Survivorman | Argentina | Les Stroud

[@jordanpayne6838]

I was stuck in the bush for 12 days, all I was thinking is “what would les do?”. I’m a professional hunting guide from Newfoundland Canada. I guide in remote areas only accessible by float plane or helicopter. I was guiding an elderly gentlemen from Florida. We were hunting moose. He ended up falling down and breaking his leg, he was at least 260lbs so there wasn’t any chance of me carrying him out. we had enough food for one night, the rest of our provisions were at camp 10 miles away. I put a splint on his leg and made sure he was comfortable, then I lit a fire and started making a shelter with the 10x12 tarp I always carry. We ate the food I had then tried to get some sleep. The next day I took his rifle and went looking for food, never had any luck. Just picked about a gallon of blue berries. And collected water from a spring I knew that was in the area. On the 4th day I shot a young black bear, he weighed around 120lbs. About 70ish lbs of meat. We didn’t get hungry after that. On the 10th day we were supposed to be picked up at a lake where we set up base camp, I knew when we didn’t show up they would look for us. On the 12th day I heard a helicopter and loaded the fire up with green spruce branches and moss. The helicopter spotted us and we were saved. That was the only unsuccessful hunt I’ve had in 15 years of guiding but it was the biggest tip I got, he gave me a 5000$ tip. He said “your an incredible guide, you went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable. I’ll temper this trip until the day I die”. That was in 2010. To this day he still sends me 1000$ every Christmas.

I have always been obsessed with wilderness survival since like the age of 10. And I'll be 25 this summer I have never been in a survival situation ever. I hunt and fish, im a avid outdoorsman I love the outdoors, I live in Minnesota and deer hunting is my favorite time of year in the fall in November. I'm leaving for lake of the Woods in may for five days right after mothers day for a yearly fishing trip with my Dad and some family friends. I always have a survival scenario in my head not out of paranoia but what would i do if this situation happened. What would Les do. Great story and for keeping that man alive for 12 days is incredible no joke. You are defiantly a hero and inspiration to never give up.

I hope Les gets to read this. I never been in a survival situation. But when I was in college. I was poor,alone, and very depressed. I used to study for many many hours. I truly hit bottom low. But I used to look forward to watch Survivorman and eat my Ramen noodles. Today I consider myself successful, I am blessed with a beautiful family. I am in shape and I am happy. But every now and then I would eat my ramen noodles and watch Survivorman. It puts a smile on my face. I feel like I owe you one. Thank you sir. I appreciate you

[@NiceRage2009]

One thing I find admirable about Les is that he doesn’t pretend to be an expert at anything and everything. Like being a horseman. He fully admits to being a novice. He got bucked off one of the horses, and he didn’t NEED to tell us all that, he choose to tell us. Many other survivalists wouldn’t have put that into their documentary, so I really respect that.👏🏽👏🏽

I love how Les interacts with the horses despite not being experienced with them, the way he handled the horse spooking in the beginning of the video without getting angry or reacting harshly definitely prevented that situation from being very bad! When I first saw him putting the pack on and how far back it was, I thought "Oh no, this is not going to go well" lol

This episode was a little bleak, but I got some comic relief every time Les said "horse tackle" lol. Do you prefer using fly or bait to catch your horses? ;) In all seriousness, tho, as a somewhat experienced horsewoman, I gotta say Les handled it real well when the horses got spooked. I was impressed. You gotta show confidence and calm, even when you're feeling nervous or stressed on the inside. Although Les isn't an experienced horseman, his past experiences dealing with difficult survival circumstances and encountering large predators gave him the skills he needed to do just that. I bet these horses made him miss ol' Flint and Remington. Those were some fine, well trained animals. Another great Survivorman episode in the books. Thanks, Les! You're one in a million.

Inspired by Survivorman my wife and I have gone on a few backpacking trips. One trip we got bogged down by a tropical storm that wasn't supposed to hit us. I know exactly how it feels to be trapped. Thankfully it was summer but all we had was a tiny 2 person tent for shelter, and the rain made sure to saturate everything, even the air. We ended up cutting our losses after a few straight days of pouring rain and hiked out which was several miles all up hill. Right as we reached the trail head the sun came out. It was an experience for sure. There absolutely is a big psychological element at play. Each day our mood got worse as we sat in our little tent hoping things would improve. We had plenty of food and supplies, but we just couldn't do anything. I hope to again backpack sometime soon once my youngest gets a little bit older. Thank you Les for the inspiration to try new things and enjoy it even if it doesn't always go as planned.

