When your wife came to greet you after winning at the end was the most wholesome moment on Alone I've ever seen. "YOU GOT A MOOSE!? YOU'RE WILD!" Makes me smile everytime
Your authenticity, clean language, humor, humility, attitude, positivity and tenacity are inspiring and super refreshing. HUGE congrats. Well deserved win! Looking forward to seeing what you do next! Your JRE was terrific!
Those things REALLY stood out and definitely sparked my interest bringing me to this talk. I couldn't believe that supersized Pike at the end. For someone who's a hardcore survivalist you're well spoken too with an unusual journey. Hope you might do something with Baer Grylls. PS, so good to hear you share about the Armenian bkgrnd and heritage. More people need to know about the Armenian holocaust.
Bro I have a great idea for you pitch a few broadcasters a show where you take a few city folk out and help them survive over a week maybe as a contest where they get pts for kills for food shelter etc it would really show how hard it is out there you should have your own show and make at least 500k a season like bear gryles your perfect for the role man
Jordon, I literally cried when your wife showed up, you're a beast and an inspiration. Love how you didnt complain and just kept a level head. Great job, wish you and your family the best, you're awesome!!
Hands down my favorite contestant ever. You are the embodiment of badass! Honestly, it would be so awesome if you had your own show where you’re put into different survival situations. The only win that brought me to tears. The reason? The connection you and your wife have. In all the seasons I’ve watched, you two are the only ones that have shown such a deep love. She was so happy and excited to see you. And you can tell that it was genuine. She was so excited that you killed a moose and wolverine. It just touched my heart to see her so supportive and to see you two so in love.
@@hobojordo Thanks for replying! I'm starstruck! Also, you two make super adorable kids! Looking back, I wish they had put you on Season 7 instead because you could've EASILY lasted 100 days (and more) out there. Also, you totally deserve the 1 million! I wonder if they'll ever have a season with all the winners only. That would be so damn cool.
I just finished binge watching Season 6. I kept saying if the dude that killed a moose and a Wolverine doesn’t win I’ll be shocked. Congrats man you’re a beast!
Jordan, thanks for adding your "christian testimony." giving credit to God in all things and also being grateful to Him daily has made my life easier. i just got access to tv and alone was the first thing i watched. thank you for sharing this part of your life with us. congratulations on the win.
Hey I’m late to the Party.. binged season 6 on Netflix last night ( first timer) At the end when he pulled that fish out when he was ice fishing if you will , gave me chills , watching that was like the environment, Mother Nature, whatever you want to call it verifying his win!! It was magical in that moment!! Congratulations Jordan!!!!!!✨
I really loved how humble you were (and still are) throughout the entire show! That is what moved me the most. You showed immense skill in so many areas, had a plethora of unique survival experiences and wisdom, had a huge cache of extra food, and yet still did not think you were winning or above others! Even at the very end, your genuine humility was conveyed when you were shocked to see your wife. So glad you won!
Jordan, you’re a legend! Really enjoyed watching you this season. I admired your humility, ingenuity, and sense of humor. Congrats on the W! Well deserved
Bruh, I’ve changed my life based on you participating on that show. Your personality, and mental headspace is incredible. You pushed through it and maintained the most chill attitude.
Brother Jordan I was so impressed by your humility, humor and bravery on Alone. You are a true man of God and have shown this world what a godly, Christian man looks like. God bless you and your family.
My kids and I just watched it and you were by far our favorite! My girls called you "Moose". We were so greatful to see a survivor with a good attitude, clean language, and deep skillset. Thank you!
"Let you light so shine before men, that they see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." -Jesus It was so refreshing and hilarious to see your survival skills, your relaxed temperament when enduring hardship after hardship, your humor, etc. My family and I cracked up at your rabbit vest fashion show, and your ability to shrug and laugh at yourself when things didn't go your way. I often wondered if you were a brother in Christ, and I was so happy to find out you were. We're not perfect, but God works out his goodness and grace in us. It was so refreshing to see the light and love of Jesus in you played out on a world stage. Thanks for representing Him well. 💕
Jordan I just watched Alone for the first time ever and my husband was certain you'd be the winner from the start! I wanted a lady to win but you earned it in the end with your creativity and skills, belated congrats!
Just finished watching season 6. I am so happy that you have won. You are sooo skilled and I was surprised again and again by your creativity when it came to solve problems. I hope, your life developed in a really great direction. Best regards :-)
Jordan, I would love to see you on the Joe Rogan podcast to talk about hunting, bushcraft/survival, the Ivenki and the Alone show some more. I'm certain he would be interested in hearing your story.
JRE episode with you made me stop the episode about an hour in and binge watch most of season 6 of Alone... Your knack for keeping a positive perspective and not taking failures for anything other than learning experiences, along with your problem solving intuition and experience set you above the rest on the show. I am an instant fan and wish you the best! I hope to see more survival experiences and demonstrations from you in the future, sir. Bravo!
I haven't met a single witness in my whole life who has made a larger impact on my faith than you. Jordan, your humble testimony through your actions has made me a believer. That means everything to me. Thank you.
