Do you have what it takes to be the last one standing? Naked and Afraid: Last One Standing is coming back for its second season. Featuring many fan-favorite all-stars, including Ky Furneaux and Bulent Gurcan , this competition may be the most brutal yet. “I think it’s going to be bigger and crazier and way more skill-based than last season,” Furneaux, the female competitor with the highest assigned PSR (primitive survival rating), told DECIDER via Zoom.
“Not only do you have to work with people, but you’re working against the other people,” Gurcan said, speaking of the unique competitive nature of the challenge, which he went on to call an “eye-opening” experience. While Naked and Afraid may just seem like a less-than-glamorous reality TV show, many people don’t realize just how real it is. “We are the baby seal being chased by the Orca while the documentary crew watches on,” Furneaux explained.
“There’s no interfering with the experience unless your life is threatened out there.” Ahead of the season premiere, DECIDER sat down with the two five-timers to learn a little more about why they became survivalists, their craziest experiences in the wild, and what it’s really like stripping down bare on-camera. DECIDER: What made you decide to become a survivalist on the show, and what made you want to come back for this Last One Standing season? Ky Furneaux : I’ve always been an outdoors person, and I was an outdoor guide when I was much younger, tak.
