Stranded On Our Wilderness Island - Part 1 - S2 Ep5

[@teamicdee]

Added to the list: scuba suit and face mask! So glad you got it~

[@mywildholm]

😂 Done! The things we learn... Thank you for watching!

[@ozarkfamilyhomestead]

(from Shawn) Okay, first I am obviously way behind on the videos. That was the best one yet! I have a feeling that a cold weather wet suit will be available in the future. You may also consider a powerful magnet which can be dragged on the bottom with a rope for anything metal that falls into the water in the future. Goes to show how quickly a situation can become a struggle for survival. Thanks for sharing and stay safe!

[@mywildholm]

Oh you are so very busy that we don't expect you to be completely up to date - but that's the great thing about this - you can always come back anytime you wish. We have wet suits but they weren't with us at the time (they are now). So, good advice - and another great idea is to have a powerful magnet - that is sooo smart!! It might be fun to throw that in just for fun too. Yes, a situation really can shift plans in about one minute and one bad decision can put us in real trouble. We just didn't know what we would do - get the truck back when the ice froze in the winter? Ugh... these things are all adding to our 'not-to-do' list! Thank you for watching Shawn, and big hugs for Janice

[@emmaderuiter5192]

And goggles x 2!! And flippers. Omg that looked so cold, I would have been crying. Could have gone South quickly. Glad you are both okay.

[@mywildholm]

Thank you! We are happy the ordeal is over, and there might have been a little crying too 😆 🤣, if truth be told... -Ryan

[@NadesikoRose]

Snort, I was thinking a thermal wet suit as well if you couldn’t get the whole scuba gear set up. Maybe a powerful underwater lamp as well.

[@mywildholm]

Yes, more great ideas! You've sure got lots of them! Thank you for watching!

[@ritalemky]

Nope, couldn’t do it! 🥶🥶🥶🥶. I applaud 👏👏👏👏you guys! Your perseverance and ultimate success! Yeah!

[@mywildholm]

We did it Rita!! 💚

[@Destination_Fun]

Thank goodness you got that piece!! I have been at the edge of my seat!!

[@mywildholm]

Oh we definitely felt some anxiety as there just didn't seem to be any way out of it all - - thank goodness he finally just took the plunge... I sure feel for people who have had shipwrecks in the cold waters... it must be sooo awful for them.

[@charlenegrady8781]

Oh my. Lessons learned. Got to buy some wet suits. Good luck👍🇺🇸

[@mywildholm]

Oh yes, definitely lessons learned... Great way to put it! 💚

[@ArielleViking]

Great premiere... Dang that water looked cold. ❤❤

[@mywildholm]

It really WAS!!

[@timbjork2098]

your pain is our comedic gold. some of us has been there in the cold water and know.

[@mywildholm]

Oh boy... that days was a rough one. Thankfully Ryan was able to recover that lost piece and he fixed it all up. We can look back and laugh even more now. We laugh a lot together. That's what life is about and if we can't laugh at ourselves, others will... Thank you so much for watching! 💚

[@desertmermaid6625]

You two are too funny thank you for sharing your ups and your Downs but I got to tell you I never laughed so hard thank you❤

[@mywildholm]

Welcome to our channel! That was a little bit of a rough day but so grateful that it all turned out okay 💚 Thank you for watching!

[@agodlyhome]

Yay! You did it as a team. Great job to both of you.

[@mywildholm]

Ohhhhh it was soooo cold ❄

[@mygrannysgarden]

Wow, I was almost in tears for you guys. I am glad you were able to retrieve the part. Team work always achieve the goal. Thank you for sharing.

[@GrampiesWorkshop]

How's she goin'? What a time that was. Glad you got the sleeve. Congrats!! No go get warm and take care!!!

[@mywildholm]

Things are better now! It was a bit of predicament - we just weren't 100% sure how it would all turn it... Would we had to drive out in the winter on the frozen lake?!! Yikes ❄

[@GypsyDiamond]

Oh my that is hard trying to get into that cold water. I am praying you can get this done. Gypsy.

[@mywildholm]

Thank you so much! We appreciate you! 💚 It was a bit of a struggle!!

[@rickshort1287]

One more thing that might help is a long handle litter grabber. With your track record it will definitely come in handy😂😂😂

[@mywildholm]

That's hilarious! I actually have one of those from all of my spine surgeries... we still need it for regular life too 😆 🤣 Thank you for watching! 💚

[@charlesstuart1119]

❤😂definitely! Especially with her past back surgeries it is hard to do much!❤

[@mywildholm]

Thank you for the vote of confidence! We hope you are doing well... we missed these responses to our replies and are just now going through them... 💚

[@lraiingirl]

I haven't laughed that hard in years. You guys are amazingly entertaining. Thanks you.

