Steve then heads into the blistering sun of the outback to fulfil a lifelong dream of finding the most venomous snake in the world, the fierce snake whose toxic strike has the potential to kill the whole crew. 

Then it is time for the team to head over to New Zealand and venture deep into the Waitomo caves, where he hopes to find an unusual predator that lures insects to their death with a lethal light show.
