My biggest takeaway from Jim Corbett stories is to never give up no matter what. This man was relentless in his pursuit. We live in different times but there's so much that still applies. Great work on the audio, mate!
Corbet was only mopping up the mess made by Europeans. At a time when the people of India were not allowed to have proper weapons to protect themselves. Don't forget, they had been living with tigers for a thousand years without needing Europeans for anything.
YES! This is, in my opinion Jim Corbett at his very best. It's a perfect microcosm of that line, walked so perfectly and elegantly, between a description of place and time, whilst simultaneously telling a startling, tense and quite blood-curdling adventure story. The hard part for me, is reminding myslef that this all really happened. A man absolutely part of the fabric of India, both in terms of its people, its landscape and its wildlife. Remarkable. And of course, a masterful performance Mr Singh, as ever; thank you. B
Lo and behold, the main man returns with a Corbett classic. This is one of my favorite stories of all time by any author. Its feels as authentic as it is incredible with the amount of detail that Corbett has added. His storytelling just like his sportsmanship was unmatched.
I'm very much familiar with the story but listening to the audio version in your voice adds a whole new dimension to it and makes it come alive. Thank you!
Thank you for posting these Apratim! (I hope I spelled your name right) I really enjoy Jim Corbett stories, so much so I am planning a trip to India to follow some of the trails in the stories.
I have been thinking of doing the same for a while now, although I can tell you that the actual places that Corbett frequented in these stories are in the backcountry and very difficult to get to. But I would atleast love to visit his home in Kaladhungi and the nearby world famous Jim Corbett National Park.
It's rare that people can spell or even say my first name, so this warms my heart. Thank you for commenting and may you get to see some of the places in beautiful Corbett country. Hiring a local guide will help becase just like the other commenter said, these are still places that are off the beaten track.
@@selvalore I kind of cheated and looked up the pronunciation from the video and then compared it with what I found when looking up names of people with Singh (very common), but I do have a lot of cultural studies behind me and that made it easier. Thank you again.
@@anilnair6766 Yes, there are some blogs out there where people have tried following some of the trails and have had to use google maps to geolocate the areas because they are so back country and dangerous to venture into without guns and guides.
Thak Man Eating Tigress was killed by Jim Corbett in 30 November 1938 in Kumaon Region , India , Jim Corbett was born in Nainital town in 1875 and He Died in Kenya in 1955 .
@@selvalore we are very Lucky to have stories written by sir Kenneth Anderson and sir 'Jim' Corbett. We are also lucky to have you reading them. Thank you 🙏
I am very much enchanted by the hunting story of Sir Edward Jim Corbett since when I was a teenager. Till today often I listen to it in You Tube. I am ever thankful to You Tube. Please make more such videos.
An extraordinary story that engulfs you in a world of nature, danger, courage and skill. This reading is an outstanding tribute to Jim Corbett. Well done!
Thanks for your excellent Corbett readings. His descriptions of the people and places of Kumaon and Gharwaal resonate with my experience living in Bajhang District of far west Nepal as a US Peace Corps volunteer in the early 1990s. Dhanyabad hajur 🙏
Always look forward to hearing your latest story . Jim Corbett was an extraordinary man who lived an extraordinary life . Thank you as always for your hard work and dedication to bring us these wonderful stories. 👍👍
So happy to see you dropped another video. I love these audiobooks. So ready to be transported to a different time and place. Perfect antidote after a long day.
We’ve been not-so-patiently waiting for this one and I told my kids I was CERTAIN you would put out a Christmas timed story. Thanks for filling my prophecy! 😂👍
Haha, I wish I'd known about this. I'd have put it out sooner. Have a merry Christmas ahead Dylan, and a very happy New Year as well to you and to your family.

