I once camped on an island off Cape Flattery and all night long there were eerie crying noises that sounded like human babies sobbing and wailing for their mums. Quite loud and close too. The hairs on my neck stayed up all night, not knowing what it was. Really disturbing. Found out that it was the sound that baby mutton birds make, which are left on the island, while the parents are out fishing for a few days. Maybe this was the same thing the soldiers heard? Only happens at certain times in the year.
This was a really great solo episode, a lot of tension, great editing, all those hermit crabs in your bag in the morning was mental, the way you nailed that fish with the spear first shot was incredible, and the whole 24 hour adventure was wild. You're the deserted island king! Yeeewwww! 🙏🏻
I’ll tell you base on my own experience when I was in Afghanistan, my squad were to relieve the British soldiers from an OP, Observation Post, in the middle of nowhere. As an American soldiers were worked with the British quite a bit. When we arrived at the OP, all the British soldiers looked like they had went through some of worst fighting all night. They couldn’t wait to leave. They all told us to not stay on the hills but to stay opposite of the OP and just got on their vehicle and drove as fast as they could like something or someone is after them. To make the long story short, that night we sat in this mud compound and we started hearing human figures walking up the hills and we all heard there sounds behind the mud houses. There were 10 soldiers with M-4 rifles and some grenade launchers. I decided to take one of my buddies and to scope out the surrounding areas. Within ten minutes we heard the shooting intensified at the OP, we ran back to the OP, three of men said they saw enemy fighters were walking in the hills toward them and they also heard a Russian language was spoken, they said they tried to radio me and my buddy but we didn’t respond. We told them that we didn’t receive any calls. Me personally don’t believe in supernatural or superstitions stuff. But that night all of us saw something that we’re not humans. Something that made a believer out of us,myself included. I’ve served 12 years in the US Army and I’ve been to some of the most terrifying places around the globe but that area, was the only place that I will remember for the rest of my life that there are things or ghosts or whatever people called are among us. They are dangerous and evil as well.
At the end of this video clip you are flying along the sea bottom, lucky you chose to go back to shore. I so much enjoy watching all the under water scenes, so full of life flying every where.
Really enjoyed it! Uninhabited locale, great drift snorkling and the sights. Really enjoyed seeing the large blue clam. Would've been nice to see the big ones (fish) that got away! And.... the drone footage is always awesome (I've got to get one of those). When I was much younger, I'd do this same thing going solo and exploring areas (even if no one else wanted to go), just not like the waters you have available there. Yep, I'd be on or in the water everyday if I could. Very grounding and theraputic, mentally and physically. Well done!
Nice video of this historical island which looks like nature is in the process of reclaiming. I say this because of the fact that the guns shown are now sitting in water which I don’t think they were when first brought in. The beauty of the coral reef is really fascinating also to see the beautiful live coral striving with lots of different sea life! Amazing! One could only dream of the days when before Money and tourism and corruption took over our once beautiful island of paradise it was this beautiful to.😢 Thank you for showing us that there are still islands out there and islanders that want to keep their island pristine. ❤️🙏
Just love your videos Thank you! Just love exploring these Awesome Islands with you all! never knew how much you could survive on what nature has in store if you were ever stranded. You certainly know your stuff!! much appreciated Karen from Canada!!!!!🥰🐟🐌🐠👏💯🐾🌴🌿🥥🏝🚤 thanks again!!!!
Man! I'm sooo tired of winter here and seeing you in a warm climate makes me ready for spring. This past week here in southern United States our temps have been 7 degrees Fahrenheit or -13 Celsius with wind chills down to -17 F or -27 C.
strick , you just gave me a great idea , ( how about someone invents a swivel for a trailer that when you go to launch the boat you can swival the boat so that the front end the higher end of the boat hits the water first therefore not swamping the boat ) , just a thought , there has to be people out there much smarter than me that could do such a thing , its the little things that matters ......
Looks like it needed a good douching anyways! Some boats have a little plug in the bottom or the back of the boat to let the water out if you're moving!
What an amazing Island!! Could’ve been great if you show us where on the map location wise in all the islands you go to😊🤙 Just saying ✌🏼great vlogs!! Keep on keeping on!! CHEERS!! 🍺🍺🍺
LOVE ALL YOUR PROGRAMS, YOUR AN EXCELLENT, NARRATOR, OF YOUR INFORMATION, SURVIVAL TIPS, REAL, TIME EVENTS, ON WILD HUNTING, JUST LOVE IT ALL, WISH I WAS THERE, GOD BLESS YOU ALL PLEASE CONTINUE, BE YOU, THANKS TO ALL, FOR BRINGING THIS PROGRAM TO ALL OUT SIDE YOUR LIFE. I AM SURE A LOT OF PEOPLE AROUND, ARE ONLY ONE WORLD, WE ALL, SHARE WE ALL REALLY NEED TO RESPECTING OUR ONLY HOME FOR OUR LIFE.
I really like these stripped down episodes where you feature nature The hermit crab population was amazing but you wouldn't use that as click bait. "Hermit Crabs Everywhere". You and Fran make what you are doing educational, inspiring and visually entertaining. Good job.
I lost about 30 lures when I was on West Island in September . Massive strikes off the edge of the reef down near Trannies Beach and they just dove down and broke me off - 150lb leader! Saw Jack on the flight in and out.
Great episode! I've heard about ciguatera poisoning from eating certain reef fish, what do you do to avoid it? we have begun our own adventures in Brazil and Uruguay and have a few deserted islands we can go to ourselves, of particular interest to us at least and some of our viewers are the historic buildings we find which time has forgotten. We plan to visit San Gabriel Island in an attempt to search for remnants of Magellan's landing in 1519! Join us whenever you want, cheers!
Ciguatera poisoning is to my knowledge not possible to detect. If you are in an area where that is very common, it’s best to divide fish fillets from each amongst several people, in case you catch one that has it and you eat it all, which isn’t good. That’s what we have done just as a precaution so if you happen to catch one with the disease, at least you don’t ingest all of it. Also don’t catch the biggest reef fish, but younger still legal sizes. I read somewhere that a company was developing “at home test strips” to detect Ciguatera but I haven5 followed up on how that went. Would be great if it works for sure as Ciguatera is nasty and can stay with the victim for life in severe cases.
Jack, the guns abandoned in the surf, they're basically triple AAA weapons (Anti Aircraft Artillery) question: Is there any salt water crocs on that Island?.....such and amazingly beautiful place....Mahalo's for sharing bro!
I've just launched a new Survival Challenge Series re-visiting some epic stories, hope you enjoy! ua-cam.com/video/HAnX2XLI8g4/v-deo.html

