"But at the same fourth dimension, those that endured, whether or not they won, it wasn't actually about the winning," he said. "This is an expedition with a stopwatch, is how I always kind of come across this, and just to complete information technology is a huge achievement."
"I unashamedly wept at times, seeing the endeavour and what it meant to these people," said Grylls, an charlatan who starred in the survival series Human being Vs Wild.
Grylls noted the field's diversity, including the outset fully African American team competing internationally. Another American team includes Marking Macy, a past Eco-Challenge competitor who has since been diagnosed with Alzheimer's, and his son, Travis.
