It's so cool to have all of Les's work available now, really missed seeing this guy on TV, he was so authentic at a time right before this whole survival genre really took off and got ruined by phonies and people who eat energy bars off camera, like Bear. I support Les 110% and have a few pieces of merch, this man deserves every penny.

[@shapiroshekelberg604]

I know Bear Grilles was silly. If you're in a survival situation, the last thing you want to be doing is running and jumping 12 feet down below and swinging around on vines like a tarzan. you get injured and you die.

Rear Admiral Byrd, who spent 5 months alone in a shack in Antartica observed the folliwing: "The longer Byrd spent in isolation, the more he noticed the trappings of his old life fall away.

The thing that makes me distrust him is that he never videos himself taking a shit. He never ever takes a photo of his stool. If he did that I would believe he stays out in the environment. The fact he doesn’t do it proves he stays in a hotel and takes a shit in the hotel luxury bathroom which is part of his luxury suite. He can’t take a photo of a turd in lovely pristine porcelain when he claims he’s living in the wild for a week. Dude is a fraud.

I'll never forget seeing the igloo scene when it aired. I laughed and felt satisfied I could 1 thing Les couldn't. I'm sure he can do it proper now, but that's all I had on his skills.

[@jonathanturner4220]

I like Les because of the way he documents and narrates his episodes. Back in 2005. Season 1 was filmed in 480i so you have to take that into consideration in terms if the clarity of today's resolution. He filmed everything himself from what I understand and performs his actions and explanations in a realistic manner. I have his DVDs and could not think of another survivalist that presented himself as a real person going through these experiences. I'm glad that he is on youtube started watching his program back in 2005. Shows like this are rare these days.

[@xGSFxGoat]

Words cannot express how happy I get when I find an episode of Survivorman that I haven't seen yet. Thank you for making these, Les. If anyone deserves the Order of Canada for their contributions to Canadian culture, it's you.

[@Mote.]

The footage is impressive especially knowing that its all him recording while surviving.

[@DeputatKaktus]

Can we appreciate for a minute that the camera gear alone is probably at least of the weight he's lugging around? One of these Pelicase camera cases weighs in at around 7 kilograms and that's without anything in it! They are sturdy, which is good, but they weigh an absolute ton. And I saw at least two of them. And in these temperatures he would have needed an imperial buttload of batteries as well plus some way of keeping them somewhat warm. Cold batteries die like flies. Calling all that stuff a pain probably felt like the understatement of the century.

[@jonathanmartin726]

The camera gear alone is like 55 pounds. And he sets it up, crosses a sketchy river, then needs to come back across said sketchy river to get the camera and cross it again. He does it so seamlessly I always forget and remember again how much energy alone is put into filming, never mind surviving.

[@WhoBallCain]

I have no idea how he can do all that. It seems that most self filmed/solo shows and documentaries however are always the best perspective, most intimate, and most genuine. Thinking about the pain in the butt it must be to get all those shots and haul all the extra equipment distracts me from the show. I try to forget about it. Imagine the extra calories you would burn in a place where it is hard to get food. All that adds up, with laryngitis and polar bears to boot. I would be getting frustrated having to go back and forth getting cameras all the time, plus the weight of them and their case alone. Yeah, that would suck.

[@rajgill7576]

Les is amazingly humble and consistent in his endeavors. Cant believe how he sounds the same on day 6 versus day 1

[@alexhaid2983]

He also has a radio and a crew in a 50 mile range, so we should not appreciate it actually

[@DeputatKaktus]

@@alexhaid2983 Oh...Nice! Listen up, everybody! We have ourselves a real expert here. He is of course absolutely right...how dare Les have a safety line in case things go pear-shaped? And how foolish by people to care about his safety! All this OF COURSE makes the entire survival idea pointless because a radio and a crew 50 miles away will practically reduce the weight and bulk of the kit to zero....And they will also magically teleport him out if things go south. We should all listen to the wisdom brought to us by this great guy. He is certainly going places. /s Just go back to your cave. Or your mom's basement. Or wherever else you came from. Trolls will not be fed here.

[@laura-ann.0726]

When "Survivorman" first came out on TV (Discovery Channel?), "Arctic" was one of my favorite episodes. For most of us here in the Lower 48 (California for me), Anchorage, Alaska or the National Parks of southern Canada - Banff for example - is about as far north as we will ever get. As of 2017, it is now possible to drive to Tuktoyuktuk, but only a handful of the most intrepid adventurers will ever do this. In Alaska, in theory, it is possible to drive the winter ice road to Coldfoot, or even Prudhoe Bay on the Arctic Ocean if you have business there, but I am long past the time of my life where I might be able to take on a challenge like that. This episode of "Survivorman" took me to a place on this planet that I dreamed of as a child, reading stories like Kipling's "The White Seal" and Jack London's "Call Of The Wild", but I'll never see them for myself now. I find myself drawn to videos that people post, who have been able to visit CFS Alert, the northernmost permanently inhabited place in the world, only 800 km south of the North Pole, way out there on the northeast cape of Ellesmere Island. "Arctic" showed me the reality of my childhood dreams, that a place still existed where the earth has seldom felt the presence of Man, where ice and snow are pristine and not littered with fast-food containers and trash, and "the wild majestic mountains stand alone against the sun". Now if we can just save what's left of wilderness, and somehow not change the climate so radically that polar bears and all the other species that depend on at least a few months of real winter, are driven to extinction. Thanks for doing what you do, Mr. Stroud.

[@ricky5369]

I am extremely impressed with how little food you went with. It's weird because you know there's no way to survive without catching a seal, but bringing food makes it look like a campout. So you had to just lost 10lbs of fat (35000+ calorie deficit, 3500 calories per pound of fat) for the show. It's similar to the Kalahari Desert, there's no way to get water but you had to make yourself go without it for a bit just for the show.

[@Tyler-vw9bh]

It's also realistic as many people who get lost do have some water/snacks at the time depending on their activity. No one in their right mind would go to Kalahari without water - even for a day trip.

He would soldier on through so much misery in many of these shows while always keeping a cheerful attitude. I also like how honest he is about his mistakes. His show gave people a window into what the average person is capable of in a survival situation, unlike man vs wild.

[@SoundShinobiYuki]

42:27 really drives the point home of how INCREDIBLY hard it is to live in the polar regions. There's a very good reason that the Inuit are very communal and interdependent with each other and are raised to never brag or be self-centered- individualism will get you killed out there.
