Man Vs. (2015)
1
There's our boy. Looks like he's ready to make some TV magic. God help us all. Whoa, what did you guys do to the RV? Oh yeah, it's from our new marketing budget. Our mobile billboard. It's chilly. Okay, let's do this, come on, drive ahead. Dad! Dad, dad! Shit, take this. Hey. Hey, you, get over here, it's freezing out here. What are you doing? I made a video for you, so did mom. So you're the little monkey... ...that stole my phone, I've been looking everywhere for it. Yeah, I wanted to make it a surprise. Well, it is, sweet face, thank you. I love you. Okay, get inside, it's freezing. Go go go go. Hey, I'm sorry. You weren't even gonna say goodbye. I didn't wanna wake you guys up. I just wanted to slip away, I'm sorry. Be safe, okay. It's gotta be hard leaving sometimes, huh? Yeah, sometimes. Bill, how long we got? Uh, about a seven hour drive. Then we take a boat to the middle of nowhere... ...where we leave you for dead. This gives me plenty of time to further establish... ...my dominance over my poor younger brother here. Oh, is that right? Well, I've been practicing online so you better watch out. Game on. Whoa, that one? Is that really, that's the one that you wanna move? I'm just saying, that's the way you wanna start it? Are we gonna trash talk each other in this game? It's already over. Smartass. You can't survive on just crab apples Tastes just fine to me You got to know where you're headin' We never know where we're headin' Oh oh no, we just ride and see And do you live the good life Oh Hell No We got kids and a wife Oh hell no We live our life for the ride Ooh ooh Ooh ooh All right, so, final recount. All right, you got four GoPros,... ...one Blackmagic, one HTV with night vision. Oh, and here, lens wipes, use 'em. I'm tired of lack of footage 'cause the lens is dirty. Take it, take it. Yes ma'am, Jesus. Okay, so, final location recap. We're gonna circle up with our guide... ...about 70 kilometers west of Temagami. It's very very remote, nothing for miles. There's a little hunting camp called Bearskin Lake... ...is the closest thing. Used to be a logging mill. Oh, apparently our guide lives there. Great. Topography? Plenty of lakes of rivers, some edible plants,... ...mushrooms, be careful. You eat one lousy mushroom. Memories of season one. Well, let's not have a replay of that. Yeah, but don't forget to eat something gross. The viewers love that. I think you love that. Yeah, I do, I really do. But the viewers do too,... ...and this is a new audience for us, so. I think she's right. She's right, this is our chance... ...to take this show really big. Don't you worry, buddy, Dougie's got it under control. Well, I certainly hope so. There's a lot riding on this. Yeah, and I'm not ready for a real job. Thanks for the overwhelming confidence, guys. You got this, I know, I know. I'm feeling so, I'm feeling the love, I'm feeling it. Mind the door, buddy. Last one in buys. Not too long, guys, days are shorter and shorter. We gotta get out there. Guys, I'm gonna hit the head. Gonna give birth to a calf out of my ass. What the, Ange? What is up? I'm just gonna talk to somebody about where our guide is. All right, Bill, you do that. It's a nice town. You didn't happen to notice a hospital... ...on the drive in, did you? No, you'd be lucky to find a bottle of aspirin here. That's what I figured. Great. Hey, look, man, for the record-- I know that you're gonna go out there... ...and you are gonna do a great job. We all do. Well, all right, thanks, Slim. What, you getting all sentimental on me now? No, I'm not, I'm just trying to find a nice way to say it. Terry, spit it out. Just don't fuck this up. Get us a real show-- You know, no more fart jokes,... ...no more goofball stuff for me to cut around. This network show deal might be our chance... ...to make some real money. And I don't want your ego to get in the way of the team. Hah. I'm sorry, man. I'm gonna go check on the gear. Good, good chat. Fuck me. Okay so, I found our guy. He just got his breakfast, just says he needs a little time. Seriously? I don't think that guy's playing with a full six pack. Bill, you realize, I've gotta build a