For the next 72 hours, I'm going to be living here in the Amazon rainforest.

This video is not fake.

I'm literally getting dropped off and left on my own for four days and three nights.

Having to survive in a jungle which doesn't want to bear.

What the fuck?

This was the scariest and toughest three days of my life.

I am so hungry.

And it probably makes you wonder.

why on earth joe are you doing this well i believe

that the best way to conquer a fear is to challenge it face on and i'm a pussy

when it comes to creatures i'm awful like even the sea i've always been way too afraid to go in

because i just don't know what's down there i'm gonna be completely honest with you i'm really scared of you

so to face these fears i'm heading to the one place on earth

that truly frightens me the place

that has the most dangerous creatures on the planet i'm traveling over 50 hours you get off the plane

and you just walk straight out onto the street through harsh terrain to get deep into the amazon rainforest

i can't believe i'm doing this this place is like my worst nightmare

i paid this local to drop me off and pick me up in exactly 72 hours from this same spot

well i'm uh i'm well

and truly alone now stuck here until he comes back i made my way through the forest to try

and find a place to set up camp looks like a giant wasp nest stay away from

that you really don't know what's watching you in this forest

which is a very unsettling feeling okay this way i think

i'm going to set up the camp it doesn't look like much yet

but that's better you see there are four trees the idea

is to essentially build a roof from one tree to the other build a bed underneath that roof

and a fire underneath yes this is a full -on survival

video i only have access to my machete a spare top a cup a knife some basic fishing equipment

and a splint and steel oh

and of course some camera equipment the rain is crazy here so the roof is so important let's get materials

now another problem with the amazon is it's incredibly hot and humid and it just makes everything 10 times harder

this is f*ing tiring I was going at this for hours macheting taking to camp dropping off over and over again

that takes it out of you it is flipping humid here

i think i've got the materials now let's build this thing

i first put two wire sticks against two trees and then a stick it should should hold my weight now

mission success i then did the exact same thing on the other side of the tree

and then i added tons of long sticks to make the base of the roof

boom we've got a foundation for the roof now i need

to chuck loads of leaves on top to stop rain coming through it

and literally just as i was finishing up the roof

it has just started absolutely chucking it down i don't feel a drop of water on me right now

so the roof is a success i've made sure

that the roof is tilted so

when the heavy rainfall comes in it just flows right off

now sitting on the floor like this is incredibly stupid of me

because this is exactly where the vast majority of these venomous creatures live including the bullet ants

which has been recorded to have the most painful sting on the planet

so that's why i needed to build a bed badly

but honestly the rainforest takes it out of you i was

knackered i had to get it done by tonight ah fuck man just there ow ow

that really stings luckily whatever stung me it didn't last too long

so i knew it wasn't life -threatening now for the bed i used bamboo sticks

because they're quite flexible but i had no idea

if they'd hold my weight okay moment of truth it holds I had a fully functioning bed

which raised me off the ground oh

so there's less chance of creatures crawling all over me in the night still a very high chance

but less now that took a lot longer than you probably think like seven eight hours

so I'm gonna chill have a quick break then i need

to sort out a fire now as i was resting the

sun in the amazon went down i have been for the

last hour just getting an abundance of firewood the issue we're

facing is it rained earlier all of the wood is wet

so i don't know

if it's gonna like start a fire these mosquitoes man they're everywhere that's why this fire is incredibly important

but just as i started making the fire look what i've

just spotted literally right by where i'm setting up the fire

as a kid and my mom

and dad can vouch for me on this scorpions were my

biggest fear oh he's crawling into my wood now i waited for the scorpion to go

and got to making the fire

come on burn for me but the wood being wet made this really difficult watch

when i put sticks on how much it smokes and how much the flame disappears like the fire just wasn't catching

these sticks are incredibly wet which is the problem

but i needed this fire to stop the mosquitoes to boil water

so i could drink to cook food if i catch it

and me surviving relied on this but after a lot of patience

and building the size of the sticks up mission success listen to this noise

that whistling sound is the water in the wood we've made

it work just now i needed to keep the fire going

so i collected loads more firewood

and then i collected some river water boiled it up to remove the deadly parasites

and finally had my first drink since getting here

this was the first point where i genuinely just felt good

like i'd created my own base in bed with a fire

i had water i could drink for the first time i could just chill out for a bit

but this is the amazon

hell holy look at this look at this can you see

that a little friend had joined my base oh my fucking god there it is

that is massive there is a massive snake crawling on the

roof of my base right now what the fuck what the fuck this is a snake striking

and trying to bite me

and it was a very close call slightly concerned

because he's just lingering at the top of the tree like

when i go to sleep tonight is he just going to come down bite me and i'm dead i'll be For real, after that, I was pretty shook up.