Just finished watching season 6. Great job. I predicted - and my wife is my witness - that you would be the last man standing. Of all the contestants, you seemed to think outside the box more than your competitors. You were also the one that kept the "I miss my wife, family, etc." sentiments down to a minimum. You just tackled each challenge in a very pragmatic way. Well done! 👍🏼
@@shoutatthesky lol you can tell a large part of his mental stability and fortitude was due to his beliefs. Your criticism betrays your small mindedness.
My favorite winner by far!! You had my husband and I giggling each episode. After you caught a fish and went "selfie!" 😂 Such a positive attitude! You made it look EASY! CONGRATS!
After seeing you on Joe Rogan, I was an instant fan! Binge watched season 6 of Alone rooting for you the whole time, even though I knew you won ha. Hope to see more of your videos, hopefully so hunting videos. You’re awesome man, Congrats on the win!
You Need your own show man ; Entertaining and Impressive human being you are. Me and my family was rooting for you from the start of season 6. Cheers on the win man
I just finished season 6 literally 15 min ago and I just looked you up. You are By far my favorite so far, and am glad I was able to find your channel. I've learned a lot just from your videos on Alone. I hope you're able to get another chance on Alone again for the million dollar reward in the future. I will definitely strive to be more like you, thank you for inspiring me.
I hope you read this Jordan, you were the best person i have watched out of every season! My dad and I had an amazing time actually watching someone try and thrive and not just prolong starvation. Amazing job making a fishing pole! You really are a superhuman. Thank you for your effort and for not crying every night like some contestants. Amazing job man
You have a personality that's meant to blossom. Relatable and humble dude. I hope you gain a career after the outstanding performance you had on alone, and then also seeing a little bit more about you on a personal level on JRE. A network needs to pick you up or something. God bless!
It was great to watch your skills in action and your even-tempered perspective in Season 6. In each season of the show I usually have one or two favorite contestants, but sometimes I can't really pick a favorite. But, dude, when you killed that moose, I knew you were the one I'd be rooting for the rest of the season. That was bad-ass, and the wolverine take-down was the frosting on the survival cake. I'm glad you won.
Hey Jordan! Well done on your Alone success. I was absolutely engrossed by the series. As soon as I learned from you about your time with the Siberian nomads I realised you had a very strong chance of winning. Book knowledge only gets you so far. You had lived it. My grandfather was a 10 year old Polish refugee and was shipped to Siberia by the Russians. He learned to fish and hunt to support his mother and sister. He had many hardship stories. Eventually he was part of the Poles who’s fathers were released by Stalin from the Gulags and evacuated them to Uganda to wait out the war. He was the best man I have ever known. I think our souls need to be forged in the crucible of the wild. We need time like you say to think about our issues. I would be really interested to hear some of you thoughts you had when problem solving the cultural issues we had around the time you went on the show, 2020 has become a time of cultural insanity. Have you any plans to write any essays or even a book with the Alone experience as a backdrop? Your book would be so much more with everything you contemplated added as well as your experience. It certainly would not be your run of the mill survival guide. I wish you all the success and happiness for the future for you and your family. I really respect your attitude, clean language, belief and fortitude. A role model for modern men a link back to our ancestors. All the best!
Thank you friend! Man poland has been through it, what stories to have, and what a person to know! I have worked on and am thinking about a book this fall, and good point on the cultural issues that would be something interesting to hit on.. Thanks for the good words man!
Loved watching you on season 6 of Alone and was so impressed with everything you created! Was so happy for when you won and saw your wife after all that time. I would love to see you on a "Survivorman" type show or an All Star series of Alone!
Hi Jordan! Really enjoyed the show and just finished last episode today... Had to laugh on the moment you found out you had a selfie stick 😂 To be alone for such a long time, on your own.. in middle of nowere and arctic temps... Respect 💪👍
Hey Jordan Jonas, I hope you and your family are doing fabulous.♡🙏 After watching Alone's season 6, I became sincerely inspired by your way of living and your essence. I do believe you seriously thrived in the habitat! Question: what do you plan on doing with your money? You mentioned on instilling values into your children. How will you go about it? Also, a little sidetracked, but I had been struggling with depression, but after watching what you went through with such a positive and comedic attitude, I have been inspired to be more grateful in life and do as more than I have been. So thank you for showing us a better way 😊
Seen you Joe rogan, never heard of the show then, now I have seen them all. You where so level headed and calm during the whole experience, well done sir
Wow! It's really cool to see someone thrive at living off the land. It's a good feeling knowing you can survive on your own off the land. I'm proud to be from a culture of hunters, fishers & farmers. So happy to see this guy's journey.❤😊
It's so awesome to see how much research and things that you have leaned over the years helped you make it out there. Truth be told, once I saw how you handled some of your first mistakes/ shortfalls I knew you were going to win. Good for you man. Seriously, as much as that means from some random guy on the internet.
