Not sure on the name but it was the guy who is usually shoeless...His partner would have none of it.

Several problems.
Diseases we do not even imagine exist, and that would kill us very rapidly.
Very scarce in food, and you have to know what you can eat.
On land,save in open areas of wich the are several, you cannot walk 500 metres without getting to a river or some other obstacle, and it will take you hours to walk those metres.
Very tough people live there. Some good, some bad. Whatever happens to you stays there.

Those shows are crap, i am sorry. It is easy to survive in the midst of a film cw full of specialists of everything around you or at call.
I know,was just joking...I know from experience that trying to move a short distance through a real jungle is taxing enough on your body,let alone trying to live in one full time.
Bear Gryls ruined it for the others lol...Give Dual Survival a look though when you get a chance.
Exception to the indians, "amazonians" are called creolos, have jungle lore, of course, but all their life is lived near rivers. Their mode of travel is by boat, only.
Even in Manaus ( a huge city of millions ) - they have an airport of course - you have no way to levae the city by car for any considerable distance or to any "civilized place "
It is a completely diifferent world than what we imagine. That is why i say it is a mythical experience. Green, green, and water and you.
The disease and food is something to deal with trying to survive any where.
I survived in the woods in florida for close to a week. Granted its nothing like the amazon or jungle but still isn't easy when your a young teen and all you got is a small pocket knife

I see where you are coming from, Doomiedee, but as you say, Florida is nowhere near the far west mntality you still have in the Amazon.
One night we stopped in a small locality where there was a feast and there was a kind of wooden saloon...there is no description possible of the characters you see there, al with machetes and guns and you aboslutely know it is the real thing...

And even so, it is far from being the most dangerous place on earth ( forgetting several cities, of course ).
That honour belongs, imho, to the Darien, in Panama. It still is a badge of guts to go there.
If you are a foreigner, Panamian authorities won't even let you enter from the panamian side.
