Centurion-born Viktor Kuhn (49) has conquered the jungles of Guyana to emerge as the first South African to win the hit survival show Naked and Afraid competition.
Kuhn braved the unforgiving rainforest with his American companion, Janis Holcombe and the two formed a unique friendship.
A paramedic by trade, Kuhn worked behind the scenes on the show for a number of seasons before the producers asked him to take part.
“At first I thought they were joking when they said they would like to put me in front of the cameras and I soon received a phone call saying I would be in the next season of the show.”
Just getting to Guyana was a challenge in itself.
Kuhn traveled for five days straight from Iraq, which included an overnight stay in Istanbul en route to Bogota, Panama City then a short stay in Guyana’s capital, Georgetown, before taking a chartered flight to the town of Lethem, where the show was filmed.
