This was fun! There’s so many things happening in the world we who live in our ruts don’t see that it’s nice to live vicariously. I wonder the percentage of people who get caught?
As soon as jt said something about how smart hunter was my mind immediately went to the moment hunter was ghost riding his bus and fell off and got it stuck 🤣
E & E (Escape and Evade) in the military taught me alot on how to not be a victim of circumstance and always have a plan B in case something gets caught sideway. Night escapes/evades were always the most dangerous without knowing terrain, what animals were in the bush and what type of people you captors are. It's like a game of chess out thinking your opponent by staying ahead of the game one step at a time. I've been both the aggressor in capturing an opponent and being the one that escapes and evading the enemy. Working in 2 man teams is harder, because someone is going to be difficult and stubborn and not listen to the words of experience. What you guys did here is good and you'll never forget that experience ! You brought back a lot of memories to this veteran. Thanks & Respect !
Great stuff fellas! This is something everyone should experience.. most veterans, myself included have had some sort of this kind of training and it is a handy tool to have for life in and out of the military. Good job!
I really enjoyed watching this Dave and the fact that you talked us through what was happening and what you were thinking as well. I also thought it was good that you learnt to be present in the moment. Im happy you all made it through. Great vlog with your honest feedback
Makes me wish I was 30 years younger so I could participate in something like this!!! We used to do man hunts on horseback when I was a teenager (many years ago) & there was lots of undeveloped land around. We were sometimes out for 3 days- one group hunters, one group hunted. You don't hear much about this kind of life lessons these days. Another trip down memory lane. Thank you guys for taking us along. Again! Love to all.
@@iremfrat7771 Hi! We were teenagers and made a survival game out of it. Split up as "cops & robbers" or "cowboys and Indians" or what ever two part groups we could conjure up. One group would take off, the other would wait about half an hour & the game was on. We'd raid each other's camps and steal each other's horses.... There was no end to what a bunch of horse loving teens could dream up. We once even chased a real bad guy! He got caught bothering a kid in the park restroom & took off on foot across country. We kind of flushed him out of the woods for the Sheriff. Wonderful days and wonderful memories! Have a great day!
Good stuff! Army combat veteran here, Iraq 06-07. Every American should go through some sort of survival training. The American people need to become strong and learn to work together to accomplish a task or mission. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
You have the Leadership others would have to hire in order to start a business like this. Why be hired? Start your own. This is like you said an important skill we need to have instilled in us. Especially these days and times we are in. Good Luck! 👍
This brings back a sense of nostalgia. Being an Air Force Vet who was fortunate enough to have been selected into the Pipeline program; completing it, and an honor it was to have my MOS as a PJ during my career. Enough cannot be said about the S.E.R.E. program alone, along with the core training principles and tactics you’re taught in the field. The instructors were nothing shy of stellar and deserve the utmost respect for their educational knowledge and perspective in all aspects of training as a PJ, entails. This upload hits home for me personally. And really, makes me miss it quite a bit, reminiscent of passed times. The Pipeline was often brutal and rigorous throughout, but I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. The outcome was immensely worth it 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
I thrived off training like this. Ranger school train up, Sapper Leader, SFAS. I have fellow soldier/friends still with the teams. I've went (31yo) got hurt but sent many after. I've live and walked among giants. You have to love the way it sucks and that if it doesn't get close to that type of suck, it's nothing to us. I've been the team leader, squad leader, patrol leader, assistant patrol leader and the regular Joe. Now, if I don't want to be found, I will get lost and survive. Nick name as a kid was "Rambo". I remember being cold and wet changing into dry clothing, resting for a bit and as soon as the sun came up, we get hit by enemy indirect fire and had to run 200m through a creek so dry and comfortable was short lived. 👍🏽 Good Times 😁
This was amazing to watch. I saw the love and respect of JT. He was impressed with the outcome of the leadership in the group and had some humbling words to each and everyone of your team.
It's an amazing thing as a human being to be able to put yourself in environment that you're not accustomed to and come out the other end with more knowledge and understanding of yourself as a person
I would actually like to do a program like this sometime. I’m trying to get a business going and having good lessons on leadership would be awesome to have.
I’ve done this whilst serving in the armed forces. We had the SAS Hunting us and a dog unit. It was one of the best experiences in my life. We were also put through some torture training. It was scary but once in a life time opportunity. Personnel possessions is a big no no as the Enemy can use that to find a weak spot and get you to give up your top secrets.
