Well spoken

Dasani is good, I don’t understand all the hate
Old school documentarians that had the good sense to keep the rights to their shows are hitting a gold mine right now. The amount of old school things that would do so well on a platform like UA-cam, but are locked in the vaults of discovery or nat geo is bloody heart breaking.

Yeah it's really dumb, they could make bank off youtube ads (since they're a big corp)....and it's literally 100% profit with no effort
@@funtourhawk yeah im glad they dont do that. creators deserve the rights to their creations
It’s true, I don’t understand why people are so quick to give up full rights to their stuff after going through all the danger and trouble to do it.
The King of survival shows. No other survival show is as authentic or immersive as a Les Straus survival experience.

the comment i was lookin for! cheers legend
I’ve waited YEARS to see these old episodes again, and from your youtube !! Thanks Les
Same!
Same here
Would be nice to watch without so many commercials UA-cam
@@fredclements6843 just play video too the end and replay it all ads gone✌
Jared Mitchener What are you talking about? This is Les’ channel. He’s been uploading original content and commentary as well
I have a 7 year old who only wants to watch 3 things, survivorman, steve1989, and camping with Steve. After finding survivorman on UA-cam it is his favorite thing to watch
Nathan Thayer play some Minecraft assboi a🐍🐍
As an Aussie I had bear grills as my TV survivalist. It's a really nice change to see you not drinking your own piss.
I WANT ads on this video. Les Stroud is a legend with a hard earned reputation
I keep forgetting he’s Canadian until he says “out”
And "again"
@Christopher Williams it's more like "oat"
What are you talking aboot?
@@mrarthur9183 Please tell me that's an intentional Bobby Hill reference..

26:58 "The irony being that I'm eating Booby breast" LOL! Les is the man. Thanks from Tokyo
@@lesleyj.stroud1713 I remember being sick from school and watching survivorman all afternoon from bed. Thanks a lot for uploading these. :)
You know those palm fronds don’t taste the best when Les says “it’s quite edible”
I remember back in the day (at least here in europe) when Discovery channel(s) were good (there were discovery history, science etc) I remember that when ever Survivor man was on, I had to watch the episode.
I remember Mythbusters and Survivorman were my favorites, watching reruns and everything.
Les, I doubt you’ll ever notice my comment, but I am so happy you’ve found UA-cam as a place to put your content. I’ve missed watching Survivorman so much!
Hello kid, I am Les and yes I saw your comment, one tip, if you're gonna leave candy bars in the woods, expect a visit from bigfoot.
Bigfoot like Jacks Links beef jerky. Werewolf’s like candy bars everyone knows that 🤣🤣😉😉
Lesley J. Stroud Reese’s or Milky Way ?
@@loudorchen9897 I wish big foot was still just a myth to me. Reality is a trip.
@@loudorchen9897 lol "Les" looks like the kid from Supernatural.
Nice that he actually found some wild meat in this one rather than the typical Starvivorman
I always thought that was the shows one weakness. He never really finds anything to eat, so the secret to surviving is to learn to deal with not eating.
It may be hard to realize but it actually is really hard to get meat in survival situations. Imagine trying to get a fish without a net or a fishing rod and a constant supply of good bait. Every time he manages to catch something large I’m astounded because I know just how hard it can be. We don’t see him catch meat many times because he doesn’t fake the production and stick a dead rabbit or fish into his spear when not filming
@@danieltorrejon4303 right, it’s mostly about bugs when you’re in a survival situation. That juicy protein really helps keep you going. Forage bugs and keep getting water and you can survive a while.
I'd love to see Haughty Hags go into the wild and survive 7 days and I expect a MASSIVE FEAST!
@@danieltorrejon4303 Les has also talked in director's commentaries about the difficulty of hunting and filming at the same time. All of the moving around to set up cameras, talking to the camera, etc. basically alerts everything in the area to his presence. And, if he were to hunt without filming it and suddenly show up onscreen with meat, people would probably call it fake.
"This was once a blues harmonica, and now...it is a spear point."
Or a Christmas ornament, Les.
