"." "I'm Bear Grylls, and each week," "I'm gonna be taking a different celebrity on a two-day adventure into the wild." "(man) Oh, my God." "(Bear) This season is the most extreme..." " Whoo." "(Bear) And intense yet, and these celebrity have no idea what they're in for." "I'm not climbing out of the gondola." "Bear!" "Ah!" "(Bear) How are you with heights?" "Not great." "Whoa ho ho!" "(Jesse) This is probably the highest I've ever been in my entire life." "Oh, my God." "On a mountain." "Death grip, death grip, death grip." "Oh, boy." "Without being alarmist, there are crocs in the river." "Plastic explosives." "Hey, Ma, I love you." "One, two, three." "Ah!" "This is kind of like a helicopter, just a little more dangerous." "Ha." "Ha, ha, ha!" "You okay?" "(Bear voice-over) These celebrities will be pushed beyond their limits and tested like they've never been tested before." "You're about to see a side of them you've never seen." "You're gonna make me vegan again." "Ah!" "Go, go, go!" "[bleeps]" "(Bear) Million dollar blockbuster star Michelle Rodriguez..." "Whoo!" "(Bear) Joins me for an action packed adventure." "Uh." "Oh, don't look down." "(Bear) Michelle is best known for starring in Lost and some of the highest grossing films of all time, including Avatar and the Fast and Furious franchise." "Touchdown, baby." "(Bear) She may be known as one of Hollywood's bad girls, but beyond that tough exterior is a sensitive side." "As you're getting older, you're wondering what the whole thing's about." "Losing people close to you is so tough." "Yeah." "(Bear) I'm taking Michelle to the red deserts of Nevada..." "Oh, man." "(Bear) Where the heat is only half the battle." "Burns a good bit." "[disgusted laugh]" "(Bear) Michelle may live on the edge..." "Ah!" "(Bear) But in the wild, she's gonna have to hang on tight." "(Michelle) [grunts]" "Michelle, are you okay?" "Guys, this isn't good." "[dramatic music]" "♪ ♪" "I'm about to go on a two-day adventure with Bear Grylls." "Bear told me to meet him on the airstrip, so I'm basically waiting for him to come and whisk me away." "Come on, Bear." "I'm a little freaked out, and at the same time, excited, pretty much on the edge of my seat." "[laughs]" "I'm on my way to pick up Michelle Rodriguez, action star, Hollywood wild girl, and all around badass." "She renowned for showing no fear, but I've learnt in the wild, Mother Nature shows no mercy." "Let's go get her." "I'm so glad he didn't take us to the jungles of South America." "I hate bugs." "I love letting go every now and then, you know, and let life take over." "The only time in my life where I do feel really alive is when I can live in that moment, and that usually happens in dangerous situations." "[laughs]" "I'm taking Michelle to the deserts of Nevada, one of the most unforgiving places in all of North America, and it's recognizable by its dramatic..." "There's a plane right there." "(Michelle voice-over) You have no idea what's gonna happen when Bear Grylls calls upon you." "[laughs]" "Yeah, I think that's it." "[laughs]" "Bear, be gentle." "I'm Bear, hey, nice to meet you." " Yes." " You ready for this?" "Yes, I am." "Okay, one parachute." " [laughs]" " Let's get you into that." "Okay, you're gonna love this." "I was born ready." "Whether I can handle it or not is a different story." "[laughs]" " Okay?" " Yeah." "Okay." "Okay, this is good." "You can do this, all right?" "Goggles on." "Ready?" "One, two, three, and go!" " Go!" "[bleep]!" " Okay." "Go on!" "Ah!" "Whoo!" "Whoo!" "Wow!" "That was sexy." "(Michelle) Whoo!" "Wow." "Where is she?" "There we go." "So I'm down on the ground." "It's definitely windy here, much windier than I thought, and I'm just worried about the 100 foot bluff over there." "That's what she's got to try and avoid." "(Michelle) Ah!" "[grunts]" "(Bear) Oh, dear." "That's potentially not very good." "Michelle, are you okay?" "Michelle, are you there?" "Guys, this isn't good." "[bleep]!" "Yeah, I'm good." "I'm kind of hanging off the side of a little ridge here that--and I'm okay." "So much for the perfect landing, huh?" "[laughs]" "I always say the