I do realize this is old footage and thank you for it. Pls keep us updates as much as you care to do. We do miss you and hope you and the family the best future. See you in the wild buddy.
Joe, there are lots of Canadian adventure UA-camrs that don't have nearly the Sub base that you do. What's the difference? You! You are still you. You haven't lost what makes you a great UA-camr. You will figure out how to work with your new normal, and we will be here watching.
Good to see you and good to see a vid drop, hope you are doing ok and hope to see new video of YOU gripping a paddle here shortly. No pressure, everybody wants the best for you. I think everyone has grief I know I do, the many loved ones and family whom have gone before us...the little things that trigger it, ( like me in Walmart an hour ago bawling from a song on the Walmart loudspeaker. U Kno you're old when u hear your music there 😂...) but anyway, the one thing I believe is that the life force in us, the energy goes on. The spirit goes somewhere...so I really believe we will all meet again in another place. What it is, I dunno...but energy I don't think it dies. It goes on, we go on. You are not alone. Keep on strokin brother, everyone is pulling for you praying for you. Lots of love to you and the family. ❤
Shingles is a weird one. It’s not something you catch, it’s your childhood chickenpox which has bee hiding out in your nerve cells dormant for most of your life. Stress weakens your immune system so up it pops. And cause it’s bursting nerves cells to do so, it hurts like the blazes. Can’t imagine how it must have felt with bugs bites, yikes! Also good to see ya Joe!
@@MaximusMerideus as always, DEPENDS. How old is the patient, what risk factors are involved? What is the story? The vax is a thing for people 50+ in the EU. I wouldn't do it below.
I am going through the archives to like every video and play them through to the end. It's not hard, people, and it keeps the income from UA-cam flowing. Let's all do our bit to support our Joe and his family. ❤️👍🏻
Go back and watch the few videos before this one. He was severely injered in a motorcycle accident. This is a pre accident video that was never published. @@fmilton20
Joe Ive been following you for the better side of 5 years. Never have I ever seen a human who utterly deserves a bit of luck more than you do, good lad. Best regards and love from Denmark
You have been so missed. You never leave our hearts. I’m sorry that the shingles got you, I think we all know someone who has had it. Prayers and love to you always!!!!
Joe, it's good to see the old footage. Hoping that you are continuing to heal. There is a five year window to healing, so be patient, know that your fans still love you and are here for you. I ask my client to send love to the parts inside of them that need healing. The negativity only prolongs the healing process. I'm sending lots of love in your direction.
Shingles affects one side of your body. If started at the belly button, it will wrap around your body to the middle of your back. For me, the pain was bad, really bad. Laid naked in bed, no top sheet, no covers. No ceiling fan, no drafts from a/c , even people walking causèd air movement. The only worst pain was breaking my neck at the base of my brain at C-1. I feel your pain.
Mine started as one big ‘pimple’ in the middle of my back right on my spine and wrapped around my entire body both sides. From below my belly button up to my arm pits. Took about 3 weeks to completely clear up but had phantom pain and itching for 6 months after.
been running your videos in the background on my computer since your accident. least i can do in return for all the great smiles over the years. praying for your recovery brother.
Those mosquitoes were relentless. Just seeing them constantly trying to get to him if it wasn't for the net. That's one species I would not mind going extinct.
You have had a real tough time Joe, but there is light at the end of the tunnel! I have been in some dark places and have sat in my car with a shit load of Oxy, thinking maybe just take the lot! I got a cat during lockdown called Mavis Parsnips, she saved my life! She gave me light! Push on Joe, push on! You make a lot of people happy!
Seeing this in my recommended and getting the alert put a smile on my face! My kids and I miss your videos, Joe! We all send our get well wishes, and we’re rooting for you!! ❤
hey man keep a video diary of your recovery, we like you and want to see you get better! you don't have to post old videos you can post updates on your condition, many people like to see others trying as it helps them.
Shingles is the 'dormant' version of chicken pox. Stress suppresses your immune system, and that gives a door way for the dormant virus to 'erupt.' You producing a video from old footage is AMAZING! That means you are making progress regaining your hands! What a blessing.
Can totally tell this was before the Bike incident... glad you healed up well after that shingles episode. Positive energies for your continued healing. 🤞🫥😶🌫️🤟🤗#Breathe #Gratitude
I am, 55yo, retired disabled veteran and a female, and I live vicariously through videos like yours. The beauty of this planet that you share is priceless but your health and safety should always come first. I know this video is older, but I have noticed through the years that you will push yourself to the absolute brink before you give up. Take breaks between these big trips and do some throw back Joe with some bushcraft camping. Love your adventurous spirit and I pray for you and your family.
