19:41Oh, oh.
19:42Oh, oh.
19:45I just can't do this.
19:48Look at us.
20:12This shoot is annoying.
20:14Fuck that.
20:18Ah, he was stuck on their foot.
20:30Up there, you guys.
20:33Quickly, quickly.
20:35Slow and fast.
20:38You cheeky fella.
20:42Oh, I got out.
20:48Oh, no.
20:50I can't believe it.
20:52Oh, I shouldn't have scrubbed it.
20:56Oh, damn you.
20:58I can always cry.
21:01I had food.
21:04Now it's gone.
21:06I'll tell you what, this morning, I feel good.
21:18With my gout, I can walk without limping, but I can still feel it.
21:36The swelling's gone down pretty much.
21:39I can walk on it fine.
21:40It's not throbbing.
21:51Morning, smoker.
21:53How are you here today?
21:55You're good.
21:56You're going all right, too.
21:58So, the ankle's almost perfect.
22:02I just hope my body's beating it.
22:07So, that's not as big a concern at the moment.
22:12I think my biggest worry is the lake flooding.
22:19Poor rain, like heavy rain, for more than half the night.
22:24And the lake has come up a huge amount this morning.
22:28I reckon she's come up 250 to 300 mil overnight.
22:34Which is, as you can see, just behind me here.
22:37It's brought it almost up to the base of the tree.
22:41We're losing real estate here at a rapid rate.
22:46If I walk over here, you'll get a bit of an idea of how...
22:52I'm walking in water where there was no water yesterday.
22:55It's nearly halfway up my Gumby's.
23:00This is where I used to have lunch.
23:14Yeah, a couple of concerns.
23:17I reckon this is going to keep rising flat out today
23:20because of all the rain, so...
23:22If the lake keeps rising and there's, you know, 90% chance it will,
23:28well, then it would mean I'd have to move camp,
23:32it would mean I'd have to shift where I'm going to fish.
23:37So, I think the next thing is to go and have a look
23:39to see if I can still get around this swamp end.
23:42I want to get up the back here and have a look for a new campsite.
23:55Jeez, I'm lacking some energy.
23:58Whew.
24:00Busy spell.
24:02I am famished.
24:04Even though I'm eating every day, man, I'm fucking starving.
24:08The possession of your mind with food is just bloody cruel.
24:13I know I'm losing weight now.
24:16I can feel it all over.
24:18The lack of energy.
24:19I'm not in perfect shape, but I'm pretty bloody good for 60...
24:26What? 63.
24:31You know, I've got very few major ailments.
24:33I've got arthritis.
24:36What else?
24:37I get a bit of a twinge in the knee.
24:39I've got a joint in my back that gives me a little bit of trouble.
24:41But, you know, I can hike 700 bloody kilometres.
24:45Can't be too bad, eh?
24:46And that was just last year.
24:51I couldn't do it right now, I tell you.
24:53Jeez.
24:58Fuck it.
25:00I was hoping to be able to camp just here.
25:02That's a definite no-no.
25:04You know...
25:09If I have to move up here because the lake's full,
25:13my concerning thought is that it's a big cowrie burn.
25:18For me, it's gonna be a huge physical challenge.
25:29So...
25:31Like Phil's mother's fucked.
25:35Yeah.
26:00Okay.
26:02Let's go.
26:04Today, I have to do a big forage.
26:09So...
26:10My survival strategy...
26:13When I signed up for this challenge...
26:18I knew my strengths were in foraging.
26:26Mmm.
26:27It's sweet.
26:29Hmm.
26:31I've been spending the past 10 years here in Tasmania,
26:35learning about edible bush food.
26:38And that's an advantage for me.
26:47How are we?
26:49Native plum.
26:50These are edible, but have a laxative effect, so you don't want to eat too many of them.
27:06Sweet and slightly bitter.
27:09No, proper bitter.
27:11But there's definite plum flavour, sweet flavour coming through.
27:19It's a nice, nice treat.
27:22It's got a big hard seed in the middle.
27:25When I was a child, foraging was just part of life.
27:29You know what?
27:31I'm going to leave my jacket here.
27:33It's way too warm.
27:35My mother is from the Philippines.
27:37She's encouraged me to live off the land.
27:41Just going out your back door and seeing what the forest has to offer you.
27:46That's what I'm looking for.
27:57Fern fiddleheads.
27:59Those beauts.
28:01Look at that.
28:03How good is that?
28:05Oh my God, there's more.
28:07It's a nice big one.
28:12I reckon this is, I reckon this is plenty.
28:18Kangaroo fern.
28:22I'm loving this.
28:26So, that's a nice forage.
28:32And that should actually last us the week.
28:40I feel like I'm in a good place, strategically, with food.
28:45I think if I didn't catch that wallaby right now,
28:50would be a very different experience.
