You'd get a cabin in good condition, a machete, and a small amount of food and water but not enough to get through the week. Your cabin will not have electricity. You would be able to call for help if bitten but would not win.



when you say "good condition" are you talking about a cabin with doors to keep the snakes out and walls that can withstand a juicy fart?

if so, yes

it would be better just to go catch 50 of them in about 2 days and make $1.5m instead of staying one week on that shite island.

no. No it wouldn't.

But shite I'd be willing to get a group of guys together and take a trip down there in snake proof gear to catch a few hundred of them. Anybody in?

Anyone saying yes is lying

$1 Million for seriously risking your life for a week? Not a chance. OP should raise the reward to like $100 Million. If there really is one of those snakes for every square meter, id say chances of getting bit are greater than 50% unless you're chuck norris or some shite

Its not about whether youre scared of snakes or not. Its whether you're scared of death because of a snake.

So snakes (hundreds of them) with venom that MELTS the skin then you die dont scare you as much as spiders or lightning?

I'd do it.

I'd just post up on one of those rocks at the end of the island where there are no snakes and kill them with my machete if they stepped my way

You have a machete and live in a cabin. You are given water and food but apparently not enough to survive which kinda doesn't make sense because it's only a week. You can live w/o food for a week and water for 3-4 days or more. I would lock myself in the cabin and just sleep. After 3 days drink some water. Easy money if you ask me.

In a heartbeat.

I would not only do the challenge. They'd need to bring a bigger boat to pick me up because of all the snakes I'd be returning with.

I'd do it for a month, probably even for a year. I love survival games and really don't give a shite about snakes. I was raised in the swamp!

I was prepared to say yes to almost any proposition then I heard the word snakes. I'm out. Even if I had a guarantee I'd live I'd probably pass. I'm not spending a week of my life in an actual nightmare.
