Want To Be On Discovery Channel's Out of the Wild Season 2?

Casting is about to begin on the second season of Discovery Channel's Emmy-award winning Out of the Wild, a show that dropped nine amateur adventurers into the Alaskan backcountry and followed them as they learned to survive in the harsh environments there. The second season of the show will follow a similar formula, but will send the new team of explorers off to South America instead.

Pilgrim Films, the company that produces the show, is now looking for people to join this new reality show expedition. To be eligible you must be at least 21 years of age, and be available for a series of interviews coming up in October. If you're selected to be a part of the team, you must also be available for approximately a month later in the year for filming the show as well. If you're interested in being a part of the show, send an e-mail to OTWCasting@gmail.com with your name, phone number, a recent photo, and a brief explanation of why you should be on the show.

The interesting thing to me is that they are headed to South America this time, but they don't say where they are going. The possibilities are nearly endless with places like Patagonia springing to mind, as it would provide a similar environment to Alaska. But even more intriguing is the thought of them going to the Amazon Jungle or perhaps the Atacama Desert or some place else that would provide an extreme environment that is very different from the last season. Could be interesting. If any of you try out for the show, good luck!
