I’m a 14 year old Washington resident with really bad depression. I just want to let you know that you’ve helped me find something I genuinely love and now I’m going to be spending an entire week in a forest with 2 others. Thank you Les stroud.
I survived a 3 nights lost in the middle of the woods in the smoky mountains in the winter in Tennessee thanks to some of the info I learned from Les. So thankful
I'm 20 years old living in my own first apartment, and Survivorman is one of the few positive consistencies I've had ever since I was a child. Not only is it entertaining, but it's genuinely real, which is part of what's so entertaining about it. The older I get, the more I appreciate the nostalgia and the work you do. Thank you for keeping one of the last pieces of my childhood alive.
I am from Grenada. Its very nice to see my country being featured on your channel. This is how the locals catch crayfish. Chew coconut finely so its hard for them to pick up. Spit a small amount in the water. The crayfish will come out to eat the coconut then you catch them with the hook using a earth worm.
Cut a 2 liter coke bottle in half, flip the side around where you pour the coke and stick it inside the bottom half of the bottle and tape them together. Then drop some raw meat in the bottle and leave it in the water. The crawdads can go in the bottle to eat the meat and can't get out.
@@outlawgt3045 When I was in Oregon, a local taught me to take a forked stick and cut it so the two "tines" of the "fork" were very short. Then you pin the crawdad down by putting the stick just behind their head so they can't move or pinch you. Then grab it with your hand (very carefully, lol) and throw it in your bucket. It's so cool that crawdads are found all over the world and different people have figured out so many different ways to catch them. But, considering how delicious they are, I am not surprised!
I think the lower budget really helps in capturing the genuineness of the situation plus the grittiness. Les has even said that some episodes got a little too crisp with some of the production on some later episodes that he had to reduce.
Les Stroud, Has to be one of my biggest influences growing up, after finding his shows i quickly dropped all the fake survival shows, I love how raw it is and how you watch him really struggle its also symbolic of daily life struggles, and just the weekly grind just getting to next day week or month, Cheers Les he's to plenty more..
You can’t really class this real survival as he only does it for 1 week only, anyone could survive a week. It would be interesting if Les does it longer then 1 week to see if he could make it with that minimal food intake he does as after 2 weeks he wouldn’t even be able to walk far from weakness.
@@mase123456 its a survival show, not an actual real life situation he states that many times in his show, its filled with knowledgable facts and educational points about environment, food basic resource scavenging, ancient elder knowledge and insight, he was doing this before youtube over 20 years ago.
Les is an absolute legend. He shows real survival which is great, but the fact that he makes it 10x harder by recording everything himself, walking 500 meters to set up a camera and then walking back, just so he can get a shot of him approaching .. that's what makes him amazing
not too sure about that. i'm used to watching guys who go in with nothing, Survive That, Dual Survival, Matt Graham, Ed Stafford, Hazen Audel etc. i recently watched my first Survivorman episode (romania) and this chap went in more kitted out than a mid-sized DIY store... he had a lighter, matches, ferrell rod, alcohol stove, energy and protein bars, beef jerky, a full cook-set with 3 containers for water, sealable plastic and garbage bags, modern compass, he even had 3 different fleeces despite simulating someone "on a day hike". he walks about on some trails and then proceeds to trigger a GPS signal and just wait for the rescue team to come find him. at one point he even spends a good 10 minutes doing a tech keynote on his various recording methods and the captivating world of SD cards and batteries...
not doubting he may know his stuff, but there was literally 0 demonstration of any primitive or bush craft skills, hunting, trapping, navigating or orienteering, shelter building, fire starting or anything else you'd expect from an expert demonstrating how to handle oneself in a survival situation...
Glad that Survivorman FINALLY had a situation where he was not killing himself to find small quantities of each thing that he needs. This is one episode where he had it nice, after 2nd day.