@@Paulscnccreations Jungle Survival Training in Central/South America with the Army was the worse I had in the 90s. Throw you in a room blindfolded with about 20 others. Make you take off your socks and boots. Thrown them in a pile and you have about 10 seconds to try to grab two boots and socks. Some boots had laces removed. Hopefully you get a left and right or the person you paired up with has the opposite. Still wearing the blindfold put on helicopters. You were teamed up with one other person. Drop off after about 1 hour flight in the jungle. Only things you had between you were a one canteen and a small knife. Told you had to get back to base in 48 hours. I will take desert, mountain, and water survival training over the jungle any day of the week.
@@jaytrock3217 dang, I would take the jungle over the cold but the jungle dose have high humidity tho witch FL has as well. So the jungle wouldn't be much different then home.
This would be awesome for our group activity at work. Doing home health and hospice we walk into some hinky situations at times. We talk at our morning safety huddles about managing bad situations, but this would give a whole new level of awareness. Some of our nurses are so timid, there have been times when I actually took patients that were questionable, to sort of protect another nurse that wouldn't be able to handle, or be aware of potential danger. This is cool, hope this is something anyone can do.
What a great program! As a two time cancer survivor breast and lung I would love to try to see if I could survive a program like that sounds like another challenge to beat.
I'm a little late to this video but the words from the instructor about you guys at the end made me cry like a little baby. What a sweet man and great leader to mirror your strengths back to you in such an eloquent way.
You guys did FANTASTIC. Please start a program where us "normal folks " can do this too!! I've always wanted to see if I had what it takes to escape something like this. ❤❤
Looks like a crazy cool experience...while hectic at the same time. Definitely looks like a lot of fun. .... I wanted to update and add a thank you to heavy d and crew for sharing the information about hone health. Looking forward to seeing the results.. been needing something like this to help keep up my health and maybe improve upon it .. anyway ty ...
A line from my Squad Leader I'll never forget when we were in a suck training situation, we were all sleeping on the sand getting bitten by fire ants and swarmed by mosquitoes, and he says: "Just think guys, people pay money to do this type of thing, and we get matching clothes." Talk about getting quite a few chuckles out of us when we otherwise were miserable.
When he said breakfast, I remembered how he said not to trust anyone, and I figured the breakfast was staged and they were going to get drugged and dragged back up the mountain. Wasted opportunity.
This was a really good video! I can imagine this was not an easy video on the production side. There was an awesome story, and it had very good flow. 10/10 production quality!
This was a different and interesting upload. Its like an adult version of hide and go seek. You guys should go out and help them search for people. Would love to see that aspect.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍👍❤ very cool!!
Dude I can’t tell you what your videos mean to me. I get so pumped every time I see you dropped a new video. Thank you for all you do Dave and the rest of the crew.
Man this is a neat video. I seriously enjoy the variety of quality content that you guys release 👌🏼 another recovery video soon though…? 😬 also, being present is certainly important!
All of you did great! Dave I was worried about you being so hungry but you handled it well but I bet you had a big breakfast lol. All of you are doing great and my wife and I enjoy watching all you all do!!
Sorry I meant my husband and I watch you all. Hey if you guys pray,my husband was diagnosed with end stage renal failure in April and he is failing fast. We just celebrated 45 years of marriage plus we were high school sweetheart's. I have had a rare form of cancer since our 2nd year of marriage and he has taken care of me through every surgery and times of chemo. We are soul mates and I will be by his side until the end. Thanks,
I love these videos. Heavy D will say stuff along the lines of” just showing some of my everyday work/life things” but then also gets hunted in the woods!
My fiance is in the military, and everything Cole said about teamwork, leadership, everything is so true. You never leave a man behind. All of you guys did an amazing job! Proud of all of you
Very Very interesting. I can't imagine what ran through everyone's mind. When you did the belly crawl my heart was racing in fear of being captured. Great show!
G,day boys, l have spent 18,years in the Australian Army, it really make you think outside the box when your challenged like that and you can only rely on you whit, great show, cheers, Neil 🤠.