Just watched season 6 now. Looking at the videos you’ve done after the show (such as this one) it’s clear there is a difference between our impression of your situation (as viewers) versus your real situation at the end of the show and this is clearly down to the editing. You were in a much better situation than what we could perceive. But I guess for the producers it made sense to edit it that way to keep up viewer’s interest. Even with the editing it was clear you were the strongest contender, so if they had shown how far ahead and better off you really were, there would have been no dramatic tension at all for the end. Anyway thanks for these videos and belated congrats on your well deserved win 😀
How's it going brother? Congrats on winning. It's the first season I watched just finished it today and you my friend are one of the best human beings I've seen on this Earth. Such a great personality man, they should be offering you your own show. When you did the whole "I'm a model catwalk", that shit was hilarious my man, comedy Gold that whole strut😂😂😂but the realest part was when your wife surprised you was really great and very heartfelt kinda makes you appreciate all the things. I wish you the best on any future endeavors and good luck bro. Be easy ✌🏼
Congratulations Jordan! After watching the show, I’m certain all your fellow “Alone” cast mates realize they were only competing for 2nd place. You’re the only person in 6 seasons who were thriving and could probably make it there for at least a year. Everyone else were just slowly starving to death. Living with the Evenki was perfect training for “Alone” Another amazing fact about you is that you’re so grounded and have such a strong mind and willpower. I’m certain your faith had a lot to do with this.
Jordan, I found you on alone and immediately liked you. I rooted for you the whole time and was SOOOO happy when you won. hope you are doing good. you have encouraged me to get outdoors more again and I may even start a youtube channel about it. I'm super happy for you and can't wait for your next video! Thank you for inspiring me and countless others.
I got so emotional when you won! I think you’re the hardest working contestant ever. You totally deserve the win and future success! You’re an Inspiration 👍👍👍
Congrats Jordan!! I've never watched Alone before season 6 but I'm so glad I did. Your totally deserving of the win! I watched most of your interview on Joe Rogan and yout life story is incredible, you're an absolute Legend bro!!! Your family is absolutely beautiful! I would love to see more of Janahlee and the kids (I'm also Filipino/American) and your day to day lives since you have won.
I just binged season 6 on Netflix. You stole my attention every time. I had a feeling about you from the stay. Clean, authentic, and humble. A little late, but Congrats!
Loved your quirky funny attitude and I was rooting for you early on, glad you won, and thank you for giving us as viewers/dreamers a good look at what it could be like as far as a successful survival experience, I really enjoyed it when you told your wife that you had more in the tank, I love fishing great slave lake it’s beautiful and great fishing.
Just finished the season, and you were the best contestant I've seen on Alone so far. My boyfriend and I were really rooting for you. Like everyone else, I cried tears of joy when you won. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!!
I really appreciate how you spoke about your faith and world view. It is great to see someone living/embodying the values of their belief system. Earnest, Genuine, Love.
So much to thank you for, and hearing your back story is fascinating, enlightening, inspiring. As an historian by training, I can relate to your point about knowing about other times, people and struggles.
Just finished all of alone season 6, you as well as the other participants have excellent outdoor skills, as well as you having an amazing outlook an attitude on life. It was really cool to see a lot of the things I grew up learning while becoming an Eagle scout put to actual real life use. Making a net out of paracord was so legit. Many could learn from your skills! Great job!
My wife & I just finished your season and were cheering for you the whole way! Your attitude was so captivating and your reaction to seeing your wife had us in tears. Congrats man we’re happy for you & your family! Also saw you’re from Idaho, awesome! My wife & I went to school in Idaho- happy to see an Idaho kid won it!
you've been super inspiring man, i've fallen in love with backpacking. super happy to hear you had the comfort of the presence of God, that's what comforts me backpacking alone! wooo budday PG
Wow just started watching this show can't get enough Jordan you are bad ass impressive, I admire you, you are in another level, true survivalist, truly amazing. God bless you and family.
Great season. Really liked your JRE interview and this Q&A was awesome. Thanks for posting it. You sir are a renaissance man. Super skilled, really funny, pleasantly super deep. Thanks for sharing your experience and letting so many people into your world.
Don't know if anyone has said it yet but you've got a great eye for photography. Some of the footage you got was amazing. Congrats on the win. Really enjoyed watching you thrive.
You were the most impressive contestant my wife and I have seen on Alone. You have inspired me to get more involved in the great outdoors. Thank you for the entertainment and the lessons in survival.
You are such an inspiration! Living an eviable life, yet grounded and humble. It's so rare to see such a kind soul, especially on TV. I hope you and your family continue to find success.
Im doing my last year of school and i took classical studies and i dont even know why , i thought it was only a subject to become a teacher or whatever i wished i never took it. But after you said how it teaches you about life i found it even more valuable than english, its really insane how much you can learn by past humans/historians/conquerors/civilizations, and how it can influence your life and mindset in way you never knew otherwise.
My boyfriend and I love you so much. We hope to have the same mental fortitude like you showed when under pressure. Love that you are a christian too not by proclaiming it but it showed in your actions.
Like you, I have been in harm’s way and in great danger often, partly because of how I chose to recreate and earn a living. God was with me each time and watched over me. He tells you what to do even though you don’t know why at the time. Angels exist. I am humbled and in awe of that force. It sounds nuts but it isn’t. Hats are off to you for your authenticity and humility.