Not gonna lie I was irritated that he sacrificed the harmonica lol. But It was a necessary evil. Love these shows
Hands down my fav episode, his feast in the end is so satisfying to watch.
Came here to watch just that. There use to be a Les Stroud food "oooh" reaction.
@@lesleyj.stroud1713 thanks for posting these!!!!!
SAME! I remember this episode from so so long ago. glad I finally found it while just beginning to binge the series. With all the struggles he's gone through on other episodes this is comfort watching at its finest. Wish I had some coconuts for a tv dinner to go along..
Same.
@@thenickbw SAMEE, when I rewatched that specific scene it unlocked a whole childhood memory that I rememebered when I used to watch these on discovery channel. I had no clue it was les strouds that i was watching when i was a kid
I had a snorkeling boat leave me about an hour off the coast of Mexico on a reef. Fortunately they turned around after about half an hour. Not fun. When I finally saw the boat again I pissed myself in relief. Totally uncontrollable and I'm sure I'd have shat myself too if I hadn't before we left. I thought I was dead. And not just dead but that I'd endure physical and mental torture before death. Of course the mental had set in immediately upon raising my head and realizing the boat was leaving me.
The Magnum PI episode where he was lost at sea really screwed me up as a kid. It took me a long time to get over my fear of the ocean. And then that happened. Haven't been back in the ocean 25 years later.
Shes friendly brother just know shes in charge not you. I'm a kayak fisherman here in Texas so the coast is my home.
You could probably relate to the movie Open Water.
I got left in Turkey it's truly terrifying lol they came back to me to felt like hours
@@Ryaninsanity what do u mean ?
We're really not meant to be there, a bit like a fish driving a car.
"Don't use the knife, you'll dull it".. (starts chopping wood with knife) 🤣. Love ya Les you're the best💯
On a side note that husked coconut looked like.. WILLLLLLLLSONNNNNNN 😆 🤣
He makes EVERYTHING taste like it’s the best thing in the world I know his wife must appreciate that 😂
"without the will to live, there is survival no where" - Les Stroud. I don't know why I like this quote but I do.
Because it's true 👍
Shroud 🤣
I like it too...its from Cameron DeSutes 1963
powerful quote
Les went from diver to a pirate real quick, tearing the bottom off his shirt, nautical vibes. If only he had some rum
The rum is gone!
but why is all the rum gone?
Do you still think it was gasoline in that red tank? How very naive of you... :D
“Yes. The rum is gone.”
I’m pretty sure that brownish juice was alcoholic, so he sort of did!
Watching Les Stroud on HIS own channel makes me happy. I’m glad I know the money from our views go to him.
Les is a real badass and runs a true survivor show. Not having a camera crew and having to film all on his own is hardcore enough. He also makes the show look very realistic instead of other survivor shows that feature the guy doing crazy dangerous stunts for the sake of the wow factor on camera. Les doesnt have time for that. He focuses on actual priorities in survival.
This episode is my favorite. By far the most ideal place to survive of all the episodes ive seen. And that feast at the end looked absolutely amazing. Makes me wanna go to the South Pacific and camp out on an island there.
@@JoeFarrier-ft3hy not a chance.
@@JoeFarrier-ft3hy it's ok buddy. Tell you're momma to tuck you in extra tonight. As you are obviously 12 years old at best. If not physically, mentally.
He enjoyed hiself to much in this episode looks more like a Les style vacation!!
It wasn't just a 7 day fasting experience in the woods like the other episodes..
It just goes to show, even a guy who's as knowledgeable as Les is still in big trouble if he doesn't have the right preparation.
One of the greatest endings to any survivorman episode. Wish there was directors commentary on this one.
The entire episode is directors commentary
@@dotech4128 Les has recently went back and watched a bunch of his old videos on camera and provided a bit of commentary while doing so.
@@dotech4128 No, it's not.
This was the easiest survival week in the show. Shelter ready right off the bat, plenty of food (even caught a bird, which never happens), no problems with water, easy fire going, no bugs or snakes to worry about. If wasn't for the rain, it'd probably be like a vacation.
And I still would have been dead.