fire... ...and a shelter before the sun goes down. Yeah yeah yeah, you wanna go talk to him? Ah, Jesus. Come on, do it, go, use your star-studded charm. Get him off his ass, come on. You're an idiot. Go. His name is Duncan. Duncan? Yeah, that dude on the end. Oh boy. I'm Doug, Doug Woods. Real pleasure to meet you, Mr. Woods. Are you a fan of the show? Would be if I had the cable. Yeah, there's that. So, you're pretty familiar with these parts, huh? This your hood? Wouldn't be much of a guide if I wasn't. So any expert advice? What? For a hotshot outdoorsman like yourself? Heck, nothing I wouldn't tell myself... ...every time I go out in the bush. Oh yeah, what's that? That if I die, a bear will probably find my body... ...way before any search party does. I'll see ya on the boat, Mr. Woods. Uplifting. Good. Yeah. Angie, Terry, this is Duncan. Duncan, Angie, Terry. Hey, how's you doing? Thank you. This is some engine you got here, huh? Oh. Need a shallow draw to navigate these waterways. Comes in real handy in the back lakes... ...during the moose season, eh? That's impressive. I know. Only the best. Same as always, five days alone making TV magic,... ...then we pick you up. Anything goes wrong, we track you on the sat phone,... ...we haul your ass out of there. All right? Okay. Ooh, must be nice to have a lifeline. Hey hey hey, this is what you do, all right? Hold that? Hold that. All right, bring it in. Bring it in. Ow! Bony knuckles. Season three! Oh! Son of a bitch. A soaker five seconds in. Is that a new record. Funny. Please, don't start the new season... ...complaining about a soaker. Well, I tell you what,... ...any time you wanna be the guy out here on his own,... ...you let me know, 'cause that'd make a great comedy show. Ass. Hey, don't forget, eat something gross. Hi, everyone. Well, here I am, in the wilderness... ...of the Great Canadian north. My team just dropped me off, and I'm completely on my own. I won't be seeing anyone for another five days... ...until they come pick me up. The scenario I'll be playing out... ...is that of an amateur nature photographer... ...who got lost in the woods and totally turned around. And as always, my producers have packed my backpack. I don't know what I'm gonna get. So, let's see what we got in here. We got a hat,... a camera,... ...a flash, oh, that's bright. I said, amateur photographer. Can of Amp energy drink,... ...apple,... ...Swiss army knife, and a stick of gum. The first thing I'm gonna wanna do... ...is hike into that treeline. Once there, I can figure out exactly how I'm gonna survive... ...these next five days. As you can see, I started building my shelter. Now I'm using this large, fallen branch,... ...and I'm laying in these cedar branches at an angle. It should keep me nice and toasty. And the idea here is to make sure that we, ow, oh! Oh, fuck, motherfucker! Oh. Okay, let's document that. You see that? That's right under the nail. Oh, day one and I'm already bleeding. Oh, that hurts. One, two, three, oh! Oh, that feels better. And I'll clean myself up, and get back to my shelter. Hello there. Yep, I just finished this tasty soda. I'm gonna show you how to start a fire using a soda can. What you're gonna wanna do,... ...grab some earth, moist dirt,... ...and polish the bottom of the can. I've been doing this one for about a half hour. That's right, a half hour of constant polishing. I'm very good at it. No more fuck ups. What we do is we place the can in the position... ...so that the sun can bounce right off it,... ...find a sweet spot, and let the sun do its work. Oh, oh, oh. Yeah! I have made fire! Nobody cares. I care. Aw, come on, that's cool no matter how you cut it. Ooh, don't wanna burn the camera. All right, more wood, more wood. Hello, fearless leader, still alive? Well, now that I hear your sexy voice,... ...I have something to live for. Hold up, Bill wants to talk to you. Hey, pal, all good? Yep, all settled in, just checking in on you guys. Is that music? Oh, yeah, that's off Terry's laptop. Hey, I gotta tell you, buddy. Duncan set us up in a primo spot. Angie was off getting beer all today,... ..I caught two good sized trout, reeled 'em