Rocket scientist and python wrangler to star in tough Netflix survival show

Sixteen “lone wolves” are dropped into the Alaskan wilderness in the second season of a gritty Netflix show this September. Outlast is back! The competitors are likely weighing up whether fighting for survival in the wild is more difficult than having to work as part of a team. This fall, there’s $1 million up for grabs, and whoever has the best survival skills will win.

With a whopping prize fund up for grabs, the Netflix show is set to be intense. The 16 survivalists have their work cut out as they navigate the competition. The Outlast contestants are split into four teams – the Alpha Camp, Bravo Camp, Charlie Camp, and Delta Camp. The team that survives the longest and wins a final challenge will be crowned overall champions.