@@reneldobad ikr
Giving him that boat and equipment made it way too easy. Should've gave him nothing but the harmonica lol
Well it's a show and he is acting as a left/lost diver but i agree the crowbar was a bit much
@@redacted4141 I think it's genuinely just the stuff that was left in a shitty old boat they bought, Les has shown nothing but integrity and honestly throughout his filmmaking career, I trust that he wasn't cheating but instead just making use of the things he happened to have
What I really love about this episode is that you show us all the different ways to survive, even having a feast of sorts, but you don't take more than you need. You showed us how to handle a booby, and it served its purpose of educating us and feeding you. Later in the week, you know you will be going home soon, so you don't try to take another. I love how you show respect for nature.
I could not agree more, it's important to know how to handle a booby.
This is 100% because its a TV Show and like you said, he knows hes going home. If it was actually a situation where youre stuck out there and dunno if youll be getting home, you will be taking everything you can, when you can.
Always loved this show! It's the OG of this kind of show. Keep that naked and afraid crap, this is where its at. Your the best, Les.
the ending of this episode always warmed my heart..
This is hands down my favorite episode of all time. It's just nice to see things go well for you generally. That feast at the end is my most favorite memory of watching this show, just a feel good ending.
This one and the Labrador episode are some of the best!
Probably one of my most favorite episodes. It always brings me back
Everyone watching this preppin for 2020 post-apocalypse.
Cut-off Hawaiian shirt with matching do-rag is definitely one of Les's sexier survival outfits.
les stroud and ray mears are for me the real og survivalists.
Ray is fantastic
He made a small guitar/ukulele out of coconuts. Pure legend.
43:40 i love how proud Les is of his tropical food spread, looks really good for survivor man
Les was truly the dad that wasn't around for me. Teaching me to be a man. Thank you.
Same here brother. I never knew my dad and this show has taught me so much about survival. I will definitely pass it on to my sons one day
This is the best episode. So many times Les is struggling to survive. But in this he's very comfortable and it a pleasure to watch. By far my favorite!
Never understood why the rain catch is so far away. It should be in the boat.
I truly miss Survivorman!
Kind of bothered me when he started suddenly pulling all kinds of items out of the ether as well, things that weren't on his initial list. Make me wonder what else was with him.
If the water container broke, him and his boat would get soaked with water
@@MrBottlecapBill what items exactly? In this case every item. He had was an obvious item any diver would have , ie knife survival kit/first aid , dive bag, the only item is the obvious gag he did at the end with the instrument
@@silencegaming3227 I think he's mentioning the multi tool. One tool Les always seems to have.
@@silencegaming3227 uh how bout the gas lmfao. And the mesh bag.
I really like the ending music Les plays on this episode. It seems like the perfect tune to play on a tropical island. Good thing Les "made" such a great new instrument, but skills like those are why he is the Survivorman.
I love how it looks like a kid checking something out with this crooked looking stick then he just smacks the thing with it lol
Best meal in survivorman history
Most likely my favorite episode, theres another one two part where Less camps in a cabin in the mountains and hikes down. I was 11 years old when i started watching this program with another friend of mine in Ontario. later on in life it pulled me out of a large depression. I dont even have the words to be able to express what i feel. Thank you.
Still watching. Point to be made here he also had zero go pro anything. Just plain vhs cameras. Mad respect
les stroad is legend. the only one to actually do it for real
its awesome seeing the footage that wasnt aired originally
The additional footage was in the original airing on Discovery, but I think they cut those scenes out of the reruns to shorten the run time when they moved to Science channel.
@@lesleyj.stroud1713 you really made a new account just to make these comments acting like you are him?
Im pretty sure les wouldnt have create an account only 5 days ago.
@BadDriversOfTennessee in reruns yes they do. The premieres generally have all of the footage together. Perfect example is in the Kalahari episode. The scene where Les discusses the importance of staying hydrated was in the original premiere (I saw it at the time), but was cut down in later reruns (likely for Science Channel syndication).
We all owe this man so much. Way back when, this was the only thing on TV worth watching.
Anyone else always get super thirsty and grab a cup of water when watching these survival shows?
The BEST show EVER.
