DESCRIPTION:
(from Discovery Health's press release, November 2008) Discovery Health redefines what it means to be fit with COULD YOU SURVIVE?, a new series that asks the average American one crucial question: Do you have the strength, endurance and agility to survive in an emergency situation? Individuals often assume that adrenaline will carry them through a crisis, but how can someone escape a natural disaster, flee a burning building or carry a loved one to safety when they are too out of shape to climb a flight of stairs? Premiering Thursday, December 4, at 9 PM ET/PT on Discovery Health, COULD YOU SURVIVE? is a wake-up call to millions of unfit Americans who unwittingly put themselves in harm's way. Guided by health and fitness expert Dr. Pamela Peeke and a team of Marine trainers, the four-part series uses rigorous physical challenges and a tough-love approach to show that one's fitness level can mean the difference between life and death. In each one-hour episode, average people are tested against a simulated life-threatening situation to ascertain their ability to stay alive or rescue a family member under extreme circumstances.