Loved that and it’s really made me want to do something like it, to help me develop who I am and find my strengths and weaknesses. Thank you guys for yet another awesome video
I know this was a year ago but I think this is one of my favorites so far. Mind you I’ve only been watching you for a couple of months. Thank you for these shows.😅❤
Once again you guy’s knocked it out of the park! Great to see people come together as a group or brothers to succeed in a kind of shitty 24 hrs, and cole having the insight to think about what our brothers and sisters in the armed forces go through every day. Good for you sir! Great video.
This was impressive. Big respect for you guys. Good job on the program and yes please set it up and more content on it. This stuff is needed for alot of people to open they're eyes. Great video
I’m a little behind on this channel but this was one of my favorites I pretty much binge on Heavy D Sparks channel trying to catch up fast. I’m a 50-year-old father of five all grown up. And with the grace of God, none of my kids ended up in jail on drugs, so far youngest, one being 20 oldest one being 32. Unlike myself, I struggled a lot when I was young and I just want Dave and his crew to know that I take a lot from his shows, one of the best teachers I’ve ever seen because I do a lot of similar things and I had my kids involved the entire time. I can’t say enough about how much I respect all of you for this particular video. coming from a military family and doing things with my kids differently than my father did I had to learn a lot of stuff that was taught in this video and thank God my kids are doing well, I love your show. Sorry for the punctuation. My hands don’t work very well anymore. God bless.
Just watched it nice job I laughed my A#@ off at DD When he just stepped off the road 6" lmao hidden. Iam surprised Heavy D you didn't put mud on your face to be more camouflaged . Enjoyed it guys nice job.
I would LOVE that experience! Anything adventurous and suspenseful involving back country is a thrill! Some folks just dont know what they are missing by never stepping foot out of their comfort zone!
Heavy..D.. guys awesome video and definitely outside the box loved it also to see the leadership change hands just to see what choices everyone would make was really cool, interesting,and just a really neat experience!!!!
What a great vlog! It was definitely different but so cool to watch what you all had to go through and what you got out of it!! Always be present! Life is too short!!
If it would have been in West Virginia in middle of night you would have heard dueling banjos. Then you have to worry about the animals eating you it's the local having their way with you.
I was learning to be a S.E.R.E.R (Survival, Evasion, Resistance, Escape and Return with Honor) and I can tell you, you begin to reach your limits, exceed your limits and you end up learning a great deal about your capabilities and yourself. Amazing program. Loved the video and very glad you got to experience it.
This is something I need to do. I'm at a cross road in my life and I think this will push me to be the best dad and man I can be. Thank you for all you guys do to be the best you can be with some cool content alone the way.
I love how you guys are constantly doing different and new things. Most UA-cam channels regurgitate the same content over and over again. I can honestly say that this channel is the one channel that I will stop whatever I’m doing to watch the upload. Keep doing awesome things and even though this channel is already big, I know it’s gonna keep growing into something special
I LOVE THIS! So very often “Self-Recovery” is overlooked. As a boss, parent, life partner, leader, you think to only have concerns for those around you, forgetting three major components, putting yourself in their shoes, if you fall, who will lead, and being in the moment always…. Which is hard for me as a wife, mother, and wanting to always please those around me. But I’m a bit twisted, I’m a control freak due to things in my past, but also thrive on barley contained chaos (It’s my severe ADHD lol). So these are lessons I preach to myself daily. I was also a L.A.R.P. For a military defense training company for a few years, so I’ve been in similar live action settings, and love thinking outside of the box. So I got a kick out of seeing these guys going through this, and how they problem solved their way out of it. So awesome and thank you for sharing!
Reminded me of teaching SAR training, had to be the "victim" and our job was to hide from the search crews until they were within about 15 ft away. Also reminds me of pulling op4 in the army. The adrenalin they must have felt mist have been massive!
Really ? You taught SAR'S , and this video reminded you of it ?! Well I did SARS / EE training with my unit in the FRG , and at the 7th Army NCO Academy Bad Toelz taught by some 10th SF guys . Then did RVN training , EE and captive/ hostage training before deploying . Then EE / survival and again captive / hostage after I got I.C. by my 1st unit 25th I.D. This was crap !! I truly hope nobody watches this and " thinks " they have learned anything about EE !!! doc Gubs recon / blue / leg . 68-71
@@indycharlie wasn't saying it is a perfect situation or perfectly done. You have to take into account the people that have never been around anything like this. I took people off the street never around sar and in a week got them to the point of being able to effectively work as a team and find a patient in the state park with no assistance or guidance. Considering this is 24 hours it's not horrible.
