In this episode, we spoke to intrepid explorer Benedict Allen who has nearly died nine times throughout his career - including when he was threatened by gold miners, contracted deadly malaria and was shot at by Pablo Escobar's hitmen. Benedict relives his experience of becoming the first person to cross the Amazon Basin and getting lost alone in the rainforest for weeks without food, shelter or water. This desperate situation led him to make one of the toughest decisions of his life and moulded him into the explorer we meet today.