off,... ...now into Angie's scotch, we're all a little drunk. You know I'm sleeping under a tree, right? Nice, buddy. That's why you're gonna be famous in 11 different countries. From your lips. Hey, put Terry on. Slim! Hey, how's today's footage looking? Pretty good. Some minor fuck ups to cut around. Oh, yeah, that's to be expected. Smartass. Hey, listen, I've hiked into Gull Lake,... ...I've set up a shelter, I'm gonna stay here. So pick up will be the same as drop off, got it? Yeah. All right, go back to your little fancy party. I'll talk to you guys in the morning. And they're worried about me. Something, uh-- Some sort of-- I guess it was a noise, woke me up. I literally felt the Earth shake beneath me. Phew. There's no storm. Guess it was an earthquake. They're rare, but they do happen. I guess there are no aftershocks, so, back in the sack. Well, it's day two on the Canadian Shield. And even with a shelter and a fire,... ...it sure is nice when the sun comes up. Now the sun will be up-- Holy shit. Look at that, look at that, look, up, look. It's like a perfect line right down the lake. Jesus, maybe it had something to do with the sound... ...I heard last night. That's no lightning. Well, we gotta investigate this. From wilderness show to detective show. Follow me. What the fuck? Look at that. There's something in that water. Shit. Looks like we've got a visitor. The important thing is to stay calm. Just back away, get out of Mr. Wolf's path. Wow. That's a large male. He's getting ready to settle in for a long, harsh winter,... ...so, he's ready to pack all the pounds. These fish here are going to be a huge feast for him. That's odd. He just walked right by 'em. I'd love fish tonight. Still, maybe that wolf knows something I don't. Better safe than sorry. Useless piece of shit. Maybe it was a meteor. That could knock out the satellite reception with Terry. I knew your geek facts would come in handy. A meteor. I'm not gonna take a chance on those fish. Let's see if we can trap some small game. Okay, here we go. See that? That right there? Those droppings, most likely rabbit. I hate to kill any animal, but in survival conditions,... ...everything's fair game. That big fat rabbit sure would be tasty right about now. Let's see what we can do. Now, one of the simplest, most effective traps... ...is called the figure four deadfall. And what you need for this is three sticks and a big rock. And it's very very simple. Put a piece of bait just on the tip of stick C over here,... ...our furry little friend will crawl in... ...all curious and hungry, and with any luck,... ...he'll trigger the trap. And that will kill any small animal. All right. Now, let's set this up again so you guys can see... ...how I did it. You take a big rock, it's heavier than it looks,... ...stick A, stick B, stick C. You wanna make sure the grooves and the notches... ...all line up. You want a big rock. Ah, okay. Now for bait. Rabbits love apples. All right. Now we wait. All right. There, don't say I never did anything for you, Angie. Okay, so, this morning I set three traps. Let's see if we got any food. Oh, look at this. Wait for it. It looks like we got some food. I'll tell ya, it'll be nice to get some warm meat... ...in my belly. Ah, can it be? Two out of three, let's eat! So, as you can see, I've moved away from camp. You don't want any dead animals, blood or guts,... ...anywhere near where you're sleeping. You'd invite unwelcome guests like coyotes, wolves, a bear. What you wanna do is take Bugs here,... ...lay him on his back like this. Take your knife, you wanna make a nice, long cut... ...from the breast all the way down to the belly. Once you've made the first cut,... ...you wanna work your thumbs in and under the fur... ...all the way around. Kind of like a giant tangerine. Pull it apart, and when you get down to the leg,... ...you need to snap it, and make a shallow cut... ...all the way around the paw. It should all slide off. Next, a nice slice right from the breastbone... ...down to the belly, this time you wanna get deep. And that reveals rabbit innards. Mmm. Okay, last but not least, sorry, pal, cut off the head. And