The sound design, the color correction, the editing, the audio quality, everything is top notch. So so impressed. This is Netflix level production and storytelling. Keep it up.

It's really interesting because I am "American"...well on an application I have to mark "African American" even though I have no family ties to Africa as I know it. So, I noticed that while watching this, I have an endearment in my heart towards the locals but , I also share a strong connectivity to you and your team as well. Because as American's, we are one culture. I don't know if that makes sense, either way... all of it combined was pretty gnarly. Keep up the great work guys! It's perfection.

I've watched 4 episodes of "Back to the wild" now, and it's the greatest shit i've ever seen. Way more capturing than any documentary or other similar tv show that could have shown the story, and with far better story telling than anything i've ever seen on KZbin. It is honestly a surprise that this channel doesn't have millions of subscribers.
