This is Kruger National Park in South Africa, | 0:00:02 | 0:00:05 | |
home to some of the biggest, fastest and deadliest animals on the planet. | 0:00:05 | 0:00:11 | |
CBBC have brought four British and four South African children | 0:00:11 | 0:00:16 | |
to spend a month here, training to be rookie game rangers. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:20 | |
Leading them on the adventure are their mentors - trail ranger Rudi... | 0:00:20 | 0:00:26 | |
It's taken me years to learn to be a ranger, they have a month. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:30 | |
..and guide Frankie. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
Danger can be around any corner. They have to be alert and ready. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:38 | |
Eight kids, two mentors and one massive challenge - | 0:00:38 | 0:00:42 | |
to lead two celebrity guests on the safari of a lifetime. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:46 | |
The rookie rangers had a close encounter with one of the Big Five. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:12 | |
-Just push it. -I'm going to be sick! | 0:01:12 | 0:01:15 | |
And they settled into their new home. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:18 | |
The treehouse is just amazing! | 0:01:18 | 0:01:23 | |
Today, the rookie rangers leave the treehouse for good, | 0:01:23 | 0:01:29 | |
replacing luxury for camping. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
I don't like it here! | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
The team experience an unforgettable sighting... | 0:01:34 | 0:01:39 | |
It was the most incredible experience ever! | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
..and there's tension brewing in camp. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:45 | |
Let me finish this one! | 0:01:45 | 0:01:47 | |
It's a week into their training and, so far, the rookie rangers | 0:01:54 | 0:01:59 | |
have had the comfort of a roof over their heads, | 0:01:59 | 0:02:03 | |
but mentors Rudi and Frankie have some news. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
All right, we have decided we are going to take you deep into the bush | 0:02:06 | 0:02:12 | |
so that you can experience what we experience every single day. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:17 | |
ALL: Amazing! | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
15 minutes, guys. Go and pack. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
News of the departure has left the Safari 8 with mixed feelings. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:31 | |
-I'm going to miss my bed so much! -And the bathroom. -And the showers. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:36 | |
I really want air-conditioning in the next place cos I'm sweating! | 0:02:36 | 0:02:41 | |
If I had to choose between luxury and camping, I'd pick luxury. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:48 | |
I'm looking forward to moving to a new environment. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
I don't have any concerns other than wildlife biting our heads off. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:57 | |
My nice, neat and tidy bed... that I will miss very much! | 0:02:58 | 0:03:03 | |
As the Safari 8 bid farewell to the treehouse, | 0:03:09 | 0:03:13 | |
they have no idea where they're heading, but Tomas has some ideas. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:20 | |
Some rundown shack! No air-con, and it's like 40 degrees! | 0:03:20 | 0:03:28 | |
The mentors are taking the Safari 8 deeper into the bush | 0:03:28 | 0:03:32 | |
to a remote spot where tourists are not allowed. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:36 | |
The Safari 8 have nearly arrived at their new home. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:43 | |
The last leg of the journey is on foot, | 0:03:43 | 0:03:47 | |
so keeping quiet and walking in single file is essential | 0:03:47 | 0:03:52 | |
as the team are deep in the bush and dangerous animals could be anywhere. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:57 | |
This will be the rookie rangers' base for the rest of their stay. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:04 | |
An electric fence surrounds the camp to keep the wild animals outside... | 0:04:06 | 0:04:10 | |
..and the Safari 8 safe inside. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:14 | |
The team get their first glimpse of their new home. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:18 | |
And they like what they see. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:20 | |
-It's amazing! -Cool. -Oh, my goodness! | 0:04:20 | 0:04:24 | |
A buffalo head. | 0:04:29 | 0:04:32 | |
