Dead or Survive

1.27 4 YEARS ALONE: The Real Robinson Crusoe


Listen Later

Before Robinson Crusoe hit bookshelves, there was Alexander Selkirk — a real-life castaway who survived four years alone on a remote island in the South Pacific. Cheryl dives into the true story behind the legend: a marooned sailor, wild goats, and a battle against isolation that redefined what it means to survive.


Then Rob shifts gears (and reality) with a few Darwin Award winners whose survival instincts got lost somewhere between the mosh pit and the merch table. Whether it’s sneaking into a Metallica concert via rocket sled or trying to out-party the professionals, one thing is clear: Johnny does not know his limits.


🏝️ One man. One island. One goat-hunting survivalist.

🎸 One band. One plan. Zero brain cells.

🎧 Just another episode of Dead or Survive.
