The fierce jungle game is set to begin, but it appears that life in the camp will be difficult for most celebrities to survive, which is why Chris Moyles is not taking any chances of being the first to painfully exit the show.

To bait viewers, he is the first to provide a sneak peek into the jungle ahead of the show's premiere on Sunday. The radio DJ, who is currently residing in special accommodation with the rest of the celebrities, has revealed bits about their lives in the camp.
Chris has so far described how detached they are from the outside world, but was only given the opportunity to send a video message. To probably get some sympathy votes, the DJ used the opportunity to apologize to viewers for keeping the secret of his participation in the hit ITVshow.
According to Mail Online, the star DJ said,
Please watch the show, please vote. Just don't let me be out first! The embarrassment of having to go to the 5 star hotel. And as far as trials go... medical grounds... I've got flat feet so I can't do anything.
Anyway please support me in there, thank you and see you on the other side.
Chris expresses his fears
Molyes has not shied away from discussing his fears. He has stated that he is acrophobic, which is why he will not be able to perform well in certain tasks which involves heights. People have advised Chris to face his fears, but he believes otherwise. He stated,
Some people say if something scares you, then do it, but I am a firm believer you shouldn't scare yourself!
I am a big fan of my own comfort zone, too. I am petrified of heights and getting into camp will be a massive challenge for me. Even that rickety rope bridge makes my heart start going.
I have never jumped out of a plane or walked out on a plank on a high rise building before and I know I have got to suck it all up.
What he's been missing so far
Chris has been away from his comfortable life for a few days and he already misses his sweetheart, Tiffany Austin, his favorite tea, and his cats. He also misses his job at Radio X, and it will be strange for him not to show up every morning as he is accustomed to. Meanwhile, Toby Tarrant is filling in for Chris on weekdays from 6:30 a.m. to 10 a.m., according to Yahoo! News.
The cast in the jungle includes Boy George, Sue Cleaver from Coronation Street, Owen Warner from Hollyoaks, former England rugby player Mike Tindall, England Lioness Jill Scott, politician Matt Hancock, comedian Babatunde Aleshe, Olivia Attwood from Love Island, and TV presenters Charlene White and Scarlette Douglas.
In a few weeks, we'll find out which of these celebrities emerges from the jungle with the crown.