adventure begins when things begin to go a little bit wrong." "[groans]" " Thank you." " Good." "[laughs] That was awesome, dude." "You kidding me?" "I'm alive, man." "[laughs] And I'm on the ground, so, like, you know, whatever he's got, bring it." "(Bear) Give us a hug." "(Michelle) [sighs]" "I'm so pleased." "I mean, I have a few moments over the years, you know, breaking my back in a free fall accident, had a few crash landings with my kids under paragliders, have a few key moments where my heart--I know, kind of edgy." "Seeing you fly into that was one of those." "[laughs] Don't worry, man." " So you're alive, well done." " No, it's good, man." "Okay, I'm gonna take our reserve chute that we're gonna keep with us, get our packs, and then we're heading up." "(Bear voice-over) Over the next 48 hours, Michelle Rodriguez and I will descend a steep, crumbling cliff to the canyon floor, and navigate through narrow slot canyons to find a place to camp." "On day two, we'll hike up and over jagged rocks and treacherous boulders to find a way to our exfil route." "So where were you brought up, Michelle?" "Texas, San Antonio, Dominican Republic, and New Jersey." "Really?" "And have you got a big family?" "Yeah, I got twin brothers from my mom, and then if you count my dad's side, got brothers and sisters there too." "It's great." "So you grew up with older brothers?" " Yeah." " Um" "Farting in my face and pushing me around, and" "What, so were you always fighting, and" "Yeah, you have" "Think it made you a bit of a tomboy?" "They'd make fun of me for wearing a Sunday dress to school." "Wasn't my fault, Grandma made me do it." "And did that make you react against the whole Sunday dress thing?" "Yes, it totally did." "Hence my tomboy-ism today." "I love it." "Okay, this is where it gets a little steeper." "We'll just put you on a rope, and we'll help each other down." "Let you lead the way." "[laughs] You're joking, right?" "So yeah, it's fine." "Straight down there." "Okay." "(Bear) Thing is, we're very high up here, you know, and it only takes one little slip, and that slip becomes a fall, and you're gone." "(Michelle) So if I slip, you got me, right?" "(Bear) I got you." "(Michelle) [laughs] All right." "(Bear voice-over) Gonna put her on that short rope, and it allows me just to control her a little bit and keep her safe, just in case she slips." "Okay, at some point, we do need to start heading down." "Where exactly do you think that's gonna be?" "This is good, 'cause we can tie a rope 'round one of-- some of these boulders." "It might be time to dig out the long rope from my backpack, but I reckon" "Can't even see." "Throw a rock or something?" "I reckon every second is like 100 foot." "(Michelle) Okay." "(Bear) Here, you count." "One, two, three, four, fi--oh." "[laughs]" "When Bear threw the rock, it took about five seconds to land." "It looks scary, looking down." "Yeah, I'm scared. [laughs] This is completely insane." "There you go, I'm gonna use that." "Are you crazy?" "That's sand." "Look at that." "Okay, can you see my hand?" "Yeah." "I found a big old hole of a thread that I can get the rope around, and we can then repel all the way down, and the good thing about that, it's gonna take us right down to the canyon floor," "and then we can make some progress." "It's going a long way, isn't it?" "Honestly, man, you're crazy." "[laughs]" "Is that the bottom?" "Think so." "So you're gonna just go back like this." "Okay?" "And don't look down too much." "You sure about this rock?" "Yeah, I'm fine." "Okay?" "Keep looking up, and you just hold that rope like this, okay?" "I don't often get scared, but I'm quite scared looking down." "Lean back and just walk backwards." "Lot of trust." "[shudders]" "Oh, don't look down." "If one of us peed, then we got a urine soup." "Have you never had urine soup?" "[both laughing]" " Oh, my God." "(Bear) And later..." "We got one final hurdle." "Oh, snap, man." "You just can't make it easy." "I don't often get scared, but I'm quite scared looking down." " [laughs]" " I'm gonna keep looking up." "Okay." "(Bear) In these big moments, let fear be your