Equally as tough is the competition, as Ed goes head to head against former British Royal Marines, South Korean special forces, endurance athletes and survival instructors. Ed may be able to survive almost anywhere or anything, but so can these extraordinary people.
With speed as important as survival, who will be the first to escape these lethal landscapes?
