Their journey begins with a helicopter ride over "the land of fire and ice," aptly named for constant volcanic activity beneath the surface.

A helicopter ride into the mountains is where their journey begins, but from there, danger lurks at every turn - from giant rock domes and deadly bogs to raging rivers with currents strong enough to move cars. On top of that, the only way to reach their extraction is to rappel down a 300-foot waterfall that leaves even Bobby speechless!
Zachary Quinto in the Panama Jungle
Bear Grylls and actor Zachary Quinto race the clock to traverse a dense Panamanian jungle before an impending storm makes landfall.
