I live in very remote Alaska and I absolutely know this man was very very fortunate. To accomplish this journey in the summer would have been difficult but in the Alaskan winter.........
It's amazing what people can accomplish, especially in such challenging conditions! The Alaskan winter is no joke, and this journey truly shows the strength and resilience of those who take it on.
Leon Crane was not a woodsman. He was very innovative and did not give up. Read his story in the book, 81 Days Below Zero. Or read his story in the book, Coming Into the Country, by John McPhee.
The Germans were faced with similar conditions of biting cold during WW2 on the Russian Steppe. It was generally well known that if you slept outside, you would die (of the cold). It was therefore essential to find a dwelling near the end of the day to take shelter to avoid being frozen to death. When lighting a fire, ALWAYS use dead wood from fir trees. Use live wood and you will die, as it will not support a flame. Watch for wolves, either singly or in a pack!
@@LaHayeSaint yes. I see. but Germans came in Russia intentionally. and they expected hot winter. in alaska they accidentally fall down. and they had very good winter jackets.
Here is how it works in Alaska. I’m from Alaska and live in a remote cabin. Cabins are often left unlocked with supplies and even precut firewood ready for a quick warming wood stove. It’s understood that individuals can become lost or stranded and without food and shelter not last very long. Alaskan tradition has always been an open home, food and warm stove to any who might be in such need. I once returned to my cabin after some time away and found a note of gratitude from a couple who took shelter there, absolutely nothing had been disturbed except a small portion of food and use of my generator.
None of the aircraft shown at the beginning was actually a Consolidated B-24 ‘Liberator’…..Great narration and a well researched story…..Terrible fete to suffer….Feel so sorry for the rest of the Liberator’s crew, those poor, brave young men who perished in the crash….And of course, the other chap who bailed out and failed to make it….An incredible tale of survival against all the odds!…..Greetings from England…❤🏴🇬🇧🇺🇸❤
Thank so you much for your great comment and support! Yes, you’re right. As we, mostly for legal reasons, don’t show the actual images the aircrafts are different. However, we keep your great advice in mind for our next videos and try to use better footage 👍
@@epicsurvivalstories No worries…I’m glad you liked my comment….You can show any images of any B-24 Liberator, maybe not the actual aircraft involved, but nothing says you can’t show “a” B-24 Liberator….Especially as that’s the aircraft type involved…Just a small tip….There’s NO “S” in Aircraft…It’s both singular and plural!
None of the area shown at the beginning was actually alaska. so exciting. unbelievable. survival story . sitting inside cabin. with food and heat. and what a voice!!! so dramatic.
@@epicsurvivalstories anything above about 60 degrees to me is like walking into an oven, I do like hot baths but only for a few minutes but I love to jump into freezing lakes while in the nude of course to avoid the frost on clothing
@@epicsurvivalstories for most people 50 degrees feels more like about 20, for say a person in Australia who sees cold weather by traveling out of country someone who are not tolerant of cold, however for me in underwear, a 32 degree wind-chill feels only like about 50 in my mind due to my lifestyle and area I live winter is flat out dangerous due to lots of snow
I never understand why when flying in wilderness, survival supplies are never stowed in planes. Food blankets, small axes. And anything else that would make chances of survival better.
A Song to get you through.. 3 days 3 nights i sailed the sea i think of Girl Constantly i dream shes there i smell the Rose in her Hair Loui Loui we gotta go now we gotta go i'll never leave her from my arms again
You want an awesome story to tell. Tell the story of Albert Johnson Canadas most notorious police officer killer of the Northwest Territories and the Yukon.
Impossible to survive … then how did he survive… it not impossible obviously…. As long as you can make a fire you can survive almost anything and anywhere….
Gee he had a gun and didn’t hunt to survive… how stupid is the guy… you don’t burn up your food without trying to hunt for more food… so this guy didn’t know crap in survival… what does the military actually teach you.. obviously not how to survive…
@@sharzadgabbai4408 you hang food up … and the animals will come…. They smell up to 2 miles away….. get a good smell in the air .. and wait ….. why are you told to hang your food in a tree… so the animals don’t get to it….. duh….
Thanks for your comment, I appreciate it. In my mind, the cabins made it easier, but it was still a brutal time in the wilderness, with long walks outside the cabins and a lot of uncertainty.

Just subscribed. This guy was clearly a woodsman. He was also very lucky. Cabin after Cabin 😮
Leon Crane was not a woodsman. He was very innovative and did not give up. Read his story in the book, 81 Days Below Zero. Or read his story in the book, Coming Into the Country, by John McPhee.
Thanks for your support and subscribing! It was a great combination of luck and resilience that made him surviving.
@@mattsweet7918
Thanks for the suggestion
Yes, I was wondering who built and stocked those cabins. I had no idea about the “community” and caring aspect of those cabins.
He wasn’t a woodsman. He was a city boy from Philadelphia
Wow, what a story. I'm new to the channel, I think I'll enjoy it very much. The illustrations in the story are beautifully done.
Absolutely astonishing
He was met to survive by our Lord, he was blessed to survive for a reason.❤
Thanks for your comment!
amazing human
Definitely!

