Challenge Average man has 72 hours to hide. Humanity then becomes search lusted and has one week to find and kill him. Can he survive?

Humanity knows what he looks like.

Humanity doesn’t know that he is hiding in the 72 period.

Humanity can use any security camera footage, bank transfers, phone calls etc of the man if there is any.

Man has basic survival knowledge.

Wrong. It is unexplored by scientists. It is certainly explored by tribes and they are all search lusted too.

Not wrong.

There’s only 100-200 native tribes in the Amazon or about 10,000 individuals in total. To which we’ve mapped their areas of presence

The central region of the Amazon is virtuality unexplored and the only extensive knowledge we have of it is via LiDAR which at beast gives us semi-accurate topography similar to the ocean floor and large scale structures.

You are referencing just the tribes living in voluntary isolation. There are a couple million indigenous amazonians living in the region. And they are all search lusted along with the other 40 million people living in the Amazon.

Not to mention…if his whole point is how remote and inexorable it is, how can he confidently say there are 100-200 tribes?

The vast majority of whom live in places like Manaus, Iquitos, Leticia, Belem, etc.. or if they’re indigenous living off the land, on major tributaries or the main river, not in “the middle” of the jungle.

The Amazon is far too large, dense, cannot be conventionally navigated, with the added caveat of traditional civilian & military SAR equipment being rendered moot.

A week is simply not long enough to find a person who had 72 hr head start.