(Edit, even though this is old footage, glad you shared it with us joe) Glad to see you out and about Joe, although seeing you shingle ridden and looking half beat up I want to give you a hug.
My Wife, who is a prayer warrior, watched this with me, and she prayed. Dood your adventuring spirit encourages me. Love the lost ones. Work so that no others will be lost.
Oh wow! Joe has posted a video. I clicked fast. So grateful to hear from you. I'm sorry you went through the awful pain of shingles on top of your brothers passing. I know that must have been such a tough time. It must have been good to get out where you can reset your mind in nature, but you were tormented out there by all those bugs, too. A tough trip for sure. I hope you are making some progress with your recovery. Never give up, you can sometimes be surprised by the regenerative powers of the body. All the best to you, Willa, and your family, Joe.
Glad to see you put something together hopefully this means your healing so you can get back out there, i dont even care that its old footage im always re-watch a lot of your videos some ive seen a few times
I had to settle affairs and final disposition of my younger brother just a few years ago. I never thought I would be doing that. I drove directly over the spot he was killed several hours prior while going down to my mother's house to comfort her after his death. Like to think I brought him home. We all are affected, more than we know, by these things. He'd want you to carry on, and I know you will.
I really appreciate your Devotion to your fans by getting up and getting out there in spite of all the pain to make a video for your fans who love you thank you so much
@@TRUMPONTHEGO I know that. you assume I think it was shot recently. I’m very aware he is not out in the wilderness at the moment. thank you for your comment.
Thank you Joe for taking us on a journey through your beautiful country all these years. All the best Joe... from your friends down in Lanzarote, Las Palmas... Buena vida para ti.
we miss u joe, ur a light to many of us me especially i watch you whenever i get down and u always make me happy n thatll never change, i hope you and the fam are all doin well we love you
Joe, oh do I know how you feel. I am just now getting over Shingles. I have been through so much stress since my Mom went to be with the Lord. I miss her so much. I will be Praying for you. 🙏🏻
😥 I'm so sorry to hear of your loss of your Mom, and that you have been dealing with Shingles. Get well soon. Read God's word, the holy Bible daily. It is one of the best and most comforting ways to find relief from our troubles. It also gives the best life advice.
To put it lightly, you've really been through the mill Joe. I first found your channel 6 years ago when I was feeling like everything was a bit much. Im better now and looking at all you've tackled lately i dont think i can compare but i suspect youd agree it isn't about comparing. Your videos, journeys and life are a true comfort to me and i send you all the thoughts and prayers a man who will probably never meet you can. God speed Mr Robinet.
I had shingles in 2006 - They put me on famcyclovir and it helped a lot. I also took fish oil to help my nervous system repair itself - I really loaded up on vitamins and the fish oil and that helped a lot... Turns out the fish oil helps rebuild nerve sheaths and shortened my recovery time immensely - Best of luck with recovery Joe - Shingles is no joke - Be good to yourself... God Bless.
We love and praying for you and will . I know you are going to make it and get better soon . I had shingles a few years back it hurt so bad . I can't imagine having it on my head or face .
Oh my God Joe I didn't realize your younger brother passed away I am so so sorry I can't say I know how it feels but I lost my mom my dad and my two sisters and now I'm the only one in my immediate family it sucks but God bless you Joe
I’m so sorry for your loss bud. It’s never easy loosing a loved one but he lives with you. I do the same to recenter myself when stuff goes sideways. Nature cures! Keep your head up and push forward.
Im out on an island with my dad hammock canping and this is exactly what i wanna watch before going to sleep, so happy to see you back out doing what you love again! Hope you start feeling better Joe im praying for you man
Thanks for posting a new video man. I needed it right now. They're so calming 9/11 times. Only 2 mins in, doesn't matter, I'm hooked. I want a canoe!!!!
Man I have been around for a while and I didnt realise how much I missed these videos! You are one of a kind mate and we are all here on the ride with you. Keep your head up and keep us updated, From Australia
You don't look that bad Joe I'm glad to see you back out there God bless take care of yourself and I enjoy the video please keep them coming I hope you recover soon
Had to drop a video of you in pain again. Drop an old video every day from your first “how to tie a knot” video and I will play them. Get well. We are with you
Hey man sry for your loss and hope you get better from all the stuff your going through and all you've suffered physically and mentally, we all wanna see that good ol joe we all love happy and healthy in the great outdoors
Happy to see you post what you got in your archieves. Joe, you've had a rough past few years with your brother and now your own injury and all. Life gave you lemons. You just gotta keep on moving forward and trust that this will eventually get better, because it will. Either physically better or by finding workarounds to the current limitations. Most likely both. Keep strong Joe, we love you! Love all the way from Finland!