@@scottfritz6645 OK . I just hope everybody understands . This video has nothing of value , relating to a real EE situation . With drones overhead , that shows it was staged , and ridiculous . Have a good one brother .... Gubs.
I love watching all y'all videos but I gotta say,this was fun. It had me drawn in & all pumped up & nervous about y'all being caught 🙈 Great vid guys✌️🏴
this was pretty awesome, i love seeing yall try new things. And yall really show that you can accomplish anything as long as you have the right mindset. I can't wait to see what else you guys do. keep up the awesome work!
Thirty some years ago four of us guy's decided to split up in the Gulch. We split and saw the things we wanted and began looking for the other two. We walked maybe a quarter mile and it was rough going. We took a short break and I told Dave we could stomp this ground for weeks and not find the other two. Dave said wait and he was sniffing the air, he said can you smell that and I walked over to him. I sniffed the air and I said that's a dead give away. We all four were carrying rifles and we walked right up to them smelling Hopies # 9 rifle solvent. It was fun because we ambushed them while they were laying a trap for us. Hard to find that many friends that play the same game!
Great lessons and even better content, Sparks! The thought of living in town, commuting back and forth to work and home with family, it is very remarkable that I don't think about survival let alone understand all the facets of having to survive. My sons and I love the hunt and living in the mountains for several days, but to evade capture is on a completely different level.
I was going to watch a few minutes of this video then finish editing my video. After a few minutes, I closed down the editor and watched the rest of your video. This was so much fun! I learned a lot too. Great job guys!!
HeavyDSparks, this was a great video for entertainment! Exciting! Love the concept. Equally, the leadership taught through the survival challenge was excellent. It allowed each member to reflect on how hard it is to lead, and also shows the followers how hard it is to be a leader and decision maker. That's a great takeaway! When you load the team on the bus, and place the team in the right seats, the bus will drive itself! Best, Tim
Awesome video , reminds me of the times we did tactical escape & evade during our tactical maneuvers whilst I was enlisted in the Canadian Armed Forces ( RCEME Corps ). During these maneuvers you learn a lot about yourself and of the elements. I'm a lot older now and disabled on oxygen , but I sure was chompin at the bit and shifting in my chair watching you lads going through the paces. Be well .. keep smiling .. catch ya on the flip side .. Cheers.
This is what the world needs is more of a team effort in good outcomes none of the negative stuff we need and I digress need more positive lives treat everyone with respect and love
I'm 50 and my husband 54 we're both retired with over $3 million in net worth and no debt's. Currently living smart and frugal with our money. Saving and investing life style in the stock market made it possible for us this early even till now we earn weekly. Thanks to fire movement.
most economists expect the unemployment rate - which counts how many people are able to work and want a job, but can't find one - to rise this year. And the government haven't said anything regarding the pandemic in Washington.😫
@Jeo williams Fire means Financial Independence Retire Early. It's been a movement teaching people financial independence and how to and how to retire debt free through solid investment and frugal lifestyle.
@@morphyharris1093 I can share some that helped me. 1: plan towards it. 2: be frugal and minimal on spending. 3: spend your money on Investment. 4: choose your trade analys wisely. 5: Invest with a professional trader like Mr. Terrence Rodgers my trade analys.
Watching this brought back memories from my years in the Army. When I enlisted, I had some small things I thought I could do, by the time I got out, I knew I could do anything I needed to. Great job, I'm looking forward to seeing more.
This was a very good episode! Very outside the box. It still was a lot of work, no food, no sleep, being cold. And a mental mind game! So interesting. Loved it💕
Love the personal challenge all of you voluntarily accepted and the scenario was obviously very intense! A worst case nightmare situation! Great video, very entertaining and very informative. It definitely makes you think... Loved it outstanding job!!!

I love these videos. Heavy D will say stuff along the lines of” just showing some of my everyday work/life things” but then also gets hunted in the woods!
My fiance is in the military, and everything Cole said about teamwork, leadership, everything is so true. You never leave a man behind. All of you guys did an amazing job! Proud of all of you
Very Very interesting. I can't imagine what ran through everyone's mind. When you did the belly crawl my heart was racing in fear of being captured. Great show!
