She wasn't "defeated by her own mind", what a weird thing to say -- she made a wise choice (and didn't regret it) for her safety and mental and physical health. She is to be admired for admitting she'd had enough, she had nothing else to prove. It actually takes tremendous courage and humility to make a choice like this, at the risk of appearing "weak", as you at the History channel imply here -- not cool. Brooke, i just love you, you're awesome.
Your priorities are spot on, you are so brave, you are an inspiration to all of us who want to get out there and be happy. I am 66 and retired now, but was a Ranger in Washington State for many years, I want to get back out there. Thank you. Glenda
The single biggest factor in many of these tap-outs seems to be mental. Loneliness can be a huge thing for a lot of people. I have heard it said that my ability to be alone is almost superhuman, so I have a hard time relating to people who succumb to isolation, but I can still easily recognize the symptoms of it.
@@arranoneill 1.- I have never been on Reddit. 2.- My I.Q. hasn't been tested since just after college (25-ish years ago), so I don't have the answer to that part of your question. I could be a full-blown imbecile at this point.
It was saddening to see you tap, Brooke, however, your sanity and well-being mean so much more than an attempt at monetary gain. You're a winner to us.
You proved to yourself what nobody else could ever convince you of. Now that you know you can move on without regret. You went, you tried and you failed. That is what life is all about and there are things that we need to prove to ourselves before we can change what we believe. Camping will always be in your future and you will have many great days ahead of you. Nothing to regret, so get out their and make some videos. Your puppy will be thrilled to see you again. Love in Christ, Capt. Gary
I believe it would be called institutional green" lol" You'll be fine. I once painted a bathroom safety yellow. . Now that was a mistake . LOL" You go Gurl....
I dream of being there,I know it’s not easy! No family and rainy weather is tough but still it’s what it’s all about,it’s a woodsman life to endure whatever nature wants us to endure.
Hi Brooke, WOW! I just came across this video and you are a different person but, you did way more than the average person and I applaud you for it. Cabin fever comes in many forms as well as lonliness. You're a trooper and an Alaskan.
Everyone has their own battles, their own struggles in everything they do in life! For me, I have spent much of my life alone. Now I have a granddaughter that I am raising. Before I had her, I probably could of managed this show on my own. You did what was right for you, what you could mentally handle- it's each to their own! I think you did a pretty amazing job! ❤
the combo between loneliness and starvation broke Ed Wardle in: Alone in the Wild - too. It's a bit like cabin fever. If you had an ipad full of videos and apps, in a cabin, with plenty of hot drinks, who knows how long you might last tho
I spent nine years on Vancouver Island. I did not like the extended rainy periods, but I would have liked to catch and eat more seafood. I'm in sunny Alberta now and I feel better, buying frozen pacific prawns in a bag. lol
You are amazing....you are such a lovely person. If you have proven any thing is that you have nothing to prove.....You are my hero.... Love n Blessings
to really conquer this type of challenge you either need steel resolve or to be a loner like me, but you also need the knowledge they have, of course i would fail bc i only have novice skills for survival. I like to be alone and never really had close friends. It is really tough to withstand the harsh environment but the mental part is very important
So this is the reason why there Utube has things to say about people's comments about participation in this show, she tapped huh I would have thought she would have lasted longer. Oh well she can always say she was on tv more than most can boast about. Great job Brooke you did your best , the mind when given the ample amount of time in survival will eat away at you this and unprepared skills is what gets people killed every year. I don't watch the show on tv every episode so this was a surprise to me.
I think you are the best, but why not the white tarp this time? I realize it is more then the tarp color. Great job, you are a brave person. Love to follow you, Glenda
One thing that spoiled this a bit was everyone got a tarp for the camera, so no one took a tarp. I wanted to see their choices of tarps. But I guess that would be worse for them as they loose one of the other items to take a chosen tarp. Also I wish I was told brands of sleeping bags
Good decision Brooke!!! You are the BEST :) Just wish you had more air time on ALONE during your stay in Mongolia - at least we have you on your UA-cam channel. Take care
I know Brooke from her UA-cam channel, she's a great woman... I want to participate in Alone, how do I do? saludos desde Paraná Entre Ríos Argentina...
People won't always make it because there not there to be there permanently and nevermind start wandering back to civilization and what is waiting for them drives them insane.
I"ve heard a CONSTANT refrain (on Reddit) that you dont need carbs (that protein and fat are enough). Well, no they aint, especially if you're not Innuit, and even those folks ate the stomach contents of caribou and during the summers, stocked up on greens, tuber, berries.
if you know what to do to get adequate amounts of food (mostly making netting) you'd be too busy to notice your tent color, believe THAT. Lack of food depresses you, especially carbs. When you boil enough fish, you'll have some fish oil to drain off into a container. Boil some cambium, toss the turpentine laden water, fry the cambium in fish oil, and make it about 1/3rd of your diet. That gives you the carbs that your brain needs to work optimally.
they can't be bothered to look at even one of these channels, or any forums, any survival manuals or even google anything, or they'd be doing 10x better than they are. I'm embarrassed for them, actually. This is their SECOND try at this, with BIG money at stake, INTERNATIONALLY looking like a fool on public TV. Cub Scout stuff, man.
Indeed, especially your second time of international exposure on TV. The kind of women who CAN handle this are not in the US or Canada. They are in SE Asia.
haha, I knew when I saw her walking up to the hills and not even trying to fish or trap that she made her mind up to tap and just wanted to see the top of the hills before going home.
you have to catch canines and cats with the big treblehooks, connected to drag logs. You have to take a slingbow, so that you can shoot baked clay balls and arrows. You have to make 2 fishhooks out of each tine of 5 of the 6 4-tined fishing arrowheads. You have to take the 3 lb salt block, for use as bait. You have to make 4000 sq ft of 4" mesh netting out of the 20x20 tarp, and use it properly. Then you wont starve, and you dont get so depressed and weirded-out.
you are the first and only one to acknowledge it, in over 3 years of posting about this show. Everyone else is either totally ignorant, or eaten up with NIH syndrome.
She needed to be fishing, getting greens, searching for food, instead of just sitting around waiting for it to magically fall from the sky, and make jewelry and stuff. I believe food would have be a priority over making jewelry. Plus, her shelter wasn't much this time around...very poor effort, and little thought...
Please never allow another Whipple on Alone again... So tired of the Hobby Lobby adventurers wasting space in the seasons... No people with pregnant wives either... I want to see people committed to the challenge and not out to make jewelry, wind chimes, and dream catchers.
they are NOT getting lots of food. In actuality, they are losing weight. All of them. A LOT of weight. The best of them are only getting an average of 1400 calories per day, at best, when they need 3000 calories or more, despite its being summertime.
bet your but that IF there's a next seaon, somebody on it will find a way to make lotf of netting, especially if they are not fat. If they do so well, they'll win, quickly and easily
you "handled vancouver" the same way almost all women "handle" things. You had a man do most of it for you. I think that you're honorable enough to admit it, unless most US women.
I don't know you but I've seen a couple of your comments on this video. I have a random question for you. Have you seen Bear Grylls The Island men vs woman? Were you suprised about the contrast between the two teams?
Tasha you butthurt? Looks like your just another female putting down another woman success. You jealous? It really seems like you are. I didn't see you on T.V. maybe you should get off your own butt and do something productive and you'll be to busy to criticize what others are doing with their lives.
must be nice to be able to just blow off a clear 1/4 million $ so easily. All it takes, folks, is make and use some netting (properly). That river is ideal for the use of seines and baited net-weirs.
I love the Whipples. Brooke is such a personal hero of mine. She knows what she wants and she fearlessly and tirelessly pursues it. She's on fire!
I relate to the deep longing to be in the wilderness. It calls to you and if you ignore it, it just eats at you until you answer
She's gone
@@deborahevans4472 ?
Kendra she gone referring to Brooke always saying that at end of her videos
@@deborahevans4472 ohhh okay that makes sense lol