there you have it, sumptuous wild rabbit ready to cook. Come on! Useless piece of shit. Can you hear me now? Hey, babe. I know things have been really stressful lately. I wanted to give you something to keep you warm... ...and cozy in those freezing cold nights out in the woods. I know that you love it out there but, just,... ...be careful, okay? And we will be here when you get back. And so will these. I love you. Yeah, I'm an ass. So, whatever it is, it's back. That's probably that wolf. Wolves travel in packs, so I'd be lying... ...if I said I wasn't a little nervous. Between a wolf pack and a bear, I'd take a bear any day. Let's have some more food. So, just finished my first rabbit. Delicious. While I could easily eat the second,... ...it's probably a wise idea to save it for tomorrow. After all, my traps may yield nothing... ...and I don't wanna be hungry tomorrow. But I don't wanna keep the rabbit with me here... ...at my shelter, I don't wanna attract any animals... ...like our friend, Mr. Wolf out there. So what I'm gonna do is hang it from a high branch... ...out of reach of any large animals. I didn't have any rope with me. That's where a camera strap comes in handy. It's made of a tightly woven nylon,... ...and cut into thin strips, it makes a terrific rabbit rope. All right, so I've got my homemade rope... ...with a stick tied on the end,... ...and I'll try and get it over that branch... ...and hoist up Mr. Bunny. Oh, almost. One more time, hang on. Yeah, oh, come on. Oh, one more time, hang on. Hang on, we almost got it. Piece of shit! And a three. Ah ha. First try. Okay. All right. Piece of cake. Now, an important and often overlooked aspect... ...of survival is keeping your mind active. The isolation and loneliness can drive many to lose hope. As you know, I like to play chess against myself. Okay, where were we. No idea what time it is. I'm guessing it's the middle of the night. The sky just opened up. But I am staying relatively dry. So is some extra bit of firewood that I've got. I throw a little bit on every so often... ...just to make sure that the fire doesn't die. I'm actually really happy with this shelter. And the fallen tree, and the pine and spruce branches... ...as a roof, I'm gonna stay relatively dry all night. I'll check in with you guys in the morning. Oh! Relatively dry my wet, cold ass. Oh, I hate you guys so much right now... ...and your scientifically designed waterproof tents. What the fuck was that? A little night vision here, Terry. Hey, hey! That sucked. Yeah, between the rain and... ...the wolves? Whatever the fuck that was. I didn't sleep at all. My back is killing me. I'm wet, wet ass. Shut up, geese! Why the fuck did I sign up for this. I hate this, I hate this so much right now,... ...I don't have the words for it. Get it together, get it together, come on. Got a show to do. All right. Fuck. It's day three in the great Canadian Shield. My shelter served my great last night. It shielded me from the rain and the heavy winds. On the breakfast menu this morning, wild-- God dammit. Come on, come on, come on. Come on! Fucking lousy piece of shit! Okay okay okay okay okay. Okay, it couldn't have been the wolf. That'd have to be one crafty fucking wolf. So yesterday I got lucky, nabbed me two delicious rabbits. Let's see if I get as lucky today. Well, it looks like I'm not the only hunter in these woods. Yeah, most likely a bear. Or that wolf, came across my track, slipped over the rock,... ...and just ate whatever I caught. Let's see if we're any luckier with the other traps. This wolf's probably thinking, it's my lucky day. There's food under every rock. Oh, wait a minute. Wait a minute. Maybe he felt sorry for me and left me one... ...seeing as I did all the work. What the hell? You ever seen anything like that before. Yeah, me neither. Where's the phone? What the fuck? Doug, you put the phone here. God dammit. I put it here. Okay. Okay, the phone's gone. I'm losing my fucking mind. I put the fucking phone on the bag. I put it on the bag. That's not how I left it. Oh god, I must be losing my mind. So, someone's clearly messing with me. Rabbit, and then that scream at night. And