28:52Oh, beautiful.
28:55Fern fiddleheads.
28:57My favourite.
29:00So, in the soup, we've got man fern heart.
29:05We've got the bat wing fern.
29:08The kangaroo vine tips.
29:10The old man's beard.
29:12The man fern fiddleheads.
29:14Plus the jerky.
29:16Pepper berry.
29:18I reckon three leaves are good.
29:20I've just got to cut it up real fine.
29:23As soon as the fiddleheads are done,
29:27I'm eating this.
29:34Right now, I feel so healthy.
29:37I feel fresh.
29:38I feel energetic.
29:44Really, physically, the only thing that's worrying me
29:46is that my period hasn't arrived.
29:50It's uncommon for me, for my body to just miss a month.
30:00Perfect.
30:03Look at that.
30:05Slow-cooked deliciousness.
30:07Oh, look at that.
30:21Oh, yum.
30:23This may be the first time in my life where I've said,
30:28oh, I really wish my period was here.
30:30I don't know what my friends here.
30:31Oh, my God.
30:32This is pretty good.
30:34No, no, no, no.
30:36This is the best time for my family.
30:38I think that nothing's here.
30:40Oh, my God.
30:42Oh, my God.
30:43It's okay.
30:45I know.
30:47I know.
30:49Oh, my God.
30:51I know.
30:53I know.
30:55You're not alone.
30:56It's day forty-three.
31:09I'm sorry.
31:15It's too cold.
31:20Oh, too cold.
31:23It's freezing.
31:29I woke up this morning with really cold toes.
31:35All the ground is crunchy.
31:38Yeah, it's very icy.
31:40It becomes a real problem for me because inside my prosthetic,
31:45I'll show you,
31:48inside there, my stump is frozen.
31:51It'll be white on the end.
31:53It becomes a problem because it just means I lose so much dexterity.
31:57And it's hard to do things.
31:59It's hard to find motivation.
32:01It slows me down.
32:05And the cold draws lots of energy out of your body,
32:09which means you burn weight even quicker.
32:12And I've got very little to lose now.
32:19Last night on my little fishing foray,
32:21I saw a little paddy melon.
32:23So I'm thinking I'm going to turn my gill net into a purse net.
32:27Perfect.
32:29See if I can get a soft paddy melon.
32:33So today's about getting a purse net going.
32:39I'm going to be tired a lot quicker these days.
33:05Oh, it's quite a spring.
33:07That's what I need.
33:10Put a sock inside my prosthetic.
33:13It's constricting my blood flow even more.
33:15So I'll take that off.
33:17Too much pain for my liking.
33:19It's actual pain.
33:22I think the socks,
33:25according to all blood flow,
33:28it's been as cold a stump.
33:31It's a prosthetic sock.
33:34But check this out.
33:43So it's all numb from about there down.
33:46Can't feel anything.
33:48Well, actually, no, it burns.
33:54It's proper pain.
33:56I say white and waxy frostbite.
34:02It's white and waxy.
34:04It's not frostbitten.
34:05But if I was to leave this for a long time,
34:09it would cause some big issues for me.
34:18My biggest worry coming out here
34:19is I would lose my nubbins to frost nip or bite.
34:23Don't forget they've got fingertip feeling.
34:26I've learned to really love my stump.
34:29It's part of who I am.
34:33I think about myself as a little boy.
34:39I used to hide my hand all the time.
34:42Sometimes I would wish I would have two innings.
34:46Part of me also desperately wanted to be normal.
34:53I remember being 8-8-9-8.
34:57My best friend was playing in a pub.
35:01And he saw me.
35:02This pretty girl walked into the pub.
35:05He watched me pick up my jumper and place it on my arms
35:10so I could hide it.
35:11He said, Tom, why would you just do that?
35:16I said, oh, no, no, no.
35:18He said, man, you should never hide it.
35:20He said, you are who you are.
35:24And he's so true.
35:28For a while there,
35:29I didn't think any girl would ever be interested in me,
35:32to be honest.
35:33I didn't think I'd find love.
35:36Was I wrong?
35:39If I was going to go back and talk to myself,
35:42I'd tell him to just be yourself, mate.
35:46You'd be fine, mate, with one hand.
35:48You'd still meet girls.
35:51You'd still be able to do everything that you want to do.
35:54Just always keep working at it
35:55and never be scared to give something a go.
35:58That's probably all I'd say to little Tom.
36:00The day I stopped hiding my stump.
36:06It's the day the world stopped noticing.
36:08It's all I've seen.
36:12Like I said, I'm feeling weak already.
36:15Okay. As I said, I'm feeling weak already. I hate saying it. I need more food. This
36:37has got a lot of tension. I have to be very careful to keep my face away from this.
36:45Fuck.
36:57I think I'm going to have to stop.
37:11Oh, da-da-da-da-da.
