I lost quite a bit of money in Alaska this year.
And when I think of when I've been on this trip, I keep thinking like, how far would
that money have gone at this place?
Is there a lot of gold in there?
No.
Seriously.
One gram per car. Holy.
That's really good gold.
From what we've seen so far, it's pretty untapped.
What's that compared to the Yukon?
Four times better.
Really. That's probably the best ground we're seeing on this trip.
Parker discovers that the gold in South America.
Looks like a lot.
Maybe unlike anywhere else in the world.
90% of mining is exploration.
So we get do 90. Parker's trails before we potentially got one site that was worthy of
our genuine interest.
Yes. I'll see you in 2070.
Dan Levy is probably is the one with the most potential.
Whoa, 50 grand.
Oh, I think we're in the right place.
That's wild that there's that much gold here.
We saw more gold in South America than I expected.
Wow. There you go.
We're stoked. And it was just like, out of this world.
Beautiful. Yeah.
It's a good pace.
Oh, my.
Seeing gold is something which strikes to your very core, and there's absolutely no
doubt about it. Goodness me, it's borderline spiritual.
I would say they're quite chunky bits.
No.
I mean, I've been getting more and more excited whenever we were finding gold.
Look at that mucho holo.
I don't know if I could call it a gold fever.
Wow. Loads of it.
I would have never imagined that gold is just everywhere.
But I still think finding good gold is fantastic.
Watch your head. We're definitely getting some spiders and snakes in this, Tyler.
If it was easy, there'd be no gold there.
In order to find the best gold rich ground to invest in.
Welcome to the jungle.
Parker explores the remotest places that bringing him and the team.
We have.
A broom. Get it out with a.
Broom face to face.
Do not.
Drop that on my foot.
With some of the most dangerous creatures.
We don't have fish with teeth in Alaska.
In South America.
Without a doubt, there's still some just extremely phenomenal ground out there.
And, you know, we're not going to find it driving around the Yukon in Alaska.
We're going to find it next to a caiman infested pond in the middle of the jungle.
Hey, Dan? Yes?
I think I found a dragon.
What?
In Peru's jungles.
It's the dragon. Parker and the team encounter Caiman, which can grow up to 13ft
in length.
That is so cool.
I like the jungle. It just doesn't give.
And must avoid over 30 species of venomous snakes.
Expect to find a shoe shop.
What's that? Which is the biggest venomous snake in the world.
Shoo!
Shoo. Shoo!
Shoo. That's really aggressive.
Aggressive?
Yeah. It will chase you.
What sort of size are these?
Shoe shops.
They can grow up to four meters.
Like four meters.
12. 14ft. Scary.
Yeah. They're a big snake Central.
Yeah.
There's a lot of snakes in Peru.
But it's the smallest jungle creatures that caused the greatest concern.
Almost anywhere we go, there were spiders.
There's centipedes.
Is that a baddie?
I mean, I wouldn't want with it.
Caterpillars. Oh.
Hello.
What?
Get it off me.
Let me feel.
There it is.
Get it off me. Oh, yeah.
Dan? Dan?
Don't want to touch it.
South America is home to the world's deadliest caterpillar.
The lonomia oblique.
Nicknamed the assassin Caterpillar, one brush of its venomous spikes can kill a
human.
They look beautiful, but they're dangerous.
Dan Cohen is getting closer to you now.
Dan?
Daniel. Where is it?
It's gone. Insects is a major concern in this situation.
And the team's biggest worry.
Dude. What?
We just got to be a little bit on the lookout with the old flip flops on parasites.
Is there something in Parker's foot?
I haven't checked it. It's a possibility.
So.
So why are you going to stick your hand up his ass?
As the team treks through the Bolivian jungle.
Parker thinks he's picked up an unwanted visitor.
There's something burrowed its way into my foot.
Diego, do you think it's something alive in there?
I need to open it first.
Okay.
Once you open, it will you know?
Yeah.
What could it be? Diego.
A parasite.
I'm scared. What if it's like a big old worm that's, like, that long?
So much comes with the jungle.
I want you to chop my whole foot off.
Honestly?
Yeah. I only want to do what's necessary.
I don't think it's necessary.
I'd rather have no foot than something living in there.
You know, you have to check yourself regularly for ticks for parasites.
And check my scrotum daily when I'm in the jungle.
Twice, Twice a day, actually, because I'm happy to lose a foot.
I'm not happy to lose the testes.
We're putting our bodies through the mill so that environment can be dangerous.
One of the most feared jungle parasites is the botfly, whose larvae burrow into human
hosts and grow beneath their skin.
Hey, you. Is it off?
Is it in your pants? I think.
It might be in.
My trousers.
Ah, it's in my trousers.
What is it? Something stinging me.
Take your pants off.
Certainly insect wise, I'm not.
You know, the idea of having a botfly sort of poking its little antennae out the back of
my head is not one that I'm really massively keen on.
Oh, man.
Do it. Can we see it?
Hold on, hold on.
Where if.
If it goes in my.
Plants and starts.
Biting my nuts. I'm not going to be happy.
I don't see it.
I'm not showing you any more.
What do you want me to do, Dan?
Well, I don't want you staring.
Underwear down knowing we're.
Gonna be staring at my ring.
You think I want.
To look at your ass?
You know you're going to end up in some sticky situations, Dan.
I'd rather it bit by bit bit my.
Arse than you staring at my.
You think I want to look at your ass?
How does that make any sense?
I'm offering to look at your nasty ass.
You probably have swamp ass going on right now in the jungle.
That's right. Okay. And you're getting mad at me.
You know, you feel a bit anxious.
You're saying that like I want to look at your ass.
Well, I think you might do.
I'm not sure of your motives, and I think that happens for a reason.
You're a bit anxious, You're a bit nervous, but I think that's just your body telling you
to get ready because there's.
There's some serious action coming your way.
