Cody Lundin was loved by the fans of the show. The barefoot survival expert, Lundin perfectly demonstrated what it was like to live in the wilderness. But Lundin’s tendency to go barefoot proved to be his Achilles heel. In 2014, things changed for Lundin when he was asked by the producers to fall into freezing water to purposely get hypothermia. The same season the series fired Lundin which left him heartbroken. Talking about the show, Lundin commented,
“Although I’ll miss elements of the show, what I’ll miss the most are my fans and the opportunity to teach – on a global level – life-saving skills, indigenous culture, and values of integrity and respect toward our natural world.”
