September 2009.
To Whom It May Concern,
Teaching survival skills has been my passion and my profession for a very long time. I take this lifestyle choice seriously and strive to give the very best training to my students both in and out of the field. I live my profession, and continuously refine my self-reliant homestead to embody the most effective combination of ancient and modern technologies designed to do more with less. I am acutely aware that my training may some day help decide a student’s fate during a real survival scenario. Unfortunately, even many so-called survival instructors are not burdened by this all important responsibility, (let alone television producers) and over the years, I’ve witnessed hundreds of examples of crappy or flat out dangerous instruction.
Please know that I have little if any control over how Dual Survival is ultimately concepted, produced, and edited. While all production work involves the efforts of many talented individuals, very few if any of the players involved with this show have any experience in outdoor survival skills. It wouldn’t be a stretch to surmise that the majority of the top urban people involved have not even camped outside. So what happens when “city slickers” design an outdoor survival show? Only time will tell.
I have and will try my best to make the show as authentic and professional as possible – while still being fun to watch! I have and will continue to push this agenda personally and professionally, using the talent and clout of an entertainment attorney as well to further these wishes. Regardless of my efforts – as my grandmother used to say – “whatever will be will be.”
It’s in the spirit of educated hope, faith, and trust that I enter this project; knowing full well that compromises will have to be made by "each side". To my students, and somewhat to the readers of my books, you know my training far more intimately than any TV show could portray. It’s to my students that I give my undying gratitude. These hearty souls have bothered to get off their butts and follow me into the mountains and deserts over the years, come what may; desiring to know the truth about survival skills. Decades of students have helped me to achieve a level of competency, “dirt time”, and stark honesty that can never be bought or faked. Thank you!
In short, watch the show, laugh, and learn a survival trick or two. But…never, ever base your emergency preparedness plan on a television show.
Le deuxieme episode:
Failed Ascent.
Our survival experts take on a mountaineer's worst nightmare. They are left stranded on top of a mountain in New Zealand with limited supplies that would be carried by a climber: rope, crampons, an ice axe and other climbing gear. Working together, they battle 8,000-foot glacial peaks, deadly crevasses and deep rocky canyons as they trek down the mountain on a course set by Canterbury, an experienced climber. To find food, Lundin uses his knowledge of local cultures to tap the dietary wisdom of New Zealand's indigenous Maori

Out Of Air.
Each year, an average of 20 people drown while cave diving. For this survival scenario, survival experts Cody and Dave are lost divers who are fortunate to find air, but they are deep inside a maze of caves in Belize. Equipped with only their dive gear — mask, fins, wetsuit, buoyancy compensator and flashlights — they must find their way out and to safety. The survival rules that work above ground, like following a river downstream, don't apply in the labyrinth of underground caves. Instead, they must make their way upstream in a trek that puts Cody's barefoot philosophy to the ultimate test. Once they emerge, the situation goes from bad to worse — they find themselves surrounded by dense jungle, a web of vines and thorn ravaged terrain... and snakes.

Desert Breakdown.Cody and Dave head into Peru's infamous "Valley of the Volcanoes" to take on the ultimate lost-in-the-desert survival scenario — a broken down car miles from civilization, in the middle of an almost barren lava-scorched landscape. Here, Dave and Cody take on two roles to show how to survive this desolate location: Dave stays with the vehicle and signals for rescue while Cody heads out in search of water. But first, Dave and Cody strip the car for everything it's worth, salvaging the battery, headlights, electrical wiring, tires and seat cushions. They fight volcanic rock, heat exhaustion, altitude sickness,dehydration, rodents and a debilitating illness that literally brings Cody to his knees.

Panic in the Jungle.Dave and Cody tackle a lost hiker scenario in the sweltering jungles of Laos. For their journey, the only "tools" they have are items a backpacker might carry: a 35 mm camera, condoms and a pack of cigarettes. They bushwhack their way through dense terrain, but the survival experts find themselves at odds over the best way to hydrate themselves. Dave drinks from a creek he believes to be safe from parasites, while Cody relies on hydration from the stalks of wild banana palm. The two eventually come to a wide river they believe is the way to help. But to travel the river, they must first join forces to lash together a homemade raft with bamboo and Lao vines.

