You did not just win the series you won in life William. I thought that you came across so well that anyone who knows you would have been even more proud of you. What a test. Sometimes you might hear people saying "oh you are so lucky to be so talented" but that was only achieved after years and years of exploiting your interests, along with great knowledge passed down. You are top shelf when it comes to having talent. Such a humble but rewarding quest seeking joy where ever you can find it. Only the lucky few get to do. Your love of the "bigland" shined through. A big congrats to you and your family. All the best from the west of Ireland.

You certainly picked out 10 great things to use on your journey to survive in 84 days. All the information you just told us like putting your sleeping bag in your big coat to keep it dry, been very carefull about fires while sleeping , only putting 3 or 4 hooks out at time you where always thinking ahead on everything no matter what it was or what you where doing. You taught us alot, will me anyways on the things you done to stay warm and not go hungry. When your net got torn, you used rocks, tiny sticks and line to fix it. Pretty awesome I think.

William buddy, well done old man. I'm still picking my jaw up from the floor when you neck snared your first grouse. What an absolute unique skill and you did it time after time AND filmed it all. Another simple and masterful act was when on episode 11 or 12 when you snared the rabbit/hare. The little technique of placing boughs on either side to force whatever animal came through to pass through your snare, brilliant. My father and uncle taught me this technique many moons ago. It was so nice to see it in action. William I could go on and on from the ice chest to the lean-to, etc etc. You did NL proud, Canada proud and any true survivalist proud. Stay safe, live well and be good!! Much ❤ from a St. John's townie!!!

Thank god the program subtitled every time you spoke because none of us understood a word you were saying. JUST KIDDING. You are awesome, your family seems like a really nice bunch and I hope the best for you all going forward. And CONGRATULATIONS! QUESTION for you - did you just have one Canadian Gray with you hanging out for some food? Great shots on camera of them while you were about your business. You shared your food there. I picture myself in your position thinking I would have really appreciated the company in such a lonely place. How was it for you?

"And into the woods i go, to lose my mind, and find my soul". So fun to watch you patiently wandering around snaring birds. And caching food. You clearly had the winning attitude, and spirit.

I loved that you shared your food with Sassy. You taught us all that you don't need a "big kill" to win. I loved that you never preached to us about shit like some of the other contestants. You my man are the real deal. I know the money will be well spent, or in your case, saved up and wisely used and not squandered on trash. I loved your humility. God bless you brother.
