Go Play In The Woods | Sam Larson | TEDxLincoln

[@l.m.justme]

I'm glad to have found this update. I missed a lot of tv from 2012 to 2019 so I'm glad that I found this show on on demand. He did a great job!

[@micaKTM1290]

Sam was a great contestant, so glad he won the 2nd go round.

[@3paynes]

Sam is my favorite! Excellent Ted Talk Sam!!!

[@MICHAEL_MAY_8]

I just binge watched Season 1 of Alone. My first impression was this dude (Sam) was goofy and wouldn't last long. I was right about the goofiness. But clearly, I was wrong about everything else. He seems like a really good guy. I'm glad to hear he came back and won some cash. Human beings DON'T belong in cubicles.

[@jordythebassist]

I saw his goofiness but immediately recognised his comfort and mental strength. I was disappointed that he lost season 1 but sooo happy to see him win season 5. He deserved it.

[@vensheaalara]

He is goofy. But having a sense of humor is key to survival, very visible to both Sam and Alan.

[@maroelsanpedro6299]

It was the opposite for me. I was almost instantly sure he'd be one of the last guys to remain. Glad he came back and won in season 5.

[@debrahanks1964]

He was funny..that's what drew me to him from day 1. I was shocked to see him even on the show. I thought sam sure had me fooled. My heart just was full of happiness when he won..well deserved young man!

[@tiffanydutton6145]

Love the follow up...always loved his story and wondered what happened with his family and of course Sam

[@perschlmarkus]

Wow, all the best to you and your family, Sam ♥

[@FowlersMakeryandMischief]

cool man !!!

[@partyof53.08]

Yea same

[@suesiemccain9234]

Hey Sam! I loved your speech and I hope people listen! I grew up going camping with my family and had a Dad that took the time to help us love and understand nature. It’s one of things I’m the most thankful for. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and wisdom with some many! Good Luck! ((Hugs))

[@AbbaZabbaOlyFrn]

Looking good Sam! You look like you haven't missed a meal since winning in Mongolia. Great job man

[@frankiegiltner6163]

You're from Nebraska. THE heartland! Of course you'd be first or second each time. Salt of the earth people.

[@markalton7762]

I think someone must have been cutting onions in my living room when I saw you win season 4. Congratulations to you and your family. Everyone says that they would do anything for their family and children but you actually proved it.

[@darkgaminger7503]

he won season 5 you stuped little shietz

[@debrahanks1964]

I cried I was so overwhelmed with love and respect for Sam..congratulations Sam

[@ClaytonBigsby01]

I'm Not a crier at ALL but I tear up nearly every season when the wife walks up behind them

[@lisamcilvain4992]

Great talk Sam! Rooted for you season one and was so happy you came back and conquered!

[@connorwilson1157]

Wow this should have more views! I've liked Sam since he said "I feel like a mosquito in a nudist colony....so much work to do". That had me rolling

[@phylliscarr7943]

Sam I am so glad u came back. What a great attitude you have. God blessed u during your journey because of your gratitude. I love this presentation, too. How old is your baby now??

[@RomeoEdward]

You are an amazing speaker Sam. How you've grown since I first watched you on Alone. I wish you continued success in everything you choose to pursue.

[@cottoncandy4486]

I also bing watched the first season. I found this guy to be the happiest and funny. And one of the youngest. Bravo. So glad you won another one. You so desrve to.

[@briancostello5430]

Great speech -- loved Sam on Season 1 (haven't seen the Asia one yet) and he's really grown as a man and a teacher. What a great message that every person should hear and heed!

[@aldorfc7287]

Just watch you on season 1 so unlucky but the you your badass self came back season 5 and won it, deserved it bro and well done to your wife on another child, Bravo send love happiness to you and your family from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙👏

[@yvetterobinson9516]

I love Sam.

[@lindaferencik6791]

Just bought the season on Amazon. Loved Sam and Britt wanted them both to win. So happy for Sam and his young family.

[@laurajobusch5215]

It’s on History channel too.

[@ClaytonBigsby01]

Britt is a baby

[@alexandrawebster5707]

Glad to hear he won in another Alone season. I only watched Season 1, his nice attitude carried him a long way.

[@aldorfc7287]

Right strong positive young man

[@amyvanhuisen1967]

Totally enjoyed this, Sam!

