I've been watching every season of Naked and Afraid and I have a few observations about the show:

First up, what the hell Vegans? Why are you not dominating the shit out of Naked and Afraid? They literally walking around constant vegan food and don't any of it. It's like the only veggies they know how to eat are the ones that grow on carts in Wholefoods.

Every time a vegan comes on I'm like, "Ohhh boy, here comes to crying and vomiting at having to eat dead flesh while totally ignoring the bounty of veggies around them." Also, most of the vegans have no moral issues eating grubs.

Speaking of insects: Americans are total weaklings when it comes to eating bugs and grubs. They'd be sitting there starving and dying but nearly vomit when trying to eat an insect, if they even attempt it. One dude though is a multi-time winner because he eats dead shit.

He's kind of amazing and I have no idea how he's not dead for parasites, but he just walks around and finds dead fish, freshly killed animals, and some pretty vile shit, and is like "Awwwww yeah, cook this up and ready to GO!" Be more like that guy.

Frequently male contestants will start the show by doing all the heavy lifting and building, which uses up all their energy for the day, then they crash *HARD* about day 2-3. Since most of these guys are also crazy fit their body probably burns double, and most can't handle it.

This makes total sense, but the show frequently portrays the men in this situation as just weak, rather than just victims of the consequence of doing all the lifting and cutting on Day 1. The show does seem to revel in filming them crying and being weak rather then explaining.

None of the people who go on the show can handle walking without shoes, which I find insane because they know they're going on the damn show. Why aren't they just walking barefoot for months and months before going on? They also get sun burned a lot, so why aren't they tanning?