Jungle survival, when you have some training and know what won't kill you, is one of the easiest.. just because the extreme abundance of food. Especially if you're in one with no large predators hunting you.
I absolutely LOVE this show. I remember a few years ago a couple of boys fell in a frozen lake and survived, they were asked how did they learn what they knew and they said two words..”SurvivorMan” they learn from Les on what to do in that situation. Fooking awesome!!!
I truly believe that Survivorman was and is the greatest piece of television ever done. Real, entertaining, and could save your life if you pay attention. Thank you, Les.
This show was always so much better than man versus wild. When Les Stroud says he’s gonna go into the jungle with nothing but himself and a camera, you know there’s not a crew right next to him.
Man vs Wild lost me, I think in Scotland, when Bear set himself up for the night. They stopped filming, loaded into their vehicles and went to a hotel. The next morning they came back to the location and resumed filming. The show may still have information and be entertaining, but he is NOT doing it. I know he can, but how many times have they faked it or staged an encounter or event? We'll never know. Survivorman is real. Big. Difference.
Information? He's not a survival expert man, there's a huge difference. He's really a fraud. I know what's he's done, but he does not have the knowledge to teach survival.
@@vision821k4 actually, he is a trained survival expert. Just because there are others who are better than him does not mean he is not also an expert. Source: Fralic, Shelly (2005-09-24). "Survivor reality? Les Stroud does it without the net". Vancouver Sun. pp. F3.
Prove to me he is a survival expert because a simple search has shown me he has no training. He has combat survival training, that is NOT primitive living skills which falls under survival skills in the sense we are talking. So don't "actually" me and "actually" you can fuck off or provide evidence which you can't since non exists. Now eat shit kid.
Les is the real survival show/channel. That grills guy has a damn crew with him and who knows what they have packed as well for "survival". I miss watching this show
I don't understand. If you were in the mood for mango and 🥥 wouldn't it be much easier just going to your local grocery. I would go as far as to say they undoubtedly carry the very organic produce you so crave.
Les you should consider putting together an album of all the sounds you hear in the places you've survived in. The ambient sounds of the jungle, the arctic, islands mountains, etc all compiled into a single video would be amazing to listen to
Seriously...if it were me, and finding all that good supply of food, I would never leave!!! I love nature and I would be gone! what a Paradise! Build myself a little hut and live large!
Since Michael Scott easily handled his survival mission because of your bush wisdom, you should do an episode where you are the regional manager of a small, Pennsylvania paper company.

Les you had so much influence on my life its mad. I can never get enough of your content I watched all the survivorman episodes growing up and being able to rewatch them (sometimes even with your lovely commentary) has brought me so much joy. You're amazing and as a fellow Ontario bum I hope I may be able to shake your hand someday and thank you. Without you I wouldve never gone on my first Portage trip in Algonquin that made me fall in love with the "back-country" and I would never be where I am now trying to plan a future career in the nature world.
ALso, best thing about Les, is that I feel he is really "knowable". I do feel that I could shake his hand, eat a meal with him, and I would know him. He is genuine. That is one of the best things that you can say about someone, in my opinion. Do you know what I mean, Evan?
It’s 2 am and I’m sitting here scrolling through UA-cam and I see a video called “survivorman” and I’ve never been more intrigued to click on something
i know what granada is like . was their in 1983 in operation urgent fury . glad i found your channel , miss survivorman . can't believe people liked that bear moron more ! keep up the good work les .