What do you guys think about the view? | 0:04:32 | 0:04:35 | |
Their camp overlooks the river bed - a prime spot for animal sighting. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:40 | |
-I'm speechless! -I can see that. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
OK, guys, welcome to your new camp. Do you know what the camp's name is? | 0:04:44 | 0:04:49 | |
-No. -Sikhaya. -Means home. -It's home. Sifisu, it's Zulu, eh? | 0:04:49 | 0:04:54 | |
We have a bit of an insect problem. You have to get used to that. | 0:04:56 | 0:05:01 | |
Keep your tents closed, the zips closed. | 0:05:01 | 0:05:04 | |
You will have to pitch your own tent now. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:09 | |
-What?! -We will help you with that. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:13 | |
It's part of your final challenge. | 0:05:13 | 0:05:16 | |
In their final challenge, | 0:05:16 | 0:05:18 | |
the team will lead their guests on a two-day safari, set up camp | 0:05:18 | 0:05:24 | |
and even provide the entertainment! | 0:05:24 | 0:05:26 | |
Ok, let's go to the camp sites. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:31 | |
The mentors have decided who shares the tents | 0:05:31 | 0:05:35 | |
to make sure the Brits and the South Africans get to know each other. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:40 | |
It's just a grasshopper. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:49 | |
It's a grasshopper! | 0:05:49 | 0:05:51 | |
-Open the whole tent. -I'm really excited to camp. | 0:05:55 | 0:05:58 | |
I think it's going to be fun. | 0:05:58 | 0:06:01 | |
Not everyone shares Manya's excitement. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:05 | |
I've never been camping before. | 0:06:05 | 0:06:07 | |
I don't like sleeping close to someone, I like my space. | 0:06:07 | 0:06:13 | |
But I suppose you have to get over it. | 0:06:13 | 0:06:16 | |
Good, there we go. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:20 | |
I think we're going to have our tent up first. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:23 | |
Putting their tent up is bringing Tomas and Manya closer together. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:29 | |
But how is everyone else bonding? | 0:06:29 | 0:06:32 | |
I'm doing that! Getting it out the way! This is one end... | 0:06:32 | 0:06:37 | |
Me and Kushal were getting on very well and I think... | 0:06:37 | 0:06:42 | |
enjoying one another's company. All of a sudden, he just changed. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:46 | |
You're bending it! No, don't do that! | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
Kushal tries too hard. He doesn't know how to deal with his anger. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:54 | |
I got a bit annoyed that he didn't help me as much as I wanted. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:58 | |
Help me. It's hooked into that. | 0:06:58 | 0:07:03 | |
I feel so sad for somebody shouting at me. It feels so...irritating. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:07 | |
Oh! Silly thing! Ow! | 0:07:07 | 0:07:13 | |
Noma and Caroline have their tent up first, | 0:07:14 | 0:07:18 | |
but how much did they do themselves? | 0:07:18 | 0:07:20 | |
I did really... But there was loads of wee bugs and beasties and...! | 0:07:20 | 0:07:25 | |
Oh! Look! They're crawling all over it! | 0:07:25 | 0:07:29 | |
For Kushal, it's a frustrating experience. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:33 | |
It doesn't stay straight! The whole thing should be flat! | 0:07:33 | 0:07:37 | |
It's just in a bundle! | 0:07:37 | 0:07:39 | |
I'm really...not understanding anything. I feel SO angry just now. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:44 | |
Someone's not very happy with who they're with. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:48 | |
Kushal may be getting frustrated, he wanted to be with Manya. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:54 | |
Can you come and help someone who needs help now, please?! | 0:07:54 | 0:07:58 | |
I wanted to be with Manya cos I've talked to him a lot. | 0:07:58 | 0:08:01 | |
I wasn't that worried, | 0:08:01 | 0:08:03 | |
but then I think Sifiso felt it a bit offputting cos I'm quite loud | 0:08:03 | 0:08:09 | |
and quite in your face a bit and he's quite quiet and laid-back. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:13 | |
While Kushal and Sifiso are finding it tricky, Manya and Tomas are glad | 0:08:13 | 0:08:18 | |
they're second to get their tent up. | 0:08:18 | 0:08:21 | |
Caroline, on the other hand, is not as happy. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:27 | |
I hate bugs! They're so creepy and crawly and they're all over our tent! | 0:08:27 | 0:08:33 | |