Diesel Dave please chant “Nerds, nerds, nerds, nerds.” 😆🍻🇺🇸🤙🏻
G,day boys, l have spent 18,years in the Australian Army, it really make you think outside the box when your challenged like that and you can only rely on you whit, great show, cheers, Neil 🤠.

Loved that and it’s really made me want to do something like it, to help me develop who I am and find my strengths and weaknesses.
Thank you guys for yet another awesome video
@P!nned by HeavyDSpark do you ship your subscription boxes to the uk at all?
This was one of your best videos. Every American should do this. You guys have an amazing idea here.
I know this was a year ago but I think this is one of my favorites so far. Mind you I’ve only been watching you for a couple of months. Thank you for these shows.😅❤
This was different but still fun to watch. SERE Training is a great skill to posses.
definitely makes their bootyholes loose though
Once again you guy’s knocked it out of the park! Great to see people come together as a group or brothers to succeed in a kind of shitty 24 hrs, and cole having the insight to think about what our brothers and sisters in the armed forces go through every day. Good for you sir! Great video.
This was impressive. Big respect for you guys. Good job on the program and yes please set it up and more content on it. This stuff is needed for alot of people to open they're eyes. Great video
You never know what you can accomplish or achieve until you try. The old saying," that which doesn't kill you makes you stronger", is so true.
Really like your videos ❤
I’m a little behind on this channel but this was one of my favorites I pretty much binge on Heavy D Sparks channel trying to catch up fast. I’m a 50-year-old father of five all grown up. And with the grace of God, none of my kids ended up in jail on drugs, so far youngest, one being 20 oldest one being 32. Unlike myself, I struggled a lot when I was young and I just want Dave and his crew to know that I take a lot from his shows, one of the best teachers I’ve ever seen because I do a lot of similar things and I had my kids involved the entire time. I can’t say enough about how much I respect all of you for this particular video. coming from a military family and doing things with my kids differently than my father did I had to learn a lot of stuff that was taught in this video and thank God my kids are doing well, I love your show. Sorry for the punctuation. My hands don’t work very well anymore. God bless.
Just watched it nice job I laughed my A#@ off at DD When he just stepped off the road 6" lmao hidden. Iam surprised Heavy D you didn't put mud on your face to be more camouflaged . Enjoyed it guys nice job.
I would LOVE that experience! Anything adventurous and suspenseful involving back country is a thrill! Some folks just dont know what they are missing by never stepping foot out of their comfort zone!
It's awesome
I guess we all need to learn some shit on these types of possibilities in the near future with the way the Country is going! Love your videos!
if you are just now starting to learn survival skills you have missed the boat
Heavy..D.. guys awesome video and definitely outside the box loved it also to see the leadership change hands just to see what choices everyone would make was really cool, interesting,and just a really neat experience!!!!
THIS MAKES THE REST OF YOUR GOOD VIDEOS MORE UNBELIEVABLE
What a great vlog! It was definitely different but so cool to watch what you all had to go through and what you got out of it!! Always be present! Life is too short!!
What an excellent vlog, brought back memories of military excersises...he who dares lives...
Just alittle SERE training to start your day...
Slippery slope here boys , it looks like fun till the real crazies out there set out to do this , but in real terms!!
I've never seen one of the "crazies" you speak of, where can we find some of them?
@@jerryb1234 me either, but sure as you breathe there out there!!
If it would have been in West Virginia in middle of night you would have heard dueling banjos. Then you have to worry about the animals eating you it's the local having their way with you.
I was learning to be a S.E.R.E.R (Survival, Evasion, Resistance, Escape and Return with Honor) and I can tell you, you begin to reach your limits, exceed your limits and you end up learning a great deal about your capabilities and yourself. Amazing program. Loved the video and very glad you got to experience it.
THE ABSOLUTE BEST GUYS IM ADDICTED TOO UR CHANNELS BACK TO BACK 3DAYS NOTHEN ELSE BUT WATCHEN ALL OVE U GUYS
This is something I need to do. I'm at a cross road in my life and I think this will push me to be the best dad and man I can be. Thank you for all you guys do to be the best you can be with some cool content alone the way.

Hello are you doing
This looked like so much fun. Great video guy.