Swamped.Cody and Dave head to the heart of the Louisiana bayou to take on a potentially deadly scenario: lost in a 1,000 square mile labyrinth of water channels and bogs, home to 1.5 million alligators and six species of poisonous snakes — including water moccasins. To make it out, the two-man team are equipped only with what a lost boater might have, including a knife, flashlight, backpack, cords and the most valuable asset of all — the boat itself. In a swamp filled with predators, the vessel will create a vital barrier during the escape. But without enough gasoline to run the motor, Dave and Cody must improvise.

Split up.Our survival duo take on a nightmarish scenario: stranded, miles apart, in Arizona. Their mission: trek through the tough terrain to find each other and then together make their way to civilization. Dave begins his journey at 8,000 feet above sea level in the Ponderosa Pine forest, where trees block his view at every turn. With no compass and barely a view of the sun, Dave must find his way back to his partner — but not before night and its freezing temperatures hit. Further south, Cody sets out in a totally different ecosystem: the high desert scrub country that he calls home. Cody readies for long-term survival, using his extensive desert survival knowledge to find water, build fire, and construct a variety of signals to help Dave find him.

FAQ-Dual Survival" sur son site:
http://www.codylundin.com/cody_dual_survival.htmlThe following are frequent “Cody questions.” We’ll be adding to the list as need and time allows … enjoy!
Why do you go barefoot?
I like my feet tough. Prisoners of war were always stripped of their shoes as without them they were less likely to run. Going barefoot forces me to pay attention to my environment. I see more, I have better focus, I feel a greater connection to the planet; all very valuable survival traits. On the “everyday life” side of things, the majority of the situations in my life do not require footwear…so why would I consume a resource when it’s not necessary?
Do you recommend that others go barefoot?
No. I have no agenda either way; do what feels natural.
How long have you been going barefoot?
I started going barefoot in the late 1980’s.
What’s your necklace made from?
A friend gave me the mountain lion claws. Another friend gave me the Thor’s hammer from Sweden. I added red ochre from an Indian ochre mine to the base of the claws, strung them, and have worn the piece for many years.
Do you work out?
Yes, I’ve been training with free weights for many years. All survival training revolves around keeping the human body alive. The better the body is kept in shape, the better it will perform under survival stresses.
What’s your favorite survival skills gathering?
There are many skills gatherings that have sprung up over the years. I would bet that all of them have been influenced by Rabbit Stick Rendezvous; the oldest (23 years) and largest of the bunch. Six days of training from dozens of the best instructors in the world, all for $275…and they feed you morning and evening! I’ve been teaching modern survival skills and primitive living skills at Rabbit Stick for 22 years, so unlike many “endorsements” in the marketing world, this one comes with much experience.
Can you explain your self-reliant home?
I live underground in a passive solar earth home that I designed myself and built with the input and labor of many friends. The armature was created by a grid of rebar, building fence, stucco netting, and burlap. It was later shot with a gunite machine, insulated, and back filled. You can read an excerpt about it from my book When All Hell Breaks Loose here. I don’t have building plans available for my home as we never had any plans, but great sustainable building ideas, concepts, and training can be found on the Ecosa Institute web site.
I’m looking for outdoor survival skills training. Can you tell me how to choose a good instructor?
Yes. My opinion about choosing a good survival skills instructor is here.
How can I acclimatize my body to the cold?
I detail this is my first book, 98.6 Degrees: The Art of Keeping Your Ass Alive. Acclimatization can be a complex process yet for most people it involves doing without at some point in time. Simply meaning, when it grows colder outside, try wearing less clothing. The seasons don’t turn from summer to winter at once. Nature offers you a choice to acclimate in her gradual change of seasons. Most people blow this opportunity by putting on too many clothes too soon. Don’t be a dumbass and go with too little clothing into the wilderness. Experiment within the safety of your town or back yard.
