Each of the six episodes will feature Colombian adventurer Daniel Tirado and Mexican army veteran Alberto Pegueros surviving in extremely remote wild Aztec lands and putting their skills and knowledge into practice in order to make their way back to civilization safe and sound. Together, they have to avoid danger, predators, and find food, water and shelter. However, conflicts are not only limited to wilderness, and each man's survival skills might not always match those of his partner, so combining techniques and living together could become the greatest of challenges for both men.

DESAFÍO X 2: MÉXICO is an original production by Discovery en Español under the supervision of Michela Giorelli, Vice President of Production and Development, and Javier Chuecos, Production Supervisor.

As part of 'Jueves de Aventura' (#DiscoveryAventura), Discovery en Español also brings the following action-filled premieres full of adrenaline, new challenges, and countless extreme situations:
