Grimy: The contestants on Naked and Afraid had never met before being teamed up to survive in the jungle. Kim Shelton and Shane Lewis can't hide their exhaustion.

It would take a brave soul to strip off and bare all for new reality show Naked and Afraid.
Deposited in the jungle without food and water, their breath jagged and shallow, and their nerves on edge,the contestants come face to face with hyenas and poisonous snakes, with one muttering: 'God, we're so screwed'.
Six strangers were put together for the Discovery show, debuting on Sunday, and stranded in the wilderness.
And despite all being experienced survivalists, they're still scared senseless as another admits: 'This is one nasty place...I'm naked in the land of venomous snakes!'

Survival of the fittest: Nude castaways star on Discovery's Naked and Afraid.

Naked and Afraid is billed as taking 'survival of the fittest' to the next level - and dubbed 'the Everest of survival challenges'.
Each week, a new pair of complete and total strangers - one man and one woman - will find themselves stranded in and, quite literally, exposed to some of the world's most extreme weather environments.
Each duo will be left high and dry with no food, no water and and no clothes. They must survive on their own for a full 21 days, with nothing but one personal item each.

The dramatic trailer says that humans can only go three days without water - with the human body beginning to shut down after three weeks without food.
And contestants are seen desperately scrambling for something to eat, with one woman seen killing a fish as her partner yells 'chop its head off', as tells it 'you're my dinner.'
While another kills a snake, telling the camera: 'It will still bite you even though I cut its damn head off.'

Scared: Kim Shelton, 22, a student from Minnesota, stripped off for the Discovery show.