Those where frogs
may be aliens ?😮
Maybe it's a whale and dolphins
Could be baby goats. I was out hunting and we thought we heard a baby crying. We found the goat had to put him to sleep had its back legs broken 2:58
All the deer spontaneously deciding to commit suicide by swimming away from the island is still pretty eery
I'm guessing Fran said "nope " to your haunted island adventure? :) I don't blame her! :)
This was a really great solo episode, a lot of tension, great editing, all those hermit crabs in your bag in the morning was mental, the way you nailed that fish with the spear first shot was incredible, and the whole 24 hour adventure was wild. You're the deserted island king! Yeeewwww! 🙏🏻
Glad you enjoyed this one Mike! Appreciate your support mate.
- Strick
I don't get scared easily but this video gave me the chills . Jack you are one crazy dude 👻
Those crabs were attracted to the oil scent on the soft plastics package
Love ya brother Jack, and beautiful Fran too! Always an immense pleasure watching mate! I'm a huge fan of WWII history!! God bless y'all!! 🙏❤
awesome footage seeing a moray eel out ofthe water cathcing crabs never seen this well done

I smoked a lot of weed in Afghanistan too bro.
Among us lol
A watcher of Mrballen I see...
Are you talking about OP rock?
Cool story bro 😂😂

Nice episode. Lot of interesting details. Loved Morey Eel going out of water for crabs. Lake in the middle of island - felt spooky crocodile zone.