A couple vlogs around the house would be nice. We understand that this is your job and you don't have to BE JAILLED into a box and by that I mean you brain telling you we need canoeing, long ass trips, etc.. Just take the camera and vlog start small simple easy projects with the kids, go outside the box man we love you and we'll be there to support. Do ads, merch and promote stuff we'll buy it we love you. Your brother passing is not your fault, in the big spectrum of things you are not responsible and you have to more UP look up and move forward and please no self sabotage and self harm that is linked to accidents and feeling guilty and responsible let it go. I WOULD look for an AYAHUASCA center in peru a little 2-3 days TRIP come back healed and a brand new man fresh start to continue to build life with your absolute unit of a loving beaity wife and precious kids take the time answer the call let go just let go try ayahuasca it will get you back 100/100 and let's continue :) A++
It's great to see you pop up on my home page! Dang man, my wife got shingles earlier this year (on her face as well)... affected her teeth and gums as well. She was hurting for months, and brother, I am sorry you have gone thru it too. Hope all is getting better on all fronts, chin up, we out here rooting for you man!
Hey Joe, I've been through some HUGE loses and trauma in my life too. Things DO get better man. I promise you. Focus on the positive things. No matter how small. Day by day, brick by brick. You WILL do this. You WILL get better.
Much love Joe. Good to see you even in such bad circumstances. I really hope you get better soon and I wish you and your family the best!❤ Much love to you and yours brother. 🙏
My mom had shingles, and it was truly horrifying. It both itched and hurt ‘like someone was hitting the area with a flame thrower.’ The blisters seeped all the time and caused her clothes to stick to her. I feel for ya Joe. Hoping you will feel better very soon.
i hope you’re alright and healing well man, haven’t watched any bush crafting vids for over 2-3 years but i saw the accident and the breakdown and again i hope you’re doing better, i was just in a pretty serious accident about a year and a month ago and had gotten a collapsed lung with broken ribs and a severe concussion. Edit: i it’s actually been about 5 and a half years since i’ve watched a video, man, it’s crazy how time flies.
Dude sorry to hear about your brother. Stress brought the chicken pox back as shingles. My 22 year old had a stroke in April and almost died. Needless to say my paddling this year has been cut short ; my life is upside down. God giving we expect a full recovery (though he is paralyzed on the left side). Canoe videos keep me sane. I usually spend 100 hours every year in my canoe and this year I have only logged 4. Hope the shingles passes soon. Time in the canoe has always been the best medicine for my mind. Thanks for sharing your experience and giving my mind a break. Take care...
I am so sorry to hear about your brother's passing and that you are dealing with shingles. I lost my older brother in the beginning of this year and I have had shingles 4 times now, I feel your pain. You can get shingles if you have had chicken pox before, the virus lies dormant in nerve endings and can reactivate when your immune system is lowered, in your case stress . Any person who has not had chicken pox should not touch the areas because it can cause chicken pox (varicella-zoster virus) and to be careful with towels and linens, etc. Shingles close to the eyes is extrememly concerning because it can affect the eye and potentially cause blindess. Please take care of yourself. Thinking of you and your family during this grief.
Been watching you for years Joe! With everything going on with you health wise...I know you been canoeing for years...even in calm waters stuff can happen. We can all think its trivial but at least wear some sort of PFD...you have the fam to get back to after these trips man. Cheers and keep fighting to get better! A lot of support for you brother!
Joe. I lost my best friend and brother on June 30th. Lost his battle with PTSD. You can only do so much. Just know that you did everything that you could. Sometimes they decision is already made and there is nothing that you can do except for knowing you did everything that you could. Glad to see another video and hope for a speedy recovery. I miss the adventures.
Loved seeing this notification, even though it's an od video!! I went camping this past weekend, for the first time since i was a kid. I survived lol, and loved it. Shared with several people there, about your channel and how much you've made we want to get out and camp. Wishing you well and praying for your recovery!
Your survival tips are so important. I wish you could still do an overnighter or weekend trip with a buddy close by maybe to show how to survive with an injury. So many instances were people find themselves abandoned in situations from crashes or going off course due to inclement weather. People become permanently or temporarily disabled and truly miss the outdoors because they don't know how to do things anything more.
