Part 2 was on last night, it's so good!

But all those bugs and spiders, ugh!

my idea of HELL is a place like that.

i grew up in a lot of places about them.

but the climbing bits are cool.

Steve Backshaw is so dedicated, and is one helluva ballsy fella - did you see the bloody teeth on that fish they caught at night?.
He broke his back shortly after filming this didn't he? (Thankfully seems to be making a great recovery).

The bug guy is brilliant.... loved the bird-eating spider bits.

Justine and the other main cameraman are excellent and come across as great fun people.

Loving it.

It's great isn't it? We love natural history programmes.

I couldn't believe Mad Steve jumped in the river to free the net, which then came up full of piranhas!

And that climb - blimey

i felt their pain during that climb.

big wall climbing is uncomfortable as hell at best.

it's slow, too.
