Survivalist and explorer, Ed Stafford, heads to the wilds of China to face off the planet’s top survival experts in a real-life race to get out of the country’s most hostile environments. In every episode, Ed faces a different and equally skilled opponent in the race to be the first to reach a pre-determined extraction point, on a journey fraught with danger. From the huge cliffs and bamboo forests of Bashan to the mountains and waterfalls of Yunnan Province, he may be able to survive almost anywhere or anything, but so can these extraordinary competitors. With speed as important as survival, who will be the first to escape these lethal landscapes in a country with some of the world’s most extreme climates?