guide." "You're not human if your heart doesn't beat a little bit faster when you look down that far." "[whistles]" "I know I'm nervous, because I start to whistle when I'm nervous." "[whistles]" "I'm surprised it's holding up." "It's kind of scary to attach the rope that's, you know, gonna save your life to compressed sand." "Okay, down." "That's a long way." "Okay, Michelle, I'm on the bottom!" "Aw, [bleep], Bear." "You're crazy." "Hey, you've never been a girl who's taken the easy route in life in anything." "Oh, man." "Damn it." "Oh, don't look down." "[bleep]" "Lean back and just walk backwards." "It's a lot of trust." "Just trust it." "Lean back, you're safe." "Yeah." "All right, slack!" "[shudders] Whoa." "[bleep]" "So feet on the wall, flat on the wall." "(Michelle) Uh." "(Bear) There you go." "Straighten your legs." "Straighten your legs." "Even more, lean right out." "There you go." "I got it." "That's your position, okay?" "Here we go." "Whew." "Now you're looking like a professional." "Amazing, well done." "Keep leaning back." "Keep leaning back." "Got it." "Yeah, legs up, that's it." "Yeah, keep bouncing." "Big bounce, swing out, go on." "Give it a...big jump." "Go--hey, there you go." "The ground." "The ground." "Yes, the ground." "Let me go." "[laughs]" "Mmm." " Well done." " [laughs]" " Well done." " I mean, really." "I am happy to have made it to the bottom...alive." "[laughs]" "Yeah, that's always good." "Damn, that's high." "It's good, we've saved ourselves hours going down there." "[whistles]" "It's just--you know, I'm not used to trusting like that." "It's really gnarly." "Good job." "That was a big step." "Yeah, it is." "Okay." "(Bear voice-over) Whenever you've done something that, you know, really required a lot of focus, it's good just to take a minute, have a sip of water, keep hydrated, regroup, and then carry on." "I read somewhere that you always felt you were a bit of an outsider." "I never quite fit in, you know?" "Everybody always thought I was weird." "It's probably true." "I think that's when I acquired, like, the whole knack for acting." "You know, if I was hanging around gangster types," "I'd just act like them." "And then I got to hang out with nerds who would sit down in the basements and play Dungeons and Dragons all day, and I would just become one, and I thought that was great." "So what was your first audition?" "My first audition was for Girlfight." "Ah." "'Cause I was like, "Oh, dude, I can fight." "I can throw down."" "And you don't have to wear lipstick and try to, like, woo some guy, you know?" "Yeah." "It was about a girl who found what she loved and wanted to be independent." "So I went to the open casting call, and it's crazy for me to be standing there in front of the director of this film," "250, 300 girls behind me, you know, and-- looking at her and being like," ""Eh, I could beat all these girls up." "[laughs]" "Give me a chance." "Give me a shot."" "So you went in with attitude?" "Well, I told that, you know, I didn't go to school for it or nothing, but, you know, I'm a quick learner." "That was your big break?" "That was my big break." "And then what about FastandFurious?" "[laughs] That was Vin, he saw me in Girlfight." "So he told the director, he's like, "Yo," "I want that girl to play my girlfriend."" "And then they called me in, read me up, and next thing you know, I'm, like, getting a driver's license, so--so I can learn" "So you didn't have a driving license at the start?" "I didn't have a driver's license." "That's cool." "But they took me to car racing school, and that's where I really learned how to drive." "You learn lines, you learn that there really is no turn." "Everything's just one straight line, and once you figure that out, you're in racing territory." "And are you a good driver now?" "I think I'm all right, man." "I can get from point A to point B pretty quick." "You're surrounded by great drivers." "You've learned, like me, whenever anyone asks," ""Are you a good climber or a good skier, or whatev--"" "I always go, "I'm enthusiastic."" "[laughs] That's what it is." "We're both surrounded by people, always