Man that intro brought me back to my childhood! Haven’t heard it in its entirety in 15 years and it’s as electric as I remember. Thank you for all the lessons and warm memories Les 🙏🏼
as a young sailor from the prairies in Canada and having fallen in love with with the southern hemisphere and its nature as compared to my boreal forests it is a real breath of fresh air to see my childhood hero doing this!! Thanks Les
I spent much of my childhood in boreal forests and i love them. But oddly enough sometimes i was suddenly overtaken by a creepy eerily feeling......something i never had in (sub)tropical forests
You do realize it's pure Hollywood. First and foremost, the boots he wore would not last an hour of a trek in that terrain. That right there proves he's Hollywood and not very knowledgeable. Wanna see real survival, look at my channel- I've been living off grid in the Peruvian Amazon for 4years
@@friendsoftheamazonjungle These shows are all Hollywood. But, at least, Les was the least amount of Hollywood. What drove me nuts about this episode is how he kept sleeping on the ground. 😵💫 Bruh... every single night I would have constructed an elevated bed, as simple as possible, between two trees. I would never, ever, ever sleep on the ground in a jungle (unless you're in a completely enclosed tent or netting). I don't even sleep on the ground here in PA Appalachia during Spring and Summer. Between the ticks, ants, and 7 footer Timber Rattlesnakes.... no way!
I find myself watching every episode and when the credits role, saying "Oh wow, I thought I was only 15 mins in". Survivorman will always be a classic.
At any given time all les has to do is either push a button or radio in and his rescue crew will descend on him in mere moments, this is not a real life survival situation in its truest form, obviously. Only difference is he films himself. It’s television.
@@thenumberofthebeast2 that is true and I seem to remember an episode where he had to used it, but he is still better at this and doesn't really rely on on that as a out.
@@desertshield living there in all honesty is amazing especially where I live close to the Beach on a hill the view is breath taking. It get really hot sometimes in dry season around the coast lands like mostly all Caribbean islands. The biggest and in my opinion the most beautiful beach is grand ans beach the water is crystal clear And the sand is as white as it can be. Going to the Beach always feels very relaxing if you lay down the sea breeze is bound to make you fall asleep. And then there are the waterfalls there are so many beautiful waterfalls and the nature that surrounds them is lush and lively as can be the journey alone to the different water falls can be breathing taking because the roads are surrounded by rainforest and there is this one beautiful lake where a durmant volcano once stood and around the island there or different hot natural hot springs . There is much more about Grenada that I didn't speak about. If you would like to know more or see pictures taken there you can text me on Instagram I'll send you pictures or tell you more. My Instagram is Microxxd_ltd
Been watching Les for over 10 years and his survival show is easily the best one that has been around. Interesting locations, filming everything himself, he's charismatic and Les keeps the survival aspect at the center of the show (unlike many other "survival" shows).
Les was like a god to me as a kid and through my teenage years . I have always been into the outdoors and survival technique. Coming across "survivorman" was awesome, i have seen every episode probably 20 times . Im so stoked he has the rights to his work and to be able to put all of these back to our attention so that the younger generation can enjoy one of the best tv shows ever made. THANK YOU LES!!!!
Always a great day when there's a Survivorman episode uploaded. I love watching Les endure the harshness of the outdoors while I'm wrapped up all warm and cosy
Less your the best survivalist on tv. Its a shame that the big foot deal shoved you off TV. I for one dont believe it but regardless. No reason to oust a master. Thank you for your work. 👍🏻🌲🤝
Les is amazing. The Stevie Wonder of survival, if you will (with some serious musical chops as well!) I started watching his show over a decade ago and have watched them all countless times. Never gets old because it’s authentic. The amount of experience and work it takes to make it look this easy is to be admired. I knew this dude was authentic when he filmed himself crossing a glacier, which meant he also had to go back and get the camera!
Watching this made me appreciate the nice cool glass of fresh water with ice on my desk right now. Watching this made me appreciate the feeling of fullness from eating a nice meal. Watching this made me appreciate the nice warm house and bed I get to live in. All in all, Im grateful that I have those things right now.
My absolute favorite thing about your videos, is how you catch how all these different kinds of nature actually feels like to be in. Normally in documentaries, all these beautiful shots are enhanced with an overuse of lensing effects in order to "enhance" how they look, making them more flashy and what not, ruins the feeling. But not your documentaries, I can really feel the environment. The way you try to shoot every crevice and all those details in your surroundings really helps, really cool technique and style. Thank you man, I salute you.
