some of the harshest terrains of the world. Chasing thunderstorms, escaping fiery
volcanoes and scavenging deadly delicacies, he will share some invaluable survival
strategies all along the extreme conditions.

presenters of MAN WOMAN WILD will take on some of the most forbidding and remote locations
around the world, and will attempt to stay alive with only one gear - a knife. The week
will be packed with more action as Bear Grylls, in his new series RUNNING WILD will take

elements of nature in DUAL SURVIVAL.



The weekends will be filled with thrill and intrigue as Nigel Marven will count down
the deadliest snakes in different locations around the world in TEN DEADLIEST SNAKES. I
SHOULDN'T BE ALIVE will bring real life situations in which people who lived to tell their
story of horror, recall their tryst with near death experiences.



Be it gravity defying base jumping, incredible ice diving or surviving in the wild;
these heroes will have you asking for more. Join the real action every night at 10 pm with
Discovery Real Heroes.