I have some questions if you get the chance to answer! Loved watching you on the show. 1. Do you think you would have eaten sustainably with the rest of your food if you didn't catch the moose? (looked like you had plenty of other meat anyway) 2. How much meat is on a wolverine? Like is it a good food source worth hunting? (despite the musky taste) 3. Are there any sources of sustainable carbohydrates out there which you looked for? 4. Didn't see too much on the shelters in the show - what did you take into account when you built yours? 5. How competitive are you? Thanks for making this video!!
www.jordanjonas.com/blog if you scroll down I have my shelter description/drawings etc... Question one is a good question...I was catching lots of fish once I figured the fishing out, so I may of been able to maintain, but it would of been much more difficult/iffy. I would of also kept trying for large game the whole time, because it would be quite hard to sustain without it, though I did have looots of other meat and would of had plenty of food to be full, I'm not sure if it would of been sustainable with fat ... Given just the amounts of other things I had I think I would of still made 80-90 days, but I would of used more of my body's reserves than I did. And if fat was low I would of tried to supplement more carbs, but those were only available in berries and reindeer licen both of which I collected alot of just to have some carbs everyday. The wolverine has a fair amount of meat, not alot of fat. So in my case it wasn't worth hunting for food, as I had tons of protein .. but in general it would be more worth going after larger animals, and aside from incredible fishing, that's probably your only chance at long term sustainability calorically..
You’re incredible dude! I really hope you write a book because I want to know more about your time in Siberia. Thank you for being so open in this questionnaire answering all of those questions!
I just finished season 6 and i m so happy you won.....you really deserved it!!!! Someone purposely put on weight thinking it would give them a leg up but it didn't..You went in as the thinnest which could have put you at a major disadvantage but your skillset shows people thats what is most important. You were the most consistent with your hunting,fishing,trapping,etc., and all your.survival skills. I saw someone else in the comments enjoyed watching you live & survive there for the same reasons as myself. It really was your authenticity, tenacity, humor,positive attitude, and survival skills that made you so deserving to win!! You killed.it out there👊
Haven't watched any TV shows in several years, I've been building my house in the forest, and then a well, and septic, and then a solar system, and several cabins on my forest property that I rent out on AIRBNB and Hipcamp..Just recently had the time to start to watch some stuff, that wasn't "HOW TO," to do something or the other..But glad I found "Alone" and your season..You should be very proud, and not just because of winning, but because of how you lived your life..There is no way to fake character, and being a good person, that you genuinely display..And you received the Karma you deserve..Good Luck brother..
@@hobojordo I would say a few things after watching this..First, I've been going on trips in northern Canada for decades, mostly portage/river fishing canoe trips with two other guys, we never took food with us, we did all have 870's, 12 gauges, for ducks ,geese, beaver and protection and we've been forced out of the bush many times from striking out and starving, and ate like kings on other trips..Experience is certainly required for attempting these expeditions, but is no guarantee of success...The float plane trips we always brought food, because there was no way out until your scheduled float plane day..Luck always plays a factor in the bush..2nd I have advanced degrees in biology and chemistry, worked for some interesting international organizations, but it didn't take long to become disgusted and understand how vulnerable our civilization really is..But then again, every human civilization to ever exist, has been a losing race, to discover remedies for the predicaments that they produce, bar none..Personally I think our world wide civilization will collapse in the next 2 decades, for a variety of reasons..The laws of nature, the laws of thermodynamics and the laws that govern complex systems are final and non negotiable. I've tried to be a Christian many times, I wish it could work for me..When I look at history, I see civilizations rise, their gods rise with them, when those civilizations die, like every civilization does, their gods die with them..I see gods as human constructs that serve very human needs..Of the millions of gods that have existed, that statement has to be a fact for all of them, except maybe one, but the odds that that's the case is pretty much zero..But, I do envy those who make it work, religion works miracles for human psychology, and can produce very good people..And it can be a difference among people that produces the very worst atrocities..I don't see us discovering remedies for nuclear war, mass extinction, or an environment that is changing hundreds of times faster than it's inhabitants can adapt..My guess would be that by weight, we have now killed 99% of the wild mammals, fish, birds, etc., that existed just a few thousand years ago..And when this civilization collapses, we will kill the rest..Beyond any doubt..For 400 hundred years, the biggest economic opportunity in North America was fur trading, and millions of people were involved..Now you will struggle to live off of nature almost everywhere..
Everyone - starving, contemplating tapping out.
Jordan - I think I'll make some birch cards for solitaire
it was at that moment that i knew he'd win.
Smartest thing I have ever seen on the show. Something to occupy the time.
Pitch your own show
Hmm I wrote a detailed mssg idea for your own show and it disappeared
I knew he was going to win when they said he lived in Siberia.
Siberia...
Let that sink in. Ha!
Jordan, you are the most skilled winner of any season of Alone. Bravo !
Thank you Martin!
@@hobojordo God bless, congrats on your journey. You are very inspiring. Excited to see where you go from here!
Hands down the best!
From one Jordan to another you're making Jordan's everywhere proud hahaha but really! Also your wife seems awesome! Loved seeing the reunion!
Yeah I wish he was on season seven, he would've easily gone 100 days and would've won double the money
When your wife came to greet you after winning at the end was the most wholesome moment on Alone I've ever seen.
"YOU GOT A MOOSE!? YOU'RE WILD!"
Makes me smile everytime
Your authenticity, clean language, humor, humility, attitude, positivity and tenacity are inspiring and super refreshing. HUGE congrats. Well deserved win! Looking forward to seeing what you do next! Your JRE was terrific!

