In filming this show he's had to fight an alligator with a fishing rod, got in a plane crash, was taken in as a suspected foreign spy, and jumped into the Amazon River. And it's a great show if only because it's not "HERE'S THIS MYSTERIOUS CREATURE WE NEVER EVER LET YOU SEE", he regularly catches the shit he's going after. He was not taken in as a suspected spy during the show, he just went back to the country where it had happened years prior. But yes great show, only thing that bothers me is that he constantly states how his life is in danger when he's landing the fish. | ||

When he caught that colossal tigerfish in the Congo how it wouldn't recover and they ended up eating it and he was so disappointed that he couldn't release it. Reminded me of Rex Hunt's fishing adventures. But he's had like 2 episodes in Queensland in the Fitzroy river and what a coincidence it runs through my town. My uncle and I caught a small bull shark in it. And I like how he explains the local culture behind each monster. Like the big mouthed creature stealing kids of the creek banks in Japan - and it was a massive Salamander. Ugh so glad that there's a thread for this. yeah this guy has a great job, gets to see amazing stuff, and respects and takes interest in whatever culture, myths and info surrounds his goal for that episode. it's really great. i never seek out this show, but when i see it i end up watching a few episodes in a row | ||