I used to watch every episode he put out while it was on TV, there were a lot of shows of survival but they always had crews with them and to me some of them felt kinda fake and scripted. But with Les it was genuine because he was alone and he was doing all the filming and I even learned a few things from him and used them while I was working for Yellowstone national park as we were backpacking out in the country to work on trails that were washed out or needed repairs. I love him for posting all his episodes on UA-cam for us to watch takes me back as a kid. Thank you les
I started watching Survivorman with the "10 days" series. Since then, was actively looking for ways to watch. Thank you very much for putting these on YT... Loving everything... 😁✌️🇵🇭
I always loved watching Les Stroud's Survivor Man when I was a kid. Now I am married and have 2 kids of my own and Les Stroud is on UA-cam. I am glad he's still the same. My kids like watching his TV shows. Keep up the good work, I am looking forward for more New Episodes. Stay Awesome Les Stroud. 😎👍
All the love in the world for Les and the ridiculous efforts he goes through to inform and entertain us. It's so green and dark there, the colors feel like they are supporting the mood.
10:22 That sounded like a machete chopping through a branch if I ever heard such a sound so clear. This may be the first time I've questioned if you are truly alone out there. Considering insurance and his production value, I never thought he was alone out there but truly I believe in my heart he is. Les Stroud is a legend and I believe he would need no help to survive in many if not all of these places. He's been a solid inspiration for me much of my life. I put him up there with Sir David Attenborough and Steve Irwin. Thanks for all that you do Les!!!
I'm so glad your channel seems to be really taking off. I remember when you first started out and it was a new experience for you and you were finding your footing with a platform you didn't usually use before for your content. I've watched your show since I was a young kid. Always rooting for you!
Hey Les, I hope this UA-cam approach is working for you because this is truly the best medium I have ever used to view your content. You're the man, and an inspiration to me and have taught me so much throughout the years. All the best to you in your survival endeavors.
Thanks for uploading your content Les. So many great adventures! Always watched your series when I saw it on the tv when I was younger. Keep up the great work!
Just discovered I can rewatch all of these on UA-cam, one of my favorite shows growing up and it’s refreshing especially with COVID seeing you do so much stuff outdoors. The great thing is that the years haven’t diminished the quality, if anything I comprehend more as I get older and it makes watching more enjoyable. Thank you Les for everything you do.
Les I have watched your show countless times. I used to watch you drinking in the barracks making my little meals on a hot plate thinking this dude is drinking rainwater from a leaf. You gave me some great tips thanks for all that you do
I’ve been watching les since I was 12. when he was on the discovery channel so many years ago. I learned so much survival skills and and lessons I seen hardships he been through and stress wow I have so much respect for him u deserve so much more views
I’m a 14 year old Washington resident with really bad depression. I just want to let you know that you’ve helped me find something I genuinely love and now I’m going to be spending an entire week in a forest with 2 others. Thank you Les stroud.
I survived a 3 nights lost in the middle of the woods in the smoky mountains in the winter in Tennessee thanks to some of the info I learned from Les. So thankful
Mid 20s and 30s here this week at night. Not as easy without fire craft skills as some may think. Glad you made it home ok
Wow. that must have been a scary experience!
Which tips were useful for you?
Lived right next door to the smokies myself, beautiful place. Good thing about the smokies, no shortage of creeks!
Been there done that, never again I was on channel 3 too!

Nice comment brother. I feel the same way.
I am from Grenada. Its very nice to see my country being featured on your channel. This is how the locals catch crayfish. Chew coconut finely so its hard for them to pick up. Spit a small amount in the water. The crayfish will come out to eat the coconut then you catch them with the hook using a earth worm.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!
Huh... Cool!!!