I just hate them so much. I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:39 | |
They're everywhere - in my tent and in my sleeping bag. | 0:08:39 | 0:08:43 | |
I don't like it! SQUEALING | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
Aagh! | 0:08:49 | 0:08:51 | |
-It's just a... -I don't like it here! | 0:08:51 | 0:08:54 | |
Yay! | 0:08:57 | 0:09:00 | |
Ashleigh and Ella finish next. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:02 | |
They lend a hand to Kushal and Sifiso who are still struggling. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:06 | |
Oh! | 0:09:06 | 0:09:09 | |
There we go! Well done! | 0:09:09 | 0:09:11 | |
They finally have their tent up, but Kushal is still frustrated. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:15 | |
I'm going to let out my anger here. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:19 | |
This is extremely good therapy cos all my anger is being let out | 0:09:21 | 0:09:26 | |
beating some pegs into the ground. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:29 | |
It may be therapeutic for Kushal, but less so for Sifiso. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:34 | |
With camp pitched, Rudi and Frankie head off with the rookie rangers. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:46 | |
But one member of the group has decided not to go. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:52 | |
Sifiso wants some time out so he stays in the camp with ranger Jacob. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:57 | |
Sifiso overheard me saying that I didn't want to share with Sifiso | 0:09:57 | 0:10:02 | |
and I think he was upset about that. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:04 | |
It made me sad. I was so upset. I was so hurt, truly hurt, | 0:10:04 | 0:10:10 | |
because of this kind of comment. But I think I'm going to be OK. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:15 | |
Kushal is quite a vocal little guy. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:18 | |
The kids need to work as a team and have to sort these things out now. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:23 | |
I think Sifiso, even though he is quiet, | 0:10:23 | 0:10:26 | |
he's a strong guy, yeah. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:29 | |
And Sifiso's family know better than anyone how determined he is. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:34 | |
He's a go-getter. Very stubborn. | 0:10:39 | 0:10:42 | |
If he wants something, he makes sure he gets it. He's a hustler. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:48 | |
He's doing very well at school. | 0:10:48 | 0:10:50 | |
He knows how to socialise with people and makes friends very easily. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:55 | |
I have learnt a lot from him. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:58 | |
I'm from a loving and caring family. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:00 | |
They put through that love so I spread it. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:04 | |
Aren't you forgetting to introduce the rest of your family, Sifiso? | 0:11:04 | 0:11:09 | |
I have seven chickens. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:12 | |
Three are male and four are female chickens. | 0:11:12 | 0:11:15 | |
What I like about my chickens is that they make noise in the morning. | 0:11:15 | 0:11:19 | |
-CROWING -They wake me up sometimes. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:24 | |
His dad owns a hardware store | 0:11:24 | 0:11:27 | |
and Sifiso loves to help out. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:30 | |
He's helping me with writing invoices | 0:11:30 | 0:11:33 | |
and explaining the product to the customers. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:37 | |
Outside of work and play, he's a regular on a local radio station. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:42 | |
..Sifiso, our very own kids' talk co-host. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:46 | |
He's joining us today for a very different reason - Safari 8. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:51 | |
It's going to be a show that will be broadcast... | 0:11:51 | 0:11:56 | |
We debate things like politics in South Africa, teenage pregnancy - | 0:11:56 | 0:12:01 | |
things that affect us as teenagers. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:04 | |
I'll miss home, but it'll be nice cos it's an experience. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:10 | |
With Sifiso back in camp, | 0:12:16 | 0:12:19 | |
it's up to Safari 7 to take on Rudi and Frankie's latest challenge. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:25 | |
