  • - I was getting kinda cool shots of the wind

  • in these coconut trees.

  • I love that movie Cast Away, where Tom Hanks

  • is throwing the coconut at the rocks,

  • and I kinda wonder if it's really that hard.

  • You think I can climb up there?

  • - [Voiceover] I mean, maybe, it's a little windy.

  • Aren't you afraid that you're gonna get blown off the tree?

  • - No, I'm like a cat climbing trees,

  • I think I can do this, I got this GoPro.

  • Alright, ready?

  • I'm gonna climb it.

  • - [Voiceover] Alright, go for it.

  • - [Coyote] Alright.

  • - [Voiceover] Are you gonna get a green or a brown coconut?

  • - I'm gonna try to get one of each.

  • - [Voiceover] Careful.

  • Wow, you did it.

  • - I got an iguana.

  • - [Voiceover] Iguana, nice!

  • - I'll put it in my pocket.

  • I'm up in the tree.

  • - [Voiceover] Are you still gonna get a coconut?

  • - Yeah.

  • Look out.

  • - [Voiceover] Whoa.

  • - [Coyote] Oh man, did it fall in the water?

  • - [Voicoever] Yeah, hold on, let me see if I can get it.

  • Got it, I got it.

  • - [Coyote] Alright, I'll get a brown one.

  • Woo!

  • - [Voiceover] Okay.

  • - Alright, I'm coming down.

  • - [Voiceover] Alright.

  • - Ahh.

  • That's rough on my coconuts.

  • Holy cow.

  • Look at this.

  • (laughing)

  • I caught an iguana while getting coconuts.

  • Come here, little guy.

  • I'm speechless right now.

  • Victory.

  • - [Voiceover] An iguana and two coconuts.

  • - An iguana and two coconuts.

  • Alright, let's get out of the wind

  • and figure out how to open these up.

  • (tribal music)

  • Hey everyone, I'm Coyote Peterson,

  • and welcome to our new segment, On Location.

  • This is gonna be a behind-the-scenes look

  • at all the stuff we do when we're not filming

  • and catching animals.

  • This morning I climbed up a tree and got these two coconuts.

  • I also caught an iguana, which was pretty cool,

  • because animals just make it into everything that we do.

  • Now the brown one sounds like it has a lot

  • of coconut milk in it, and the green one

  • just sounds like it's solid.

  • Now I've never opened up a coconut before,

  • so this is new for me.

  • I'm gonna go with the green one first.

  • I'm gonna use my SOG SEAL Pup and see if I can get

  • into this thing without cutting off my finger.

  • Alright, you ready?

  • - [Voiceover] Alright, hold on a second.

  • Have you done this before?

  • - No, I've never opened a coconut before.

  • I've also never climbed a palm tree to get a coconut,

  • or climbed a palm tree to get a coconut

  • and catch an iguana, so it's a first for everybody.

  • - [Voiceover] So safe to say you're a coconut rookie.

  • - Yes, I am a complete rookie

  • and I hope I don't cut my thumb off doing this.

  • Alright, you ready?

  • Here we go.

  • Oh, that's actually a lot softer than I thought it would be,

  • it's kinda like a mango.

  • One of my favorite movies is Cast Away with Tom Hanks,

  • and he just kept bashing those coconuts

  • against the rocks, trying to get them open.

  • I was like, "Really?

  • "Is it that hard to open up a coconut?"

  • I think that the brown ones are actually the ripe ones,

  • so this may be a non-ripe coconut.

  • Okay, I got this cut into several sections here.

  • See if I can, there we go, look at that.

  • Yes.

  • - [Voiceover] Progress.

  • (Coyote grunts)

  • Okay, tell us what it smells like.

  • - Ooo, it smells like a pumpkin.

  • - [Voiceover] Really?

  • Let me see it.

  • I don't think you're supposed to eat that.

  • - You're not.

  • - [Voiceover] Yuck.

  • - I just wanted to see what it--

  • - [Voiceover] Yeah, I coulda told you that.

  • - I just wanted to see what it tasted like, not good.

  • Now I think if I get this husk all the way off

  • then I can chop into the actual coconut fruit inside there.

  • That is the coconut.

  • Well, the good part of the coconut, right there.

  • Eat your heart out, Tom Hanks.

  • I'd say what, less than five minutes

  • and I got that thing pretty well husked down, huh?

  • Wow, there it is.

  • That is exactly what I was after.

