Oh look at the freaking Amazon! Look at this murky water. Oh, this is beautiful. Oh, you got a thumbnail. It's going to calm down your thumbnail. Good enough. Amazon, the biggest river in the world. They said I could take it. Oh, it's like so fermented. Oh my gosh. We're only poaching for dolphin kisses and dolphin cuddles. Headed into the Amazon today, getting some supplies. I feel like the only thing they sell here is plantains, like just an abundance of plantains, man. Look at all of them. Alright, everyone's eating their fish head stew. I would not mind a 7 AM fish head stew, but we uh, yeah, maybe this is the session for another day. This is an amazing city to explore, and I can't wait to do it like on our day off here, but today is about going to fight some alligators in the Amazon. I am stoked. 'Sorry, what did you find here? Oh my God, he's holding on for dear life.' They said I could take him, like we could have him. I think so. He's ours now. 'You're coming to be an Amazon cat.' This is Larry. He's taking us into the Amazon. Oh yeah, he's originally from the Amazon, yeah, right through Amazon River, David from the Amazon. And so you were born in the Amazon, and you're telling me you're used to growing up eating things like monkeys and jaguars and snakes. 'But I ate so many kinds of animals. We're animals, but right now, not now. Let's protect the Amazon. Let's protect it.' So we're just gonna go see. We're not gonna eat anything in the Amazon. We're gonna grab a tuk-tuk. We're gonna head to a boat. Yeah, yeah, sounds good, bro. We're gonna take this cat. We have a new member. Look like the baby ocelot. Here's a Peruvian. That dog, just that guy, just squirted him. Oh, he feels weird, like a pig. Oh, it feels so weird. Oh yeah, 'You're a good girl.' I get a hairless cat when you get a hairless Peruvian dog. Amazon thread. 'Does it ever rain enough that they'll get stuck?' Uh, yeah, most. I'm also trying to get stuck here. Yeah, I don't know if you have the facilities for this. This is crazy city. These towns built on stilts, those stilts don't look very strong either. Ah, what are they? They don't have earthquakes or nothing. They don't need to be that strong. Little people, little stilts. Oh, you look at that. It's my first time seeing the Amazon River up close and in person. Yes, here we freaking are. They all right, let's go, my friend. I was kind of tempted by the mystery juice over there, that white stuff. No, this one. The white, ah, this is masato. Masato, what is masato? Yuca. I've had yuca before. Smash it, okay, and then just to get fermentation, the lady, the girl just picked the yuca into the mouth, then chewing, half mix it with saliva, and then it spit off in the bathroom. They chewed that. They do that. Did she do that? 'Can you, some of the people, they do that.' I don't know how, how is she prepared? 'I'll drink it regardless. People love to drink it.' Okay, uh, the permutations are really good. This is the main breakfast. Yeah, let me, I think she, you know, she didn't do like that with saliva because some people are now, they're gonna make sugar canes. I've heard of, I've heard of that before, um, in Colombia, like they have an alcohol called chicha, and they used to do that. They would chew it up and spit it, and that would ferment. Contours, easy, very cheap. Wow, that's a big glass. Holy, I guess it's made from yuca and sugarcane, uh-huh. That's yes, yeah, this is a local drink. Oh, it's like so fermented, it's like very, it's like sour. Can I try it? Yes, of course. It's like very different than whatever. It's like almost milky and sour and sweet, and sugar caney. It's one of the most interesting things I've ever tried. I don't think Alice is into it. Yeah, it's kind of, I like it. It's sugar. There's so many local drinking jewels there. All these birds from diamonds only brought from the fruits. Yeah, I, if every time I see a drink that I don't know what it is, I have to try it. I'm a connoisseur of fine mystery juices. Boat time. Okay, the water is coming from the mountains of Ecuador. The mountains of Ecuador, Ecuador, from it's uh, 305 kilometer distance to go to Ecuador, and the water is blowing up. This is the main gate to go up river, down river, also you can go through here. You can reach your emails by boats, five days by speed, a slow boat. If you take a boat that takes five days to get to that place, do they have like spaces you can sleep on it, or do you have max hammocks? That sounds quite enjoyable, I guess. A slow boat with a hammock is a strong independent woman who don't need no one's hand. Cool mate. All right, watch out what's happening, watch your head. All right, good stuff. We're kind of, I feel like we're like trapped into this little capsule thing, but if it's not raining, we're trying to go out there. Oh yeah, there we go. I'm gonna go to the front of the Titanic and say I'm the king of the world. Oh, look at the freaking Amazon, look at this murky water, that's what I like to see. Oh, this is beautiful. Oh, you got a thumbnail. All right, stand up for a sec. Calm down your thumbnail. Good enough. It's only a little wet, but like dude, I uh, so wet right now. It is all good. I did not come to the Amazon to be comfortable. I want to be woken up in the middle of the night with spiders crawling on my, we're face on, the biggest river in the world, the Amazon River. Um, debatably there's actually much speculation on what makes the longest river in the world. I'm not gonna get into it. The Amazon River has like, carries more water than like the next eight rivers combined. I'm not a water ographer, but I did some research on uh, on Reddit. Alice is a marine biologist. It kind of helps having someone who knows like a little bit. She can be like, I know all the technical names. Just subdue it, and then we're gonna cook it over an open flame. We're gonna eat the bastard. Right here is like it for four, six, seven kilometers. Oh my god, that is really wide. Right, we are in the savannah lower land. Every year the water covers all this. When the water covers all the land, there becomes almost like for 20 and 40 kilometers width, white. Ain't this spot cute? It's like a whole little town out here. I guess this is where we're staying, but this is a whole little Amazonian town. I can't wait to go explore. Let's