If you are stranded in the bush and can't get food, you have a problem. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:30 | |
There is an insect, it's called the mopane worm. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:34 | |
This worm is actually the larvae of a mopane moth. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:39 | |
This is the worm when it's dried. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:41 | |
When you're in the bush, you haven't eaten for two or three days, | 0:12:41 | 0:12:46 | |
this is going to look like a 500g steak. Who is up for trying one? | 0:12:46 | 0:12:51 | |
OK, Tomas. Just wait. Just keep it in your hand. | 0:12:52 | 0:12:56 | |
-We'll just hand it out... -CAROLINE: Oh, it stinks! | 0:12:56 | 0:13:00 | |
Just take it. Noma? Come on, I'll make you a deal. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:05 | |
-If you eat one, I will eat one. -As if you haven't eaten one before... | 0:13:05 | 0:13:11 | |
-It looks like barbecue! -You guys ready? | 0:13:11 | 0:13:15 | |
-I'll take the first one. -CRUNCHING | 0:13:15 | 0:13:18 | |
-Tomas? -Did you eat the whole thing?! | 0:13:21 | 0:13:25 | |
It doesn't taste bad! | 0:13:25 | 0:13:27 | |
RUDI AND FRANKIE LAUGH > | 0:13:29 | 0:13:33 | |
-Kushal. -I can't bite into it! | 0:13:39 | 0:13:43 | |
Put it in your mouth. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:45 | |
It's not too bad, is it? | 0:13:45 | 0:13:47 | |
Noma! | 0:13:47 | 0:13:50 | |
Noma, come on! You made a deal with me! | 0:13:53 | 0:13:57 | |
Well done. You've done something | 0:14:00 | 0:14:03 | |
that some other guys I know have never tried and will never try. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:08 | |
-< Is it Rudi? -No, I never said Rudi. | 0:14:08 | 0:14:10 | |
-< But is it Rudi?! -CHANTING: Rudi! Rudi! | 0:14:10 | 0:14:15 | |
CHANTING: Eat it! Eat it! Eat it! | 0:14:15 | 0:14:20 | |
Still to come. The Safari 8 are left speechless at an elephant encounter. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:37 | |
You don't realise how big they are. | 0:14:37 | 0:14:39 | |
Teamwork is tested as the Safari 8 tackle a local team at footie. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:45 | |
It's the first night in camp for Safari 8 | 0:14:45 | 0:14:49 | |
and, for some of the rookie rangers, it's going to be a challenge. | 0:14:49 | 0:14:54 | |
I can't touch the ground. Noma keeps telling me | 0:14:56 | 0:15:01 | |
there's bugs and beasties everywhere. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:03 | |
I've got toothpaste, but no toothbrush. | 0:15:04 | 0:15:06 | |
It's like buying a car with no petrol. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:09 | |
-You see, I just took another bug off. -Ohh, it doesn't help! | 0:15:09 | 0:15:15 | |
I think Caroline is making it worse, because every second, | 0:15:15 | 0:15:19 | |
if someone touches her, she freaks out, | 0:15:19 | 0:15:21 | |
so because everyone is a bit tired, I have to join in the frenzy | 0:15:21 | 0:15:25 | |
and be hyped myself. | 0:15:25 | 0:15:27 | |
-Jeez! -Did you see that? | 0:15:29 | 0:15:32 | |
Impala, they're everywhere. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:35 | |
I think that 90% of all animals in Kruger are impala. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:39 | |
I reckon we should take all the impalas out of Kruger | 0:15:39 | 0:15:43 | |
and put them somewhere else, so even if you see an animal, | 0:15:43 | 0:15:45 | |
it's rare, in our eyes. Because all you see is impala. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:50 | |
Everyone seems to be enjoying their tent buddy, | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |
but after today's earlier tensions, how is Sifiso feeling about Kushal? | 0:15:55 | 0:15:59 | |
By the look of things, it's getting better. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:02 | |
I think me and Kushal will be friends in the end, | 0:16:02 | 0:16:04 | |
because we'll probably spend a lot of time together. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:08 | |
So I think we're going to be friends. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:10 | |
HE SIGHS | 0:16:11 | 0:16:13 | |
Tough day. | 0:16:13 | 0:16:16 | |
Kushal is trying to make it up to Sifiso, | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
and he's even named their tent after him. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:23 | |
-We call it the Hustler House. -The Hustler House. | 0:16:23 | 0:16:25 | |
-The H House! -The Hustler House! -Only hustlers allowed here. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:30 | |
It's early morning in Kruger and after their first night in camp, | 0:16:41 | 0:16:46 | |
