There it is. For a million dollars, one would think that after all these seasons someone would learn to do a bit of research on this sort of thing. They've had chickens on and off since Season I when Jena named theirs Breakfast, Lunch, and dinner (ok those happened to be all hens, iirc). Same with fire, was Jane the only contestant in all these years to think some fire making skill might come in handy? And so many along the way didn't know how to swim or use a sling shot or how to build a shelter and like, duh, to turn the opening away from the prevailing winds and rains. And their attire! Sure, let's wear poorly made clothes so that they fall apart first thing and did you get a load of Ghetto's shoes?!? At least the men have sense enough to put on a shirt and pants when it gets cold while the bikini (or bra and panties - what, we needed swimwear on the beach?!?) clad women are clueless. Most of it is common sense, but for a million dollars, I'd have at least rented every season's video and tried to learn from past mistakes. Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it and Mark Burnett plays off that every year.
There was someone else in seasons past who made fire with eyeglasses. I can't remember who it was but I do remember it happening.
That’s like the Amazing Race. People on there should know the things they are going to have to do.
Like, you better get good with driving a stickshift because it could cost you the race.
Learn how to read maps.
Bring a compass.
Etc.
It always amazes me when people come on these reality shows that have been on for years so ill prepared.
