Megan, who serves as the head of extraction, shares insights into the show’s unique format and the challenges faced by participants. Extracted features families or close friends, where one member is dropped into the Canadian wilderness with minimal survival experience. The remaining members, stationed at a base, make critical decisions about their loved one’s survival, including when to extract them. Megan explains her role in deploying and retrieving participants, using helicopters and boats to navigate the remote, forested terrain of British Columbia.
