Season 2 episodes (12)

1 Slash and Burn
4/22/11
Dave and Cody show how lost hunters can survive in the harsh conditions of Tierra Del Fuego, just 500 miles from Antarctica. To demonstrate how to survive an extreme injury, Dave self-inflicts a laceration and uses black powder to cauterize the wound.
2 Buried Alive
4/29/11
Armed with what's left of an avalanche victim's gear, Dave and Cody show how to survive in the harsh Rocky Mountains. Facing sub-zero temperatures, they make their way down a jagged ice waterfall, build a snow cave and try to salvage a dead elk carcass.
3 Stuck In The Muck
5/6/11
Dave and Cody head into the Everglades to take on the role of airboaters stuck in a sawgrass prairie marsh under the blazing Florida sun. They must seek shelter in a nearby swamp where water moccasin, python and alligators lay in wait.
4 Bitten
5/13/11
Dave and Cody show how to survive the rugged jungle in Thailand using only the gear an ill-equipped ecotourist might carry for a day trek: a Thai jungle knife, steel wool, a sharpening stone, a damaged cell phone and a bag of tobacco.
5 Frozen Plains
5/20/11
Dave and Cody take on the scenario of two ranchers, stranded on the windy plains in the dead of winter. Their only survival supplies are the charred remains of a burned-down shack: an axe head, a bison hide, a glass jar, a metal tin and a steel striker.
6 Out of Africa
5/24/11
Cody and Dave take on a survival scenario in South Africa's backcountry where dehydration kills in hours and hungry super-predators kill even faster. Armed with nothing but a machete, they show how to escape the bush without getting eaten alive.
7 Out of the Clouds
5/27/11
Dave and Cody take on a survival scenario in the wet cloud forests of Panama with only a poncho, specimen jar and a broken lighter to aid in their quest for civilization.
8 Adrift
6/3/11
Dave and Cody take on the survival scenario of two castaways adrift at sea and show how to survive being stranded on a deserted jungle island in the South Pacific. This time, Dave goes barefoot.
9 Eating Dust
6/10/11
From the barren salt flats to the vast desert woodland, Dave and Cody battle the elements in the sun scorched desert of Baja, Mexico. With few supplies, they each demonstrate how to make use of an unlikely resource- urine.
10 Hippo Island
6/17/11
In Botswana's Okavango Delta, Dave and Cody seek to escape the dangerous and deadly hippo-infested marshland using only a dying GPS and waterlogged binoculars.
11 Up the River
6/24/11
In Kentucky, Dave and Cody take on a scenario of two kayakers who are dumped into the cold river just a few hours before sundown. To make things worse, they become separated from each other by two miles of rushing river. Then, Dave traps an irate skunk.
12 Road to Nowhere
7/1/11
In the isolated woods of Northern Maine, Cody and Dave take on the role of two travelers, lost and out of gas on an abandoned logging road. Their only resource is a broken down truck which they pillage for all it's worth including a can of dog food.

Dual Survival could have been hands down one of the longest running truly entertaining outdoors reality based programs on cable television. If only Discovery Channel had left the two original co-hosts, Dave Canterbury and Cody Lundin to remain on the show. But, tisk, tisk, Discovery Channel destroyed the show and disassembled it piece by piece firing what was an absolute irreplaceable duo. Instead, attempting to move forward by shoving down our throats a cocky, nasty, mean and quite frankly crazy man to continue on trying to fill the shoes of two men who were more entertaining and enlightening in their pinky toes than Joe Teti had to offer in his whole stint on the show. And the two newest co-hosts have failed to impress thusfar. If anyone is looking for a new program to watch, I strongly recommend Dual Survival. But only until Dave was fired. And if you want to watch Discovery Channel make their biggest mistake, then continue to watch the episodes with Cody Lundin and ick...Joe Teti. But once they fired Cody that was the last straw. Discovery imploded it's best program. Bring back Dave and Cody and you bring back quality entertainment. Until that happens I only recommend purchasing Seasons 1-3 and 4 if you can swallow that many episodes with Joe Teti.

Matt and Dave are great together. Cody loved em I just wish he would consider wearing shoes so people could be focused more on the survival techniques instead of his feet because the whole time he's walking barefooted it seems like people are worried that he's going to get his foot cut and that he would be a burden to his partner who is trying to get out of there alive . Other than that I think any episode of Dual Survival is awesome need more seasons of it. I'd like to see more Matt team up with anybody

Dave Canterbury Joe Teti and Matt Graham made this show a great success but Matt & Joe are the BEST Duel Survival Team they've put together. Don't get me wrong Dave and Cody they were a really good team they started the show off great and it continued into Matt & Joe but I can't even stomach season 7 those two guys are horrible as a team, I can't even blame Grady Powell because he was great in Ultimate Survival Alaska but Bill is trash, still the first 6 seasons 5 Stars.
