- Host: [Josh is about to rappel down a dangerous cliff-face and asks mountaineer-guide Vaughn Hadenfeldt, who has tied their descending rope around a small tree that looks fragile:] So, have you used this tree as an anchor before?
- [Hadenfeldt, in a careless tone, answers that he has never descended from this spot]
- Host: [Josh worriedly tugs on the rope, then whispers to the cameraman:] Okay, it seems okay to me.
- [Josh looks down over the cliff-edge, which he is about to climb down, to a drop that looks like thousands of meters to the rocky valley below]
- Host: One of these days, I'll get used to doing stuff like this.
- [Cliff-climbing guide Vaughn Hadenfeldt begins to ask worried questions when he realizes that Josh has never done this before]
- Host: [Re the camera crew] They don't care if I die. It makes for good TV!
- Host: [looking into the camera, as he is about to climb down the perilous precipice:] Did I tell you that I love you, Mom?
- Host: [at the Chaco Canyon ruins, where the Anasazi had ruled and then vanished:] If only these stones could talk.
