Meet the Cast of Naked And Afraid XL Season 5
This season 14 survivalists will test their skills on both land and sea.
In the most grueling challenge yet, participants strive to survive a treacherous 40 days and 40 nights on an isolated island completely detached from civilization. Arriving by boat, four teams of three begin their adventures dropped in the brutal South China Sea, forcing them to swim through shark-infested waters to sun-scorched deserted islands of jagged rock beaches and impenetrable cliffs.
While all 14 survivalists bring well-tested skillsets, only all-star duo Laura Zerra and Jeff Zausch have already battled through Naked and Afraid 21-day and XL 40-day challenges before. This season will push this elite duo beyond anything they’ve ever attempted, a whopping 60-days surviving the elements. First, Jeff and Laura will take on a 21-day Naked and Afraid challenge and, if they survive, immediately launch into the brutal 40 days of XL.
Follow Laura and Jeff’s monumental challenge as they attempt the unprecedented feat in an all new season of the Discovery Go digital series NAKED AND AFRAID: SAVAGE.