  • Okay, now we're gonna get into--

  • - [Voiceover] Coconut number two.

  • - coconut number two.

  • I'm excited about this one, see if you can hear that.

  • (water swishing)

  • That one's full of coconut milk.

  • Oh yeah, now we're getting somewhere.

  • Oh wow, now that looks like a coconut.

  • (grunting)

  • Tom Hanks, if you're watching this right now,

  • you shoulda gone after the brown coconuts,

  • much easier to get into.

  • There is the coconut, wow.

  • (laughign) Look at that.

  • Okay, green coconut, brown coconut.

  • Sounds like it's full of coconut milk.

  • Sounds like a rock.

  • Only thing left to do now is cut into both of these

  • and have some breakfast.

  • Alright, I'm gonna get into this one first

  • and see if there's any coconut milk in there.

  • Yes, look at that, there's the coconut meat right there.

  • - [Voiceover] Oh, nice.

  • - Oh, we are in.

  • I'm gonna give it a go here.

  • - [Voiceover] Drink it like Tom Hanks,

  • make sure you get it to run down your face.

  • (laughing)

  • - Oh, it actually is pretty good, right?

  • - [Voiceover] Yeah.

  • (laughing)

  • - Yeah, that's good, that's really good.

  • Alright, well let's open up the brown one.

  • Wow, that's refreshing. (laughing)

  • Coconut breakfast, alright, here we go,

  • let's get into this one.

  • You ready?

  • - [Voiceover] Yeah.

  • - It's okay.

  • Mmm, the green one, much tastier

  • than the milk coming out of the brown one.

  • Okay, now I wanna get into meat.

  • Look at that, it's like gelatinous, almost.

  • Alright, that is the meat of the green coconut.

  • It has the consistency of raw fish.

  • I'm gonna give this a go.

  • They don't really taste like anything.

  • Ugh.

  • - [Voiceover] Nothing?

  • - You ever had sushi from the grocery store

  • that's like four days expired?

  • - [Voiceover] No.

  • - That's what that tastes like.

  • But not fishy, just like--

  • - [Voiceover] You're eating the wrong sushi, man.

  • - Okay, green coconut meat, not so good.

  • Green coconut milk, delicious.

  • Alright, now let's get into the brown coconut

  • and see what this meat is like.

  • Alright, I'm gonna bust this open on the rock,

  • you ready?

  • One, two.

  • (laughing)

  • Now that looks like a coconut.

  • You can see the difference in the thickness of the meat.

  • This is definitely underdeveloped,

  • where that looks like real coconut.

  • - [Voiceover] You could just eat that right there.

  • - That looks delicious.

  • Alright, I'm gonna give this a go, you ready?

  • Oh yeah, (laughing) that is good coconut right there.

  • Wow, holy cow.

  • Mark?

  • - [Voiceover] Okay, let me try.

  • - Give that a go, buddy.

  • - Oh yeah.

  • - Mhm.

  • - [Mark] Yeah.

  • - That's delicious.

  • Mario, you wanna try this?

  • - [Voiceover] Sure.

  • - Here you go, buddy.

  • - It's good.

  • - [Coyote] It's pretty good.

  • - [Mark] You know who else, I think,

  • might want to try that?

  • - Who's that?

  • - [Mark] Our new friend.

  • - Oh yes, hey Mario, where's Wilson at?

  • Wilson, hi buddy.

  • Well, I hope you guys enjoyed

  • our first On Location segment.

  • Climbing up a tree, catching an iguana,

  • getting a green coconut and a brown coconut,

  • opening them both up, trying the milk,

  • and then, of course, trying the meat.

  • What we've determined from this is that iguanas are awesome,

  • this is Wilson, and that the green coconut

  • has delicious milk, not so good on the meat,

  • and the brown coconut, don't drink the milk,

  • but eat the meat.

  • You want some?

  • I'm Coyote Peterson, be brave,

  • stay wild, we'll see you on the next adventure.

  • I named him Wilson because Tom Hanks

  • named that volleyball Wilson in Cast Away.

  • I think that's the fitting name for this iguana.

  • Don't ever leave me, Wilson.

  • Don't ever leave.

  • You're my best friend.

  • Can I have a kiss?

  • Wilson, no!

  • Oh, Wilson, no!

  • I'm sorry, Wilson. (fake crying)

  • Thought of Tom Hanks.

  • Thanks for joining us On Location.

  • on this season of Breaking Trail.