kind of" " Yeah, it's true." " You know." "All right, you ready to do it?" "Let's do this." "Yee-haw." "(Bear) Now we're down on the canyon floor," "We can make much better progress, but it is a bit of a maze, and trying to maintain your bearing is difficult." "Doing okay?" "Yeah." "So the goal is, keep moving, find a little bit of open ground where we can make camp." "Bit of a dead end, this bit." "Hold on." "Okay, we want to go this way." "You're joking, right?" "It's either that or we go back and try and find another way." "Again, it's just trying to improvise, think of clever ways to get us up over these slot canyons." "So I thought, "If we can get a rope up this crack," ""tie a big bundle of knots in it, maybe it will wedge in, and then we can use that to wriggle our way out,"" "but it looks pretty tight." "(Bear) Okay, you want to do the honors?" " Ready." " Throw the whole bundle." " The whole bundle?" " Yeah, yeah, don't wanna get a snag." "I suck at this." "I was never any good at baseball." "[laughs] Well, take a wallop there." "So big throw." "Awesome, that is almost there." "Go and give it a pull." "[grunts]" "Nice job." "Oh, right on." "Okay." "You sure that's in there?" "I'll go first, then we'll find out if it is or not." "You wouldn't believe what it's caught on." "Absolutely wedged in." "Okay, pull out the slack and go for it." "Huh." "Looks a lot easier than it is." "[grunts]" "[groans]" "You hold me?" "Yeah." "Two, three." "[groans] [grunts]" "[grunts]" "Think you're too wedged in there." "[groans] Yeah, I'm stuck." "[bleep]" "(Michelle) Dude." "Gut him and skin him and cook him up." "You're gonna make me vegan again." "(Bear) And later..." "You don't strike me as someone who's scared of risk." "I haven't been the lead in a movie in 13 years out of big fear." "It's like, all eyes on you." "Yeah." "[grunts]" "Think you're too wedged in there." "It was definitely a bit of a struggle for Michelle to get up this crack." "It's a tight squeeze, and feels definitely a bit claustrophobic." "(Michelle) Yeah, I'm stuck." "I'll tell you what, let me come on and give you a bit more leverage here." "(Michelle) You good?" " Yeah." "[groans]" "Just maybe go up, rather than the long-- where you can create a bit more space." "All right, you good?" "Yup." "[groans]" "Almost there." " Damn." " Good." "There you go." "Respect, Bear." "That's some-- some crazy stuff right there." "Dude, yeah, that was gnarly." "If Bear wasn't holding that rope," "I think I would've slipped off." "[laughs]" "Let's keep going." "[laughs]" "(Bear) See what I mean by a maze?" "(Michelle) [chuckles]" "(Bear) It's crazy, isn't it?" "That lizard shoot in here?" "Yeah, he's gone." "The only flaw in my plan is that I haven't found anything to eat yet." "So far, wild one, Bear zero." "Oh." "Fellow--see on the wall?" " Yeah." " Little mouse?" "Dude." "Oh, that's real." "Juicy and tasty for you." "It's better than nothing." " [laughs]" " Oh, dude." "You're worse than my cats, man." "[laughs] Yeah, well, we'll..." "Mice are so cute." "Gut him and skin him and cook him up." "You're gonna make me vegan again." "The thing is, whatever we do, we want to conserve every ounce of this, 'cause there's not very much of him." "I tried being vegetarian, and, yeah, I failed miserably." "You're insane." "But you know, right now, I wish I could handle that diet." "Okay, good." "Well, that worked out." " Oh, great." " Sorry about that. [laughs]" "Yeah, that's wonderful." "I mean, wow." "[laughs]" "Here you go, Michelle." "We get into this flat bowl, maybe camp down in the bottom of it there." "Oh, look, he looks like a-- like some sort of statue." "Yeah." "Well, let's use it." "You know, a good natural overhang, make a fire underneath it in the unlikely event it rains." "I'm gonna make you the camp to die for." "You're gonna love it." "Michelle's exhausted." "I'm pretty exhausted." "It's been a long day." "I just want her to be able to sit down and relax, and I'm gonna make camp." "So what I'm gonna do is, we've got that reserve parachute that I can kind of scrunch up into an improvised hammock." "It's gonna work