[@dranelittle7726]

it's a complete waste of a week of calories and time, since you still need to waste 2 hours and 700 calories per day hauling and processing firewood. In one day, you can make a debris/ice quonset hut, stuffed with debris, that needs no fire, not even a sleeping bag, if you know to keep on your 6 layers of clothing, with debris between each layer. Until temps are consistently sub-freezing, all you need is a debris-pile inside of a tent made out of poles and the 20x20 tarp.

@Kevin Hart yeah you've been in solitary for 5 months "multiple times." not something to brag about, like... at all. Unless they gain more calories than they lose I wouldn't even call it "surviving." It's just staving off eventual starvation. But shoving yourself in a debris pile is stupid, you will mentally break down eventually. The show's time-frame doesn't matter. None of it matters unless it can indefinitely sustain you.

This guy built a whole log cabin!! Im impressed

[@dranelittle7726]

so what? doing so always causes them to starve out, so it's a mistake that the dummies keep on repeating. If they'd just make a tarp-tent and get busy fishing and stripping cambium, they'd have the strength needed, when temps are sub frreezing to make a much stronger, warmer shelter out of debris and ice. It's air tight, so you dont need a fire inside of it. Stuffed with debris, it doesn't even require a sleeping bag, unless you're dumb enough to remove your clothing when inside of it, have debris between each layer of clothing, too, in order to increase the insulative effect of that clothing.

As a angler, it angers me they get one fish and stop fishing. If you catch one, you have a good chance to get another in that small time window.

I think about that too, but I wonder if it becomes challenging to store fish safely and keep it edible

[@ered203]

Right? If you are smoking one, you might as well smoke 5, and kick back for a week or two.

[@zanderdev57]

well what are you going to do with the fish? if you catch a small one then definitely catch two but if you get a good sized trout then getting another will make it rot or attract something that wants to eat it. with perishables like fish (and smelly ones at that) it has to be done quick. storing meat is a luxury when he should try to store edible plants by drying instead

[@angelamartin2811]

I cried when he opened up about losing his little girl, it was heart breaking and to have a man that can actually open up and share his feelings like that is rare. I've been through horrible grieving, luckily not my kid, but every word he said is true. It comes in waves and it takes forever to move on. I truly think he thought doing this challenge would help him with the grieving process. But it was too soon and he realized it. He needed his family more than the money. It took a lot of courage for him to walk away (and admit that on TV). I wish him and his family only the best.

it's a mistake to have more than a tarp tent for the first month. Then, in one day, make a debris-ice quonset hut. The hut needs no external heat source at -20F if you know to leave on your 7 layers if clothing, with debris between each layer.

[@johnogrady2418]

No, this log cabin is one of the worst choices possible. These dumbasses are building log cabins when they NEED to be building the most basic shelter possible. His body energy would have been better spent on finding food but he wasted it all on this monstrocity. I have not seen this guy's story arc but I predict he will go the same way as the other log-cabin builder with the heart trouble.

[@danjett7719]

@@johnogrady2418 it's not just the shelter. The cabins are so ineffective that every day after they are built, you have to waste 2 hours every day, on hauling and processing firewood for them. Why can't these fools understand that? Its a waste of 60.000 calories, enough food for for 20 days. then they waste another 20,000 calories boiling 2 qts of water at a time, twice per day, instead of boiling 3 gallons at a time, once every 3 days. That saved month would have changed the name of the winner in 7 of the 8 seasons. and nobody's got brains enough to see that is the truth of the matter.

you can make a ring of stakes around your 'food trees" that wont let any animal climb it. You can also have a small, smoky fire that deters animals. With a horizontal line between a couple of trees, set out by themselves, you can toss a line over that line and use it to pull some tarp/tape food storage bags up in-between the trees. Once the weather is sub freezing, you can make an ice-debris igloo and store your food inside of it. Then nothing can access your goodies.

