Artivels Undescribable Perfection
Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story
Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Milton Lau This series has some credibility, that was until Joe Teti joined the program. Usually the criteria and content of context is presented in reasonable pretense. With relevant accuracy and facts for the viewer to process. But the credibility factor went out the window when Joe joined the program. Joe's behavior and half-arsed, amateur stuntman antics undermines the credibility of the producers to bring to the viewer a good piece of entertainment and educational product for the viewing audience. During earlier appearances, his "acting and posing" annoyed his partner in the program (Cody). Joe's bad acting and phony posing, underscores that the show should not be taken seriously, that it is solely an entertainment for the pleasure of the audience.In the episode shot in Hawaii, Joe made a lot of bad errors of show-boatman-ship. 1) randomly hacking away at growing bamboo, to the average viewer you might think "big deal". Except in Hawaii, there are several varieties of bamboo that are on the endangered species list, because very few examples exist in the wilds of Hawaii's islands. Some species of bamboo are exclusive to just one island, while a few species are exclusive to the Hawaiian islands, out of the hundreds of species of bamboo in the world. The state department of natural resources could bar Mr. Teti from ever coming back to Hawaii on the grounds of violating the local laws and ordnances written to protect endangered species. He could just be out right arrested, the next time he shows up in Hawaii. 2) The impromptu, killing of a wild pig - by Joe Teti in the Hawaii episode, was done in bad form. For the crew who were probably trying to shoot the program on the premise of being tourists shooting a documentary. Normally in regular circumstances, to hunt pigs in the wild areas, a permit is required and to register with island game wardens, precautions must be taken to not leave exposed animal remains that could become contaminated and proliferate the spreading of viruses and diseases. I would not be surprised to learn the entire production crew and everyone involved in the shoot of that episode, may be liable for violating county ordnances, laws in the state of Hawaii that protect wildlife and for violating preservation areas. Because many trails are public access, going off the trails is illegal and a fine-able offense. 3) openly violating rules for personal safety and violating animal protection laws in a state of the United States of America, is not a thing to flaunt in a program that anyone could view - and misunderstand, when they go to visit Hawaii on their own.There were no disclaimers on either end of the program, about open violation of laws in the shooting of that episode.There are other loose ends that Joe Teti, has imposed upon the program, that undermines the credibility of the overall program for viewers to consider on the merit of the program as a whole. If you watch with an objective eye, you will see him embarrass himself on every show.
celestemekent Does anyone actually believe these two will not be rescued? Seriously folks there are two camera men who we never see but who are constantly present (probably with satellite phones at the ready). The producers know exactly where they are. None of the situations they get stuck in are realistic I would never expect to ever see a similar situation so there is virtually no reason at all to "learn" what to do from what these experts in survival offer us. More importantly there is little to suspend belief and nothing to make me believe they are at much risk.I have no doubt that the information these two experts is show us is legit, but I just cannot muster up enough to care. Aside from the basic humanity there is nothing in common for me.
Nphillips55 I've really found this program entertaining. I'll miss Dave. But I trust the new special forces guy will be able to keep Cody alive. My analogy - Cody is like the gram-ma lost in the woods with bare feet and skirt and Dave is the guy that gets them home. If I had my choice of who to be lost in the bush with, hands down it would be Dave. I have spent much time in the bush and I am amazed at a what a master of bush-craft Dave is. Outstanding fellow. From not only building a functioning bow but also making arrows and actual arrow heads and fletchings... To rope work in rappelling off cliffs and belaying Cody down places Cody could not down climb with bare feet... To multiple ways of starting fire and transporting fire. .. Finding his directions ... making shelters and on and on!!! All the best to Dave in whatever direction he goes and really looking forward to Cody and the new special forces guy and their adventures!
robkingsley I have watched almost every survival show once but Dual Survival I'll watch repeats. While laughing at their descriptions of each other and the situations they find themselves in you can still see them studying each others skills and techniques showing these "Expert Survivalists" are still students of a never mastered occupation. What I find different is the close up step by step explanations of their current task. Never just showing you that areas specific nature and wildlife but its characteristics that will aid. Sometimes they do fail and they show it! At the end of the day in whatever situation these two respect each other and you as the viewer get the knowledge and benefits of there differing takes on survival.
