instead of the idiotic setup "let's film a guy pretending he is talking to someone when he really isn't" would it really be that much more cost and effort to make it into a real interview where 2 persons have a conversation on camera?

[@jodi_kreiner]

this man just dropping the most INSANE life experiences like he’s describing a trip to the grocery store 😭😭 “we were laid on our backs and cut repeatedly with bamboo blades… which was not ✨good✨” “and they were assassins and hitmen and bodyguards for pablo escobar, and I got away with it 🤷‍♂️” “the hardest of all is the arctic… you can fall through the ice and die in 30 seconds, maybe a couple minutes if you don’t have a heart attack [..] so off I went, and it was terrible” “I’ve almost died 9 times” like BRO 😭😂

[@ak47marx16]

It's easy to judge a man when you are commenting on a phone in a safe environment with stomach full of food. But truth is none of know what we are actually capable of doing to survive when dying.

[@philipminns3933]

Yeah. Which is why most of us wouldn't put ourselves in that situation. Doing so is selfishness, nothing more, and dressing it up as pseudo-spiritual self-development doesn't successfully occlude that.

[@BrianBorusNephew]

[@KingFreddeh]

[@thebigalow2]

Absolutely correct. Nobody really can say what they’d do in that situation unless they been there

[@CRixon13]

I have a dog and can not imagine doing anything to cause him harm. However, unless you have truly been in a life or death situation I dont think anyone should judge him for making that choice. No of us know what choices we might make to live given those circumstances.

[@MonkeyLiggaScrumptiousNan]

@@CRixon13 would you decide you want to be an “explorer” and put yourself in that position and danger voluntarily because it’s your “dream”? He chose to do that it was his dream and what he wanted but he clearly didn’t want to deal with the potential consequences if things went wrong, it’s more then fair to judge him because most people wouldn’t voluntarily put themselves in this kind of position in the first place.

[@bubblesculptor]

A dog would probably consider it an honor saving their owner's life

[@MonkeyLiggaScrumptiousNan]

@@bubblesculptor you have absolutely 0 evidence to support that nor are you qualified to answer a question like that on behalf of all dogs ever. All living animals have a survival instinct, it’s kinda the whole point of every living species they don’t want to die so why would dogs be any different, it’s insane to think you actually believe that a dog would consider it an honour to be killed by someone it trusted instead of looking after the dog. I doubt the dog who would have been panicking and yelping in pain when this bastard was killing it felt like it was an honour to “save” his life aye just common sense that seems to be rare nowadays.

How telling that he didn't even mention the name in this interview. He seems to claim that the dog was nothing but a resource, and a companion and friend, as is convenient to him. All his framing of interactions with other beings (human or otherwise) seem predicated around obscuring the fact that that he sees them as objects to be used in the service of his own 'journey'. In an entirely unrelated statement, I happen to be totally unqualified to diagnose psychopathy.

[@carolyndelong4737]

What an incredible story!

[@Dr_Vix]

He didn’t need to eat his dog. I’ve seen so many of these stories and experienced something similar. His little dog had found him after all that time. If he’d researched going properly, there are so many food sources. The trees in that jungle has one variety which you can literally break off, peel and eat like a banana. Should have taken the time to learn about the environment, you shouldn’t go somewhere like this without being confident you can survive on your own and know the risks. So sorry to the wee dog 🤍

[@Girl95szia]

You clearly think that eating an unknown amazonian plant vs a dog is safe and realistic choice? You clearly never was in a situation sick, alone and desperate. Even if he learned about them from books and stuff, being alone in a dark and damp forest where you hardly see, I think you do make choices that don't fit the western mindset. I wouldn't be so judgemental.

[@Dr_Vix]

@ Ok. Well that’s your opinion so whatever, you want a certificate? . The point is they are not unknown. You identify the plant, it’s not that hard. Yucca root for starters, that’s packed full of carbs & vitamins. Acai berries…most idiots could identify both of these. My point is that he should have learnt about where he was going to… especially given his goal. Food sources. How to make a fire. How to use trees etc to make a shelter. The very basics!!! Or he could just tell his boo hoo story about eating his dog. Which he puked up and didn’t actually consume.

[@BR-it2qe]

​@@Girl95sziahis point is that if the guy learned about the forest, then it would have been different and I agree. He didn't say "go eat unknown plants"

I have three dogs that have been by my side for 8 and 11 years every day, except 4 days in total when I left them at a pet hotel. One of my dogs is like a garbage disposal and never turned down anything to eat. He loves food. When I got back from my trip, the vet said he had been throwing up and has barely eaten anything. No judgment to Mr Allen, but my dogs are like my kids and I love them to death, literally. I would risk my life to save them, and wouldn't save my own life if it meant taking theirs. With that said, I don't have kids so...

You also can't just pretend that they mean nothing because they're "just a dog". It's not about just "being given a name and letting it sleep on your bed", you build a bond, a trust with them. Dogs have legitimately saved people and can do amazing things even humans can't. Most people can't *SMELL* cancer, most people can't *TELL* when someone with a chronic condition is gonna pass out in 5 minutes. Let's not forget travel dogs like sled dogs being used to transport medicine through the harsh blizzards, or dogs who dig out people buried by avalanches.

@@AlphaGamer1981 dude, he did that when he was a very young man. I doubt he worked in that warehouse his whole entire life. Get real and pay attention.

[@CenturionMacro]

@@OfficialBigDaddyBC he started to get some sponsors for his big expeditions but the adventures he had living with various tribes was done cheaply, he pretty much bought a flight to the place and then moved in with the local tribes. Now he goes around and does talks on his adventures, he was also in a tv series for a bit which I think you can find on KZbin

[@jeremywanner4526]

Obviously he couldn’t,that’s why he ate Fido

[@Gilsworth]

If you're living off the land then you don't need that much money to get by, especially in a country where your currency goes a mile where the local currency gets an inch. It also wasn't his hobby, but his job. He monetized his adventures by making a documentary.

Have to eat. I don't blame you at all. It's normal in Asia anyway right?. God bless you 🙏

[@philipminns3933]

Ok, so... he's inconvenienced others (and no doubt taken their resources) and caused the death and suffering of his 'friend', in the service of his own entitlement and because of his own hubris. What has he contributed? I haven't finished the interview yet - maybe that will be revealed...

[@philipminns3933]

'I can hardly remember it now... I was delirious...' ah, man, take responsibility. He says this decision was 'given to' him (and he again mentions his young age). No, you put yourself willingly in that situation, and willingly took the decision. Which is fine, but you're now doing all you can linguistically to frame yourself as passive.

Hey don’t nock it before you fry it that’s what I always said!

[@rogersimmons8788]

Was it a sausage dog by any chance?

[@jakealcock5905]

I can’t imagine going to the Amazon with no survival skills 😅

[@carefreemc1445]

There's a parasite in the Amazon that will swim up stream of pee and into your urethra! That place is terrify

[@charliesauntie7197]

Awful, I'd have died with my dog.....

[@JJC257]

[@meeranaam]

[@teokastelan2930]

[@JBo77]

Do not give this dude a dog lol. The second time he lost multiple dogs in the artic because he couldn't find his way back to them. Edit- he luckily found them
