It’s no secret that there’s a lot of cutting at 7 vs. Wild. But something happened on Twitch streamer Trymacs’ birthday that was never seen in the episode. The streamer was outraged about this in his reaction to the episode.
What kind of birthday present was it? Maximilian “Trymacs” Stemmler had his birthday on August 19th during the suspension at 7 vs. Wild, at the same time as Sascha Huber.
On his birthday, the streamer took a trip to the coast of the island with his team partner Wieland “Rumathra” Welte. The two probably ran a few kilometers.
When Rumathra could no longer, Trymacs ran a few hundred meters further to a cliff, where he made an incredible discovery.
One of the participants in season 3 is the Twitch streamer Jens “Knossi” Knossalla. You can see more about him in our video.
What did he find there? According to his reaction to episode 12 of 7 vs. Wild, he found a cave formed by the ocean. There is said to have been a rock in the cave that looked out of the water.
According to Trymacs, a seal was sitting on this rock and he was able to get within about 15 meters of it. In his reaction to the episode, he describes the moment as if he were in a Disney movie. When Trymacs got too close to the seal, it probably jumped into the water.

Trymacs: “I’m speechless right now”
Why wasn’t the scene visible? That cannot be answered exactly. In the course of his reaction, the streamer answers questions from the chat. He claims he was not hallucinating and filmed the seal 3 times from different angles.
How did Trymacs react? At first the streamer was a bit surprised and said in the stream: “I’m speechless right now.”
In his reaction, Trymacs was particularly upset because the chat pointed out to him that Sascha Huber’s exclusive episode, which he received as a birthday present, had received 1 million views. However, what he considered to be the most blatant scene was not even shown in the series. Knossi also experienced something similar before and expressed criticism.
The streamer went so far in the stream that he sent a voice message to production. Here is an excerpt from the voice message:
[…] We had done the huge hike and, and, and. A lot happened there, I also saw a seal on my birthday in that little cave on the rock on the coast. What was ultra blatant, felt to me to be the most blatant scene in 7 vs. Wild, was not edited in. Was it there, wasn’t it viewed, or was the file incorrect, or did I not film it, but I think I took 4 or 5 shots, that can’t actually be. […]

Will we still be able to see the seal? Chances are good that you can still see the seal as long as Trymacs actually filmed it.
Last year all the episodes were released again uncut, with only minimal changes. That could happen again this year. There is also a chance that Trymacs will receive the recordings from production and upload them again as their own birthday special. Another participant received not just a birthday episode, but an entire special in which only he appeared.
