Ed Stafford undertakes an extreme survival challenge as he washes up naked and alone on a desert island, Olorua, south east of Fiji. He has only his brain, bare hands and a camera to keep him alive. He'll take no food, water, clothes, knife or tools, so from the moment he arrives he is on a race to stay alive. As man can only last three days without water and three weeks without food, Ed will attempt to survive on the island physically and mentally, for 60 days.
Arriving on a remote, uninhabited Fijian island with nothing, the first man to walk the Amazon, explorer Ed Stafford has to quickly establish his priorities of water, shelter, food and fire to have any chance of surviving his 60-day challenge.
As Ed's physical health deteriorates, so does his mental state, and loneliness begins to take its toll. Constantly hungry and dehydrated, he desperately needs to move out of his exposed caveman home and build a shelter inland.
Finally, Ed's beginning to master the island, and is living almost comfortably. But he's still got two challenges: to kill and eat a feral goat, and to build a raft and enter the shark-infested waters to catch fish.