how are the rookie rangers feeling? | 0:16:46 | 0:16:48 | |
My first night in the bush was exciting, | 0:16:48 | 0:16:51 | |
because I had to, like, sleep like a baby, I'd had a long day. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
I'm getting to know Kushal better, | 0:16:54 | 0:16:57 | |
and I think we're trying to sort out our problems, | 0:16:57 | 0:17:00 | |
-and I think it's getting better. -I've learned you need to relate | 0:17:00 | 0:17:03 | |
to the person quite calmly, and I think by the end of the week, | 0:17:03 | 0:17:08 | |
or maybe tomorrow, we'll be really good friends. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:10 | |
Life in the bush is still proving difficult | 0:17:13 | 0:17:16 | |
for one person in particular. | 0:17:16 | 0:17:19 | |
My first night's sleep was a disaster. | 0:17:22 | 0:17:25 | |
It's not the best experience when you're sitting in your bed | 0:17:25 | 0:17:28 | |
and crawling all over you are massive big bugs. | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
Today, Caroline will be relieved | 0:17:36 | 0:17:37 | |
that small creatures will be replaced by the largest land mammal, | 0:17:37 | 0:17:42 | |
as the mentors are taking the Safari 8 tracking for elephants. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:45 | |
Frankie is in the traditional "spotter" position | 0:17:47 | 0:17:50 | |
on the front of the game viewer, | 0:17:50 | 0:17:51 | |
so he can see any signs of elephants more easily. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:55 | |
The team have spotted elephants in the distance, | 0:18:01 | 0:18:04 | |
so Frankie and Rudi are going ahead to check if it's safe. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:08 | |
All rangers carry rifles with them for safety | 0:18:08 | 0:18:10 | |
when walking in the bush. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:13 | |
The elephant means a lot to me, | 0:18:13 | 0:18:16 | |
because when I was watching a documentary, | 0:18:16 | 0:18:19 | |
years ago, they always used to look straight at me, | 0:18:19 | 0:18:22 | |
and I'd usually think it was a sign. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:24 | |
I like elephants because they have big brains, like me - | 0:18:24 | 0:18:28 | |
I always say that, every time! And they are so clever. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:31 | |
They're so big and unique. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:33 | |
Back from the bush, the rangers nominate the leader | 0:18:33 | 0:18:38 | |
for today's important role. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:40 | |
I want Noma to be in charge of the Safari 8 group, | 0:18:40 | 0:18:44 | |
and make sure that everybody's quiet, OK? | 0:18:44 | 0:18:48 | |
Keep in line, keep the group nice and tight. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:51 | |
If anything happens, you listen to myself and Rudi, | 0:18:51 | 0:18:54 | |
we will tell you exactly where to go and direct you to safety. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:57 | |
Seriously, no loud noises, OK? | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
OK. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:02 | |
OK, you guys can see he's been walking that way, | 0:19:02 | 0:19:06 | |
and see how fresh it is. | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
We just saw it now, and see how well defined these cracks in his foot. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:14 | |
We'll try and follow it on the grass, but as soon as you see | 0:19:14 | 0:19:17 | |
that it goes into the grass, it's very difficult to pick up the spoor. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:22 | |
Spoor is animal tracks or trails it's left behind. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:26 | |
And what do you check then? Check this. Check the wind. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:30 | |
See the wind, OK? Basically, you want to approach the elephant up-wind, | 0:19:32 | 0:19:37 | |
so he doesn't smell you, OK? So always remember where the wind is. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:42 | |
(This part's good, being the person in charge today.) | 0:19:45 | 0:19:49 | |
I turned back and I told them to keep it low, | 0:19:49 | 0:19:52 | |
to be quiet, to walk in a line, | 0:19:52 | 0:19:53 | |
and they listened and looked straight and did as they were told, | 0:19:53 | 0:19:57 | |
which was very good. | 0:19:57 | 0:19:59 | |
I think Noma did quite well in controlling the kids. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:03 | |
She took responsibility really quickly and kept them in check. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:07 | |