Cut a 2 liter coke bottle in half, flip the side around where you pour the coke and stick it inside the bottom half of the bottle and tape them together. Then drop some raw meat in the bottle and leave it in the water. The crawdads can go in the bottle to eat the meat and can't get out.
@@outlawgt3045 When I was in Oregon, a local taught me to take a forked stick and cut it so the two "tines" of the "fork" were very short. Then you pin the crawdad down by putting the stick just behind their head so they can't move or pinch you. Then grab it with your hand (very carefully, lol) and throw it in your bucket.

What about this this one or 2 pound crayfish business? I've never heard or seen such a thing. Sure can't find a picture of one that big anywhere.
Love the episodes where Les gets to eat more often than not.
Me too I wish he hunt some more 🥺🥺
better when he has to starve , dont have to listen to his groans like he doing it!! everytime he it's a bit of fruit 🤣🤣
He doesn't mind munching and crunching on something green and grassy.
I bet he likes it more too
I know, he's always on the brink of starvation. I don't feel sorry for him in this one
Lower budget than most survival show yet better and more genuine than almost all of them. King of the wild Les Stroud everybody!
Not most but all not to mention the first real and genuine one ☝️
I think the lower budget really helps in capturing the genuineness of the situation plus the grittiness. Les has even said that some episodes got a little too crisp with some of the production on some later episodes that he had to reduce.
I enjoy the simplicity and lower budget over the latest and greatest catchy survival shit
What a a treasure to find when you think you have seen every episode, one you havent seen.
So true. Didn’t know this one was out there.
Ur lucky

The amount of work that goes into this production cannot be understated
The feeling of cracking open those coconuts and mangos had to be unbelievable. You can tell by the way Les hums when he eats. Survivorman forever!
If there's one important thing that Les has taught me about the jungle, it's that I have zero business going to the jungle.
I just appreciate that out of all the “survival” shows. This one isn’t just made for tv entertainment.
Les Stroud and his harmonica are the best duo
Been watching Les Stroud since I was 14.. this dude is hands down better than bear grylls

Facts
100% wished to be this guy my dude!
I can't stand Grills... He's annoying and he always does a lot of things that seem really dumb to me
At any given time all les has to do is either push a button or radio in and his rescue crew will descend on him in mere moments, this is not a real life survival situation in its truest form, obviously. Only difference is he films himself. It’s television.
@@thenumberofthebeast2 that is true and I seem to remember an episode where he had to used it, but he is still better at this and doesn't really rely on on that as a out.
Thank you for featuring my beautiful island Grenada🇬🇩. Our insects and snakes and other forest animals are non venemous. Thank you.
Am from Grenada and it was really good seeing this ill share this with everyone I know
St David!
How is living there?
@@desertshield living there in all honesty is amazing especially where I live close to the Beach on a hill the view is breath taking. It get really hot sometimes in dry season around the coast lands like mostly all Caribbean islands. The biggest and in my opinion the most beautiful beach is grand ans beach the water is crystal clear And the sand is as white as it can be. Going to the Beach always feels very relaxing if you lay down the sea breeze is bound to make you fall asleep. And then there are the waterfalls there are so many beautiful waterfalls and the nature that surrounds them is lush and lively as can be the journey alone to the different water falls can be breathing taking because the roads are surrounded by rainforest and there is this one beautiful lake where a durmant volcano once stood and around the island there or different hot natural hot springs . There is much more about Grenada that I didn't speak about. If you would like to know more or see pictures taken there you can text me on Instagram I'll send you pictures or tell you more.

@@Microxxd Thank you for your detailed description! It sounds lovely. 😊 Maby I will fly over for a trip.
Are the people there nice too?
@@desertshield yeah definitely and friendly too you should visit
Thanks Les Stroud. Your the best. Nobody does it better...and your ageless it seems.
Been watching Les for over 10 years and his survival show is easily the best one that has been around. Interesting locations, filming everything himself, he's charismatic and Les keeps the survival aspect at the center of the show (unlike many other "survival" shows).
