- This is the new version of this commentary with the missing scenes included only for the European version, that go further into the feeling of being alone in the house with a ghost. I've even noticed something else in the background after doing this upload. It was a pretty dark and creepy feeling. but in any event if you have already watched this then you can skip ahead to the house on the fjord or enjoy it all over again with your favourite beverage of choice!

#Survivorman #LesStroud
"Hey! Survivor Man is on!" I can still hear my grandmother yelling out the window like it was yesterday. This was her favorite program. I had to drop whatever I was doing and go watch it with her. 😆. Still a huge fan Les.
I know your as old or older than me/grew up with gramma/grampa calling it a program😆
No other survival show compares to these, I find myself watching them over and over, so glad you put them all on UA-cam, also love the directors commentary’s.
Me too. I watched man vs wild growing up too (I’m 28) and I found it interesting and informative (I thought as a kid). I’ve always loved Survivorman the most out of the survival shows but when I learned man vs wild was bullshit and as I’m maturing I appreciate and love Survivorman and Les’s innovation and artistic integrity. He doesn’t treat his audience like they are morons.
Les, you've alluded to numerous 'strange' things happening to you out in the wilderness during several Survivorman: Bigfoot commentaries, this episode, and other places. Any chance you'll ever make a video compiling all the stories of these strange happenings into one place? I know I'd love to see that.
Also, big fan, your work is always awesome.
Even if you absolutely don't believe, everyone LOVES a spooky story. Guaranteed "thumbs up" button magnet!
@@SteveEdzPainter oh there really is something strange in the wilds, theres countless people who have seen and or experienced it and spoken about it, all around the world, too many to call them all fake, I have seen and heard things I still can't explain in the wilds of the woods here in canada and I grewup all my life outdoors, I know lots of the animals here and learned all that are in my area and stuff I can't explain no animal can explain, only when I learned from the local native medicine man the stories he told from his clan and the tales passed down from gerneration to generation kinda explained it a little bit, you have to experience the weird to know it and you really don't want to see it you will turn white as a ghost and be scared to death! whatever it is needs to be given respect of the wilds to start its no joke.
@@antlerr oh I believe it. Too trapped in the concrete jungle now. Not sure if I'll ever witness it myself. Not sure if that's good or bad.
@@SteveEdzPainter when I seen it with a old friend my friend was abusing the land not sure if that had a thing to do with it making itself seen and scarying us out of there, but the natives here call it "the guardian of the forrest" so I really wonder, I used to camp out there lot's in the area once one whole summer I was out there and then I only heard weird things around my camp always kept away from the fire light and far from where my flashlight could reach, I don't know if good or bad depends on what makes them get seen. I do know it is a creature needing lots of respect as in don't disturb its home, don't be a threat kinda stuff but who knows, it wasn't easy to have the medicine man teach me and my family at one point has relations in three rivers cree, so the averadge person they won't really speak to sadly don't blame them many think there telling wild stories.
@@antlerr interesting. I'm one of those people that are hypervigilant when outdoors, so I don't know if I would wish that experience on myself. I would never sleep. But I do enjoy hearing and reading these accounts by others. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Me and my little brother watched survivorman together growing up he passed away in 2013 when he was 23 when I watch your videos it reminds me of watching with him. Thanks for having it on UA-cam like this Les .
Im so sorry❤❤❤
@@lisamr40 🤝🙏
Les, i grew up with you from when I was 10 years old, im 30 now but seeing you and survivorman is like seeing an old friend:)
Hearing his voice always brings me back to when I was a kid watching his shows back to back on summer break I couldn't have been more than 10 or 11 years old but it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen on TV 😁
same, use to come home and watch
This comment is on the button 👌👌 I feel absolutely the same
I was about 14 and had terrible insomnia. Turned on the tv and the artic episode had just started. I was completely fixated on it and have been a fan ever since. Got to meet Les back in 2010 and he was so great!
Same here, started watching when I was 12, I’m 32 now. Crazy to think about. And Les still looks great!
Hi Les, thank you for revisiting this and expanding upon the "ghost story," and props to Luke for editing this all together. I can't wait to hear about the other creepy unexplainable experiences. Enjoy your trip!
Yeah man.. les knows what his fans are thinking and wants... after the last dc of noway, it left me wondering. Thanks les!!
Could you please give me an idea of when in the video does he speak about the ghost story?