the traps. Now the sat phone is gone and the chess pieces have moved. You know any wolves who can play chess? There's someone clearly out here. I got two more days. That's it, I'm gonna make my way around the lake... ...and then I'm gonna come up the pickup point. I swear to God, Terry. I swear to God if this is you and Bill and Angie,... ...if this is your way of teaching me a lesson,... ...of fucking with me, oh my God. I will be really really really... ...fucking pissed off at you guys. Son of a bitch, it's actually a really good move. Fuck it can't be Terry. Yeah, this guy's a good chess player, I'll give him that. Try and get out of that, son of a bitch. So, you'll have to cut around this, Terry. My spidey senses are screaming at me... ...to get the hell out of here. I mean, crocodiles, snakes, bears, bring 'em on. But psycho mountain men? I have no interest in tangling with. I'm gonna ditch my fancy digs here,... ...I'm gonna move out onto the cliff,... ...I'll try and get some footage for the show,... ...but, this is starting to feel really messed up. So, let's assume you've been lost in the woods... ...for several days now,... ...and you're confident that a rescue party... ...is out looking for you. In that scenario, you wouldn't wanna be... ...in the dense forest, but out in the wide open... ...where you'd have a greater chance of being seen. This will serve as an ideal spot for my next camp. Just on top of the ridge there is an open area... ...that's clearly visible from the sky... ...as well as the surrounding lakes. And this rock face will serve as a good shelter... ...to shield me from the wind and the rain. Now we just have to make it a little cozier. Let's get to it. Home sweet home. Welcome to my new camp. Let's go scrounge up some food... ...now that we've got our fire going. See any fish down there? Okay. So here I am at the creek,... ...which is not only my new water source,... ...this is also a great spot for finding local food. Small fish, crayfish, frogs, anything buggy. Recognize this? So I'm not alone out here I guess, I got a fan. Oh, this is a great spot for you guys to drop me. And the mystery of the missing cell phone is solved. And buddy decided to take it apart. Well, at least I know I'm not going crazy. This is starting to feel-- Jesus. Are you seeing this? What the fuck? I didn't set that up. I didn't set that up. Check. Hey, asshole! I know you're out there! Well, I like your fucking chess moves! Fucker. So I set a three camera security perimeter. Asshole sets one foot in this camp, smile,... ...you're on fucking camera. Oh fuck me. Oh fuck. Who's idea was northern Ontario? Huh, Terry? Why couldn't it have been Bahamas or Santa Barbara? Surviving Santa Barbara, I'd watch that show. I'm famished. I haven't eaten anything today. I'm gonna turn in early... ...and wake up and try and find some food. I'll try and make it something gross for you, Bill. Good night. Someone was in my camp last night. They tilted the fucking cameras down. Ah no no. That's it, that's it, I'm done. I'm done, I'm fucking done, Terry. This is bullshit. Yeah, I can deal with the outdoors, and the fucking animals,... ...and the weather, but I can't deal with a fucking... ...psycho, chess playing lumberjack, Terry. I'm done, it's over. You're gonna have to cut this together... ...and make it look like five days in post. I'm gathering my fucking equipment... ...and I'm fucking getting the fuck out of here, all right? This is ridiculous. Fuck you! Fucking asshole. All right, guys, that's it. As soon as I'm done here I'll pack up all my gear. Come to scoop me up, okay? It's the best I can do. This one's for you, little bro. Well, I've survived five days here... ...in the forests of northern Canada. While the wilderness can be hash and unforgiving,... ...it can also provide you with... ...all the necessary elements for survival. I've moved myself to an elevated spot... ...with an open area above me,... ...and I've thrown some fresh pine and spruce needles... ...on my fire. That'll create a smoke signal that's visible for miles. And then, the help will arrive. You hear that, help will arrive,... ...so hurry up, guys, get