Man, Les is nothing short of incredible - he made that look more like a vacation than a survival situation 😂
When the screen goes 1 by 1 centimeter ,I just take his word for it lol
Him leaving the second booby alive is one of the realest moments on UA-cam
Man Les is such a badass. I loved these episodes as a kid and it's a joy to finally watch them again. THANK YOU!!
@@lesleyj.stroud1713 say it ain't so...is it really you? It's like finding Bigfoot on UA-cam...only better!
@@lesleyj.stroud1713 Thanks for the reply! Such an honor...been a fan for years and happy to binge these episodes...love the educational life skills and inspired to get into the wild and enjoy nature in turbulent times...I got the Mawson's Will book and looking forward getting to the end! Thanks again! Looking forward to 2021 and your new stuff!
@@lesleyj.stroud1713 Strange can be good! In a world where "normal" doesn't seem to exist. I've watched all your seasons, including extras, and set my reminder for Canoe Camping, looking forward to it! You have a gift and appreciate your content. Thanks for the reply...you're the best!
@@lilyavery8230 thats not him. made a month ago and he doesnt have the highlight if he was real. sorry to dissapoint
@@lesleyj.stroud1713 yea nah man you're a clown.
Hopefully, he'll post the 10 Days episodes again. I really liked those.
“Buckets, not much I can use these for”
*10 seconds later*
“It’s important to know that you can use anything in a survival situation, nothing is too insignificant.”
Les destroying his harmonica did wonders for my survival as well..
I love when he gets a bunch of different wild edibles and then a meat source and sets up his meal that way
I have so many fond memories of this show. I think my favorite is the controversy after baer grills was exposed for sleeping in hotels during his shoots. Really showed how tough and genuine les is
Les Stroud, the GOAT!
His bent spear was the perfect angle for water refraction.. This dude is a legend..nah GOAT
Saw this when I still lived with my dad at home and Discovery was new on the TV... Brings back memories..
I used to stay up late with my little brother watching this on the weekends when our parents would take my sisters out of town to ride their horses. They always left us behind so we watched this show all the time!
That shot at 3:20 is incredible. Light vs Dark kind of vibe lmao.
this dude does it the right way....even all these years later. thanks Les!
I grew up watching Les Stroud. And I still get excited about his shows.
I have been watching this man since middle school, this will always be the true survivorman.
This was one of my favorite episodes as a kid just from the location and his massive feast at the end. So much nostalgia when he started night fishing!!!
BROO SAMEEEE
for real
I agree 💯 on that! This is the best survival show/series.
Also, there's many comments saying "this is my favorite episode as a kid" that are making this 50 year old feel like he needs to be in the rest home, haha!!
But seriously, this episode is one of my favorites along with the Baffin Island and Labrador ones!
Les is Canada's hunky poster child of survival
Les Stroud. You will never see this, but you inspired my desire to explore.
First thing to do: make yourself a pirate outfit
I love when Les is having his tropical island feast 44:26
That Ukulele at the end was haunting yet beautiful. This and the Outback episode are my two favorites of all time
I jus love how humble les is unlike all the others he’s real the rest stay in hotels this man dose it legit
We love you ❤️ thanks for uploading.. the best nostalgia. I didn’t remember or realize how much I loved you as a kid. It made me smile seeing you cut the shirt because I know you said it stupid in retrospect. Cute crop top though.
High IQ move putting all these on YT.
Les you’re my childhood hero. All these years later I’m still watching everything you’ve given us. The adventures you meticulously filmed for us while surviving bare-bones, will stay with all of your countless fans for the rest of our lives.
Being age 50, I'm *way* too old for him to be a childhood hero but his shows have been the best survival shows of any that exist. I'm still watching them now over 15 years later on You Tube. They never get old!
"Can't change tapes"
Wow how the times have changed!
Les I've been a huge fan of this show FOREVER. It was one of my favorites to watch every week and now i can binge watch. Thank you for posting these! This particular episode is one of my favorites!
🤣😂😂 Boss, man, I got to take you serious throughout these videos bro, I can't stop looking at that shirt that shit has me dying, my utmost respect sir I'm just saying!! You're still a legend in my book!!!
