Life Below Zero first premiered in the year 2013, and ever since then, it has consistently delivered premium content for viewers. If there is any show that is exciting, scary, and heartbreaking at the same time, then it is Life Below Zero. Due to the nature of the environment, it was important for the show producers only to feature those who are capable of surviving the harsh weather and unforeseen circumstances, hence the appearance of Glenn Villeneuve.
Glenn Villeneuve was one of the few cast members of the show that started from its inception before leaving. His departure was indeed a rough one for many of the show’s viewers, who enjoyed his charismatic approach to all tasks. It’s been a few years since he left the show, but what really happened to him? Let’s find out, shall we?
GlennVilleneuve #LifeBelowZero
He was the reason I watched. Loved his narration and easy style. So well spoken for someone with no formal teaching. Much respect to him for standing and LIVING on his principles
do you remember the show when he spoke of driving the boat 100 miles each way and planned on making many trips to get items which he planned to use to fix the house's
foundation
let me know if I got this right?
There's no such thing (anymore) as "formal teaching", it's nothing but a memorization and indoctrination camp.... Glenn is a licensed pilot, married a German opera singer (divorced now, but still friends), he's written a couple books.... He knows far more than anyone graduating from Columbia right now, I can tell you that, it's shocking how absolutely incompetent, damn near everyone is now. Seriously, search here on UA-cam for "GenZ Can't Tell Time", and then pick the video where the guy is asking people questions on the street with a similar title.... "Formal Education" doesn't mean a damn thing anymore....
He was the most interesting and hard core than any of the others. He was legit with no BS.
disagree not to be argumentative. You watch the episode he worked so hard to make a ladder to clean his chimney on his cabin. He spent hours making it because he said he had no other option to get a ladder while in the middle of nowhere. Litrally the next episode he had a 16ft Warner ladder he used to store his meat up on a cache. Im not saying he isnt interesting or smart. Just saying this show has a nartive and discovery makes the cast obide or they are gone. Discovery is known for this.
Glenn’s life style was the best reason I would watch Life Below Zero . I am retired for many years now , and I loved the way he stoked his moose and be successful. I still remember some of my better moose hunts, tracked them and always used the wind direction to my advantage. Those were my years ago in Northwestern Ontario
Glen was the main character in my opinion. I liked all of the original cast, but Glen’s style was the most interesting.
He did one of the BEST shows ever on Joe Rogans Podast. If you have deep respect for Glenn now? Watch that interview and you’ll be blown away by how down to earth and incredibly intelligent he is. He also explains why he’s no longer on the show. Apparently, the producers simply stopped calling him. Not once ever bother to tell him they no longer wanted him back. Whoever the fool was at Discovery Channel who made that decision should have lost his job.
100% , on this video they said " he left " , yet his explanation on JRE , is exactly as you say
I bet it's because the show wanted to manufacture drama, vs. leaving things as to the natural state of nature. Reality shows are seldom real.
HE WAS THE BEST , HE MADE THE SHOW INTERESTING,HE IS VERY HEALTHY LOOKING, INTERESTING PERSON TO WATCH.
I think that JR interview is 3 hours long and I sat through it, and it never felt that long. Just a down to earth dude who I'd love to have a beer with...
No honor, people don’t even get pissed when you cuss them
Glenn was the best they had on the show. He knew what it took to survive where most would fail he thrives.
Glenn is the real deal, I personally quit watching when they stopped filming with him.
THis guy was the biggest phoney!!! He lived with electricity plumbing buying food from safeway in fairbanks the majority of the year .. He only spent weekends and vacations in his shack in chandalar... GOOD RIDDENS
Hahahahahaha he was such a phony, faking falls and "injuries" for tv, loser.
I stopped watching it too!
@@lorilove4706trtrdflc8
Yeah, people want the real deal. I can't tell you how many people want to watch history shows, but History Channel charges so much. Can't wait til a new channel gives us these experiences and regular people can watch these awesome experiences. People must choose food before astronomical prices per month for the history channel.
