Adventurer Hazen Audel talks about his jungle must haves – from the backpack, to the camera crew.
GENEVIEVE TERBLANCHE
Amazon essentials

Survival expert and adventure guru Hazen Audel (from the reality series Primal Survivor and Survive The Tribe) is back with a brand-new trip into the unknown in Primal Survivor: Escape The Amazon, Wednesdays on National Geographic (*181) at 21:00. It’s a 60-day, 805km expedition on foot through the uncharted Amazon jungle to reach Guyana’s Atlantic coast. Whether he’s getting stung repeatedly while sticking his hands in a beehive for a scoop of honey, carrying around rotten fish because it’s too wet to make a fire, or sucking on a tender grub for breakfast, Hazen will stop at nothing to survive, and he never loses his sense of wonder out in the wild.

But he wasn’t alone on the journey. We spoke to Hazen about what he and his crew went through to make Primal Survivor: Escape The Amazon season 1.
