Over 5000 miles from the UK on a remote island in the Pacific Ocean a group of 14 men and 14 women embarked on an extremely challenging adventure. As part of Channel 4’s 'The Island with Bear Grylls' the participants were abandoned on the treacherous island filled with terrifying beasts such as caiman crocodiles and deadly scorpions. As if this wasn’t bad enough, they had to fend for themselves for 6 weeks cut off from civilisation.
