    "Walking the Amazon": Ed Stafford

    Anybody else read this book? Ed Stafford is a pretty wild dude. I enjoyed it.

    I've seen everything he's done on tv (amazon docu, 'into the unknown' and the short series on his 60 days on an island), I am a huge fan of him.

    Haven't read the book yet bute sure will sometime soon!

    I also saw Walking the Amazon on TV as well as the 60 Day on the island. Very good.

    There's a documentary on YouTube of him doing that. He's lucky to be alive.

    Edit: oops I was wrong. Just went and looked for it and it must have been taken down. I watched it a long time ago.

    There were definitely a lot of risks. The red zone, indigenous people, snakes, caimon.....on and on.
