This episode of "True Adventure", a TV program hosted by Bill Burrud, shows the first Kantuta expedition in 1955-56. This was led by Czech adventurer Eduard Ingris, who was inspired by the Kon-Tiki expeditions. Ingris attempted to cross the Pacific from Peru, on a raft made from balsa wood. The expedition ended in failure and almost cost the expedition team its lives. A second expedition was launched in 1959, and that raft the Kantuta II made a successful voyage from Peru to Polynesia. Eduard Ingriš enjoyed a long career as a Hollywood cameraman, and created documentaries about his own travels.

OMG - The dreaded WHALE SHARK! The terror of plankton everywhere! A once in a lifetime spotting of a rare and harmless creature.
What became of the crew?
Why did they choose Natalia? Because she was willing, and "they already informed her of the dangers she'll face".... Too funny...
The shark is NOT DANGEROUS ONE !!