"Some crabs", bro there were a 100 in your bag 😂
Definitely a reefer kind of night . Great video Jack. Tons of wild life
Reefer madness
indeed
Maybe the deer got sick of the crabs trying to eat them 😂 definitely a mystery
i will enjoy watching this on my pc seat leaning back !!! lets go!!
Waiting for you from sri lanka 🇱🇰
Come and enjoy yourself man 🍻✌️
Merry Christmas Strick, that is an interesting island, there seems to be lots of food around, excellent video, to bad you could not have stayed longer

Cool adventure! Don’t know if you can eat hermit crabs but you definitely caught enough in your bag to have a feast 😂
Man! I'm sooo tired of winter here and seeing you in a warm climate makes me ready for spring.
This past week here in southern United States our temps have been 7 degrees Fahrenheit or -13 Celsius with wind chills down to -17 F or -27 C.
Fantastic episode Strik. Not sure I would be able to brave a night alone wirh the history of those ghost stories .

Can’t get enough of these studies doing survival,
This was a really great solo episode.
You are amazing!! So cool what you do. Love the language you use as well which is unique for me from Canada!
That was a fun ride. Beauty. Thanks
Still here from Great Adventure 1. Loving the journey!
Looks like it needed a good douching anyways! Some boats have a little plug in the bottom or the back of the boat to let the water out if you're moving!
Looks like a cool adventure, Did you notice the cut stump at the lake you walked past 29:36
We enjoyed this very much, thank you.
That Drone seems to have the perfect lure for the birds mate
Great to get a double dose of your fun and adventures.
We got two Ecoflow River 2s for Christmas for home emergencies, but mainly to take camping. I prefer the Lithium-Ion batteries of the River 2..
I love watching your posts. I came across you by accident I am so glad I did. You are so much fun and interesting to watch
awesome videos! just discovered your channel. what brand of sunglasses are you wearing? keep up the good work.
Mako Explorers. Cheers mate, glad you enjoyed it
@@BacktoBasics Thank you for taking the time to respond to my comment. I was not expecting such a rapid response! Cheers from Alabama, USA!!
Not so much a machine gun, but more likely a 4-inch naval gun. Good episode, thanks.

Horsburgh Island, part of the Cocos/Keeling Islands
Sounds like the dear had chronic wasting disease, great video again Strick!!
You've already had to swim after one boat. That almost didn't end well. Glad this one stayed where it belonged.
Those “Cast Away” sounds will get you every time😂
I like your content bit different to other as and great insite on some historical stuff. Cheers
Daily Reminder to get in the word of God❤️

I like the back to basics dry bag ! Nice
The giant clam was the best!
this is by far the best vidio🤩
really beautiful view of the sea, there are various kinds of fish
Great videos Bloke 👍
Thanks
Wow wonderfull views❤
You Only Spent 1 Day There 😂
Is it Really Surviving Or just Camping ⛺️on a Beach 🏝️
In the US deer get a disease from certain fly and sand fleas causing them to overheat and drown themselves in the surf.
- You must not be too hungry you're letting all of the fish go.
Never found morels either mate although the beautiful chants are starting to pin here in Buckinghamshire.
That flip flop you put on is exactly like one that blew off the deck of my water bungalow in the Maldives... could it be?
Fantastic videos! Fantastic!
Jack, the guns abandoned in the surf, they're basically triple AAA weapons (Anti Aircraft Artillery) question: Is there any salt water crocs on that Island?.....such and amazingly beautiful place....Mahalo's for sharing bro!
We would get boat going 15 mph and pull drain plug. All water would go out on it's own.
indeed
These bungs screw in from the outside unfortunately. I normally do that aswell, but not worth the risk trying to screw back up from the outside 👍
Another great video
Salam kenal buat semua
@@BacktoBasics Nice video brother ^^ ❤️🇱🇰
Sorry what did you say about Sri lanka? I didn't get that :)
Hermit crabs are the best bait for saltwater fishing.
The noises were likely Curlews - they make a hell of a scary noise at night. AND that island needs to be cleaned up urgently.