Great survival advices, thank you for sharing those (y)
The Germans wanted to come in Russia and they came in Russia. what they expect? hot whether ?
@@epicsurvivalstories ❤❤❤❤
@@eliotness4029 My comment drew parallels between the winter conditions of the Russian steppe and the Alaskan wilderness.
@@LaHayeSaint yes. I see. but Germans came in Russia intentionally. and they expected hot winter. in alaska they accidentally fall down. and they had very good winter jackets.
People maintaining cabin to help others ❤
Thank you for highlighting this! That's truly heartwarming.

Great video 😊
Thanks for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you! Another amazing story!
I'm glad you enjoyed the story! Your support means a lot to me.
Most of us never push ourselves to see how far we can go. The military helps us to do that.
Absolutely! Thanks for your comment.
Thanks for sharing the story with us. I enjoyed it very much.😊
I'm so glad you enjoyed the story! It means a lot to me to share it with you all.
That is incredible.
Interesting how there are random uninhabited cabins in the middle of nowhere in Alaska stocked with supplies 😅
Yes, absolutely crazy but obviously for a good reason...

Love this channel! 🥇
Thanks for your ongoing support! A new video will be pbulsihed today.
I could not survive in a hot desert environment....however cold weather is something I'm very experienced with
It's interesting how we all have different strengths! I'm sure you could use your skills in the desert as well..

Did he get some one to go back and replenish the supplies in the cabins
Good question. I think the answer to that was nowhere shared.
Great Video once again! I bet the person making these videos is really cool ;)
Oh, you bet! The coolness factor is off the charts - just ask my pet goldfish! 🐠
I never understand why when flying in wilderness, survival supplies are never stowed in planes.
Food blankets, small axes. And anything else that would make chances of survival better.
They just don't expect to go down, I guess. A small change could help so much!
I spent two days one night survival school basic training.
That's amazing, how did you like it?
Tzats amazoning!
I'm glad you think so! It's always exciting to share amazing content with everyone.
Wow he found many cabins 😮
How did the cans of food not freeze and burst?
Keeping them in your jacket and using your body heat when on the move. Indoors it can be 30-40 degrees warmer than outside
The B24 had variabke pitch propellors. A starbiard engine teversed pitchfrom a defect
And put the aircraft into a flat spin
Thanks for the feedback! We'll take it into account for future videos.
😢 crashed i hope God was w/him
Terrific story, well told. (Just a little too much drama in the telling)
Thank you, I appreciate your feedback!
so exciting. unbelievable. survival story . sitting inside cabin. with food and heat.
I live at that place for 3 years
Sounds like a survival story for this channel ;)
Im surprised he didnt encounter a bigfoot ...😊 God mustve kept him safe ...❤ God is so good b cuz we r his creation ❤
He survived because he found those cabins.
They were definitely a key part in his survival! But without his resilience and determination even the cabins wouldn't have been enough...
Why are WW2 bomber crewmen using ram air parachutes? Come on guys, details matter.
Thanks for the feedback! We'll take this into account in future videos.
It would have been better with reenactment video.
Thanks for your feedback!
A Song to get you through.. 3 days 3 nights i sailed the sea i think of Girl Constantly i dream shes there i smell the Rose in her Hair Loui Loui we gotta go now we gotta go i'll never leave her from my arms again
I think I would have stayed at the first cabin
@johnryan-gr8bs, and you would've perished in that 1st cabin. The supplies were running out there.
I love your drawings 🛖
Thank you so much! Your feedback means a lot
Wow i lived almost the same situation the only difrence is that i lived it in the jungels of central america
❤🎉
Thank you for your support!
🎉im so captivated by the story of person who comments thats as city boy he cant last a day in wilderness being terrified of a cockcroach
Unfortunaly the "cockcroach story" doesn't qualify to make a video about it :D
Wanted to live
Definitely!
I'm a city boy , i freak out when I see a cockroach , wouldn't survive one night !
Haha, I get you! Those little guys can really freak you out! City life can be wild like that!
You might be surprised by your abilities if you wound up in a similar situation. Never give up.
Never too late to start learning skills needed for survival
Ahhh, you would do better mate
You want an awesome story to tell. Tell the story of Albert Johnson Canadas most notorious police officer killer of the Northwest Territories and the Yukon.
THank you for your suggestion, we will look into his story and see if it fits to our channel!
The plane pictured was not a B-24..
Thank you for your feedback. We'll take that into account for future videos.
he should of whistled to call his horse
Bla bla bla
I probably would’ve just stayed in the first cabin and lived out my time there.
Who knows if somebody would find you there soon enough...
I’ve lit a fire in the rain with wet leaves … try to figure that one out …
🆒😎👍
Thanks for your support!

That's right! This is what we aim to show with our survival stories. Humans are able to survive much more than most people think.
Gee he had a gun and didn’t hunt to survive… how stupid is the guy… you don’t burn up your food without trying to hunt for more food… so this guy didn’t know crap in survival… what does the military actually teach you.. obviously not how to survive…
You ever ‘hunt’ in Alaska? I have. Large stretches of winter lands have very little game
@@sharzadgabbai4408 you hang food up … and the animals will come…. They smell up to 2 miles away….. get a good smell in the air .. and wait ….. why are you told to hang your food in a tree… so the animals don’t get to it….. duh….
Not sure if find a multiple cabins food and guns qualifies as brutal but OK.
Thanks for your comment, I appreciate it. In my mind, the cabins made it easier, but it was still a brutal time in the wilderness, with long walks outside the cabins and a lot of uncertainty.
Try it yourself
So a USAF plane goes down and they bother to even look for it