[@patrickd9551]

Loneliness, homesick, whatever you want to call it. Being in nature alone for long times at a time does strange things to a man. Clay was basically the same, he said he could do 90 days, but he would have to figure out how to get past that. So if it would come to the wire, Clay might also have pulled out somewhere in the 90 to 100 days limit. It's all determination. That fisher that was walking Clay's traps and eating his dinner might as well have been the final straw for Clay.

[@dranelittle7726]

@@patrickd9551 baloney. They quit cause they are starving. Roland lost 44 lbs. Jordan lost 25 lbs.

She made it 84 days on 10,000 calories, without a fire in her debris shelter. She lost 50 lbs.

[@patrickd9551]

@@dranelittle7726 Aren't you romanticizing the situation a bit? First of all, he did shoot a dear, providing him with 50 lbs of food. Allowing him to conserve energy in the first place. Weight loss? As if Clay didn't loose weigh himself. He was rationing snow rabbits in the end, his deer meat was gone. Lastly if that fisher stayed around, grabbing the rabbits before clay did, he needed to find a new resource of food. Securing enough calories is just one thing, survival is about a mental state too. And yes, Clay was strong minded, but he has his breaking point too. And that was the main point in my argument. It takes a special kind of man to survive alone for extended periods of time.

[@dranelittle7726]

@@patrickd9551 so? 50x 600 calories per lb for venison, 30,000 calories, enough food for 10 days, IF he mostly stayed holed up in a debris pile, not wasting 2 hours and 700 calories per day hauling and processing firewood. Biko had 90 lbs of blubber on him and should have been able to outlast him by 2 months, but he didn't know how to conserve his calories and also broke weak mentally.

pile up firewood, brush and small debris, cover it with the 20x20 tarp, pile on small debris, sprinkle with water, let it freeze repeat 2-3x. Light work, can do other things will waiting on the freezing. Can form the doorway with split logs, build wall around them. saves having to cut thru 6" of ice and debris when hut is finished. Use heated shovel to thaw/free-up the tarp from the ice/debris. Make a crawlway entrance in the same manner. Make a woven bough or withe/reed door, 2" thick and pack debris around it, Airtight shelter. Ice light-"glasses", 3" ID, easily made, too.

I never understood why most of these people didn’t build their shelters OFF the ground. That would have been one of my first and biggest goals. All of these locations were in areas where the ground is cold and wet. A shelter with a raised floor would have made it easier to stay warm and dry.

[@ironfae]

@Kevin Hart Yes, your plan is easy but it really wouldn’t last long enough for them to win. I think it’s worth the calories to build a better shelter. They can get better rest when they don’t have to worry about being cold and/or wet.

[@dranelittle7726]

when you waste 3 weeks and 40,000 calories on a silly cabin and hauling and processing firewood (over an 80 day span) it should not shock you to find that you dont have the time to make the netting, treblehook trotlines, the pontoon outrigger raft and feed yourself with same.

[@dranelittle7726]

People have stupidly latched-onto this idea that it's the shelter that saves you. and they dont know how to make the debris/ice quonset hut in one day. So they are scared that they can't feed themselves. So they waste a week on building a cabin, and then waste 2 hours and 700 calories per day hauling and processing firewood. If they knew how to make a proper shelter in a day, they could skip all that and get busy catching the 400 lbs of fish that a 6 ft, 180 lb man needs to catch in order to win while losing only 30 lbs. Every 10 lbs more that you weigh than that is 80 lbs of fish that you dont have to catch and 20 lbs of cambium that you dont have to peel. . This assumes that 80 days suffices to win, which it has in all cases but one.