I said les where you going, he said “I’m going home, how bout you” I told him I was going home as well and we wished each other well, what a legend I couldn’t believe it. I ran into professional surfer Rob Machado at the same airport also on a different trip years later, its a crazy life

36:45 - This is why this guy is and will always be respected by me. I also love that we always get to see Les's failures as well as his victories. You can learn a bit from failing (or should try at least). Spent the last year or so watching more sedate bushcraft/wildcamping type stuff, I am now about to binge on more survival/adventure orientated stuff - Les Stroud, Ray Mears and Bush Tucker Man (Les Hiddins) are all like old friends, I used to love watching these journies and observing the skills and knowledge put to the test, time to get comfortable again I think!

I Bike toured South America from Tierra del Fuego to Santiago, Chile. Outstanding scenery, viscous and unrelenting weather. When Les said several times “ if you don’t like the weather, wait five minutes” I got flashbacks of 60-70 mile/ hr head wind last several days a couple days break and smacked with more unrelenting headwinds. We were only able to ride our 60 lbs bikes at 2 miles/hr and walking our bikes at 3 mi/hr. It was faster to walk then actually ride. I remember staying at an estancia similar to yours where all night I thought it would blow down that very night. Looked like that Patagonia weather gave Les the same “warm” welcome. You’re a legend, Les. Long time fan, and watched your show admirably as I geared up for my Patagonia adventure. This trip is a true example of the True grit you genuinely hold. No food. Viscous weather. Maggot infested meat, WHCIH YOU ATE!!! Endless fishing without a single bite. Only your grit to get you by. Patagonia will always be a world untamed.

So I just saw this episode. I love the fact that as others have commented, Les doesn't pretend to be expert in all aspects of every skill needed to survive. I was puzzled though, as in other episodes, Les points out that "survival" changes a lot of rules. He said he couldn't get close enough to get a proper shot at a calf, his fishing was unsuccessful, but then two fox are near him, why not take one or both with the .22 rifle? "It doesn't seem right"... what? Les also says the cabin he found and was using ran out of firewood..., but as he walks around the area, there is an old corral behind him with a broken fence, why not have used wood from there, or explain why that wood wasn't viable?

" This looked like one of the most miserable experiences ever" Right up there at least. He was pretty miserable in one of his original jungle survival episodes, he was very miserable in his Nunavut (Baffin Island if I remember correctly) episode where he was constantly afraid of being attacked by a polar bear and his lost at sea in a liferaft episode seemed to break him as badly as this one did. His BC mountain survival episode left him also very above and beyond miserable with the nonstop cold BC rain (I can personally relate to that, I experience that same rain as part of everyday life). Go back to his OG TV episodes and you'll see he's been through a lot of miserable experiences. All to edutain us. He has to really love what he does and his audience to put himself through a week of hell like this about 6-8 times a year. I have nothing but respect for Les Stroud and what he does.

Pata-gonia = big feet. I wonder what kinds of cryptid(s) might exist in this part of the world. A place of legends.

[@scladoffle2472]

According to Google/Wikipedia, that's not what that means. In reference to the name patagonia, or patagon - "The Patagones or Patagonian giants were a race of giant humans rumoured to be living in Patagonia and described in early European accounts and indigenous myths. Pigafetta also recorded that Magellan had bestowed on these people the name "Patagão" (i.e. "Patagon", or Patagoni in Pigafetta's Italian plural), but he did not further elaborate on his reasons for doing so.[1] The original word would probably be in Ferdinand Magellan's native Portuguese (patagão) or the Spanish of his men (patagón)." "Named Portuguese patagão by Magellan or Spanish patagón by his men, traditionally said to be from pata (“foot”), referring to the shoes of the Tehuelche. However, the -gón suffix remains unexplained; the more likely origin is an invented name from Amadís de Gaula by Montalvo, similar to California." Nobody knows what the '-gon' suffix means.

Les I’m Proud of you! I was already a fan before I knew you were a horseman. Now that makes you that much cooler to me!

Man I've never seen an episode where he is beat. I really thaught he would start hunting regardless of the weather

[@hughmann3952]

As a hunter who has tried to go out regardless of weather, I can tell you this, it really sucks. High winds like that just sap the warmth right from you, not to mention playing hell with the accuracy of a piddly 22lr. Rain and snow are even worse, and tough weather makes game hunker down in cover, making it hard to find them. About the only benefit of wind is hiding scent and sound. Don't know how much you know about firearms, but the 22lr rifle he as, killing even a small cow with it would be an extremely difficult task under the best of conditions. Eye, behind the ear, or heart shot, anything else and that animal will take hours, or days to die.

It's true, I tried to put a deer out of it's misery from being hit by a car. Not my car not me, her legs were broke and she was in a ditch still moving. We called the cops and they didn't want to discharge thier weapon. Hit her in the head with a .22 lr and it bounced off her skull. I will never forget her pain and my lesson. We switched to a .45 and she was gone in seconds. A sad experience and a tasty deer. She didn't go to waste. Only regret is that small calibre. That was a day of lessons.
