I Was Prey

I've watched every single episode with fascination and awe at the power of nature, the resilience of these human beings, and the miracle of modern medicine. The simplicity of the production -- one survivor gives their firsthand account of being mauled half to death by a wild animal -- honors the primal theme of the drama. The stories told here could have been told since the dawn of time, a brush with a gory and terrifying death in the wilderness. Although the miracles performed by medical personnel today make many of these stories tales of survival when they would have most likely been fatal tragedies even a century ago. Each episode left me with a feeling of gratitude for life and limb, respect for nature, and admiration for the strength of the survivors. My family likes to wager at the beginning whether the survivor returns to the activity that got them bitten in the first place. They always say at the end. Always interesting to see what makes life worth living for people.

Worst episode i wish that lady did die id never leave any of my dogs to die like that shes forsure not one of the people i would of liked to survive replace her with wteve irwin please god

Amazing show, i cannot wait for season 3! Highly recommend it!

Every single episode and story in this series is fake. These people claiming they've been mauled by various wild animals don't have a single scar on them. Some even point to their arms or necks during the show and say 'I could feel my bones crushing' when there is no one cut even visible. In one of the episodes, a guy says 'and there it was, a fully grown 400-pound grizzly bear'. One, grizzly bears can weigh 50% more than this; and, two, how did he know it was 400 pounds? My point is, every story uttered in this hogwash is nothing but a script masquerading as a real-life account. Even Urban Tarzan seems more realistic.

You want to see what a wild animal attack really looks like? Look up Charla Nash (she survived a chimp attack who happened to be her neighbour's pet). A bear could kill a chimp with one swipe of its arms, but, surprisingly, all those 'attacked' by bears in the show have perfect bodies. And there are those who have been attacked by hyenas, wolves and even sharks! Sharks? Yet they show zero signs of scars or bruising? Yes, yes, very believable. And I am a werewolf.

I am not saying humans cannot survive being mauled by various animals, but it would leave long-lasting effects on one's physical body that onlookers would cringe from the view. Please show some respect to viewers and to wildlife alike, and stop producing shows to generate money that are based on lies.

Well most of the time people in this show make silly mistakes leading to massive disasters. As such is life I suppose but wow one episode the guy has a pocket knife thats garbage and the other the woman leaves her cell phone and another they have nothing to scare the bear off, like idk a loud noise making device of some kind? I mean seriously so many mistakes! Guess that's why it's appearing on the show though so go figure. Lessons learned though don't just stand around as a bear charges you throw down a noise making device to spook the heck outta it or something.