off your lazy asses and come get me. All right, enough is enough. Enough is enough. God dammit! Duncan, is that you? I know you're out here, come on! What the, what the fuck? Okay, get dry, get dry. Okay, okay, okay. Okay, okay, okay, calm down, calm down. Okay. Gotta get to base camp, take things from there. You can do it. Okay, okay, okay. Two, three, come on. Base camp. Ah, fuck, fuck. Terry? Fuck, fuck, fuck. Guys? Bill? Angie? Terry! Terry? Guys? Terry! Terry? Terry? It's me, buddy. It's me, it's me, bro, I'm here. I'm gonna go to the tent, I'm gonna get the med kit,... ...I'll be right back, okay? Hang in there, you hold on. Run. Mayday, mayday, this is an emergency, over. Mayday, we need, mayday, we need help. Can anyone read me, over. We're 20 kilometers from Bearskin Lake. We need an emergency medical evac. Please read me, over. Do you read me! There are people dying, over! Fuck. I don't know who I'm filming this for any more. I figure maybe someone should know. Bill, Angie, and Terry are dead. I'm pretty sure I killed the thing that did it,... I don't know what it was. I'm hundreds of miles from anywhere. In case I don't make it,... ...Jo, I knew the first I saw you, I was a goner. I could survive the North Pole,... ...but I was no match for that smile. Holly, my baby. My baby girl, I love you, I love you so much... ...it hurts my heart. Video message to daddy, take one. Hi, daddy, I just wanted to say I love you... ...and I'll miss you. Don't be afraid, because I know you're the bravest... ...and the strongest, and that you're coming home soon. Okay, Doug... How do we get home? Bearskin Lake. That's where Duncan is. That's 20 clicks. Six hours. Fuck. Go with your gut. Duncan. Duncan! Duncan, thank god. Duncan? Holy shit! Oh shit. Fuck, fuck. At this point we can't say with any accuracy... ...what the scope of the attack is. The initial global air attack... ...targeted the world's largest and most densely populated... ...cities and military installations. New York, Los Angeles, London, Mumbai, Beijing. Get down! Now, the initial global attack only lasted... ...97 minutes, but it managed to cripple most of the world,... ...communication, infrastructure. All we know is that the attack is of unknown origin. Not of this world. Now, the last reports we had... ...were that several alien aircraft were shot down... ...by northern military defense forces. Authorities have been pleading with people... ...to get as far away from the densely populated urban centers,... ...to get as far away from them as possible. And if you managed to escape, and if you can hear me,... ...if you're out there, if you're out there, good luck. Major cities. Jo. At this point we can't say with any accuracy... ...what the scope of the attack is. The initial global air attack targeted... ...the largest and most densely populated-- You gotta be alive. These will me to the channels. I'll have to figure it out from there. Hey! Duncan? What they hell are you doing in my boat? It's me, Doug Woods. Where's the rest of your crew? They're all dead. Dead? What the hell's going on? I don't have time to explain, just get on the boat... ...and we'll talk while we're moving. Mr. Woods. I really need you to get out of my boat. Duncan, I'm not arguing with you,... ...just get on the fucking boat. You can just-- Fuck. Checkmate. There's a place just off the coast In the middle of nowhere Deep inside the hills Sitting silently lives the lonely, the lonely gunman Counting up his kills Oh yeah When he was young he dreamed of a life Of growing old and happy But he was so naive 'Cause you can never shoot a gun Pull the trigger With your heart on your sleeve Oh no He's come to terms with a life spent alone No room for love in a heart made of stone He made the choice oh so long ago Between a woman and a smoking gun There was a time he fell in love And he was happy With a woman soft and kind But every time he closed his eyes And pulled the trigger He left a bit of himself behind Oh yeah Now he's haunted by the eyes Of the lives he's taken As they were making their last stands There is no amount of time That can wash away The blood from his hands Oh no |