perfectly." "She's gonna love it." "What is this thing?" "It's a hammock?" "That's awesome." "Okay, here you go." "[chuckles]" " Just go gently with it." " [laughs]" "Okay, go, jump." "There's a lot of trust involved in this show." "That's good, it's good, it's good." "[grunts]" "How's that?" "It's freakin' amazing." "The hammock is pretty cool." "You totally knew we would need this." "I couldn't believe it's that easy." "What--where are you sleeping?" "I'll sleep on the dirt." "No way." "Oh, I feel bad." "No, it's good." "I'm super happy." "We're gonna make a fire here." "The desert is always the easiest place to make fire." "There's loads of dry grass around to use as tinder, fire steel to get it going." "Angle it a bit, angle it." "There you go." "Good job." "And then it's cooking the mouse." "We have got..." "the mouse." "I don't know if I'm as hungry as a mouse hungry, but I do know we got a strong hike tomorrow, and in order to get through that hike," "I'm gonna need some energy." "Come on then, you pull the guts out." "Why?" "Well, you're gonna eat it." "You might as well." "Am I really?" "Get your fingers in there." "Get all of that out." "Ugh." "Ew!" "[laughs] [chuckles]" "Don't be squeamish, just pull it all out." "That's its intestines, dude." "Okay, ditch it." "Throw it." "Okay, so we're gonna skin him." "Ah!" "Oh!" "[laughs]" "Sorry." "That's just not cool." "There's nothing cool about this." "Ah, skin comes right off, doesn't it?" "You want to keep the tail as a souvenir?" "No thank you." "Okay, so look, that's what we're left with." "There's nothing there." "Thing is, if you try and roast that, all the fat will drip-- you'll lose all the goodness, so we're gonna stew it." "You're gonna make mouse soup?" "Yeah." "Think that sounds good?" "(Michelle) Yeah, Bear's pretty special." "I knew I would probably have to eat something, you know, gnarly." "You serious, Bear?" "But you know, if it's a survival skill, I guess." "Ugh!" "That's not gonna make much of a broth, but you know what we could do to supplement this?" "I am almost scared to hear what you have to say about the situation." "Well, if one of us peed, and then we stew the mouse in the pee and the water, and then we've got a urine mouse soup." "Have you never had urine mouse soup?" "Oh, my God." "[laughs]" "All we need is a willing volunteer." "I can pee, but I can tell you, you don't want to be drinking any of my pee." " I can't believe this [bleep]." " And in an hour's time, you'll feel full of energy." "Anyway, go behind the back." "You are such a weirdo." "I'll get the fire going." "Bear's officially insane in my book." "Yeah." "Try and really squeeze it out." "Dig deep." "This is so strange." "Once, on a mission in the desert," "I was without a compass or GPS, and there were no markers in any direction to find my way, but all was not lost." "An easy solution you can count on to figure out your sense of direction is to put a stick in the ground and to mark its shadow." "15 minutes later, mark its shadow again, and the shadow will have moved east, allowing you to figure out north, south, east, and west." "And that's my tip of the week, brought to you by Walmart, where you can trust that you'll find everything you need for all of life's adventures." "I have some legitimate piss in here." "(Bear) That's my girl." "(Bear voice-over) For dinner, we've got the mouse." "The thing is, there's not very much of it, so I want to stew it." "Problem is, we're out of water." "This is insane." "So it's time to improvise." "Well, I've done it a few times in the name of survival, and it's never been-- it's never been a fun exp" "Oh." "I can smell that from here." "Sorry, dude, I'm dehydrated." "Well, it's gonna work." "It is actually safe to drink pee fresh from the tap, so to speak, but to be 100% safe, if you boil it up, it gets rid of any bacteria." "This is the part I dreaded." "Don't mind trekking for hours in the hot sun, but the mouse-- urine and the mouse." "Mm." "That's real special, Bear." "[laughs] Thank you." "I always aim to deliver." "[both laughing]" "Wow." "Okay, would you like to try it?" "Ah!" "You're