Season 1

Matt Wright begins his solo XL challenge in South Africa and must find a food source fast. Plenty of wild animals roam the Selati Basin but it's going to take every ounce of skill for this hunter to take dinner home.

Bombarded by horrific storms, Matt Wright and his shelter can no longer handle the beating rain. Only one choice remains: move on in search of a sturdier home or be sent home early.

Matt discovers a new camp, giving him hope another tribe could be close by. Meanwhile, who knew impala hide could make such fashionable and protective gear?

Reaching a breaking point, Matt reads a letter from his wife that was hidden inside a knife handle. Overcome with emotion Matt is unsure he can continue the journey.

Even the greatest survivalists in the world are vulnerable to the crippling effects of isolation. Unwilling to give up and more determined than ever, Matt sets out to hunt down the other survivalists.

Matt wakes up to find his camp burning down around him. A fire forces Matt to face the grim reality of having almost been killed. It’s his last chance to find XL tribe for his own safety and sanity.
