Yeah.
And then they gave me a bowl of water.
Nasty, nasty.
But I knew I had to drink, so I drank it.
And they gave me an MRE that looked like it had been there forever.
for a decade i mean it was sun bleached freaking i mean just like it'd been it had been laying in the sun for a thousand years but i knew i had to eat you know i mean you're gonna die if you don't drink water and eat something so i did what i could to try to eat it he gave me a can of pepsi i think that was that first day and i remember you know spilling some of it and the ants were everywhere flies were everywhere freaking nasty nasty nasty
And made it through the first day.
And that night, they said, will you do a video?
And I said, hell no, I'm not going to do a video.
And they said, they didn't seem to push the issue.
And then I started thinking, well, I can't really stop them if they freaking come in here and start videoing me.
What am I going to do?

So I thought, all right, let me just do what they taught me to do in resistance training in survival school.
Because I had been to Special Forces C-Level SEER.
It's the same SEER that SF guys go through.
They go through with us, and we're all together in the camp.
And I was actually the first person to ever go through SF sea level seer that used it in the real world.
Wow.
