To be honest with you, my friend, I didn’t think you were gonna make it there for a minute. Water looked awfully rough. Glad you made it safe and unhurt.😊
Quite fortunate that the waves were headed straight at you. Sideways waves woulda dumped you for sure. Also 20,000+ views and only 1,600 likes??? Cmon!! After all… he’s Sam Bananas 😊
This is great Sam, so happy you made it out there! Jim and I visit this island all the time, true statement about people leaving trash. Thank you for grabbing what other people left! Safe travels, I look forward to the next video.
Super happy you finally made it to the island and that you got there safely. Thankyou for the history of the island, it's a really cool place and a pity that neither State is doing anything to preserve it. Great video, you're doing really well being a full-time UA-camr 😊.
A "LITTLE" Choppy? You are a brave soul. I would have turned around 2 minutes in. LOL Seriously though, so glad you finally made it across. So awesome! Took me back to my childhood with those berries. Oh, the good old days!
OMG that looked scary paddling through all those big waves. I'm so glad you made it without any mishaps. That was intense. Great camping spot. Thanks for taking on those waves to take us along to see the island and lighthouse. It was friggen awesome! 😊👍
Tiny Trails Kenneth-Kieran here with my meadows so meager. That's such an awesome spot man! I love all that old industrial stuff laying around, I always find that stuff fascinating. And that rainy morning? Chefs kiss. btw I'm pretty sure you nailed the conga lyrics, that all sounded very right to me
Great video. You handled that canoe like a boss. The Lake Erie water phenomenon is a concern. Winds and rapid changes in atmospheric pressure push water from one end to the other then the water rebounds and can oscillate back and forth for hours or even days. And the moon and sun cause tides. Be careful out there.
Hi Sam, Enjoyed your channel on the island. I would have camped on the sunset side. Walked over on the other side in the morning to see the sunrise with a cup of coffee .
Sam Bananas, that’s a really cool island and history. Too bad the lighthouse was let go. Your journey across the water to get to it made me nervous. But, happy you got to it safely. Really great video. Thank you!
Love your fearlessness of new experiences. It also hasn’t gone unnoticed you are happier, eating better and are in much better shape than when you started these adventures. Kudos to you, banana whiskey man!
Heyy Sam I was holding my breath,praying you did capsize,beautiful place it's great knowing the history of the place,awesome video thanks for sharing stay safe
Very interesting 👌 👍. Real shame about all the trash. I do same as you, pick up at our local park every day when I take dog for a walk. Thanks Sam. Great video.
always enjoy watching your videos, possible tip, a giant sponge and old gallon container(bottom cut out) will help bail out the water quickly if the canoe fills up in choppy water,
Thank you for a nice video. You kinda worried me rowing to the island. Very rough. The island is very interesting. Can’t wait until your next journey. Take care
I would have to give you a big thumbs up on that one happy to see you made it there and back safe. That island would be a great place if it were all cleaned up and if people would keep it that way. Again nice video stay safe and keep them coming.
Hey Sam life is bananas and it is sure nice having a friend like you taking us along for all the fun. I bet you could catch some fish out there on that island. Brian from Colorado 🤠
I did enjoy this video. Loved hearing about the lighthouse and the island. It is interesting hearing about old things such as the lighthouse and dispute over who owns it. Thanks for taking us along. God Bless you and stay safe.❤❤❤❤❤
Good morning! This was awesome! I’m glad you made it out there, it looked really rough on the water! It paid off though, what an amazing spot! I think you should go back and camp on the other end sometime! Can’t go wrong with Red Stripe!! Take care my friend!!
Great video, love your adventures and this has to be one of the best. Don't take to many risks on water, it takes no prisoners. Stay safe mate and looking forward to the next one.
You definitely took it to the next level then skipped ahead two levels after that. lol camp level 10. Hell yea my friend. Keep putting yourself to the next level. 👏
I'm so glad for another video!😊 And I'm glad that you had your chair well away from the fire people on other videos I've seen have their chairs really close to the fire. I'm glad you made it safe to the island!
Been waiting for this and I have been greatly rewarded! I loved it! Was a little bit iffy there for a while but you persevered and made it. Great job and awesome video Sam.
It is time for a BIG clean up there on the island. People will never learn to clean up after themselves. And it looks like the water is slowly taking over the island. And Sam, I thought you had stopped with camping, because I got no notifications more of new videos. But for some reason I was unsubscribed from your channel. 😭 I didn't do that, I think it was You Tube. But now I am subscribed again and I have so much videos to watch! I am happy to be back.

Good on ya, brother! You gotta get one of those grabber devices and keep your hands away from the garbage. (Trash are the people who left it there) Retired Canadian Coast Guard member here...always choose the lighthouse side! Cheers, eh!