Finally a thriving video
doing this all while filming is impressive
I agree. This was back when cameras were still quite heavy. Gopros were not around yet.
@@brycebullard3619 he's wearing a go pro in this video. It's an early model but this episode isn't to old.
In some of the older videos he said the film equipment bag weighed 55 pounds

Les was like a god to me as a kid and through my teenage years . I have always been into the outdoors and survival technique. Coming across "survivorman" was awesome, i have seen every episode probably 20 times . Im so stoked he has the rights to his work and to be able to put all of these back to our attention so that the younger generation can enjoy one of the best tv shows ever made. THANK YOU LES!!!!
Always a great day when there's a Survivorman episode uploaded. I love watching Les endure the harshness of the outdoors while I'm wrapped up all warm and cosy
Yes, those are the best days ever ...
This is my first ever episode of survivorman and I gotta say it felt like I was just hanging out with my pops the whole time such a cool dude
Here i am completely speechless having watched every single episode to now see this GEM
🇬🇩 473!! Loads of us are addicted to survivor Man's show!! Les, we did this in three hours....I was 14!!
Do you live in Grenada? My dad lives in la fortune, st Patrick’s.
@@kingkonglji no I am in Toronto..but my Dad is from River Salie and Mom is from Big Parish
Les defined the genre and is still the best. I'm so glad you got your youtube channel going!
I love this. Survivorman is awesome. God bless. 😇❤❤❤
Can’t tell you how appreciative I am you’re constantly posting new content !!!!!! I’ve watched survivor man my entire young life!
Less your the best survivalist on tv. Its a shame that the big foot deal shoved you off TV. I for one dont believe it but regardless. No reason to oust a master. Thank you for your work. 👍🏻🌲🤝
Les is amazing. The Stevie Wonder of survival, if you will (with some serious musical chops as well!) I started watching his show over a decade ago and have watched them all countless times. Never gets old because it’s authentic. The amount of experience and work it takes to make it look this easy is to be admired. I knew this dude was authentic when he filmed himself crossing a glacier, which meant he also had to go back and get the camera!
Watching this made me appreciate the nice cool glass of fresh water with ice on my desk right now.
Watching this made me appreciate the feeling of fullness from eating a nice meal.
Watching this made me appreciate the nice warm house and bed I get to live in.
All in all, Im grateful that I have those things right now.
Les, I am currently thru hiking the arizona trail. You have no idea how much you have helped me. No sweat or die here ;) crazy snow and elevation!!
I remember watching Survivorman about 15 years ago when I was a kid and I still love it
Thank you again for continuing to upload these amazing videos for us. You’re the best, man.
My absolute favorite thing about your videos, is how you catch how all these different kinds of nature actually feels like to be in. Normally in documentaries, all these beautiful shots are enhanced with an overuse of lensing effects in order to "enhance" how they look, making them more flashy and what not, ruins the feeling. But not your documentaries, I can really feel the environment. The way you try to shoot every crevice and all those details in your surroundings really helps, really cool technique and style. Thank you man, I salute you.
Les kicks MacGuyver's ass any day of the week, on any continent in the world. Period, end of story. This man is a legend.
@Wally Fish McGyver gets locked up, and then has to improvise his way out. Les does surviving
I used to watch every episode he put out while it was on TV, there were a lot of shows of survival but they always had crews with them and to me some of them felt kinda fake and scripted. But with Les it was genuine because he was alone and he was doing all the filming and I even learned a few things from him and used them while I was working for Yellowstone national park as we were backpacking out in the country to work on trails that were washed out or needed repairs. I love him for posting all his episodes on UA-cam for us to watch takes me back as a kid. Thank you les
I started watching Survivorman with the "10 days" series. Since then, was actively looking for ways to watch. Thank you very much for putting these on YT... Loving everything... 😁✌️🇵🇭
I always loved watching Les Stroud's Survivor Man when I was a kid.