-(Right, sit down.) -(Oh, wow!) | 0:20:17 | 0:20:20 | |
(He's right through there.) | 0:20:21 | 0:20:23 | |
Honestly, I think they were more excited than scared. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:26 | |
If you look at little Ella, she was just over the moon. | 0:20:26 | 0:20:29 | |
I've never seen a kid's face like that, | 0:20:29 | 0:20:31 | |
when the elephant was standing there. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:33 | |
(So what we're going to do now is how to approach an elephant, OK? | 0:20:33 | 0:20:38 | |
(You can still feel the wind. Feel the wind. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:41 | |
(Where's it going?) | 0:20:41 | 0:20:42 | |
-(That way.) -(Going that way. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:44 | |
(You have to look at where to approach it, where is it safe? | 0:20:44 | 0:20:48 | |
(So, basically, you find a nice structure to stand behind, | 0:20:48 | 0:20:53 | |
(let the elephant not see you.) | 0:20:53 | 0:20:54 | |
(He saw us. Did you see him? | 0:21:07 | 0:21:10 | |
(He lifted up his head, made himself like this. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:15 | |
(He's listening. When they stop feeding, | 0:21:17 | 0:21:20 | |
(then you know that they're seriously listening | 0:21:20 | 0:21:23 | |
(to what's going on around them. OK?) | 0:21:23 | 0:21:26 | |
-(Not a threat?) -(He doesn't see us as a threat, yet.) | 0:21:26 | 0:21:29 | |
Guys, what I want to do now is to get behind this tree, OK? | 0:21:32 | 0:21:36 | |
Because at the moment, he can see us. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:39 | |
But he's very relaxed. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:41 | |
That's the difference between your cows, that's in a herd, | 0:21:41 | 0:21:44 | |
and a bull, OK? The bulls are normally quite relaxed. | 0:21:44 | 0:21:50 | |
(Fine, OK. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:04 | |
(Now, if an animal moves, that's when you stop | 0:22:04 | 0:22:07 | |
(and you see what it's doing. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:09 | |
(Now I think we can go closer.) | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
It's so big, you don't realise how big they are | 0:22:15 | 0:22:18 | |
until you see one up close, so it's really, really cool. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:22 | |
(OK, guys, listen up, listen. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:26 | |
(This is now the safe position. We're not going closer than this. | 0:22:26 | 0:22:30 | |
(You give the animals always an escape route, | 0:22:30 | 0:22:34 | |
(if he wants to go, he can go, | 0:22:34 | 0:22:36 | |
(he's got the whole river bed that he can cross, | 0:22:36 | 0:22:39 | |
(so he can get away from us. Always look at his posture.) | 0:22:39 | 0:22:43 | |
What he's doing with his body. If he stops feeding, | 0:22:43 | 0:22:46 | |
if he's keeping his trunk still and he's listening, | 0:22:46 | 0:22:50 | |
then that, you need to be wary of, OK? | 0:22:50 | 0:22:54 | |
So, always look at his posture. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:56 | |
And you can see, he's quite relaxed, he's feeding, | 0:22:56 | 0:22:59 | |
he's flapping his ears, and that's all nice for us, | 0:22:59 | 0:23:02 | |
that's a perfect position, a perfect body posture. | 0:23:02 | 0:23:06 | |
It was the most incredible experience ever, | 0:23:06 | 0:23:09 | |
because it was right there and you had to keep quiet, | 0:23:09 | 0:23:12 | |
because it's not like when you go and you pay to see a tame one, | 0:23:12 | 0:23:17 | |
it could charge you. | 0:23:17 | 0:23:18 | |
It's not one of those things that you see and go, "That was nice," | 0:23:18 | 0:23:22 | |
it's really, like, it makes a huge impact. | 0:23:22 | 0:23:24 | |
OK. Stay still, stay still. | 0:23:24 | 0:23:27 | |
It's getting more agitated, hey? | 0:23:32 | 0:23:34 | |
We're going to move out of the area now. | 0:23:34 | 0:23:37 | |
If an animal gets too agitated, at one stage he's going to turn on us, | 0:23:37 | 0:23:41 | |
and he might charge, OK? So, basically, what we need to do now | 0:23:41 | 0:23:45 | |
is listen, walk in single file, | 0:23:45 | 0:23:49 | |
keep on this pathway that we came through, | 0:23:49 | 0:23:52 | |
quietly move out, no talking. I knows it's exciting, | 0:23:52 | 0:23:55 | |
but no talking now. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:58 | |
That was my first experience of seeing an elephant in the wild. | 0:24:02 | 0:24:06 | |
It was amazing, it really was just mind-blowing. | 0:24:06 | 0:24:09 | |
Ella may be elated, | 0:24:09 | 0:24:11 | |
but the potential dangers of tracking elephants | 0:24:11 | 0:24:15 | |
has hit home for Tomas. | 0:24:15 | 0:24:16 | |
