The people who go on this show do not watch this show. It is totally fucking obvious they do not do their research. You can watch for 10 seasons and take notes on all the common things that fail miserably, but these are all kind of meat head fit douches and military idiots.

The competition is then whichever team comes out of the challenge with the *most* weight on their bodies. They weigh before, then after, and whichever team weighs the most wins. I think you'd have a much more interesting show, and a couple common outcomes:

I think a lot of times you'd have the nerds do better at shelter building, fire, and food acquisition, but having less experience at survival making more deadly mistakes like lopping a leg off with a machete. If they avoid injury they'd have more weight retained.

Meanwhile I think the Fitbros would do better at shelter billing and killing shit, but would end up losing more weight but a higher chance of avoiding injuries due to experience in survival. It'd definitely make for a more interesting show.

A final note: I definitely couldn't do that shit, even with the small amount of military and survival training I have. I'm making fun of them but it is a fucking hard challenge. I just think the contestants tend to be stupid and it's obvious from their lack of research.

Like, not building up their barefoot walking skills, or not knowing how to shoot a fish with a bow, or not knowing that...traps need fucking bait, all show that really they're sort of mediocre survivalists and kind of not very bright but get on the show b/c of past training.
