The stakes keep getting higher in the Tasmanian wilderness on SBS’s “Alone Australia.” As the remaining survivalists push their physical and mental limits, the question isn’t just if someone will tap out – it’s when. In Episode 8, airing Wednesday, we see the toll that isolation and deprivation are taking on the competitors.
Physical boundaries are tested as the harsh realities of their environment set in. Will innovation be the key to survival? Some participants turn to new tactics, hoping to find a winning strategy against the relentless Tasmanian wilderness.
But Mother Nature isn’t the only challenge. A routine medical check-up brings a whole new level of stress to the competition. For one survivalist, the results could mean an unexpected and abrupt end to their time in the wild. Tune in to SBS on Wednesday, May 7th at 7:30 PM AEST to see who makes it through and who’s forced to head home.