Well said!!
YESSSSS to this. My whole family was rooting for him because he was the only one to not curse, he was always positive, and SUPER skilled.
Bro I have a great idea for you pitch a few broadcasters a show where you take a few city folk out and help them survive over a week maybe as a contest where they get pts for kills for food shelter etc it would really show how hard it is out there you should have your own show and make at least 500k a season like bear gryles your perfect for the role man
Besides excellent experience, sense of humor being centered spiritually seemed to work for you
Jordon, I literally cried when your wife showed up, you're a beast and an inspiration. Love how you didnt complain and just kept a level head. Great job, wish you and your family the best, you're awesome!!
Show ends.
Jordan: Can you bring my family? We'll just live here.
Hands down my favorite contestant ever. You are the embodiment of badass! Honestly, it would be so awesome if you had your own show where you’re put into different survival situations.
The only win that brought me to tears. The reason? The connection you and your wife have. In all the seasons I’ve watched, you two are the only ones that have shown such a deep love.

Alone needs to have a season for the champions and the prize be 1 million. Ppl would watch for sure!
Jordan, thanks for adding your "christian testimony." giving credit to God in all things and also being grateful to Him daily has made my life easier. i just got access to tv and alone was the first thing i watched. thank you for sharing this part of your life with us. congratulations on the win.
2023 and I still think Jordon is the most bad ass, down to earth, humble, intelligent dude to grace alone. Legend.
Appreciated man 🤝
I love how humble Jordan comes across never using the word alpha male all the time being an alpha male
Christian
Humble
Survivor
May God continue to bless you and your family. Thanks for all the amazing content!
Appreciate that, thanks!
Hey I’m late to the Party.. binged season 6 on Netflix last night ( first timer) At the end when he pulled that fish out when he was ice fishing if you will , gave me chills , watching that was like the environment, Mother Nature, whatever you want to call it verifying his win!!

Janie, I couldn't agree more. Seeing how calm, and positive he remained is incredible and I want to apply that in my life.! I hope he writes a book.💓🙏
Brother Jordan I was so impressed by your humility, humor and bravery on Alone. You are a true man of God and have shown this world what a godly, Christian man looks like. God bless you and your family.
Hey! Just finished watching you slay season 6. You were the contestant we had been waiting for. Way to rock it!
Thank you
Definitely,I'm going to rewatch!
You're probably the coolest participant of all six seasons, Jordan.

I tried writing him but haven't gotten through ;). Yeah I agree it would be a fun chat ))
You would think he’d be interested? Hopefully ya hear back Jordan.
Wow! that would be sick! if joe rogan inviteed Jordan

Christian? He's not is he? Oh well, no one is perfect.
@@shoutatthesky lol you can tell a large part of his mental stability and fortitude was due to his beliefs. Your criticism betrays your small mindedness.
@@mikeb4436 Christianity obviously brings great comfort to those that believe. That doesn't mean it is true.
My favorite winner by far!! You had my husband and I giggling each episode. After you caught a fish and went "selfie!" 😂 Such a positive attitude! You made it look EASY! CONGRATS!
Haha thanks glad you guys had fun watching
What a legend of a human. Jordan was my guy from Ep1; I’m grateful for the opportunity to learn from the man.
🤝
I was very entertained by your time in the show. I also found your voice so soothing.
After seeing you on Joe Rogan, I was an instant fan! Binge watched season 6 of Alone rooting for you the whole time, even though I knew you won ha. Hope to see more of your videos, hopefully so hunting videos. You’re awesome man, Congrats on the win!
Same
Here after binging season 6! I was super impressed by how you weren’t driven by ego and you were so genuine and humble throughout.
Thanks!
You Need your own show man ; Entertaining and Impressive human being you are. Me and my family was rooting for you from the start of season 6. Cheers on the win man
Thank you!!
I just finished season 6 literally 15 min ago and I just looked you up. You are By far my favorite so far, and am glad I was able to find your channel. I've learned a lot just from your videos on Alone. I hope you're able to get another chance on Alone again for the million dollar reward in the future. I will definitely strive to be more like you, thank you for inspiring me.
Jordan by far is my favorite winner. Great spirit, attitude and balls!! That wolverine kill...man! He set a great example!
Well done!
Your sense of humor and optimism up until the end was so inspiring! 🤍
Goodness. What a quality man. Makes me feel good just knowing Jordan’s out there
You prob don’t want it, but you’re a true role model. Thanks for your honesty and time.
I hope you read this Jordan, you were the best person i have watched out of every season! My dad and I had an amazing time actually watching someone try and thrive and not just prolong starvation. Amazing job making a fishing pole! You really are a superhuman. Thank you for your effort and for not crying every night like some contestants. Amazing job man
Thanks man!!! I could send that pole out halfway accross the lake 😆
@@hobojordo Your reply to me made my day! God bless you, sir.
If they did a “Previous winners” season would you compete again? It seems like a season of all winners could possibly go on for a crazy long time.
They should have a runners up season
They have a runner up season.

You have a personality that's meant to blossom. Relatable and humble dude. I hope you gain a career after the outstanding performance you had on alone, and then also seeing a little bit more about you on a personal level on JRE. A network needs to pick you up or something. God bless!