37:15Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
37:26Ah, fucking hell.
37:35If I was to say one thing, all I want to do is just go home.
37:41It's the ultimate human endurance challenge.
37:53The battle is on to survive alone in the rugged Tasmanian wilderness,
37:58with the winner taking home a prize with $250,000.
38:11I've woken up from my afternoon lie down.
38:17I didn't sleep.
38:23But I decided to come down here and put my lines in.
38:29It's a nice afternoon.
38:31I don't know if we're going to catch anything.
38:35I'm worried about my bowels, eh?
38:39Maybe I have chronic constipation.
38:41Like, I feel great. I'm eating good. I'm just not shit.
38:47I feel like it's going to be painful when it happens. I don't care about that.
38:51As long as it happens and it doesn't take me out, I'll be happy as loudly, man.
39:03I've never had an issue of constipation, but this is not a good place to have it if I do.
39:21Holy shit. I'm pretty sure I just saw a fan.
39:35Holy shit, we got a fish. We got a fish on over here. Jesus.
39:42Holy shit. Just died out of the water. We got a fish on, team.
39:48I hope it's still on. Is it? Did it get off?
39:57Please, still be on. Holy hell.
40:03Oh, yeah. It's still on. Oh, stay on, buddy. Please.
40:10Holy shit. Oh, oh. Get up on there, mate. Yes. Holy shit. Look at that.
40:25That's a bigger one.
40:28I think we'd better... Oh, man.
40:44I don't want to waste anything. Look at these little eggs. Those things are like pure fat.
40:59I wish they were as big as a chicken egg, ma'am. So frickin' good, ma'am.
41:06Let's just hope my body's working well still. There's nothing wrong with it in terms of my bowels.
41:18I don't know what to do about it, eh? I should try and do something about it.
41:28How do they do it when people get chronic constipation? What's the bloody fix for that?
41:34I wonder if they have a bloody operation. I think it's so bad, you know?
41:44One idea I came up with, um...
41:47I don't know if this...
41:48I don't know if this is a good idea or whether this is a terrible idea, but, um...
42:01I've got a bottle there anyway. I was thinking...
42:04If worse came to worse, if I start having real bad pain and stuff...
42:14I might give myself an enema type of... an enema, you know?
42:20If things get real bad out here, I've got this.
42:25So that's my emergency plan if I get super constipated...
42:32and it becomes a real issue that can take me out.
42:37I just really don't want to have to leave for some stupid reason like that, you know?
42:42Far out.
42:45It would really be sad, you know? I'd really be gutted about that.
42:49So that's the kind of a fear I never expected I'd have coming in here.
42:56You know, I never thought that would be a fear of mine.
43:01But it's actually become my biggest fear over the last couple of weeks.
43:06The last couple of weeks.
43:36I'm having no crosses a face...
43:59That I'm gonna get a fish today.
44:02I need more food to keep me going, cause I'm struggling.
44:12I just want some protein in my belly, cause I'm cold.
44:20I've got a fish.
44:23Take it back and let my fire and get it cooking straight away, cause I need something to eat.
44:29Take me away.
44:34I've lost a lot of weight and I'm going to continue to lose a lot of weight.
44:39My calorie intake doesn't increase dramatically.
44:43I need food.
44:44There's no if buts about it now.
44:49My outlaw is getting frayed.
44:53I don't know how much more of this I can touch.
44:59I've got a fish, guys.
45:02Oh, you little ripper.
45:06Oh, shit.
45:08Oh, shit.
45:09Oh, shit.
45:10Oh, shit.
45:12Oh, my God.
45:14There it is.
45:15Look at him there.
45:16Far out.
45:17Oh, yes.
45:21I'm so happy.
45:22I got him.
45:23I got him.
45:24I got him.
45:25I got him.
45:26I got him.
45:27I got him.
45:28I got a fish.
45:29Oh, well, that happened quick, didn't it?
45:30Oh, yeah.
45:31That's awesome.
45:32Good for that.
45:33I was getting very hungry.
45:34I didn't mean to bust you so bad, fish, but you're all right.
45:35You're dead.
45:36I've been so hungry.
45:37I'm so happy.
45:38I got him.
45:39I got him.
45:40I got him.
45:41I got him.
45:42I got him.
45:43I got a fish.
45:44Oh, well, that happened quick, didn't it?
45:48Oh, yeah.
45:50That's awesome.
45:51Good for that.
45:53I was getting very hungry.
45:56I didn't mean to bust you so bad, fish, but you're all right.
46:01You're dead.
46:02I've been so hungry.
46:04Oh.
46:05This trout means that I can be here longer.
46:10It instills faith in courage in me.
46:15Your mental state changes out here so fast.
46:20As today comes to, you know, a close, I can't help but just appreciate all the beauty.
46:45It gives me shiveries up and down my spine.
46:49Oh.