You live what you do. How can I make a shift to a more self-reliant lifestyle?
Start slow. Rome wasn’t built in a day. You don’t have to live in the wilderness like I do to obtain a freer life. Many things can be done in town to do more with less; waterless composting toilets, planting fruit trees, solar panels, solar hot water heaters, container gardening, rain catchments, adding a quality wood stove, installing low flow plumbing fixtures, and many other options exist (depending upon your code restrictions) to bring greater self-reliance, freedom, and confidence into your life.
Is Dual Survival your first experience with television?
No. I’ve been asked to host pending survival TV shows since the late 1990’s, and have appeared on TV dozens of times. The television industry is fickle, and consists of a combination of luck, who you know, and if you have the quirk of the day needed by a particular production company. With Dual Survival, the stars aligned, but only after being rejected a dozen plus times over the past decade by all of the top cable networks, and two of the top mainstream networks.
How long have you had your Aboriginal Living Skills School?
I started ALSS in 1991, and have been teaching wilderness survival skills and primitive living skills since the late 1980’s. ALSS is the oldest school in the southwest teaching modern outdoor survival, primitive living skills, and urban preparedness; and being nearly two decades old, is one of the oldest continuously run survival schools in North America. I’ve had a strong interest in the outdoors and native skills since I was a kid.
Have you written any books?
Yes, I have two books. My first book, 98.6 Degrees: The Art of Keeping Your Ass Alive was published in 2003. It details the two main causes of death in the outdoors, hypothermia, and hyperthermia. 98.6 also features my spin on a outdoor survival kit for desert and mountain regions. My second book, When All Hell Breaks Loose: Stuff You Need to Survive When Disaster Strikes was published in 2006, and is my take on urban preparedness; with some aspects of sustainable living, modern outdoor survival skills, and even primitive living skills. Both books are best sellers in their field and continue to be so.
Where did you grow up?
I grew up in a military family so we moved frequently, from Europe to various locales in the US.
What type of music do you listen to?
When I’m training, I like heavy metal, but I love most other forms of music as well such as classical, reggae, blues, rock, indigenous tribal, bluegrass, and a few vintage country artists.
How did you get picked for Dual Survival?
Discovery was looking for a “wilderness” guy and a “military” guy for the Dual Survival show. I was picked from the first “chemistry test” from three other people in June of 2009. At the time, the four of us were paired alone with four military people, of which one was Dave. People were rotated into pairs and asked to complete random survival tasks in order to see who fit well with each other; to see who had the best chemistry. Competence in actual survival skills was a very secondary concern. Although I was picked during the first round, Discovery continued to search for my military partner for two more chemistry tests that lasted two months. In all, I went thru 11 military persons. The rest of the story you know.
I’ve heard that you’ve never seen Dual Survival. Is this true, and if so, why don’t you watch the show?
Yes, it’s true. I don’t care much for TV, and I don’t have it in my home. Originally, I didn’t watch the show when we were shooting as I didn’t want to get pissed off during the process, as I am very fussy about the accuracy of my profession. I am a survival skills professional despite a TV show, not because of one, as is too often the case. At this point, I am intrigued with getting feedback from the show with no personal bias from myself. As I haven’t witnessed how the show was put together (many hours of tape hit the edit room floor) I am able to accurately absorb any commentary from others without any preconceived bias from myself about the final product.
Why don’t you Facebook more?
By frequent Facebooking, I would be proving to you that I’m not really in the field teaching or practicing survival skills. I live what I do, thus my homestead requires attention, as does my school and books. I also live in the wilderness, and while I have modern communications, they work slower than city options. Facebooking is more cumbersome on a satellite system that can be influenced by many outdoor and technical variables. I will however find some time, and I appreciate the patience of the Facebook crowd and other social media!
