What happens when you put two complete strangers - sans clothes - in some of the most extreme environments on Earth? 14 survivors plunged into the South China Sea and became stranded on the barren western coast of the Philippines Palawan islands. The group will try and survive for 40 days and 40 nights.

No one said life off-the-grid would be easy. The "wolf-pack" is unlike any other family in America. There's a storm coming in fast and all the animals need to be moved to safety. Rhain has dealt with storms before — on boats or even in Browntown — but here, it's an entirely new challenge.

Struggling homesteaders across the country are turning to the Raneys to teach them the necessary skills to survive the wilderness. Flooding, wildfires, faulty engineering… These homesteads are on the verge of collapse. Now, the Raneys must save a homestead from one of California's deadliest wildfires. Can they beat the heat or will they feel the burn?

Buying diesel trucks headed for the scrap heap and giving them new leases on life has turned into big business for the Diesel Brothers. Now, they're taking on new — extreme — challenges. On Memorial Day, May 27 of 2019, Heavy D of the Diesel Brothers successfully landed a record-setting jump over a flying airplane in the Monster Jam BroDozer truck at Wendover Airfield, a must-see, gear-grinding, stunt of epic proportions!

This is gold mining at its most extreme. Gold miners Dakota Fred and his son Dustin are determined to make a fortune no matter the risk. But to find the big gold payout, they’ll put their lives on the line by diving deep beneath the raging waters of one of Alaska’s wildest creeks.

Four generations of Kilchers live off the land that Yule and Ruth Kilcher homesteaded outside Homer, Alaska over 80 years ago. The family resides on over 640 acres of the Alaskan wilderness, living off the resources the land provides. They must hunt, garden, gather, raise livestock and work as a family in order to survive Alaska's uncontrollable elements.

Street racers in the Big Easy band together to prove they are the fastest in the country. The NOLA racers are storming Texas to battle the best competitors the country has to offer. The biggest bets and the craziest crashes are right here.