I think this is the most I’ve seen him eat in one of these episodes...
"Just whipped this up this afternoon" haha legend :)
This episode, along with the one he did in the Outback , are my favorite episodes. He was literally enjoying his self on this one and in the Outback, he was making those grubs look like sausage links.
My wife and I always recreate your reaction to when you taste the food you get. "Oh man is that good!" Everything you find sounds like its the best food you ever ate. Love the show since day one!
Oh wow I thought I was the only one!! Haha I love his reaction to food, it has stuck with me forever. "MMM" (-.-)
Yes, you are right. Perhaps it's because he has gone such a long time without eating. The only time I remember that he was disgusted by the taste of something was when he was in Papua New Guinea.
Never thought I'd be so stuck and down out that a survivorman episode would make me hungry. Just living on water for days really does something to the mind as well as the body
Cook islands, more like cookING islands!! I've always loved this episode, seafood is my favorite 😍
I never thought I’d see the trusty harmonica getting destroyed lol
The ending of this episode and the Arctic Tundra episode never fail to make me hungry! Thank you so much for putting this show on UA-cam, I was obsessed with it as a kid and it’s awesome to be able to binge it years later :)
100% chance I'd use the coconut shells to run along the beach and clack them together like Monte Python after the coconut meat is gone.
This episode unlocked a core memory. Booby breast. I remember seeing this episode on TV years ago and hysterically laughing at that remark
I noticed the the bone necklace around Les' neck.
I'm guessing it was a gift from the survival expert that helped Les before making this episode, from one survival expert to another. As well as to bring good fortune during the seven days having to survive.
I can only imagine how surreal it must feel to be alone and documenting each survival experience, especially this one.
I'd love to see a directors commentary on this particular episode.
The south Pacific has always been my dream place to explore. It must've been a hell of a theater of war to fight in also. All the secret and undiscovered war relics and places that still exist would be fascinating to explore. It's a beautiful yet scary place.
The Cook Islands are basically one of the best places to get stranded. The rats are edible, plenty of coconuts, no predators, plenty of rain so a lot of fresh water, not too hot or cold, a lot of fish, a lot of birds, a lot of wood, etc.
I wonder how much of his audible "enthusiasm" while eating is for the camera, or if everything genuinely tastes that much better when you're starving
It’s for the camera. He isn’t starving at any point in the show. We actually had to feed him 3 squares a day for insurance purposes
From one Ontario man to another les Stroud you have blessed my childhood with great shows and now I get to relive them all on UA-cam thank you, you started my love for survival!!!
"Ima take bottom of your shirt, and make a head band. Make you a crop top" ..." You couldnt handle my midriff" I have so much respect for Les. Dude is hardcore. He has more balls than me in his pinky toe.
7:35 Ma boi Les lookin’ like a good ol’ orange rockin’ pirate!!
This show is infinitely better than the other survival shows around right now. Naked and afraid is ok but the fact that Les explains everything makes it so much better
Ya naked and afraid is the only other one that feels real as it can be ...they do have camera crews , les is truly alone, but personally the one that takes the top for me is the naked and afraid XL version with a 60 day challenge , and if I’m not mistaken also 2 guys did like 90 days in Africa catching electric eels naked with their bare hands ,knee deep in a swamp with about a hundred different things that can kill and eat you, epic !!! Try it out if you haven’t seen them
@@Shaddow88664 yes I love XL. I do find myself wanting another week or two each survivorman episode. Maybe one day Les will do naked and afraid
Alone is a good series.
@@ilikepushrodv8s210 If you ignore survivors getting preferential treatment, exploiting loopholes that let them bring enough food to outlast everyone else from the beginning, and being given shit behind the scenes then sure.
The little outfit you made in this video makes you look like the main character of a novel
I used to watch your show back when I was a kid, youre awesome
This is basically the only episode where he never mentions being hungry.
or nausea...
its like when he says, "ohhh yeah that's good" you know he's trying to convince himself and when he says, "oh yeah that's even better", he really means its even worse lol
I was going to sleep at midnight before school. Then I discovered Survivorman.
I've watched every single episode YEARS ago and now I'm binging them again. You're a good man Les.