46:50Goodness gracious me, does that taste good.
46:56Oh, how do I describe it?
46:59Look, every trout I've eaten has been amazing.
47:02It's just so awesome to have a fish.
47:05Psychologically, this tastes great.
47:08This is life.
47:09I'm so happy.
47:10I love nature.
47:11I love this country.
47:15I love this country.
47:22Alone Australia, powered by Kia.
47:32It's the ultimate human endurance challenge.
47:35The battle is on to survive alone in the rugged Tasmanian wilderness, with the winner taking home a prize with $250,000.
47:44I just want my period to come.
48:13Put my mind at ease to reassure me that my body is working properly and that my body has not gone into shock.
48:26I'm just waiting to feel cramping.
48:43Like, please, start cramping.
48:48I'm feeling my breasts for tenderness.
48:51Nope.
48:52So, not feeling any breast tenderness.
48:55Not feeling any cramping.
48:57So, not feeling any cramping, so no signs of my period coming.
49:02Oh!
49:03Quentin!
49:04Get out!
49:05What are you doing?
49:06Get!
49:07Are you serious, Quentin?
49:09What are you doing?
49:11I'm meditating here.
49:12I'm meditating here.
49:14Quentin!
49:15I know you're in here.
49:18Get out!
49:19Get out!
49:20Get out!
49:21Get out!
49:22Go on!
49:23Hey, he's finally left.
49:24Anyway, I reckon it's soup time.
49:39This is, what, second lunch?
49:43No, this is first lunch, because I had second breakfast.
49:46What else am I going to do on a rainy day?
49:51I really hope I get my period soon.
49:54I am freaking out.
50:00It is now moved to the forefront of my mind.
50:09250,000 is a lot of money.
50:14And it is almost worth staying in the game for.
50:18But I don't want to risk damage to my body and potentially lose the chance of having a child.
50:26Because there's no money in the world that is worth that for me.
50:39So, me being here is a huge risk to my reproductive health and my possibility to have a child.
50:54So, I'm not going to stay here at the risk of that.
51:07If my period doesn't come, I'm definitely going to call it.
51:12I'm going to do everything.
51:13Yeah, I want, this is a fairly serious run.
51:41Wow, it's been absolutely pissing there, it might not feel a lot quicker than I think.
51:53The weather outside is just windy, rainy, really really volatile.
52:10This is crazy.
52:25The peninsula out there is almost disappearing.
52:29I used to be able to walk out there, but now it's gone.
52:39It's raining so much.
52:42Sweet Jesus, isn't it, Rick?
52:46It's raining out here, man.
52:52I reckon this will be flooded tonight, absolutely.
52:57I reckon the water will be up to this doorstep by the morning, maybe over it.
53:01Maybe over it.
53:02Maybe over it.
53:08Maybe over it.
53:27We've just had two days of constant rain, but it's a beautiful morning this morning.
53:55That sun reflecting off the water is just divine, but wow, how's the light come up?
54:04Well, you can see behind me just here how close it is to camp, so it's actually up to the
54:09base of that tree now.
54:11We've probably got maybe 800mm and the fireplace will be flooded.
54:17And man, we are just running out of real estate.
54:21This is all I've got left.
54:22I've just got that little patch, see there, a little shoreline.
54:30You know, and then I'm pushed all up into the sticks and whatnot, so.
54:34If this keeps raining like this for days, well, I could be out of here in a few days.
54:39Yeah, and it just made me feel a bit sad that, you know, you come to the realisation that
54:47if the lake does fill and I'm stuck in this little patch here, it is the beginning of the
54:53end.
54:54I can, don't, don't worry, I will, I'll fight to the end and I'll bloody cultivate the whole
55:02thing looking for worms and shit.
55:04It just saddens me that if that takes me out after all this hard work, you know.
55:12I'm going insane.
55:13The lake's come up so high, can't get out of this weather, it's just non-stop.
55:20It's come up a significant amount overnight, the most I've seen it, probably four times
55:38more than any other day.
55:39I've got to pack up and get out of here.
55:40It's a day.
55:41Imagine if I stayed to 70 days, and with the rain, there might be more tap outs.
55:45You might even have a shot at winning.
55:50This is the base of my shelter, right here, and this, this is the frickin' lake.
56:02We are surrounded by water.
56:08Can I man?
56:12You can all get a lot of water.
56:13I'll just get a little bit tired of this morning.
56:17The great癖 really with it.
56:20The most relaxing things are.
56:21It tastes like the fellowship of mushrooms and the nouvelle teams are in.
56:24I'm just a few more laughs.
56:26I'm just a little bit worried about it.
56:27I have a lot certainly.
56:28Theache is such a beautiful song.
56:30It's a beautiful song.
56:31I'm not the celebrity on set stuff, but I have to poke
56:35it in a new wilderness.