Been watching you for so long now Joe, and love every video. It's been a tough few years but you keep portaging through! Hope your doing well post accident and excited to see some winter trips this year! Love from England.
I got Shingles randomly in Mid 2020. I was 25. Doc told me it was weird that I would have it, considering I am young, and she said that more than likely something tanked my immune system so bad that Shingles came to the surface. Never had the CoCo though. When I first got the Shingles, I thought it was a bug bite. My entire left arm felt like it was being torn apart every single day. I then thought I must've dislocated my shoulder or something. Nope. Just a bit of nerve damage.
What you don´t die from, makes you stronger. It´s no picnic and alot of pain involved. Love your channel and your content. Stay safe and heal proper! Thumbs up from Sweden
Hey dude, I hope this comment finds you well, I think being someone who has survived the on going gauntlet that is life overcoming both mental and physical struggles. Your channel has inspired me to test my own grit when I go camping and really get out there. I think your wealth of knowledge and wisdom would make a great book. Or your adventures inspire you to create your own stories. If you’re ever having a rough one and you want to truly relive adventuring you should write. It’s a great time to start as you mend your body back together. ❤️ from Michigan.
Much love from Germany. Your bids helped a bit when I went through very hard times. It angers me that life is so mean and uncompromising sometimes. I wish you the best of luck and health, your family as well.

Hey man sry for your loss and hope you get better from all the stuff your going through and all you've suffered physically and mentally, we all wanna see that good ol joe we all love happy and healthy in the great outdoors
I had shingles earlier this year. Fasted for a week, treated the rash with Castor oil and organic olive oil. 2 weeks. I worked through it too BTW.
Happy to see you post what you got in your archieves. Joe, you've had a rough past few years with your brother and now your own injury and all. Life gave you lemons. You just gotta keep on moving forward and trust that this will eventually get better, because it will. Either physically better or by finding workarounds to the current limitations. Most likely both. Keep strong Joe, we love you! Love all the way from Finland!
Hope you feel better buddy got a question for you what's up with your Facebook page did it get hacked
Thanks Joe for posting this old footage again and hope that you are healing well ! Take care Bud !
If you read this: We LOVE you! Be strong and god bless you!
I pray that Lucifer shines his light of truth into your life and keeps you free from the sickness that the Christian "God" has cursed you with.
Sorry for you loss and the health issues that seem to be caused by your brothers passing. I will keep you and your family in prayer.
A couple vlogs around the house would be nice. We understand that this is your job and you don't have to BE JAILLED into a box and by that I mean you brain telling you we need canoeing, long ass trips, etc.. Just take the camera and vlog start small simple easy projects with the kids, go outside the box man we love you and we'll be there to support. Do ads, merch and promote stuff we'll buy it we love you. Your brother passing is not your fault, in the big spectrum of things you are not responsible and you have to more UP look up and move forward and please no self sabotage and self harm that is linked to accidents and feeling guilty and responsible let it go. I WOULD look for an AYAHUASCA center in peru a little 2-3 days TRIP come back healed and a brand new man fresh start to continue to build life with your absolute unit of a loving beaity wife and precious kids take the time answer the call let go just let go try ayahuasca it will get you back 100/100 and let's continue :) A++
It's great to see you pop up on my home page! Dang man, my wife got shingles earlier this year (on her face as well)... affected her teeth and gums as well. She was hurting for months, and brother, I am sorry you have gone thru it too. Hope all is getting better on all fronts, chin up, we out here rooting for you man!
Hey Joe, I've been through some HUGE loses and trauma in my life too. Things DO get better man. I promise you. Focus on the positive things. No matter how small. Day by day, brick by brick. You WILL do this. You WILL get better.
I remember when this happened to you. Nice to watch again. Hope you are getting better, Joe. Continued prayers going out for healing.
Much love Joe.
Good to see you even in such bad circumstances.
I really hope you get better soon and I wish you and your family the best!❤
Much love to you and yours brother. 🙏
My mom had shingles, and it was truly horrifying. It both itched and hurt ‘like someone was hitting the area with a flame thrower.’ The blisters seeped all the time and caused her clothes to stick to her. I feel for ya Joe. Hoping you will feel better very soon.
i hope you’re alright and healing well man, haven’t watched any bush crafting vids for over 2-3 years but i saw the accident and the breakdown and again i hope you’re doing better, i was just in a pretty serious accident about a year and a month ago and had gotten a collapsed lung with broken ribs and a severe concussion.
Edit: i it’s actually been about 5 and a half years since i’ve watched a video, man, it’s crazy how time flies.