Les, me and my grandfather use to watch you every day growing up. I learned so much. I now watch all your reruns on Tubi and it helps me sleep. I say this because it's comforting your videos being me back to a place a of peace. I lost my grandfather at the beginning of this year and I'm happy watching you still makes me feel like he's still here in some odd way❤
Thank you for all you do. You are forever a Canadian and around the world legend! You paved the way for all these new survival shows but they do not come close to what you do! Your one of a kind Les! Stay blessed and healthy my friend
Thanks for the commentary on this episode Les! This too is one of my most favorite episodes you shot! I’d love to hear more about the creepy house! 😃👍😂 Just like a lot of the others here. I too have been watching you for many years! Keep up the Great work you do! I always look forward to seeing you do your work! Cheers!😃🍻😃
I saw the moving light fixture in the background. Creepy.
I’m glad you explained the reupload. I spent the first hour and 40 min thinking i swear I just watched this lol. Glad you found the other footage
I work outdoors regularly, and I learned so much from you, Les; especially from Hydration. There have been so many times where everyone around me is sick, but I'm fine because I stayed hydrated and used your advice.
Loved this two-parter, and the commentary. Aside from everything else, it gives me such pleasure to see Les, after all his adventures and survival ordeals, kicking back with a smoothie or enjoying wine o'clock (or enjoying the incomparable beauty of Istanbul by the Bosphorus). But in addition to all that, I particularly loved Les singing a snippet from a (brilliant) song by Squeeze while preparing those Norwegian blue mussels!!!
Highly fascinating! Can't wait for the full story. There is definitely more to this universe then we can comprehend.
"its all in your mind you just dont know how big your mind is"
Can you give me a timestamp? I watched the whole video but was distracted at times. I didn't hear the ghost story
@@ljb8157 1:42:38
@@ENTERTAININGVIDEOS1 thank you!
@@ljb8157 Your Welcome!!!
I didn't get notified that this re-edited version was posted! Glad I'm seeing this now!
As a Canadian there's lots here I've never seen before. Every episode is great. Thank you for making them.
This is the best show right before I go to bed.😊
Man I used to love watching your show as a kid, recently decided to UA-cam you and see if I could find a new show, and man let me tell you how excited I was too see all these new episodes along with all the old ones I used to watch. I ended up binge watching your whole channel, best way to unwind at the end of the day. Just wanted to say I highly appreciate the content that you put out for us
Nice comment deserves at least 1 👍
Brother Les, you always came across. as 100% genuine with all you do. Thank you so much for your great work! I never get bored watching your adventures.
Les! My grandfather was the owner of the chestnut canoe company. My father, and uncle etc all grew up building canoes when paps opened up the shop back in NB - and i spent a great deal of time canoeing and camping with my father growing up. I'm not big into Nationalism - so there are few things that make me feel "proud to be a Canadian", or - "i'm happy they are Canadian", or they are "ours". However if someone were to ask - my response would be "the tragically hip", and "Les Stroud". Great to see your channel growing!
I can't wait to see this. I have been a huge fan of Les for years.
Premiere at 3:30am. Nice.
Nice.
Perfect.
It’s 5:30am somewhere…

LOL the birds outside my window responded to the birds in the opening sequence 😂💜 can’t wait for this one!!!
Boss. Thanks for the decades of work, wisdom, and intimacy.
Am I losing my mind? I feel like I've seen this commentary before, even though it was just released. Obviously still watching it 😅
As I pressed enter on this comment the scene on the cruise came up. Glad I'm not crazy
I never believed in ghosts or spirits until I worked in an old house and when I was alone (and many times when I wasn’t), I would hear footsteps, doors would open and close, voices, and a deep sense of not being alone. I would have to tell clients that I was expecting coworkers to be coming in and leaving so that when they heard someone walking around and talking, they wouldn’t get freaked out. We moved the business to another location and I have not had a single creepy weird experience. I know exactly the feeling you felt. Was it all in your head? Was it all in mine? Who knows? But it didn’t seem all in my head when clients asked me who was calling my name in the other room and I knew we were “alone”. I’m just glad to be out of there, finally.
This is the best of the best, and I'm so happy you did this one finally!
Never thought I'd see new scenes! Lucky Brits with the extended cut.
Hey Les. Not sure if you noticed but @ 1:48:35 , whatever that thing that is haning in the other room, why was it swinging back and forth? It was doing that for a few mins if you didnt notice.