I love how you guys are constantly doing different and new things. Most UA-cam channels regurgitate the same content over and over again. I can honestly say that this channel is the one channel that I will stop whatever I’m doing to watch the upload. Keep doing awesome things and even though this channel is already big, I know it’s gonna keep growing into something special
My family is from the Adirondack Mountains. I miss it. Be kind to one another. Stay safe. Love to all
I LOVE THIS! So very often “Self-Recovery” is overlooked. As a boss, parent, life partner, leader, you think to only have concerns for those around you, forgetting three major components, putting yourself in their shoes, if you fall, who will lead, and being in the moment always…. Which is hard for me as a wife, mother, and wanting to always please those around me. But I’m a bit twisted, I’m a control freak due to things in my past, but also thrive on barley contained chaos (It’s my severe ADHD lol). So these are lessons I preach to myself daily. I was also a L.A.R.P. For a military defense training company for a few years, so I’ve been in similar live action settings, and love thinking outside of the box. So I got a kick out of seeing these guys going through this, and how they problem solved their way out of it. So awesome and thank you for sharing!
TEXT-ME 🔝
THANKS-FOR-WATCHING.
This video was awesome! I'd totally be down to go thru any kind of training like that!
Reminded me of teaching SAR training, had to be the "victim" and our job was to hide from the search crews until they were within about 15 ft away. Also reminds me of pulling op4 in the army. The adrenalin they must have felt mist have been massive!
Hello are you doing
Really ? You taught SAR'S , and this video reminded you of it ?! Well I did SARS / EE training with my unit in the FRG , and at the 7th Army NCO Academy Bad Toelz taught by some 10th SF guys . Then did RVN training , EE and captive/ hostage training before deploying . Then EE / survival and again captive / hostage after I got I.C. by my 1st unit 25th I.D. This was crap !! I truly hope nobody watches this and " thinks " they have learned anything about EE !!! doc Gubs recon / blue / leg . 68-71
@@indycharlie wasn't saying it is a perfect situation or perfectly done. You have to take into account the people that have never been around anything like this. I took people off the street never around sar and in a week got them to the point of being able to effectively work as a team and find a patient in the state park with no assistance or guidance. Considering this is 24 hours it's not horrible.
@@scottfritz6645 OK . I just hope everybody understands . This video has nothing of value , relating to a real EE situation . With drones overhead , that shows it was staged , and ridiculous . Have a good one brother .... Gubs.
I kept thinking your guide was going to lead you right into enemy hands after he told you to NEVER trust anyone.
I actually loved this video! This is something that literally everyone should learn just in case the situation actually happened.
I love watching all y'all videos but I gotta say,this was fun. It had me drawn in & all pumped up & nervous about y'all being caught 🙈
Great vid guys✌️🏴
How freaking awesome was that bro! You guys have such a great time and I’m so jealous of all your fun! Keep them coming brother and you all be safe!
Thanks~~~~
this was pretty awesome, i love seeing yall try new things. And yall really show that you can accomplish anything as long as you have the right mindset. I can't wait to see what else you guys do. keep up the awesome work!
Are you married
Wow I wish I was young enough to be hunted again. It's awesome to feel that rush when you evade them!
Thirty some years ago four of us guy's decided to split up in the Gulch. We split and saw the things we wanted and began looking for the other two. We walked maybe a quarter mile and it was rough going. We took a short break and I told Dave we could stomp this ground for weeks and not find the other two. Dave said wait and he was sniffing the air, he said can you smell that and I walked over to him. I sniffed the air and I said that's a dead give away. We all four were carrying rifles and we walked right up to them smelling Hopies # 9 rifle solvent. It was fun because we ambushed them while they were laying a trap for us. Hard to find that many friends that play the same game!
Loved it. And then the night searchers came out. And we partyed for an hour!! I loved it. Hunter had to be carried across!!!

This is the best stuff you guys ever done I love this
Great lessons and even better content, Sparks! The thought of living in town, commuting back and forth to work and home with family, it is very remarkable that I don't think about survival let alone understand all the facets of having to survive. My sons and I love the hunt and living in the mountains for several days, but to evade capture is on a completely different level.
Thanks~~~~
Dudes, what an awesome business opportunity to set up in your areas. Can you imagine?
I was going to watch a few minutes of this video then finish editing my video. After a few minutes, I closed down the editor and watched the rest of your video. This was so much fun! I learned a lot too. Great job guys!!