Thank you for your efforts Mr. Singh. Much appreciated. 👍🏽 Your videos are the most awaited ones. I end up searching once every day after the 3rd week of the previous video.
Good things DO come to those who wait. I thank you for this video, even before I listen to it. I know it will be first class among audiobooks. I place a like on the video and comment even before I listen to it, because I know it can only be superlative. Thank you for being the best. When I saw the length of the video I must say how pleased I am. Yours is my number one channel. I encourage each subscriber to Selva Lore to always like and comment the channel to show our appreciation. Thank you for your excellence.
No matter how many times I read this story or listen to it I still feel that same thrill. This tigress though had killed very few humans but tested Mr. Corbett 's skills to the edge. Wish there was a follow up account on Corbett 's experience in that deserted village.
Thanks a lot dear Sir and your sincere effort to inject sweet nostalgia of Late Corbette Sir into the dormant minds of people by resurrecting the unforgettable jungle stories. Thanks a lot. Please make more videos Sir. ❤
I have read all his books over the years but never get tired of the stories. The biggest take away was that he was very much a conservationist and didn't hunt for just killing but to rid the villages of a maneater.
Corbett’s ability to track the tigers moving through the forest, using animal warning calls is what kept him alive. Amazing story of survival and helping your fellow man.
Man i check your channel for a new upload every day and if their isnt a new one up i just watch the older ones. I cannot describe how mutch i love your content and please dont ever stop!
Thank you so much ,I'd always planned to read more of his trips and this is the first audio book I've ever sat through and might be one of the best I'll ever hear again thanks so much !
Incredible real story, flawlessly narrated. Even if a modern man tries to appreciate the risk, hardship, goodwill, skill, stamina and courage of Jim Corbett its not possible to even realize 1% of it. Just try walking in a dark night near a wooded area, and then think if there was a man-eater watching you, you will run like no tomorrow. Jim corbett's stories are best inspirations for the humanity.
I've always loved these books and am enjoying your channel very much. Your native accent gives the stories a lovely bonus. I am impressed how much your recording quality and reading voice have improved since the early uploads. Thank you for posting these audio stories. Keep up the good work.
Thank you, Mr. Kanengieter! I appreciate you saying that. I'm not a professional voice actor or a narrator, and I've had to figure it out as I've gone along with this and i'm still learning.
Congratulations on another wonderfully executed audiobook. The potent mix of simplicity of Corbett's descriptive writing, the truth of the story and the enthralling adventure that it contains cannot be matched in this genre. Thank you for giving voice to this timeless and legendary tale.
You're welcome! Yes, Corbett's exploits are legendary. We have his writings and his books to cherish and treasure for the rest of time. Thank you for commenting!
Waah, we've been waiting for an upload from you. Thanks for this amazing narration. Your voice adds a whole new dimension to the story. Keep up the good work
I love hearing these stories from someone who is from india or has parents from india. My favorite aunt is from india. And ever since i was a small kid ive been fascinated with her culture and family. Her two sons are my favorite cousins and i do my best to be a good older male role model for them like she and my uncle were for me. Hearing your voice reminds me of her family. Thanks for the authentic experience.
Have had wonderful, unexpected intergenerational intersection. My mom had this book (Why? She was a real Southern lady lady!!) and I read it when young, many years ago. Gripping storytelling. I still remember one line...shiver. Anyway, today my adult nephew shares this with me, sure I'll be interested...WHAT?!?!? I didn't know it was still available!!! And delight, a connection!!! I wouldnt even share memories til he's finished - spoilers would ruin it. Thank you so much for posting this. Some read through eyes, some through ears, it's still reading. And shared literature is a tie that binds hearts! ❤❤❤❤❤
what a icon jim corbett was. courageos , hard working , great determination , keep fightong attitude whatever may be the circumstances . by the way great narration to by mr singh.
If you could just read one of stories about hunting maneaters, it would have to be this. This has always been my go-to Corbett tale. Simple and decluttered writing and well narrated as well.
I so wish to have had the opportunity to be born in his time and got an opportunity to meet this legend! Alas!! Thank you Apratim ji.. You yourself are creating a legacy of your own by giving your voice to these stories!! Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
The man-eaters from Kumaon is amid my favourite books. I've read it many times. Perhaps it's the book I have read the most times. It started before 40 years while adolescent and continue now but in English. I'd say that this is one of the books of my life.
Thanks for uploading the best Jim Corbett story Mr Viraj Singh. Imagine Jim going after this tiger at 63 years of age. Your narration is excellent as usual. Thanks once again Mr Singh.

Ah, you tempt me Mr. Husayn! Winters in the jungles are the best. May I ask where you stay?

@@mrhusaynful My word! That's beautiful tiger country all around. Lucky guy!
Oh and kudos to Mr. Singh without whom we would probably never hear these tales. The telling of the story is captivating.
Magnificently narrated 👍🏼
Thank you!
I love the stories you read for us kind sir! I humbly request that you continue Maneater stories even when you run low/out of stories that take place in India. I also humbly request that you read to us Jungle Lore in its entirety. Thank you for sharing these riveting tails.