I believe I read an interview from Glenn.. he said that he wanted to show people actual methods for survival ..BUT LBZ.. only wanted action & sensational footage.. even if it had to be staged! Glen refused Glen just wanted to do a truthful rendition of his life and survival skills.. apparently LBZ.. dumped him.. it's their loss good luck to Glenn.. he seems like an amazing person that has taught us a lot on that show..
Glenn was one of the best on the show. It would be nice to see him in his own wildlife production on Discovery
Glenn understood survival, natures moods, and as far sa I can see. Possesed integrity .
I wish they would bring him back he was a wonderful addition to Life Below Zero.
We sure do miss Glen!!! He was awesome and we learned so much from him. What is wrong with the producers of the show? Maybe they need to retire and keep Glen!!!!
IM SO SORRY THIS PROGRAM HAS BEEN DISBANDED BECAUSE I LOVED ALL ITS PEOPLE ITS A SHAME SUCH A GREAT SHOW LIFE BELOW ZERO!
Glenn made the show and I don't know or care why he left. Its his business but I am glad to hear he is doing well. Maybe he should write a
book of his life OR about his survival skills.
I wish Glenn would write a book. I'd read it and others would too.
This guy was great on the show. Happy to hear he’s still alive and well.
All things have an end. Never think of your corporate employers as nice people that you can trust, or that they will treat you with respect as you treat (hopefully) other people. Corporations are never your friends. It's just business to them and it will always be so.

He was a far too pure positive spirit to continue being broadcast on the tube. Glen is the polar opposite of the narrative and agenda of television programming. Indeed a truly fascinating individual.
whenever people focus so much on who has what agenda rather than looking at the facts and what is going on in the real world, i know right away not to take anything they say seriously hahahaha
Glenn has said the problem was the producers wanted to dictate what he did on film, which was mainly gathering wood and hunting. They didn't care for his walkabouts and hikes that had no purpose other than to explore.
Glenn was the main reason I watched life below zero. Eric Saletan was another.
This.
@@SirTheoTheWhite that
Glen explained his division from Life Below Zero producers during his interview with Joe Rogan. The producers want artificially created drama around his encampment, while Glen prefered the reality of spending the day walking to a nearby mountain. These issues kept resurfacing until producers were disappointed they didn't get thier own way of scripted TV.
actually no, not sure how you pulled that out of his interview with Joe, Glenn literally said, and i quote, "they just wanted me to cut down trees all day and i wanted to go on adventures and explore things" but in the end the producers wanted to see more of what the first nations people were doing and were disinterested in a privileged white guy who was just trying to escape the responsibilities of life and avoid providing for his family.
@@antcap1519Is that what you really think? He has wanted to live off the land since he was a young boy, which carries way more responsibility than going to school. He learned how to fly an airplane, he learned how to survive in the wilderness. You think he's a privileged white male who has no responsibility? He's the opposite of that, he has way more responsibility than most other people, he has acquired a vast amount of knowledge and learned many more skills than most people will ever do or have. And to top that off, he's a very likable person, unlike a vast majority of people who make comments on UA-cam
@@Ledzepnut sorry that my comment offended you so much, but he said all of it himself, i basically quoted him directly from his interviews and based my comment off of that.
Absolutely loved Glenn and all the episodes with him. He was and is the best. Producer's always seem to ditch our favorites, Idiot's!
I read a comment years ago by someone who complained to be production staff on one of these shows. He said a lot of stuff gets filmed multiple times, or the person is willing to do something “fake” to make what the producers consider better, more dramatic tv. He said usually there will be one person who won’t play along as much or at all, and despite what the producers expect this person tends to become a fan favorite.
Great guy
As for most of us, he was the most interesting in the series,
I only watched the show because of glen. Maybe someday glen could have his own show or UA-cam channel and continue his survival adventure.
Glenn taught you alot he was one of the reasons I watched the show how sad the way they treated him Sue is gone too oh no its overShe was so entertaining hard as nails she could fix anything she was good
Miss seeing him too... Didn't realize they had basically dumped him...what jerks!
