We are now stranded on this deserted island in the middle of the ocean, and

Present continuous

we're going to be stranded here for the next seven days.

Past simple

And that boat that just left was our only way out of here.

Despite its beauty, civilization has not been able to survive on this island for over 250 years.

But for the next seven days, we're going to try to.

And we only have around four hours until it gets dark.

So I say we kick things off by us going and looking for wood, and

I'm Ezzy, your real life English fluency coach.

Beast, is a famous YouTuber who does all these crazy challenges.

And right now, he and his friends are about to spend a week on an island with basically nothing.

So no hotels, no restaurants, no way to call for help.

When you're stranded somewhere, you're trapped there with no way to escape or get help.

Now, throughout this challenge, you're going to learn tons of other useful English expressions about facing dangerous situations, dealing with problems, and

So I highly recommend that you use the RealLife English app to save all these words and make sure you never forget them and really expand your vocabulary forever.

The link to download the app for free is in the description, and

I'll tell you more about it in a little bit.

Now let's dive in and see how they survived their first day.

we had to be careful because above you is the most dangerous tree on Earth.

It contains poisonous tree SAP that could literally kill you.

And meanwhile, Nolan and Mack were making a fire pit.

I'd say it's a pretty good fire, would you say?

Well, I'd say it's a pretty good fireplace.

And Sean started constructing the frame for our shelter.

Are you sure that's not gonna fall on us?

Feel like Sean's, like, our survival dad been called worse.

And while gathering some more materials, we came across some wildlife on the island.

It wasn't long until I found out why the chickens were afraid of us.

Were you gonna try to kill one of those chickens?

Jimmy, what did you eat for dinner before you got here?

We spent the rest of day one preparing our camp, which was pretty simple.

This is the fire and where we're gonna make food.

We pulled over our survival crate which contains food, water, and

most importantly, a flare in case someone gets hurt.

And by the time the sun went down, we had everything figured out.

It's the end of day one and I'm already starting to get a little sunburned.

I'm hoping to get some good sleep tonight and I hope it doesn't rain tomorrow.

And by we, I mean dad over there is going to build a bigger shelter.

During the first night of sleep, we tossed and turned a lot.

So it was a good thing we were fixing this the next day.

Alright, now let's learn all the advanced expressions that we just saw.

And by the end of this video, I bet that you'll be more capable of understanding the full video from MrBeast without subtitles.

So in a clip we watched in the beginning of the lesson, we saw that Jimmy and his friends are stranded on this island because they're both left.

But you could use this expression stranded in other situations too.

Like if your car breaks down in the middle of nowhere or if you miss the last train home at night.

Despite is a functional word used for showing contrast.

For example, you could say that Cristiano Ronaldo remains a great football player despite being already 40 years old.

Beast is saying here is, yes, the island is beautiful, but civilization still couldn't survive here.

We only have around four hours until it gets dark.
