A Costa Rican getaway - as far removed from everyday living as you can imagine: lush rainforests and deserted tropical beaches. Marooned on Costa Rica's Osa Peninsula, Les Stroud must cope with deadly snakes, enormous spiders, land-crabs and scorpions, on top of keeping hydrated in the intense humidity and relentless heat.

LES STROUD'S SURVIVORMAN is an innovative survival series starring Canadian survival expert Les Stroud, who puts himself to the ultimate test by surviving alone in some of the world's most extreme wilderness environments.
Stranded without a crew and equipped with only minimal gear, Les documents every moment of his experience using a unique, self-operated camera system, making the series one of the most authentic survival programs ever produced.
Each challenge lasts up to a week, pushing both his physical endurance and mental resilience to the edge.
In each environment, Stroud demonstrates practical, real-world survival skills such as building shelter, finding and purifying water, making fire and sourcing food through foraging and hunting.
The show does not shy away from failure: viewers see what works, what doesn't, and the consequences of every decision.