IMHO Glenn was the top person on the show. He pushed the envelope And had the best rifle ! His caliber choice could have been more interesting. But he got it done !
He was my favorite, and when he left the show, so did I.
The guy also has a you tube channel but never uploads to it. I wish he did because I'd watch that all day every day.
❤
He’s the best. Show wasn’t the same after he left. I’ve seen him and his van a few times here in Fairbanks. And I think about him everytime I’m at work (I work in the brooks mountains)
Great hunting skills! Hunting for your food is a top priority for most! I have hunted since I was 16 years old and continued to hunt untill I was 64 years old,due to knee problems!
I'd watch a show based entirely on Glenn, best part of the show.
He is my hero. What a life of true knowledge and achievement
I like Glenn he's got a lot of knowledge I wish they'd put them back on the show and make a New Life below zero
Best of luck to you. You were very interesting to watch. You will be missed
Glen will be just fine… it’s their lost!!😊
i loved watching him on the show, we want him back😅
From a fellow Upper New England native: I miss Glenn and his offerings of authenticity and genuine love for subsistence living in beautiful Alaska. Only Glenn and the network know the reason(s) why he was eliminated from the show. Perhaps the network will come clean and provide fans with an honest answer. Meanwhile, I wish Glenn and his family all the best with continued passionate living in Alaska. ❤
I was always looking for him. He was a true survivor
It may have been just a rumor but it was alluded to, at the time he left, that the reason he was off the show 'Life Below Zero' is because he had been arrested for failure to pay his court ordered child support that was due his first wife. When he returned to living in the wild, the producers felt that his legal problems would not be good for the shows ratings, so decided against his further participation.
If true, then I find it a shame because I was really amazed at the depth of his survival knowledge and skills and would have liked to see him continue on with the show.
The producers at life below zero f@#$ed up when they dropped glenn! Blew it!
Since he left I don't watch the show any longer. Glenn was the best one on the show.
Love this show.
BEST person on that show!
It us interesting to me that he was so popular, when he came on I usually left the room. I got so tired of him saying "you could die".
I love Glen and his family ❤👍
he was the king. no one else ever came even close.
Nomad/nomadic is literally not what Glenn is, even if he may have used the word himself. He is a hunter-gatherer with a permanent location for his home.
They couldn't get a film crew that could keep up with him.
Glenn and Andy were by far the best ppl on the show. The rest were of various degrees ranging from "not that interesting" to "why are they on the show?". Hailstones - not that interesting. Sue - illusions of grandeur, etc etc etc. Dog racing guy - didn't I see him last week living in a box a few feet off the 405?
My favorite dude flying solo, dragging lumber, no skidoo, no dog train what a badass!
SHAME ON YOU BBC FOR SACKING HIM! Glen do your own show production get in investors im sure us fans could go fund you
It wasnt BBC it was Discovery channel, an American company. American shows are notorious for pushing a narrative instead of providing real information. This is why my country (USA) is in decline. Glenn was too pure for them.
Bring Glenn back !
He was true the topic of survival!
I think Glenn was the most skilled survivalist on that show. I believe he would have an excellent chance of winning Alone if he competed on that show.
He flew off a mountain to his lake below. Enough said!
Not surprised the station would just drop him when they are no longer interested. It’s what they do, I would just expect it eventually.
I gotta say, Glen was my favorite too. Is the show still on? I quit watching it a while back. Not because they got rid of Glen but because they started bringing in some real jokers. It got boring for me
I quit watching after he left. 😢 BOOOOO on them!
Second only to Bob Hart, from The Last Alaskans
Well done glen I live in New Zealand on the westcoast of south island I call it my Alaska love being in Bush cheers mate
He only lived there for 6 months out of the year. The rest of the time he lived in one of the cities. My favorite Alaskan show by far was the "Last Alaskans". I don't think they're in production any longer though. And unfortunately I haven't found them on any streaming service. Most of these reality shows only last a few years as they kinda "get old" with hype. I don't really watch them anymore.
