The popular reality show "The Last Hero" about the survival of celebrities in extreme conditions has gathered almost thousands of fans. The original idea of this project, the Russians "peeped" from their Western neighbors - Great Britain and the United States, as well as the ideas of many TV series and feature films. It turned out brightly - it was both interesting and pleasant to watch the adventures of celebrities. The eye of the viewer was pleased with the endless expanses of the sea, clean sands and untouched nature. Surely many would like to visit the islands where they filmed "The Last Hero".

Set in Bocas del Toro, Panama

In order to see the notorious scenery and visit the main location of the reality show, you will have to go to the Bocas del Toro Islands, conveniently located in the northwest of Panama. This is a group of not very large pieces of land surrounded by the Caribbean Sea. If someone is even more locally interested in where The Last Hero was filmed, then it is better to mention the group of Zapattilas Islands. In general, the total areaThe archipelago is 250 sq. km. There are only seven more or less large islands, but there are much more small ones - as many as 52. The main city of the entire archipelago is Bocas del Toro, which is located on one of the largest islands - Colon.

Tourist Paradise

At first glance, this place seems like a real paradise on earth. It is such a picturesque landscape that is shown in the hot in every sense advertising of the Bounty bar. These islands, where "The Last Hero" was filmed, attract much more than the Crimean Y alta or even Miami. Here you can find many secluded places where no human foot has yet set foot, but getting to them can be problematic. Wild nature silently triumphs over civilization, and menacing shark fins scurry in the distance above the calm surface of the sea. The water is clear and deep, but very s alty - a very suitable place for scuba diving.

Briefly about the TV project "The Last Hero"

16 contestants from the first season of the show spent 39 days outdoors here. They had to go through a lot in the fight for the top prize - $100,000. All contenders for the prize were divided into two tribes: Turtles and Lizards. When there were very few participants left, they were united into one team called "Sharks". The islands on which the competitions were held are very small - no more than two kilometers wide and the same length. From improvised food there you can get poultry meat, fish, crabs and a variety of fruits. But the heroes of the show "The Last Hero", ratherof all, they ate, including normal food, so you should not focus on this.

Bad weather on the islands sometimes happens, but not strong and does not linger for a long time, so the beach maintains a constant size and does not wash out. The film crew lived close to the characters in well-equipped bungalows, so the overall environment is quite pleasant, though not very civilized.

No trust in TV

Surely few of the viewers believed that the participants in the reality show really led the same life as Robinson Crusoe. However, it cannot be said that the Zapattilas Islands have harsh conditions for survival, quite the contrary. The place where The Last Hero was filmed looks more like a resort than a school of life or impenetrable tropics. It just makes me think again that you shouldn't believe everything you see on TV.

Life after the show

After the TV project, some participants (Sergey Sakin, Ivan Lyubimenko) wrote a book about their stay on the island. "The Last Hero" forced many to reconsider their usual life and make changes to it. The winner of the show Sergey Odintsov left his post at customs, opened a cafe and became a deputy of the Kursk Regional Duma. Inna Gomez continued her career as an actress, and Natalya Ten moved to Moscow to run her own column in the morning show on Channel One.