Brooke is an amazing lady!
Be proud you’ve accomplished what many just couldn’t begin.
those "many" dont belong on this show then, right? Can you even admit that?
Like bill randall or Bali song, Tasha Deleon acting smart but never being on the show
It was saddening to see you tap, Brooke, however, your sanity and well-being mean so much more than an attempt at monetary gain. You're a winner to us.
Well Done Brooke. You did your best
Love her in the show the girl in the woods! She can do anything!
except be alone
I been alone for years. Maybe I'm ugly or something? I don't know.
Now and then, I sneak up on the mirror.
You proved to yourself what nobody else could ever convince you of. Now that you know you can move on without regret. You went, you tried and you failed.

A nice long book should always be one of the ten objects.
Good for you, Brooke. You did right.
you were willing to give your best. you're an ace in my book !!!!!
Awe Brookie : ( YOU made the right decision, you should have taken Maisy xo
you did great Brookey,,,,,oh to be human...........
Wow. I did not see the prior episodes. Poor Brooke!!! Starving and wiped out.
28 days.. i could nap for 28 days
Still love yer channel Brook...
I believe it would be called institutional green" lol"

I know her love for Dave was stronger than her love of being there!
There can only be one!
I think that Brooke is truly amazing. I would take a survivalist course with her any day . she can even be the teacher.
I spent nine years on Vancouver Island. I did not like the extended rainy periods, but I would have liked to catch and eat more seafood. I'm in sunny Alberta now and I feel better, buying frozen pacific prawns in a bag. lol
LOVE LOVE LOVE this couple!! Im watching ALONE right now and she is a crack up. I have been rooting for them.❤
♥♥♥......You were never truly alone GF......we luv and respect you n Dave.........never forget that..Sven
You are amazing....you are such a lovely person. If you have proven any thing is that you have nothing to prove.....You are my hero.... Love n Blessings
I was shocked that she tapped...she still a winner.
There should be no twice. You should only get one chance. Let someone else have a chance
Introverts: "first time?"