We love you joe keep pushing forward and remember its all baby steps little by little
Dude sorry to hear about your brother. Stress brought the chicken pox back as shingles. My 22 year old had a stroke in April and almost died. Needless to say my paddling this year has been cut short ; my life is upside down. God giving we expect a full recovery (though he is paralyzed on the left side). Canoe videos keep me sane. I usually spend 100 hours every year in my canoe and this year I have only logged 4. Hope the shingles passes soon. Time in the canoe has always been the best medicine for my mind. Thanks for sharing your experience and giving my mind a break. Take care...
It’s great to see this again. I hope you’re recovering well. Prayers and love for you and your family.
I am so sorry to hear about your brother's passing and that you are dealing with shingles. I lost my older brother in the beginning of this year and I have had shingles 4 times now, I feel your pain. You can get shingles if you have had chicken pox before, the virus lies dormant in nerve endings and can reactivate when your immune system is lowered, in your case stress . Any person who has not had chicken pox should not touch the areas because it can cause chicken pox (varicella-zoster virus) and to be careful with towels and linens, etc. Shingles close to the eyes is extrememly concerning because it can affect the eye and potentially cause blindess. Please take care of yourself. Thinking of you and your family during this grief.
Been watching you for years Joe! With everything going on with you health wise...I know you been canoeing for years...even in calm waters stuff can happen. We can all think its trivial but at least wear some sort of PFD...you have the fam to get back to after these trips man. Cheers and keep fighting to get better! A lot of support for you brother!
Thanks for the video Joe, fingers crossed for you and your family
Joe. I lost my best friend and brother on June 30th. Lost his battle with PTSD. You can only do so much. Just know that you did everything that you could. Sometimes they decision is already made and there is nothing that you can do except for knowing you did everything that you could. Glad to see another video and hope for a speedy recovery. I miss the adventures.
So sorry for the loss of your brother, stay strong, and get well soon is my prayer for you and your family ❤
Loved seeing this notification, even though it's an od video!! I went camping this past weekend, for the first time since i was a kid. I survived lol, and loved it. Shared with several people there, about your channel and how much you've made we want to get out and camp. Wishing you well and praying for your recovery!
Good to see you Joe , hope you’ll be back to 100% in no time , no matter the circumstances, we prevail
Your survival tips are so important. I wish you could still do an overnighter or weekend trip with a buddy close by maybe to show how to survive with an injury. So many instances were people find themselves abandoned in situations from crashes or going off course due to inclement weather. People become permanently or temporarily disabled and truly miss the outdoors because they don't know how to do things anything more.
Thanks for the video Joe. Hope the recovery is going well and cant wait for more videos.
Been watching you for so long now Joe, and love every video. It's been a tough few years but you keep portaging through! Hope your doing well post accident and excited to see some winter trips this year!
Love from England.
Awesome to see a new video, even if it's old footage. Keep on hanging on... We'll be here watching.
We miss you, Joe! Get well soon!!💪
I got Shingles randomly in Mid 2020. I was 25. Doc told me it was weird that I would have it, considering I am young, and she said that more than likely something tanked my immune system so bad that Shingles came to the surface. Never had the CoCo though.
When I first got the Shingles, I thought it was a bug bite. My entire left arm felt like it was being torn apart every single day. I then thought I must've dislocated my shoulder or something.
Nope. Just a bit of nerve damage.
Thank you for the video, Joe. We love you and hope the best for you.
Happy to see you, brother. I've been praying for you and your family. I'm sorry you have shingles, it sucks!
Thank you so much for this. Good to see you back when. Hope ur doing good. Love from Sweden
Omg. The bugs, that looks horrible Joe. So glad that you do this for us I know we all love watching your adventures❤
What you don´t die from, makes you stronger. It´s no picnic and alot of pain involved. Love your channel and your content. Stay safe and heal proper! Thumbs up from Sweden
Hey dude, I hope this comment finds you well, I think being someone who has survived the on going gauntlet that is life overcoming both mental and physical struggles. Your channel has inspired me to test my own grit when I go camping and really get out there. I think your wealth of knowledge and wisdom would make a great book. Or your adventures inspire you to create your own stories. If you’re ever having a rough one and you want to truly relive adventuring you should write. It’s a great time to start as you mend your body back together. ❤️ from Michigan.
Much love from Germany. Your bids helped a bit when I went through very hard times. It angers me that life is so mean and uncompromising sometimes. I wish you the best of luck and health, your family as well.
Hope you feel better soon.
Keep the faith, we’re here for you!
Thanks Joe.. missed your face 😊
