America.
At a television station.
"Dammit!"
"Our show's viewership numbers have dropped again!"
"It's such a huge drop?"
"Ugh, everyone has gone to watch Man vs. Wild."
"That show is too good."
"Many of our American shows and series can't even beat it!"
"That's not necessarily true. We can always copy it."
"That's right, we can do a similar survival program!"
"It's too late now. Putting aside the fact that an identical show almost always isn't as good as the original, just who do you guys have in mind to invite as the host?"
"Anyone would do. There are so many survival specialists in the world."
"But can they eat alligators?"
"Uh…"
"Can they eat sharks?"
"Uh…"
"So tell me, who can we get?"
"…Well, alright then."
At this moment, the global television industry was in a state of helplessness.
Back then, they hadn't even considered Man vs. Wild to be an opponent.