Bill Randal is now bali song 😂😂😂
Doughroaster Bushcraft And Survival no, there was bill Randall and then he split into Bali song
I hear you baby 💖✌🌝
You've done great Brooke!
And I... I must confess I still believe
left on her terms ... her challenge completed. Much better than I could have done I am sure ... Well done!
Why does no one ever bring a huge umbrella
What you learned and experienced out there is invaluable! Good for you trying again!! Oxox!
next time you try this get a baby blue tarp aye.

I thought you guys brought white tarps. How did you get into green tarp? Thanks
U are still a Winner in every since of the word!
I'd love to be chillin in there smoke a little bit herb and just lay back
Good decision Brooke!!! You are the BEST :) Just wish you had more air time on ALONE during your stay in Mongolia - at least we have you on your UA-cam channel. Take care
Are we ever going to see this season on History in the uk??
A good book an tasty food! Why starving?
I know Brooke from her UA-cam channel, she's a great woman... I want to participate in Alone, how do I do? saludos desde Paraná Entre Ríos Argentina...
People won't always make it because there not there to be there permanently and nevermind start wandering back to civilization and what is waiting for them drives them insane.
You survived longer on Vancouver Island because of your husband. You really didn't have your head in this game. Good luck girl in the woods.
i don't understand why she came back. at all. she didn't learn anything, she just starved for 2 seasons.
I"ve heard a CONSTANT refrain (on Reddit) that you dont need carbs (that protein and fat are enough). Well, no they aint, especially if you're not Innuit, and even those folks ate the stomach contents of caribou and during the summers, stocked up on greens, tuber, berries.
Oh man Brooke!!! Wow it does remind you of a psych ward! Uhhhggg! Congrats Brooke you are strong!
Awwww so sorry hun. You gotta do what ya gotta do.

I'd like a pm with you. Is there any particular forum or way that we can make that happen?
You talk a good talk, but you don't look like you can even put up a tent.
I am glad that you are an expert, why don't you try to do it? Instead of giving advice?
I'm sorry I know these people have hard if I could only know how to get on the show it would be a vacation compared to what I go through
That's why people should meditate for an hour or more every day and it'll help you for being lonely. 😁😊😊
Brooke...I like the name...!
Great job Brooke!!! You and Dave ROCK!!!
Do you think you might have had CO poisoning a bit from the fire? It drains you of energy
Her husband would have had a way better chance. Why would you send her back?
haha, I knew when I saw her walking up to the hills and not even trying to fish or trap that she made her mind up to tap and just wanted to see the top of the hills before going home.

Why the Hate? I think she is great, I will bet you couldn't do it.
Y is green bad for the mind?
Green is no longer her favorite color.
This woman is funny
Why did you do this again, did common sense not tell you that being alone this time would be worse?
sorry ik kan geen engels maaik hu van jou love jou from the neterland
Did u notice how as she was leaving, the sun came out. Mmmmmmm
She needed to be fishing, getting greens, searching for food, instead of just sitting around waiting for it to magically fall from the sky, and make jewelry and stuff. I believe food would have be a priority over making jewelry. Plus, her shelter wasn't much this time around...very poor effort, and little thought...
since when do they get to take a stove?
Was it enough of a try for half a mill?
Fun On Vancouver Island what’s more important, some money that won’t last, or your sanity?
I hate green tarps!
if you cant handle being alone, why go on the show where you are ALONE?
no kidding.
2 time tapper
Dat was a complete waste of time
How did he know it when they want to come home cuz I didn't hear her say come get me
Off screen?
Interesting about a white tarp cheering you up more
The participants tend to justify leaving as "a choice", when it was not. It is a way of denial. They gave up.
This is very true.. anyone that says it's their choice is in denial....
I mean what is the point of participating again if you want to give up.
this whole season was an eff-over to the thousands who could do much better.
Wrong priorities and a weak mind.
So positive! Lol jk
Aww, girl, it's like chinese water torture,ya? Clothes, damp, food, moldy. Wood wet. Body itichy an dirty hair.
Quit x2
Hopefully there won't b a #3
Female clips are always sooo boring and like has one of them even won

not at all. Modern, western women do well to find their butts, when searching for hours with both hands.