disgusting!" "I can't believe you'd do this." "My God." "And I have to too, really?" "Ugh." "God." "[laughs]" "Why do I have to chew on the bone?" "Eat the bone." "The bone's a good bit." "[disgusted laugh]" "Ugh." "[laughs]" "It's like chicken." "Yeah, sautéed in...piss." "Well, I'm kind of happy it's my piss and not yours." "Yeah, thanks." "We better not let the broth go to waste." "Ugh!" " Oh." " [retching]" "You're for real." "I can't believe this." "[laughs]" "Ugh!" "Urine has kind of, like, an ammonia thing going on, and when you boil it, it doesn't go away." " Ugh." "God." " Bones are crunchy." "So there have been a few occasions over the years where I've had to drink my own urine, you know, in a survival situation, but there's something about drinking somebody else's." "I've finally found the thing that has broken me:" "mouse and somebody else's urine, stewed." "Bad." "Was today good?" "It was amazing." "I tell you, when you slammed into that cliff, I thought," ""That isn't gonna end well."" "I loved it, man." "You were amazing on that." "It was wicked." "It was like, "All right, brace." "It's gonna be okay."" "[imitates flying] [laughs]" "And just slammed against the wall." "You don't strike me as someone who's scared of risk, though." "You know, there's always something in whatever it is you're doing." "You know, I haven't been the lead in a movie in 13 years out of big fear..." "of, like, be--carrying a film on my own, since Girlfight, I haven't done it." "'Cause you know if you make one little hit, it's, like, all eyes on you." "Yeah." "And that's scary to me, man." "I don't want that kind of" "Yeah, but you've been smart, because you've just done movie after movie, all of these FastandFurious's, it's just smart-- smart way of doing it." "It's fun, but you know, after a while, you kind of look around, and you're like," ""I'm capable of way more than this."" "And then you're like, "What's next?"" "I'm not excited anymore." "Yeah." "Ah, it's been a crazy year." "What's made it particularly crazy?" "Uh, losing people you love." "Wondering, you know, like-- as you're getting older, you're wondering what the whole thing's about." "And your intention just becomes different." "It becomes more about, "What do I care about?" "What am I passionate about?"" "And those things just come to the forefront a lot stronger when you lose people you love." "Losing people close to you is so tough." "You know, we had it on Everest." "We had four climbers who lose their lives up there," "And it rocks your world." "You know, I found for me, it robbed me a lot of confidence, actually, at a young age, you know, and it's-- nothing prepares you for that, does it?" "Four?" "We had four climbers die up there, yeah." "And I know you've been through a really tough year like that." "You know, there are not many manuals on how to deal with it." "None." "Yeah." "None whatsoever." "Who do you kind of lean on?" "Who are the people closest to you?" "I don't really have a lot." "I can probably count all my friends with one hand." "It's better like that." "Yeah." "Less and better is better than more and-- [laughs] Yeah." "You know?" "I find the more I live that I do tend to close ranks more." "You know, you really value your family." "You know, three young boys who are the best." "They literally bring tears to my eyes, thinking about them." " Aw!" " And Shara, you know, my wife, we've been married 14 years now." "So I feel super lucky." "That is awesome, man." "The older they get, the more grateful I get in life." "That's what I find." "Bear's cool, man." "He's a down-to-earth fella." "He knows what life's about, like, chasing your joy, and I didn't think I would connect so easily with him, but bonds are created in rough situations." "Well, it wasn't the most delicious meal" "I've had, but well done." "Ugh." "Don't say I don't show you a good time." "You're insane." "You know that, right?" "What's the most disgusting thing you've ever had to eat?" "Um... raw goat's testicles were a low point." "Camel intestinal fluids, but nothing compares to your urine and mouse." "That's taking it to a whole nother