go. Libertad Jungle Lodge. It's cute. They got chickens too. Yes. Does the water come up this high? And sometimes the water, they come up, just floating these, sometimes really. It'll be, I don't know, I don't know. That's why we built another X's bungalow. Yeah, more like the, this one's higher. Yeah, so just to be safe. Yes, it doesn't craze. Cool. Awesome. Oh, look at these. These are beautiful. Thank you. You know, full open concept washroom. This is lovely. This is very cozy. The only thing you're allowed to smoke out here is ayahuasca. None of this [ __ ] you don't even smoke, I don't know how you do it. Oh my god. Now brush them. It's like dragon fruit because look at that naked dragon scale. That's your passion for maracuya. Thank you so much, man. I'm gonna try the mystery food because I just want to film it. Is it good? Yeah, it's really good. It's like, but this one. But um, the texture is so like mushy, but I actually really like that. Okay, enjoy it. Thank you so much, man. Look at this meal. Catfish and rice and salad, potatoes, passion fruit juice. The only downside to this fruit is I gotta spit it out every two seconds after I, I eat some. It's similar to guayabana but phenomena granola. I cannot write. Oh, I love guanabana juice. So good. Amazonian catfish. Let's go. How is that? Fantastic, really. So good. So fresh. So like tender. It's not fishy at all, like really. It's like scaly, like a fish would be, but not like a really fishy taste. So it's like, it's almost like pork like. Really, I'm the worst at describing food, but that's amazing. That's like a 9 out of 10. All right, the sun's cleared up. I guess we're going on a dolphin hunting trek so we can have food for tonight, but uh, I think that's, that's quite aggressive. I would just be keen to swim with them and take pictures with them. So maybe we could convince them otherwise, but yeah, we're going to see some dolphins. Should I just start shaking it right now? This is absolutely insane, this thin little corridor we're going down. Just going deeper into the Amazon tributaries. It, it's absolutely insane, the amount of little water bodies that connect into bigger water bodies that connect into bigger water bodies that feed the Amazon. It's, it's just so much water. You can't put into words. I was thinking I needed sunscreen, but we're pretty nicely shaded here. We'll find out later. Yeah, exactly. Oh my god, you're just like, oh my gosh, you just missed it. It jumped from tree to tree. To watch him, watching me. Whoa. Oh my goodness, keep going, buddies. Oh hello. Happy guys. These monkeys are so darn tiny. I've never seen such tiny monkeys. That's why they call them squirrel monkeys. They're literally basically the squirrels of the trees. Squirrels live in trees as well. I stand corrected. That was a great jump, dude. They are super hard to spot, man. Like, that iguana's very close to us. Yeah, it just looks part of the tree. That was so cool. They wanted just to save it. Quick jumping down. Yeah. So we can't see because it's in the water. Is that why they stay close to the water just in case they have to escape from? Right, okay. Also another way is because they can find a lot of vegetation here. They eat like a fungus, mushrooms, eggs. That makes sense. Also sometimes, in the community. Oh, they eat the community chickens. Those darn iguanas. Oh my lord. That's why he needs that long motor to get through this kind of stuff. Come on. Yeah, bro. Good job. Oh yeah, look, this is be important. It's actually very pointy. Yeah, expectation gains, uh, hellbeaver animal hair, people. Beavers. Manatee will come down these little streams as well, right? You know, and now the life for the manatees in dangerous species. Yes, by a key to this resource for manatee. But yeah, manatees prefer kind of like narrower channels and rivers and stuff. I just, I thought they're like an ocean fish. Um, nor, they actually live in brackish environments, usually brackish, where they can eat. Raw dish means like, don't actually eat it. He said don't eat it. I just, I just put, I just dug my teeth in it a little. Don't worry. I like this little uh, little chill spot we got going on. Right, it's so nice. Oh, we got like this weird ass beetle coming towards you. What? Right, right back here. I didn't, I didn't realize like, well like, I should have realized just like there's just bugs everywhere. And not just, but it's not just like mosquitoes or ants. It's just all these bugs are gonna be all over you the entire time. And it's, it's pretty cool. So, so many different like, beetles and crickets and butterflies. We're in the dolphin spot. We're taking a cover, and we're just gonna just gonna post up until we see some dolphins. Oh my god. Yeah, he was big. We just posted up dolphin poaching. Hoping one wants to come say hello to us and give us a kiss on the nose. Dolphin poaching, yeah. [ __ ] off. Poach you instead. We're only poaching for dolphin kisses, yeah, and dolphin cuddles. Exactly. There are two types. One is the grey dolphin. Another is the pink ribbed dolphin. The two types of dolphin come to this place. This is [ __ ] dope. They're quick. You can see it move it. Oh my god. Here's your child stick. That is a bright sun. We're getting out here to watch the beautiful sunset. An Amazonian sunset. I am pumped. I say we go pirate this vessel over here and reclaim it from the birds. Okay. Enjoy your cruise, birdies. Oh well. Bye. Boy, you little bastards. Just look at it. Good stuff, right? Not one complaint in the world. Look at that big ol' stump. I want to go on that. Whoa. The boats are rocking. Absolutely golden hour right now. Look at that beauty. Amazonian sunset. Do you have any uh, remarks for the first day? Damn. Beat my expectations. Damn girl. Damn. Amazon, 100 out of 10. Is that possible? 100 out of 10. Yeah, that's, that's like, that's like a thousand percent. Now that sun's about to dissolve into the trees, and uh, hopefully we'll see it tomorrow for another great day of exploration. I don't even know we're doing tomorrow. I read the itinerary, sounded cool, forgot it ever since, but that's the way to go about it because every day we're doing something different that I was not expecting so, very exp, very stoked to be in the Amazon for two more days because day one, been an absolute blessing. Yes."