It's been a knackering day.

Look at how sweaty my t -shirt is.

Oh, that feels nice.

I am just an absolute dirty, sweaty state right now.

I'm so tempted to go bathe in that river.

100

But then the other nine tenths of me is saying, fuck that.

101

I have no idea what is lurking under there.

102

But yeah, I'm gonna try and get some sleep.

103

So with that said, I will hopefully, if I don't get killed, see you all tomorrow.

104

that isn't sound effects what the fuck is that

105

it was incredibly difficult to sleep I mean it was

106

so humid I just kept hearing rustling in the bushes

107

and every hour I had to wake up to make sure the fire didn't go out

108

but I did manage to get a few hours

109

good morning people it's bright

110

and early i didn't get the greatest sleep last night i've

111

got about four hours in total right now i'm gonna collect some more firewood get some water

112

and then i need to think about food because i didn't eat anything yesterday

113

these palm trees produce something called heart of palm that little part in the middle is the food food.

114

Now these are basically just carb sticks.

115

It's not the greatest.

116

But I'm not in a five star restaurant, I'm in the Amazon.

117

And calories are calories.

118

These are the next pieces of food.

119

You break inside them, there's some small worms or grubs as they're known, which technically you can eat.

120

Fucking hell.

121

Oh my god, this is f*ing disgusting.

122

But you know what it actually tasted all right tastes like butter to be fair now the most important food

123

and what's really gonna get me through is the fish in

124

that river so using a piece of wood

125

that I burnt to make more flexible

126

and then attaching my fishing line to it created a little fishing rod the grub

127

that i ate earlier i was going to use as bait and with that said let's catch me some fish

128

i went at this for hours sitting here for like four

129

or five hours now really makes me appreciate my fish

130

and chip shop jokes aside i really needed to catch something come on give me

131

it's getting nothing absolutely nothing i am

132

so hungry right now i wanted it for a bit longer

133

but had no luck today's not been good words can't explain

134

how hungry i am right now don't think i've ever felt this skinny before in my life

135

so hungry in fact i tried to fish even more in the pitch black.

136

Look at this guy.

137

I don't know if that's poisonous.

138

Might be poisonous.

139

These mosquitoes bro.

140

But again had no luck with fishing so I headed back to camp.

141

The mosquitoes here are hell on earth.

142

Like no matter where you walk there's millions of them.

143

I'm starving.

144

I'm bitten everywhere.

145

I'm dirty.

146

Get me out of this place.

147

Honestly.

148

I really want to quit.

149

I really do.

150

I'm just gonna have to firm it and try and get some sleep.

151

I hear steps.

152

What could that be?

153

We've got jaguars out there, we've got humans, we've got anacondas, rattlesnakes.

154

That's to name 1 % of what's out there.

155

Fuck, this ain't gonna be a good night of sleep.

156

The hunger is bad, like I am starving.

157

So I've woken up bright and early, I'm just gonna go on with fishing.

158

See if maybe because it's earlier, there might be more fish out, I don't know.

159

I'm trying anything at this point.

160

I had to get food today.

161

come on come on yes i've finally done it we've caught

162

a piranha lads look at the teeth on this bird boy

163

never thought i'd eat a piranha in my life especially one that i've caught myself look at that beautiful

164

oh that tastes so good i absolutely devoured it

165

that was amazing i then

166

because i've had hardly any sleep the last two nights took a well -deserved nap

167

and after in the spirit of facing my fears in this video i'm gonna bathe in here

168

which i never thought i'd be doing this is known as

169

the deadliest water on the planet where i literally caught a piranha along with

170

that it has black caimans stingrays electric eels anacondas jaguars the wildlife in this water makes my skin crawl

171

on this and what the fuck is down there you can hear how much i'm hyperventilating

172

but remember i didn't even dare go in the sea before this

173

that's me done that's me done hey look any effort is

174

better than no effort i am a bit of a

175

but i did face my fears that was pathetic i know

176

but at least i went in look how bad the mosquito bites are all on me

177

when i got back to camp i heard a noise above my shelter that is mental my camp is literally here

178

179

the monkey kept looking over

180

so it clearly spotted me i'm feeling good like for the

181

first time since getting here i'm actually in a good mood

182

i'll be honest this was the toughest thing i've ever done i hate

183

so many parts of it the amazon rainforest is a Beautiful place like even on the way here.

184

I was so close to calling it off But I'm so glad I pushed through it And we're done to go home.

185

That was the toughest thing I've ever done.

186

I've got like a 40 -hour journey home Morning, but when I get back, that's one.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