level." "[laughs] Than elephant dung." "Thank you for the experience." "(Bear) Ugh." "(Michelle) Jeez." "[laughs]" "Well, Michelle seems to be sleeping like a baby in the hammock." "Pretty pleased with that." "I still got that taste of urine in my mouth, which is making it slightly harder to sleep." "He looks so much more comfortable than I am, swinging around here." "but it's-- it's so uncomfortable." "[laughs]" "I'd rather sleep on the floor." "[laughs]" "Yeah, I'm stuck." "What the [bleep]?" "(Bear) Keep moving up." "I can't." "Put your foot in there." "Ah!" "[bleep]" "Morning, Michelle." "Mm." "(Bear) This is what I've learnt about Michelle," "I think actually she's a vampire." "How you doing?" "[grunts]" "It was like trying to wake the dead." "[yawns]" "How was the hammock?" "[laughs] [grunts] [laughs]" "You okay?" "I am not a morning person." "You get a bit of this... which is what they make Mormon tea out of." "Gives you, like, a natural high." "Really?" "Yeah, if you chew it for long enough." "I've given her some of the shoots off this ephedra bush." "It's like nature's pick-me-up." "Thought it'd give her a buzz." "[both laughing]" "It was definitely weird." "Ephedra bush is cool, kind of gives you a little wake-me-up." "So the plan today, keep heading north." "We'll be able to see the peak when we get over here, and that's our extraction point." "All right?" "And we're on our way." "Okay." "We've still got a lot of travel to do." "It's funny, though, because she's just been chewing and chewing and chewing." "[laughs] So she's definitely ready to go." "I feel alive!" "Whoo!" "I like the way it merges." "Yeah, it's cool." "The white rock with the red rock." "Oh, man." "Getting lots of hot sun." "Yeah." "What's it like doing the icy stuff, like Everest?" "Everest is just brutal." "[chuckles]" "Yeah, we were on that mountain for three months." "But I got quite bad frostnip in my fingers and toes, so I have to work really hard now to keep warm in the cold climates, you know?" "Why, 'cause it ruins you for life?" "Once--yeah, once you kill the cells, it's really hard to get warm." "Oh, wow." "So yeah." "I never wanted to reach the end of my life in a perfectly preserved body." "You know, that's a waste." "[both laughing]" "I want to come screaming in sideways, beaten up, covered in scars, and screaming, "Yahoo, what a ride!"" "Look at you, you're like a ballerina on these rocks now." "[chuckles]" "But we got one final hurdle." "Oh, snap, man." "Really?" "And if anyone can do it," "Miss Rodriguez, it's got your name on it." "Are we climbing that thing?" "Let's go do it." "Come on." "I'm thinking that that climb is going to be gnarly..." "I've left some ropes right from the top that run all the way to the bottom." "'Cause it's a 90 degree straight up angle." "It's pretty scary." "[laughs] Oh." "Oh, man." "You just can't make it easy, man, we're this close." "You just gotta go with the hard stuff." "This is so" "Okay, let's get you set up." "I'm like--I am almost certain that there's an easier way..." "Okay." "But he always chooses the hard way." "So how we're gonna do this." "This Jumar fixed onto the rope, it can only go up, it can't come back down, okay?" "So the goal is, we just climb our way out." "When it gets steep, we lean right back, we push up, hang on the harness." "It's demanding, it is physical, but it's the last push." "And we can see the top." "Well, actually, that's a lie, that's a false horizon." "[laughs] Oh, no!" "No, once we're over that, it's the summit, okay?" "Okay." "I am a little freaked out, but if I don't look down," "I won't be as scared." "[dramatic music]" "You ready?" "Yes, I'm ready." "Let's go." "Okay, so there's gonna be an awkward bit getting over this." "What?" "Okay, okay, I'm gonna have to climb." "Yeah." "It's kind of--you can bounce on the rope a bit." "Yeah?" "[groans]" "I'll tell you what, follow my line up here." "[grunting] [bleep]" "(Bear) My concern really here is whether she's got the physical strength to make it up this." "[grunts] Okay." "(Bear) You know, this is a 350-plus feet incline, so to throw her in at the deep end is a big