Jordan, thank you so much for sharing your journey, wisdom, and fresh beautiful spirit with us! You are an inspiration! :)
It was great to watch your skills in action and your even-tempered perspective in Season 6. In each season of the show I usually have one or two favorite contestants, but sometimes I can't really pick a favorite. But, dude, when you killed that moose, I knew you were the one I'd be rooting for the rest of the season. That was bad-ass, and the wolverine take-down was the frosting on the survival cake. I'm glad you won.
Thank you! Thanks for the note ))
@lana lake They were allowed to kill one. That's why he couldn't mess with the second one that came around. Just watch the episode, I'd say. =)
Hey Jordan! Well done on your Alone success. I was absolutely engrossed by the series. As soon as I learned from you about your time with the Siberian nomads I realised you had a very strong chance of winning. Book knowledge only gets you so far. You had lived it.
My grandfather was a 10 year old Polish refugee and was shipped to Siberia by the Russians. He learned to fish and hunt to support his mother and sister. He had many hardship stories. Eventually he was part of the Poles who’s fathers were released by Stalin from the Gulags and evacuated them to Uganda to wait out the war. He was the best man I have ever known. I think our souls need to be forged in the crucible of the wild. We need time like you say to think about our issues. I would be really interested to hear some of you thoughts you had when problem solving the cultural issues we had around the time you went on the show, 2020 has become a time of cultural insanity.
Have you any plans to write any essays or even a book with the Alone experience as a backdrop? Your book would be so much more with everything you contemplated added as well as your experience. It certainly would not be your run of the mill survival guide. I wish you all the success and happiness for the future for you and your family. I really respect your attitude, clean language, belief and fortitude. A role model for modern men a link back to our ancestors. All the best!
Thank you friend! Man poland has been through it, what stories to have, and what a person to know!
I have worked on and am thinking about a book this fall, and good point on the cultural issues that would be something interesting to hit on.. Thanks for the good words man!
Loved watching you on season 6 of Alone and was so impressed with everything you created! Was so happy for when you won and saw your wife after all that time. I would love to see you on a "Survivorman" type show or an All Star series of Alone!
Your wife was like rethinking: who is this man?? She couldn’t hide her admiration/ surprise. You are a beast. Congratulations!!
I hope your UA-cam channel blows up now after being on Joe’s podcast finally!!
Hi Jordan! Really enjoyed the show and just finished last episode today... Had to laugh on the moment you found out you had a selfie stick 😂 To be alone for such a long time, on your own.. in middle of nowere and arctic temps... Respect 💪👍
haha thanks man!
Hey Jordan Jonas, I hope you and your family are doing fabulous.♡🙏
After watching Alone's season 6, I became sincerely inspired by your way of living and your essence.
I do believe you seriously thrived in the habitat!
Question: what do you plan on doing with your money? You mentioned on instilling values into your children. How will you go about it?
Also, a little sidetracked, but I had been struggling with depression, but after watching what you went through with such a positive and comedic attitude, I have been inspired to be more grateful in life and do as more than I have been. So thank you for showing us a better way 😊
Seen you Joe rogan, never heard of the show then, now I have seen them all. You where so level headed and calm during the whole experience, well done sir
A lot of nice detail! Especially your faith motivating you . Thanks for more insight!
Wow! It's really cool to see someone thrive at living off the land. It's a good feeling knowing you can survive on your own off the land. I'm proud to be from a culture of hunters, fishers & farmers. So happy to see this guy's journey.❤😊
This man is from another time, I won’t believe anything else…
Your skill combined with your resolve and mental strength made you perfect for the show. So awesome to watch.
It's so awesome to see how much research and things that you have leaned over the years helped you make it out there. Truth be told, once I saw how you handled some of your first mistakes/ shortfalls I knew you were going to win. Good for you man. Seriously, as much as that means from some random guy on the internet.
thanks man! I appreciate you taking the time to write!
Just watched season 6 now. Looking at the videos you’ve done after the show (such as this one) it’s clear there is a difference between our impression of your situation (as viewers) versus your real situation at the end of the show and this is clearly down to the editing. You were in a much better situation than what we could perceive. But I guess for the producers it made sense to edit it that way to keep up viewer’s interest. Even with the editing it was clear you were the strongest contender, so if they had shown how far ahead and better off you really were, there would have been no dramatic tension at all for the end. Anyway thanks for these videos and belated congrats on your well deserved win 😀
🤝 thank you!
How's it going brother? Congrats on winning. It's the first season I watched just finished it today and you my friend are one of the best human beings I've seen on this Earth. Such a great personality man, they should be offering you your own show. When you did the whole "I'm a model catwalk", that shit was hilarious my man, comedy Gold that whole strut😂😂😂but the realest part was when your wife surprised you was really great and very heartfelt kinda makes you appreciate all the things. I wish you the best on any future endeavors and good luck bro. Be easy ✌🏼
Congratulations Jordan! After watching the show, I’m certain all your fellow “Alone” cast mates realize they were only competing for 2nd place.
You’re the only person in 6 seasons who were thriving and could probably make it there for at least a year. Everyone else were just slowly starving to death. Living with the Evenki was perfect training for “Alone”
Another amazing fact about you is that you’re so grounded and have such a strong mind and willpower. I’m certain your faith had a lot to do with this.