[@mywildholm]

Thank you so much for watching! That was a tough day alright - looking back Ryan can laugh too and he does 💚Not quite as much on the day of, though... 😂

I’m holding my breath with you both. Praising for fortitude and perseverance ❤❤❤

Awww... Precious Anne!! Thank you 💚

[@littlegriffoffgridalberta6837]

Awesome team work guys ! Been there done that but not in that cold of water, Brrrr.... I have used a plastic taboggan to float under the motor to catch parts you drop, it work i dont swim lol,

[@mywildholm]

That is a really great idea!! We are learning so much from you all! 💛

[@anacleta424]

I’m in Florida where’s hot hot and I got COLD watching you going in that cold cold water.💕💕💕

[@mywildholm]

Not as cold as we did! That was oh so painfully cold and reading this comment made me shiver just thinking about it. Thanks so much for watching and enjoy the warmth down there! -Ryan.

[@BigJim-zh9gr]

Bless your hearts, you have got to have strong hearts or that would have killed you, that was scary. I am glad it worked out for you both.

[@mywildholm]

Thank you Big Jim! It was worrisome and a long time was spent contemplating (as you could tell)... Thank you for watching 💚

[@tiahill832]

Omg you guys, ❤❤😘😘

Thank you for watching! This was a tough day... we are thankful it worked out but there moments 😆

[@thisandthatadventures]

Oh poor Ryan! I could feel the pain! You too!! You both were so calm. I would be panicking lol. Glad you finally got that part!!

[@mywildholm]

Thank you so much! 💚 It was a lesson for us - water proof flashlight, goggles and wetsuits!

[@BramptonGardener]

YIKES!!!! Glad to know it worked out.

[@mywildholm]

This was a fun one :)

[@CoffeeWalksandWhatever]

Oh my Ryan I was in tears watching you in the water. Polar plunge. I'm so warm now. Wow that fire 🔥 felt so good. ❤

[@mywildholm]

😂 That was quite the production!!

[@MrsCoffeeWalks]

I’m sorry, but we laughed so hard! 😂🤣 Great job Ryan! Glad you got the part back!

[@mywildholm]

😂 Oooh my goodness!! I did too, when I watched the footage again... That day was a tough one but looking back at it was soooo much funnier after the fact for sure.

[@kathrynjones5858]

I advise you to get: a magnet on a stick (yes it's real), a wet suit, suba gear and face mask, a friend on the mainland with a boat, and radio gear to make contact with emergency services an mechanics.

[@mywildholm]

Yes! We actually have scuba gear now (since losing the drive sleeve adapter) and we are putting together a safety protocol that includes helpful phone numbers and so forth. We also have phone service via satellite so no need for radio (thank goodness). I suppose radio would be a good idea for a backup method of calling for help though... Thanks so much for the great suggestions! -Ryan

[@karenbrest187]

HELLO - bummer missed abit 🥺

[@mywildholm]

Thank you so much for coming in - - that's alright... you can always watch anytime that works 💚

[@susannelangridge4206]

I’m so glad you didn’t cut it out as requested. Laughed so much . 🤣🤣

[@mywildholm]

😆 Thank you for watching! Oh yes...I couldn't let that happen - authenticity always 😊

[@johnbolton9483]

You need a 8 foot Gaff and spare engine parts for all your underwater endeavors (and wetsuits).

[@mywildholm]

Spare parts are always a good idea, and wetsuits are a definite must if we are to ever get under this water again, yes. Brrrr- it was soooo cold!! Thank you for your support. -Ryan.

[@TheMadManPlace]

Now you have learned a very important lesson... DON'T WORK ON AN OUTBOARD MOTOR WHEN IT IS STILL ON THE TRANSOM . . . You guys have got all sorts of great problem solving skills.

[@mywildholm]

Oh yes! Definitely a lesson learned! Thank you for watching - off to tackle more problems 😆

[@David_Blong]

It was like watching a suspenseful thiller lol that would off been painful for you always a great video from you guys well done 🎉🐕 ❤

[@mywildholm]

It was certainly suspenseful for me! (and brutal, and miserable, and painfully cold, and...) Thanks for watching! -Ryan

[@gaye-mariewelsh8376]

I know the struggle was real, but omg, such a pair the 2 of you are. As a couple, you had me laughing out loud. Such coaching 😂 and encouraging 😅 each other. Good job. 1st timer watching, I will return. 😂

[@mywildholm]

Hello! Thank you for watching our channel! Yes, the struggle was real! 😆 🤣 we really just have to laugh when things get scary or hard... After all is said and done, it seems we do a lot of laughing. We love that you've joined our journey! 💚

[@Scarletsky138]

That was wonderful! You guys are the greatest! I was laughing and crying right along with you!