[@stanzanossi]

Drane! You hit the nail on the head! As somebody who has camped out in the wilderness of Canada a lot, building a log cabin of some kind is a huge waste of time and energy! And that is even if you can find the wood and carry the tools with which to build it! A better idea is to simply build a rough structure of tree branches and leaves underneath a big coniferous tree, which you can do in a few hours! It helps to make this structure more rainproof if you carry a tarpaulin with you to put over the top of this shelter!!!😊

[@dranelittle7726]

Bring a Trefecta XL metallized Tyvek bivy, from 2GoSystems, not a sleeping bag, cause it's more versatile. You can wear the bivy as clothing, without worrying about its getting wet or torn. If need be, you can cut up the bivy and make more layers of clothing out it. Again, stuff debris between each layer of clothing. Dont wear your boots, socks or normal clothing out on the raft. Just wear the tarp, tape clothind, debris, booties and bivy when likely to get wet and have a fire, hot stones, dry debris and dry clothing nearby on shore whenever you're on the water.

a 230 lb, 6 ft tall man doesn't need to procure any food at all in 80 days, other than to harvest, dice, boil and fry the 17 lbs, 10,000 calories of cambium needed to mix with the 10,000 calories of rations that you take. If such a man knows to stay holed-up in a debris-pile, he'll lose less than 1 lb per day. 6 ft tall 140 lb marathoners are commonplace, so dropping your weight to 150 lbs is not a disqualification under the Alone rules. Every 10 lbs less than 230 lbs you weigh, you need to catch 80 lbs of fish.and you'll still win, as long as you mix it with the cambium and mostly stay holed-up, conserving your calories. This is IF you know to make your two shelters in 1 day each, make the four Baked clay pots, the pontoon outrigger raft, the pole array and hook/streamer-lure for trolling the 11 treblehook lines, all in 4 days and know how to not need a warming fire. If you weigh 180 lbs, you have to catch 400 lbs of fish and mix in 30-50 lbs of cambium (depending upon what your guts can tolerate) and you' lose only 30 lbs in 80 days, IF you know how to conserve your calories.

My favorite show! Jordan is one of my top favorites this season.

[@BLAZENYCBLACKOPS]

Season 7 was incredible and probably had the best group of survivalist I’ve seen to date. So far I’m only halfway through episode #1 of season #8 and this group is not impressive at all, Clay seems to be the only one fit for the task and even he’s mentioning missing his family already, not a mentally strong group at all.

[@billwithers1349]

it only takes one day to refine workable clay out of shoreline mud and another day to make the 4 one-gallon each baked clay pots with lids, as well as the 50 clay balls for use vs small game via the slingbow. So dont waste a pick on a cookpot. You can stone boil 3 gallons of water at a time, in tarp lined pit, and store it in the sleeves of your outer shell's jacket. You need to drink a gallon per day and boiling it in that pathetic 2 qt pot is a royal pita. another stone boiling pit should be used for cooking, since it's got food poisoning potential and need not be nearly as big.

[@dranelittle7726]

you wasted a week on the shelter, then wasted 2 hours per day hauling and processing firewood. That's how you fail.

If you catch one fish keep going till you have to stop or no bait or what ever man, set bird snars, rabbit snars squirrel snare and spears around your camp to help protect it.

[@kalle1689]

I dont understand why not all challangers cook the food in a cooking pot. Thats the best way to get most nutritions and calories from food, plant or animal doesnt matter. Then you can drink the water and get the rest of nutritions and hydratet with warm water to save calories. Besides in a competion like this its pointles to store dry fish unless its more than you can eat during a day. Its better to eat a loot during a day and store in some extra fat for the next day, everything to prevent weight loss.

[@dranelittle7726]

2 days to make the pontoon outrigger raft, oars, oarlocks, etc. 1 day to make the towed array of logs, treblehook trolled streamer lures. Parts of two days gone to make the baked clay cookpots. then either trolling the hooks, from the raftm bowfishing from shore peeling and cooking cambium, or making netting. Most of this inside of the tarp-tent or the debris-hut, in a pile of debris, conserving your calories.

The most irresponsible choice by the producers. Dangerous and cruel to watch people starve.I'm ready to push the button on this season.

[@melissajohnson2935]

Well they do select people that have proven they are capable of finding food. They put them in a area where there is ample resources but you have to work to get it. And let's not forget these people volunteered to do the show and are allowed to leave whenever they want to. They won't let them starve to death, they will eventually step in if they think your health has dangerously deteriorated. So no, definitely not irresponsible or cruel.