Thanks Buu!
Jordan, I found you on alone and immediately liked you. I rooted for you the whole time and was SOOOO happy when you won. hope you are doing good. you have encouraged me to get outdoors more again and I may even start a youtube channel about it. I'm super happy for you and can't wait for your next video! Thank you for inspiring me and countless others.
I got so emotional when you won! I think you’re the hardest working contestant ever. You totally deserve the win and future success! You’re an Inspiration 👍👍👍
Being from Buckingham, VA, I was rooting for you the whole time. So I'm glad you won. Congratulations and good luck with your future endeavors
Congrats Jordan!! I've never watched Alone before season 6 but I'm so glad I did. Your totally deserving of the win! I watched most of your interview on Joe Rogan and yout life story is incredible, you're an absolute Legend bro!!! Your family is absolutely beautiful! I would love to see more of Janahlee and the kids (I'm also Filipino/American) and your day to day lives since you have won.
I just binged season 6 on Netflix. You stole my attention every time. I had a feeling about you from the stay. Clean, authentic, and humble. A little late, but Congrats!
Really Amazed how much you managed to achieve with just a leather man! Really shows you its about the skills are so important.
Loved your quirky funny attitude and I was rooting for you early on, glad you won, and thank you for giving us as viewers/dreamers a good look at what it could be like as far as a successful survival experience, I really enjoyed it when you told your wife that you had more in the tank, I love fishing great slave lake it’s beautiful and great fishing.
Just finished the season, and you were the best contestant I've seen on Alone so far. My boyfriend and I were really rooting for you. Like everyone else, I cried tears of joy when you won. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!!

Best in what ways? Personality? Because the best skilled & durable contestant to now has been Roland on Season 7.
AWESOME... I always look forward to your posts, and UA-cam videos!
I really appreciate how you spoke about your faith and world view. It is great to see someone living/embodying the values of their belief system. Earnest, Genuine, Love.
So much to thank you for, and hearing your back story is fascinating, enlightening, inspiring. As an historian by training, I can relate to your point about knowing about other times, people and struggles.
That's awesome, I love history
You inspire me to create a more sustainable way of life for my family. Congratulations!!
Listening to this video is bound to make anyone a better person. Thanks Jordan!
Just finished all of alone season 6, you as well as the other participants have excellent outdoor skills, as well as you having an amazing outlook an attitude on life. It was really cool to see a lot of the things I grew up learning while becoming an Eagle scout put to actual real life use. Making a net out of paracord was so legit. Many could learn from your skills! Great job!
My wife & I just finished your season and were cheering for you the whole way! Your attitude was so captivating and your reaction to seeing your wife had us in tears. Congrats man we’re happy for you & your family!
Also saw you’re from Idaho, awesome! My wife & I went to school in Idaho- happy to see an Idaho kid won it!
Thanks for doing this again!!!
Watched Rogan, then watched your season of Alone... Thats a great show.. You sir are great at what you do!... Good job! Congrats.
you've been super inspiring man, i've fallen in love with backpacking. super happy to hear you had the comfort of the presence of God, that's what comforts me backpacking alone! wooo budday PG
Wow just started watching this show can't get enough Jordan you are bad ass impressive, I admire you, you are in another level, true survivalist, truly amazing. God bless you and family.
U were savage and i enjoyed it . ❤
Stay humble. You're an amazing human being. Congrats on your success. We live through you vicariously, Jordan!!
Great season. Really liked your JRE interview and this Q&A was awesome. Thanks for posting it. You sir are a renaissance man. Super skilled, really funny, pleasantly super deep. Thanks for sharing your experience and letting so many people into your world.
Great Q and A, some I’ve never heard. Awesome Testimony for Christianity at the end!
Don't know if anyone has said it yet but you've got a great eye for photography. Some of the footage you got was amazing. Congrats on the win. Really enjoyed watching you thrive.
Thank you!! No I haven't been told that much , but I appreciate it 😆
Just watched you win on Netflix. You were never going to lose, the Wolverines didn't want it, but they couldn't stop you. Congrats man.
You were the most impressive contestant my wife and I have seen on Alone. You have inspired me to get more involved in the great outdoors. Thank you for the entertainment and the lessons in survival.
I’m guessing you haven’t seen season 7 yet then.
Your last few minutes of honesty is very inspirational Jordan! Many Thanks and God Bless, Mark (from South Africa)
You are such an inspiration! Living an eviable life, yet grounded and humble. It's so rare to see such a kind soul, especially on TV. I hope you and your family continue to find success.
Jordan, my 11yr old is all about being a survivalist like you now! He's a Boy Scout and is looking at the merits he can earn in Nature. Way to go!
My son was inspired as well!
Im doing my last year of school and i took classical studies and i dont even know why , i thought it was only a subject to become a teacher or whatever i wished i never took it. But after you said how it teaches you about life i found it even more valuable than english, its really insane how much you can learn by past humans/historians/conquerors/civilizations, and how it can influence your life and mindset in way you never knew otherwise.
My boyfriend and I love you so much. We hope to have the same mental fortitude like you showed when under pressure. Love that you are a christian too not by proclaiming it but it showed in your actions.
