    About my BetterHelp sponsorship - I want to share that I do look into each sponsor I accept. I don't take sponsorships lightly and have turned down way more than I've accepted because I don't endorse the product or it's not a good fit with the channel. I looked into BetterHelp before I accepted the sponsorship and learned that they have addressed and corrected the issues that people were concerned with.
    The channel Cinema Therapy stopped promoting BetterHelp when the issues arose in 2023, but now have resumed their sponsorship after working closely with the company. They have explained in detail, what the issues were, how they were corrected and some of the misinformation that is out there about BetterHelp: www.reddit.com/r/cinema_therapy/comments/1dpriql/addressing_the_betterhelp_concerns_headon_deep/
    I am a huge supporter of online therapy and will continue to support it via the BetterHelp sponsorship. BetterHelp may not be for you, but it is a good fit for a lot of people.

    Though I personally knew the story of Ada, I am glad you covered it so more people hear about it, and from such a great storyteller too. I would just add that one of the reasons we didn't hear more about her story is because, by all accounts, she really hated attention and stayed away from the media. She was an introvert and once this "adventure" was over, she preferred privacy and quiet life and wasn't seeking fame and glory.

    • @adventuresgonewrong
      @adventuresgonewrong  6 місяців тому +10

      Yes that is so true. She hated the media who was hounding her, plus she was blamed for so much when in reality she persevered and survived.

    The part that inspired me most was when she carried her son. Survived an abusive husband, lost children, had a sick child, carried him to town and then gave him up for his sake. This was one amazing young lady. Not surprized she made it.
    RIP those poor men.

    TY for this account.
    About 25 years ago, I read another book about a group of stranded explorers that walked from Wrangle Island to Alaska, about 700 miles. The book was put together by the niece of one of the men on the expedition. She used his diaries and remembrances to try to provide as accurate an account as she could. Her uncle was born prematurely, and wasn't expected to survive, leave alone thrive. If I remember correctly, the uncle lived to be 93 - advanced old age by any standard. I've searched for the title of the book, but haven't come across it, or even anything close to an account of this expedition. Only the story you've related comes up.
    The CBC Canadian history series made in the 90s, has a surprising account of dealing with polar bears, gleaned from David Thompson's diaries. As a teen, he was in what is now Churchill, when the polar bears were gathered on the shore. Of course he was scared poop-less. The natives told him to just walk past them and don't look at them and they won't attack. I'm not sure if I could follow that strategy, but it seemed to work for him. He mapped about 1/3 of North America, and also lived to a ripe old age. Another surprising anecdote from that time was the natives insisting it was necessary to have women on the trip, because who would carry the heavy packs?
    It is sad that David Thompson's story is almost unknown. He lived an extremely eventful and productive life, his mapping being used for generations. As far as I've been able to tell, his diaries are now in some archive and are not published or publicly available. He did try to publish them in his lifetime, but couldn't get them printed for public consumption. He is a forgotten explorer, not given near as much credit as he deserves.

    • @adventuresgonewrong
      @adventuresgonewrong  6 місяців тому +2

My old junior high school is named after him and a few years ago I started researching him out of curiosity because in school we didn’t learn a lot about him. You’ve just given me more incentive to get back into his story! And that story about just walking past the polar bears… what! 🤣😳

But on the other hand if the men stayed on the camp site, Ada's survival and hunting instinct wouldn't materialized and who knows how the group would fair. Though I believe their survival would be better.

      Hm now I can't remember the name of Billy's father! Her life with her other 2 husbands isn't mentioned much.

    I've heard Ada's story a couple of times before, but your telling of it is far better - much more researched with extras I've never heard from anyone else. Plus I love your story telling style.

    I’m also curious about the ideas 💡 you had in the beginning of creating your channel?? Just watching your videos, I gather your an outside adventurer, would be interesting to hear some of your own experiences in the great outdoors ❤

      Must be interesting to experience the great outdoors in Canada 🇨🇦 I’m from a small town where we had the beach at one end and the outback behind us and around us. As an adult, Canada 🇨🇦 looks like a great place for a holiday destination to go explore some of the beautiful places I’ve seen only in videos like 👍 yours. I love your reciting of the Mount Everest tragedy in 1996, I really enjoyed seeing The events as they played out, it must have been a brutal ordeal for the survivors of that blizzard, and poor Beck Weathers, abandoned time and time again, I guess the allure of climbing would have paled against actually being able to hug his lovely wife peach, and his children after the nightmare of being so high on the 10 th of may 1996. And I’m baffled by the fact that David Brashears and his I max team went down due to the forecast of bad weather coming in. So I don’t understand why rob hall and Scott Fischer led their respective teams into the blizzard 🥶 that claimed peoples lives and cost so many families so much pain. It bothered me so much, the fact that David Brashears and his I max team came across the frozen 🥶 recently deceased bodies of people whom they had known . How could anyone deal with such an awful experience on Everest. Boggles my mind. Beck Weathers has said that climbing Everest is not an accomplishment in itself, but rather how much a person is revealed, moral courage, is what he actually said. I’m fascinated by high altitude climbing, but the cost and the risk is too high for me. You did a great job covering it. Parts 1, 2, and 3❤️❤️