Are you married
HeavyDSparks, this was a great video for entertainment! Exciting! Love the concept. Equally, the leadership taught through the survival challenge was excellent. It allowed each member to reflect on how hard it is to lead, and also shows the followers how hard it is to be a leader and decision maker. That's a great takeaway! When you load the team on the bus, and place the team in the right seats, the bus will drive itself! Best, Tim
Awesome video , reminds me of the times we did tactical escape & evade during our tactical maneuvers whilst I was enlisted in the Canadian Armed Forces ( RCEME Corps ). During these maneuvers you learn a lot about yourself and
of the elements.
I'm a lot older now and disabled on oxygen , but I sure was chompin at the bit and shifting in my chair watching you lads
going through the paces.
Be well .. keep smiling .. catch ya on the flip side .. Cheers.
@Edward Pardy Thank you for your service Brother 🇨🇦🪖
From the TV show to this year's ago watching it...the things there doing are educational, joyful, and a beautiful view of life on some occasions.
Civilian SERE school!!! Love it, guys!!! Real life survival!!!
Staying focused when everything around you is chaotic is harder than you think it would be, congrats on your training 👏
Now this…this is content! 🙌
10 second crew
Land seminols?
Your gf say that
No life crew
Everybody tripping yet you were only less than a minute off from me lol 😂😂
Very cool mission. I glad everyone learned in this situation and came out stronger human beings.
This is what the world needs is more of a team effort in good outcomes none of the negative stuff we need and I digress need more positive lives treat everyone with respect and love
Ten seconds in I'm already asking myself WTF is going on. This is gonna be a good one.
Me too 😅😅😅 the title trick us 🙂😂😂
@P!nned by HeavyDSpark awesome, blessings to all of you guys,,.. is a pleasure to watch your videos,.. chingon
@P!need by HeavyDspark definitely I will have a great day
Almost as rough as Boy Scouting was in the 60s! Nowadays youtubers consider it abuse if they don't have their goddamn phones with them!
I'm 50 and my husband 54 we're both retired with over $3 million in net worth and no debt's. Currently living smart and frugal with our money. Saving and investing life style in the stock market made it possible for us this early even till now we earn weekly. Thanks to fire movement.
Great job with your husband! I bet you are living your best life right now.
most economists expect the unemployment rate - which counts how many people are able to work and want a job, but can't find one - to rise this year. And the government haven't said anything regarding the pandemic in Washington.😫
@Jeo williams Fire means Financial Independence Retire Early.
It's been a movement teaching people financial independence and how to and how to retire debt free through solid investment and frugal lifestyle.
Some tips please so others can actually learn. You haven't still share any idea on how you earn weekly!
@@morphyharris1093 I can share some that helped me.
1: plan towards it.
2: be frugal and minimal on spending.
3: spend your money on Investment.
4: choose your trade analys wisely.
5: Invest with a professional trader like Mr. Terrence Rodgers my trade analys.
Brill, Diesel Dave hiding in the bush 🤣
I use to do this kind of stuff when I would go camping in the Boy Scouts. It actually helped me later in my military career.
This blog was epic, great to watch and educational. Really hope to see more.
Loved it....can't wait to see more
Wow. This was awesome. Thank you JT.
Very solid words and true understanding.
Awesome. I'm speechless.
Watching this brought back memories from my years in the Army. When I enlisted, I had some small things I thought I could do, by the time I got out, I knew I could do anything I needed to. Great job, I'm looking forward to seeing more.
This was a very good episode! Very outside the box. It still was a lot of work, no food, no sleep, being cold. And a mental mind game! So interesting. Loved it💕
Enjoyed what you said about being a leader. Knowing how to follow and understanding what the followers go through and understanding direction.
This is the first i have actually genuinely thought to my self that this was one of a kind content.
Love the personal challenge all of you voluntarily accepted and the scenario was obviously very intense! A worst case nightmare situation! Great video, very entertaining and very informative. It definitely makes you think... Loved it outstanding job!!!

Brilliant video guys. Your content just gets better and better. Much respect. Keep doing the good work. Keep living. Keep surviving. Keep exploring.
I truly love this channel. Y’all are far from ever being “same old”. Thanks for your content.
Outstanding AF
Very Different. Great job to a great crew of people. Survivalists ... all of you.
