Series 11: "The List" #3 - Thirty Crazy Things I Would Love To Do

This is the 11th series of the guessing game I posted in twitter and facebook.  For a backgrounder, please refer to my post entitled "Series 1: The List #3 - Thirty Crazy Things I Would Love To Do" dated 1/29/2012.


#12 Crazy Thing I Would Love To Do
SLEEP ON THE FOREST FLOOR WITH ALL THE WILD ANIMALS AROUND
    **************************************************************
     This #12 crazy idea was listed as one of my almost impossible missions in #10 ‘flying a jet fighter’. After landing my jetfighter somewhere in the remotest area of South America and accomplishing my death terrifying “skinny dipping” in the South of France, I was again given an incredible mission.  As an undercover agent specializing in almost everything, my assignment this time required the tracking down of a lion-like robot.  This lion-like robot (codename: Lion X) was a special machine used for counter-intelligence and espionage pursuits by the “war-instigating nation” which until now remains a top secret. 

     Due to a technical glitch, Lion X went wayward and his last position monitored was somewhere in a deep forest in the amazon. We were puzzled why he went there. The experts concluded that perhaps Lion X thought that he was a real lion and he went to the forest to find his family.
     Anyway, my mission is to find Lion X and deactivate him. And this required scouring the rainforest and sleeping on forest floor. It was quite scary since this place is teeming with animal life, especially insects and arachnids (like tarantulas). The largest animals in the rainforest generally live here, including gorillas, ante-eaters, wild boars, tapirs, and jaguars.  
     In order to help me with my mission, I home-stayed with the Yanomamo tribe of the Amazon rainforests of Brazil and Southern Venezuela.  This tribe had lived in scattered villages in the rainforest for hundreds or even thousands of years.  They had survived the wild animals with their natural instincts and some of their survival techniques such as hiding and camouflaging.
My mission was a success! My meeting with Lion X was an extraordinary moment of my life, as can be seen on these pictures!  He hugged me tightly when he saw me and later introduced me to his family! 



THE GUESSES
I am getting weirder and crazy-ier guesses.

@Enry Salandanan: Although my mission is not to have a date in the forest, it became a romantic moment when I met Lion X. We suddenly feel that we like each other. In the end, we had a romantic vacation in the forest!
