From what I remember, he filmed most of it himself, once he arrived at certain locations, after month's of travel, he would meet with his camera crew, or see his wife, and kid's. At certain mile marker's in his journey. I attempted to research that name with no success. I know that he was picked for the crew because of his stamina. They commented that they usually hire, or train athletes, ext.. But, this guy, although not very big, could go for day's..relentless. I don't recall the channel. It was about two week's ago. I don't think he was American. Most of the filmed part's were his training. The sailing, survival, ext.. He filmed the actual "Jungle" footage. Another clue perhaps... I remember when he caught his gear on fire, the only thing he saved was his GPS and Satt. He couldn't survive in such extreme conditions, so he called his wife. He had taken pictures of all his essential gear before he left.. She was able to re-supply him. Most of the time he was alone until he reached certain point's... If anyone can help me put this rest.... They shall receive a cigar prize:D
