Thread: The Science Channel: Survivalist and Wilderness Medical Expert Needed

  1. #1

    Default The Science Channel: Survivalist and Wilderness Medical Expert Needed

    Aug-07 - Hello, I am casting a new show for the The Science Channel. The show is a wilderness survival show with a group of uniquely skilled individuals. We are still looking for someone with exceptional survival/hunter/wilderness skills, as well as a wilderness medical expert. Would anyone from the forum with these qualities be willing to talk to me or be willing to point me towards people with these skill sets? We are on a tight schedule and are looking to cast people in the next two weeks. I can be reached at maureengalaviz "at" gmail "dot" com

    Good luck with your search. This forum has produced at least one "star" for these type shows. Hopefully there will be a second.

    It might help if you disclosed roughly the location. Someone might have 34 years as a professional hunter in Alaska. But not know squat about Texas or Florida hunting. Same with plant Identification......it is somewhat regional.

    I don't drink my own urine and I don't go running around the woods naked. I guess that means I'm not a good fit for TV.

    I do believe Rick sent you an E-mail. I would like to give a character reference for Rick. Yes, he's definitely a character! Also, if you pay him enough he might just do the show in his hong...just sayin'. Something to think about....

    This seems like an awesome opportunity, unfortunately being of young age is not helping xD. I'd probably be raring to go after watching Survivorman and Survivorman 10 days over 3 times, I'd love to get out into that world.

    She knows,.......... comments of this nature are greeted with long bouts of uproarious laughter, with coughing, choking and leaving the room...

    Where did it say we need to drink urine?

    That's kind of gross, but if I was about to die... I would.

    I get asked this question a lot: "Hey man, can you make my wife disappear?" I like to answer: "You bet, just give me your credit cards, I'll drop her off at the shopping mall and she'll be gone for quite awhile...guaranteed.....