I still don't feel very confident about taking people | 0:24:16 | 0:24:21 | |
out on safari, because we still don't know a lot about animals, | 0:24:21 | 0:24:26 | |
all the tricks of the trade and stuff. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:29 | |
All right, kids, good afternoon, welcome to Skukuza soccer pitch. | 0:24:32 | 0:24:36 | |
Rudi and Frankie are keen to see the Safari 8 work as a team, | 0:24:36 | 0:24:39 | |
so they've arranged a football match with some local children. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:42 | |
Today we're looking at teamwork. | 0:24:42 | 0:24:44 | |
The mentors have chosen a leader for the challenge. | 0:24:44 | 0:24:48 | |
And we've decided to designate Sifiso as captain today. | 0:24:48 | 0:24:52 | |
He's going to set up the field, | 0:24:52 | 0:24:54 | |
and everyone listen to Sifiso on the pitch, all right? | 0:24:54 | 0:24:57 | |
-OK, guys... -Sifiso, we chose him as a captain | 0:24:57 | 0:24:59 | |
because I think he's quite quiet at the moment, but there's some | 0:24:59 | 0:25:03 | |
really good leadership characteristics in him. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:06 | |
The rookie rangers fear they're up against stiff competition. | 0:25:08 | 0:25:12 | |
It was scary meeting the other children, | 0:25:12 | 0:25:15 | |
because they looked a bit older and so mature, | 0:25:15 | 0:25:18 | |
and they looked like they knew what they were doing. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:22 | |
Team Safari 8! | 0:25:22 | 0:25:24 | |
THEY CHEER | 0:25:24 | 0:25:26 | |
-High-five! -Seriously, I'm so embarrassed! | 0:25:26 | 0:25:29 | |
Come on, Team Safari 8, show them what you're made of! | 0:25:34 | 0:25:37 | |
WHISTLE BLOWS | 0:25:37 | 0:25:39 | |
Caroline, when she did the kick-off, | 0:25:39 | 0:25:42 | |
she just kicked it straight to them! | 0:25:42 | 0:25:44 | |
Oh, dear. Can it get any worse? | 0:25:45 | 0:25:48 | |
Ella got a ball in her face, it was so sad! | 0:25:51 | 0:25:54 | |
The ball came flying into her head, | 0:25:54 | 0:25:56 | |
but she didn't cry or start screaming. | 0:25:56 | 0:26:01 | |
Ooh, close call, but no goal! | 0:26:03 | 0:26:06 | |
Sifiso makes a run for it, | 0:26:06 | 0:26:09 | |
but he's brought down by the opposition. | 0:26:09 | 0:26:11 | |
It's a penalty kick for Safari 8, but will Sifiso score? | 0:26:11 | 0:26:16 | |
THEY CHEER | 0:26:17 | 0:26:18 | |
What a sublime goal from the Safari 8 captain! | 0:26:18 | 0:26:22 | |
But the Safari 8 can't hang onto the lead for long, | 0:26:27 | 0:26:30 | |
as the opposition score to equalise. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:32 | |
With the clock ticking, will either team win? | 0:26:32 | 0:26:35 | |
And it's a late goal for the opposition, | 0:26:40 | 0:26:42 | |
which means the Safari 8 have lost the match. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:46 | |
CHEERING | 0:26:46 | 0:26:49 | |
The rookie rangers are defeated 2-1, | 0:26:49 | 0:26:51 | |
but who is everyone's man of the match? | 0:26:51 | 0:26:55 | |
Sifiso was absolutely brilliant. He scored our one and only goal, | 0:26:55 | 0:26:59 | |
and he was our captain, which made it even better. | 0:26:59 | 0:27:02 | |
He was the one who scored our goal, he told us all what to do, | 0:27:02 | 0:27:05 | |
he did play really well, so I think he did a good job. | 0:27:05 | 0:27:08 | |
-Glad you enjoyed it. -Yeah! | 0:27:08 | 0:27:10 | |
Being a captain was very exciting and I felt very special, | 0:27:10 | 0:27:13 | |
I was a leader. | 0:27:13 | 0:27:15 | |
It's been a mixed couple of days for Sifiso, | 0:27:15 | 0:27:19 | |
but after his performance as captain, | 0:27:19 | 0:27:21 | |
how does his tent buddy Kushal rate him? | 0:27:21 | 0:27:23 | |
Sifiso was really good as captain. | 0:27:23 | 0:27:26 | |
He positioned us well, his goal was fantastic, | 0:27:26 | 0:27:28 | |
he put it right into the corner. He's a really good captain. | 0:27:28 | 0:27:32 | |
It was really nice to do something all together as a team. | 0:27:32 | 0:27:36 | |
It's helped us all co-operate more, | 0:27:36 | 0:27:38 | |
and we need to do that right now as a group, | 0:27:38 | 0:27:41 | |
because we'll get closer together the more things we do together. | 0:27:41 | 0:27:45 | |
Next time - the Safari 8 become at one with the bush... | 0:27:48 | 0:27:51 | |
It's a different make-up from what I'd usually wear! | 0:27:51 | 0:27:54 | |
Feel like the SAS! | 0:27:54 | 0:27:55 | |
-..Have a heart-stopping encounter... -I want everybody to follow me. | 0:27:55 | 0:27:59 | |
We realised that there was another one coming towards us. | 0:27:59 | 0:28:02 | |
..And cleaning up in camp gets very dirty. | 0:28:02 | 0:28:06 | |
Oh, that is not fair! | 0:28:06 | 0:28:08 | |