You and me both!
Yeah those waves were pretty sketch for a canoe 🛶 lol
That wasn’t very smart Sam. You swamp its game over. Where is your bailer? Always do those trips in the morning before the wind picks up.
Quite fortunate that the waves were headed straight at you. Sideways waves woulda dumped you for sure. Also 20,000+ views and only 1,600 likes??? Cmon!! After all… he’s Sam Bananas 😊
Yeah they basically always go in the direction, that's part of the reason why I paddled down the shore that far.
A very brave determined paddle that had me worried for your safety. You were bombing off waves like a champion. Great effort and super fun video.
Appreciate that!
Thanks for the great video, and the history of the place. Likewise, thanks for being vocal about the problem of littering.
You bet!
This is great Sam, so happy you made it out there! Jim and I visit this island all the time, true statement about people leaving trash. Thank you for grabbing what other people left! Safe travels, I look forward to the next video.
Hi Kandace!!!!
Our boat sank 7 miles out on Lake Erie when I was about 11. Almost died. Glad you made it. You're a brave man.
That's crazy!
Even if Sam Bananas camped in the desert, he'd manage to get soaking wet!
@@rightsideupvt-Yea Eh, Somehow, Someway.

Outstanding Sam, you're some guy! And the singing wasn't bad either. Inspirational journey and video - thanks again, Nigel, Scotland
Lighthouse you picked a good spot.
Duuuude! You are ballsy! Tough! Love this video. This was on so many people's bucket list I'm willing to bet!
I bet you're right! Hi Aunt Kerry!
Best banana show ever, I liked almost everything about it.... The jury is still out on the chimichanga routine.
🤣🤣🤣🤙
Thanks Sam, totally loved it. YES !! Would love more island adventures. Keep making great videos.
Thank you! Will do!
Whenever Sam does a shot, I do one at the same time in his videos.

It's a great day when Sam posts! I always love going on an adventure with you.
Always nice to see ya buddy!
Whew! Big relief when you landed!
LOVED THIS!
👍👍
Cool camping experience and abandoned place! Not sure I would have braved the waves! Looking forward to your new adventures.
Thanks for watching!

Hi Karen nice to see ya!! Yeah I was happy to get there and happy it was calm in the morning
Hi Sam happy to see you back

Glad you finally made it! Those waters still looked pretty trecherous. Interestering history. Thanks.
You bet 👍
My favorite video yet! I love the water and the adventure of the abandoned site. Great work!
Glad you enjoyed it! I worked really hard on this one
Come on Sam we’re watching you. You can do it. Thank you for taking us along with you.

Great trip Sam. I could be very happy spending a few days out there just daydreaming Thank you and please do it again,
Will do! Thinking about heading back here for a survival challenge
So fun! I would have loved to do something like that in my younger days. Thanks for bringing us along!
You are so welcome!
Woohoo!!!!!! I’m so glad you made it! Loved the spot by the lighthouse! Great choice!
Nice to see ya Lori!

That was really funny, laughing with you and not at you. You were feeling really good there.
Thanks for joining!
Loved this one! Balls of steel my friend! 🍌
Thank you!!
That camp was a win-win on either side... maybe that's a reason to do it again
Right! I'm thinking about trying to go back and do a survival trip here.
I grew up around there. Sure is fun seeing you camp there. Never been on the island. Fished around it though.
Very cool! Glad you liked it 🙂
Son, this is one of those I've been waiting for!!!
Love you Mom!

You did good picking that spot. Beautiful Island is beautiful.
It really is!
It's a good day when a new Sam Bananas video comes out!
😎
Been waiting for this and I have been greatly rewarded! I loved it! Was a little bit iffy there for a while but you persevered and made it. Great job and awesome video Sam.
Glad you enjoyed it! I was really happy to get this one done. Big bucket list item for me.
It was the dancing around the fire for me 😂😂😂
😎 🤣
Epic video Sam. Great content.
Thank you!!
Go sam Go!!
🙏
this is a really good one Sam.
Thanks man! I know you've been around a long time so I appreciate that 👍
If you look at the satellite view, you can totally see how the old peninsula theory is viable. Nice vid, bro!
No doubt! Thanks for stopping by friend!
Need to do an island clean up. Use a motor boat so you can bring back garbage. Glad you finally made it to the island. 🎉
Me too!
Great lakes can be like the ocean at times.
Sure can
One of your best videos yet Sammy B.
I really appreciate that. I worked super hard on this one
Sam that was nerve racking paddle to the island!
It was, hey Tony!

You might of remembered the flask, and beer, but you forgot the 101 proof wild turkey...❤❤❤😊😊😊
Thats some nasty shite, Id forget it too.😊
Finally put it in the latest video
Hey Sam! Thank you for the video!!! Nice out there!!😊💞
Thank you for tuning in!
Omg lmao!!! On your dancing!!!😂😂😂🍾🎉🕺🏼
🤣🤣🤣
that island used to be 13 acres and had a farm on it also great perch fishing around there
Yeah I e caught a bunch of white bass out there!
Love it
Hey bud!
Awesome video
Thanks!
I can’t believe you kept going lol Those white caps would have did me in!! Thanks for sharing, very cool spot for sure!!
Thanks for watching! Yeah I was definitely nervous but there were too many failed attempts at that point.

Stellar video, sir.
Thank you kindly!
The interaction between "Small Plots With Kevin" and Sam Bananas was really funny and really interesting at the same time. Well done, Sir!
Thank you!
This was a GREAT upload. Maybe my favorite so far! I just kept thinking Sam was on Oak Island...
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great trip Sam!