Where did you get information that Glenn lived in cities half the year?
I saw him a couple months ago selling distressed real estate in Peoria, IL.
I stopped watching the show TOO when he left. Other's as well. That's a hell of a way to treat people. SCREW THEM
Toujours aussi admirative ❤
The show needs glen to keep it fresh they need to get him back
Why doesn’t another network pick him up and give him his own show maybe add guest survivors
I as well liked this guy the most,why doesn’t glen do a podcast,he wold have many subscribers?
Life below zero is my favourite program discovery channel is my favourite
He should have his own show or atleast his own UA-cam channel
Didn't much care for LBZ after Glen was erased from the program. He was most definitely interesting.
He was the only real hunter on the show.
Glenn was born August 18, 1969. 1969 was a good year😂❤ at 1:20.
If he had his own show I’d be all over it, I don’t watch life below anymore
I seen a episode of him paragliding off a mountain. I cant find it anywhere now
I’m a pilot and just moved to Fairbanks. I’m a wanna be Glen lol
Now they have people on the show owning man lifts, dozer, skid steer and that's only 1 guy wife 2 kids beautiful home. It must be rougher for them than it was for Glenn
One of my favorite shows Andy moved back to Florida after his accident Sue sued the show after she was injured shooting a scene that they insisted she do and Chip was taken off the show after he filed a false report and did time in jail!!
Only reason I watched show 😊
He was my fav and the reason I watched the show. Dont watch it anymore.
I stopped watching the show when they stopped featuring Glenn!
i am a glenn fan but he obviously was not cut for no reason. he made ratings so lets be realistic about the stations decision.
BBC studios could not force him to obey "This is what you shall THINK today".
Wouldn't want the BBC to promote skills to survive anymore. Don't forget this was 2019.
GLEN I LOVE YOUR SURVIVAL TECHNICS AND I SEE ALOT OF MYSELF IN YOU . YOUR STRONG WILLED AND CAN SURVIVE ANYTHING LIFE THROWS AT YOU!
JUST REMEMBER WE ARE "NOT" WITHOUT GOD. AS HE HAS GIVEN US THIS OPPORTUNITY TO COMUNE W NATURE.
P.S. JESUS IS OUR SAVIOR ❤🙏
Glenn Villeneuve is the best.
Of course Glenn is still doing well. He’s Glenn V. He knows how to survive.
He was the only REAL survivor on that show. He respected the environment. However, I hardly believe that he taught himself to read and write growing up in Burlington, VT. As a New Englander, that seems very unlikely. He's a survival star in my eyes. He didn't rape the land like the others.
He was let go to clear the way for a level playing field of D E and I.
Why take forever to get to the point? We already know who he is and about the show. Waste my time.
Once it becomes reality TV with scripted bs I'm done. The last alskans was my personal favorite. Bob and Charlie jagow his family, and heimo korth
The show dropped Glenn and I dropped the show
Never cared for Glen. I thought it was unnecessary for him to appear naked so often. Don’t like Andy either. He was abusive to his wife. His current girlfriend follows him like a puppy. Ugh
I like him ,he don’t use any motorize vihicle,how come he is gone?
Glenn was the best one on the show.
I miss Gleen and his family.
I really enjoyed when Glen was on life below zero now it’s kind of boring and good thing that the Hailstones are there and Ricko teaching his kids how to hunt
Because they’re very inconsiderate they should have him back on the show !!!!
I cringed every time the narrator said "nomadic lifestyle". Glenn lives a SUBSISTENCE lifestyle.
all of that video just to tell us you don't know. thanks
Happy birthday Glen.
I stop watching this show...when he burned down someone's hunting cabin and stole the woodstove...he even took all their cut and split wood and loaded it in on the floor... cant imagine those poor hunters lugging all their gear that deep into the woods only to find it burned down by this jerk..
Asked to remove the abandoned cabin by the Alaskan government and allowed to take what he wanted.
I think they didn't know what to do with him having a family