I didn't notice it until I watched this back right here on the channel - now I'm freaked out....
You also mentioned the only thing you found in the house was salt. Salt is used in some religious practices as purification or protection from evil spirits.
This comment needs more love
@@TrueHelpTVwhat do u see moving? I looked over that time stamp for minutes and saw nothing
@@LiberalsReadmyBio 1:50:41
Norway always was my favorite episode, also one of the first I saw on German television.
getting this extra long Commentary about it is great, and the ghost story makes it even more special!
I really hope you expand your "paranormal brand" more.
Even the naysayers should admit, that those are good campfire stories.
I have not read up on demonology or any such thing, but I love the idea of the spirit, as in it being a Norwegian spirit, having absolutely no idea what you are saying. And instead thought to itself, "Oh, a foreigner, let's leave it alone."

@@RobertSlover I'm a Puritan and a Whig, I have no choice but to believe that the material world we can observe is just a small piece of what is.
The modern invention that is the religion of Atheism, is the intellectual equivalent of a disgruntled child picking up the ball and going home.

@@RobertSlover Hopefully, as you grow older, you may read some decent books along the way.
Perhaps then you will grow beyond a single quote.
@@Hugebull 😋😋😀
Love your shows Les!!😊❤😊❤
Les, I'm from Missouri, USA... we also wearing them long John's 😂
St Joe Mo here!
Les, watching your show always brings me back to those days of sitting with my dad after dinner to watch. We'd always laugh at how ridiculous bear grillz was compared to you. Memories I'll always cherish
I used to think that ghosts were complete fabrications and the result of sensory illusions or paranoid hallucinations, until I encountered what I can only describe as a ghost in my own life. There are things in this old world that exist beyond our everyday comprehension.
"its all in your mind you just dont know how big your mind is"
@@RobertSlover No, it's not. Not in this specific instance, it wasn't. It was corroborated by my gf, who was in another room on another floor of the house and heard the whole thing. I can go into the details, if you like.
@@miltonbates6425 you missed the point milton....
@@RobertSlover I missed the quotation marks. Haha.
@Milton Bates Gimme the details I am now curious
Les, this is my favorite piece of media ever. It hits on so many levels. Thank you Les
Eagerly awaiting "Survivorman: Ghosts" now!
Les, I love how you talk to yourself during these commentaries haha it’s just too funny. Especially when you’re like “that guy knows what he’s talking about”. Never gets old.
I have loved your adventures for many years. You are the best of all of them!
Les Stroud, you are likely the coolest person who ever lived. I can't think of anyone greater, truly. Much love to you pal.
I never saw this episode before. Jesus Les, that was terrifying. I can imagine what was going through your mind and what you were saying. I'm a dad too. The angels were with you that day.
It is interesting on your commentary about saying "Good spirits" that you said this as a way to reassure yourself. That actually does come across in the original video. I remember thinking "he must be sensing a ghost". Lol.
Les is hammered and gets all confused in the beginning. Love this man. Legend
For me, this film just reenforces why soo many people call the snow white death, and remembering my personal experiences in the snow many years ago.
Hi Sir,
Thank you for the extra footage. We appreciate it. I love your work. Have a lovely weekend 😍
Awesome episode! Thanks so much for doing this!
Crazy that you almost died and then have experiences with ghosts. So glad you're still with us! You should update us on what your kids are doing these days.
Hey, Aussie's like to swear when we're stressed too, no just Canadian's. So glad you made it out!!
Good tidings from the Painted Desert Arizona. God Bless you and yours .
This one was always my favorite, and reliving it with you on the Director's Cut was awesome! It was neat to find out about the ghost story, because I remember first seeing this second pt and wondering why there weren't many scenes in the house. Being in the US, we always got the shorter episodes. Probably so they could sell us advertising, LOL
I don't know what it is with the people you mention that just don't read the title of the video you're posting. I really enjoy your directors commentaries, more than your network version. I like the insight to why some things had to happen the way they did. I look forward to each and every one! Thank you for all the years of arm chair wilderness training! We'll see you out there someday!
I lived in a "haunted" house for 5 years. It forever changed the way I view the world.
What happened
@mariust plz go into detail!!
Les watching Les watching Les is somehow much more.
Never thought I’d see a full 3 way les scene on youtube… but I did… and I liked it.