Well thanks that's super nice to hear! Tell him hey! 🤝
Like you, I have been in harm’s way and in great danger often, partly because of how I chose to recreate and earn a living. God was with me each time and watched over me. He tells you what to do even though you don’t know why at the time. Angels exist. I am humbled and in awe of that force. It sounds nuts but it isn’t. Hats are off to you for your authenticity and humility.
First saw you on JRE, then watched season 6 of Alone on Netflix. You're a very inspirational Dude.
I have some questions if you get the chance to answer! Loved watching you on the show.
1. Do you think you would have eaten sustainably with the rest of your food if you didn't catch the moose? (looked like you had plenty of other meat anyway)
2. How much meat is on a wolverine? Like is it a good food source worth hunting? (despite the musky taste)
3. Are there any sources of sustainable carbohydrates out there which you looked for?
4. Didn't see too much on the shelters in the show - what did you take into account when you built yours?
5. How competitive are you?
Thanks for making this video!!
www.jordanjonas.com/blog if you scroll down I have my shelter description/drawings etc...
Question one is a good question...I was catching lots of fish once I figured the fishing out, so I may of been able to maintain, but it would of been much more difficult/iffy. I would of also kept trying for large game the whole time, because it would be quite hard to sustain without it, though I did have looots of other meat and would of had plenty of food to be full, I'm not sure if it would of been sustainable with fat ... Given just the amounts of other things I had I think I would of still made 80-90 days, but I would of used more of my body's reserves than I did. And if fat was low I would of tried to supplement more carbs, but those were only available in berries and reindeer licen both of which I collected alot of just to have some carbs everyday.
The wolverine has a fair amount of meat, not alot of fat. So in my case it wasn't worth hunting for food, as I had tons of protein .. but in general it would be more worth going after larger animals, and aside from incredible fishing, that's probably your only chance at long term sustainability calorically..
You’re incredible dude! I really hope you write a book because I want to know more about your time in Siberia. Thank you for being so open in this questionnaire answering all of those questions!
Your welcome, thank you!
Thanks for your words on your faith, God is good
I just finished season 6 and i m so happy you won.....you really deserved it!!!! Someone purposely put on weight thinking it would give them a leg up but it didn't..You went in as the thinnest which could have put you at a major disadvantage but your skillset shows people thats what is most important. You were the most consistent with your hunting,fishing,trapping,etc., and all your.survival skills. I saw someone else in the comments enjoyed watching you live & survive there for the same reasons as myself. It really was your authenticity, tenacity, humor,positive attitude, and survival skills that made you so deserving to win!! You killed.it out there👊
Thanks shellie 🤝
Thank you so much for sharing! You did amazing wow! Congratulations ro you and your sweet family..God bless!
Thank you!
Haven't watched any TV shows in several years, I've been building my house in the forest, and then a well, and septic, and then a solar system, and several cabins on my forest property that I rent out on AIRBNB and Hipcamp..Just recently had the time to start to watch some stuff, that wasn't "HOW TO," to do something or the other..But glad I found "Alone" and your season..You should be very proud, and not just because of winning, but because of how you lived your life..There is no way to fake character, and being a good person, that you genuinely display..And you received the Karma you deserve..Good Luck brother..
Thanks for the good words! 🤝. And sounds like you’re getting some great stuff done - nice job!
@@hobojordo I would say a few things after watching this..First, I've been going on trips in northern Canada for decades, mostly portage/river fishing canoe trips with two other guys, we never took food with us, we did all have 870's, 12 gauges, for ducks ,geese, beaver and protection and we've been forced out of the bush many times from striking out and starving, and ate like kings on other trips..Experience is certainly required for attempting these expeditions, but is no guarantee of success...The float plane trips we always brought food, because there was no way out until your scheduled float plane day..Luck always plays a factor in the bush..2nd I have advanced degrees in biology and chemistry, worked for some interesting international organizations, but it didn't take long to become disgusted and understand how vulnerable our civilization really is..But then again, every human civilization to ever exist, has been a losing race, to discover remedies for the predicaments that they produce, bar none..Personally I think our world wide civilization will collapse in the next 2 decades, for a variety of reasons..The laws of nature, the laws of thermodynamics and the laws that govern complex systems are final and non negotiable. I've tried to be a Christian many times, I wish it could work for me..When I look at history, I see civilizations rise, their gods rise with them, when those civilizations die, like every civilization does, their gods die with them..I see gods as human constructs that serve very human needs..Of the millions of gods that have existed, that statement has to be a fact for all of them, except maybe one, but the odds that that's the case is pretty much zero..But, I do envy those who make it work, religion works miracles for human psychology, and can produce very good people..And it can be a difference among people that produces the very worst atrocities..I don't see us discovering remedies for nuclear war, mass extinction, or an environment that is changing hundreds of times faster than it's inhabitants can adapt..My guess would be that by weight, we have now killed 99% of the wild mammals, fish, birds, etc., that existed just a few thousand years ago..And when this civilization collapses, we will kill the rest..Beyond any doubt..For 400 hundred years, the biggest economic opportunity in North America was fur trading, and millions of people were involved..Now you will struggle to live off of nature almost everywhere..