Now I am married and have 2 kids of my own and Les Stroud is on UA-cam.
I am glad he's still the same.
My kids like watching his TV shows.
Keep up the good work, I am looking forward for more New Episodes.
Stay Awesome Les Stroud. 😎👍
Thank you for everything that you do Les. It’s such a good feeling to see you doing well.
Have you seen Les in Grenada island? thats one of my fav episodes
i used to fall asleep to your shows on netflix for years. Seen this one probably 50 times by now. Best survival show
Is it bad that I like to eat and watch this show? Lmao been like this since I was a kid watching this 😂
Me too! Lol i have trouble sleeping at night so watching poor les struggle makes my bed feel extra cozy and i fall asleep 😅
I’m eating watching rn lol
Survivorman. Thank you so much. High quality video? Oh yes!
Never get tired of watching this show.
I gotta say, I really do appreciate you, your videos, and everything you do man!
All the love in the world for Les and the ridiculous efforts he goes through to inform and entertain us.
It's so green and dark there, the colors feel like they are supporting the mood.
This was a fantastic episode. Thanks les so much for placing these here for us to enjoy. Your a wealth of knowledge and it’s truly appreciated!
My beautiful island Grenada🇬🇩
10:22 That sounded like a machete chopping through a branch if I ever heard such a sound so clear. This may be the first time I've questioned if you are truly alone out there. Considering insurance and his production value, I never thought he was alone out there but truly I believe in my heart he is.
Les Stroud is a legend and I believe he would need no help to survive in many if not all of these places. He's been a solid inspiration for me much of my life. I put him up there with Sir David Attenborough and Steve Irwin. Thanks for all that you do Les!!!
Huge Fan. I can never get tired of watching Les Survive.
Me Esther , He is AWESOME. From USA
I always love these shows and think about them when I'm in the wilderness part of my state
Les inspired me to wildcamp and explore. Thank you Les for sharing your skills and videos with us.
A decade later and I'm still watching these videos every night. Taught me to improvise with anything I have in any scenario.
Crazy...I just saw my own comment from a yr ago. And I'm here still entertained by the same video a yr later.
I'm so glad your channel seems to be really taking off. I remember when you first started out and it was a new experience for you and you were finding your footing with a platform you didn't usually use before for your content. I've watched your show since I was a young kid. Always rooting for you!
I've appreciated less all these years of watching and more I've appreciated that he's remained humble,real and level-headed!
Hey Les, I hope this UA-cam approach is working for you because this is truly the best medium I have ever used to view your content. You're the man, and an inspiration to me and have taught me so much throughout the years. All the best to you in your survival endeavors.
Accept for all the horrible ads. I enjoy watching SURVIVOR MAN on UA-cam too
Oh yes! Les Stroud doing survival is one of my favorite things to watch. Glad he's still doing it.
Thanks for uploading your content Les. So many great adventures! Always watched your series when I saw it on the tv when I was younger. Keep up the great work!
All i can say is thank you for releasing these on youtube for me and my family and everyone to enjoy.
Just discovered I can rewatch all of these on UA-cam, one of my favorite shows growing up and it’s refreshing especially with COVID seeing you do so much stuff outdoors. The great thing is that the years haven’t diminished the quality, if anything I comprehend more as I get older and it makes watching more enjoyable. Thank you Les for everything you do.
Les, you're a gift to us all. Thank you for sharing the series to youtube.
Les: *Finally, I can sleep better now that I found this abandoned hut.*
Fire Ants: *You mean WE found this abandoned hut.*
Les I have watched your show countless times. I used to watch you drinking in the barracks making my little meals on a hot plate thinking this dude is drinking rainwater from a leaf. You gave me some great tips thanks for all that you do
Favourite thing to look forward to every Friday. Les the legend
Thank you less straud. Everyone else is trying to get rich off survival you sir are true to your craft thank you
