00:04 So today we decided to talk about Koh Lanta,
00:06 you know, this famous show broadcasted on TF1,
00:09 which is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year.
00:10 A show which is named after a famous chief of Thai tribe.
00:13 That's wrong! If you want the real reason, go to Wikipedia
00:16 and stop breaking our lychees!
00:17 So the principle of this show is as simple as winning a tennis against a manchot.
00:21 About twenty candidates who wanted to prove that Robinson Crusoe was in the game
00:25 were sent to a desert island to survive there for about forty days.
00:28 With a key for the last survivor, a check of 100,000 dollars and 20 kilos less.
00:33 Which makes it an alternative to the camp diet, quite viable.
00:36 Because yes, it's not an island like Tahiti where you are welcomed with flower necklaces
00:39 while the Vahine dance around you while doing a Spanish ballet.
00:42 No, Koh Lanta doesn't pay you holidays, but rather days of suffering.
00:46 You are here to take on a multitude of challenges in order to deserve your 100,000 dollars.
00:50 In Koh Lanta, the candidates will be left alone with their fate,
00:52 with the main priority of meeting their primary needs.
00:56 Be it drinking, eating, sleeping and fucking turtles.
00:58 Knowing that the production won't give them a single loaf of bread.
01:02 Oh yes, it's jackals!
01:03 It's in a way a real return to the Stone Age, filmed by cameras at 20,000 dollars.
01:07 Behind which there will be cameramen who, on the other hand, will eat to their fill
01:10 while arguing the candidates with sausages and other turkey skewers.
01:14 While these gallerians of the Papu tribe will struggle to catch an old fish
01:18 which, despite this generous breast, will not be enough to feed a single person.
01:21 But they will split in eight to not get fired at the next council, like...
01:25 So I decided to vote against Timothée because he ate all the rice on the first day
01:28 under the pretext that he was hungry.
01:30 And I'm not hungry, we're all hungry, for fuck's sake, I'm fed up!
01:32 So Timothée, I decided to vote against you because I actually hate you!
01:36 There you go, I'm not afraid of words, so I want to clarify that I have no particular reason.
01:39 I hate you, that's all.
01:40 Timothée, the adventurers of the tribe have decided to eliminate you and their sentence is irrevocable.
01:45 Yeah, well, I don't care anyway because I also voted against myself,
01:48 you bunch of big-ass losers!
01:50 It's not you who kicked me out, it's me who got out on my own,
01:52 booyah!
01:52 No honor, no cultivation, I'm out!
01:55 Because yes, Koh Lanta is initially a team game against the yellow-reds.
01:58 Well, yes, sometimes there are blue, orange or purple,
02:01 but generally it's yellow and red.
02:02 And when you arrive on the island, whether in Papua New Guinea or the Philippines,
02:05 on a boat or in the Delta Plain,
02:07 you and your team will be equipped with two machetes for 12 people
02:10 in order to build a small local fortune camp for you.
02:13 And if you don't want to get eliminated by your teammates because their sentence is irrevocable,
02:17 you'll have to show your true colors and make yourself useful within your team.
02:20 But be careful, you have to find a balance, a kind of right environment.
02:23 Because if you're too bad, your team will kick you out right away
02:25 because you're running out of rice reserves.
02:27 And if you're too good, they'll kick you out a little later
02:29 to increase their chances of winning.
02:30 So personally, I think it's easier to create your own startup
02:33 in order to make a fortune in the local fortunes
02:35 rather than to win Koh Lanta after surviving the Cheetah Pigeon Challenge.
02:38 Because yes, in addition to being hungry and poorly housed,
02:40 which will greatly reduce your physical abilities,
02:42 you'll have to do challenges that will have a direct impact on your adventure,
02:46 starting with the comfort challenges.
02:48 So be careful, the goal won't be to sit on a massive sofa for hours.
02:52 No, these are complex and intense challenges like all the others.
02:55 Especially the Parnassus Challenge, where the goal will be to procrastinate as much as possible.
02:58 That's wrong, you'll obviously have to hang on to a rolling pin like this for hours.
03:03 But this will allow the winner to improve his/her quality of life on the island
03:06 by obtaining a pan, a flashlight or even a Tamagotchi.
03:09 But there are also and especially immunity challenges
03:12 that allow you to win, if you win them, a immunity totem
03:15 that, in addition to serving you with pretty decorations next to your fireplace,
03:18 will allow the team to escape the elimination council.
03:21 Which is quite practical in a game where the goal is not to get eliminated,
03:25 by burying the victory and the 100 000 balls that accompany it at the same time.
03:28 Even if in the end, money is more than a carrot than an objective,
03:30 surpassing yourself is the real wealth of this adventure.
03:33 It's not because it's TV that everything is tricked, I mean, I guess.
03:36 I'm not a friend with Denis Brogniart, so I don't have access to the backstage, leave me alone.
03:40 Because yes, how can we talk about Koh Lanta without mentioning the fabulous Denis Brogniart,
03:43 who became a true Internet meme thanks to his famous...
03:46 Ah, that is to say, there are people who dream all their lives to be noticed by the universe
03:50 by trying all kinds of stratagems such as leaking their own sex tape.
03:53 And the good old Denis, he made the buzz in just one syllable, which is frankly respectable.
03:57 Personally, I only know the recipe for the bad buzz in one word, and it's clearly less useful.
04:01 Especially since my little heart would not stand the pressure of being on top tweet
04:04 after repeating the word "Hitler" 5,000 times in less than a minute live on Twitch.
04:08 Finally, Denis has been presenting the show for almost 20 years now,
04:11 and during all this time, he has seen candidates more motivated than the others.
04:15 People who are laughing, people who are smiling, people who are dead too, because yes, it happened.
04:18 But in the end, every year, after weeks of struggle and survival,
04:22 the Koh Lanta adventure gives birth to a new hero, a new legend,
04:25 who will then be invited to a whole bunch of special editions,
04:28 like Koh Lanta the Legend, Koh Lanta the Revenge of Heroes,
04:31 or even Koh Lanta and the Return of the Jedi.
04:33 There you go, that was the not-so-surprising summary of Koh Lanta.
04:36 I hope you enjoyed it.
04:37 I invite you to share this video with all the adventurers apprentices you know.
04:41 And to go check out Tipeee to support us as much as possible.
04:44 With that, I go back to training for the "Poteaux les poteaux" challenge.
04:46 I'll see you next time, ciao ciao!
04:48 Hehe, that's a ridiculous ending!