There are times at work when I work up a sweat, and have to run into the walk in freezer which is near freezing temperatures. Les isn't joking about sweating in that scenario. Anything more than 20 seconds in there is pure agony.
1:58:50
My family owns a house from 1860 on an offshore iceland in Norway.
Every time I am there alone, (spechaly in the augthom and winter), I get this chill nown my spine and the hairs in my neck stand up by them selfs.
I think to myself that I dont beleave in ghosts... leftbrained chemist that I am.
And then I think to myself: Why do you say to yourself that you dont beleave in things every fibre in your body tells you that are real.
Its like I feel the presence of my ansester, and its freaking creepy as hell.
There has been people "surviving" on that property you were at since the viking-age... I beleave you Les!
Survivor GOAT Les Stroud
During the freaky Norwegian house examination and how you described your feelings for the upstairs of that house, it really reminded me of the concept of liminal spaces. Liminal spaces are unsettling spaces, not of conventionally haunted areas like graveyards or rundown mansions, but spaces that exist in everyday life and are familiar, but are incredibly unsettling when someone stops and actually examines it like what you did when surveying the 2nd floor of that house. One other common aspects of these spaces is its emptiness when the it would be stereotypically full of human activity. Another is lighting. Lighting plays a big part in a lot of liminal spaces and those rooms with the super dark hall way gives off some eerie vibes.
Tapped out after 22… I’ll give it another shot some other time. Thanks Lester 🤙🏼
I watch these to help me sleep at night
When the world ends..all that will be left will be cockroaches, chuck norris and Les Stroud.
that Zappa quote is from one of my fave songs! nice reference Les! awesome
Thank you for all that you do. I’ve appreciated you and your videos for a very long time ❤
When I was a kid we went to a ski resort in NE OR state named Tollgate. Three of us hiked into the wilderness using showshoes. When we stopped for the evening I dug a small snow cave in a hill side and the other two made a small igloo-like structure. It was amazing how warm it was inside there. Also how bright with one candle going.
Dude was drunk before the video started. He’s more so when he starts riffing Frank Zappa lyrics.
Looking at the new scenes when preparing mussels gives creeps even during daylight, especially when there is hanging from the celling thing in the background, slightly swinging. Then maybe sitting in silence eating if not recording or talking to camera. Not to mention whole house is creepy af, it doesnt look(atleast on what is provided by camera here) people actually were staying there for more than a day if they could get there by motorboat in less than an hour or could even left it unatended for longer time. Even little details like what looks like a Norwegian flag on the floor in 1:43:24 I mean if it is a flag I dont think any countryman would let that lay on the ground since they love to nail their flag to the walls in the cabins this must've been hung before and laid there for a long time. Nice creepy music or no music in right moments adds to it.
a video showcasing some of the local turkish musicians would be awesome!
I love my Helle Temagmi knife! Seriously, great steel, great shape, and razor sharp!
I love the director commentary so much!!!
This is going to be totally awesome!! Can't hardly wait!! 👀👀
Your commentary is excellent as always. As an amateur cook, I've also been following Wild Harvest and loving the content. Even used some yellow Woodsorrel to some camp dishes recently with some tasty results.
Thanks for always giving me something insightful and interesting to enjoy Les.
Les is one of the few that won his right to drink on camera. Cheers!
Why is it that nobody leaves any food at these remote cabins? Freeze dried, canned, dried, low perishable sealed items. Shelter is great, but shelter with food is much better. Even a .22 for small game would help greatly. You might lose a few bucks of food, but the help to another person would be immense.
I always wondered why he played such creepy music while in the house
Also, at one point while in the house on the 2nd floor he repeatedly said "Only good spirits here"
when i first saw that house of fjord on tv,i instanly sense of some dark present even it is tv screen
Les, you're my favorite.
Just added a tarp to my bug out bag that has a years worth of food and bought vac seal bags to keep everything fresh longer
Yeah men. That part going down that, steep, ice, rugged snow covered mountain side, really got to me. I was once in the middle one, on the snow and ice covered descend.
But I wasn't lost and he'd a jeep waiting for me at the bottom to take me home. I still don't know, how you survived that night, sitting all wet and soaked to the bone in that rock outcropping ? Especially hypothermia being a real ticking bomb. You are one tough Survival Man.
The creepy, eerie feeling was the reaper...he doesn't like to be cheated.
Don't fear the Reaper!