ask." "[grunts] It's rough." "It's hard, but we'll get there." " [grunts]" " There you go." "There you go, just keep doing that." "[grunts]" "There you go." "There you go." "That's really gnarly." "Am I doing it wrong?" "We're getting there." "We're 1/3 of the way." "Yeah, I'm stuck." "Oh, [bleep]." "Keep moving up." "I can't." "Ah!" "[bleep]" "It's not easy." "This sucks balls." "It's physical, isn't it?" "My legs were not prepared for this." "[groaning]" "There you go." "There you go." "That's really gnarly." "Am I doing it wrong?" "We're getting there." "We're 1/3 of the way." "Yeah, I'm stuck." "Oh, [bleep]." "Keep moving up." "I can't." "Put your foot in there." "Ah!" "[bleep]" "It's good." "[bleep]" "(Bear voice-over) Michelle has done amazingly, but it's about 350 foot to the top of this peak." "My concern here is whether she's got the physical strength to make it up this." "[bleep]" "Let's get up to this little ledge, and then we'll put the foot stirrups on." "All right." "Here we go." "We're going up." "I'm scared to hang on this thing." "Yeah, you just gotta trust it." "[groans]" "Good." "All right." "[groans]" "Don't look down, don't look down, don't look down." "Okay, I'm gonna put this little thing on you now." "That a foot stirrup?" "That's is." "And then when you stand in that, you'll swing it a little bit." "Okay." "Yeah, that feels better." "Push this fellow right up... and back in it again." "All right." "[bleep]" "Hold on." "Okay, up you go." "Just put all your weight on the foot stirrups." "[laughs]" "There you go." "[groans]" "There you go." "[growls] Okay." "Talk about fighting gravity, dude." "I know." "My legs were not prepared for this." "It's tough on the quads, this." "What?" "I don't even have quads." "[groans] [grumbling] [groans]" "There you go, we're getting there." "This sucks balls." "Wow." "[laughs] It's physical, isn't it?" "It's a bitch, man." "Okay." "Yeah, yeah." "Well done, Michelle, you're digging deep." "You're doing so well with this." "Really, it's impressive, you know, it's not easy." "[groans]" "It's windy as hell." "Yeah, it is." "Leaning back over." "[panting]" "Well done, Michelle." "Well done, you." "Thank you." "Awesome." "(Michelle) Holy hell." "Well done, you." "(Michelle) Hallelujah." "Money can't buy this feeling." "No, it can't." "Let's do it." "Whoo!" "We've made it to the top, and I warned her that was gonna be physical, and I was right, but the thing about Michelle is she is not a quitter." "She's pretty beat, but she made it to the top, so I'm proud of her." "(Bear) Well, look at that for a view." "(Michelle) This is beautiful." "Impressive, Michelle." "You know, that's your first time ever doing that, and you figured it out and you worked it out." "Respect." "I feel good to be at the top." "I just like it, 'cause I know that, you know, that when I reach another peak where I realize that there are other challenges in my life, that I'll be able to face 'em." "So there you go, Michelle." "Down to the track, end of it, two bikes." "Dirt bikes, huh?" "It's our way out." "(Michelle) This whole trip just makes me love nature so much more." "I just feel like I should get out more." "[laughs] Really." "You know, you kind of go a little bit insane, being surrounded by people all the time." "It's so beautiful to get away and push yourself in another way." "It's just refreshing." "It's a rare occasion that you get to do that, push your limits, so I'm very grateful." "Whoo-hoo!" "150, nice." "Yeah." "Are you ready?" "Where we going?" "[engine starting]" "Home." "Nice." "I want to go home." "You ready?" "Ready." "Let's do it." "(Bear) Michelle's got a bit of a reputation for being a little bit of a wild girl, but really, I think she's a bit misunderstood, and what I've learnt on this journey is that she's heart-led, and she's brave enough" "not to compromise on how she wants to live her life, and I really admire that." "For me, it's not surprise that she's loved by many, and I, for one, am a fan." "(Michelle) Yeah, Grylls, you are a loved man." "You are friggin' awesome." "It's been a privilege to ride with you, man." "Respect."