[@Johnny53kgb-nsa]

Sam was a favorite of mine on Alone, it in is my top ranked show. I cheered for Sam, and I also really liked Fowler, and Roland that won last year, man he was a savage. But there were many very knowledgeable contestants, men and women. There were two really tough ladies on last year competing against Roland. Unfortunately, they just ran up against a machine. Roland killed a huge musk ox, and a porcupine. It's good to see Sam, glad your doing well, hope your family is fine.

[@simplysailingbarnabas4943]

You’re an inspiration to the ‘average’ person. Thanks for your humble example.

[@Mark-cb5ks]

Great talk and inspirational! Makes me want to get outdoors more!

[@abetalakai7223]

Just watched season one as well. I thought you would last a day or tow. I think you being young helped you bc you didn't have enough life experience to play mind games with you. Much props and love. You're a trooper

[@debrahanks1964]

Me too. Alan and Sam were my favorite

[@kbgirel6965]

I knew this guy would do it I was really impressed how he continued even though he lacked the skills to find food

[@bethstark9307]

Loved it. Good job, Sam!

[@ryanchristenson6127]

This was fabulous to listen to Sam-

[@SunRider69]

Great message

[@johnrollins4879]

Well done Sam!

[@returntoyehovahthelord6185]

Sam, Good job. This was entertaining to listen to (even though I'd watch both seasons of Alone in which you competed), but also sounded like you were very polished. Good for you!

[@agod5608]

Please send me a link to theSam Larson website

[@KamalaKackles]

Glad to see you’re doing well. Keep it up and remember that the most important thing you’ll ever do is be a father and husband......

[@islamwiki4890]

good job sam.

[@elmocotton3078]

Watching that show I was thinking the longer you hang in the more cred yull get for the lecture, book, sponsorship industry. So finishing #3 can still net you a ton of money, if you leverage it right

[@hexslayer363]

Oh dear he gained the weight right back, no offense Sam haha 😂 eating good in the neighborhood.

[@debrahanks1964]

I see he gained a lot of weight back..lol slow down sam..lol lifes much easier now for you .enjoy it and your precious family

[@Anthonylimere]

eyyy

[@weedeater64]

And if you see an authority figure out there telling you to keep your hands off? Fish bait is good.

[@YoItsDulce]

Well thanks for that spoiler lol I just finished season 1.

[@tanenicholas4492]

He cheated he had help the person helping got a huge cut

[@donaldjones4941]

The uninterested committee synthetically shiver because sweatshirt quantitatively wander like a wet morning. wiry, spotted jeff

[@z66m]

He looks like Ian from Alvin and the Chipmunks

[@olabashanda]

who voted this down, the leeches he ate?!😂

[@aldorfc7287]

That be the dude that tapped out after 12 hours on season 1 😂😂

[@jeff8509]

Didn't keep that weight off... lol

[@DatBoi06]

Sam loves to eat, don’t hate

[@aldorfc7287]

@@DatBoi06 eat food have a few pounds big deal haters hate anything m8

[@elizabethpetahtegoose4566]

@@aldorfc7287Sam is awesome whatever his weight 👍

[@NGKiernan]

All we saw on video was Sam catching a Sparrow, yet magically he survived 60 days?

[@debrahanks1964]

Then you need to rewatch it. Sam had the mindset to win and he I thought was taking it all in day by day..what a good guy..

[@NGKiernan]

@@debrahanks1964 Not a single recording of Sam catching anything but a single sparrow. No human can survive over Sixty days on a 36 calorie tiny bird and water . It Is Not Possible. Someone was supplying him food.

[@toddolatheks.1328]

I’m gonna try to take the high road. I guess haters are just gonna hate and it’s sad to me.

[@elanacar]

He's lovely. I really hope he's not a MAGA dude.

[@peytonmoran5406]

He’s not. Sam is actually a very intelligent Libertarian. Not the “Don’t tread on me” flag guy libertarians either. Like a real, true, and knowledgeable libertarian. He hates Trumpism and all that it’s about.

[@mrpay4444AYypIgEDLbwfZm4kjaQk]

I don't have much interest in the wilderness, I just find it boring. The wilderness can be explained through science and it isn't that exciting as some make it out to be.

[@mavery81230]

Do tell, could you explain "the wilderness"?

[@SamuelLarsonAdventures]

Maybe we should hang out then :)

[@Doctora6667]

I love to take you out ...into the Wilderness♡

[@ericthered976]

Yeah, definitely not as exciting as watching people mouth words to songs on Tik Tok. lol

[@aldorfc7287]

Man your lame lol science geek
