I too watched the first two episodes on Randy11's link above. My theory on these "reality shows" of which this one seems to be the entirely real deal, is if you pay attention, the eliminations are hinted at by foreshadowing. Editing can focus on the most dramatic episodes, and/or the next ones eliminated. "Our" Dustin not getting as much air time now may mean that he lasts longer.
But Dustin, who goes to a survival show located in North Americas wettest rain forest and doesn't bring a shelter/tarp as one of their allowed 10 items?? I think he was the only participant/contestant ($500,000 to the winner) to list a slingshot among the items brought with along with the 4 cameras used to self film their adventure.
The trail camera video showing the bears sniffing at the tarp got my attention.