Yay, Ryan saved his man card. All kidding aside I have been ice diving and that cold water is so painful! Good efforts!

[@mywildholm]

😆 He sure did!! I couldn't let him lose it so I took one for the team 🤣

Thank you I have been laughing so much up down up down on that ladder and your sat there saying about your thin jacket 😂😊😂🤣😂🤣 That poor guy 😂🤣😂🤣hope his big toe hasn’t gone numb and dropped off 😮. He needs a snorkel and mask. Right show him how it’s done, no more talking just do it . Oh my it must be really chilly but so good for one’s mental health apparently ….thats if your brain doesn’t freeze Brrrrrrrrrq. Wow yer hubby got it well done well you hit plenty of trees to burn do your fire will keep you warm nice hot drinks hot water bottles and bed well done you two 🙏🙏

[@mywildholm]

Hey there!! Thank you so much for watching! That one was actually a bit of a gong show - poor guy was so cold. I really wanted to let him be the one to find it because he'd never forgive himself if I did.... (just teasing). It was sooooo cold! We have actually talked about taking those polar dips for blood flow - you're right, it is supposed to be a really good thing to do. 💚

[@merindahthornton5080]

I love how you both deal with challenges- with grace and creative thinking. 💕

Thank you for your kind words. We do fail sometimes but we really try as we realize we are a team and we need each other to make it all work. We appreciate your comments 💚

Thank you dear Diana!! You saw the one in edit mode yesterday - - - ughhhhh that was a shock to my system... sooooo sorry!!!!

[@jhart7451]

In the words of Forest Gump, "I am not a smart man!", however, after watching several videos with Ryan and equipment, I feel absolutely BRILLIANT!

[@mywildholm]

I can laugh at myself and I get the joke, so no worries. Like most people, I didn't know how to tie my shoes until I was shown how... and mastery at anyting requiring finesse takes practice and time... I have become much better at running and maintaining our equipment, but on the curve, I still have a ways to go. I have also learned that slowing down to allow for a judiscuous approach to any endeavour is a key requirement for success. -Ryan

[@jhart7451]

@@mywildholm I was just joking with you, Ryan. Even at 80 years of age I'm still learning new things. Just last month I learned that if you steam eggs instead of boiling them they peel a lot faster and easier. Life is a learning process and you're doing just fine! That's why I just subscribed to your channel.

[@heatherprus5364]

I'm at 15:30 in the video. As soon as the lake broke up where I grew up I would do a quick polar swim. Sometimes the ice was shifting a little further out. There used to be a couple other lake folks that try to be the first in. You have to go pretty quick. When you come out of the water you are kind of numb. I realize you're already beyond diving for pearls and on to your next event! I'm still trying to catch up from when you started this new phase of your lives. You had just bought the island and I'm a couple videos into it. I've got a long ways to go! 😊

[@mywildholm]

It was pretty cold - but it's actually kind of healthy for people. We are thinking of doing hydrotherapy type dips in the cooooold ocean this winter. It's so good for circulation and apparently is a really good thing to try to get used to. ❄

Suggest that you might want to secure anything over water. You had the camera and flashlight over the side of the barge without a safety rope.

Can you geta weight ona rope so you can always check the depth?

[@mywildholm]

Could do, but I think a depth sounder located at the bow with a display that I can hook into the console would be better for me as it wouldn't require me stepping away from the helm. Good idea though... it is always important to know when the bottom is coming up! -Ryan

I'm glad I found your videos. I'm a 62 yr old woman in Oklahoma of the lower 48. And in these rough times it's a breath of fresh air to watch you two and your sweet dog interact and live your lives. Im happy for you and pray only the best for you. I watched about the wild fires last yr I think it was, I just hate the devastation of our wild lands here and there. God Bless you all and stay safe.

You be better to just take the plunge

That water was heart-stopping cold. Words cannot describe the bone-chilling cold... it was truly shocking. If I would have just jumped in, it would have been a very different episode... Thanks so much for watching! -Ryan

Think about investing in a wet suit.

Thank you so much my friend 🧡 We learned our lesson the hard way and hopefully will be better prepared if there is a next time. Good advice! Thank you!

If he only knew what childbirth was like. He would choose the cold water. Freezing cold 🥶 water! That's painful in the water.

Right?! That's kinda what I was thinking in the very back of my mind... 😜

Ma'am why don't you go in.

[@mywildholm]

Yes, that would have helped us for sure. Why didn't we think of that? -Ryan