Those foot prints in the snow leading to the cabin with a deer was a nice surprise
Love the Zappa quote;) thanks Les 😊
Aren't those folding pocket stoves a God send !!
Thank you Les,
On your previous version of this video, you did not mention the “good spirits here “ on the second floor.
I asked about it and coincidentally you made a new video to mention it!!
Coïncidence? Perhaps?
But i love you even more - as a friend
Cheers! Keep healthy
Les, i wanna thank you. If it wasn't for you i wouldn't be alive.
@1:27:19 On the note about "Nothing Noble" I think you're selling yourself short Les, any lesser man would've given up and died there on that mountain but no not you why? Because you are THE Survivorman. One of the few people that I look up to. Your teachings and words resonate with me so much still after all these years of watching you.
1:23:11 you hadn’t rewatched it because it was a traumatic moment in your life that was recorded and you didn’t want to see just how close you got to “buying the farm” as they say.
At 1:13:20... That's the scariest thing (at least for me), when you realize you're alone and your brain doesn't work anymore. I wasn't cold like Les was, but too hot. I was sitting on a rock 20 feet from a river with a washrag in my pack. I had packed it specifically for cooling myself off. But I couldn't make my arms and legs work to pull it out and walk that far. "Oh, water, that'll cool me off... man, it's hard to stand up... I need to get my washrag first... for the water over there... oh, water, that'll cool me off..." And I realized I wasn't thinking straight but couldn't seem to stop it.
perhaps Les was primed for a spiritual experience/encounter prefaced by solitude, fasting, heavy physical and emotional strain, and a trudge down a mountain resulting in a deep sense of appreciation just to simply be alive. concluding in a ancient pagan viking settlement. set and setting! "its all in your mind you just dont know how big your mind is"
The us version had that Les I swear to you I watched the processing of the food and cooking and eating it
When Les Jumped like that had me laughing so hard😂!
I can't believe Les didn't take that deer tongue, that's a really good piece of meat. If you're ever in a survival situation you can take the tongue and char it on a fire, then scrape the tougher flesh off of the tongue with a knife. You can also get a good amount of fat from behind the eyes. The jaw meat is really good too! (I am in no way trying to say I know more than Les by any means, I'm just a hunter that's harvested meat from animals I didn't SEE Les harvest, doesn't mean he didn't, just means I didn't see it, and I wanted to offer up a helpful bit of info!)
I love wolves so I'm going to check out Bill Mason's work.
Maybe what you felt was Death itself being upset that you survived the trip down the mountain and dodged all the cliffs and made it into a home. Then Death decided from your humility in asking permission to stay the night that it could leave you be.
Or maybe it was the spirit of someone who fell down those cliffs and died and was angry at how you avoided the same fate despite your overzealousness. But your humility again convinced it to leave you alone.
Much love Les
If the "spirits" left you alone after that then they were good spirits (protective). Obviously a bad spirit wouldn't have
let you get any rest. I had an encounter like that in the Sierra Nevada where on a hot afternoon with no wind suddenly
a cool wind gust came out of nowhere and buffeted me and I started thinking "Indian spirits". I told them the same,
that I meant no harm and the gust quickly died down and there were no more while I was out there.
This and India is when I genuinely feared for your safety
I used to get the creepy ghost feeling a lot as a kid. Walking outside always cured it. I think it's something inherently uncanny about the new "being inside" thing that we, or at least some of us, haven't had time to evolve into yet.
At least when you're outside, you can see everything coming. Inside you can't see anything that might pop up around a corner. When in survival mode, I'd imagine that feeling being intensified.
Didn’t this already come out
i thought i was going crazy for a second haha
There are missing scenes at the end
Remember to always have a good knife if yall want to split wood. I used the same technique les used to split wood with a cheap blade and snaped it a few years ago
Les I’m a big fan. I respect how you do everything the right way and don’t fake anything. But I’m really wondering respectfully, why not have a few small extra precautions for yourself in certain situations? For instance, why not have a spare change of cloths or anything to help on you avoid hypothermia? Why not bring even extra water in the kalahari desert? I respect everything you were doing and accomplished, I just wonder why not have a small small safety net for yourself?
Maybe because you were so close to death the night before, the spirits expected to see you in spiritual form and not still alive.
oooooh... creepy
"layers" I fully expected a commentary for the commentary coming down the pike in a decade or two.
